Each bank is given an identifying
number-the Bank of North Dakota is
77-28." Davis explained that after
many Of the deposits the numbered
symbol appeared, thus showing which
bank it came from.
In all, Davis identified 10 deposit
slips. which totaled $8,33379. They
varied in amounts from $50 to $4,000.
Stenographcr Was Solicited
Following the testimony Of Davis,
the government called to the stand

ploye in the governors office. She
said she had been solicited by Oscar
Chaput. business manager Of The
Leader" She said she had given four
post-dated checks each in the sum Of
$3.50, and that she paid them.
Her salary she testified came most
~" from fund set aside by state
appropriation for clerks hire. Her
testimony began legal battle which
ended in ruling by Judge Miller.
Defense forces contended that soli-
citation Of Miss Fredericks was q le-
gal solicitation: that no state law
had been violated and that, in the
supposition there had been any vio-
lation, the federal court had no juris-
diction.
In detailed statement, the court
outlined his position.
Il don't agree with counsel" the
court said. This question has been
coming up for some time and it has
to be settled-it might as well be
settled now"
Defense attorneys suggested . re-
tirement to chambers, but the court
refused.
He read two sections Of the penal
code Of North Dakota, one providing
that any state officer directly or indi-
rectly receiving and appropriating to
his own use any part Of allowance
made for clerk hire. shall be guilty
Of q misdemeanor."

ALEXSTERN, FARGO
BUSINESS LEADER,
IS TAKEN BY DEATH
Well Known Merchant Would
Have Been II Years Old
Next Thursday

Fargo. June $780, Alexander
Stern, president of the Dakota Ma
tional bank, who has been prominent
In business and civic life in Fargo
since 1881, died at p. m. Sunday in
his home here. He had been IL: for
approximately five months. He would
have been n Thursday.
Born in comparative obscurlty at
Giessen, Germany, on June Z, 1857,
Alexander Stern burned his bridges
behind him when but IA years of age.
He came to America and started a
career that brought him success and
linked his name with the progress of
the once-small village Of Fargo to the
states metropolis.
Landing in New York on Aug. IL,
1871. the ambitious youth made
Straightway for the state of Illinois,
where he had dreams of living and
starting his own business. He settled
at Bloomington, working as a clerk
for some time to acquaint himself
with American business methods.
Realizing the immense opportunity
in the newly-opened territory of Da-
kota, he moved westward and found
ed his permanent business and home
In Fargo in 1881. He is said to have
been the first Jew to have settled in
Dakota Territory.
Opened Clothing Store
Successful at the beginning, the
young merchant started to boost the
small village and opened a clothing
store where the Merchants National
bank Is now located. He continued
in business there until 1885, when he
built q two-story building. He did
business in that location for more
than seven years until the great Far
go fire Of 1893 destroyed his building.
Not discouraged, he Immediately set
to work and constructed a modern
two-story brick building on the same
site. He was a figure among those
businessmen Of the city who urged
the people to rebuild with more mod
ern and substantial buildings, despite
the great losses incurred during the
fire. Two other business blocks which
he had acquired also were destroyed
by the flames.
He conducted his clothing business
in the new brick building for 10 years,
during which era he became one of
the most prominent and well known
businessmen Of the city.
His confidence in the future Of Far
60 firmly established, Mr.. Stern fore
saw great possibilities and with this
foresight, erected in 1908 the building
which today houses the Stern Cloth
ing company.
Served On School Board
The Fargo merchants activities
were not altogether directed toward
business. In 1889 he was elected to
the board Of education and served as
q member Of that body for eight years.
He was elected to the state assembly
in 1909. He was also appointed to the
board Of directors Of the North Dako-
ia Agricultural college at Fargo and
served for a number Of years, receiv-
ing his first four-year appointment

MEN WHO ATTACKED
ROLPH'S ATTITUDE
MOURN HIS DEATH
California Governor d Buried IN
San Francisco; Hoover
IN cortsgs

San Francisco, June 4.-(R-Men
who q few months ago sharply criti-
cized Gov. James Rolph, Jr., for his
approval Of lynching became mourn
ers at his funeral here Monday.
Former President Herbert Hoover
headed q line Of dignitaries in final
tribute to the California governor
whose death Saturday smoothed away
their controversy over the mob hang
ing ct San Jose Of the two kidnapers
Of Brooke L. Hart.
Rolph, who was mayor Of San Fran
cisco for 10 years, boasted that more
people called him "Jim' than was the
case with any other living man.
Widely known through his shipping
interests, his long public service and
his willingness at al times to play .
public role as greeter, parade leader or
bestower Of prizes, Rolph attracted
national attention at least twice In his
gubernatorial capacity.
Refused Mooney Pardon
The first came April q, 1882, when
he followed the example Of three OF
his predecessors and refused to par
don Tom Mooney and Warren K.
Billings, convicted Of murder in con-
nection with the bombing OF the 1916
preparedness day" parade In San
Francisco. Rolph. mayor Of the city
at the time, was leading the parade
but was several blocks away from the.
scene Of the explosion.
The other sensation was furnished
November Is, 1888, when he applauded
the work Of mob which on that
Sunday lynched two men at San
Joes. The victims, Thomas H. Thur
mond and John Holmes. had con-
fessed the staying Of Brooke Hart. .
young San Jose business man, after
they had kidnapped him for ransom.
The mob fury broke loose when Harris
body was found In San Francisco
Bay.
This is the best lesson that Cali
fornia ever has given the country"
said Rolph when informed Of the
lynching. I'VE show the nation that
this state is not going to tolerate kid
naping."
The next day charging on this
sentiment, he promised to pardon
anyone convicted Of taking part IN the
lynchings. He said too that he was
thinking Of "paroline" to the San
Jose mob several other kidnapers who
were serving terms in California
prisons.

Of ballots ever cast for . California

counted for him in November, 1890.
He took pride In that fact and also in
the five successive 4-year terms,
starting in 1911, to which he was
elected Is mayor Of San Francisco. He
relinquished the municipal post to be-
come governor.

The inexperienced housekeeper
often hesitates to take advantage Of
a bargain in ham because she is not
quite sure how she can use it with
out danger of monotony in meals.
However, If the hook end is pur-
chased with as many pounds as one
feels justified in taking, several in
teresting meals that in no way sug-
gest each other can be scattered
over period of days.
The center cuts are delicious cut
in slices and baked. The next sec
ton, cut in thick chunk back to
the hook joint, can be boiled or
baked. Then the bony end with
little meat can be cooked with any
one Of the greens.

You wouldn't, for instance, COM

Porcupifie Salad
Did you ever try the stuffed pear
salad that is sometimes called por-
cupine salad? It's very nice and
you might like to serve it for lunch
con some day. Fresh or stewed
pears can be used, and unless the
pears are quite mellow it's a good
idea to stew them. Use two halves
for each portion.
Make small balls of cream cheese
combined with finely chopped pre-
served ginger. Put ball Of cheese
in the cavity Of the pear and mt
the halves together.
Stick shredded almonds into the
pear and serve on bed of lettuce
with mayonnaise mixed with
whipped cream. The almonds should
be blanched, shredded and toasted.
Mint and Pear Salad
Another delicious and eye-satls-
fying salad is made by stewing
pears in a thin syrup favored with
mint.
When the fruit is almost tender
add a few drops of green vegetable
coloring to color the pears a deli
cate green. Serve on bed of let
tuce with a piping of cream cheese
mixed with the syrup from preservd
cherries or red raspberries around

West Indies Mullins and
Caramel Buns on
List.

Plain bread may be "the staff of
life" but fancy bread is the gold
knob on the end of i'll
The words homemade bread"
are magic ones, that conjure up
thoughts of warm fragrance and de-
lectable flavors, and although
modern matrons rely on the baker
70 keep the bread box filled with
the everyday supply, they continue
to make the eXtra-special kinds
themselves.
Most of the fancy breads are
quick ones, which means they are
quick to make. quick to bake, and
quick to disappear as soon as they
hit the plates of the OPEN awed
family
There are four kinds of quick
bread: those made with pour batter,
drop batter, a soft dough or a stiff
dough. The pour batter is most
generally used, while the stiff
dough is seldom employed.
AS opposed TO the yeast or light
breads. the quick variety is made
with baking powder or some form
of leaven which acts quickly.
Bread Types Defined
Rolls are properly made with
yeast but the term also is applied
to quick breads made with dough
Biscuits are made of dough thick
enough to roll, or a stiff batter
they are usually made without eggs
Mullins are usually made with a
thin pour batter and often contain
eggs.
Gems is a term used for various
types of mullins; it originally re-
ferred to the special long narrow
shape.
Popovers are a special pour mix
ture. scenes a special biscuit, and
buns usually are made like rolls
although some biscuits are called
buns.
Unless otherwise specified, hard
wheat or bread flour is recon-
mended for quick breads. A liquid
shortening is used in almost every
recipe. and it will be found that e
smooth cool oil gives excellent re.
suits and makes unnecessary the
work of melting the shortening.
