Yesterdays meetings in this
state left no doubt as to the in
terest of North DaOkta farmers
in the movement.
BY stipulation no state politics
are discussed at meetings Of the
Farmers Union. Senator Frazier
was invited to address the Grand
Rapids gathering on national is
sues. Senator Nye joined him at
SpiritwOod Lake at what developed
into one of the greatest rural po-
litical gatherings ever held in this
state.
They addressed crowd that pack
ed the Spiritwood auditorium IN hour
before the speaking began. They
addressed an overflow meeting on
the grounds as large hastily or
ganized.
Record Attendance
Both said at the end of the speak
ing program that the crowds were
among the largest that have ever
been assembled in this state for
political meeting.
In the colorful atmosphere that
was at Spiritwood Lake one thing
stood out in bold relief. Senator
Frazier still is the political lido! of
the farmers. He has had few great
er receptions in all his political ca
reer than that given him here yes
terday. He has more friends today
than ever before since he has been
in politics in North Dakota.
The temper of the crowd was
noteworthy. The farmers are no
longer passive. They are more in
terested in this campaign than in
any since the earliest days of the
Nonpartisan League. 1t is not diff
ficult to determine who are to be
the beneficiaries in the state cam
paign. The farm vote of this state

Frazier and for the entire state

stronghold in Mukden after two
years of rule as dictator of North
China was marked this morning by
the bombing of Chang's special train

Several of those aboard the
former dictator's special train were
killed, two officials were injured and
Chang Tso-lin himself suffered

Two bombs were dropped on the

Included among the wounded were

of agriculture of the former Peking

A shortcut to Brule region
which will cut about forty miles
from the distance between the
Presidents summer camp and
most points in central, southern
and western Minnesota, is proposed
by the Askov American. The short
cut follows the pavement on trunk
Highway No. 1 to Sandstone, and
then goes over county roads
through Askov, Nickerson and
Holyoke, crossing the state line
into Foxboro, Wis, from where it
goes nearly direct east to Brule.
Travellers over this route will miss
70 miles of pavement on No. 1, but
they will go over scenic route
which includes Pattison park at
Manitou Falls, Wis.

English Courts Cold
 To Heart-Balm Suits

LONDON. May 1.-The breach of-promise suit, so useful for
 many decades to aggrieved Eng fish widows and spinster, is rap idly losing it's popularity in this country.
 With increasing economic and
 social independence of women, English judges and juries are re-
 luctant to award money damages to the tilted complainant. Even where the verdict is for the com plaining woman, the jury fre-
 quently measures its estimate of harm done by granting just enough indemnity to buy a spring bonnet.
 Modern English courts, dis
 missing the sentimental plea, are
 considering breach suits merely as broken civil contracts.
 A distinguished judges de- claration that breach-of-prom
 ise suit is a confession of infer
 iority in the female sex possibly
 has checked the court-ward rush of brokenhearted maidens.

tion of Olympia by the Germans in 1S75.S1.
 Herodotus is said to have read part of his history at the Olympic Games, and Nero took part in them. With the spread of Chris tianity, they, like all the pagan festivals, declined, and in 394 A D. the Emperor Theodosius I sup. pressed them, the last Olympic victor being an Armenian prince An attempt made to revive them at Antioch was stopped by the Emperor Justin in 521. At the instigation of Baron Pierre de Coubertin and others they were revived at Athens in 1896 in the ancient Stadion, restored by Ave rolf. On that occasion Greek shepherd, Louis, who is still alive won the Marathon race (26A miles) amidst great enthusiasm.
 The Olympic Games were re peated at Athens in 1906, when a Canadian won the Marathon race in the presence of the late King Edward VII and the writer well remembers seeing Prince George of Greece in naval uniform run with him up the Stadion. Since then there have been no Olympic Games in Athens.

Ride of Hundred Miles
 Mere Jaunt for Cowboy

SPRINGVILLE, Utah, May l. One hundred miles on horseback by 71-year-old cowboy is "only an ideal holiday trip" declares Milan L. Crendall, who recently rode this distance in two days. Crendall portrays the oldtime cowboy in a different guise from the hard-boiled, two-gun type pie tured in fiction and the movies. Although the better part of his life has been spent on the range, punching cows or freighting, he never drank nor smoked.
 He has never ridden "Frenchy," his pony, into the front door of a saloon to shoot out the back bar mirror, but he often rides him into the cemetery to offer homage

 With these six, all of whom arc due to see action in the next few weeks, the list of recognized and undisputed champions ends. The same Bud Taylor who fell before Sangor is considered bantam weight champion by some states, but is not universally acclaimed Bud has about outgrown the divi- sion anyway.

Bay State Gets Home
 Of Thomas B. Aldrich

CANTON, Mass, May 1-Thc -Ponkapog home of. Thomas Bailey Aldrich, author. editor and poet, where nearly half his collected work in prose was written, has passed to the state of Massachu. setst.
 With it's 155 acres of land to be incorporated into the metropoli. tan park system, the centhry-old house awaits final disposition at the hands of the Metropolitan dis trict commission.
 The old tavern that became a poets home has seen many changes since it was built in 1913 on the Proyidence-Boston turnpike by Captain John Tucker. It was after it had become a wealthy gentlemans farm and estate that Aldrich came here from Boston to live. And during his time such characters as Mark Twain, Will liam Dean Towels, Joe Jefferson, Phillips Brooks and Edwin Booth were guests at it's fireside.
 Aldrich came to Ponkapog in 1874. It was in this year that, wishing to add the picture of Mark Twain to his library, he wrote his request. Clemens here upon began sending him photo graph every day. When, after two years, Aldrich protested mildly against this stream of pictures, Clemens sent him 20 of his pie lures in 20 separate covers.
 After Aldrich's death, the house remained home of Mrs. Aldrich until her death few months ago.
