Record Trip Around the World

John Henry Mears, who left New
York Wednesday, July End, 1913. at
IL :43 a. m., intends to break the record
held in going around the world by mod
ern means of travel. He started east
and expects to be in New York in just
IS days.. 81 hours and IS minutes from
the time he embarked.
Mr.. Mears will rass through Dickin.
son on No. 4 Tuesday, August 5th, at
S 40 a. m.
He is bound from Seattle, where he
will arrive August End. He will then
take No. 2, which will wait. if neces.
sary, a reasonable length of time. The
train will then make this delay up be-
tween that city and St. Paul. Mr..
Mears will ride on this train as far as
Chicago before making a change.
Some Of the unique and amusing
things. which make up Mr.. Mears' trip
and bring it under special attenti On,
are the many different trinkets he car
ries. These trinkets were given to him
by friends, and in som cases, were
given as lucky gifts to be returned
when the end of his journey is reached.
Among these is an Indian charm
which he wears about his meek. The
charm was worn during the earthquake
in San Francisco and also escaped be-
ing taken during a stage hold-up.
This is what Mr.. Mears considers his
good luck charm and, with its aid,
hopes to encounter no misfortunes in
his travels.
He also has a..twenty dollar gold piece

CLAYTON IN JAIL AGAIN
HORSE STEALING IS CHARGE

Herald George Twible. stock in
spector for the state of Montana. and fl.
Mullendore, a large stock owner living
near Glendive, we're in New England
the first of the week. MIR. Mullend0re
had about so head of horses STOLEN last
winter and he was here to e if he
could discover if any of the horses were
disposed of in New England. The fame
of this town as a horse market has gone
abroad and it is evident that a large
number of stolen horses have been dis
posed of here.
These gentlemen stated that James
Clayton. who was in New England
several weeks ago with Deputy Sheriff
Chas. N. Davis. assisting the latter in
gathering horses that were supposed to
have been stolen from South Dakota,
had been arrested in Wibaux and is
now the guest of Sheriff Barrett in the
Bowman county bastile.
Messrs. Twible and Mullendore went
from New England to Bowman Tuesday
for tile purpose of seeing Clayton and
trying to get some information about
their horses. Clayton has just recovered
from a serious illness with smallpox
and is in a very weak condition. Clay
ton, whose true name is Charles Suther-
land, is known to many Old-timers.
He formerly worked on the Dude
ranch' in the Bad Lands. He has been
arrested a number of times for horse
stealing and openly processes to hav.
ing stolen horses ever since he was Il
years old. He has given the Bowman
county sheriff a long, hard chase Il
catch him this time. He will be triet
for horse stealing.

FERDINAND lEuTz
TALKS OF BRlQuET1Es

Minot. N. D., July 29th. ferdinand
Leutz. vice president and general man.
aeer of the Hebron Fire and Pressed
Brick Co.. who was in Minot to attend
the laying Of the corner stone of the
new normal school. believes that the
manufacture of briquettes will mark a
new era in North Dakota.
While Mr.. Leutz's company is en-
Gagged in the manufacture of pressed
brick at Hebron, N. D., at present the
company is about to increase its capi-
talization to $50, 900 and it will then
engage in the making of %briquettes on
an extensive scale.
There is absolutely no question
about the practicability of making bril-
QUOTES for commercial and household
use, said Mr.. Leutz yesterday. This
fact has been established beyond a
doubt. A lot of people right around
Hebron have been using them for quite
a while. Last yea we burned them in
our home entirely. Where we used to
use four scuttles of coal we only have
to use n now. and there is very little
,, dirt, if any at all, because ever after
the briquettes are burned out they hold
their shape and the result is that when
you clean the stove there is very little
dust. The byproducts, however, will
be the big thing, for which our cheap
gas we can offer manufacturers grea,
inducements. l look to see North Da.
kota n of the greatest paper making
and manufacturing states in the unior
and the time for this change is not 81
very lar distant either"
The Hebron Brick Co.. is doing 6
tremendous business in pressed brick
Already the company has holdings
valued at more than $500, 900.

MEDICATION OF \ POLICY.

Pres Wilson's wa1chfully waiting
policy toward Mexico while friendly
in form and purpose, has in reality
partaken Of the nature Of a militant
seige, and is proving as effective
against the Huerta government as
thought the guns OF the American
army frowned upon the Mexican cap
ital.
This friendly seige has been effective
in preventing Huerta from obtaining
money, arms, ammunition and food
with which TO carry on the war
against the disaffected. Foreign bank
ers have been slow to advance funds
on the doubtful security Huerta could
offer. the bonds of a government
founded in assassination and failing
to receive the recognition of the United
States. and foreign manufacturers of
arms and provisions have been equally
slow 10 extend credit.
The ambargO placed by the pres
ident on the shipment of the sinews
o fwar from the United states has
combined with the failure of credit
in foreign quarters 10 reduce the
Huertistas To a state of inefficiency and
the rapid approach Of the end was
heralded in yesterdays dispatches.
The retirement of the federal forces
from Chihuahua marks the City of
Mexico as the fOrlorn hope. That
the federals can maintain themselves
in the Mexican capital without assist
ance is improbable.
The inevitable result, as far as
present indications go, is a vindication
of Pres. Wilson's policy, the keynote
of which is 'Watchfully waiting" The
president is succeeding not only in ac-
comprising his purpose but in main
tanning a friendly attitude toward the
people of Mexico and in retaining the
confidence and cooperation of inter
ested foreign powers.

THE REVOLVER.

1t once was the weapon of the strong,
The daring and the bold,
Who left the dull and toiling thrOng
To seek the land of gold;
Ii made all men Of equal height
In realms beyond the law:
1t spoke in many a fair-fOught fight
Where life is rough and raw.
1t rendered justice as was mete
'Twixt Ghibbeline or Guelph.
Where each man stood upon his feet
And made his law HIMSELF
It had some glory at its best,
Some glamOr of romance
Amid those Winners Of the, West
Who dared to take a chance.
IL once was weapon of the brave,
But in this later time
The coward and the sinking knave
Have made it black with crime;
Ii is the weapon Of the pack
That stalks. by night. its prey,
Then shoots the victim in the back
And loots-and runs away.
1t is the comrade and the mate
OF those who beat and slug,
OF murderers degenerate.
The gangster and the thug.

"Oh, Warren. don't-don't let's talk

Mother will you button me up?
Warren is shaving, and he doesn't like

laugh, which she tried to make care
less.

Her mother drew her to the light,

There was nothing in her voice or

you say so in the beginning, without
lying about it and saying you misun-
