MENELIE's WIFE
AGAIN At LIBERTY.
Remarkable Rise Of Abyssia-
ian Empress, Taltou.

Adds Abeba, Abyssinia. After three
years Of detention Ii Ghebbi Empress
Taitou. the wife Of King Menelik, has
been granted her freedom. The right
full heir to the throne has also been
granted his freedom.
The empress domain will be in the
vicinity Of Adds Abeba.
Empress Taitou Of Abyssinia was a
very interesting character, according
to what information has been learned
about her. Details Of affairs in the
African empire have been difficult to
obtain and even today Europe is not
quite sure whether Emperor Menelik
is dead or alive and still ruling his
country. 1t is known definitely that
the heir to the throne has been desig-
mated in the person of Lig Yassu, the
grandson Of Empress Taitou, but
whether he has taken up the reins Of
government is yet to be ascertained.
Empress Taitou. according to a
Frenchman who journeyed through
Abyssinia some years ago, was wom-
an Of the lower class, as they place
rank In Abyssinia, and she was mar
ried at an early age. Following that
she was married many more times.
and at each stage of her matrimonial
career rose higher
In 1885. when the coming empress
was about thirty-two years old, she
married Menelik, then a king. She was
a wonderful woman and her ability
was recognized. Besides. she was
counted as beauty.
Later Menelik rose to the supreme
step OF emperor. and Taitou rose with
him.
Menelik fell i'll at one time-in fact
one Of the many times that he has been
ill-and while Taitou cared for him
like dutiful wife she carried on at the
same time a conspiracy. the aim Of
which was to place her on the throne
upon the death Of her husband. But
many circumstances operated against
the empress. and Size was driven from
the Abyssinian capital. Adds Abeba,
.MeneAk recovered. aud Taitou,s grand.
son. Lig Yassu. whom she heartily
hated. was proclaimed heir.

From an item in a recent issue of

From an item in a recent issue of
the Great Falls Tribune, Great
Falls, Mont, we see that Andrew G.
Sathre, a former Warren boy,
stands a good chance Of landing the
position of secretary of the United
States embassy of Norway. The en-
tire Montana delegation has joined
in presenting his name to secretary
of state, WI Bryan, and urged his
appointment. Mr.. Sathre has been
an active worker for the democra-
tic party since he became a voter
and even before and is surely en-
titled to this recognition.

A Merry Sleigh Ride.

Last Friday evening, a merry
crowd of young folks from Farley
and Bristlet attended a necktie So
cial in Angus. They were chaper-
oned by a popular young man of the
community, who also furnished a
team and a bob-sleigh for the oc-
casion. After some rather exciting
experiences they reached Angus,
where they spent an enjoyable eve
ming. They returned home at an
early hour, without encountering
any difficulties on the homeward
way. All voted Angus as a good
place to spend the evening and hope
that they can take another such
trip in the near future. But the
question remains to be solved,
How did they get to Angus?'-By
one who was there.

MANOR SCHOOL NOTES

|
The Messiah Chorus met in the
basement of the Swedish Lutheran
church last Monday evening on ac-
count Of the mud on the way to
the college. Next time it will be
easier to get to college because Of
the improvised walk. The Chorus
will meet on Tuesday evening of
next week on account Of the high
school contest on Monday evening.
The Annual Swedish Declamatory
contest will be held in the college
chapel on Friday evening Of this
week. A good program is promised.
The judges will be Mrs. H. P. Holm,
John P. Mattson and Nels E. By
strom. Prizes will be awarded to
the winners Of the contest.
A class of about twenty boys have
taken up music in the normal de-
partment.
The Echoes is planning on MAX
ing short concert tour near the
end of the school year. One of the
features of the Swedish contest will
be piano quartette. There will al
so be number of Swedish songs
by the N. S. C. quartette.
Miss Abrahamson has an evening
class in cooking. The enrolment is
good; but we should like to see
more avail themselves of the op-
portunity of taking up the work.
Prof. A. w. Knock has received a
call to. become the president of
Northwestern College in Fergus
Falls. The offer is a splendid one;
but we hope that Professor Knock
will continue with North Star Col
lege. We need him here.
The Conference pictures taken at
the Swedish Lutheran church have
been sent out. Those desiring pic
lures may send to the college for
one; there are several left Of the
second order.
Mr.. Hans Swanson, the telephone
man, has donated to the physics de-
partment an interesting and valu-
able collection O, telephone mater
ials. Thanks. 81
The Northwestern Echo gave "a
concert in the college chapel last
Friday evening. The room was
filled to the limit. The program Civ
en- was splendid and everyone felt
we'll repaid for coming to hear the
boys. Miss Haglund, the leader,
must be given credit for handling
successfully such big chorus Of
little boys who were out for nearly
a week at such a distance from
their homes. On Saturday morning
the Echo sang at our chapel exer-
Cises.
DR.. John Telleen, a we'll known
pastor, at present missionary to
Porto Rico, will speak in the Swe-
dish Lutheran church Sunday, Ap-
.ril 20.
Look for a copy of the program
to be given at the Swedish contest

Rev. Kenneth DeBercher, former
ly Of this city, now at Rock Island,
Ill, has invented and patented a
self mixing attachment for ordinary
writing pens, by which it is possible
with one dip Of the pen to write a
letter of $50 words. The contriv-
ance will fill a long felt want and
will save a great deal of time to
busy people with a great deal Of
writing to do. While it requires
very little time for each dip Of the
pen, yet in the aggregate it amounts
to a great deal, and besides the pro-
cess often causes break in the
continuity Of thought of the writer.
If Rev. Bescher has found a way to
obyiate this waste, he is public

IN xpensiDe Oatmeal
Shampoo Easily Made
7(The Woman Beantifnn

Those who have been seeking a
shampoo which will really make the
hair soft and lustrous, will be glad to
know Of truly beneficial oatmeal
shampoo which they can prepare
themselves. A teaspoonful OF caxined
oatmeal compound put into cup of
hot water and stirred we'll, makes the
most cleansing and healthful shampoo
to be had. 1t is of creamy consiss.
ency, slightly foamy. but very unlike
the copions lather of preparations and
soaps heavily laden with alkalies.
Alkalies, borax and ammonia may
aid in cleansing the hair, but they also
affect its color and health. Nothing
makes the hair fluffier and glossier
than the oatmeal shampoo, without
making it harsh, brittle or straggly. 1t
doesn't take away the natural oils or
make the scalp scaly and itchy. Many
who use 1t report that they are never
troubled with dandruff now, splitting,
breaking or falling of hair. Fifty
cents will buy good quantity of the
caxined oatmeal compound at any
drugstore.

that even if these things were not so
a christian life was the only truly
happy life an individual could live.
Tonight will be taken up the study
of the spirit of man, that part of
man which is thought to be immort-
ell The speaker will endeavor to
show in this lecture who of the
Bible characters first held the opinion
that man possessed an immortal
spirit, where 1t was taught, the
orinions OF the best writer's, and
'Christ's own teachings on the subject.
The Bible is very plain in dealing with
this topic and the speaker tonight

objects to Concrete Street.

To the Editor of The Gate City:
North Fifth street is to be paved
with concrete at a cost Of several
thousand dollars. Seven inches OF
concrete for paving is wholly an ex-
pertinent. Contractors, city officials,
former street supervisors, city engin-
GERS and everyone connected with
street work admit 1t to be an expert
ment. The residents desire nice
street and will have to pay for 1t. They
have not been consulted in the matter
and a better macadam street is being
removed than the new street will be.
1t seems that where street once paid
for is removed and an experiment
placed in the principal street OF the
north side, the residents should have
someone's word that 1t will be good
