Placed Beside Mother

LYNCHBURG. Va, July 1.-THE fnal
wishes of Clarence v. T. Richeson, who
was electrocuted in Boston In May for
the murder of Avis Linnell were car
ried out when his body was exhumed
from the old graveyard on his fathers
farm, four miles from Amherst Court
house., and reinterred beside the grave
of his mother in the Amherst Court
house Cemetery.
When the body was brought from
Boston in May It was met at Amherst
depot and taken by a circuitous route to
the graveyard. Publicity was carefully
svoided and the body would have lain
undisturbed as far as the male members
that he should be buried, as he wished.
next to his mothers grave, and to this
Mr.. Richeson, ST., consented.

White Pigeon Brought Good Luck

White Pigeon Brought Good Luck
1t Is one Of the pct beliefs of the fish
ing fleet folk that when a white bird
flies aboard a ship at Sea good luck
is bound to follow. AMI If a white
bird happens to fly aboard a brand
new craft 1t insures the vesse, with all
kinds of joy forever. Out on Georges
two weeks ago a little pigeca fiuttered
down on the deck oI the good ship
Mary, perching on the wheel box. Re-
sult-good luck. Although Captain
Whalen's boat struck mighty hard
weather, it came through without a
scratch and landed 10000 pounds OF
mixed ground fish, mostly hake and
cusk, which is pretty nearly the record
catch for maiden trip.
The pigeon looked as though it had
had some pretty hard luck itself be-
fore it feH in with the Mary, however
One of it's wings was badly torn as
though gull or hawk had taken a
piece out of it. The men aboard took
good care of the pigeon, giving 1t plen-
ty of food, although they made no at
tempt to cOnfine it, to any one part OF
the vessel. The bird made friends with
every one. especially the cook, and re-
fused to eat except out of the mems
hands AS the Mary came up the har-
bor the bird was adeck. Abreast OF
Governors island he suddenly took
wing and flew away. The men said II
looked to them as though the bird had
recognized his surroundings in the in
ner harbor and had flown for home

INDIA's SACRED MONKEYS
An Intruder Into Their Jungle Retreat
Got a Good Scare.

An Intruder Into Their Jungle Retreat
Got a Good Scare.
In various parts of India monkeys
are regarded as objects of worship.
One of the principal monkey temples
Is at Nuddea. Such veneration Is
shown there to Huniman, the monkey
god, that visitors may not enter. the
court of the temple without removing
their shoes.
On one occasion an English officer
in passing up the country near Mud
dea, chanced to stroll into a bamboo
jungle when his boat had put to" for
the night. He had not advanced far
before he heard a terrific uproar all
about him, and he was not little
alarmed to behold a whole army of
the largest monkeys he had ever seen
making toward him from all quarters.
Some jumped on the ground before
him, others swung by the bamboos
over his head. and many closed up the
path in his rear. Several females had
young ones clinging to them, but this
fact did not seem to render them less
agile than the others.
The Englishman knew not what to
do. He yelled at the top of his voice
for assistance. To his intense relief,
each time that he yelled the monkeys
retreated bit. This encouraged him
to persevere in his shouting, but he
observed that when he himself began
to retreat the monkeys would again
begin to close in upon him.
Then he stood still and gave one
tremendous shout, whereat the mon
keys went back again. This time the
man had gained fully twenty yards
and was about to repeat the call when
there appeared a new figure upon the
scene in the person Of an aged, de.
crepit woman hobblirg through the
midst Of the animals.
This aged person shook two or three
Of the monkeys by the paws as she
| passed. No sooner had she come with
in hearing Of the Britisher than she
| opened upon him the Walls Of her
wrath for disturbing the sacred ami
mails in their retirement. She bade the
intruder depart, and that quickly, an
order which he lost no time In execut-
ing. The monkeys all seemed implic-
lily to obey the old woman's bidding
making way for the man to retreat
| The old woman. it appeared, was
employed by the Brahmans to supply
the monkeys with their food each day
They were worshipped by all the peo-
pie in the country round. who brought
offerings of rice and sweetmeats to
them ntinually.-Harpers' Weekly.

Some day someone will tell the story
Of the Cafes Of the Twin Cities that
are instrumental in the ruination Of the
lives Of thousands Of young girls every
year. A resident Of st. Paul who
knows the conditions as they are, says
the facts are appalling and hardly be-
lievable. At some Of the Cafes, In
toxicating liquors are sold and here
men with young girls in their teens
may be seen every night. Some of the
girls are from the country, having gone
to the city to better their condition.
Others are daughters Of respectable
parents living right in the city. Girls
are warned to keep away from the res
taurants unattended. Business is very
quiet in Minneapolis and st. Paul.
When the Dakotas fail to pour $25, 000,-
900 into those cities every fall business
failures are the results. The largest
stores have been cutting down their
help, other positions are not to be had,
and the result Is that hundreds of good
young women have gone to the bad. 1t
is estimated that there are a thousand
street walkers in st. Paul every night.
We don't give these facts to create any
sensation. but merely to put parents
on their guard, that they may use pre-
caution in keeping their daughters
away from these vice centers.

The State Industrial Exposition opens
this week at Bismarck, where Com
missioner Gilbreath has located it per-
manently AS long as such an EXPOSE
ton is to be held, we'd advise our
readers to attend if they can, as they
will see splendid exhibit and have a
good time. This exposition costs the
state several thousand dollars a wear
and while we believe it does some good,
we believe that the money could be
spent to far better advantage. It is a
good thing for Bismarck for it brings
several thousand people from various
parts OF the state to the Capitol city
where they spend several days and
quite a few dollars. The exhibits are
credltable enough, in fact we doubt If
any state could excel in this particular
but the trouble is that the people who
ought to see them, don't have the op-
portunity North Dakota needs the
right kind of advertising very badly
and Commissioner Gilbreath could be
instrumental in bringing this about if
ne was so inclined. Do as a Minot
land firm did recently take an exhibit
to the county fairs Of Illinois, hire
corps OF good speakers to preach the
gospel Of North Dakota, and you will
have struck the right advertising chord
You reach the very people who ought
to learn the facts about North Dakota,
men of means who are looking for safe
investments.
