A negro United States marshal
walked up behind citizen of Edge
field with a warrant, saying, Il
have got you" The reply came from
a Colts Navy and the negro was
stretched dead. For many years be-
tween family feuds, and riotous dis
turbance, brought on by the political
condition Of the State, a condition
which the high-spirited people OF the
county refused to submit to, be the
odds what they might, Edgefeld al
most lived in state Of war.
Gradually things changed for the
better; slowly the pendulum swung
back. Amid all this riot, carnage
slaughter and upsetting Of things
one clear voice sounded always for
Righteousness: one man was never
afraid: one heart beat true to the
eternal verities. The man was James
r. Bacon, sans puer ct sans re-
proache, a ehevalier strayed from
the old heroic ages.
His works, now given to the world
speak for themselves. Thev will be
found a source of perennial delight
Some Of the actors about whom he
wrote have passed away, many OF
the scenes have changed, and young
people Of the present may not un-
derstand some Of the illusions, but
there will be always enough that
anybody, can understand, for the
! things he touched on belong to hu-
man nature. which although many
sided and Of divers hues, remains
practically the same, as in the dawn

At this late day in the worlds
history there are comparatively few
people who have not outgrown the
old distrust Of banks that was en-
gendered by the days Of wildcat
currency" before the civil war when
state banks issued bills. and when
everybody was Of necessity a sub
scriber to one of many publications
known as bank note detectors. In
those days one might take bank
bill! at its face value to-day. and
tomorrow il might be worth any
where between zero and par. and
the stability Of many banks was
in keeping with the character OF
their bills. There was good reason
then for stuffing ones money in old
shoes, bureau drawers. under the
carpet. etc. But in these modern
times the percentage Of loss by bank
failures is so small thanks to more
intelligent business methods and
more careful regulation and examin-
alton by law as to be almost neg
ligibe quantity. Once in while.
however. some one who will not trust
the banks has his story told in the
newspapers along the lines of the
following Associated Press dispatch
Of recent date from San Antonio,
Texas
Because Henry kunzman. Of this
city, would not trust his money to
bankers, he is out to-day 81. 200, the
savings of practically a lifetime.
Kunzman,a blacksmith living on the
outskirts Of the city, preferred to
be his own banker. and laid aside
something for rainy day in an old
trunk. While Kunzman had gone to
saloon near by to get glass Of
beer, a stranger entered the black
smith shop and appropriated the
money. The last poor Kunzman saw
of his money was the bulge it caused
in the pockets Of the thief. Ener-
getic chase was given by him, but
the thief left him at the post by
boarding trolley car. So far. the
police have not found the man, and
kunzman is revising his opinion on
the advisability Of people being their
own bankers.

To the Editor of the Record:
Dear Sir: The weather had been
fine here for the past few days up
to TO-DAY; but now it is very windy.
This seems to be the time of the
year for conventions in this part Of
the country. At Kansas City ran
into the implement dealers conven-
ton. embracing delegates from
three states: Kansas, Oklahoma and
Missouri. Here in Omaha l find the
lumbermen's convention. l try to
make myself universal delegate,
and always put in a good word for
North Dakota.
will now give you a little on the
auto-fy game. l used to think /

and just how much lubricatinp oil is
necessary to keep the speedometer
from burning out the tinker bear
ings and the fubdub from interfer-
ing with the flimflam. sure
thought | was right up to the best

it's back to the gray-beards for
yours truly.
A week ago l went to bed early
in the evening. respected and re-
vered as a man of foresight, and |
awoke at the far end of the stretch,
with the gang crossing the wire.
While had been dreaming of Doc
Wolverton making the trip to Hazel
ton in sixty seconds-or minutes
which was it he said? some other
sucker off toward the setting sun
was flying up about five thousand
feet in the air on an automobile with
wings. Think of it! A man flying
a distance of nearly mile straight up
in the atmosphere! Goodness me.
If ! ever get that far up, I'll never
return to the wicked old earth, but
keep right on few miles farther to
the New Jerusalem.
am reading up on biplanes, aero
planes, monoplanes and other gaso-
line insects. Believe me, here lies
the future greatness Of the gasoline
engine. To think that it will soon
be possible to put a pair of wings
on your gasoline motor and go sail
ing off into the azure blue, forget
ting the prosy old earth and the un-
paid laundry bill, spending the day
on the silvery side Of the gauzy
floaters! Think of it! One living in
Linton will shortly be able to arise
at 6 O'Clock. step into his speedo-
plane and drop over to Bismarck for
his "mornin's mornin' in less time
than it will take to answer the drug
gist's questions after he gets there!

The recent pardoning from the
North Dakota penitentiary of Till.
imprisoned many years for crime
which pretty nearly every one now
believes he did not commit, has d.
rected public attention to the fact
that there is an old man in the peni-
tertiary Of this state. who has been
there many years. and who was sent
there on as fiimsy evidence as was
given in he case of Till. We refer
to Kent This man was tried in
Mandan for the murder of his wife,
and was convicted on the evidence
of a wretch who. when cornered,
confessed to killing Mrs. Kent. and
who afterward died in the peniten-
tiary at Bismarck. He claimed that
he was tool in the hands of Kent.
and that the latter had persuaded
him to do the deed. 1t was believed
by many. however, that this story
was a falsehood, and that he had
killed the woman because she had
resisted his assault on her. But il
was shown that he was defaulter
in some agency business that he had
been transacting. He was captured
and taken back to Mandan. he hav-
ing run away as he claimed. to
escape the punishment for other
misdeeds before the murder was
committed. He was tried, and. as
we now remember it, sentenced to
death. The grave doubts in the
minds OF many people who heard or
read the evidence was such. how.
ever. that the capital sentence was
committed to life Imprisonment. il
the word committed" can properly
be used in describing change from
death sentence to one which fixes
Imprisonment for life as the penal
ty. The known and actual muir.
derer's evidence convicted Kent,
coupled with the fact that he was in
hiding when the murder was COM
mitted But he has always declared
that his flight was caused by the
knowledge that he was to be arrest
cd for some pccuniary peculation
There was not the slightest motive
for the murder shown at the trial
Kent and his wife got along agree
ably, as was clearly shown by thei
Mandan neighbors. But he wa
without money. and = what wa
worse for him his reputation TO
honesty was bad. and his friend
during the trial were few and "a

A Mysterious Disappearance.

j. T. Louderbach went to Minot
recently and bought. among other
things. hundred pound sack of
flour. On his way home the sleigh
struck a rough place in the road
and the flour was thrown from the
seat to the ground. Mr.. Louder
bach turned his team around as
soon as he could do so, and noticed
that a woman whom he had met
had picked up the flour. She was
driving her team at a swift gait,
and Louderbach gave chase. The
faster his ponies went, the faster
the woman's team went; and, al
though she was a mile and half
ahead Of him, he kept up the rapid
pace for about four miles. Seeing
the woman drive up to her house
and go inside. he went to the place
and asked for his flour, but was told
that no flour had been found.

1t is somewhat startling to read
of couple Of fellows out in Day
ton, Ohio. who few years ago
were considered incurables and can
didates for the house with the
upholstery. but who have turned out
to be the great original king bees of
air splitters. | understand that
they have hobnobbed with docks and
bookcases and other blue-blooded
people even higher up, over in
Yurrup. until now they are expect
ed to call all the kings and queens
by their front names. and that they
intend to quit that dear old Dayton,
that until recently never thought it
had brace of highflyers within the
city limits.
It's funny about the scientific
havoc made by this flying game. We
had always been taught that any
substance heavier than air would
have mighty little luck when trying
to lift much weight from the
ground. Then come the Wright
brothers and violate all the set rules
of air resistance. All of which goes
to show that long-headed chap
with a hammer and cold-chisel can
sometimes do great deal more in a
practical way than man who has
his Uranium stuffed with science.
Here is new sport promising new
sensations. As have never ascend
ed higher than the Montgomery
Ward tower, and then in an eleva-
tor, can only wonder how it feels
sailing up into the air at the rate Of
sixty miles an hour. Naturally one
would suppose that it would some
what resemble the sensation of fall
ing at about a hundred and twenty
miles an hour.
1t will be but question of shor,
time until the road race and the au
tomobile will be things of the pas,

ed, and the big contests will be from
Linton to that cloud over there anG
