RlcnARDTon WILL HAVE
CATHOLIC coRPs

News: Captain Frank Snyder of the
Mandan Catholic Cadets returned Sun.
day afternoon from Richardson. where
he went Saturday to make preliminary
arrangements for the organization oi
the corps of Cadets similar to that in
this city, which will be the second Of
the kind in the state and one Of the
very few in the Northwest.
Richardton is a town in eastern Stark
county. IS miles west of here. with q
population of between 600 and 500 PEG
pie. There is located there a Catholic
college and q monastery. where about, q
score of priests make their headqarters,
doing e%vangelistic work through the
Slope country, supplying vacant pulpits
and holding occasional services in the
smaller parishes. Plus Kopp. president
of the general association of German so
cieties of this state. which met and or
eanized in Mandan last year. resides in
Richardton. and at the time the societies
met here, the Richardton delegation ex-
pressed a desire to have an organization
of Cadets like Mandan's.
Captain Snyder a called by the
priests of that city the middle of last
week and made the trip at his earliest
convenience. Father Lucas is at the
head of the movement. and will probably
have charge of the Cadets when they
are finally organized: he had about 20
at the organization meeting, and Mr..
Snyder gave them a short, comprehen-
sive talk on the matter, explaining the
objects, the manner of organizing and
continuing the corps. drills and studies.
etc. He gave those in charge catalogues
from supply houses, and q book of rules
and drills, and left thorough instruc-
lions as to how to begin the Great work.
One of the chief difficulties will be
found in the lack of a competent drill
master Richafdton has no militiaman
or anyone able to drill the boys accord
ing to modern methods. though many OF
the priests there are familiar with Old
Country methods. The question of mem
bership and interest will not be a factor
at all, for the college there will supply
a membership. at least during the
winter months. of $50 to 200 Cadets
and all of the boys are highly inter-
ested.
Mr.. Snyder expects to 20 to Richard
ton again in two or three weeks to give
the new corps its first drill, and to help
solve the problem of getting a resident
drillmaster.

DORMIIORY FOR A BUSHEL OF
WHEAT

The boys attending the North Dakota
Agricultural College need a home on
the college campus. The students are
asking the farmers of the state to each
donate a bushel of wheat toward the
building of such a home. This will
put the boys under the supervision of
the college authorities at all times.
This is out of the question when they
are rooming all over Fargo. 1t will also
reduce. the expenses 10 the students.
This lack of dormitory has kept many

For a Week Run

In a wonderful human story vihrat-

conditions of today which cry aloud
srg.stently for remedy An urheeval
of the very foundations of modern
society Is In progress, which threatens
to destroy all existing institutions and
plunge the world into state of
anarchy and economic disaster
This play is not primarily Interested
with tho various manifestations of
this upheaval now finding expression
in the clamortnF Of certain parties Of
most pronounced beliefs. nor the
prevalence of vice and crime and the
strained and tense state Of fnterna~
t.cnal affairs. but places before us in
a startling manner one Of the great
underlying causes Of the general un-
rest, namely, the instability OF the
family institution under tho present
marriage and divorce laws which per
init the exploitation OF the hereditary
rights Of the children TO their parents.
by freeing these parents from the
rnaritsi bond on the grounds OF in
com aatihility and other charges to
pursue the wiii-o'-the -wisp OF affinity
and thrusting thousands Of children
into the great everlasting maelstrorn
OF temptation from which statistics
prove very few emerge
The author strongly contends that
rather thasa the destruction Of the
marriage tie, the solution or the
problem lies in effective legislation to
remedy this. ana gives rs the mar
Rage laws of the Roman Catholic
Church. for example. and proves by
figures that but one par cent OF the
divorces procured in this country are

New Swiss Tunne, Pierced

PARIS, Oct 25.--The Mont dor
tunnel between France and Switzer-
land, on which boring operation
began nearly three years ago. was
pierced this week.
AT half past seven o'clock last Tues
day evening the two boring gangs
which had been advancing from the
Swiss and French sides met and shook
hands. and 1t was found that the en-
gineers had calculated the cutting with
the greatest accuracy.
The tunnel, which is three and
three quarter miles long, bores
through the Jura mountains from
France to vallorbe, thus obviating
an eleven miles detour by Pontar-
lier, and should have been pierced
two months ago. The work. how
ever. was delayed by the tapping OF
a number of unsupported springs
which had to be pumped dry. The
outrush of water at one time reached
2,200 gallons a second. 1t Is hoped
to open the new line early next year
The line. by shortening the journey
from Paris to Lausanne. will bring the
winter resorts of the Jura mountains

POOR SUPPORT RESPONSIBLE
FOR CALLING OFF OF BALANCE
OF MATINEEs-THE RACES SAT-
URDAY WERE SPLENDID EXIT.
BITlONS. .

The third programme of races at he
fair grounds on Saturday afternoon
was not as we'll attended as thew
should have been and, as the horses
will all go to Thief River Falls this
week, it is not likely that any more
matinees will be given. The races were
holly contested and the drivers made
every effort TO win. In the free-for-all
pace, Ladyheart, the rast mare belong
ing to P. r. Olston, won all three heats
in fast time. The first two heats Pad
erewski was at her saddle girths when
she finished and the time was 2:l6b
and 2:17. In the third heat Paderew-
ski broke, and Ashland Lockheart fin
ished in second place, the heat being
made in 2:17h.
The pacing race for 2:20 horses was
a hot n and the runaway of Grace
Evan in the first heat caused some
amusement. She scored down and in,
spite of her driver she went the full
mile before he could stop her. This
put her out of the heat, which was
won by Grace Red in 2:22. The second
heat was a close n but the boy driv-
er was able to get Grace Red home a,
winner in 2:23. The special running
race between Little Club and Cole
mans horse with Miss MabIe Lamp
man riding Coleman's horse and viii
lie Smith upon Little Club was a SEN
sational performance. The half was
negotiated in fifty seconds fiat
and both horses came strong at the
end. The boy won the race by a great
finish. ....
The matinees, from a racing stand
point have been successful and they
were started Il 5sindnce horsemen to
comechere and train for the. c next
year. w lit was the intention to thus
build up an interest in harness. races
that would assist in getting larger
fields at the fair, but the attendance
would not justify the continuance. 1t
may be possible that the matinees will
be resumed in the spring If a sufficient
guarantee can be obtained to make
them a success.
