RICH MANS son GETS
WE'LL DESERVED 80 DAYS
Millionaire Would Not Keep Bunko OH
spring From WOrkhOuse.

Pittsburg, December 23.-Pleading
to be sent to Jail instead of to the
workhouse, because his hair will be
cut at the latter institution, Freder-
lex Brokaw, amateur actor, runaway
bunko man, and son of S. II. B. Bro
kaw "a millionaire lumberman, of Seat
tie, Wash, was sent to the workhouse
for 80 days by Police Magistrate j. j.
Kirby because his wealthy father
would not come to his rescue and pay
less than $100
Brokaw says he is thoroughly re-
pentant. He was arrested few days
ago for hiring a swell suite of rooms
in big hotel and calling up Pitts
burgers and borrowing money from
them upon the plea that he was strand
ed and his father would repay them
He says he will repay the men he
bunkoed when he gets out of the
workhouse.

WITHOUT THE STING.

Though today is Christmas day, it IS
in reality but beginning of the real
holidays Tomorrow is the real
Christmas celebration day, as Christ
may day proper falls this year upon
SUNDAY. The suppressed exuberance
of youth-and that of the grown-ups
for that matter-which does not find
expression today will be all the more
manifest tomorrow.
The people of Americas will cele-
brate today and the other Christmas
holidays in a safe and sane manner, as
they have always done. That allows
for the many different things that one
likes to do at Christmas without be-
coming a nuisance to ones neigh
bors. The small boy naturally en-
Joys a rousing amount of noise, with
the other good things that Christmas
brings. So long as moderate care
and thoughtfulness are used, youth
may have it's fling without endanger-
ing itself or the property and lives Of
others That's the way the Americas
celebrants should spend their holt
days.
There is no danger that laughter
should end in tears as the result of
some Christmas mishap that brings
sorrow to a home, unless uncontrolled
enthusiasm takes the bit in it's mouth
and VIII not heed the warning of
moderation. Let every one join in the
good cheer and happiness of the holt
days in a way that will leave no
after-stings to ones self or to others
There's no reason why one should try
to crowd ten holiday seasons into
one-if you ever want to see another
one That feeling on the morning af-
ter Will convince you of that, if you
don't believe it now.

SOCIETY GIRLS TO WEAR
FLESH COLORED TIGHTS
Objected TO Going in Tableaux With
Bare Limbs.

ODJecteu 10 Going ia laDIeAuX WIN
Bare Limbs.
Philadelphia, Pa, December 22.-
There will be charity ball here and
the historic tableaux will be shown,
but not according to historic facts
Francis Hartman Markoe, director
of the tableaux, was forced to retreat
from the stand he had taken that there
would be no tableaux unless they
were historically correct. The direc-
tor had decreed that the society men
and women of Philadelphia 1900
should appear in bare limbs and un-
clothed feet. The director said that
this was correct historically.
There was fearful furore, and as
a result a meeting of the charity ball
tableaux participants was held. A
vote was taken, and while far rom be-
ing unanimous it was decided chat the
women taking part in the pageant be
allowed to wear fiesh-colored stockings
and dancing slippers.
The argument which brought this
happy solution about was that ting
stage at the ACADEMY of Music is
extremely cold at this season of the
year, and should the pageant be pre-
sented true to historical facts there
might be danger of several men and
women taking cold. The men who
will take part in the pageant made a
protest against appearing in short
doublets and tights, but they were
overruled.

KAISER ARGUES WITH
PROFESSOR ABOUT CHRIST
Quotes Scripture to Prove That The
Messiah is God.

quotes Scripture to Prove Ihat Ihe
Messiah is God.
Berlin, December 22.-An example
of the kaiser's logic in religious mat
tiers is published in the Journal, a
paper of Bavaria. 1t relates con-
versation about the divinity of Christ
between William and certain pro-
fessor. The latter, according to the
kaiser, tried to persuade him that
Christ was not God The kaiser ask
ed the professor if he ever said TO
his students: 81 am the vine and
you the tendrils rhe answer was
"no."
"Do you believe" continued the
kaiser, that any professor before you
ever said such thing?"
NO." said the professor.
Good, then," said the kaiser. "Since
no teacher can or will so speak as
Christ spoke, believe that Christ was
not only man, but the true God"
The paper adds that the conversa-
ton lasted for upwards of an hour
The quotation referred to by the kali
ser was written by him textually in a
Bible which he presented recently to
the garrison church at Strasburg. Tie
passage ends: whoever remains in
me and in him produces much fruit
inasmuch as without me We can dc
nothing"

THE SUNSHINE OF
A CHEERFUL FACE

We sometimes go throughout the day
with something that we feel
Around us like a gracious spell of light
heart radiance steal;
Our cares seem but shadow flown
and troubles float away.
Like foam upon the silver stream that
sings where children play.
We do not know just what it is but
yet we feel its grace
The presence all around us of the sun
shine of face.
Oft when at dawn We start away with
dim forebodings swung
Above our heads as if sword of dan
ger DER us hung
Ere many hours have passed in toll
our fears have taken wing
And in our soul we feel the call to
whistle and to sing.
A strange, mysterious, wonder-change
we know has taken place
Perhaps we've felt the sunshine shed
from some ones cheerful face
Sometimes the way seems dreary and
the outlook filled with gloom,
L III ohuOChly ctlOllSo thC way CA1S OIOS-
SONS burst in bloom;
We hear the song birds singing once
again, or think we do
And overhead the skies are bright
and tender in their blue.
1t puzzles us little while the mystery
to trace
Until we catch the answer in the sun
shine of a face.
No doubt that many others go as we
do day by day
Upon the road of trembling and of
troubling of the way;
The shadows hang above them and
they have dared to enter in.
Perhaps it is forgetting our own trou-
bles for awhile
To help our fellow workers with a
helping hand and smile
Brings in this world the wonder that
seems every gloom to chase
The radiant, tender sunshine of a
bright and cheerful face!

TURTLE MOUNTAIN COUNTRY.

Those familiar with soil conditions
in the Turtle mountains claim some of
the most fertile land in the state lies
in that section of North Dakota. The
greatest difficulty is the fact that
much Of the territory is remote from
railroads-and still worse the country
roads are so bad it is almost impossible
to get crops to market.
Denizens of that section appear to be
satisfied with a small share of those
things thought to be absolutely essen
tial to comfort. They are not as en-
ergetic as some people who are more
fortunately located as to highways.
The people of Bottineau and other
sections OF the state want state aid in
securing highway construction. About
the only way the state can participate
is by lodging the issue and building
experimental roads. Direct appropri-
ations for highways from the state
treasury could not be made for the
benefit of any particular locality.
1t is claimed one good highway or
perhaps two could be constructed, east
and west through the mountains be-
tween Bottineau and st. Johns. If this
was done the settlers could easily con-
3truct lateral roads. ..
If the Legislature has any money to
spare next session ii might be profit
IDLY invested in the development of /
his region. There seems to be no
loubt about its fertility.
There are some beautiful lakes in
he mountains, the most famous being
lake Metigoshe, near Bottineau, and
fish lake near st. Johns The latter

WORTHY INSTITUTIONS.

There are many worthy objects de-
serving contributions from Fargoans
during the holiday season - many
places in which much good can be ac-
complished and many hearts gIaddened
with a little money.
Among those that appeal most di-
rectly to Fargoans are the North Da-
kota Children's home, the Catholic or
phanage, the Florence Crittenton
home, the Associated Charities and the
Salvation army.
Money donated to any Of these in
situations cannot but accomplish good.
If you are able, remember them all.
If you feel can't do that. select one or
two that most strongly appeal to you.
In any event don't forget to do
something. 1t will make your heart
lighter, will make the Christmas sea-
son seem more cheerful-and will do
You as much good as the recipients.
