The Crookston Times today prints tke following: “Much local aroused here in the fight for the sheriff’s office in Beltrami county, in which A. B. Hazen was renominated interest has been on the republican ticket while ex- Sheriff Thomas Bailey has filed also. He is a democrat strictly speaking, but appears to be making this race at the solicitation of those who are bitterly opposed to Hazen for various reasons “*Mr. Bailey served as sheriff for at least three terms, and has a very strong following throughout Beltrami county and is also specially strong in Bemidji. Former Deputy Sheriff Andrew Johnson also has a strong following, and as he was defeated by Hazen it is very probable tbat his following will now swing to Bailey where the feeling was very bitter. *“Thus before the votes are counted there will be all manner of dust kick- ed up in the fight, and it is a certain- ty that both caudidates will know they have been in a fight before Nov. 8—and one of them will surely be in the ‘ran also’ class.” Scandinavian Lutheran.

ROOSEVELT IN BOSTON Declares it Would Be Calamity to Lose Lodge. Boston, Oct. 22—Roosevelt spoke here last night in behalf of the re- publican party of Massachusetts. He said it would be a ‘calamity to the nation if Senator Lodge should fail of re-election. The senator, he said, was a friend of progressive legislation and that there was no difference of opinion as to the basic principle of production, as the republican party stood solidly on the tarifi commission plan as contained in its last national platform. - The colonel made no reference to the Payne-Aldrich bill confining his remarks to an endorsement of the republican state platform, and of the tariff board scheme. He said that he was advocating the same political principles in his speech of tonight that he had advocated in all of his speeches during the summer, from the Rocky mountains to the eastern seaboard. Roosevelt’s reception in Boston was enthusiastic. The Social Breakfast. A London newspaper wounders why we no longer invite people to break- fast. The reason is to be found in the state of mind that usually possesses the free and independent citizen at that hour in the morning, a state of mind that makes bim unbearable to bimself and to every ove who comes near him. Presumably it was not ever so, for invitations to breakfast were once common enough, and not so long ago either. Mr. Gladstone used to have guests to breakfast every Thurs- day morning as recently as 1884, -and 1t was thought sutficient to supply tea and coffee, eggs, bread and butter and perhaps some cold wmeat. But the really solid breakfast had come into fashion long before then, and it is said that the English learned the fash- fon from the Scotch. Motley, when he was ambussador to England. found that rhe substantial breakfast was grievously opposed to the simpler cus- toms of his own country. He says, *“When | reflected that all these peo- ple would lunch at 2 and dine at 8 1 bowed my head in bumiliation, and the fork dropped from my nerveless grasp.”—Argonaut, Big Clocks. The big clock of the Metropolitan tower at Madison square. New York, is by long odds the costliest and most elaborate public timepiece ever con- structed and is the only great clock in the world operated wholly by electric- ity without the touch of human hands. Some of its other wonders are its size, being the largext four dial tower clock and the third largest clock of any size in the world, and its altitude. which is the highest of any clock in the world. It has also the biggest and heaviest striking bell. The other three largest clocks are the one face dial of the Colgate fac- tory in Jersey City, which is forty feet across, the nest in size of mammoth public chronometers being the dial at St. Bombort’s, in the old city of Ma- lines, in' Belgium, which is thirty-nine feet across. St. Peter’s of Zurich, Switzerland. has a dial face twenty- nine feet, and then in order comes the Metropolitan tower clock. which is twenty-six feet six inches in diameter. The Origin of the “Marseillaise.” In the reign of terror under Freron and Barras. when hundreds of vie- tims were carved by the guillotine and the people rose against the aristocra- cy, was born the hymn of France, composed by Rouget de I'Isle. He was an officer of engineers and at a banquet was asked to compuse a war song. He wrote it in his room that night before going to bed. and the next morning his hostess, the wife of the mayor of Strassburg, tried it on a piano, and io the afternoon the orches- tra of the theater played it in the square of Strassburg, ®here it created much excitement' and gathered many volunteers. Rouget called if a song for the Army of the Rhine, but stibse- quently it was sung by a regiment of volunteers, mostly assassid§, who marched out of Marseilles ‘to Paris, where it was appropriated by'the cap- ital and called the “Hymne des Marsel- lais.” But Joseph Rouget, the author, died in poverty. — Deshler Welch in Harper’s Magazine, Westminster Hall. Westminster hall, England’s old hall of the king’s justice. is one of the world’s notable historical shrines. Built four centuries before Columbus salled for America, burned. restored, remodeled, it has seen more history in the making than perhaps any other building west of Rome, Here some of the early parliaments met, and here the second Edward was expelled from/| his throne. Here Richard I1. was de- posed, Charles 1. condemned and Crom- well hailed as lord protector. whose head. if the legend is authentic, was afterward exposed from one of the hall’'s pinnacles. Westminster hall was the scene of the trial of Warren Hast- ings. In it sentence of death was pro- | nounced on William Wallace, Sir Thom- as More, Somerset. Essex, Strafford and Guy Fawkes.—New York World. Tried to Fly. John Milton in “Britain to the Con- quest” says that the youth King Har- old, last of the Saxons, strangely as- piring, had made and fitted wings to his hands and feet. With these, on the top of a tower, spread out to gather the air, he flew more than a furlong: but. the wind being too high, he came fluttering to the ground. maiming all his limbs, yet so conceited was he of his art that the cause of his fall was attributed to the want of a tail, as birds have, which he forgot to make. His Recommendation. Tom—Hello, Bill! I hear you have a position with my friends Skinner & Co.? Bill—Oh, yes; 1 have a position as collector there. Tom—That's first rate. Who recommended you? Rill— Oh, nobody. I told them that I once collected an account from you, and they instantly gave me the place. Firmness of Purpose. Firmness of purpose is one of the most necessary sinews of character and one of the best instruments of success. Without it genius wastes its efforts in a maze of inconsistencies. The Real Grievance. “You are always complaining. You ought to be satisfied with the money you've got.” “lam. It’s with that which I haven’t got that 1 am pot satisfied.” A Reminder. “Since I've come back I find that I'm forgotten by all my friends.” “Why didn’t you borrow money of them before you went away?'— Judge's Library. . The Hat Straw Crop. The greater part of the straw em- Ployed for making summer bats comes from Italy. To obtain a suitable straw for this purpose the wheat is sown as thickly as possible in order that the growth of the plant may be impover- ished as well as to produce a thin stalk. The Italian wheat blooms at the beginning of Juue and is pulled up by band by the roots when the grain is half developed. Should it be allowed to remain in the ground a longer time the straw.would become too brittle tor the purpose for which it is grown. Uprooted straws to the number of about five dozen, the size of the com- puss of the two hands, are firmly tied together In little sheaves and stowed away in barns. After that the straw is again spread out to catch the heavy suminer dews and to bleach In the sun. ‘When the product has been sufliciently bleached. it is put into small bundles and classitied. The last step is to cut it close above the tirst joint from the top. when it is again tied up in small bundles containing about sisty stalks each and is then ready for the market. —Harper’s Weekly. The Languages of Paradise. Every language has its admirers. In “Lucile” the author. Owen Meredith, maintained that when he bheard French spoken as he approved Le “found him- self quietly falling in love.” KEdward Hutton is another instance of this lin- gual fascination. In stating his pref- erence in his enchanting *Cities of Spain” he recalls an interesting me- diaeval legend. He says: “And as | listened to the splendid syllables of the Castilian tongue that rang éloquently through the twilight [ remembered the saying of that old Spanish doctor of whom James How- ell tells us in his ‘Instructions For Forraine Travell’—to wit, that Spanish, Italian and French, these three daugh- ters of the Latin language, were spo- ken in paradise: that God Almighty created the world in Spanish, the tempter persuaded Eve in Italian and Adam begged pardon in French.” Taste Is Localized. Taste is curiously localized in the mouth. Put a lump ot sugar on the tip of your tongue and you will find it distinctly sweet. Then try it halfway back on the tongue and you will find it tasteless. All sweet or aromatic substances, such as wine, sugar and coffee, can be properly appreciated by the front half of the tongue, a piece of knowledge that every true connoisseur applies when he sips instead of taking a mouthful. With most other sub- stances, however, the reverse is true. In these cases the tip of the tongue serves only for touching—it is the back part that tastes. The sides of the mouth, too, are quite insensible to cer- tain substances not tasteless. Put some salt or vinegar between the teeth and the cheek und you will find them absolutely flavorless.—London Stand- ard. Werestling For Rent. In several cantons of Switzerland the custom prevails oi holding wres- tling marches and other exhibitions of physical strength at their choral, gym- nastic and rifle festivals. The cham- pions taking part in these athletic sports belong to the most diverse ranks in the social scale. Thus at a recent festival at Grenchen. a little town in the canton of Soleure, a wealthy property owner and his ten- ant, a carpenter, stepped into the are- na to wrestle according to the rules of the art. There were to be four rounds. or “falls.” The stake for each *fall” was one quarter’s rent. After the car- penter had thrown his landlord four times the victor's prize was awarded to him, and he accordingly found him- self entitled to live in his house rent free for a whole year. A Henpecked Astrologer. Lilly. the astrologer and alchemist, could not see for himself sufficiently far into that future which he professed to be able to scan so clearly for others to guard him against making a fool of himself by marrying. He caught a vixen. “of the temper of Mars.” to use his own words, and the fact that she brought him £500 as dowry did not count for much in the ‘way of compen- sation, seeing that “she and her rela- tions cost him £1,000.” Matrimonial Dyspepsia. “Well, how do you llke married life?” inquired the friend. “Not at all.,” replied the man who had married money and was suffering for it. “I'm a case of matrimonial dys- pepsia.” = “Matrimonial dyspepsia?” “Yes. She never agrees with me; she’s too rich.” His Deduction. The Sunday school teacher had just explained to the juvenile class that the first parents were made from dust. “Now. Edgar,” she said to a bright little fellow, *‘can you tell me who the first man was?" “Henry Clay.” was the prompt reply. —Chicago News. As to Truth Telling. There is an eastern saying which runs: “It is good to know the trutb and to tell it. It may be better, know- Ing the truth, to talk of date stones.”— London Truth. As Bill Nye Saw It. Bill Nye described a five shot Colt’s revolver as *“Professor Colt’s five vol- ume treatise on the ventilation of the human system.”—Kansas City Times. His Suggestion. ‘Wigwag—T never knew such a fellow as Bjones. He is always looking for trouble. Henpecked—Then why dnesn't he get married?--Boston Courier. Presence of Mind. A visitor to av insane asylum was walking in the grounds when a man came up to him aund entered into con- versation. After walking about for some time, discussing topics suggested by the place. the two st out on a tour of inspection, the mua apparently an official, inviting the tor to go over the asylum. At length they reached the foot of a flight of steps, up which the guide led the way, aud at the top the visitor found bimself out upon the roof, a height of more than a bundred feet from the ground. As they gay below his companion startled him sud- denly by proposing to see who could Jump farthest toward the grounds! Not until then had it dawned upou the visitor that his guide was mad. Mer- cifully he was a man of ready wit, aud { his wit saved the madman’s life. *“Oh, anybody can jump down.” said the vis- | itor. *“Let us go down and see who can jump to the top.” The madman thought it a good iden. and. retracing their steps, the two began their jump from the earth instead of from the roof, The Mammoth Cave Rat. The cavern rat found in the Mam- moth cave is of a soft bluish color, with white neck and feet. It has enormous eyes, black as night, but quite uaprovided with an iris, These eyes are perfectly insensible to light, and when the experiment has been made of catching a cavern rat and turning it loose in bright sunlight it blunders about, striking itself against everything. is unable to provide itself with food and finally falls down and dies. In its native depths, however, it is able to lead a comfortable enongh existence, us its enormously long whisk- ers are so extremely sensitive that they. enable it to find its way rapidly through the darkness. The principal focd of the cavern rat consists of a kind of large cricket of a pale yellow color and, like most other cave dwell- ers, itself perfectly blind. Corrected His Error. ‘With the Gernans the absentminded college professor is a stock source of witticisms. One of these deeply absorbed gentle- men, sitring or a rear seat, thought he kuew a person sitting in front and was about to speak to him when, the stran- ger by chance turning a little, the pro- fessor saw that he was mistaken. Nevertheless, touching bim on the shoulder. he remarked politely: “You will excuse me, but you are not the persou | thought you were.” There is always room for a man of | force. and he makes room for many.— Emerson. d | — Jewelry Manufacturing and Repair Department is fully equipped to take care of any work in our line you wish to give us Promptly Because we bave the work- men and the material.
