Employers R,sht to pl.eharos.


The United States Court Of Appeals,
Sixth circuit, laid down rules govern.
ing masters right to discharge an
employee for misconduct In Carpenter
Steel company ". Norcross, suit for
breach Of contract Of employment.
The court held 1t to be . suficient de.
fence that the employe was guilty Of
the misconduct charged, although
such misconduct was not known to
the employer at the time Of the dis
charge, which was based upon other
alleged acts BY the employe. The
court held that the servant owes the
master the duty Of faithfulness, wheth.i
er expressed In the contract or not,
and any conduct showing an unfaith-
full disposition 10 sufficient to justify
. discharge. The acts proved were
that plaintiff was manager OF the de-
fendant's branch warehouse, where
high grade steel was sold to the auto
mobile trade, and that in entertaining
purchasing agents at the automobile
show In New York he was guilty Of
excessive drinking and committed
other acts Of dissipation and made ad-
vances out Of his deposit account to
employees and customers. The court
ruled that such acts did not constitute
misconduct warranting his discharge
as matter Of law, but raised q ques.
ton Of fact for the Jury.

To have the pains and aches of
a bad back removed-to be en-
tirely free from annoying, dan
lsrous kidney disorders, is,
enough to make any kidney suf-
'fefer grateful. The following ad
vice of one who has suffered
will prove comforting words to
hundreds Of Wahpeton readers:
Charles Kirsch, tailor, Hank
inson, N. d., says: Il was a con
slant sufferer from dull, pains
through the small of my back for
years. My work obliged me to
sit for hours in a bent over po-
5sition and my back got very
lame. I couldn't stand straight
and had to walk all stopped ov-
er. The kidney secretions were
unnatural. On friends advice
/ got q. box of Doan's Kidney
Pills and after I had used four
boxes. l was cured. Some years
ago publicly recommended
Doan's Kidney Pills and am glad
to confirm my endorsement at
this time."

ton Of Gene Stratton- Porter's

decade fair estimate is in the
millions-makes the dramatiza-
ton of the utmost Importance to
the dramatic world.
'Freckles" as drama is
stronger than 'Freckles" as.

and have adventure-onec can see

to the imagination. d. L. Martin
under whose management. the
present tour is conducted, has
made the production Of 'Freckles'
exceedingly. elaborate and has as
senabled company Of unusual
excellence for the presentation of
this charming story play.
The music for the play and the
songs rendered by Freckles are by
the Viennese composer, Anatol
Friedland, and are a novelty from
a musical point of view. The
Woodland Fantasy played during
the play is a masterpiece.

When the committee reported at
the rally on "wednesday evening it
was evident to the people that we
had not only the energetic work of
our own ppeople to thank for the
great victory but the freight of
ficials of the Santa Fe also and
three rousing cheers were given for

and while the first word received
from them was somewhat of Q
damper on the public pulse. theiI
telegram on Sunday morning that
they could close the contract on
receiving a bond signed by forty
citizens for $500 each sent en-
thusiasm all down the line. and In
just eight hours fifty signatures

evidence of the general enthusiasm

a country so bountifully equipped
for the dairy business spells pros

dairy sections of the country to-

Tn. iobt From the Earth.

Many different conjectures as to just
what color light we reflect to our neigh
boring planets have been made from
time to time, and the common consen-
sus Of opinion seems to be that what
ever color 1t does throw is determined
by the vegetation on the surface. 1t
Is not the highest form Of plants that
always produce the greatest effects.
Some of the most striking scenes on
the earth owe their characteristic fea-
lures to MOSES and lichens-for in
stance, the famous crimson cliffs" Of
Greenland, which extend for miles
northward from Cape York and derive
their glorious color from the growth Of
red lIchens that cover their faces. On
the same principle 1t is thought that
the earth's broad expanse Of forest and
prairie land causes our planet to reflect
considerable quantity Of green light,
which at the time of the new moon
spreads n greenish light over that part
of the lunar surface which Is only IL
Illuminated from the earth. - Chicago
