/ Atlanta, July 15.-The preliminary
lhearing in the case of Mrs. Mary Belle
Crawford, charged with having murdered
her aged husband, Joshua B. Crawford
by giving him poison to get his 100000
estate, has been set for Wednesday
Meanwhile, Mrs. Crawford will have tt
remain in jail, as the offer of bond
for $4,000 for her appearance had to
be refused ON the ground that it was
capital case. Mrs. Crawford voluntar-
lily returned from the country, where she
had intended to spend few days, when
her lawyers informed her that a murder
charge had been preferred against her

gave him a cough mixture. Crawford
died of pneumonia. The charge that
Mrs. Crawford poisoned him is entirely
groundless.
Mrs. Crawford talked freely Of her
marriage to the aged Atlanta capitalist.
She was Mrs Bishop when she met
Crawford at hotel which she conducted
in jacksonville. She says Crawford
liked her cooking and urged her to marry
him.

CITY CAN GET A BARGAIN.

Elsewhere in this issue The Forum
calls attention to the fact that the
city has an opportunity to get a bar
gain in steel cells from the old Cass
county Jail. which could be used to
good advantage in taking care Of city
prisoners. The Fargo jail has long
been a poor affair. 1t is inadequate IN
size, deplorably unsanitary n alto
gether a disgrace to h city.
The city owns and at the rear OF the
city hall which could be utilized ana
with these cells a very Creditable city
Jail. built on the ground level instead
OF in the basement as is now the case,
could be erected at a very low cost.
This matter has been discussed in
street talk today and h suggestion
was made that the $4,000 which was
appropriated last year to remodel fire
station No. l might be available for
the The Forum is of the
opinion, however, that this money
should be expended for the purpose
for which it was intended and that
other means should be provided for
financing a Jail proposition.
Some steps should be aiken at once
to see about purchasing the cells as
il il probable that by the time the new
commission gets into office, they Will
have been disposed of.

I%Y%HEY were sitting around the kitchen stove popping corn.
Il wonder what makes the corn pop?' Jack wondered.
why, the fire, of course" answered Evelyn quickly.
Daddy smiled, and Jack turned to him quickly.
What is the really truly reason" the little boy insisted.
IN try to tell you" daddy said. Last year all these little kernels II corn
grew on a cornstalk out in the field. s a
THE roots of the plant kept sucking up water from the ground, and the
stalk pumped it through its little tubes to the corncob, and then it was divided
among the different grains of corr. In each OF these little kernels lay a tiny
baby corr plant All the water and food which the roots pumped from the
ground were meant as food for this little plant when it should wake I'D and
grow in the spring.
The cons stood In the sun a long time and its nice soft skin grew hard
and dry. The water as then sealed up safely in the grain. >
"One day the farmer car along and picked al. the ear O. corn and hauled
them off to the market. There he sold them, and they were sent about o
trains and wagons until at last they reached our town. 3D.
Mr. Grubb, the storekeeper. bought them and put them in his window,
fun they would be some dull evening when Dinah would let us have a fire in
them to you children. 90
faky grains of starch packed around inside the she'll so that it would
do in the spring - .. ' 60 - - ''
When we got out the corn poppe' and put the grains Of corn into the
pepper the little plants may have thou at: t' -" -"
"WeN, my gracious; it is getting warm! This feels like spring. / do
wonder If ought not to get up! q @"~.. - -E F..
But the little plants waited, for the heat did not feel like summer heat
Inside tn grains of cOrnt the water was getting hotter and hotter until
at last it turned ito steam and there wasn't Dol enough for it inside the shells.
Suddenly the steam burst the shells and pop, all the nice white starch
ran Owe and the grains Of corn turned inside out.
And that was the reason the corn popped. As to the little baby plants, of
course they were shnveled up and cooked 81 that now ven if you planted
one Of these popped grains in the ground it wouldn't grow"

sToP THE ~scoRcHER.

The heavy hand of authority should
come down hard and fast on the reck-
less auto driver in Fargo. with the
opening Of the auto season, reports
Of fatal or manning accidents are
coming in from all over the land.
There are always more accidents just
after the season opens, than at any
other time. This is the natural re-
suit of the exuberance of the spring
time and the thrill of being out in the
open after being held down to slower
methods Of transportation for several
months.
The auto scOrCher has been much
in evidence in Fargo in the last few
days and it should not be necessary
to wait until someone is injured or
killed before taking decided steps to
protect the public. There are laws
against reckless driving and officials
paid to enforce those laws.
If some one is killed or badly in
jured in Fargo, the officials, who have
not insisted that these laws be OBJ
served. should be held to be RESPONSE
BILE.

EVOLUTION OF THE
SODA FOUNTAIN,

Pharmaceutical Era: AS civiliza-
ton develops and human activities in
crease in volume and IN intensity,
augmenting the friction, men and
women find more and more practical
use for such ame%liorating and health
full pleasures as they can afford.
Greatest among these must be reck-
oned the soda fountain with it's taste
full, beneficial, harmless beverages.
Seventy-five thousand strong, repre-
senting an investment Of $50, 000, 900
to the operators in retail stores in the
United States, serving the public with
wholesome beverages to a volume,
computed in dollars and cents to be
$500, 000, 900 annually, the soda foun-
tain is an institution Of recognized
worth and of national scope which
serves a usful purpose alike to the
public and it's owner.
The present soda fountain, like the
telephone, the electric light and the
automobile. as produced by modern
manufacturers, has reached such a
highly developed scientific and me-
chanical state that material improve
ments for increased perfection will not
occur until the future provides us with
new fundamental discoveries.
There have been several distinct
yet correlated influences which have
been vital contributors to the i'm
prOvement of soda water and in
creased sales volumes-fruit syrups
and fruits for fountain use; ice
cream, and the Iuncheonette. The two
last-named, while Of great value as
trade builders, must yet bow before
the first in point of Importance. The
greatest improvement and the larg-
est increase in soda-water sales dates
from the advent of true fruits in
syrups and in form for use at the
fountain. The richest and purest of
ice cream is killed when in contact
with a syrup as a component, as was
the ase thirty years ago. The flavor
is the true foundation of soda water,
and the flavor as we know it is a de-
velopment of the past twenty five
years. There were exceptions, of
course, as in vanilla and chocolate,
but thirty years ago the alleged fruit
fiavors were all others and, while not
harmful, did but poo justice to the
luscious strawberries and r~aspberries
and other fruits they were supposed
to reproduce.

CLASSY BILLS FOR WEEK.

Manager Fowler has secured two
great bills for the week of April 81,
with enough changes to suit all man
ner of vaudeville lovers in the city.
The big headliner for the first half OF
the week is the great Heras family in
their own peculiar a~crobatic act. This
troupe arrived only recently from Eu-
rope and has been playing in the east
to good business. Miss Evelyn Dare
will have a new and pleasing novelty
song; Remington & Reichman, two
young entertainers. have a novelty
singing and musical act that will be
suitable for all classes; the Wood
wards, known as juvenile entertain
ers will be a feature on the pro-
gramme that will be pleasing. They
sing, dance and have a talking act;
Harry Lancaster, known the country
over as the Scotch comedian, has been
especially engaged for the first three
days of the week and he will be found
pleasing. q
For the last half of the week Davis,
Allen & Davis have their own oddly
act that is replete with comedy and
good business that should be a bill
that will please. Miss Dare will again
render a new novelty song; Fenner
e. Fox in their singing, talking and
dancing stunt will be found to be we'll
suited to the tastes of Fargo audiences
and are making a hit all along the
line; The three Frisco Boys in their
Rathskellar stunt, in German, intro
ducing singing and pianologue, will
be a fine act; Harry Fisher & Co, in
their great novelty cycle act, will show
some new and difficult evolutions on
the wheel. All the shows at this house
open and close with the orchestra and
moving pictures.

BIG SCENIC PRODUCTIONS.

For the first half of the week of
April 81, the Grand Stock co. will pro-
duce the laughable farce comedy, Our
S~trategists. which has been played un-
der many different names, but the
story runs about a mix-up in charac-
ters, a mistaken case Of identity in
which all ann of confusion is
brought about greatly to the annoy
ance of the different characters In the
play. The play will be staged in the
same artistic manner by Producer
Halliday and Scenic Artist Borman
that has characterized all of the pro-
auctions at. the Grand, and it will be
a fine production.
The last half of the week will see
the beautiful rural melodrama entitl-
ed Paradise Regained, telling a very
pretty story, nicely written and the
company has been diligently in re-
hearsaI for several days. Like the
preceding play it affords ample OPP
portunity for fine scenic effects and
the play will be well staged and the
entire company will appear In both
bills. Seats may be secured in advance
and there ls the matinee on Saturday
at z.sQ.

A OF PEACE

Plans for the celebration of a cen
tennial of peace between English
speaking peoples early in 1915 are be-
ing arranged. Next month a joint
commission from Great Britain and
Canada will come to New York to con-
fer with the American committee as to
the joint programme for the celebra-
ton.
The last war with England was that
of 1912, which ended in 1914, the
treaty of peace being signed in Client
. in December of the latter year. The
final ratification did not take place
until nearly three months later in
Washington, where the century friend
ship will be celebrated. The very Ia
+ BILE used when peace was formally rat
ifed is still preserved.
In the century which has passed
since the two great English speaking
nations were at war a great change
has come over the sentiment of the
kindred peoples. Though there have
been strains at times which might
have produced more disastrous re-
suits il between different n~ationalities,
the feeling of kinship has permeated
the two countries.
The pastime of pulling the lions
tail" is not nearly so popular and the
lingo who would swing the two
branches Of the same family into a
war has lost a following. 1t is true
that right now there is friction over
the question of free tolls to Americas
coastwide shipping, but that it will dis
turb the peace between the two ma
tons is not to be conceived of. In
fact the very fair way in which this
question is discussed by Americans,
and the total lack of jingoism in re-
gard to ii, is really remarkable.
In the hundred years which have
elapsed since the war of 1912 the En-
glish speaking people have forged
from fifth place in point of numbers to
first place. A hundred years ago the
French, Russian, German and Spanish
languages were spoken by more people
than the English, but all except Ger
man have been hopelessly outdis-
tanced.
1t ig the proud boast of England that
the sun never sets on her possessions.
Two great nations use the English lam
Euage, as well as numerous dependen-
efes, and it is being forced to the front
as a medium for diplomacy M BUSH
hess by sheer weight of the countries
to which it is native.
That the United States and Great
Britain should ever come to blows
again is practically out Of the ques-
ton. In the Spanish American war,
when Germany was in an ugly humor,

truth tnat blood is thicker than wa

tween themselves.

Most old people must give to the
bowels some regular help, else they
suffer from constipation. The condi-
ton is perfectly natural. 1t Is Just
as natural as it is for old people to
walk slowly. For age is never so
active as youth. The muscles are less
elastic. And the bowels are muscles.
So all old people need Cascarets.
One might as well refuse to aid weak
eyes with glasses as to neglect this
gentle aid to weak bowels. The
bowels must be kept active. This is
important at all ages, but never so
much as at fifty.
Age is not a time for harsh physics.
Youth may occasionally whip the
bowels into activity. But a lash can't
be used every day. What the bowels
of the old need is a gentle and nat
ural tonic. One that can be constant

tonic IS Cascarets and they cost only
