MOTHER EARTH HERE TO STAY,

Old Mother Earth is here to stay
The final earthquake, the lake of fire
and the other Biblical terrors anent
the end Of the world are feeble myths,
discredited and scorned by the pro-
fessors of the University of Chicago
Divinity School.
The university experts come forth
with assurances of this old worlds
permanency in an editorial entitled,
The Passing of Apocalypticism. " in
the current issue OF the Biblical World,
published Saturday by the university
press. The last day" is all fairy
tale, say the theological experts, and
the timorous may cheer up.
The Angel Gabriel will have no
chance to blow his horn, nor will the
tumults and professions of the iudg-
ment day take place as advertised,
according to the view taken by the
divinity experts. For, say the pro-
fessors, the cosmic cataclysm which
has been cause of nervous tension for
centuries, positively will not occur.
Historical criticism has Quashed the
biblical bug-a-bOo.

FOUND SKELETONS OF PLAN
TAGENET KINGS.

a dispatch from Paris says dis
covery Of the greatest interest to Eng
Iishmen has been made in the old Alb
hey OF Fontevrault
The skeletons of King Henry ii OF
England, his wife Eleanor, his daugh-
Ter Joan (who married King William
OF Sicily and King Richard Occur de
Lion have been found in the crypt.
There can be no doubt whatever OF
their genuineness.
Although the Plantagenet kings were
known to have been buried in the
abbey. and although the tombstones of
Richard Occur de Lion, Queen Eleanor
and Henry III, with their full-length
effigies, are on view there, the graves
themselves we're never found, and it
was believed that they had been desc
Grated in the revolution OF 1889 and
and the royal remains scattered
The old abbey became prison in
1904. 1t has since fallen largely into
ruins, and NJ. Magne, OF the fine arts
department, was recently instructed by
the minister for fine arts to restore 1t
as far as was possible to its original
condition.
During the work in the ruins OF the
crypt NJ. Magne, had wall pulled
down, and found behind il an arch with
gold cross and coat-of-arms, with
several gold leopards inscribed on it.
On the walls were the names Richard,
Alienor" eleanor and Henri"
NJ. Magne gave orders to dig, and
the four graves were found. The
skeletons lay from east to west.
As soon as the restoration is COM
pleted the skeletons OF the Plantagenets
will be placed under the beautifully
carved tombstones in the abbey.

BALLINGER IMPEACHED.

THAT Richard A. Ballinger has not
been true to the trust reposed in him as
secretary of the interior; that he is not
deserving OF public confidence, and
that he should be requested by the
proper authorities to resign his office. F"
The foregoing sums up the findings
Of the four democratic members
OF the Balinger-Pinchot congressional
investigating committee, which were
made public in Minneapolis yesterday.
The republican members issued no
report ofany kind bearing on the con-
troyersy.
An independent report was given out
by Mr.. Madison, the insurgent republic
can from Kansas, which declares also
that Mr.. Ballinger should not be re-
tanned, that he was an unfaithful
trustee OF the peoples interest, an
enemy OF conservation" and that the
charges OF Clifford Pinchot should be
sustained.
These findings will be printed and
filed with Congress.

ARE YOU PROGRESSIVE?

If so. you cannot fail to realize
the great necessity of organizing
a real live commercial club in
Beach.
Remember, in union there is
strength. Let US all forget for a
while our personal, petty, selfish
differences and strife and let us
bear in mind but one single word
Success.
Nature has been kind enough to
bestow very generously upon US
many of it's blessings. Beach is
the metropolis Of our Goden VAL
ley, where all its great output Of
production and prosperity is center
ed and concentrated. Do you see
any truth in the wise old saying,
''Make hay while the sun shines?"
Then let US all get together at
once and let US form a great COM
mercial organization for the pur-
pose of increasing, strengthening
and promoting the present and
future welfare Of our city and the
country tributary; to preserve its
prosperity, to invite and encourage
all modern, legitimate enterprises,
industries and necessary institu.

Another Proof
Of Big Business
Northern Pacific Puts on Switch
Engine at Beach to Handle Big
Freight Business at This Point

The freight business at the local
yards has increased so rapidly that
the railroad company has found it
necessary to put on a switch engine
and crew at this point. The work
is too heavy for the local freight
to handle and it became necessary
to put on the engine to do the
switching and relieve the local of
this work. rhe engine was put
on last week and also does the
switching at Wibaux and Sentinel
Butte, putting up for the night at
Beach. In a short time the work
here will demand the entire atten-
tion of the engine. Beach is the
fastest growing city in North
Dakota and is dong more business
for its size than any town in the
United States, we believe.

To Be Erected
Emrys Lloyd is Granted a Site and
Will Build Seventh Elevator at
Beach, More to Follow

Emrys Lloyd of Wibaux, was in
the city the fore part Of the week
with Supt. B. 0. johnson, of the
Northern Pacific, looking over
ground for an elevator site, and
before leaving gave out the in
formation that he had secured one
east of the Standard Oil Co.'s
tanks. He also informed US that
material for the elevator which
he has decided to build. will be
shipped here at once and work
commenced.
Mr.. Lloyd has been in the grain
business at Beach or Wibaux for
the past four seasons. He bought
on the track the first season that
grain was marketed at Beach;
the next year for the Chase Eleva-
tor near the old mill, then with
the Minnesota & Western and last
year he has been interested with a
local farmers elevator at Wibaux.
Mr.. Lloyd's will make the sew.
enth grain elevator at Beach and
we understand there are still one
or two applications in for elevator
sites.

Steps are being taken by the
Norwegians of Eastern Montana to
hold a grand celebration at Glen
dive on Norway's natal day, the
18th of May, 1910. The celebration
will be held under the auspices
of the Young Peoples Society of
Glendive, and the proceeds will be

mittees have already been appoint

giving the participants royal

from North Dakota and Montana
is expected to be present.
Speeches will be delivered and
