They were driving in a buggy on the

they came to fork Of the road where
there was no sign board. Which turn

A Solomon.like Decision.

A Rhode Island Justice was called
upon to determine the ownership Of a
brood of turkeys. The flock. consist
ing Of fifteen young ones. was moth
cred by two hens. a white one and a
bronze. and had been running for
quite time over two adjoining farms.
The owner Of the white hen declared
that the turkeys were his. while the
man who owned the bronze hen assert
ed just as positively that they belong
ed to him. The Justice was puzzled. At
last q witness came forward who swore
that he had seen a dog chase the
flock; that at the dogs approach the
young birds dew up into a tree and
the bronze hen took to the woods.
but the white hen turned and gave
battle to the dog. The. justice there
upon decided that the owner Of the
white hen was also the rightful OWL

Princess Mary. the only daughter Of
the king Of England. is taking riding
lessons in quiet corner of Richmond
park. She seems to take to horseback
naturally and Is already an accom-
paished rider.
Therein she differs from her brother,
the heir to the throne. who. like his
father. the king, does not care for
horseback riding. The young prince
prefers the sea to a horse and doesn't
like to take his riding lessons. He has
been known to throw his arms around
his horses neck when the animal b.

Of his liver. is not a good horseman.
His mount is always a gentle animal,

PECULIAR DEATH Of

Flasher, N. D., Aug. 29.-Fate seems
to be cruel to the dwellers around
Dogtooth. Tuesday night another sad
accident followed the one of Monday
when Ole Wagseth, five miles south.
west Of Dogtooth, was killed by driv.
half a mile from home. He was com.
ing home from Mcintosh, and as it
was pitch dark on account OF all the
smoke, he failed to see the road. The
wagon and team must have turned
over several times In the descent.
One of the horses was also killed.
Deceased was hard-working man and
the accident is particularly shocking
on account of following 80 closely
after the one on Monday. The funeral
took place in Flasher.

taA

Ashley N. D., Aug. 29.-lt is said
that the Standard Oil man sold a
quantity of gasoline to Ashley dealers
in the place of kerosene on his last
trip. The discovery of the mistake
was made when the lamps were filled
and lit at Lam1nle's furniture store.
There was no explosion, but the
lamps did not work just right, and
an examination revealed that they
were filled with gasoline. OF course
it was all a mistake, but it was a
mistake that might easily have caused
the loss of lives and the destruction
of an immense amount of property.

and sale of so dangerous a product
as gasoline cannot be too strict or
too rigidly enforced for the public

Chicago, Aug. 29.-The postcard in

Statistics compiled in Berlin chow
that exports of postcards to this coun.
try have fallen from 1000, 900 yearly
three years ago to 250,000,000 last
year.
The Germans ascribe it to the pass

They claim the fad is being dropped

er, say Americans are using more
postcards than ever. Local postohce
