ST. BERNARDs RECOGNIZED.
Grand Forks Catholic School Credited
by Bishop.


Grand Forks, N. D., Aug. 20.-St.
Demands academy, the local Catholic
education institution. opens for it's
27th year on Sept. under more fav-
orable conditions than ever before
and Mother StanisIaus and the sisters
who have had charge Of the school
are looking forward to year Of
growth and development. ST Ber-
nards academy is one of the oldest
institutions in this section and was
established twenty years ago,
when the only other school in Grand
Forks was the old Central building
which occupied a part of the block
where the Central school now stands.
From small beginning and not al
ways under prosperous circumstances,
the institution has grown until now
the sisters have a splendid building
and with the additional improvements
that have been made this summer in
the interior, the school is unusually
we'll equipped to take care of an in
creased number of students.
But the most encouraging feature
Is a letter from Bishop O'Reilly of
the diocese, in which he assures Moth
er Stanislaus that st. Demands acad-
envy is to receive the same official
recognition as the other schools in the
diocese. This action has been expect
ed for some time, but the official
notice was a letter received yesterday
from the bishop which is as follows:
Bishops House, sos Broadway, Fargo,
N. D., August Is, 1910.
Sister Stanislaus,
st. Demands Academy,
Grand Forks, N. D.
Dear Sister Stanislaus
In reply to yours of Aug. Is, the
bishop requests me to state that if
you wish to advertise your school in
The Bulletin, the official organ of the
diocese, you are free to do so. He will
also have your school placed on a par
with all the other schools of the do
cese in the official directory which ap-
pears in The Bulletin each month.
Hoping this will prove satisfactory, l
remain, Very sincerely yours,
M. j. Driscoll,
Secretary.
Some weeks ago the people of the
city had the pleasure of listening to
Bishop OReilly at which time he ded-
icated st. MichaeTs church. His elo-
quent and powerful sermon won for
him a place in the hearts of his peo-
pie of this city, which will assure him
always Of a hearty welcome.

STAPLES COUSIN WAS
SUBSTITUTE FOR LINCOLN
Fagoan Closely Related to the Pennsylvania Who Took the
Place Of Martyred President on the Field -
Of BaHle-Tardy HOnorS

There was no trace or ostentation IN
either. The substitute for Lincoln wenp
right on being useful citizen, as mucn
so in peace as in war.
There was no longer a trace or the
boy in him. The rigors of the battle
field had hardened him, as they hard
ened hundred of thousands of other
lads, into a man Of mature aspect.
There was little of youth left, indeed,
for any OF those thousands who had
become old In carnage, who had been
wounded or, mayhaps, had their vitality
Slapped by starvation in ill-kept pr1s-
ons,
The total lack of ostentation, the abb
sence of all self advertisement, will
make it hard for the future biographer
of Staples During the war he did his
duty, fought with the bravest, and then
came home, where he rounded out mis-

ed to the graves of his ancestors.
His father, the chaplain, survived the
son by quite few years The soldier

and was one of the familiar figures
about Stroudsburg. until about five
years ago,
Long had the grass been green on
both graves before history began TO
make amends for her neglect Then,
all at once. it seemed, the plain marble
slab began to seem sadly inadequate
as remembrance of the man who
had borne musket for Lincoln.
Truly it seems at times that not only
does the good men do live after them.
but that it cannot be smothered. once
the memory of Staples began to be re-
vived, it became like flaming light
that all the land could see,
A Tribute to Prosperity.
The mute marble, to mix SMILES, told
its own story. Finally, this last winter.
a bill was introduced into the house or
representatives by Congressman "A.
Mitchell Palmer, of Monroe county, TO
authorize the erection Of a monumenS
to cost $4,000. So it is not unreason-
able to anticipate that posterity VIII
have cause to remember Staples.
Others from the same family have
during their life times achieved more
than ordinary success. One of them is

Bartellett Frazier Co.: Wheat prices
are apt to sag lower unless demand
becomes large enough to relieve the

DEPUTY WOODS AUTO TRIP.
LaushabIe Accidents Make Trip One
Long to be Remembered.

Devils Lake Journal; Sheriff Belford
took a party of friends, consisting of
Landlord Reade of the Sevilla, Deputy
u. S. Marshal Wood of Fargo, and Su-
perintendent Ziebach of the Indian
school at Fort Totten, out to his beau
tiful Morris township farm last night,
for the purpose of showing them where
the good shooting usually is--in hunt
ing season. On the return home the
sheriff's automobile got to acting up
like an insurgent, and finally refused to
move. The genial sheriff is something
of pusher as well as puller, but all
his powers of persuasion failed to make
the automobile do business. He hated
to do it. but there was no alternative,
so he called at a farm house and tele-
phoned to the city for relief Art
Reade says the sheriff is the gamiest
autoist In town.
Mr.. Wood states that the trip was
one of the funniest he has ever taken
and he doesn't remember ever having
had such a side splitting time. One
laughable accident followed another
and as the members OF the party were
all in excellent spirits and ready fol
anything that might happen, it was q

HILL 0. KS BAN
ON ELIOT'S BOOKS

Chicago, Aug. 2O.-That Charles w
Eliot, president emeritus of Harvard
university, moves on higher plane
than most of mankind" and conse-
quently is not the proper person to
make a selection of books for the trav-
cling public is the opinion of James ].
Hill. &. 49,. .
Mr. Hill, while in Chicago, had a few
comments to make regarding the re-
cent action of the Burlington railroad
in ousting President Eliot's ''flve-foot
shelf of books from it's parlor cars.
President Eliot has so many years
of useful life to look back upon that
the ordinary person cannot look at
him horizontally" said Mr.. Hill. He
most of mankind.
Require Heavy Thinking.
Books that might appeal to Presi-
dent Eliot probably wouldn't cause the
average traveller to enthuse. His books
require too much heavy thinking for
railroad journey People these days
are averse to heavy thinking.
Il know no more about the "fve-foot
shelf than what I have seen in the
newspapers, but / presume the Bur
lington was justified in throwing it
out"
Mr.. Hill lodged queries on other
subjects, making the plea that he was
dry as a bone on matters of current
interest. He arrived from st. Paul in
the morning and left on the Twen-
tieth Century Limited for New York in
the afternoon. Much of the time he
was in conference with Darius Miller,
president, and George B. Harris, chair
man of the board of directors Of the
Burlington railroad.
Many Want Books.
o. L. Dickson, who has gained the
title of literary critic of the Burlington
because of passing judgment on the
Eliot library, is being besieged with
applications for the books.
Mr.. Dickson has received one letter
from an editor of newspaper at Reno,
New, who writes:
1--WE have no library, but we need
one. That five-foot shelf would be
fine addition to a library which now
is being started in our bowling alley"
letter from the Cameron, Mo, Y
M. c. A. says that its rooms are only a
block from the railroad station, and
If the books were sent there travellers
would be invited to make themselves
at home. Public library boards at Ke-
waunee, ILL.,, Centerville, Iowa, and
Salem, Iowa, also have asked for a set

Miss Lcneye Escapes Mob.

London, Sept. 21.-Only a strong
escort OF police prevented Miss Ethel
Clare Leneve, the alleged accessory
-.ho-ouppoood- nau-Iot or beiie FL
more Crippen, from being mobhed
today as she made her way from a
closed cab to the Bow street police
court. Hundreds of people, gathered
about the building, began hooting and
kissing Miss Leneve the moment she
stepped from the cab. The two officers
who accompanied the girl from Hol-
loway Jail summoned the score OF
police that were guarding the entrance
to the police court and the squad
formed a Gordon about Miss Leneve
and fought back the belligerent spec
tators until the prisoner was inside
the court building. The demonstra-
ton against Miss Leneve was the re-
suit of testimony at Mondays in
quest OF Mrs. Emily Jackson
that Miss Lencye had told her that if
Mrs. Crippep were out OF the way, DR..
H. H. Crippen would marry her.
Miss Leneve almost collapsed at the
first show of the hostile demonstra-
ton, and by the time she reached the
court room the services of a physician
were required to quiet her nerves.
She sat through the hearing pale and
excited. The excitement attending
Miss Leneve's arrival was so great
that Crippen, who was brought to the
police court in black maria, was
able to slip into the building un-
noticed. To guard against a repe-
tition of the outbreak. the police force
about the building was doubled.
DR.. H. H. Crippen and Miss Lcneve
we're today bound over ito the Central
Criminal Court (Old Bailey to be
tried at the October term for the
alleged murder of Belle Elmore Grip
pen, the doctors wife.

Another standpatter. Defeated.

Minneapolis, Mimi, Sept. 2l.-Rep-
resentative James \. Tawney, one OF
the strongest stnndpatters in Congress,
and the man whom President Taft up
held in his now famous Winona speech,
was defeated in the congressional pri-
maries for denomination as representa-
tive from the first Minnesota district,
by Sidney A. Anderson, insurgcnt. O..
NJ. Leaving, campaign manager for
Anderson, says today Anderson's ma
iority will be more than 1000.
Winona, Mimi, Sept. 2l.---Tawney's
campaign managers at noon conceded
the nomination OF Sydney Anderson by
from 1000 to 3, 500 majority. Tawney
headquarters were closed and managers
left, convinced that Tawney was beaten.
This conclusion was reached with Ill
precints out of 27l in the district mis-
sing. Most Of Tawney's strongholds
had reported, and missing returns are
expected to increase Anderson's lead.
