Sunday was Mothers Day through
out the Nation and it was fittingly
and appropriately observed in the
churches of Smyrna. This beautiful
thought was vitalized by a young
woman in living memory of her moth
er, who died five years ago, and the
appropriateness of this memorial
ceremony, has caused it to spread
until it has taken root in the hearts
of the people of almost every State,
and even in far-away Japan. The
emblem worn was white carnation,
chosen because OF the color of purity
and because it is long enduring and
typical of flial love for a mother,
the purest love known. Deep in the
hearts of all is this mother love i'm
planted, and men of affairs often bark
back to the days when, fonded in a
mothers arms, they learned the first
lessons in the school of life. Often
IN hours of temptation and need, the
loving advice of a revered mother,
long since passed to her reward, has
come to them like a cry out of
the past, urging them to renewe
effort in the path of duty and again
teaching the lessons they once learned
at her knee.

The Law and Order Society of Duck

Would be violators who think this

excellent work when several cases

liquor cases will he waged with more
Vigor and determination than ever.

The death of King Edward VII,
which occurred at Has last Friday
7. ght, May 6, deprives the world of
de of its most conspicuous and most
useful citizens. A man who as Prince
and King had lived under the
gaze of all Nations for nearly 50
years was necessarily well known.
The world abounds in both fatterers
and revilers. But there can be little
doubt that the measured and matured
judgment of history will give Edward
VII a distinguished place both in the
line of British monarchs and among
the worlds leaders in craftsmanship
and civics during the closing years
Of the nineteenth and opening years
of the goth centuries. The unpre-
eedented length of the reign of his
predecessor caused Edward to spend
the greater part of his life as Prince
of Wales; in his so years possession
of it he associated himself with that
title to far greater degree than any
Of his predecessors had done, and il
can unhesitatingly be said that he
invested it with dignity and i'm
portance which it had not possesse.

BASEBALL TODAY.

Today is the big day at Mandan in

double-header played at the Mandan
diamond. At 1870 the Bismarck
Toozes will meet the Mandan second
team, and at p. M. the fast team
from Glen Ullin will cross bats with
the Mandan aggregation. The games,
both of them, will be interesting, and
number of people from this city are
planning to 60 over to witness them.
There was to be special train run
over, but at a late hour last night the
local officials had heard nothing about
it, so it appears as if the deal for the
extra train has fallen through.
