D ALL Y YER S f
MEMORIES.

l remember my mother
In the deep still night time,
When books were on the shelves again
And toys were put away
When the moonlight filled my bedroom
And the shadow-time, the Nighttime
Of happy, sleep memories
Remade the merry day.
How soft the door was opened,
How swift she stole upon me
With covers for my carelessness,
Awake enough to
Her silver dress of silentness
Her wistful brows that won me;
To feel her touch upon me,
And the way she looked at
The book that always slipped from bed
Was smiled upon and taken,
The clothes that lay both far and near
Were folded on the chair,
And last she kissed lightly,
So 1ightly-not to waken,
And her white arms were about me,
And her soft dark hair.
And charger borne after that night
Through spectral lands and lonely,
With elves close riding by me
For some dursSreoned castle-keep,
I thought, "My pretty Mother
wear her favor only"
thought, "My lovely Motherr'
And smiled in my sleep.

and a fat pup for the girls parents
and a stunning new red calico dress
for the girl. She left a%dmonitions to
the would, be bridegroom about his
conduct on her iutilant return and
gave directions to female relatives
about preparation Of the dog SOU and
fried bread for the dainty Josephine.
Sure enough, after an absence of
several days, back she came, with the
shy. spry Josephine perched on the
wagon seat beside her. But woe
That same evening while the young
people were left alnne in a lighted
teepee to become acquainted, and
while Tommy was trying his hest to
play the part of an Indifferent young
man Of the world, the girl began to
weep pitifully and soon the secret was
out.
Mrs. Prairie Dog had told her that
it was the handsome, gallant Stephen
Black Bonnet she was to wed on ar
irving at Oak Creek. Now she found
that the charming Stephen. whom she
had often admired was in Jail. Tommy
White Prairie Dog, the substitute,
was not only a stranger to her. but
a sickly specimen of humanity. Yet
she could not go back home without a
husband after issuing forth with such
a blare of trumpets, so the nuptials
were duly celebrated and a great
feast was arranged in honor of the
same by Mrs. White Prairie Dog.
When Black Bonnet gets out of Jail

and steal the girl who really wanted
to marry him-but ttat will be an

CANADIAN OATS
Big Shipment Bought for Min
neapolis in Spite of
6 Cent Duty

Minneapolis. Dec. 1O.-Minneapolis
Chamber of Commerce firms bought
half a million bushels of Canadian oats
that will come to Minneapolis and pay
the 8 per cent import duty under the
new tariff law, thereby recording the
largest business of the kind since the
first Canadian oats began to trickle
across the boundary after the Under
wood bill went into effect. A move.
ment that the Great Northern, $500"
and Northern Pacific roads have
handled. wherein a car or two of Can
adam oats have appeared on nearly
every incoming grain train from the
boundary line, has brought about
l., 900, 900 bushels into Minneapolis so
far. But trains arriving over the
800" and Geat Northern in the last
few days have had 10 to 90 acres o:
Canadian oats. That the total i'm
portation by Minneapolis will have
reached 400, 900, bushels before the
year ends was the prediction heard on
change today.
T~hirty-four pounds is a legal bushel
in west Canada and 80 pounds ia the
legal weight in Minnesota and therein
the west Canadian producer of oats
finds offset in part for the 8 cents a
bushel duty that he has to stand. The
Van Dusen- Harrington Co., McLaugh-
lin & Co, T. NJ. McCord q Co and
other firms have been identified with
the southward movement.
What the increasing movement will
do to the Minnesota oats producer.
was a question on Change today.
The recent bringing in Of a car of
west Canadian wheat. which sold at
Minneapolis prices after paying 10
cent? a bushel import duty and
freight from a Manitoba point, was
interesting, grain trade men said,
not so much for its own Importance
as in the showing of what might
happen if the Canadian government
takes off the countervailing duty in
January, as some in the trade ex-
pect. But the Canadian government
may lot do that, and no great thrush
of Canadian wheat is expected while
the 10 cent import duty remains in
effect.
The oats. sold at 40 cents, or prac-
~tically the same price as the Min
neapolis figure for the corresponding
quality. are coming in, with payment
of freight and duty as a part of the
calculation.

MCCLELLAN CASE
Heirship Case in Court Before
Judge Smith in Sioux
Falls

Sioux Falls, Dec. 10. Another
chapter in the John Mcclellan heirship
CAGES will begin today when the trial
Of the case will be held before Judge

now been in the courts for about Is
years.
Three sets of claimants have at
at one time or another tried to secure
tho estate. Judge Wilkes in the
county court found for the Ireland
claimants years ago. Judge Jones
and a jury found in favor Of the
Canadian claimants at a later trial
aud former Judge Campbell of Aber-
deem ruled against the Arkansas
claimants.
The case is also in the federal
court and Judge Elliott is expected
t. hand down a decision in a few
days. This is on the question of
whether or not the case shall be tried
in the federal court. The Judge pre-.
viously held that the state had the
right TO intervene.
The estate o involves over 500.
0OO. U. s. q. Cherry of this city is
special counsel for the estate. Attor-
ney General johnson is also in at
tendance at the hearings as is State
Attorney Bergh. Grigsby and Grigs-
by and C. o. Bailey appear for the
