beverage and the tablet is a conun.
drum for the legal department.
The tablets are manufactured by a
Cincinnati firm, and their Duluth
agent has written the attorney gen
eral to ascertain it the sale Of the
tablet is this state would be viola
ton of the liquor laws.
Attorney General Linde has writ
ten for a sample supply of the tab
lets, not that he intends to try them
out on any of his friends, but for
purely business purposes. The sam
pies will be submitted to Prof. F. +.
Laid, state chemist, for analysis,
before any opinion on the matter is
given out.
There is a strong likelihood that
the samples will not come under the
pure food laws; then again there is
a strong possibility that they may,
in which case they will doubtless be-
come immensely popular.

COURTENAY NAN Wins
SUITlAGAINST BANK

jamestown, July 23.-The hearing
of the case of the Stutsman County
Bank of Courtenay against William
Jones, a suit for a recovery of pay
ment on five notes alleged to have
been executed by Mr.. Jones and aggre-
gate about $1,000, was concluded
Thursday night. The jury brought in
a verdict for the defendant, who
claimed that the notes were forgeries
and did not bear his genuine sigma
ture.
This is the second case in which
forgery is claimed by Mr.. Jones, the
first case being that of the Bank OF
Buffalo, Mimi, in which he was given
a verdict as reported some time ago.
In the case brought against him by
the Stutsman County Bank many wit
nesses testified, about % for the de-
PENDANT and four for the plaintiff, in
addition to G. G. Curtiss of Valley
City, a handwriting expert who testi'
fed that in his opinion the notes bore
Mr.. Jones' genuine signature. A large
number Of other instruments were
presented for comparison and some "a
or so of such notes, checks and papers
were submitted to the jury to examine
without or with magnifying glass
The jury was out three hours in it's de
alterations.
Among those who TESTIFIED for the
bank was Loran Nichols, former pres
fdent, who said that he had seen Mr.
Jones sign the notes in question or
Dec. 10, 1913. The notes were dated
November /, 1913. Mr.. Jones, his wife
George Thompson and Mr.. Crawford
testified that on that date Mr.. and Mrs
Jones were at the Crawford home dur
ing the morning and until nearly mid
night and could not have been at the
bank between 4 and o'clock in the
afternoon, as alleged by Mr.. Nichols

BLACK RUST IS
1 MARKET FACTOR

Minneapolis, July 27.-Black rust
pushed itself into the foreground again
as a market factor. The grain trade
had been sincerely hoping that rust
could continue to be ignored, but the
samples of wheat shown on Change
today make that impossible.
This is not to say, however, that any
damage has been or will be done. But
while black rust in an active stage is
present from 10 days to three weeks
before harvest, it is question Of
watchful waiting. Early wheat in
southern Minnesota and South Dakota
will not be damaged in any event, and
blue stem may not p-, but the chance
that it can be and that the crop far
Their north also can be, naturally
causes apprehension. That is about
all that can be said of the rust and
crop situation at present.
The market, however, is another
matter. There is nv wheat to trade
on, so every sale is a short sale.
Therefore price fluctuations cannot re-
feet the crop condition, but rather
the cautiousness, fears, or skepticism
of traders. Then, too, speculation an
ticipates and frequently guesses
wrong; hence the wide price fuctua-
tons.

THE DISSlPATiONS OF
CHRISTY MATTHEWSON

In the August American Magazine
Ring w. Lardner, the Chicago base
ball humorist, writes about Christy
Matthewson, the pitcher for the New
York Giants, who has pitched and won
more games of baseball than anyone
in the big league today. In the course
of the article Mr.. Lardner describes as
follows Manager McGraw's troubles in
taking care of Matthewson:
1T must be awful strain on Nc
Graw, handlin' this bird. Unless he
keeps his eye right on him, he's liable
to sneak up to his room some night
and play a game O. checkers. That
amt all, neither. If McGraw is asst out
to somebody's house or to go to the
theayter, he don't enjoy himself on &C.
count O. worrying. How does he know
that Matty amt smokin' see-gar or
lappin' up a dish of ice cream? Mac
can't never leave the hotel without
bein' a-scared that Mattll buy maya
zine and read it. And l s'pose that
oncet or twicet season he goes all to
pieces and chews stick O. gum.
II don't know if the job of managin'
him is worse off the field or on. When
he's out there in the box he seems to
lose his head entirely. With the bases
loaded, they's always chance that
Matty'll make guy pop out instead O.
within him. Then, with man on
first base and nobody down and the
batter sent up to bunt, he's li'ble to
forget he's a pitcher and try to\do a
,, little fieldin'. You can't never tell.
Maybe he'll run in and grab the bunt
and foce man at second base, in
stead O. standin' still like see-gar
sign and hopin' somebody else'll do
somethin'. Yes, sir, l bet McGraw
don't sleep wink on the road, or to
home neither, from frettin' over this
guy and wonderin' how he can learn
him somethin,."
