Open WAHPETON
ARMORY With BALL
LOCAL OFFICERS OF NATIONAL
GUARD RECEIVE INVITATIONS
TO OBLIGATORY BALL AND Elk
ERcIsEs OF NEW MILITARY
EDIFIcE AT WAHPEToN.

military ball, the first of the sea-
son in North Dakota, will open the
handsome new armory at Wahpeton
at the dedication ceremonies of the
edifice Friday night. Invitations to
the function have been received by the
officers of Company b, N. ID. N. G.. Of
Fargo, and it is expected that a large
representation Of the local national
guardsmen will be in attendance.
The new armory, which has Just
been completed, is one of the most
modern and complete in it's appoint
ments and equipment of any in the
northwest and exceeds any similar
building in the state. 1t is the pro-
perty of Co. / of the North Dakota
regiment whose officers will be hosts
of the opening celebration and dance.
One of the most Respondent and
spectacular sights is a military ball
and the one to be attempted Friday
night at Wahpeton is expected to rival
with any given at a regular army post
Of the first class. All the men on the
floor will appear in dress uniform.
1t is not known among the officers
OF the local company of the national

SEED HAS GONE
LIKE WILDFIRE
THOMAS GRIFFITHs HAS DIS.
POSED OF WILD RICE SEED
TO sPORTSMEN.

Grand Forks, N. D., Sept. 21.-If
sportsmen of the state are not we'll
equipped with wild rice seed, it will
not be the fault of Thomas Griffiths,
the local member of the state game
and fish board. The story of his
securing some so pounds of wild rice
seed from the Indians at Bagley and
Ebro, Mimi, brought in requests by
telegraph, telephone and mail, literally
swapping Mr.. Griffiths. For this
reason he wishes 1t distinctly under
stood that the last of the wild rice
goes out this morning and further re-
quests will be in vain, for the time
being at least.
Some 100 pounds Of the wild rice
went to Devils Lake, where the sports
men of that section have taken a big
interest in the planting of the seed.
In the planting Of the wild rice seed,
problem has arisen which the Dew
lis Lake sportsmen are solving in n
rather unique manner. 1t has been
noticed that the ducks often dive for
Wild rice seed, and for this reason the
planters have figured that some pre-
caution Is necessary to prevent the
ducks from eating too much of the
seed. For this reason the seed is be-
ing enclosed in clay or mud balls
when dropped into the lake, the sup
position being that the casing OF clay
will not dissolve for week or two
and when it does the rice seed will
be covered in such a way as to be in
accessible to the ducks. This method
of planting the seed is being used
around Devils Lake and probably
could be used to an advantage In ether
parts OF the state as well.
John Duis has charge of the 100
pounds that Is to be planted at Dew
lis Lake and sweetwater lake. DR..
Wheeler is planting some at his duck
farm near Stump lake. Geo. Duis has
charge of consignment for Churchs
Ferry, Devils Lake and Michigan. Mr..
Grifffths sent fifty pounds of the seed
to Captain Main in the Turtle Noun
tains and II is certain that the captain
will see that the seed is given proper
treatment. Among the others who
have received twenty FIVE pound con-
signments of seed or will receive their
consignments today, are: William Col
Inns, Bottineau; C. Holbrook, Pleasant
Lake; .. A. Thompson, Mimic; c. A.
Gilbert, Hannah; w. A. Veil, Perth; J.
w. Olson, Minnewaukan; o. Urness,
Niagara; Steven Collins of this city,
who will plant the seed along the
Mouse river; l.. Deichert, who will also
plant some along the Mouse river; ID.
T. Armstrong, Willow City; S. r. Fin
ley, Harvey; A. NJ Iverson, Rugby;
Clarence Parker Minot; Herman Win
terer of Valley City, president of the
game board, has received a consign-
ment Of $50 pounds Of the seed, which
will be distributed in the southern
part Of the state.

TO SPEAK HERE
THE FAMOUS SOCIALIST LEADER,
WHO HAS BEEN THREE TIMES
A CANDIDATE FOR PREsI DENT
OF THE UNITED STATES WILL
LECTURE IN FARGO OCT. 8.

Eugene v. Debs, three times candi
date for president on the socialist
ticket, will give a lecture at the Far
go operahouse Saturday evening. Oct
8. The appearance of Debs in Fargo
will be the launching of the active
| campaign work of the socialist party
in North Dakota. He will speak at
Crank Forks Oct 9, at Devils Lake
Oct. 10 and at Minot Oct. IL.
Mr.. Debs is the leader in the social
list party and his coming to Fargo and
North Dakota will be a signal honor
| shown to the city and state. He is the
| only man that has ever headed the
socialist national ticket. He has been
candidate for governor of Indiana.
and has served in the state legislature
Of the Hoosier state, being sent from
Terre Haute, which Is a strong manu-
featuring city
The socialist leader was grand Sec
rotary and treasurer of the Brother
hood of Locomotive Firemen from
1873 to 1892, when he organized and
became national president of the
American Railway union. He first
came into the limelight in this state
when he led the A. r. u. strike on
the Great Northern railroad in the
northwest in 1893 and brought the
strike to a successful issue.
In 1894 Debs again came into promi-
hence when the great Pullman strike
was declared over his protest. After
the strike was declared he led the
sympathetic strike, which resulted in
his being imprisoned by Judge Wood
of Chicago.
The address to be given by former
presidential candidate in Fargo will be
under the direction of the local social
party. Mr.. Debs will probably speak
on The Judiciary while here.
The afternoon of Oct. s, the local
members of the socialists party will
hold a big reception for their leader
in Union hall to which the public will
be invited.

THE SHOESTRIyNG.

A BOUT as long as a string
~ Is an Indefinite expression I'M
n less IT refers to shoestrins.
a shoestring is six-fourths
long when you do not specify the
length required. Further research
would most likely answer the question
six-fourths OF what7
When d man buys a new pair OF
shoes the strings in them are just
long enough. When he buys the next
pair Of shoestrings they are too long.
Tho strings that come with the shoes
are fOur-tOurths long. the next pair
VIII be six-fouTths unless you ask fot
ana can get four-fourths These
lengths have to do with mems high
shoes. There Is not the same trouble az
to low shoes
Some shoestrings are very strong and
will wear long time, but they VIII
turn brown, Others will not wear so
long but viii retain their original
blackness. The strong strings that
turn brown are OF linen or very
strong cotton. The others are Of mixed
nbers that hold their color.
Many persons prefer the less durable
shoestrlng not only because IL holds
Its color but because, being Of a less
hard FIBER IL stays tied better than the
other. A few OF the millions " shoe-
strings wearers know how 90 tie a
bow knot that won't come united. The
method can be explained without a
diagram
Instead Of tucking the how over be-
fore drawing the knot ti-ht, tuck II
twice over A fiddle string used for
a shoe lace would not come united
If the knot were made In that way.
This knot can be united in the same
way as the other, by pulling at tho
ends
The hooks above the eyelets were
very profitable invention, but not for
the inventor, the shoe manufactures
or the consumer. The story Of that
invention has been printed many
times. II II were not fairly accurate
IL would have been contradicted.
