SWITCH WAS OPEN
Near Accident in Stark County-In
vcrtigatiOn Being Made

vcrtigation Being Made
Dickinson. n. D., Dec. 23-The east
switch at Lehigh had evidently beer
tempered with. 1t was found stand
Ing open by the crew of east bound
train No. 6 which passes that point
about 1880 p. nj. The switch lock
had been removed and thrown away
as was also the target lamp and the
switch thrown SO as to sidetrack any
west bound train. The attention of the
engineer on No. 6 was attracted and
his train stopped as soon as possible
but not in time to save running over
1t. 1t is very fortunate that it was
not No. 1 or No. 5 as a bad accident
would doubtless have occurred. No
other train had used the siding, which
fact eliminates the chances Of the
switch being left open by train
crews, and the s%ectioni men claim ev-
erything was In proper condition when
they passed hat point in the evening.
Railroad officials are investigating with
a view to Furnishing the guilty parties.

The Melody That

I Ac a recent convention of the
Associated Music Dealers nj
Publishers of the United States,
one of the Oldest dealers called
attention t. the enormous sales
reached by a popular sons: in this
country compared to what are sold
in. other countries, He claimed
that iii Germany, Eng and nd
France, fifty to seventy-five thous
and copies considered a large sale
while in this country publishers
do not consider song popular
whose sales do not run from two
hundred thousand to half q million
copies.
Comment was also made on the
enormorous sales reached by high
class ballads, such as The Gar
den Of Roses, Sing Me to Sleep
and MY Rosary. AS Per the
usual custom. the committee on
new songs called attention to the
fact that the writer's of two of the
songs mentioned had written an
other entitled, THE HOUR
THAT GAVE NE YOU" and
that the publishers, Jerome II.
Remick & Co., would be pleased
to have it rendered by the COM
posers. Messrs Dempsey Al nd
Schmidt were invited to entertain
the association. which they did by
rendering some of their old songs
and concluding with the new
ones. THE HOUR THAT GAVE
ME- YOU. Tho enthusiam of the
assemblage was unbounded, and
the advance orders for the song
received by their pub fishers
warrented the publication of the
largest first edition ever known
in the musical world. TIL E
HOUR THAT GAVE Me YOU
thus marks new era in the soag
line, for the melody is catchy and
haunting that IL will sweep the
country. We append the

hour that gave me you.

Eskimo Widowers.

In civilization it is said that q wife
does not always add to her husbands
ease or render his life more suppOrta-
BILE, but upon the barren grounds the
worst of wives would be better than
none.
There, among the heather tribes, If a
mans wife dies-provided he is not
a polygamist, in which case, says the
Wide World, there is less need for
hurry-he often marries again within
the week.
Even the Christian Eskimo widowers
are with difficulty persuaded by the
Moravian missionaries to allow six
weeks to elapse between the death and
remarriage. On the very day after
the six weeks have lapsed the hunter
presents himself with new bride and
asks that the marriage service may be
speedily read.
The reason is not far to seek. 1t is
said in civilization that "a woman's
work is never dOne," and far more is
that true of the helpmate of the saw
age and the semi-savage, the woman
of the barren grounds or of the ice
edge. She makes and breaks camp,
cooks, cuts up and carries to camp her
husbands kill. She dresses the skins
of deer and seal.
She is responsible for the fashioning
of footgear and clothes. On journey
she often paddles the canoe, and on
portage she carries heavy load. In
fact, it is easier to write down the du-
ties not expected of squaw than
those which by immemorial custom
she must perform.

Always put off till tomorrow what
is wrong to be done today.
Heat your knife before cutting hard
soap.
Wet a cloth with a bit of soda on

your kitchen floor.
Jelly from berries picked wet is al
most sure to mold, and doesn't jell

Put few grains of rice in your salt
shakers. They will break the Jumps,
gather the moisture and make the salt
come out freely.
Glue pieces of felt or pieces of old
rubbers to the bottom of the chair

floors and less noise.
An emergency glue may be made of
