considerable means until ruined by the

best friends the beggars Of Paris ever
had, and to obtain funds for helping
them he became a systematic thief. He
used to frequent the fashiona bic streets

by night, dressed in ragged clothes, he
dispensed the spoils to the first beg.

the practice without being suspected.
and it was by pure chance that he
eventually did fall into the hands Of
the police. When his lodgings were
searched sufficiently empty purses were
found to fill large packing case, and
it was made clear that he had stolen

A news dipatch from Florence, Neb.,
Which appeared in the Sioux City
Uowa) Journal, the Minneapolis
Journal and number of other pa
pers, contained very interesting
piece of news. The item is reprinted
in full:
While fishing through the ice in the
Missouri river, Roy Nelson hooked a
catfish weighing SO pounds. In dress
ing the fish, to his urprise Nelson
found a gold hunting case watch in
the large intestines. On the inside of
the back was this Inscription:
"Presented to " r. Perry by his
friends at Bismarck, N. D., June s.,
1902"
Although no one attempts to solve
the problem, of the watch being found
in the catfish, it is generally believed
that at Bismarck there was a " R.
Perry and that, losing his watch out
of his pocket, it was swallowed by
the catfish that for years had been
carrying it around, in the meantime
having swan from Bismarck to Flor
ence, a distance of more than two

Tho Preparation Of Parchment.

Parchment is the skin Of sheep or
other animals prepared in sheets to
render them fit for being written upon.
The heavier parchment, used for drum
heads, is made from the skins Of ass
es, older calves. wolves and goats. All
these are similarly prepared. The
skin. being freed from the hair, Is
placed in lime pit to cleanse it from
fat. The pelt is then stretched upon
a frame, care being taken that the sur
face is free from wrinkles. The flesh Is
pared off with circular knife. after
which it is motstened, and whiting
spread over it, Then the workman,
with large pumice stone, rubs the
skin. He next goes over it with an
iron instrument and rubs it carefully
with pumice stone without chalk. FL
nally the skin is.gradually dried, tight
ening being occasionally required.

might be styled the new corners,
may be regarded As purely legendary
They know we have a prohibitory
law. They are not familiar with its
origin, its nature, its development, of
the character of its provisions.
A short history of the so-called pro-
hibitory liquor law may be appropri-
ately given at this time. The terri
tory Of North Dakota passed its coun-
ty local option law in 1887, under the
provisions Of chapter 20. of the laws
enacted by the legislature during that
year. The law was approved March
II, 1889. The question was voted up
on in the several counties of the then
territory in November Of that year,
when the prohibition policy was sub
mitted in place of the license sys-
tenn in several counties. Prior to that
period two or three cities had pro-
hibition under special charter. Tow
er City in the porthern part of the
territory (now in the state of North
DakOta) was one rf those cities. 1t
was and is the homo of Hon. NJ. H.
kif-a veteran of the civil war, a
former resident of Maine and one who
has always insisted that the principle
OF prohibition is not only morally
l light, but workable as a government
al policy.
Trainers 0! Prohibition Clause.
Judge Pollock proceeds with con.
siderable detail on the fight in the
legislature which was made in behalf
of the prohibition cause and names
the committee which framed the pro.
hibition article in the state constitu-
ton. The committee comprised Rob.
ert NJ. Pollock, then of Casselton,

state and who helped write the his:

notice is given the first governor of /

New Minister" is the hero of the
play and still he does not take up the
time Of the production to the ex-
clusiOn of the other members of the
company, each one having an impor-
tant role. This company is not built
along the lines of some of the COM
panies that are sent to the west-one
star and lot of sticks-but each in
dividual member has been selected
with an idea as to his or her fitness
to the part they are to play and the
result is an extraordinarily we'll bal
anced company of competent players.
The show has had a great success in
the east, and what is more to the
point, has been making a big hit
wherever it has been shown in the
west. There will be only one per

the way to the coast, where the play
