THE KING f HARRY.

Tinker Bob was interested in the
story of the Lions tail, but he wasn't
the only interested. Some of the
forest birds had been listening very
carefully to the story as Mr.. Mountain
Lion related it to the King.
I might tell o also that Mr..
Mountain Lion was, no friend of the
birds of the forest. as they were for
ever telling from the tree tops the
place where he lived. And all the time
he had been telling the King the
story Of his tail, his mate was thinking.
OF a way to get even with the listening
birds. II they could only get the
King to be their friend. then they
could tell him Of their desire and
maybe he would be willing to help
them out. This was the only way the
Mr.. Lions mate could think Of that
seemed at all possible.
While Tinker Bob's attention was
called away from these mountain
creatures they whined to each other,
but none OF the birds knew what they
said. Tinker had seen a strange
looking creature in the top Of the
tree, and he was so interested in this
peculiar forest dweller hat he did not
notice the whining conversation going
on between the two Lions.
Mrs. Red Robin was on the lowest
limb Of the tree now. for she had
found out that the King didn't intend
to alloy these great creatures to do
anyone harm. Tinker was so inter-
ested in the ~feathered creature who
listened from the tree top, that it was
several moments before he noticed
iony ct the actions Of the other
creatures.
Then he spoke to Mrs. Red Robin.
Said he: What kind OF a fellow is
that perched on the very top limb Of
the tree? What a funny looking face
he has. / didn't know there was such
q creature in all the world. Tell me,
Mrs. Robin. who 1t is?". The King
still watched eagerly the movements
OF this peculiar bird, awaiting the
answer from Mrs. Red Robin. She
could not see who was perched In the
top Of the tree from where she was,

BILL LEMKE HAS.
TO SHOW WHERE
HE NEEDS FUNDS
Appropriation Committee OF
House Passes Resolution
Inviting Him Up
(By Staff Correspondent

Bismarck. N. D., Feb eff At
torney General William~Lemke really
needs extra funds to carry on the
affairs of his office up to July l next
ne can have them without resorting
to public subscription.
Only the members of the house APP
preparation committee must be shown
first.
This is the sense Of a resolution
passed by the committee yesterday in
which the attorney general Is invited
to appear before the committee to
see If he show that money trans
ferred to his account under one of the
bills passed by the house is INSULT
cient for his needs. or that q materia.
part of it is already disposed of 9TH
erwise.
Is willing to recommend that he be
given the special appropriation of
$4,000 for which he and his parti-
sans have been cla1noring ever since
the legislature convened and which
was turned down by the majority Of
the members.
Claimed He Had Too Little.
Since then Mr.. Lemke has claimed
that he did not have sufficient funds
to carry On important litigation for
state, and as a result some of his ar
dent friends have started a subscrip-
ton to raise such funds. a
The house committee feels that this
Is not proper. If Nh. Lemke really
needs the funds in the work of his
office they should be supplied by the
state and not by individuals who have
already paid their share of taxes.
On the other hand if he does no
actually need the money there is no
reason for any one to furnish him
with it..
The Resolution,
All this is fully set forth in the
resolution which is as follows:
Whereas. it is a matter of COM
mon knowledge that a campaign is
being made throughout the state os-
tensibly for the purpose of obtaining
money for the attorney generals de-
partment by calling for popular su b.
scriptions. and
Whereas, it is not the desire of this
committee that the attorney generals
department should in any way be
hampered in discharging it's duties on
account of lack of necessary funds,
and
Whereas. this committee after hav-
ing mad a careful survey of the
matter did conclude that by transfer
ring $9,051.O5 remaining unused in
one of the governors special assist
ant attorney generals funds and that
that amount together with 81. 900,
balance admitted to be on hand from
the regular biennial appropriation for
the attorney generals department
makes available for the use of the

New York, Feb. 23.--Mendel Bells,
the central figure in the notorious

suburb of Kieff, with forty-seven
knife wounds. Bells, poor, unedu-
Gated, a caretaker in a brickyard, was
arrested. blu the evidence against him
was so shadowy that he was dis
charged.
! The Black Hundreds and other anti
Semitic organizations then circulated
the monstrous accusation that Chris
tan blood is used in token .tof the
sacrifice at the Jewish Passover. AZ
report, Of the case was sent to the
imperial court and was returned to
Kief with this annotation: 1.-THE Jew
u De found"
After two years and a half Bells
was arrested again and put on trial
this although a petition addressed to
the Russian government had been
sent by England protesting against
the blood accusation"
h protest was signed by the
archbishop Of Canterbury, the Roman
Catholic archbishop of Westminster.
and many peers Germany and
France followed in strongly worded
concentrations Of the prosecution OF
Bells, but it proceeded.
