we were startled by the appearance of
a ships long-boat, Boosting formid-
able gun and full of fierce-looking
pirates They were armed to the
teeth and wildly gesticulating,
Our ship was hailed, but on receiv-
ing no reply three shots were fired
across our bow, which quickly brought
us to anchor. They boarded us so
eagerly that they failed to secure
their own craft firmly and she was
caught in the tide, swirled upon a
rock, and sank in the channel. They
swarmed over our ship in their blood
thirty array, capturing the officers,
two of whom were made to walk the
plank in full regalia. They hauled
down the British flag and flew the
skull and crossbone in it's place. And
when the crew and passengers were
thoroughly inundated, they ordered
the ship to proceed to the pirates lair,
officially known as the Euryalus, that
awaited her guests, drawn up to the
jetty, at the dock yard.
The joke was wonderfully we'll done,
the costumes most realistic, and the
acting so good that one felt transport
ed into the far-away days of Bermuda s
early history, when tradition says that
to be captured by pirates was nothing
unusual and almost to be expected in
these waters. The refreshing piquancy
of it all appealed to Mark Twain, and
this delightful adventure charmed him
exceedingly.-Marion Shuyler in

HOW ABOUT THE HONEST MAN

Our psychologists will not solve the
crime problem by studying the minds
of criminals alone. In Boston a learn
ed professor has been appointed by
judge to note the facial expressions
and other peculiarities of habitual Of
tenders. In Auburn, N. Y, a wealthy
philanthropist goes voluntarily to pris-
on to learn how an offender feels.
To know all about crime it is desir-
able to make the acquaintance of some
of It's victims. OF what use is a sci
enee that examines but one side of
question? If crime is to be treated by
psychology, let US apply the same
as are used in our treatment of those
methods to those who suffer from It
who penetrate it.
For instance, what is the physical
aad mental aspect of the person who
has been reduced to poverty by theft
or forgery? What of the blood-pers-
sure and the pulse-beats of man who
has been swiDdled out of a fortune?

sage TEA Turns
GRAY HAIR DARK
IT'S GRANDMOTHER'S RECIPE TO
BRING BACK COLOR AND
lUSTRE TO HAIR.

That beautiful, even shade of dark,
glossy hair can only be had by brewing
mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Your hair is your charm. 1t makes or
mars the face. When it fades, turns
gray, streaked and looks dry, wispy
and scraggly, just an application or
two of Sage and Sulphur enhances its
appearance a hundredfold.
Don't bother to prepare the tonic ;
you can get from any drug store a so
cent bottle of Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Hair Remedy" ready to use This
can always be depended upon to bring
back the natural color, thickness and
lustre of your hair and remove dan
druff, stop scalp itching and falling
hair.
Everybody uses "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur because it darkens so natural
ly and evenly that nobody can tell 1t
has been applied. You simply dampen
sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through the hair, taking one
small strand at time; by morning
the gray hair has disappeared, and
after another application it becomes
beautifully dark and appears glossy,
lustrous and abundant.

MARK TWAIN AMONG PIRATES.

During Mark Twains first visit to
our home touch of the picturesque
signalized a step in our acquaintance,
just such a scene as might have come
out of one of his own books. The
flagship Euryalus was entertaining,
and we had received word that some
thing unusual and mysterious was to
take place during the afternoon. So
we persuaded Mark Twain to go with
us, on a particular boat which we had
been warned not to miss.
As the steady old steamer with it's
burden of light-hearted humanity
calmly steamed through the Narrows,

The housewives of Jackson dare not

talk of organization against this tin

nothing has ever been done. That
such organization against the cooks

One of the most, if not the most en-
joyable parties ever given in Sanborn
was the leap year ball given at Sieg-
fried's Hall last Friday evneing. There
were goodly number present, and the
ladies seemed determined that none OF
the gentlemen should do the wall
flower act, and they kept that deter
mination pretty successfully working,
too. Orchestra Leader Clure seemed
to be in on the play and kept the air
filled with alluring strains, and mighty
little rest between strains. The gen.
tlemen felt that it would be ungallant
to beg off when a lady asked them to
dance and tried to be game, but most
of them are still walking in a fashion
that would lead a casual observer to
believe that their pedal extremities
were inclined to be tender. And the
ladies'? Why, the ladies finished just
as spry as they started. 1t didn't seem

Frame High Man IN
Place for Speaker ship
GRAFTON MAN GAINS STRENGTH
AND is MADE CANDIDATE OF
CAUCUS-PLO THROWS
STRENGTH TO FRAME.

Word has been received here THAI
Frame Of Grafton will be the next
speaker Of the house. Several Of the
candidates for the speakership threw
their strength to him and it was a
foregone conclusion as early as Mon
day morning that he would be the
choice of the caucus. The following
from Bismarck will give a compre-
hensive idea of the lineup:
Bismarck, N. D., Jan. 6.-Thirty-two
members of the senate in caucus this
morning at 10 o'clock appointed COM
mittee on employment as follows: S.
N. Putnam, Eddy county, chairman;
Frank Hyland, Ramsey; E. l.. Garen.
Bottineau county; J. NJ. Hanley, Nor
ton county; S. P. jacobson, Hettinger
county.
This committee will recommend a
man for secretary of the senate.
The following committee was ap.
pointed as a committee on commit
tees to confer with Lieutenant Cover
nor Kraabel as to the naming of the
senate committees. Governor Hanna
was called into conference with the
members at noon.
The candidates for speakership in
the house have all signed for a caucus
to be held at 2 o'clock this afternoon
at which time the republican candt-
dates for the speakership will be nam
ed. There are eight republican candi-
dates and a process of elimination
will be taken, the low man being
counted out until a candidate is Sc
lected. Several primary caucuses
have been held and the indications
from them are that Frame of Walsh
is the strongest candidate. A meet
ing held last night, at which forty
members were present, showed Frame
to have seven votes more that the
next highest candidate. Attempts to
eliminate several of the candidates en-
tirely failed and Frame was finally
selected by ballot.

History Of the chautauqua Literary
Scientific Circle.
The c. L. S. c. was organized on
August II, 1878, at Chautauqua by DR..
(now Bishop John II. Vincent. Its
aim was Ito promote habits Of reading
and study in nature, art, science, and
in secular and sacred literature, in
connection with the routine of daily
life, Especially among those whose
educational advantages have been lin.
1ted), SO as to secure to them the COL
lege students general outlook upon
the world and life, and to develop the
habit of cloes, connected, persistent
thinking" The course was planned
to cover four years, and the methods
proposed were TO encourage individ-
ual study in lines and by textbooks
which shall be indicated; by local cir
cles for mutual help and encourage
ment in such studies; by summer
courses Of lectures and students ses-
sions at Chautauqua, and by reports
and examinations"
1t is safe to say that more than half
million people have read the Chau.
tauqua course. Thousands of these
readers have kept up with the studies
for many years after finishing their
four years. course. The membership
has extended to every part of the
United States and to nearly every
foreign land. 1t has been the inspira.
tion of similar movements for popu.
lar education in England, Australia,
Japan, and South Africa.

December a Month
of Fine Weather
UNUSUAL BAROMETRIC CONDl
TiONS AT CLOSE OF MONTH
OVER STATE.

Everybody in North Dakota has
been praising the weather during the
month of December just closed. The
contract with December weather of
last year has certainly been very
great The fine open weather has
permitted much farm work to be done
and carpenters and others have been
able to work out of doors the same as
in October, with the exception Of two
or three days. All of the threshing
has been completed and light snow
fall towards the end of the month, in
this locality, has made good sleigh
ing, and plenty of water for stock
that are on the range in the western
part of this county.
The December Of 1912 resembles
very much that of 1890, and very few
winters since 1890 have been as open
and pleasant as this one so far.
Monday, Dec. 80, the barometer was
the lowest ever recorded at this sta
tiQn, also at Bismarck where there is
a government weather station. The
pressure at o'clock in the morning at
Bismarck was 29.10 inches, and the
same at Devils Lake and Winnipeg,
Williston, and Qu' Appelle in north.
western Canada. The temperature
was 80 at Bismarck and about the
same at Jamestown. A brisk wind
during the day, which died. out toward
evening, was the only indication Of
any unusual weather changes, indi-
Gated by the low barometer.
Director Roberts of the Bismarck
station says that during the past
thirty-eight years we have had
twenty-nine colder Decembers, seven
warmer, and two with the same aver.
age. The warmest December was
29.4 degrees in 1877; the coolest was
1.8 degrees below zero in 1879.
The total precipitation to date
(30th) is O.40 inch. The greatest
amount of precipitation recorded in
December at this station was III
inches, in 1874; the least was 0.16 inch
in 1881 and 1894.
The average temperature for De.
cember is 100 degrees, and the aver.
age precipitation is 0.62 inch.

The CHAUTAUQUA READING COURSE
Dr.. creegan Will Lecture.

A certain argument runs like this:
Iif you don't 60 to school you can't
learn: the only trouble with this state
is that it is not true.
Schools will always be necessary;
but no ones education should end
when he leaves school or college. 1t
really just begins then.
The Chautauqua Literary and Scien.
tific Circle aims to help ambitions peo-
pie and make them help each other.
1t is for mechanics and artisans,
fathers and mothers, teachers and
other professional folks, college grad
yates and invallids, for all who will
maintain that "the best is yet to be"
The Valley City Chautauqua Home
Reading Course will be distinctly
worth while throughout. 1t will give
"The ollege Outlook" by the aid of
books in simple, plain English.
Those who engage in 1t, while help.
ing themselves, will also help one an.
other. ...
A simple and inexpensive plan is be-
ing worked out by which the benefits
and privileges of the course will be
open to all who choose to take advan-
tage of them. ..-
In the near future mass meeting,
to be addressed by DR.. Creegan, of
Fargo College, will be held, at which
the Reading Course will be launched.
If you have any friends, of studions
disposition and literary inclination,
resident anywhere within a hundred
miles of Valley City, why not advise
them, either to organize a local read
ing circle, or to take up the course
privately, with view to attending the
