Grace Knives.

There is a curious class Of knives Of
the sixteenth century the blades Of
which have engraved on one side the
musical notes to the benediction Of the
table, or grace before meat, and on the
other the grace after meat. These
knives usually went in sets Of four,
representing a four part harmony Of
bass. tenor. alto and treble. They
were kept in al upright case of stamp.
ed leather and were placed before the
singers according to the adaptation of
each n to his particular part. As
may be supposed, the inscription was
usually in Latin. The following speci.
men Is taken from actual knives Of
the period: "Pro tuis beneficiis Deus,
gratias agimus tibi" (For thy good
gifts, 0 God, we thank thee).

All these years the great Bismarck
Maudan bridge has been the only one
across the Big Muddy in the northwest,
but now competition in the railroad bus
mess has compelled the outlay OF great
sums for other bridges. Now the 500
Line and the Great Northern have de-
cided to build across that river, both
lines to cross into Mckenzie county. De
velopment of the central western por-
ton Of the state is to be quite rapid
from this season on, and the extension
OF these roads will do it.

It was during one Of the recent

at the heel. went up to a trio Of young
strikers who were standing Mt the cor

them could lend him a match. One Of

THAT SILVER SERVICE.

>IJdHu TOIkSy Ilcldlu.
So long ago that we have forgotten
the date, a movement was started for
the purchase of a suitable gift to be
presented by the people OF this state to
the battleship North Dakota as a testi-
monial of the appreciation of III peo-
pie in the fact that the name Of their
state had been chosen as that OF what
was then the largest and finest of the
ships OF our magnificent fleet. The SEN
timent which prompted the movement
was an honorable one, and the proposed
act was in conformity with a graceful
custom which has prevailed for a long
time past. A state committee was
formed for the purpose of collecting
funds and deciding upon a suitable gift.
A silver service was decided upon, and,
in process OF time, an order was placed
for the service, which was to cost ap-
proximately $4,000. The service was
completed long ago, and a part of the
price was paid. Since then the manu-
facturers have. been trying to get the
rest of their money. In the meantime,
the work of collecting funds has
stopped, the service lies unused in the
manufacturers vault, the place on the
vessel provided for its reception on the
assurance that such a gift was to be
made stands empty, and the entire peo-
pie of North Dakota are being humiliat-
ed every day by being confronted with
the fact that the making of this gift,
which they had promised, was allowed
to lag for lack OF the collection of a
trivial sum ought to have been cleaned
up long ago. Some months ago a pro-
posal was made that an appeal be made
to congress for an appropriation to cov-
er the shortage because of the default
here in this states The Herald re-
ceived information Of this fact, but re-
Trained from publishing it in the hope
that the fund might be completed among
our own people without the further hui
initiation of having congress asked to
complete a work of this kind in which
we had failed. Now the captain Of the
ship is wondering, and not unnaturally,
what he is to do with the ecker room
which has been provided for this gift.
He has been criticised for making any
statement concerning the matter, but he
realizes, without doubt, that at the pres
ent rate Of going the battleship North
Dakota will be consigned to the scrap
heap long before the service is present
ed, and perhaps he would like those
cupboards put to some actual Use dur
ing the life of the vessel.
The collection of this money is not
a matter Of method. Any one of a doz-
en- different plans might be adopted, and
any one of them would fail if the work
we're not properly pushed. Any one OF
them would succeed with proper atten-
ton. If the presefN commission is
weary, let another n be created, let
to do is to go and get that money, and
the understanding be that the one thing
to get it at once, in order that the state
may not be further Inundated by the
disgraceful dragging of this affair.

Freckles'' is a dramatization by Neil
Twomey of Gene Stratton-Porter's book
OF the same name. 1t tells the story of
how a founding having but one hand
rises in the respect and estimation of his
fellow-men and gains the love of the girl
he loves through his honesty, fidelity and
courage.
Freckles secures a position as guard of
the Limberlost. tract of land with many
valuable trees. after making strong
plea for the position to Mclean. a men,
Der of the Grand Rapids Timber Com
pany. While engaged in his duties he
meets Angel. who is possessed of
beauty and riches. He Is beset by con-

tree while saving Angel. and after be-
ing carried to a Chicago hospital he de-
spairs of his own life. Angel makes

Polls.

The Poll Players undertook a big task
last night, but showed they were equal
to it. A sympathetic presentation Of the
average play is expected of a stock COM
pany, but to score a success with a
musical comedy such as Little Johnny
Jones' is an entirely different under
taking. If the number of encores which
were demanded was an indication OF ap-
proval, every one Of the principals scored
big hit with the audience.
The plot of Little Johnny Jones" and
the songs of the piece are known to prac-
tically every theatergoer and need not
even a brief outline now. The title role
created by George cohan is played by
Graham Velsey. The Cohan voice is
missing, but he sang the famous Yam zee
Proposition After AIr' and Give My
Regards to Broadway in a manner that
was most pleasing. Mr.. Velsey. in his
immaculate attire, also did some dancing
that brought forth much applause.
Miss Gertrude Bondhill, as Goldie
Gates, is the big hit of the show.
Miss Bondhill is congenially cast in
the role of rich young American girl
disguised as a soubrette. She has a sweet
contralto voice, and when she sang Good
Ethel Levy, who created the role, she
won the heart of every one in the audi
ence Time and time again Miss Bond
hill was encored and each time she sang
the refrain of the song more sweetly
than before.
Izetta Jewel was vivacious FIorabelle

an. Miss Jewel had but one opportunity
to show the quality Of her voice. the song
