A great deal of stress is laid upon
the charge that Governor Haskell is
being prosecuted in the town lot cases
on account of political reasons, but,
the court and jury will probably seel|
to ascertain whether he is guilty or
not. In fact the public is interested
not in how the charges originated but
whether they are true or not.

THE MILKY WAY.
A Hundred Million Stars Clean In
That SiIvery Scarf.

A Hundred Million Stars Clean In
That SiIvery Scarf.
The census Of the starry sky is con-
cerned almost entirely with the Milky
way. The number Of stars not con-
nected with it is negligible. But when
you look at the Milky way the idea Of
numbering it's stars seems the dream
of a mailman. 1t stretches all round
the sky. Its extent is so unthinkably
immense that science has never under
taken to measure it. and the magma
ton could not grasp the figures that
such a measurement. If it was possible
to make 1t, would involve.
Yet that whole enormous eXpanse of
space occupied by the Milky way is so
crowded with stars that they make
upon the eye the impression Of sill
very scarf wound round the brow of
the universe.
1t requires telescope to see them as
q broad zone Of glittering points In
stead Of an almost uniform band of
wilderness in the armament.
In some places they are more thinly
scattered, so that, as you gaze through
the glass, you almost think that, with
Infinite patience. you might count the
number included in a space as large
as the face Of the moon.
But In other places they seem to be
packed together like the sands Of the
seashore. They stretch away over
thousands Of square degrees Of space.
hanging in great festoons, spreading
out in vast banners, where billions
upon billions Of cubic miles seem to
be filled with stars thicker than the
flakes in q driving snowstorm!
There are begemmed knots in that
starry scarf so rich that the eye is daz-
zled and the mind confused by the
spectacle which they present.
Yet science, although it shrinks from
trying to estimate the space which
they occupy. has succeeded in forming
q fairly correct enumeration Of the
stars Of the Milky way.
The most extravagant estimates do
not put the number at more than 3OO.-
OOOO 900, and the most trustworthy and
probable make them third less.
A hundred million stars, then. Is the

velous effect of innumerableness they
produce we begin to appreciate what

Among the customers Of Il tea store

Third REGULAR
MARKET DAY
A LARGE CROWD TAKES ADVAN.
TAGE OF THE SALE
PRICES,
G. Huber Won Prize for the Best Oats
and Lynn Sperry Had Best Wheat
On Exhibition.

The third market day of the season
was a decided success as far as 1t
went. There was large number of
people in from the surrounding com.
munity and from the neighboring
towns. The stores were having spec
ial sales on their goods, and the mer-
chants we're kept busy during the
day.
The Bismarck band through some
misunderstanding, did not give the ad.
vertised concert, but the error will
not occur again. The crowd gathered
in the market grounds at I 80 and the
sale went off smoothly.
Gottleib Huber received first prize
for having the best bundle of oats
on exhibition, and Lynn Sperry was
given first money on the best bundle
of wheat shown on the grounds.
The next Market day will be on
the first Saturday of August and al
ready plans are being made to insure
it's success and to give the farmers
of the county chance to be enter
tanned in the city and to take ad.
advantage of the market day sales.

Tho Salt Charm Failed.

Some three years before the Franco
German war broke out Count Secken-
dorlf accompanied King William l. OH
his visit to Napoleon III. and was
present at the celebrated dejeuner Civ
en- in the Pavilion de Diane ut Fon-
taineblcau King William, who was
sitting next the empress, was asked
by her to pass the salt. and in comply
ing with this request he threw little
salt over his shoulder. Upon the EN-
press exclaiming, "Why do you do
that?" the king explained that in his
country It was the custom to do so
when passing the salt to ward off bad
luck and any chance Of a quarrel. The
empress in prcttily turned speech at
once replied. But surely there is no
danger of anything interfering with
our friendship" In less than three
years the Germans had crossed the

THRILLING CAPTURE
BY BISMARCK POLICE
MANY SHOTS FIRED AFTER THE
FLEEING TEAM BEFORE
THEY STOP.
Chief Mcdonald and Deputy Sheriff
Barnes Seize Eleven Cases Of Beer
From Mrs. Thompson.

Saturday afternoon the residents of
the bottoms were treated to as
thrilling a race and capture scene as
has been seen in the city for many
a day.
Deputy Sheriff Barnes and Chief of
Police Mcdonald saw a dray starting
toward the south side of the tracks
with load of beer aboard. They i'm
mediately climbed on another dray
and gave chase. The first drayman
did not think anything about it when
he saw another dray starting out, un-
til he observed the officers. He then
whipped his horses to a gallop and
tried to make a getaway. The second
drayman followed suit and the two
teams pounded along at fearful rate.
The police saw the leading driver COM
mence to kick the cases off his dray
and called to him to stop. He only
whipped the horses the harder how
ever
The officers then drew their revol-
vers and opened fire on the dray load
of beer. A few shots had the desir-
ed effect, and the man halted his
team. When the officers drove up to
him they found three cases Of beer
on the dray These they promptly
seized and then compelled the fellow
to turn back and pick up the ones he

MANS THREE DUTIES.
A Good Husband, Good Father and
a Good Neiohbor

1OCO NSISUOOTs
I have made code for my own guild
ance which may interest you. hold
that a mans first duty is to be good
husband. which implies, of course. that
he ought to marry and then make his
wife believe, if he can. that she has
been the most fortunate of women.
It isn't easy-but. my, how it pays!
He must be lover. husband, son and
even father by turns and occasionally
just nobody-he must get clear off the
earth. But when he comes back
A mans second duty is to be good
father. which implies. of course, that
he ought to have children-adopted. if
necessary He ought to be to them
the standard by which all other men
are measured and found wanting. be-
cause he is their daddy and they love
him.
A mans third duty is to be good
neighbor, to carry his share, no matter
how small or how great it may be. of
the community's worthy enterprises.
to share the sorrows and the joys OF
those around him, to make his home
q real asset to his community.
After a man has done these three
things, If he has time and means and
strength. he can and should think in
wider circles. But the man who does
these three we'll is doing more than If
he contributed millions and neglected
these three. The man who neglects
his wife or his children or his neigh.
bors, no matter what other apparently
great things he may have done. will
hear Gabriel's trumpet very family If
at all on the morning Of the great day.

DODGED THE DUELS.
Voltaire's Disastrous Attempts 20 Make
De Rohan Eiuht.

Literary men in tluclnG times and
countries have always been rather
prone to set into trouble from which
only Il passage ut arms could cXtricate
them. Noliaire had ut various turns Il
number of uuels on his hands, but
counted among them two which did
not reach the expected climax.
One Of these was his affair with the
Chevalier de Rohan Chabot. who goad-
ed him to the point Of fighting and
then. instead Of giving him the salts
faction demanded, had him lured into
a coach and soundly whipped with
switches by some hrelings concealed
there
Voltairc, after trying in vain to in
duce one of his noble friends to back
him in his further pursuit Of his en-
envy, appealed to the municipal author
tiles in these phrases: II humbly rep
resent that l have been brutally as
saulted by the courageous Chevalier
de Rohnn. aided by six cutthroats,
behind whom he was bravely posted.
Ever since that time 1 have sought to
restore not my honor, but his, task
too difficult
AS this public affront failed to pro-
duce any effect, Voltaire hunted out
the chevalier one evening at the thea
ter and flung insults in his face there.
Rohan at last consented to meet him,
but contrivcd to let the news reach
other members Of the Rohan family,
who had Voltaire arrested and thrown
into the Bastille-New York Post.
