CASH
Prizes FOR -.
-. STATE EXPO

There has already appeared in this
paper a partial list of the many val.
liable premiums offered in competi.
ton at the oncoming Third State In.
dustrial Exposition which is to open
its doors October 18th at the EXPOSE
tion building in the city of Bismarck,
N. D. A complete premium list Is
now in the press.
Recognizing agriculture as the main
industry of the state the manage
ment of the exposition has naturally
expressed this idea by Offering at
tractive prizes for porducts OF the
soil. This is as it should be when
it is considered that farmers, their
families and those directly engaged
in agricultural pursuits comprise prob
ably seventy-ive per cent of the
states population.
A feature of this years premium
list, as distinguishing it from its pre-
decessors, is the greater number Of
cash prizes offered for competition.
This has many advantages over the
former method of offering some arti-
Gle manufactured by the party donat-
ing the prize, although the latter way
has not been altogether abandoned,
| articles of real usefulness to the aver.

does its use entirely with the win.
ners. The room formerly taken in
displaying premiums is also now
availableffor the large increase in en-.
tries that pisu confidently anticipated.
i A glance over the premium list
will indicate to the reader the wide.
| spread interest which this third in.
dustrial exposition has aroused among
all classes interested in the develop.
ment of the Northwest. Each of the
three great trunk lines that traverse
the state have risen generously to
the occasion and their cash offerings
will undoubtedly be the means OF in,
ducing liberal entries and close com;
petitions. Local firms have shown
themselves equally responsive to- the
needs Of the situation and have sub

Countess Thea Erdody, a member
OF the aristocratic Hungarian family
of Erdody, whose family seat is in
Croatia, has recently renowned her
Austrian allegiance and is to live and
work in New York. She writes as
follows in the World of that city:
l suppose there a great many girls
in this great country Of America who
are this moment busy day-dreaming,
wondering how it would feel to be a
princess, duchess, or at the very
least a baroness, when they ought to
be hard at work making themselves
useful in the world.
1t is only human nature, perhaps, TIC
build castles in the air, but!
1t seems a shame to me that girls
brought up in the most wonderful
country in the world, the only country
just now where women are given any
think like just treatment, should be
envying the poor women of the Old
World, who themselves, most of them,
would be only toe glad to drop their
foolish titles, which never yet have
saved them from heart-break, and be-
come in return as free and happy as
American women.
All that ceremonial and glitter is on
the outside. If you have hitherto be-
lieved, as they tell me many American
girls have, that the life of a noble
woman is just a sort of mixture of
castles and coronets, and gorgeous
uniforms and court balls, with naughty
noblemen bowling down to you, and
liveried servants waiting on you, and
all the poor common people humbly

himself TO feel it, and this feeling Of
inferiority is so dreadful to him that
he revenges himself for it on any poor
woman who has the misfortune TO
come within his power in any way
The European noblewoman never
has chance to enjoy the companion
ship and society of her own class,
either socially or mentally.
Why is this? Because the average
European man is given no training in
his boyhood that will enable him to
appear at ease in feminine society;
on the contrary, as 1 have just said.
he is really tau Cht to despise women.
The result is that the European
gentleman always and instinctively
avoids the society of ladies Of his own
class whenever he can.
Rich Girl Little Better Off.
There, you have the life and sur
roundings of the poor girl of family
in Europe, the very best she has to
hope for. Do you suppose the rich girl
is any better off? All, no. Of course
the rich girls are in the minority
among the nobility, as they are every
where.
Of course it is much easier for the
rich girl to capture a husband than
it is for the poor girl. The poor girl
must have beauty, or else wonderful
tact, or a very able and skilful moth
err The rich girl does not need any
thing but her dowry. But, once mar
ried, her life goes on just the same as
though she had brought her husband
nothing.
Do you think the Countess Of So
and-So, or the Baroness of This-and-
That is to be envied, oh you American
girls, who go out in the world and
earn your own living, and depend on
no mans favor? Do you still think
you would like to change places with
her?

Why Dying Miser Sent for Him.

A young contractor in a Missouri
town found himself after the war in
dire financial straits. He owned a
few pieces of property, all of which
were mortgaged- mortgage in
each instance being held by an old
man who lived with his one son,
Brocky, in a tumbledown hut that
could not be rented to anyone else.
In the course of time the miser fore
closed, taking over all the contractors
property, which was valued in excess
of the amounts loaned. The contractor
began to pay rent on the house in
which he lived.
Three months after the foreclosure
the miser lay dying. An urgent mes
sage reached the contractor, and he,
supposing that the other, knowing his
end to be near, wanted to make what
restitution he could for the good Of
his soul. hurried down to the cabin.
He found the old man in rickety bed,
covered with a tattered quilt and an
old overcoat. The contractor bent his
ear hopefully to the others lips. The
miser drew a long breath, clutched
the quilt in a skinny hand, and whis-
pered:
"Pay your next months rent to
Brocky."

Mrs. Terhune was grieved and dis

getting out of your way wherever you
go, you must never believe it any
more Underneath, the poor woman
is trying to plan for tomOrrOw's din
ner, and to cope with the high cost
of living, very much as you do here in
America, or she is wondering, per-
haps, how the cost Of Rudolph's new
uniform is to be met, and what she
can go without in order that he may
have it, or whether Victoria has any
chance of capturing the rich Count
Hoffstein. Of course, he is old and
fat, and his past lift hasn't been very
respectable, but he is rich, and If
the poor child marries him she is at
least sure of having clothes to her
back and food to keep her alive.
Simply the Bitter Truth.
You think this sort of thing is only
in the novels? All! no, it is the plain,
ugly truth. And most of the proud
noblewomen who drive past you in the
streets Of foreign cities-if they are
lucky enough to afford a carriage
would tell you that it is an old story
to them.
To be poor and shabby, that is hard
to bear, goodness knows. But to be
poor and shabby underneath, and have
to spend all your days in desperate
struggle to keep up appearances, and
keep the outside prosperous-looking-
to try frantically to keep the world in
ignorance of the true state Of affairs
and never successfully, for the
world always finds out, you can trust
the world for that!-that sort OF life,
my friend, is just hell. Do you think
that is too strong word for lady
to use? There isn't any word too
strong to describe the kind of life
that is spent in trying to maintain a
pretense that deceives nobody.
The nobleman, no matter how poor
he may be, does not worry himself
about it. When he is boy, his par
ents exhaust every effort to save him
from a realization of their poverty,
and when he comes OF age he looks
forward to marrying some rich Amer
lean or bourgeoise heiress, who will,
Of course, be only too proud and happy
to support him and indulge him in all
the luxuries his system requires. Or,
if he is not so fortunate, and his in
dividual fortune does not permit him
to live at court, he will retire into the
country, where he can always shoot
and ride, and once year he can, with
careful management. have a month
or so in town.
OF course, when this happens, his
wife stays in the country. It would
not do to have her along during these
little excursions.

THEIR DIAGNOSIS WAS WRONG

Car Company.

A man got on one of the South side
street cars the other day, slipped car
ticket between his fingers, pulled a
copy of The Indianapolis News out
of his pocket and turning to the sport
ing page was soon busily engrossed,
with the ticket in plain view. Then
in his movements the top of the paper
finally got down entirely over the
ticket. The man read on, not noticing
that the conductor had passed, and not
only had failed to see the ticket, but
had failed to ask him for his fare.
Two young fellows seated near the
end of the car were interested OBJ

The conductor finished collecting
fares and leaned against the rear door
counting tickets. The fellow with the
paper finished the sporting page and,
folding the paper, walked toward the
rear of the car.
AS he passed the conductor he held
out the ticket "One bet you over

swung off the car.
"Whaje think O. that?" asked one of
the two who had felt sure that the chap
was going to beat the car company

From the first the girl in noble
family is taught that her brother is of
the greatest Importance, and that be-
side him she is almost nothing. She
must be prepared to go without al
most everything that would make life
pleasant for her, in order that he may
go without nothing that will minister
to his pleasure or his equipment for
life. For the poor young nobleman,
at the worst, there is always a career
in the army or the navy, an easy life,

can see no help for it. And before
even she reaches that point, she must
go through a long battle of scheming
and planning, employing tricks that

only justify on the ground that it is
