eoop STORY ON MEEkER.
Two Reasons Are Given for o. w
Meeker Wearing Auto Goggles.

Two Reasona Are Given for D. w.
Meeker Wearing Auto Goggles.
st. Paul Dispatch: p. w. Meeker,
assistant secretary of the senate at the
last session, is wearing pair Of auto
mobile goggles as big as pair OF sau-
GERS. He does not drive car. but
there are other reasons for the strange
garb he is wearing.
Under the goggles are a pair OF
beautiful black eyes. It is said. although
Meeker does not lift the goggles to
exhibit his lamps" Neither does ne
like to tell how he got them.
When pressed for information, now
ever, he explains that Sunday evening
he took a walk out Rice street way
where he happened upon man who
was beating his wife. Meeker inter-
fered, with the result that the WIFE
heater turned upon him, and, after get
ting three or four men to help him
gave Meeker some good hard blows
Besides the black eyes, he has couple
OF cuts from fragments Of his glasses
which were broken.
At the capitol, howerev, It is Cos
siped that a certain member Of the
senate figured in the affair, and tina
lit did not happen on Rice street, bu-
downtown In st. Paul. In the CLOSING
days, according to the story that i
told, Meeker had some differences witt
| one Of the senators, and when thil
senator met him for the first tim,
after the session blows resulted.

cupID's DAY TO-DAY.

Five couples applied for a mar
riage license this morning of Har-
old Sorenson, clerk of the county
court, establishing new record
for cupid's day. The lucky parties
were Harvey S. Nichols of Fargo
and Minnie e. Hayes of Moorhead;
Wilmer ]. Morris OF Wheatland
and Florence A. Lathrop of Far
go; Louis p. westland Of Fargo
and Mary c. Kunza of Perham,
Mimi; Bert Raymond of Pike
Stone, Mimi, and Florence e. Ray
of Fargo.
The fifth couple was refused a
license because of the fact that the
bride-to-be had just been granted
divorce Monday and, according
to the law, she must wait ninety
days before being married again.
One of the couples getting a IL
cense said that they had tried it
before, over in Minnesota a year
ago, but at that time were refused
as they were considered too young.

Chicago. April 27--Wheat The mar
ket opened weak for the May delivery
and steady to shade higher for the
deferred months, after which sharp
advance took place in tie former with
the interests friendly to that month
leading in the buying. The market
continues to show lack Of outside In
terest. Outside markets developed a
draggy tendency. The uncertainty re-
garding the outcome of the May de-
livery renders opinions rather value
less and we again advise our friends
and clients not to trade in that month
in making new commitments. AS for
the more deferred futures, we con-
slider that from legitimate standpoint
they should be sold on all good rallies.

The Cleminson trial attracted un-
usual attention throughout its course.
The pathetic figures of the aged faith

lief in the innocence OF DR.. CIeminson
were constantly in mind. Circumstan-
tial evidence, however, was so strong
and pointed so directly to the doctor

DAINTY SCARFS FOR SUMMER |
OF All Kinds and Descriptions, and
Generally More Elaborate Than

Marabout and ostrich scarfs are
more elaborate than ever.
There Is no end to the possibilities
that lie within the fuffiness of the
feathers, combined with folds or shir-
rings Of chiffon.
An edging of black and white mara
bout completes a bit of feminine
daintiness that would add charm to
any costume.
A fancy bow Of cerise velvet COM
bined with chiffon in the same shade
has long ends that would be especial
ly effective on a white frock.
The most popular scarfs have bodies
of 5hirred chiffon with edgings of
marabout that either match or are in
striking contrast.
They are so simple In design that
any woman even passably clever with
the needle can fashion one in an after
noon.
A muff to match Is smart acquisi-
tion and the set looks well with an
evening coat or for theater wear.

LATEST IDEAS IN HOSIERY
Smartly Dressed Girls Have Returned
to the "CIock"-Silk Stockings
Always the Proper Thing.

"Clocked" hosiery, such as was
worn years ago, has become the new
est fad for smartly dressed girls. All
the stockings for day wear show this
embroidery up the side. sometimes in
self-colors, but more often in one con-
trasting. Red or white on black is
beyond doubt the best.
This form of decoration has already
displaced openwork for the carefully
dressed woman. 1t has finally been
decided that lacy effects are not good
for the street, but that they should be
reserved for the house and evening
wear Therefore, elaborate as Is the
hosiery for dress use, it is very plain
for street wear.
Severity in out OF doors dress has
led to adopting an entirely different
quality of hosiery for that time. Girls
who can afford to, wear silk stockings
always. but they have now at least
three different qualities. When walk
ing. the thin transparent, though
plain, kind is given up.
This is now reserved for the house

LOST FAITH IN WHITE MAN
Eskimo Tested Efficacy Of Telephone
Scheme, and Realized He Had
Been Deceived.

An interesting story is told regard
ing the efforts of an Eskimo to con-
struct telephone line. The Eskimo
came into possession of piece of wire
of considerable length and never hay-
ing seen wire before he asked Profes-
sor Mcmillan of the Peary north pole
expedition what it was and what 1t
was for. He was told that the white
man strung it on poles stuck in the
ground and voice talking to an in
strument at one end could be heard at
the other end. After some search the
next morning the Eskimo was found
to be engaged in telephone construc-
ton work of his own. He stuck some
sticks in the ground and hung his
wire on them. He held one end OF
the wire to his mouth and talked TO
it at the top of his voice. Then he
ran as fast as he could to the other
end and held the wire to his ear with
the expectation OF hearing his own
words repeated.
When he failed to hear any sounds
the expression on his face revealed
his opinion of his white friend.
