Mission that the news service is crippled
Iere it is:
Conveyed by one of the editors of

moral mentor, the first group of per-
missionaries from Section One arrived
here yesterday. In the party were
Deacon Wolfe, Smiley Dickinson.
Venticinque Reiser, Tidy Connect and
a young millionaire named Salter.
"What do you think of our fair lit
tie Eternal Cityf" asked the Mayor
Of Rome, who greeted the young per-
missionaries as they were studying
the ruins at the Apollo.
Eternal is a misnomer'. quoth
Deacon Wolfe. "Any place that closes
up at IL p. NJ. should not be called
ETERNAL.
'Did you go out over the Appian
Way7" asked the Mayor.
"Yes, but I prefer the B and o.,
said Salter, jingling a few thousand
newly gained lire in pocket. Cant
buy you something's I'm dirty with
money.
"Say, Mayor" broke in Dickinson,
"do they have Sunday baseball at the
Colosseum? Our guide told US to-
day that the Tiber Giants and the
Quirinal White So1 are tied for the
pennant in the Palatine league.
"Your guide was spoofng you, re-
piled His-Honor. Baseball is a dead
one in Rome. If you want outdoor
sports, you might watch a pyrotech-
mic display of the Nero Fireworks
Co., OF spend an afternoon at the Cir
Gus Mayimus".

summer, said Reiser. Besides I
can't spend money on idle amuse-
ments. 1 lost twenty-five lire last
night.
"Have you been to Naples. Pompeii
and Vesuvius yet, the travellers were
asked.
"Vesuvius" said Dickinson, "re-
minded me of one night in Florence.
"And Pompeii is far from being a
live one, Wolfe broke in. "Say:

"They need traffic officers in Pom

Well, Anyhow, Charlie Says 1t Happened

We xould't tell this on Charlie
Arrott but he tells it on himself
Besides, he'll be on his way home by
the time this appears, 50 what's the
differencef
For reasons not essential to this
yarn, he left Florence several eve
;.ings after the group Of permission

partment he occupied with num-
Der of Italian officers, a middle-aged
and severe Italian spinster, and her
white poodle, was dose, crowded and
uncomfortable.
Some Of the officers lighted eiga-
rettes. Charlie didn't have one. He
touched a match to connection of
garlic and cabbage shaped like a
cigar.
After which things began to hap
pen.
Business of shifting by Italian
spinster. Then more shifting, fol-
lowed by action. Before Charlie
realized what had happened, the
afore- mentioned spinster had reached
across the laps of two officers,
plucked the cigar gently but firmly
from Charles mouth and tossed it
out of the window.
By nature Charles Arrott is one Of
the mildest of men. Once aroused,
however, and a mountain lion is
canary bird by comparison. Much
less gently but just as frnly, Charlie
hoisted the poodle from the spinsters
lap and chucked it out the window
in the wake of the cigar.

all their equivalents in Italian came
from the throat of the maiden lady,
aided and abetted by the officers.
Somebody pulled the alarm signal.
The train stopped. The guard APP
peared, accompanied by half the pop
ulation of Central Italy.
Finally a parade started toward
the back-end of the train.
Charlie followed the procession.
His gentle instincts had once more
become uppermost and in dulcet tones

All, now comes the approach to
the end of the story. The moon was
shining dimly, casting irredescent
rays of moulten silver on the steel
rails. 1t was possible 10 see a quar-
ter Of mile down the track.
Pattering doggedly toward them, a
white furry object could be seen. AS
it approached they easily made it out
as the tiny poodle. There was some
thing in its teeth which glowed like
a living coal.
Yes, gentle reader, you have
guessed the truth. In the mouth Of
the poodle dog was Charlie Arrott's
cigar.

l. Grasshopper bomb. Inventor,
James Baker. Purpose, to destroy
the wheat crops of Germany and
Austria. Mr.. Bakers blue prints in
dictate that an ordinary French
Soixante-Quinze shell may be adapted
with q few minor changes. A hole is
to be drilled behind the fuse cap into
which grass hoppers are\ inserted.
Mr.. Bakers researches into the life
history of the grasshopper lead him
to believe that a sufficient number OF

gated from the time the shell left the
lannon's mouth until it landed on
enemy soil to destroy one and three
quarters acres of wheat.

make it possible for men who must
pass through rooms occupied by

Thinkers to reach their destination
without soiling shoes, busting Sims,
or disturbing cooking utensils. In
ventor, Robert Reiser.

tor, the editors Of the Come Sta. Pur-
pose, to make those fellows who
promised to write poems and other

MARRIED BY THE KAISER'S ORDER

Loveess, indeed, was the marriage in 1906 Of
Bertha Krupp, .Germany's cannon queen, to the
former young Prussan diplomat, DR.. van Bohlen
und Halbach that nominal director of the great
death factory at Essen. -.
To every decent minded man and woman there
is something repulsive in entering the sacred
state Of matrimony by order. Today Bohlen and
Bertha Krupp are man and wife, tied together
irrevocably, simply because their marriage was by
order Of the kaiser.
Millions of marks were lavished to make the
ceremony the most talked of function in the world
at the time. Kings emperors, statesmen, diplo-
mats and notabilities of every nation showered
their gifts and congratulations upon the young
couple Both the kaiser and kaiserine which fol-
nent figures in the round of festivities which fol-
lowed the actual imposing ceremony. Yet me-
thinks Bertha Krupp would have sacrificed much
of the wealth which surrounded her to have been
able to nestle in the arms of a man she loved.
1t was known in secret service circles that when
the kaiser first mooted the idea of marriage be-
tween his god-daughter and Won Bohlen both in
turn, separately and together, protested against
the marriage. They had not spark of affection
for each other Indeed the hearts of both dictated
in other directions
8 but MS majesty was ODOuFate. he nau IlOC, He
said, decided upon the step without the most
careful consideration. Friedrich Alfred Krupp had
left no male heir. The name of Krupp must be
perpetuated. He had looked around, but could not
find more suitable man for this high mission
than Bohlen with his inventive genius his unsur-
passed knowledge of explosives his wonderful
grasp of the intricacies of Krupps with which he
had been so long and honorsby associated. There
fore it was the imperial will that, whatever their
personal feelings may be- they must sacrifice them
selves for the fatherland t. s..-.
What has the result been? Love is utterly un-
known in the Villa Hugel There is everything
that money can buy but love. Bohlen, also by
order of the kaiser, added the name of Krupp to
his own, and is known as Krupp Won Bohlen but he
and his wife are no more to each other than the
merest business partners.
Always studiously polite to each other, they
necessarily have to be seen together and keep up
a pose TO deceive their world They seldom, if
ever, quarrel, but they have not thought or
sympathy in common, and In the sanctity Of their
own apartments treat each other with lofty in

terms Of it's own extensive program, without first
floating large quantity of state bonds -
Who, pray, is going to buy bonds offered for that
purpose under the sanction of existing North Da
kota laws? .:-- ~
Leaders of the league assert the people of North
Dakota approved at the recent election a proposed
constitutional amendment under which the priv
lege of the state to go into debt is greatly broad
ened and that in this alleged amendment is to be
found full sanction to issue the necessary bonds.
The state canvassing board has recorded by ma
jority vote it's Endorsement of this view.
Saying thing is so does not make it so-a fact
that is of peculiar interest to investors in any kind
of bonds More competent authority than the
league leaders and majority of the state canvass
ing board takes the position that the proposed
amendment in question was not approved at the
polls. Embraced in this authority is the North
Dakota state constitution itself. This document
plainly prescribes that no proposal becomes part
of the constitution unless it receives majority
of all the votes cast at the general election Five
of the leagues proposals, including the one to
widen the states power to obgate itself in debt,
failed to receive such majority. Despite this
fact the league bosses and the canvassing board
declare the proposals approved because they re-
ceived majority of the votes cast upon the spe-
cifc questions involved.
Justice James w. Robinson, elected member of
the North Dakota supreme court two years ago by
voters of the league, is one who announces in ad-
vance of prospective formal decision by that
tribunal, that the five proposals were rejected un
der the terms of the constitution. He calls timely
attention to the fact that even if the present
pree court, or that court as it will be constituted
next month"; should uphold the action Of the can
vassing board, its decision would be subject to
pudiation and reversal few years hence with
change Of the courts personnel.
"The result isl he adds, that purchaser Of
state bonds or any person acting under the ques-
tionable amendments will have to be wary and
take his own risks, regardless of any decision"
Justice Robinson's informal discussion is inter-
esting and important, though it scarcely was
needed by prospective bond buyers unless by those
who have childlike faith in the infabiity of the
Nonpartisan League and the judgment Of the men
who steer it's destinies.
We are reminded in this connection that various
states of the Union have blue sky" laws and COM
missions created to administer these laws 1t
would be novel experience for one of these COM
missions to pass upon the admissibility of bonds
offered for sale by sister state, but the thing
seems possible in the case of these proposed North
Dakota bonds. Asa matter, of fact, there probably
is no business man Of sound judgment in North
Dakota who believes the bonds could be sold under
the circumstances Minneapolis Tribune.
