We are still optomistic in regard to

now, always have been, and will continue
to be for all time to come. OF course it
is yet too early to estimate With any de-

by the freeze, but the opinion of con-

Paw Paw confirms our report of last
week, that there will be at least fifty

An Old Mans lesson.

We met a poor old man today who
is dependent on his relatives, and
they don't like the enforced task of
taking care of him. 'Had l saved
10 cents a day during my younger
years" he said, 81 would have been
Independent. I might have saved a
dollar a day during all my working
career and not stinted myself in the
least" This old mans experience
is worth thinking about. The trou-
bic with American men is that they
waste dimes while looking for a mil
lion dollars. At the end of life they
have neither the dime nor the mil
lion dollars. s.-Atchison Globe.

A Visit In Sections

When Harriet Beecher Stowe was
alive Mark Twain, who lived near
her in Hartford, had a way of run
ming in to converse with her and her
daughters, often in a somewhat neg
igee costume, greatly to the dis
tress Of Mrs. Clemens.
One morning as he returned from
the Stoves sans necktie Mrs. Glenn
ems met him at the door with the
exclamation; "There, Sam; you
must have been over to the Stoves
again without necktie! It's really
disgraceful the way you neglect
your dress" Her husband said
nothing, but went to his room. A
few minutes later Mrs. Stowe was
summoned to the door by a mes
senger, who presented her with a
small box neatly done up. She
opened it and found a black silk
necktie, accompanied by the follow
ing note;
Here is a necktie Take it out and look
Gt it, l think / stayed half an hour this
morning. At the end Of that time will you

SENSE OF DIRECTION.
How Bees Are Able to Find Their Way
to the Hive.


The directive sense which is pos
sessed by bees is the object of re-
searches made by NJ. CASTOR Bon
nier Of Paris, and he seems to prove
that bees possess a special sense like
that of carrier pigeons.
Bees can fly for two miles from
the hive and are then able to return
after gathering their supply of
honey. Langstroth and others sup
pose that vision comes into play and
that bees can see for a great dis
tance and can also note objects on
the way so as to find their path.
Others, with Dadent, suppose that
the bees are guided by the sense of
smell and that they can smell flow
ers at one and a half miles.
The author makes experiments to
prove that bees can return to the
hive without using either sight or
odor AS to sight, he takes bees to
a distance of one or two miles from
the hive in a closed box. They al
ways fly back to the hive when re-
leased. The same is true when their
eyes are covered, so that sight is not
essential. As regards odor, expert
ments seem to prove that bees per-
ceive odors at only short distances.
When a needle dipped in ether is
brought near the head of the bee it
shows signs Of perceiying the odor,
but not so when the needle is placed
back of him or near other organs.
Besides, when the organs Of smell
(antennae) are removed entirely the
bees will return to the hive. NJ.
BONNER makes the following expert
ment: At 600 feet from the hive
he places a supply Of sirup, and the
bees soon find it, proceeding to and
fro to the hive. Such bees he marks
with green colored powder. He then
places a second supply of sirup at
the same distance from the hive,
but spaced at twenty feet from the
former Other bees are now en-
gagged in the to and fro movement
to this point, but these are not the
same individuals as the green
marked bees, who are still working
on the first supply, and he marks
these in red.
We thus have two distinct sets of
bees, and we see that they can dis
tinguish two directions which form
a very acute angle. We seem to
have here a special directive sense
which does not reside in the anten-
nae, but probably in the cerebroid
yanglia Other facts may be cited
n evidence Of the directive sense Of
)ees.

The OLD PIRATES.
ley We're cowards, Pilferers and
Traitors to One Another.

~ WV TWRhNIfs
The average pirate does not de-
serve his romantic reputation, even
for ferocity. Pirates were brutes
unquestionably and, like Captain
Kidd when on the coast Of Malabar,
would exercise a "pretty severity
ln order to extort confessions from
prisoners whom they suspected of
hiding goods. But the universal APP
plication Of the maxim that dead
men tell no tales and the dispatch
ofall prisoners "by the plank" were
mot practices of theirs, 1t was only
at The end and when the last pirates,
the broken men Of the Napoleonic
wars, we're fighting their last fight
on The south coast of Cuba that des-
peration made them utterly merci-
less. And when we say fight the
word must be understood with a
difference. The pirates we're out
con the plundering account" and
they rarely made a serious fight.
Indeed, the essential cowardice of
mankind is nowhere more visible
than among these oppressors of un-
armed traders and black villagers.
Men who must have known that
surrender would infallib]y take
them straight to the gallows laid
down their arms to any deccntly ap-
pointed force without a blow. Every
man hoped that he would save his
neck, whatever happened to the
Others. At the worst they put off
the evil hour.
Two Of Avery's crew who were
condemned to death petitioned that
if they must be hanged they might
at least be sent "to suffer in India"
They may have hoped for escape on
the way, but even if they were un-
able to get off it was better to be
sent to die some months hence in
India than to 90 to Execution dock
tomorrow. They clung to their
miserable lives to the last moment.

PROF. SULLY IS
NOW ON TRIAL
FAMOUS CRIMINAL ASSAULT
CASE or HYPNOTIC cLAIRvoY-
ANT is BROUGHT UP FOR
TRIAL IN DISTRICT COURT
HARD WORK TO GET JURY.

Prof. r. Emmett Sully, clairvoyant
reported hypnotist and mindhealer
charged with criminal assault in the
first degree, was brought into the
district courtroom for trial this
morning. The Sully case Is the last
of the criminal matters on the cali
endar of the November term of court
and Is attracting much attention. The
courtroom was well filled this morn
ing with interested spectators who
followed the proceedings Of the first
trial in the fall.
The clairvoyant's attorneys are the
same as defended him at the prelimi-
nary trial in Judge Roberts court in
September, Judge Edward Engerud,
of Engerud, Holt & Frame, and Tay-
lor Crum. Mr.. Crum conducted the
examination In the first trial. with
Judge Engerud acting in an advisory
capacity
Selecting jury was the chief fea-
ture of the mornings session. 1t was
an exceedingly difficult task, as many
of the jurors first drawn were preju-
diced against the defendant. A mum
Der expressed themselves as being in
healers, or clairvoyants. Just before
noon, however. the panel was com
pleted and the counsel for the de-
Tense stated that they were ready for
the examination to commence.
The mother of the little girl who
is alleged to have been the victim of
the clairvoyant's reported abuses, was
the first to take the stand, though she
had not much time to testify, owing to
the announcement of the noon recess.
The little girl herself was present
and will be called later.
At first it was reported that the
nature of the Sully case would prob
ably necessitate it's being held behind
closed doors, but such an order has
not been issued so far and many are
of the opinion that unless it becomes
too fragrant 1t will continue in open
court.
According to the allegations of the
complaining witness, who is only Ii
years old she resided near Casselton
and was brought to this city to have
an operation performed by DIR. Bald
win, for appendicitis. 1t is claimed
that the. girls brother lived in Fargo
and was a friend of Professor Sully,
who had advertised himself as a
mindhealer. Instead of calling the
physician, the case was given to
Professor Sully, who during his
treatments is charged with subjecting
his patient to abuses Of criminal
nature.
