new system INSTALLED


The new requisition system for the
city Of Fargo was inaugurated today
by the city auditor. E. r. Orchard and
in the future all purchases OF supplies
for the city will be made through the
new system.
The chief point In favor of the new
system is the fact that the city auditor
mas in his office on file at all times,
copy of the order for supplies. In
this manner he can check up any and
all bills that are presented for pay
ment as well as keep track OF the
outstanding bills that have not been
presented for payment. Everything
viii have as checking place with the
auditor and the books Of the auditor
and the books of the city can be
kept more carefully.

AUTO RUN POSTPONED
Tour Committee Decided to Postpone
Run to Grand Forks Because
Of Bad Roads.

At the meeting Of the tour commit
tee of the Fargo Automobile club held
last evening 1t was again decided to
postpone the run to Grand Forks. The
bad condition Of the roads at this time
is the reason for not making the run
tomorrow.
The run will not be made now FOR
over two weeks at least. The II. C. T.
convention next week will. interfere
with the tour, but If the weather con-
ditions are favorable and the roads in
good shape the run will probably be
made two weeks from tomorrow.

HIS CONSCIENCE FORCED REST
ITuTIoN-HIs LETTER or Elk
PLANTATION OF THE CRIME.

There are honest men in the world.
All men who make one mistake are
not criminals. This is demonstrated
by letter received by a local bank. A
transient laborer who had been engag-
ed on farm in this county came into
local bank with his employer and
fellow workers. A check was made out
to him for So. While endorsing the
man added ''ty'' to the eight and a
cipher to the s. The work was done
instantly with the same ink used by
the employer in making out the check.
AS the employer was present the tellers
did not closely scrutinize the checks.
The farmer lost his stubs on the way
home, and was unable to recall just the
amounts Of the checks made out to the
different men. His account was $72
shy till the arrival of that sum this
week.
The letter is as follows:

BEAUTY IN LocUsTs' WINGS
Rare Relic of Seventeen Year Pest
Owned by Pennsylvania Man 10
Quite Artistic.

Bethlehem, Pa.-James o. Kichline,
a veteran resident of North Bethle-
hem, has a unique relic Of the inva-
sion in 1885 of the seventeen-year
locusts In this vicinity. When locusts
by the million overran the country
there he spent his spare time gather
ing the insects. Then, at his leisure,
he constructed out of them a wreath
and star. He took year to do this.
and In the construction of the wreath
used many thousands Of locusts.
The wreath itself is composed en-
tirely Of locusts' wings, arranged In
fiower-and-leaf fashion. The stars
center is also composed of locusts'
wings, while the six points are made
Of whole locusts.
The background of the star Is made
of leaves Of locust wings.
The wreath and star stand two. feet
high by three feet wide, and this
piece is but one of the many novel
ties made during his lifetime by Mr..
Kichline. who is seventy-four years
old.

the royal pet Of Crown Prince Leopold
of Belgium.

The bird was Mr.. Bryans favorite

to welcome the African hunter was

the parrot, whose musical instincts
were suddenly awakened, insisted
upon competing with the band, to the
delight Of the waiting crowd in the

The competition soon grew so fierce
that the bird was relegated to a Sc

Shipments Are Now Coming Out Of

ly on the increase, and during the
past week two herds were shipped to
California, one of them occupying 40
cars and the other 20 cars. The for
mer Of these shipments went to Fres-
no, the other to San Diego, both herds
being shipped from ranches in Sonora.
During the past season large num-
bers of cattle have been shipped from
this district. the bulk Of them going
to the big cattle markets in Mis-
souri,.
All cattle shipped from this coun-
try are thoroughly inspected, both on
the ranches and again when they
reach the border. and the inspections
at the ranches, while 1t Is not recog-
nized by the government at the Dor
der. is so thorough that 1t is very sell
dom that a herd, when it has been
once inspected on the ranch, fails to
pass the government inspection on
the border.
According to the rules of inspection.
when a herd has once been turned
back at the border, or has been con-
demned at the ranch. no more cattle
will be accepted for export from that
ranch for a period of six months, aft
'er this time another inspection may
be had; If the cattle pass inspection
the shipping may be renewed.
The constant decrease in the cattle
ranges of Texas has given a great
boom to that industry in this country,
and there are numerous cattle ranches
moving over the border and locating
in Mexico. where sufficient range land
may still be obtained.

The Newfoundland government has
refused permission to American fish,
ermen to buy herring for the purpose
Of filling contracts. The request was
made because Of poor season which
prevented the Americans from obtain
ing what they wanted in the waters
accessible to them under the terms of
The Hague decision. Newfoundland
is within its rights in taking such a
stand. Still. 1t is not indicative of the
best or most neighborly temper, and
the action seems to show that the re-
suit of the fisheries arbitration has
not been accepted in the proper frame
of mind.

generations Of feminist protest against
the serfdom imposed by man on his

riage laws. says the New York Herald.
The honest confession that the con-
trary is the case has been secured at
last, but at a cost to feminine con-
sistency which may be expected to
bring its proper rebuke from every
woman's club In the land. The fair
plaintiff to secure her own ends has
proved false to one OF the cherished
principles of her sex. But the truth
