Today in
Washington History
BY DONALD A. CRAIG.

December 8, 1860.-Citizens of the
eastern section Of the city complained
today Of the "impudence Of the swine,
which make the market place their
regular resort"
THE hogs" declares a writer in
The Star. claim as perfect a right
to the market and it's contents as
those who are taxed for its support"
They are declared to be Every mis-.
chievous, entering, in defiance of the
law, to the stands Of the dealers, up
setting the eggs, scattering the fruit
and vegetables" 1t is said to be mo
novelty to see a porker walk on with
a head of cabbage"
A few days ago, according to re.
ports, large hog walked "deliber-
ately to lady's basket, lifted tur.
key out of it and afforded a grand
chase for the younger ones who at
tempted to recover it,"
The complaint Of the persons thus
injured is that "the officers employed
to protect them by enforcing the laws
do not appear to care as much for
them as for the swine"
To turn to more serious matters. it
was noted with pleasure today that
the American ensign is being dis
played from nearly all prominent
points in the city. This is regarded
as striking evidence Of the Union feel
ing prevalent in Washington. Of
course, the persons who sympathize
with the slave-holding States have
been very outspoken since Mr.. Lin.

month, but 1t Is quite certain that
they do not represent the majority Of

Everyday Law Cases
Mdy Purchaser Rely on "Sell-
er's Tails" as Amounting
to q WdrrdntyP
BY THE COUNSELLOR.

Samuel Walker was impressed with
the talk Of a secondhand dealer in
automobiles, who boasted that a Ger.
tain machine was "in f1rst-class con-
dition and as good as any new car"
Walker thereupon agreed to buy the
machine and paid the price asked.
Learning soon that the automobile
was mot in first-class condition. -
Walker returned to the dealer and
asked for his money back. He left
the place dissatisfied at his reception.
Engaging an attorney, Walker filed
suit against the dealer, claiming that
the sales talk had constituted an ex-
press warranty Of fitness which had
proved untrue. The dealer, on the
other hand, admitted making the re-
marks but declared that they were
merely expressions Of his opinion.
Walker lost his case, the court ex-
planning:
purchasers must notice the differ
ence between statements of warranty
Of a dealer and statements which the
law sometimes calls sellers praise.
In the former instance the seller will
be held liable if his representations
are not lived up to, and in the latter
instance not. In the above case the
expression 'first-class condition is
not a warranty but mere Sellers
talk A purchaser cannot rely on
such praise to impose on vendor the
obligations Of warranty"

Why Folks Grow Deaf.

In recent talks we disposed OF the
| "catarrh" obsession and neatly placed
| the onus upon the shoulders OF those
| who still string patients along with
| the meaningless diagnosis OF "catar'
rhal deafness" If you missed this ex-
position, never mind. we have no re.
serve copies and anyway you didn't
miss much. Briefly, we explained tnat
there is no such condition as ca
| tarrh" in any case, an dino physician
or specialist can define such an entity,
and consequently it follows that one
can't use the term "catarrhaP' except
as a tricky way OF saying Il don't
| know"
The average newspaper reader un.
derstands clearly enough that In deny
ing that "catarrh" is an entity or a
condition or disease or ailment, l am
not denying that numerous real dis.
ease conditions are dubbed "catarrh"
or catarrhal" trouble when the pa
tient doesn't care to have a proper
examination and diagnosis, or the doc
tor isn't capable of making proper
examination and diagnosis.

boldly or 80 confidently. because even
the biologists seem 10 KNOW Illus

they do tell US only convinces me tnat

Commissioners Nav
Have to Decide Who
Is County Physician

Only routine business is scheduled
to come before the Burleigh county
commissioners tomorrow at the regu-
lar monthly meeting of the board.
The question Of who is county physi-
clan may come up for action, as it is
understood that both DR.. C. E. Stack
house and DR.. T. M. MacLachlan will
file bills for serving in that capacity
during the month of January.
DR.. Stackhouse, who has held the
office for several years, contends
that he is still county physician in
asmuch as the board is said to have
failed to elect successor at its
meeting a month ago. DR.. MacLach-
Ian claims he was elected to the office
when two members Of the board vot-
ed for him, one voted against him and
the other two passed.
Some of the board members hold
that the motion appointing DR.. Mac
Lachlan lost because it did not re-
ceive majority of all members pres
ent, while counsel for DR.. MacLachlan
contends that the motion carried by
a vote of two to one, since the other
two members of the board passed.
If both doctors present bills for
their services, the commissioners will
of necessity be required to determine
which is the county physician in rul-
ing which bill, if either, should be
allowed.

BRAVES BEAT.

AT DICKINSON
Local Cagers Trounce West

perience Disadvantage

The Mandan Braves added another
to their list of games won when they
defeated the Dickinson Normal team
schools floor Saturday night.
The score is all the more remark
able since Mandan had been consider
Dickinson normal has speedy team
this year and the Braves were expect
ed to be overwhelmed by the exper-
fence and size of their opnonents.
The actual story of the game
cisively outplayed- their opponents
throughout and kept a safe margin
at all times. Team work was smooth
and shooting and passing was ac-
curate.
Harold Borresen, rangy center,
went out Of the game during the first
quarter because of injuries and Heidi
took his place.
At the end>of the half, the score
was s to 2 in favor of Mandan.
This period was rather slow. Any
lack Of speed in the first half was
made up during the second half, how
ever. Both teams speeded up and
Mandan played phenomenal game,
making 22 points to ii for its OPP
ponents.
Seitz was high point man, with
Helbling and Heidi runners-up for
this distinction.
The starting lineup was: Helbing
and Seitz, forwards; Borresen, CEN
ter; Heidi and Wagner, guards.
After Borresen's> injury this was
changed to: Macdonald and Seitz,
forwards; Heidi, center; Helbling
and Wagner, guards. The latter line
up played the major part Of the game.

q PLAYERS IN
COMEDY TO BE.
HERE FRIDAY \.
Gentlemen Prefer Blondes Is
Heralded as Big Laugh
of the Year

The big laugh Of the year is Anita
Loos' and John Emerson's comedy
"Gentlcmen Prefer Blondes" 1t is
the big hit Of this season in New
York, and for six months the comedy
sensation Of Chicago. 1t is coming
to the city auditorium Friday night.
The company that will be seen in
this city was organized by Edgar Sell
wyn, producer of the play, expressly
to open the new Belasco Theatre in
Los Angeles, and it remained there
for eight weeks, following an equally
successful engagement in San Fran
cisco of five weeks.
Miss Loos' deliciously comic book
of the same name as the play, is the
foundation on which she and her hus-
band built the comedy, which is, per-
haps, more Of a farce than comedy.
In the cast are Joan Marion as Lorelei
Lee and Mary Ricard as Dorothy
Shaw, with William Courneen as
Henry Spoffard. Herbert Standing as
Sir Francis Bcekman and Lois Arnold
as Mrs. Spoffard. The full cast has
