of the Psychologist, but also of the

fugitive lines:
"She is the darling OF my heart
And she lives down in our alley"
Let it serve in lieu OF all epitaph
in surroundings OF sparkling gayety,
for in some respects Sally is more
frivolous than the "Follies" them
selves.

much in its world esteem to the in
fuence of its literature. Some day
it will be moved to add to its rever-
ent solicitudes an anthem seeking
divine protection for its poets, for

treated. G
AS a matter of fact, had the late
and impractical Mr.. Carey been
present he would probably have been
a disturbing influence in the cal
culations Of Mr. Edward Royce. who
staged" the production, whatever
that means. If he is responsible
for some of the quips and sure-flre
episodes he is entitled to all possible
respect as an old stager.
II is after all on personalities and
not on ingenuities or originalities

recognition it has had as de luxe

Railroad Claims Rates on Coal
Abn0rmally Low

St. Paul, Dec. 5.-Present freight
rates on Ignite coal shipped from
North Dakota are abnormally low
and should be increased in justice
to shippers Of other commodities,
said statement issued here today
under the signature Of three North
west railroads.
The statement. which was signed
by the Great Northern, Northern Pa
cific and the 500 line was in reply
to arguments made by Representa-
tives Of the Ignite mining industry
in their application to the Interstate
Commerce Commission for suspen-
sion of rates proposed on lines in
this territory.
The commission has suspended the
proposed increase until April.
The railroads content that the pres
ent low rates are based on charges
established in 1918. The statement
says that the rates are actually and
relatively lower than the rates
charged for the transportation OF
coal in other states"

MURDER CASES

Two Courts Decline Jurisdic.

District court, which opened here
yesterday, has three "orphan" muir

They are against Ennis Walter Tay-

jointly, on charge of numbering
NJ. K. Bowen, a Golden Valley ranch
or.
A.fourth man, Bert Offley, declar-
ed by officials to have been the prin-
cipal in the case, was tried for MUIR
der before jury at Hettinger and
acquitted. Subsequently the cases
WERE transferred to Burleigh county
and Judge Nucssle, then district
Judge, dAalined to assume jurisdic-
ton. However, the papers remained
here and the cases went on the
court calendar. An effort was made
to have the cases transferred back
to Adams county, and the court also
declined jurisdiction, because they
had been transferred to Burleigh
county, according to Attorney-Gener-
al George Shafer.
Bowen, a rancher, was killed dur
ing an alteration. Politics was
brought into the case during the
height of the Nonpartisan League
and Governor Frazier named spec:

Frazier, has retired from the case,

case. r. B. Garberg is the, third at
torney listed for the state.

concerning the case, said that his ad-
ministration had not been concerned
with the case, but because the states

disqualified, some action probably
will be taken.

The great billiard champion is ITO
meet young Welker Cochran in a
play off for the 1872 balk line cham
pionship at Chicago, Dec. II, IL, 10.
In the recent championship pro-
per, with all the leading cue wizards
of the country competing, Hoppe and
Cochran finished in tie for the
topmost laurels.
Hoppe has held the title continu-
ously since 1912 with The exception
of brief lapse in 1921 when ne re-
linquished the throne to Young Jake
Schaefer.
Cochran is probably the most dan
gcrous aspirant to Hopes crown at
present. His record is noteworthy.
In 1921 he compiled the 1872 record
run at 3S4. In the recent tourna-
mcnt he trimmed both Hoppe and
Schaefer.
With an average of 81 "A he defeat
ed Hoppe, 500 to $50. Against Sch
aefer he averaged 62 1-2 and scored
500 while the champion of 1921 was
collecting 81.
The thing that kept Cochran from
winning the title outright was his
unexpected defeat at the cue Of Ha-
genlocher. This match was played
in the afternoon following Cochran's
win over Hoppe the night before.

Hair Nets So Fine Machines
Can't Make Them

Owing to the fine texture of human
hair and the shortness OF the strands,
no machine has been invented that
can knit delicate hair nets, so they
must all be made by hand, says an
eastern manufacturer. More than IS
per cent of the worlds supply Of this
article is produced in the native homes
of northern China. from where the hair
is first shipped to the United States
to be dyed and made sanitary by
chemical process. 1t is then returned
for knitting into nets. The strands are
tied end to end to form one long
string. This is wound on shuttle
which is worked round bamboo stick
or bodkin. The knots are fastened
similar to those in fish nets and ham
Knocks, and require skill created by
years of practice. One net an hour is
considered to be a good average for
the ordinary worker.

campaign not alone to protect their
own industry but to stimulate indus
trial growth in the state and to fight
for the principle of fair play for
western products.
Former Gov. Hanna spoke briefly
and expressed himself in full accord
with Major Washburn. He emphasiz-
ed the necessity for diversification
not only for the farmer but for all
industrial life in the state. He call
ed attention to his messages as gov
ernor in 1913 and 1915 when he asked
that a business agent be named for
North Dakota who could attract cap
ital and advertise the latent re-
sources of the state more especially
the coal, clay and straw. He declar-
ed that the finest clay in the world
could be found here and that if all
the state pulled together much could
be done to increase the prosperity of
the state.
Mr.. Hanna complained of the fail
ure of the intermediate Credit Bank
to give relief to North Dakota and
criticized some of the methods en-
ploycd by the officials of this insti-

knocked out three opponents in rapid
