HIS fiIst public aviation was tried on

ground. where a couple ~ months ago
Mr.. Niles had thuhderstruck the Japa-
nese spectators with his trick ridiirs in

arranged with greater care thar on the

occasion.

AND OH, PRAY FOR NE
ADAM AND EVE OF MAINE
 THREATEN TO END LIVES

BOSTON March 20,--Several days ago Mrs, Olive Elliott Estes-the Eve of the Maine woods-received | letter from her husband. who played Adam to her Eve when the swo wens into the woods in bathing suits and lived there sixty days last fall. in which he said he intended to commit suicide.
 The futile search for trace of her husband since the letter was receiv- ed was followed by the receipt of $ letter from Mrs Estes in which she declares she will "do the same as he has done"
 Getehell and Hosmer, Estes at torneys at Lewiston, say they have failed to find any trace of Estes since the receipt of his suicide note.s
 The Adam and Eve of the Maine woods hoped, when. they emarged from theis ssls-impose< ordeal. that vaudevil lying psures and new~pan of reward would be showsfed afon tllep They had hoped for substantial returns for their hardships and sufferings, but these did not materialize. Their ex- periences were described in stories in the Blade while they were in the snowy woods.
 The letter from Esdes, in which he said he intended to kill himself, read:
 My dear loving wife--For love of you I do this For my sake, do not cry. I have thought of this for some time. Last Sunday I heard T preacher on the street say that some found rest in the water.
 'Oh, God. if We could have got the money which We tried so hard to get. We could have been happy then. Tell my friends that I thank them in Gods name for what they have done for us.
 Do not tell dear old papa this, will you, for it would be better for him not to know.
 s'I cannot say any more. Forgive You will pray, and I hope your life now on will be better
 Farewell. my dear. God bless you. And oh, pray for me"

 The new tariffs show an advance of g a ton on general merchandise from Seattle to all ports in South eastern Alaska The rate from Sc attle to Ketchikan will be raised from s to s ton. Seattle to Juneau from s4 to s6 a ton and Seattle tO Skagway from s to S7 a ton
 There are other rates lower and higher than the general merchan- disc rates, and they will be pro pcrsiOnately increased said Mir. Cantelow. Some items in the tar ifs. however, will not De raised at all The increase which our com pany has decided to make is sub stantialIy less than that reported under consideration 8 few days ago.
 VIII Include Wharfage

That is. to quote lump sum for wharfage and freight on allAlaska shipments The rates we have decided to make are less radical than those anticipated" !"
 Mr. Canteloy explained that in creased cost of operation. high char ter values, increased cost of ship repairs, higher prices for all lines of supplies, and the steadily increas- ing value of ship property. had forced his company to advance the rates to Alaska
 Following the announcement of Mr. Cantelow of the advance in freight rates Tuesday came the statement of Harry Brandt, general agent of the passenger department of the Pacific Coast Steamship Co, that the line had also decided to raise passenger fares between Seat tie and ports in Southeastern Al aska-

CORA, Mo-, March 23.-A girl baby that was born to Mir. and Mrs. Stufflebean of this place a few days ago is exciting much curiosity because she was born with two full grown teeth in her lower jaw. The child is normal in every way and weighed seven pounds.

cialist leaders. If the farmers Of
North Dakota are going to agree
to vote for such men as some one
else tells them to support it is
certain that conditions must
grow steadily worse as the years
60 by. What the voters Of
North Dakota need to do, and
this applies to men in every
walk of life, is to devote more
personal attention to the ques-
tons of self-eovernment and to
endeavor to vote more intelli.
gently each year on the questions
and candidates. which come be.

the most important duty Of all tc

of the ills of politics are the di

on the part of the individual
voter.

these other classes of business
have been depended upon chiefly
to further the interests of the
new and growing state. 1t was
only last fall that most of the
state papers spent unlimited
time and money in attempting to
boost the state through the APP
probation Week editions. No
line of business is asked more
regularly to donate its efforts
from week to week for the ben
eft of a community than the
newspaper. The home paper is
the organ which is supposed to
fight the battles of the masses,
even at the expense of business
and danger of determination at
the hands of interested individu-
ais. The course of the Record
has been cast along such lines.
And, when an unknown individ-
ual from some other state comes
along and acknowledges that he
is working amongst the farmers
for so much per head, it is

doubt ifthere is a thing in Mr..
Smiths public history which
should displease eventhe Non.Par
tisanL league 1.-THE NOM Partisan
League itself recently stated that
honesty and experience should
be rewarded. In only one respect
can Smith be unsatisfactory to
the league" He will likely re-
fuse to be dominated by Town

program prepared for the League
by Townley and his four or five
self-appointed assistants. -Four
years ago Mr.. Smith defeated
DR.. Pryse, of Dawson, easily and
in 1914 he had no opposition
whatever. He should be able to
make a mighty good race against
the democrat and the socialist
endorsed from Kidder by the
Non-P Partisan League.
