frowning cliffs which rose from the

Breaks were resplendent under the

three-vear-old twin sisters. Texas and
Tennessee, had died of spinal menin-
gifts. the children's scourge of the
southern mountains. Ulysses. hand
some. sturdy fellow. had loved the
children tenderly. but his grief was
soon over, and after the first few
months. it fretted him that Sapphvra
could not be as light of heart as he.
" on don't sing around like you

Hits about as lively around you as
bein' around wooden flgger."
"Ill try to peert up, Lyssie," she
faltered. Gimme a little more time
to git over missin' the little uns."
But Ulysses secured work with a
Juniper company twenty-five miles
away. AT first he had come often.
but his last absence has heightened
into six months.
Sapphyra, daily expecting him hack,
remembered that he liked pretty
dishes, and to secure money for tho
purchase of green and gold dinner
set she had woven for sale great
lengths of linen toweling. the thread
spun from the flax she had grown.
And, though she did not acknowledge
1t to herself, her visit to the county
meeting" was primarily to sell her
toweling.

THE HISTORICAL MEETING.

Today the Mississippi Valley Histori-
cal association begins in Grand Forks
Its seventh annual meeting. which will
occupy three days. and during which
there will be held meetings of the
North Dakota Historical association
and Of several subsidiary oreaniza-
tions. - -
This is one of the important histor-
ical meetings Of the country Its aim,
like that of similar associations else
where, is to stimulate interest in the
collection of valuable historical data.
in the study of the development of the
human race on this continent, and to
place in permanent form records OF
the progress which has been made
while the collection of data from the
best sources IS still possible
We are accustomed to regard the
central part of the continent as new.
but from the standpoint Of cxplura.
ton by the whi G man the greo. CEN
trail basis reaches nearly as far back
into the past As does the eastern sea-
board. While settlement was still
hugging the seaccast. and Immigrants
regarded fearf"lly and timidlv the
great forests. and mountains just a few
miles inland. ad, enturous spirits were
exploring the Great Lakes, tracing the
course Of the mighty Fathers df Wa
tiers, and collecting knowledge which
was to be the basis for the formation
of great empire later on. Much
is known OF wha. these early explor-
srs did. And through the efforts of
our historical societies much that
would otherwise be lost is being plac-
ed where it will be available to stu
dents for all time.
And back of the explorations Of
the white man lie the experiences of
the aboriginal tribes now fast passing
into oblivion. Our historians are to-
day collecting information Of the life
Of these primitive people which has
not heretofore been accessible, and
which Is exceedingly valuable. 1t is
expected that the meeting at Grand
Forks will be attended by many dis
tinsuished men from distant cities.
The program is an interesting and va
ried one, and the people Of the city
are glad indeed to have with them a
body Of men of this class.

She darted to its rescue. the earth

clutching at the air. she fell over the
precipice:--
When Sapphyra. with face blanched
with horror. crept across the road

cliff, the girls skirt caught firmly on
a projection Of rock. The girl turned
white, agonized face up toward
her.

HOME RULE CARRIES.

Irish home rule. so far as. parlia-
naentary action is. concerned. is an ac-
corn plished fact. The British house
of commons Yesterday passed the
home rule bill for the third time, and
under the new law which deprives the
house of lords OF its unqualified power
Of veto. the bill now becomes a law
notwithstanding any unfavorable ac-
ton that the upper house may take.
Coincident with the passage of the
act come reports Of the probah hility
Of armed resistance on the part Of the
Ulster section of Ireland. The form
which the opposition is expected to
take, according to the present pro-
gram. Is that of the organization of
provisional government in Ulster,
and refusal to recognize the authority
of an Irish parlia or the validity
of any, acts for It's establishment. The
establishment OF an organization
which undertakes to exercise the au-
thority OF government would, of
course, be an act Of rebellion. The ap-
parent intent of the national authori-
ties is to suppress such movement
by force II necessary. It is difficult
to see how any settlement can now be
reached without bloodsked. Whether
the conditions will develop.into real
mine. Probably much that has been
said and done has been based on the
belief that the other side would not,
at the very last proceed to extremi-
ties. In the meantime. each side has
been establishing itself more and more
firmly on its program, and. even II
the counsels Of wisdom and. modera-
ton prevail with the leaders, so much
passion has been aroused that disor-
der is almost sure to result.
Nineteen centuries ago the Chris
tian religion was formulated. with
peace on earth. good will toward
mem as its signal, ana. the golden rule
as its basis OF conduct. And FOR nine
teen centuries men who profassed this
religion have fought like beasts over
IT. precise meaning and the details Of
it, theology. Thrones have been oN-
efturned, national boundaries have
been changed, cities have been laid
waste. battles have been fought, hun

For moment father did a hard
piece of thinking. The name Gwen,
dolyn sounded to him like a fire
whistle out of tune. but he knew bet
ter than openly to oppose mother.
Therefore he grew foxy.
"Gwendolyn! Gwendolyn!" he mus
ingly replied. II like that a whole lot,

girl named Gwendolyn, and he

STUDENTS TO RAISE MONEY.
Potato Crop TO Aid in Taking A. and
N. Boys TO Frisco.

Students at the Texas Agricultural
and Mechanical College here who are
planning to attend the Panama-Pacific
Exposition in San Francisco in 1915,
have decided to cultivate five acres OF
ground in sweet and Irish potatoes
the proceeds from the crops to be
placed in a general expense fund.
The crops have already been planted
and each morning the students work
the ground from to 8 o'clock. They
Vare doing all of the labor under the
supervision of General Blackmon.
The trip to San Francisco which the
members of the student body expect to
take will require about three weeks
and will be made in special trains.
AT present some 500 students have
imade plans to go. Ike Ashburn, pub
licity agent of the college, will be in
charge of the trip.

Our advice is to buy oats and wheat

and the coming drouth. aided by the
Mexican difficulties, promise higher

buy larger quantities OF oats to feed

fall In a general way. But as he does
not pse weather records by which to
check and test his theories his system
is very defective and makes too many
mistakes. Fosters Weather Bureau
took up Blake's idea and has worked
out complete system. which is much
more extensive and differs greatly
from Judge Blak9s system.
But he was pBneer and made an
important discovery forty years ago
and he should have the honor OF the
discovery. We also use complete
system based on planetary influences
and combine the Blake system with
our own discoveries. We have the
facilities for weather work and our
experiments, for the purpose of I'M
provement, are continuous.
