Moving Picture Found Her.

NEW YORK, May 23.-Through the
figure of a dashing cowgirl thrown on
! the motion picture screen in Brook
| lyn theatre William Alderman, a let
ter carrier of 1872 Elton street, Brook
| Ign, traced his runaway daughter,
Florence, Is years old, so successful
| |, she was taken before Magistrate
Voorhees, in the Jersey avenue police
court. Before proceeding with the case
the magistrate directed his woman
probation officer to remove several
layers of paint and powder from. the
youthful actress face. Then he sent
her to the Wayside Home to await fur
Their examination.
Craze for the movies" is believed to
have been responsible for the disap-
pearance of Miss Alderman from her
parents home ten days ago. Several
times before she vanished the girl
told her friends of her ambition to be-
come a member of motion pi .tnre
stock company. She haunted the pic
tire shows IN the vicinity of her ONE
and refused to obey the wishes of her
parents After she left the Elton
street house the girls father informed
the police and a general alarm for her
rec overy was sent out. No progress
was made until one of Florence's
friends told Alderman she had seen a
picture of his daughter, in cowgirl
costume galloping across a prairie on
a spirited broncho The letter carrier
went to the theatre in which the scene
was depicted, and from the manage
ment learned where Florence was to
be found.

PAVING FIGURES.

The estimated cost of paving il
Moscow will not exceed the figures
given AS a matter of fact the esti-
mates are too high. The cost will fall
below the figures published in the
Star-Mirror and this assertion may be
demonstrated beyond the possibility
of doubt How? Just add up the fig
ures If each one pays the sum APP
portioned does it not produce little
more than the needed $4,000? and
see, 900 will pay the bill if it cost $2.10
per yard But it will not cost to ex-
coed $1.75 per yard, and possibly not
more than $1.50. Therefore the peo-
pie may know 10 certainty that their
paving expense viii not be more than

BE CHARITABLE.

No thoughtful man can take pleas
ure out of another's downfall, how
ever we may differ over religion. From
the dawn of history down to the pres
ent time man, in and out of the church,
has occasionally fallen by the way
side, slave to passion. And always
there is the wreck of homes, the
ruined lives, and consequent disgrace.
Nor does the blow fall hardest on those
offending both the laws of God and
man. Those who transgress and fall
deserve their fate, at least, so far as
matured man may be concerned.
There should be consideration for
boys ard girls. But look behind the
scenes and see the broken hearted
wife, the innocent children, and the
confiding parents of a girl Their
burdens are by far the worst to bear;
their anguish most intense. And the
sympathy of every man and woman
will go out to these.
But, lest we forget, let judgment in
the Hand case be withheld till the
evidence has been submitted and the
defendant has had an opportunity to
make defense. Rev. Hand is entitled
to the benefit of doubt till his guilt
has been established. We grant this
much to all accused men. This much
he is entitled to; this much the pub
lie owes to any man. We do not have
to go back many years here in Latah
county to recall a case where a
prominent physician was charged
with a similar offense. And after
the evidence was in and the trial
over the jury found room for doubt,
and said that the charges were not
established The public should not be
hasty in coming to conclusions. Let
us grant to the other fellow the same
consideration we would expect were
we under fire.

"YELLOW DOG" POLITICS.

usefulness is fast disappearing. There
is no longer room in the esteem of
any enlightened community for that
brand of newspaper, the business of
which is to stand, right or wrong, for
fit or unfit men, in and out of season.
Such a paper does not represent the
best interests of even the political
party it pretends to represent; GER
tainly not the highest good of the peo-
pie in county, state and nation.
There was a time when party fcalty
was son strong that men boosted that
"a yellow dog on their ticket" was
preferable to a good, decent, clean,
capable, honest, respectable American
citizen of the other party. And lot
of good people believed it and voted
it, eve believe Senator Hepburn
still advocates IT'D
There has been time when this

SPARROWS TOO
MUCH FOR SQUIRREL

NEW YORK, May 23.-Scores oil
Washington Heights residents watch
led with GREATNESS suspense as squir-
|rel was driven to his death rs a
flock of chattering sparows at Broad
way and 18th street. The stage for
the little tragedy was set high above
the spectators, and although there
were three acts the tragedy lasted
scarcely 20 minutes
The first scene was one of the great
trees which line Broadway there, their
branches going higher than the five
story cornices of apartment houses
and spreading until they brush the
sides of the buildings The squirrel
was high up on the trunk when men
and women returning from work were
attracted by the unusually discording
cries of the sparrows, which had -ath-
ed in the tree in such numbers that the
outer branches were dark and qulver-
ing.
They lowered about the squirrel,
pecking at him and screeching, flying
away a few yards and then returning
TO the attack. 1t was plain the lit
tie animal was frightened, but he
climbed higher and higher in the tree,
and, venturing out on the branches,
leaped to the fire escape of the apart
ment house at the northwest corner.
That was the second act, and the vii
lains still pursued. New crowds from
the subway gathered, and policemen
went to see what the disturbance was.

LARGE PER CENT OF
WOMEN HAVE TX LEGS''

BERLIN, May 23-'Ware, the tight
skirt, woman! Munich's most dis
tinguished physician, DR.. Karl
Francke, says it is more deadly than
dancing or bridge. This famous doc
tor, whose word is accepted as final
by scientific probers after physical
truths in many and varied phases,
made an elaborate investigation of
what is here known as tx legs" but
which may be popularity defined as
'knock-knees," and here are a few
of his discoveries:
In early childhood rs per cent of
both sexes suffer from the tendency
of the leg to slip away from the
perpendicular. Men straighten out
as they grow to manhood, but the
women incline to still greater devia-
tions. So, in the forty-eighth year he
finds a percentage of so among wom-
Ell classified as unenviable possessors
of TX legs" to only 8 per cent of
men. And, he says, tight skirts are
the great pursuing cause.
According to DR.. Francke, close-fit-
ting and too heavy skirts hamper
women's movements and distort her
limbs An Aphrodite could not stand
the modern gown, if his theory is cor
rest. OF course, it is horrid, and
he is being told so by Munich and
Berlin women But that does not

LAMOURE COUNTY
WANTS An EXHIBIT
Disposition There to Secure
q Portion Of County
Prizes

La Moure Echo: Just now, when
all the natural born boosters are
buried with their own affairs, just
now when there is this bumper crop
to take care Of and the accompany
ing rush Of business, what about the
exposition?
The exposition was a marked sue.
cess last year, and there is evidence
that it is to be a bigger thing this
year. There is a multitude OF
big prizes offered. There is going
to be lots OF eastern people in at.
tendance. There is going to be an
excellent opportunity to show visi-
tors what the several counties OF
the state are capable of producing.
Is LaMoure county going to be among
the number of counties represented?
She ought to be.
Here is the proposition. $500 in
cash is to be paid to the five counties
making the best exhibit. 1t is to 60
Tor the BEST collection. and most
artisically arranged exhibit of grains,
grasses, seeds, Vegetables and other
farm products by any one county"
n nrst prize Is $500. Does La
Moures county want to put herself to
the front? There is but one way, we
think, and that way is to engage
some competent man to take the mat
ter in charge, get up the exhibit, and
go. to Bismarck with It. There are a
number OF men in the county who can
do this, but there is one man who is
especially fitted, and who enjoys that
sort Of work, and who ID in position
to devote time to it. That, man s

league at once, but our COMMISSION.
ers took plenty of time to investigate.
In the first place, the board decided
that it was a judicious expenditure Of
the fund to make a distinctive Stark
county exhibit at Bismarck. The best
grains and grasses in the county have
been selected for the booth which
the county is preparing at Bismarck
and later a choice collection of vege.
tables will be secured. The space Sc
lected is the same as used last year
| by the library commission and in con-
sidercd n of the best in the main
building. The interior of the booth
will be composed Of fixed prices.
which can be used at will at other
places.
j. V. Sl0ssen, manager OF the Mis-.
souri, Slope Development league, was
present when the Commercial Club
committee waited on the county
commissioners and explained the
methods by which he was going to
make a grand display of our products
at Minneapolis and Chicago. The
space alone at the Flour City costs
$500 and it will be even more at Chi
cago, hence. the Importance of band
ing together for the combined dis
play Of many counties in this terri
tory. 1t would be out of the cues.
ton for a single county to make a
creditable showing. y
The county board finally decided
that Stark should be represented at
the eastern expositions which will be
visited in November by several hun
dred thousand people from the Mid
die West. An appropriation OF 5000
was made the parent development
league for entering the county and
$50 was appropriated for advertising
purposes. the plan being to have
some n at each OF the shows to dis
tribute Stark county literature to
those visitors who show an interest
in our county. The commissioners
also voted to turn over everything left
from the $500 appropriated for the
Bismarck end for advertising our
county at Minneapolis and Chicago.
Mr.. Cryne, who is in charge OF the
c0unty's exhibit at Bismarck, will co
operate as far as possible in the
Northwestern Products shows and as
soon as the state exposition is closed,
the county's projects will be avail
able for other places.
The commissioners Of Stark county
did not think it wise to expend all
the immigration fund this year and
1t is estimated that some $3.50 will
be left over. Anyway the 1912 exr
penditure is to be held down to $3.50.
With the experience OF this year and
the material on hand, it is more than
likely that in 1913 the, board could
make q creditable display Mt several
exp0sitions with the balance on hand,
and it would not be necessary to
make any levy for a year at least.
All and all, 1t looks as though our
commissioners had arranged the mat
ter in a very good way. The people
who visit the state exposition next
month and the product shows the fol-
month will have a chance to
judge.
