There comes to our exchange desk

first volume of the Beaver Valley Ga
zette, published at Wibaux by Rev.
Chas. 2. White, and being the latest
acquisition to the field Of Dawson
county journalism Mr.. White has
been connected with several North
Dakota papers, and from the amount
of news matter and advertising which
is carried in the first issue, in such a
comparatively limited field as Wibaux,
it is certain that he is born newspa-

Triumph OF A New Idea

About the quantity Of reading mat
ter furnished in the average Sunday
newspaper there is no reason to com
plain unless it be on the score Of too
muchness- but the quality often leaves
much to be desired. The only shining
and unqualified exception to this rule
is found in the unique Sunday Maya
zine of The Chicago Record Herald
There is nothing else like it in the
whole range, of American journalism.
1t is real magazine that is regularly
issued as part Of the Sunday paper.
It's filled with first class fiction, able
articles, choice pictures and wide
range Of good miscellany, all by popu-
lar or really famous authors and ar
lists. When writer's such as Conan
Doyle, Anthony Hope, Rudyard Kip
ling, Jack London, sewell Ford, Cy-
rus Townsend Brady and Roy Norton
are counted among the contributors to
a Sunday paper it's triumph can no
longer be doubted.
The Sunday Magazine Of The Record
Herald is far and away the best liter
airy treat offered to newspaper readers
in the United States today The lar
gest monthlies and independent week
lies cannot surpass it IN quality or sus-
tanned interest. You will always find
one of the finest serials Of the year in
its pages, often captured from the big
monthlies at record prices. It's short
stories, including those of the delec-
table Shorty McCabe, can't be sur
passed

The Grip This Dreadful Disease Takes
Upon It's Victims.
The course of the dreadful disease,
sleeping sickness. is an extremely slow
one. The first stage is said to last q
year or more, and the cause OF the dis
ease may be IN the blood long before
any symptoms whatever present them
selves. The patient has occasional
fever; indeed, a disease hitherto called
Gambia fever has recently been reeog-
nized as the first stage OF sleeping
sickness. It is said that the swelling
OF the Emphatic glands OF the neck is
characteristic early symptom. This
was known in 1903 to DIR. Winterbot-
tom, who states that slave traders,
recognizing the symptom of a fatal
disease. would not buy slaves who had
this glanduIar enlargement The pa
tent feels well and strong and Is able
to go about his usual occupations.
The second stage is indicated by q
distinct change In the appearance Of
the patient. His expression grows
heavy and dull; he becomes apathetic.

exert himself. With the progress OF
the disease these symptoms become
more marked; walking and speech be-
come difficult and finally impossible.
During the last week the sufferer lies
in state Of complete coma, from
which the illness derives its name.
Often during the second STAGE ~ tia
disease the brain becomes affected.

HELENA, Feb. 9-The important
feature of the senatorial contest
this week has been the steady gain
Of W. G. Conrad, the Great Falls
banker and stockman. Starting
with handful Of loyal followers
he seems to have worn out much OF
the Walsh support and last Saturday
for the first time his vote equaled
that cast for the Helena lawyer.
Today, for the first time, Conrad
took the lead, but whether this
means radical change in the stu
alton remains to be seen. One thing
seems certain, however, and that IS
that the time of final and supreme
test of the strength Of the two men
is near at hand.

NOT A GAME Or CHANCE.
The jury Decided That seven-up Was
Purely Scientific.

The jury Decided That seven-up Was
Purely Scientific.
One of Mark TWains old time sto-
rles concerned the game Of seyen-up,
or old sledge. Some Kentucky boys
were arrested for playing this game
under the usual charge Of playing a
game Of chance. When they were
brought before the judge their lawyer
claimed that this game was not
game Of chance, but was a game OF
science. The court, puzzled, asked for
a suggestion, and the lawyer declared
that il a jury of six gamblers well ac-
uuainted with the game IN scientific
way and six deacons be impaneled
with a pack Of cards their decision
ought to be determinatiye So the sto-
ry goes:
s"There was no disputing the fairness
of the proposition. Four deacons and
the two dominies were sworn in as
the chance jurymen, and six inveter-
ate old seven-up professors were
chosen to represent the science side
Of the issue They retired to the jury
room.
I'm about two hours Deacon Peters
sent into court to borrow So from q
friend. In about two hours more
Dominic Miggles sent into court to
borrow stake from a friend Dur
ing the next three or four hours the
dominic and the other deacons sent
sr,+,s aoYrf for small loans
1.-THE rest of the story can be told
briefly. About daylight the jury came
in, and Deacon Job, the foreman, read
the following verdict:
"sNNe, the jury In the case Of the
commonwealth Of Kentucky versus
John Wheeler ct al, have carefully
considered the points OF the case and
tested the merits of the several theo-
ries advanced and do hereby unan1-
mously decide that the game common
" known as old sledge, or seven-up,
Is eminently a game Of science and
not OF chance. In demonstration
whereof it is hereby and herein stated,
iterated. reiterated, set forth and
made manifest that during the entire
night the Chance" men never won a
game or turned a jack, although both
feats were common and frequent to
the opposition, and furthermore In
support OF this our verdict we call at
tentfon to the significant fact that the
chance men are all broke and the
science" men have got the money.
It is the deliberate opinion OF this jury
that the 'chance" theory concerning
seven-up is pernieious doctrine and
calculated to infict untold suffering
and pecunfary loss upon any commu-
nifty that takes stock in IT,"

local financial district.
When a detective approached Shell
don he made a sensational attempt to

He called up a local stock broker
and gave orders to close out his deals
on the local stock exchange.
Sheldon, according to the police dis

His stock operations there are said
to have excited the suspicion of the
authorities and a Montreal newspa-

doing a legitimate business and offer

attorney for complete investigation.
On October 13 he disappeared before
the officials had an opportunity to in

Sheldon came direct to this city.
Apparently he passed all his time
about the local stock market, but
maintained no Office nor has it been

About three years ago Sheldon
opened an Office in Montreal and car

For time II is said, he paid from 5

solicit and collect money for him on
a 10 per cent commission
About this time the newspapers be

said, when the authorities were about
to examine his books he disappeared
