They drag along a miserable existence; they apply to the iocal doc- tors occasionally, and sometimes ob- tain a little temporary relief, but the old, tired, worn-out, all-gone, distress- ed feeling always comes back again worse than ever, until in time they become tired of living, wonder why they were ever born, and why they are alive unless to endure constant suffer- ing. To such sufferers there is a haven of refuge in Dr .August Koe- nig's Hamburg Drops, which was dis- covered more than 60 years ago, and which is a wonderful medicine. One trial will convince the most skeptical that any or all of these difficulties may be removed and a perfect cure effected, by taking Dr. August Koe- nig's Hamburg Drops.

"If there's any truth in what Shakes- peare says about the man who has no music in his soul," skhl$*Lieutenant George Culver, who has seen service in Cuba, both in the army and out, "the Cubans will always be 'fit for treasons, strategems and spoils.' They have less of what one might call in- diginous music than any other peo- ple I have ever seen. The Spaniards :are essentially musical. So are. the Mexicans. In Mexico one hears not only Spanish music, but 'greaser' songs, in which the Indian weirdness comes out strong. "But over in Cuba everything is 'borrowed. The native Cuban sings less than the average American when he works. He doesn't begin to sing as much as the Southern negro does. He does not seem to originate melo- dies. His dance music, even, is not his own. The genius of the Cuban does not lean toward concord of sweet sounds, and that lack in him may account for the great difference between the Cuban and the Mexican character." Policeman and Parson. Policemen are, as other men, rather sensitive of allusion to their failures. Richmond has lately suffered at the hands of burglars, and the burglars are still at large, A well known min- ister met a policeman in the street the other day at Richmond, and could not avoid an allusion to the local topic. "What a number of burglars there are about," he said; "why don't you cons arrest them?" The policeman regarded the minster solemnly. "Sir," he replied, "there are thousands of people going to hell every day. Why don't you minsters •stop them?"—London Chronicle. Spreading the Good News. Whatcom, Wash., January 5th..— Mrs. A. M. Ferguson who came h6re from Winnipeg, Manitoba, relates how that great destroyer of Kidney Com- plaints, Dodd's Kidney Pills first reached the extreme North West cor- ner of the United States: "I had used Dodd's Kidney Pills for what the Doctors pronounced Bright's Disease in Winnipeg," Mrs. Ferguson says, "And the disease disappeared entirely. That was about three years ago and I enjoyed good health till about two years later when I removed to Whatcom. "Whether it was the change of cli- mate, I can't tell but my old trouble returned in full force. My legs were swelled to nearly twice their size. I could not go up or down stairs lor about two months. "My husband hunted Whatcom for Dodd's Kidney Pills but could get none till a Druggist sent away and got them for him. "I began to get well as soon as 1 began taking them." Others in What- com have learned to know and appre- ciate Dodd's Kidney Pills. Faith. A mother in one of the suburbs of New York, wishing to prepare the minds of her two children for -a com- ing event of great importance, told them that if they would like to have a little brother or sister, she thought, if they prayed earnestly every night and morning, God would send them one. In due time the desired baby ar- rived, to the children's great delight, and evidently to the strengthening of their faith, for the next day the father came into his wife's room, saying: "Look here, Lizzie, this thing has got to stop. I just went into the parlor and found both those children on their knees praying as hard as they could for goats."—New York Mail and Ex- press. PATENTS.

The Northern Pacific will improve its track at Windsor, in Stutsman county. North Dakota is becoming famous for its many excellent orchestras over the state. Joe Gebus is back at Windmere after having a leg chopped off in a Fargo hospital. The merchants in many, towns of the state are organizing to head off the dead beats. A rural delivery route north of Wheatland is wanted by the farmers in that section. Mtes Anna L. Barnum, who has taught school at Mayville for twenty years, has resigned. Ex-Gov. and Mrs. Roger Allin have gone to Canada on a three-months' vis- it to their old home. Female blind piggers are becoming so numerous over the state that they are no longer novelties. The banks of North Dakota are put- ting in larger safes to hold the in- creasing amount of shekels they are gathering. The farmers in many sections of the state are planning to attend the meet- ing of the Tri-State Grain Growers in Fargo, Jan. 20-23. Prof. E. E. Kaufman, of the North Dakota Agricultural college, is doing much to: encourage creamery enter- prises in the state. At Litchville the farmers hook a traction engine on to a string of grain tanks, and take 1,000 bushels of wheat to market at once. The Old Settlers' association will advocate the organization of county associations, to dreate more interest in the big organization. * The lignite coal operators want to work some plan by which consumers will purchase coal in the summer, when there are plenty of cars. Mr. and Mrs. Oscar E. Will of Bis- marck celebrated the twentieth anni- versary of their marriage. They were remembered by a host of friends. J. R. Radford of Fargo owns the farm, in Emmons county, on which President Worst, of the North Dakota Agricultural college, formerly resided. J. B. Hockridge of Hunter is said to have invented an attachment for a threshing machine for flax, that prom- ises to make him famous and a pluto- crat. A slope former doesn't take much stock in the lignite trust when he can wander out in his back yard and dig a few scuttles of coal any day—for homo consumption. Despite the fact that Former Com- missioner of Forestry Barrett was leg- islated out of office, he still takes a great interest in promoting the work in this state . i The insurance companies are report- ed to be cancelling policies on elevat- ors in Benson county because of the numerous fires, believed to be of in- c n -'"aiy origin. The furnace of the Foster County State Bank, at Carrington, exploded and the fuel in the basement was 3et on fire. The firemen saved the struc- ture from damage. Tom Stack of Enderlin, who was found guilty of malicious prosecution in the case of the chief of police, re- fused to be guilty, and will institute further proceedings in the matter. "Reddy" Welch, an old resident of Minto and for some time janitor of the school there, has given $1,200 to a san- itarium at San Diego to be furnished a home for the remainder of his days. Missouri slope farmers farm their lands in summer and dig under the surface in the winter and secure a good quality of lignite coal. Justice Cochrane, of the supreme court, has been given nice quarters by the county commissioners at the court house in Grand Forks. The steamer Expansion on the Mis- souri will be rebuilt during the winter, and twenty-three feet added to her length. 'V 'M M.

An Esmond attorney is reported to have been in trouble. Anonymous letter writers are said to be busy at Devils Lake. A lot of grain was placed on the mar- ket before the holidays. Burleigh county farmers are hauling' coal to Bismarck at a profit. The postmasters are getting on earth again after the holiday rush. Carrington people are rejoicing over the opening of a new laundry. Portal had an epidemic of typhoid, followed by another of diphtheria. A trace of lignite coal was discov- ered by a well-digger at Wimbledon. The fortune-teller ordered out of Jamestown returned for her trunk. Dr. Philip Fountaine is said to again be doing business in North Dakota. A man was given thirty days at Courtenay for swiping a keg of beer. Druggist Bentson seems to be estab- lishing stores all over North Dakota. The Stutsman county commissioners may erect a new sheriff's office and jail. Much of the surplus wheat at Han- nah was carried out before the holi- days. The Mannhaven elevators have been enlarged to hold the Mercer county wheat. Dead animals at Grand Forks must be buried, or Chief Lowe will raise hades. Milton people were disappointed over their failure to secure a farmers' institute. There seem to be daily and tri-week- ly services on some of the rural deliv- ery routes. John Geiser, a cigarmaker of Fessen- den, became insane because of a tumor of the brain. At Donnybrook a Soo water tank man struck because his salary was cut from $60 to $30. A Valley City boy injured his sister's eye so badly, accidentally, that the op- tic was removed. The railroads seem* to have plenty of cars now for lignite—but the mine op- erators are short. Mandan's school census showed 321 males and 404 females, a total increase of 52 over last year. The acetylene gas plant at Lisbon was delayed in operation by the non- arrival of the meters. A new bill has been introduced pro- viding for an appropriation of $200,000 for the Bismarck i'ort. The fool-killer missed quite a bunch of people who continue to pour hot ashes into wooden boxes. At Jamestown two young people mar- ried after an acquaintance of four days, and both are now destitute. The crossing on the Missouri be- tween Mandan and Bismarck is good now and teams are crossing regularly. Supt. Hagen, of the Richland county schools for several years, gives it as his official opinion that $45 should be the minimum salary paid school teachers. The sawmill, planing mill and sash and door factory at Post Falls, Idaho, owned by E. M. Strathern and Mc- Gillis & Gibbs, were destroyed by fire. Loss, $92,000. NEW TRIAL FOR BARRY. North Dakota Farmer, Now in State Prison, Will Get Another Chance to Fight. The supreme court court reverses the district court of Cavalier county, Judge Kneeshaw, and grants a new trial to William Barry, now serving a life sentence in the state penitentiary for murder. The Barry case attracted wide atten- tioin throughout* the state some tifae ago, Barry being a prominent and rich farmer of Cavalier cputoty, who killed Andrew Mellem, his hired man, in a barn on his place. Barry claimed that Mellem had in- vaded his home and betrayed his sis- ter ,and after giving him a specified time to pray, he killed him with a knife. The trial was hard-fought on both sides, the state being represented by State's Attorney Dickson and John M. Cochrane, supreme judge-elect of the state, and the defense being repre- sented by Tracy R. Bangs of Grand Forks, who made the appeal to the su- preme court. The syllabus covers three type-writ- ten pages, reversal being based on the charge of the court to the jury. This the supreme court reviews, and, after quoting the language objected to by the defense, holds that it gives clear expression to the views of the presid- ing judge, and hence is held to be a judicial error. The portion of the judge's charge which subsequently informed the jury that they were sole judges of Ji.e weight and credibility of th etestimony does not operate to cure the" error in- volved . The supreme court holds that the common law rule prevailing in some states and in the federal courts, per- mitting trial courts to give expression to their views upon the credibility of testimony or its weight or effect ,has been abrogated in this state; that the plea of not guilty puts into issue every essential element of offense charged, and that courts are inhibited from in- structing juries that any essential fact is established, even when no evidence is offered to - disprove the fact 'f*e opinion in the case was written by Chief Ju3tice WaUin PROMINENT PHYSICIANS ' USE AND ENDORSE PE- ^County MINOT. r; I I C.B.

M'hat afflict thousands of people who do not know what is the matter with them. They drag along a miserable existence; they apply to the iocal doc­tors occasionally, and sometimes ob­tain a little temporary relief, but the old, tired, worn-out, all-gone, distress­ed feeling always comes back again worse than ever, until in time they become tired of living, wonder why they were ever born, and why they are alive unless to endure constant suffer­ing. To such sufferers there is a haven of refuge in Dr .August Koe-nig's Hamburg Drops, which was dis­covered more than 60 years ago, and which is a wonderful medicine. One trial will convince the most skeptical that any or all of these difficulties may be removed and a perfect cure effected, by taking Dr. August Koe-nig's Hamburg Drops.

ONLY 1CIAL PAPEI

_OF

About Cubans and Music. "If there's any truth in what Shakes­

peare says about the man who has no music in his soul," skhl$*Lieutenant George Culver, who has seen service in Cuba, both in the army and out, "the Cubans will always be 'fit for treasons, strategems and spoils.' They have less of what one might call in-diginous music than any other peo-ple I have ever seen. The Spaniards

:are essentially musical. So are. the Mexicans. In Mexico one hears not only Spanish music, but 'greaser' songs, in which the Indian weirdness comes out strong.

"But over in Cuba everything is 'borrowed. The native Cuban sings less than the average American when he works. He doesn't begin to sing as much as the Southern negro does. He does not seem to originate melo­dies. His dance music, even, is not his own. The genius of the Cuban does not lean toward concord of sweet sounds, and that lack in him may account for the great difference between the Cuban and the Mexican character."

Policeman and Parson. Policemen are, as other men, rather

sensitive of allusion to their failures. Richmond has lately suffered at the hands of burglars, and the burglars are still at large, A well known min­ister met a policeman in the street the other day at Richmond, and could not avoid an allusion to the local topic. "What a number of burglars there are about," he said; "why don't you cons arrest them?"

The policeman regarded the minster solemnly. "Sir," he replied, "there are thousands of people going to hell every day. Why don't you minsters •stop them?"—London Chronicle.

Spreading the Good News. Whatcom, Wash., January 5th..—

Mrs. A. M. Ferguson who came h6re from Winnipeg, Manitoba, relates how that great destroyer of Kidney Com­plaints, Dodd's Kidney Pills first reached the extreme North West cor­ner of the United States:

"I had used Dodd's Kidney Pills for what the Doctors pronounced Bright's Disease in Winnipeg," Mrs. Ferguson says, "And the disease disappeared entirely. That was about three years ago and I enjoyed good health till about two years later when I removed to Whatcom.

"Whether it was the change of cli­mate, I can't tell but my old trouble returned in full force. My legs were swelled to nearly twice their size. I could not go up or down stairs lor about two months.

"My husband hunted Whatcom for Dodd's Kidney Pills but could get none till a Druggist sent away and got them for him.

"I began to get well as soon as 1 began taking them." Others in What­com have learned to know and appre­ciate Dodd's Kidney Pills.

Faith. A mother in one of the suburbs of

New York, wishing to prepare the minds of her two children for -a com­ing event of great importance, told them that if they would like to have a little brother or sister, she thought, if they prayed earnestly every night and morning, God would send them one.

In due time the desired baby ar­rived, to the children's great delight, and evidently to the strengthening of their faith, for the next day the father came into his wife's room, saying:

"Look here, Lizzie, this thing has got to stop. I just went into the parlor and found both those children on their knees praying as hard as they could for goats."—New York Mail and Ex­press.

NEW TRIAL FOR BARRY.

North Dakota Farmer, Now in State Prison, Will Get Another Chance to Fight. The supreme court court reverses

the district court of Cavalier county, Judge Kneeshaw, and grants a new trial to William Barry, now serving a life sentence in the state penitentiary for murder.

The Barry case attracted wide atten-tioin throughout* the state some tifae ago, Barry being a prominent and rich farmer of Cavalier cputoty, who killed Andrew Mellem, his hired man, in a barn on his place.

Barry claimed that Mellem had in­vaded his home and betrayed his sis­ter ,and after giving him a specified time to pray, he killed him with a knife. The trial was hard-fought on both sides, the state being represented by State's Attorney Dickson and John M. Cochrane, supreme judge-elect of the state, and the defense being repre­sented by Tracy R. Bangs of Grand Forks, who made the appeal to the su­preme court.

The syllabus covers three type-writ­ten pages, reversal being based on the charge of the court to the jury. This the supreme court reviews, and, after quoting the language objected to by the defense, holds that it gives clear expression to the views of the presid­ing judge, and hence is held to be a judicial error.

The portion of the judge's charge which subsequently informed the jury that they were sole judges of Ji.e weight and credibility of th etestimony does not operate to cure the" error in­volved .

The supreme court holds that the common law rule prevailing in some states and in the federal courts, per­mitting trial courts to give expression to their views upon the credibility of testimony or its weight or effect ,has been abrogated in this state; that the plea of not guilty puts into issue every essential element of offense charged, and that courts are inhibited from in­structing juries that any essential fact is established, even when no evidence is offered to- disprove the fact 'f*e opinion in the case was written by Chief Ju3tice WaUin
