on the eve of their departure for

1t was arranged by the Queen her
self, who is a bad sailor, and who,
with motherly instincts, had the in

at heart.
No soup was served, and moth

the physical benefit of the royal
couple.
Neither the duke nor the duchess

when he sent a friend to express his

But she chose to remain true to her

the monastery, she SAID so her father
died without having seen her since
1904, when she entered the monastery
as a novice. She did not attend his
funeral.
During her years in the monastery,

Glendive, Aug. 21. "Justifiable

Cause Rate Drop
By Great Northern

Bismarck, N. D., Aug. 21.-Com-
pletion of the bridge across the Mis-
souri, river at Sanish has resulted in
lowering freight rates on grain from
eastern Mckenzie county to the Twin
Cities, Duluth and other terminals
The rate on flax seed from points ON
the Watford City branch of the Great
Northern railroad to the Twin Cities
now is 40 cents 100 pounds, the rate
on wheat, rye, oats and barley is 351b
cents, the rates being slightly differ
ent for the various towns. New rates
are 341a cents a 100 pounds on flax
and 81 cents on other grains. The
reason for the reduction is that farm
ers in eastern Mckenzie county can
now cross the river and load cars on
the 500 line at SaEisn, from which a
much lower rate prevails, and the
Great Northern railroad found it nee
essary to establish a competitive
