MOTHERS PENSION
A Splendid Law Passed by the
Legislature

Pierre, March 11.-Amnng the last
of the bills of the house which the SEN
ate accepted was the Mcfarland
mothers pension act. The prov isions
of this act are to authorize counties to
levy a special tax to raise Q fund to
carry out the provisions of the law,
which allows on a proper showing to
the county court, by an applicant in
person OF by a friend, the payment
to a mother with dependent children
S15 per month for one child, and s.
per month for each additional child
under IA years of age. There is II
limit of six months on sucn payments,
but the county court may continue
the payments for additional six
months so long as the court after prop
er investigation thinks that the money
should be paid The object of the
law being TO allow a mother with
small children a compensation by
right, instead of charity, which will
allow her to hold the family together,
supplementing such earnings as she
may be able to secure for herself.

its forecast for the present week says
springtime weather with fair skies
and normal temperature will prevail
throughout the country. The distribu
ton of pressure over the hemisphere is
such as to indicate that the temperature

normal over practically all parts of
the country. Precipitation will be
generally light and local. 1t is not
probable that any general storm will

AS an indication of the prosperous
condition of this community, County
Treasurer RohreI reports the collection
of sos, 900 tax money since the new
year. This is a greater amount than
has ever before been paid in at this
season of the year. OF the amount
81, 0OO was Inheritance tax. This,
however, goes to the state entire. 1t
might have been thoughtful on the
part of some of our late Legislators to
have secured the passage of a law per
uniting counties to retain a part of
the inheritance tax.

BUSINESS FIRM
In Roberts County Charged With
Attempt to Defraud
Creditors

Aberdeen. March IL. Charles G
Lindquist and his brother, Andrew
W. Linquist, prominent residents of
Roberts county, South Dakota, have
been held to the next term of federal
court here under bonds of 81, $50 each,
on charges of attempting to defraud
their creditors. Both waived prelim-
mary examination and furnished ponds
for their appearance.
The Linquist brothers practically
owned the townsite of Diamond at the
head of Lake Traverse in Roberts
county. They owned a large general
store. an elevator, machinery and i'm
plemept business and operated a line of
boats from Diamond down the lake TO
Browns Valley. MINI. On August s,
1911, the charge against the brothers
states, the Lindquists made a general
assignment of their property to W. b.
Jordan, jr.. of Minneapolis, for the
benefit of their creditors, several of
whom on August Is, 1911, filed a
petition in involuntary bankruptcy
against them, and on September 10,
1911, they were adjudged bankrupts,
and on October Is of that year. Fred
G. Huntington, of Aberdeen, was APP
pointed trustee for the estate. 1t is
claimed the brothers concealed large
portions of their assets from the trus-
tee. in an attempt to defraud their
creditors. The assets alleged to have
been concealed including 40 cords of
cord wood, blscksmith's tools and i'm
plements worth 81. 500; farm machin-
cry, dry goods and other articles of
merchandise worth S., 900; some grain
and a large quantity of tools, wares
and merchandise, wagons, sleds, boots
and shoes, etc, worth several thous
and dollars. The complaint also
alleges that a house at Ortonville.
Mimi, valued at 81, 500, was alleged
to have been mortgsged on August 1,
1911, to A. W. Carlson for 81. 900. but
Carlson denies having loaned the Lind
quists the 81, 900 OF of having taken a
mortgage ON the place.

I've been sitting alone in my shack, a-reading the new almanac; and before I began seemed quite a sound man, but now I am hope less, alack. As strong as a gov ernment mule, l gamboled around like a fool, with a spirit at ease though I'd every disease that is known at the medical school! In the night time l slept like a log; my appetite ne'er missed a cog; I was feeling SO gay that I chortled all day; now my soul Is enyeloped in fog. For I find l have ague and chills, and glanders and various ills; I must cut out the meat and the things good to eat, and fill my old system with pills. In ailments I'm certainly rich, and my song has a heart rending pitch; l am sick, in  and out, with the measles and gout, and the humps and the seven year itch. Bronchitis and Quinsy are mine; when it comes to lumbago l shine; l have shingles and croup and l cough with a whoop, and my stock of dyspepsia is fine. My liver is all out of whack, and my stomach keeps jumping the track; and the book says the bung has been lost from my lung, and my kidneys are stuck to my back. How lucky 1t was that I found that almanac lying around! might have supposed was healthy, nor dosed my stomach with drugs by the pound.-Walt Mason.

For a long time observing peo- ple have noticed that ones hair grows grey sooner in Alaska than elsewhere. Since the observation was made many have been giving the matter serious consideration and from their study the following theory has been evolved: that man is an animal. or mayhaps, a bird, and like the weasel and ptarmigan puts on a coat in winter time resembling the snow, so that he will become less a target for the sharp eyes of his. or it's, natural enemtes-the wolf and the eagle.
 One of the best examples of the workings of the theory is shown in the case Of Editor Strong of the Juneau Empire, who since his first coming to Alaska has develop ed one of the finest crests of silver locks that the pale moon ger shone upon. When he went out a few years ago and travelled around Europe and the Holy lands, his thatch of waving and weblIke fila ments drew the admiration of be- holders. Today we are told on good authority, that while absent his crowning glory began to take on a saffron hue, plainly indicating that time was turning backward and slowly restoring the pristine pig ment to those cherished threads of light. Now that he is back to the land he loves best, another change Is taking place and he is once more becoming silver tipped. Strange are the workings of Ma ture.
