Harps Of Old still Sound.

Surely poet should be found some
where, to sing with fitting sentiment
the story Of how archaeologists in
Egypt lately have come upon ancient
larps, three thousand years old, the
strings Of which are still intact and
give forth musical sounds after thirty
centuries of silence.
The poet aforementioned should
devote several lines to saying, poeti.
cally, that though we Of today have
seen sights the ancient peoples saw,
though we have read their books,
viewed their embalmed remains,
thought their thoughts and retrod

modern ears listened to their musical
sounds. Ancient music is almost Q
sealed mystery to us, even though a
few written phrases have remained to
be initiated on our instruments. But
would 1t not give US a strange sense
of nearness to them, of oneness with
them, to hear with our ears the same
note that once Gained the rage Of q

Great vIoIinist's Kind Act.

Srede VlOotniSt0 NJno ACts
An impressive example of kindness
Is given by Paganini, the great must
clan. One cold Christmas day he was
going along the streets Of London
when he saw poor blind man playing
on a violin trying to earn mite with
which to buy food to satisfy his hum
ger. But his tunes lacked power to
move the hearts of people and he re-
ceived no response. The poor blind
man stood hungry in. the cold. AS
Paganini approached him, he kindly
patted him on the back and said,
Wont the people. give you any
money!" NO. was the reply; they
won't open their window; it. is too
cold" well, lend me your violin"
said the great musician, land will
see il they will open them for me"
Paganini played as never before. The
windows opened as if by magic. Tho
people listened, and money was
thrown plentitully to the beggar The
sweet yiolinist picked it up, gave it to
the blind man, and told HIM to go
home out Of the cold.

"Your mother and your wife are

man. You see, didn't marry till

together alone up to that time.

In a letter to this Office, Sec'y. G.

tion says:
II have written the Madison Com
mercial Club asking them to take up
the matter of a county agricultural ex-
hibit for Lake county. They had un-
der way plans for one in 1912. but
il fell through some way. No county
in South Dakota has better crops this
year, / understand, than Lake. Crops
generally over the state are good, but
there are certain spots where poor crops
are. and reports furnished the eastern
press are doing much to discredit our
state. This, we feel, we can over
come to a great Isl by placing at
our annual state fair at Huron the best
agricultural exhibit aver assembled in
the state.
Few people realize the many thous-
ands of people that come here each
year from the east, They go home and

not advocate a county agricultural ex.
hibit from Lake county Push it and
see that it is accomplished this year.

REWARD INCREASED

July A while coming to Sioux City
with a motor car to be delivered tc a
local agency, yesterday increased the
reward to 81, 600 if the boys were found
alive.
George ID. Stewart, a member of the
firm of George ID. Stewart a. Co., has
posted a reward of $500 for finding the
motor car. The body and running
gear of the car, which was a runabout
model, were painted "a battleship
gray, while the hood and tenders were
painted black. The car had no wind
shield. The lamps were of nickel and
black enamel. The number of the
motor was E-173.
Rumors were general in Sioux City
yesterday that the bodies of the Nor
rison boys had been found in a brush
patch neal North Riverside. Inyesti
cation found the reports untrue.
Walter Morrison, Louis Levison,
George Nelson and N. p. Frederick
son. Of Viborg, members of the
searching party that dragged the Mis-
souri, river near Elk Point. g. D.,
Sunday without any trace of the bodies,
came to Sioux City to continue their
search.
Mr.. MorI ison now is of the opinion
that the boys were murdered and
their bodies hidden. while the car
was taken by their slsyers. The
theory that the bodies are in the Mis-
souri, river has been weakened by a
fruitless search for the bodies.
The searching party dragged the riv-
or for a mile at a point west of Elk
Point, where a main travelled high
way abruptly ends in the river.
While dragging the hooks caught in
a submerged wire fence and the
searchers thought that it was the
missing automobile. After much drag
ging the fence was brought to the sur
face.

clared last night that the search
would be continued until some clue
was obtained which would lead to hi;

CASE GOES UP
Madison Election Contest to Be
Taken to Supreme Court

Sioux Falls, July 16. In a CONVEX

gentleman gave out the information
that arrangements had been completed
whereby the famous Madison liquor
case would be appealed to the state
supreme court.

sale of liquor received 400 votes,

Cnder a law passed at the last meet
ing of the Legislature which says that
all that is necessary 10 carry license il
to secure a majority of the votes cast
en- that question. The ''wets'' contend
that this means that a majority of the
votes as counted finally is all that is
required. and that the spoiled ballots
should not be considered as votes.
| The ''drys'' contend that the law
means a majority of all ballots which
may have been put in the box on the
liquor question. Judge Jones held
with the ''drys."
Mr.. Kirby in speaking of the APP
peal said that il would be of no
benefit this year which way the su-
preme court might decide as a de-
cision could not be reached until the
fiscal year had practically expired, bat
a decision from the supreme court will
be secured as a guide iu similar cases
in the future.

But just as the age Of Pericles

the Aurignacian epoch was follow
ed by a period of decline, the So

relatively neglected and an extraor-

inventions occurred. The SOlu-

of flint absorbed the inventive ge-
MUS of the new race and reached
wonderful stage Of perfection.
The Solutreans were not artistic
but practical, and they redeemed
themselves by the invention of
bone needles with eye-holes for
thread.

Ability of a Jurist Should

The greatness of an able iurist
ought to be to some extent the
property of the public and to throw
itself along the lines of public in
terest without consideration of a
retainer.
bIr. Choate has pronounced him
self in the same way, and has
handsomely enforced the principle
by example. Mr.. Taft said not long
ago in private conversation: Il
am open to any Macedonian cry
All of which is a way Of protest
ing against commercializing the
legal profession.
But, as already stated, the appi-
cation of the principle is not
limited to the law, but extends as
well to the service of the physi-
clan and the preacher.
Physicians are chargeable with
the responsibility of keeping the
world we'll, over and above the par
ticular responsibility of saving the
lives of those who are able to
make to them a quid pro quo. A
clergyman is a poor clergyman
who does not do lot of work that
he receives no pay for and that
self-respect would forbid his re-
ceiving any pay for.
We have not even yet quite for
gotten the trouble that arose over
the matter of the compensation to
be received by the late Joseph
Parker, of London, for coming over
to this country to preach Henry
Ward Beechers funeral sermon.
The criticism excited at the time
indicates plainly enough the SYM
pathy which the public has with
the principle underlying what Mr..
Taft said at Montreal in regard to
