ISLANDER WAVED ON HIGH
Schoolboys Unfur1 Banner Attacking
 South NOrwaIk Principal.

South Norwalk, May s2s-The town school officials were excited yester- day by the appearance of a flag on the pole in front of the high school which bore the words Wanted a man, not grasshopper" and Down with the grasshopper."
 The flag was hoisted to the top of the pole in the night and the ropes were cut. Late in the afternoon a lineman took down the banner.
 The Norwalk Board of Education is trying to select a. superintendent of schools. Edward H. Gumbart, prin- cipal of the High school, candidate for the office, was displeasing to Dr.. William J. H. Bohannon, a member of the High school board. Dr. Bohan- non recently said that the Board of Education should select a man, not a grasshopper, referring to Gumbart. Hence the writing on the flag. It is believed the banner was put up by High school boys

 Underwood-You've made mess o1 your life, but you've had some meas. ure of happiness, at least, you mar. ried the woman you love. The wo. man I wanted married someone elss damn him.
 Howard-Say, old man, I don't come here to hear hard luck story I came to tell you, if you can't be cheerful-don't say anything-shut up.
 And with this Jeffries falls over or the couch asleep.

It seems that she has called in answer to a note from him, if which he threatens to kill himself un- less she continues to be his friend She upbraids him for writing to her and he reminds her that when she broke her engagement with him she did not destroy his love for her. She broke the engagement she tells him because she found he was deceiving her as he deceived others. and adds that he is incapable of disinterested friendship as he is of common hon. esty. Then she asks him if he means to carry out his threat.
 Underwood-If my life has no in- terest for you. why should you care > Mrs. Jeffries-But you accuse me of being the cause of driving you to your death. I, who have been your friend in spite of your dishonesty. o! It's despicable, ungrateful and above all. it's untrue.
 He asks her why she came to see him. She dreads the shame of hay ing her name connected with that of man who would take his own life. she tells him, and he taunts her with her pride. She reminds him of wha: her husband has suffered through his sons marriage with a saloon-keeper' $ daughter, and asks if he would add to their disgrace. But why should he consider her husbands feelings-who did not consider him when he mar ried her., they argue further. but reach no satisfactory conclusion; she declares she will not recognize him longer among her friends that he may cheat and rob them. 'If you desert me now." he threatens. you'll be sorry till the day of your death."

He admits that he has the independ- ence he sought, but is broke and wants to borrow a couple of thousand. Underwood advises his friend to go home and see his father.

 Underwood-Yes, know.
 Howard-She's all right, but she's so confoundedly-you know her. say didn't you and she-wasn't there some sort of an engagement once? Seems to me T.
 Underwood doesn't care to talk about the matter and asks Howard if he cannot postpone his visit, but the boy simply takes another drink and continues talking. He declares he has married the finest little woman in the world; she is little crude, but the only thing he objects to is that she insists on going back to work, and he won't allow that. He, by tLe way, has attempted several things un- successfully. Underwood tries to tell Howard he is broke, and again ad- vises him to go to his father, who will relent. Jeffries, ST., has too much brains and too little heart, his son thinks for any chance of relenting. "My God, how obstinate that man is,'' he drawls drowsily, as he throws one foot over the arm of the couch

n. OAK. POET RETURNS

Bismarck, May 5.-JamesW w. Fol-
ley, North Dakota's own poet, ar
rived at the state capital Tuesday
after spending the winter in Los
Angeles, Cal. Mrs. Foley stopped
off at St. Paul to visit with friends
and will arrive within the ensuing
few days.
Mr.. Foley said regarding Judge
Morgan's death: "They moved Judge
Morgan to Banning abouth three
weeks before we left Los Angeles.
Banning is on the edge of the desert
and | think is south and east of Los
Angeles. They thought Pasadena
was too low to be beneficial to his
health. I visited with Judge Morgan
two or three days before he was
moved to Banning. At that time
was afraid the end was not far off,
as he looked very poorly indeed. But
he bore up with a courageous heart. -
During the course of his winters
visit Mr.. Foley met large number
of former North Dakotans, some who
have located in California and 9TH
ers who were travelling through. He
enjoyed every minute of his trip.
