The Old Duffer Was Inside.

A story which DR.. Boyd Carpenter
has been heard to recount concerns
an occasion when he was to perform
the ceremony at very smart we'd
ding in a London church. AS usual.
a great crowd of people stood about
the doors and lined up on either
side Of the strip Of red carpet. Mag
nifcent carriages and motor cars
rolled up and disgorged the splendidly
dressed guests, but at the end of a
long string of equipages came de-
plorable ramshackle old four-wheeler.
It drew up gloomily opposite the
strip of red carpet. e
A couple of policemen dashed at
the cabby.
Here, hi !" they shouted. ssYou
can t stop here!'' The bishops just
coming!
The old cabman regarded them
with scornful eye

And DR.. Carpenter opened the door
and stepped out. The Straud.

North Star Collage at Warren

The people of the bustling village
of Warren, the county seat of Mar
shall county, are justly proud of the
North Star college located there.
The building was formally dedicated
last Friday. Among the speakers
we're James J. Hill, who delivered a
very fine address,. Our old friend,
Rev. G. Wahlund, formerly of Spring
Lake. Iasnti county, is mainly re-
sponsible for the college. and it is a
monument to his untiring energy and
enterprise. Although the college was
founded by the Swedish Lutherans it
has received substantial support from
people of all denominations. The
college cost $4,000, is a beautiful
building and will care for 400 STU
dents; new buildings will be added
as occasion requires. Mr.. Hill is a
believer in small colleges and, in his
speech, he intimated that he would
do something handsome for the
North Star college.

Arrested for Child Desertion.

Acting upon information phoned
to the Minneapolis police department.
on Tuesday by Sheriff Shockley, an
officer arrested Leo Jopp as he left
the down train upon that day.
1t appears that on Monday evening
Jopp, with one of his children, ar
rived in Princeton from Carver coun-
ty and, going to the home of Mrs.
Roos, where his wife, from whom he
is separated, is staying, he opened
the door, thrust the child into the
house, and ran away. He was fol-
lowed some distance by one of the
Roos boys, but the night was dark
and he escaped.
Sheriff Shockley was notified and
ne, securing a warrant for Jopp upon
the charge Of child desertion, went
to the depot on Tuesday morning in
anticipation that Jopp would board
the down train. AS Jopp did not
appear the sheriff phoned Harry
Pratt at Zimmerman, who later re-
piled that Jopp had entered the
train at that point. Thereupon
Sheriff Shockley phoned to police
headquarters at Minneapolis describ-
ing the man, and an officer was dis
patched to the depot to arrest Jopp.
He was taken into custody and
locked up pending the arrival of
Sheriff Shockley, who went to Min
neapolis yesterday and secured his
man.

Pensioning Ex-Presidents.

The audacity of Andrew Carnegie's
offer to pension future ex-presidents
Of the United States made the nation
gasp once or twice and then break out
In Homeric laughter. 1t is doubtful if
there will ever be an ex-president with
so little self respect that he would
accept charity from such source, and
even if there should be the nation
would not permit it. The incident
may serve one good purpose, however.
1t may arouse congress to provide
some dignifed and fitting support for
those who have held our highest Office
A bill has already been introduced
to make ex-presidents members of the
house, but without vote. The rea-
son the vote is withheld is that to be-
stow it would require a constitutional
amendment. For giving the house the
benefit of their experience their re-
Enumeration under this measure would
be $17,5OO per year. 1t has also been
suggested that they be given a seat in
the senate. One man would make
them members of both houses. That
might be a happy solution, but even
a former president is hardly numerous
enough to be in two places at once.
1t seems a pity that the United
States has not body corresponding
to the Japanese elder statesmen. This
would be an ideal berth for presidents
out of job. All this aside, our for
mer chief magistrates have managed
fairly we'll. thank you. and can proba-
bly, do so in future, even without a
pension. At any rate, they have cut
a vastly more digniied figure than
they would have done accepting char
ity from a private individual. If they
require assistance it should be given
by nothing less and by nobody less
than the entire nation. -r---- --~>
