MoNARCRS ON VIEW.

Washington Post: A political phil
osopher saw nine monarchs riding in
the obsequies of Edward VII. from
Westminster to Windsor, and has
leaped to the conclusion, expressed in
The London Times, that the trade of
King is looking up in the world and
that the principle OF the republic is
becoming a decadent. This inference is
somewhat distantly drawn from the
fact that the British masses that lined
the route of that funeral march were
actually civil in demeauor toward the
imperial and royal guests of the
mourning nation. Hence it is to be
assumed that the trend of political
thought in the world has been re-
versed, and that the wave OF democ-
racy is receding among its peoples.
But all this is to ignore the advances
made during the past half century by
that very democracy. The monarch who
declared ''L'etat, c'est moi' would be
even more astonished today than if
he had come back to this earth two
generations ago. Even in the space
since the Franco Prussian war such an
institution as the Reichstag might
amaze a reviyified German. Even the
Car has to consider the Duma. The

s. M. Brost of Fallon, N. D.; G. M.
Brewer of Chaseley, N D.; Adam Nagel

Superintendent of Hospital - Rev.
c. A. Bremen of Big Stone, S. D.
Rev. Bremen will make his home
at Bismarck. His household goods
are already here, and his family ar
rived last night.
The hospital has had a very sue
cessful year for it's first year. 1t
admitted 1,1O8 patients during this
period, and 5s5 operations were per-
formed. There were fifty-eAght births
at the institution.
Before the board adjourned, the
committee on resolutions reported in
part as follows:
Resolved, that we, the stockholders
Of the Bismarck hospital do hereby
express our appreciation and gratitude
to our efficient staff of doctors, to our
trained nurses and those who are in
training. and also to the domestic help
for their faithful services in the dis
charge of their various duties"
The institution has done a world of
good in the community, and has done
much for the city. The future looks
bright, and Bismarck should feel proud
that it has such an institution within
her portals, that does so much good
toward alleviating the sufferings of the
human race.

Went
TO SHOOT Dogs;
KILLED HIMSELF

Minot, N. d., July 4.--Word was re-
ceived in the city Of the accidental
death of r. N. Adams, a we'll known
Lynch farmer. Adams rose early Sat
urday morning and told his wife that
he was going to shoot some dogs that
had been bothering him. He took his
22-calibre rife and Mrs. Adams heard
him pass through the house onto the
porch. A minute later she heard the
report but thinking nothing of 1t went
on with her work.
Later when she went to call him she
discovered his body stretched out on
the porch a bullet wound in his head.
1t is believed that he tripped and fell
as he passed through the front door
and the gun was discharged. A jury
was impanneled and brought in a YER
dict of accidental death.

Ward ELECTION

Minot, N. D., July Am effort will
be made to have the votes of Burke
and Renville counties thrown out in
case the supreme court decides that
Judge Templeton acted without proper
Jurisdiction.
Figures are already being obtained
in both new and old Ward on different
candidates where the vote has been
close and it is generally understood
that an effort will be made to have the
votes thrown out If possible.
The majority of attorneys in the city
do not believe that the effort will be
successful inasmuch as the two coun-
ties were not organized at the time OF
the primaries.

CHEAP BURIAL
FOR A RECLUSE
FOSTER COUNTY REcLUsE HAD
5000 CASH ON BODY AT
DEATH.

Darlington, N. D., July 4. - In the
| overalls pocket of Frederick Bauer
the eccentric Foster county bachelor
who died last week, was found a
check for $1,000 dated last November
a certificate of deposit for $575 and
| 500 in cash. The check was not
found by the undertaken until the old
clothes Of the dead man were about
to be thrown on a fire. Bauer had
been noted for years as a man who
would NOT accept a check in payment
for stock or grain and how 1t came
that he carried the check given him
last November by the Great Northern
Townsite Co. for the land that con-
stitutes the townsite Of Waneta Tin
Dewey township is a mystery. The
check had never been endorsed or pre-
scented for payment. In addition to the
above assets, 1t is said Bauer has a
meat jar full of gold in the storage
vaults of one of the McHenry banks
When the money was placed there for
keeping, it is claimed that Bauer in
sisted that the identical pieces of mon
ey were to be returned to him upon
request. The jar contained several
hundred dollars.
Bauer was one Of the most eccen-
trio men who ever lived in the coun-
ty. He was always shabbily dressed
lived alone in a shack and had little
to do with neighbors. In company
with two brothers he came to Foster
county and squatted on land in Dew
ey township in 1855. One of the
brothers died some years ago. The
cd
Guilty at Eyota, Mimi, and notified of
his brothers death. In reply he said
to bury Baeur as cheaply as possible.
saying the old man probably had suf-
ficient money to pay cost of inter-
mept.
Bauer was a bachelor and, aside
from the brother in Minnesota, it is
not known that he leaves any rela-
tiyes. BY many 1t Is thought that his
property was willed to a Chicago
church society, the deceased having
been affiliated with a denomination
known as Missouri Lutherans. One
of his brothers left his estate to a
church society.
The deceased was about So years of
age. He had been in poor health for
several months. suffering from Bright's
disease, He refused to have the serv-
ices of a doctor. Some months ago
he was removed from his shack by
neighbors and taken to house where
he could receive better care. He died
with his clothes on without confiding
his secrets to anyone. The day before
he was stricken, he told those about
him that if anything should happen to
him they should notify Henry Bauer,
but he failed to tell them where the
brother could be found Interment was
in the Bethlehem cemetery, north of
McEIenry.

THE TRAVELLING
LIBRARY OF N. D.
FARMERS OF THIS STATE MAY
ENJOY ADVANTAGES OF THE
DWELLER IN THE PROGRESSIVE
CITY BY TAKING ADVANTAGE
OF THE TRAVELLING LIBRARY.

zone Of the great advantages of liv-
Ing in a progressive city is the free ac-
cess to the public library" said DIR.
Max Bait Of the A, c. today. Every
citizen may go to its reading room,
help himself to the books and maya
Z zines displayed there, and read to his
hearts content on whatever subject
interests him, without costing him a
,ocent. Or, if he wishes, he nav draw
q one or more books and take them to
his home. Surely a great privilege, if
you consider that no intelligent man,
in any walk of life, can get along now
adays without books.
Until recently only the city dweller
had this privilege. But today the farm
er has practically the same advantage,
for he can have the library brought
to his very door, without costing him
but a very few cents. He can read
during the long winter evenings not
only books of fiction, biography, his
tory, travels, etc. but also the latest
and best books on agricultural sub
jects-books that have been carefully
selected on such subjects as dairying,
poultry, stock Judging, farm machinery
and many others.
sg How can one get these books, you
will ask. Very easily. Form a club Of
six farmers, who would be Interested
Idn such reading, elect one your secre-
tary, let him send the names Of these
six farmers to the Public Library Com
, mission, Bismarck, n. D., and ask for
a farmers library. He will receive in
inn
containing fifteen of the best books
along agricultural lines, together with
"A copy of the rules governing these
so-called travelling libraries. Each
farmer in the community can then
draw a book that suits his fancy, take
it to his own home and keep it for two
or four weeks. Then return it to the
lsecretaryof the club and draw another |
book. After six months the entire case
of books is returned to the library COM
mission at Bismarck, and another a |
different travelling library may be Sc |
cured. The only agreement is that all |
the books be sent back to Bismarck in |
good condition. That is why these six
farmers act as guarantOrs that none
Of the books be lost or mutilated. The |
only expense to them is the freight,
which on a box Of books like the one
described, amounts to about 25 or 80
cents. Thus every farmer in the state
of North Dakota is given an oppor-
tunity to read all the books he wishes
at practically no cost.
Besides the farmers library there
Is also the general travelling library,
and this, as already stated, contains
twenty-five to fifty Of the best books
on all sorts of subjects. In every COL
lection of this kind there will be books
of interest to the farmer, his wife and
his children, and the conditions for Sc
curing it are the same as those for the
farmers library, Henceforth, in North
Dakota at least, no one living in a rural
community need envy the city dweller
his opportunity of reading all he cares
to without any expense to him. A
library adds immeasurably to
the attractiveness of the farm home"

The ELOPEMEN1
MOVING PICTURE SCENE MET
SERIOUS OBSTACLE AT THE
500 LINE TOWN.

Darlington July 4. - 1t took Just
four attempts for an innocent coun-
try girl to climb out of a four story
back window in the bright sunlight
and crawl down a ladder, preparatory
to rushing to waiting 500 train
and making her elopement with her
North Dakota lover to their new home
in western Canada. And all because
long haired individual without SEN
timent insisted that the poor girl
must keep her skirts down in North
Dakota breeze while making the de-
scent on the ladder.
But once down, with the assistance
Of a lady of mature years, pretty Sybil
Vinton was due for more trouble. She
caught the 500 train just as 1t left the
station but her ardent lover was left
in Darlington.
All Of which was staged in Caring

cal people and illustrating motion
pictures by using local scenes along
the 500 line. The elopement part of
the love story that is now being pic
tured took place at the G. H. Day.
idson residence this week. The ac-
tors and actresses were there in full
costume and makeup. After the
sensational escape of the girl from
the home the picture people all piled
into buggy and went to the 500
tracks to put on the speeding train
scene and the separation of the lovers.
At other points along the line other
views of the progress Of the elope-
ment will be made until the couple
are finally found comfortably settled
in their new home on the broad acres
of Canada.

Pierce County Voters Decide In Favor
of New County Building at RUGBY.

Rugby, N. D., July 4.-One of the
most interesting items to the voters
and taxpayers of Pierce county, was
the vote for the bonding of the county
for the building of new courthouse
and Jail, and the courthouse and
Jail will be built because a majority
of nearly three hundred voters of the
county have declared this to be their
wish:
The result of the election in this
particular direction does not come as
a great surprise as the Immediate
need Of the new building has been
recognized for some time.
The building committee will now
get to work on the bonding PROPOSE
ton, and sketches will be submitted
by the architects for consideration.
Those interested in the project are
anxious to see the actual work of
building under way as soon as pos
sible.
