TO TEST SUNDAY CASE
BALL LAW IN COURTS

Minot, May %. A warrant has been
issued upon an information filed by
States Attorney Nestos for a large
number Of baseball players of the city,
charging them with violation Of the
penal statutes of the state in playing
baseball on Sunday. The complaint
upon which the information is based
was signed by A. F. Bacon.
The point which will be raised by
the defendants is whether or not base
ball is sport within the meaning Of
the North Dakota statutes. Courts of
other states which have ruled upon
statutes similar to that of this state
have decided both ways and there is
in fact no uniformity among the de-
cisions on the point. The supreme
court Of this state has never had the
matter before it.

SUBMARINE "a ONLY 20 n
FEET FROM SURFACE

+ Honolulu, May. 26.-The use of air
to tighten the submarine FL in the
final effort to drag the disabled war
vessel to the drydock, probably will
be resorted to, it was said today.
Work Of raising the submarine,
which contains the bodies of the crew
who lost their lives when the craft
went to the bottom more than two
months ago, was halted temporarily
yesterday by heavy swell which
parted two of the lines attached to the
hulk.
A scow will be brought alongside
the submarine when it is raised, to re-
ceive the bodies of the crew. Orders
have been issued excluding the public
from the scene when the bodies are re-
moved. ...~. 49,,
The F-4 has now been dragged with
in $50 yards of the harbor entrance
and lies only 40 feet below the sur
face.

on SECOND THOUGHT

ON SECOND THOUGHT
have kicked about the taxes, as lot
Of people do;
I've often said l wondered -7hat our
land was coming to;
I've kicked about the railroads and be-
walled the reckless way
That cash is sometimes handled, which
commuters have to pay.
But in spite of my misgiving
About arbitrary rates,
I'm mighty glad I'm living
In these old United States.
I've bewailed the tipping evil in pa
thetic flights of song;
And expressed the sad opinion that all
graft is very wrong.
From gunner to philanthropists I've
scanned the social scale
And criticized my country in a mel
ancholy vail.
Yet my JOY can't be hiding,
AS afar strange terror waits
That l chance To be residing
In these old Uni,ed States.

MANY INMATES OF PEN
SEEK THEIR RELEASE

Bismarck, May 25.-Nearly one half
of the inmates of the North Dakota
penitentiary are not satisfied with
their lot in life and are looking for re-
lease. At least there are over one
hundred of the 264 inmates who have
put in an application for pardon be-
fore the pardon board which meets in
the Office of Governor Hanna June q
The crimes for which the applicants
are serving time range all the way
from burglary in the third degree to
murder in the first degree. There are
a number who are chronic applicants,
coming up every time the law allows,
these work every possible dodge to
get the sympathy of the board, have
their aged relatives or young children
appear for them, employ attorneys tc
tell their story and appear themselves
when it is allowed. The corridors Of
the capital will for few days be fill
ed with black robed women, somber
faced men and weeping children, al
intended to have their effect on the
feelings of the pardon board.
The board consists of Governor
Hanna, Chief Justice Fisk, Attorney
General Linde and Emil Scow of Bow
man and G. H. Garrett of St. Thomas
the latter being appointed following
the resignation of E. Smith-Pete
of Park River, who refused to be {
party to the granting of pardon tt
former state treasurer who had beer
convicted of embezzlement.

INDIANS like TIE
NORWEGIAN FLAG

Devils Lake, N. D., May 27.-1t was
only comparatively short time ago
that Rodman Wanamaker's expedition
of patriotism to the American Indian,
visited Devils Lake IN common with
every other city in The United States
having an Indian reservation tribu-
tary. With all the dignity BETTING an
occasion of the kind an elegant Ameri-
can flag was hoisted up flag pole by
the Indians themselves, previous to
which they went through the cere-
mony of kissing the stars and strips
and swearing allegiance to the con-
stitution of United States. The idea
was fine and was carried out at the
expense of thousands of dollars to Mr..
Wanamaker, private palace car car
rying delegation, including staff
photographer, to every reservation in
the country. g..
But that didn't stop the Indians of
the Devils Lake reservation this week
from demanding and purchasing every
Norwegian flag in Devils Lake for a
big Memorial day Indian celebration
which will be held OH the reservation.
The store keepers who were unfor-
tunate enough to be loaded with Nor
wegian flags, after stocking up for
the Seventeenth of May celebration,
were decidedly fortunate this week,
for the Indians would have no others.
An effort to explain that no flag
would be appropriate on Memorial day
save the American stars and strips,
availed nothing. The particular de-
sign of the Norwegian flag, with it's
striking red background, was what
attracted their attention. AS matter
of fact they wanted flags. If the Chin
csc emblem had been handy and
they liked it as we'll, it would have
been selected. ..a

Whent the evening shade is fallin' at

An Teller rests from labor, smokin.

There's nothing does him so much
good, be fortune up or down,
As the little country paper from his
Old Home Town.
It ANTS a thing Of beauty and it's
prints not always clean,
But it straightens out his temper
when feller's feelin' mean;
It takes the wrinkles of his face an
brushes off the frown,
That little country paper from his
... Old Home Town.
1t tells of all the parties and the balls
of Pumpkin Row,
Bout who spent Sunday with who's
girl, and how the cropsll grow,
An how it keeps Teller posted who's
up and who is down,
That little country paper from his
Old Home Town.
Now, like to read the dailies and the
story papers too,
And at times the yaller novels and
some other trash-don't you?
But when I want some other readin'
that'll brush away frown,
I want the little paper from my Old
Home Town.

DON'T MAKE DRUDGES
OF BOYS AND GIRL s

In the current issue Of Farm and
Fireside an Ohio woman makes the
following frank comment on how to
keep boys and girls on farms:
Don't get the idea in your head
that you must raise your children as
you were raised. Times have changed
since we were kids, and we must
change with them to make a success
in life. Give them all the education
you can afford. Don't think that be-
cause you received only few years
schooling and got through life all
right your children can do the same.
above all, don't make drudge out
of the boy or girl, working them from
morning till night, never stopping to
think that they are not strong enough
for the amount of work you are CON-
polling them to do. Most men won't
put a colt to work until it is old
enough to stand it, and then do so by
easy stages; but parents turn right
around and put the boy to working
full day long before he is able to do
so. 1t seems strange that some men
have more consideration for a colt
than for their own children. Many
fathers see in their boys way to
help them save and grasp all they can,
and never think of the boys pleasure
or comfort Is it any wonder, then he
gets tired Of staying at home and
branches out for himself? Generally
the parents blame the boy. They new
er stop to think that had they treated
the boy right he would still be at
home. Give him a good room and
house he can enjoy"

THE VIOLET

Down in green and shady bed
A modest violent grew; ."..
Its stalk was bent, it hung it's head,
AS if to hide from view. ...
And yet it was a lovely flower,
Its colors bright and fair;
1t might have graced rosy bower,
Instead Of hiding there.
Yet there it was content to bloom,
In modest tints arrayed;
And there it spreads its sweet per
fume,
: Within the silent shade.
Then let me to the valley go,
This pretty flower to see;
That I may also learn to grow .
In sweet humility. ..

\ The Kensal Journal takes a hopeful
view, of the business outlook. It says:
while conditions the United States
over are anything but bright, there
is no lodging the fact that the north
west is in better shape today than
most any other part OF the country
In talking with men who are well
posted, we learn that there is a
brighter outlook and more business
being transacted in North Dakota
than any other state. This should be
some reason for encouragement

will come out with flying colors."
