IS ALMOST FILLED,
AUDITOR DECLARES
Names of 1875 Available Tues
day Forenoon; Statute
Calls For 200

Names Of 1876 Burleigh county citi-
zenS were on the district court jury
list Tuesday morning, according to
County Auditor A. G. Isaminger,
making it most nearly filled and most
representative in several years.
The statute calls for 200 names but
has no teeth" to enable county Of
ficials to keep the list filled. For
that reason" the auditor said, 1T Is q
rare occasion when the jury box Is
filled"
The Jury box caused considerable
protest during the December court
term when 1t was found that only
two of the IS jurors drawn for serv-
ice were from the city of Bismarck
Investigation disclosed that the box
at that time had only 1913 names. with
the Capital City under-represented
according to apportionment by popu-
lation.
Failed to Issue Call
Through an oversight. the commits
sioners had failed to issue a call for
more names to complete the box.

Since that time, however, the COM
missioners have issued q call for n
more names for the box, only five OF
which had not been supplied tosAudi-
tor Isaminger Tuesday morning. The
auditor said the five townships which
had not responded to the call have
been asked for names again. and he
believes some or all of them will sup
ply names before the next jory term.
In its last call, the county commits
sion asked for names of 80 Bismarck
persons, two from Ecklund township
and one each from the following
townships: Lincoln. Missouri, Thelma
Gibbs. Sibley Butte. Crofte, Steiber

the courting bison SWANS may be heard
for miles
From all accounts, the bison fathers
are far more SolicitouS over the well
fare of their offspring than the
mothers The babies are born In May
or June, often there are twins. In the
old days. when millions Of bisons
roamed the plains, the coyotes and
gray buffalo wolves were ever watching
their chance to steal the bison babies.
A mother could defend her young
against one or two enemies, but when
more came around she would sent out
an S o S to her husband. He would
hear the call of distress and come at
once. bringing his friends with him.
They at once formed a circle about
the infant and the wolves would move
back little, but hang around the
outskirts.
The fathers would form q circle about
the little toddler and begin the march
back to their feeding grounds. When
the little fellow had to have his food
and take a nap, his projectors lay
down, forming a circle still, and waited
until he rested up.
When q bison baby Is one week old,
he can protect himself pretty well and
can follow the herd. It is only when
he is a few days old that he Is so
helpless.
In November and December the BIZ
son or buffalo has a most handsome
coat. The upper part Is covered with
pale brownish-gray, the lower parts
with dark brown and the hump with
dense mass of yellowish-brown hair.
The head, tnderparts and forelegs have
long, shaggy. brown hair. 1t is at this
time that the hide or robe" Is the
most valuable. Sometimes the coats
of the bisons are dark bluish-black q
very dark brown and once in long
time there is a white-coated bison.
1t was the choice white robe that
was worn by Roman Nose, the great
Cheyenne chief, the day he fell before
Forsyth's troops. His beloved "big
medicine" failed to protect him.
BY March the bison looks like a
tramp. His coat Is in tatters and rags
and he is forever seeking tree, boulder
or some object to rub against and shed
more of his disreputable looking clothes.
But his troubles are two-fold just now.
He is annoyed with his old garment,
but he is exposing tender spots to the
villainous attacks of mosquitoes and
gnats, and in desperation he seeks a
mud puddle or stream in which to
wallow and drown the pests.
He has one friend through this try
ing ordeal-the cowbird, who rides on
his back and snaps up the pests as
they swarm by. She tucks herself in
the warm wool Of her host at night
and goes to sleep.
The economic Importance Of the bison
at one time was very great. The meat
supplied thousands of white and red
men with buffalo steaks. The hides
were made into handsome robes, coats
and rugs
Through the efforts of the American
Bison Society. the American buffalo or
bison is being protected. A greater
number Of these handsome creatures Is
being seen each year and they are per-
fectly at home in geological park.

How 1t Started
BY JEAN NEWTON.

The reader asks the origin of the old
word "treacle," which means properly
remedy against poison, a cure and
which some of us remember from our
childhood as the name for molasses or
sugar sirup.
This is a very interesting word In
that it reveals in its history the uuirks
and turns which much of our language
has taken In the making Of modern
speech.
'Treacle' Is derived from the Greek
''theriakon"-pertaining to q wild beast.
Quite transition from a wild beast
to molasses. This Is how it happened:
From something pertaining to wild
animal the word came to be applied
to "a remedy for the bite of wild
animal" Then its origin was lost sight
of and it named simply an "antidote,"
a remedy. Incidentally. the remedies
of old were frequently prepared in the
form of sirups. And before long the
reason for the sirup or the nature of 1t
as remedy was discarded and only

bid of three no trumps was more in

We will make three no trumps without

clear trick over his minimum require
ments for keeping the bidding open on
the first round, he bids the no trump

cards and not OH mine. Note that 1t

heart suit at any time, as 1t was only q
four -card suit, and my partner would
necessarily visualize IL as five or six

ing with two no trumps. In that event
he would assume that II he could sup
ply as little as @ X in support, the heart
suit would yield five tricks at least, with
no loser in 1t. This might cause him
to misjudge and so misbid the hand.
Undoubtedly he thought that my club
holding was as good as A @ x when he
heard my bid of four no trumps; how
ever that admitted weakness in my
hand was offset by my six primary
tricks with all the aces.
