the prairies. On all sides are the
10000 acres of rich lands owned by
the Benedictine order of monks, who
have charge of the abbey and its var
ious departments.
Besides a good college plant, where
classical, commercial and musical
courses are given, the order has err
ected one of the finesh churches in
the state, richly embellished. electric
lighted and deliberately furnished.
The order owns its power plant,
operates industries necessary to sup
ply the institution and mines the coal
supply used from its own mine.
Richardton is furnished light and
power from the abbey's electric plant
and the weekly paper printed in Ger
man is published from the modern
printing plant under the direction Of
the Benedictine monks.

Auditor Jorfgenson is commended
for the efficient aid rendered the ap-

The ruling of the court leaves the
tax commission with $4,000 for the
biennial period beginning July, 1915,
for clerks, stenographers and experts.
With a year yet to go, the commits
sion has $685. on hand. The present

alleged appropriations claimed by the
tax commission to be standing appro-
priations for its use under Chap. 303
Session Laws 1911, and for an alleged
unexpended balance of appropria-
tons. The auditors return discloses
that he has credited the commission
with all the appropriations provided
for it by the 1915 legislature. The
commission claims that the 1915 ap-
preparation is invalid because alleged
to have been enacted as contemplated
allowances for a one-man tax commits
sion, which the legislature assumed
would be enacted by Senate Bill 261,
failing of passage in the closing days
of the last legislature.
The. first item of Subdivision IS of

appropriation bill, has been so held
void in State ex rel, Packard v. Jor-

CD Sections and of Chap. 3O3
of the S. l.. 1911 did not constitute
an appropriation for the tax commits
sion Of more than $4,000 per annum,
for all the items therein included.
60 The form of the appropria-
tons made under Chap. 303 S. L. 1911
was such as to leave no unexpended
balance of appropriations remaining
over as continuing appropriation
for the use of the commission in the
event that such sums were not all
expended during such biennial period.

as to both the validity of Subdivision
Is and that there is no unexpended
balance from the preceding biennial
period to which commission is en-
titled to credit, is sustained. This
proceeding is dismissed without

water to see whether one OF the piers.
then in course OF construction. had set.
While he was engaged in this work a
great iron cylinder subsidized little.

masonry. When. on signal being Civ.
en-, another diver came down he found
his unfortunate comrade imprisoned
under water without hope of escape.
After few moments Of mute despair
and narrowing uncertainty a speech
less decision was arrived at. and the
newcomer proceeded with chisel and
hammer to hack off his unhappy com
panion's hand at the wrist. The pris.
oner was thus liberated. but died soon
after reaching the surface from the
shock. Never, l think. has an opium
eater in his dreams imagined a more

sTAR SYSTEM IN BASEBALL.

The Baltimore American asks lis interest
in baseball on the wanef'' In comment the
paper notes that interest on the part OF news
readers and crowds in front of bulletin boards
seems as keen as ever but that attendance at
games the country over shows a great falling
off people are using their afternoon leisure II
playing games themselves or are driving their
cars if they have cars; they are satisfied simply
to know the result. The American believes
the motion pictures and the added opportuni-
ties for outdoor sports are hurting the national
game But the trouble is that baseball is no
longer the national game; it is still the most
national of outdoor amusements but it has be-
come only an amusement. Time was when
the crowd watching game had expert knowl-
edge of it's points gained back lots; now
such expert knowledge as exists is gained from
the sport pages of the newspapers. More and
more the public will insist on expert playing;
there will be diminishing patronage for aver
age playing and baseball will travel the path
that all amousements travel to a precarious
support except for star system, and this star
system will play the same havoc with baseball
that it has with our theaters.
