PROPOOOOOO® 1706— POPOORIVIPIPVIIPIPIPIVOPOOPOVOOLHG OGO Kelgey’s “Indian Girl” may make the other lake boats red with envy. Two million persons cheered King George V., but just wait until Bryan is elected president. There is a growing suspicion that Governor Eberhart has a piece of putty where his backbone ought to be. As the result of recent events we. suggest to merchants having those first watermelons on hand that they lock them in the safe, and then guard the safe. A $9,000 diamond has been found in Pike county, Arkansas. The puzzling part is, how did anyone ever happen to stay long enought in Pike county to find it? Perhaps a Dbit premature for the Fourth, but the remainder of the state must admit that Northern Minnesota has been furnishing some choice fireworks . NO SNAP., ‘Whoever it 1s that is to assume the duties of county attorney for Bel- trami, he will face work requiring extraordinary courage and he must be a man who is capable of rising to the occasion. Not only will he be required to play his part in the Dumas tragedy but it is reasonable to presume that it will fall to his lot to properly present in a legal manner the evidence of alleged wrong doing on the part of Sheriff Hazen. Viggo Peterson is not the sort of a man to permit charges of so serious a char- acter to die in the hands of the gov- ernor or the attorney general. Verily, there is much work ahead for the new county attorney. AS SEEN BY “BOB” DUNN’S PAPER. Naturally this week’s newspapers are crowded with comments on the Dr. Dumas affair, some favorable to Dr. Dumas, others neutral as to his guilt, but severe on the detectives. This from the Princeton Union, Robert C. Dunn’g paper is an ex- ample: “Too much loud talk is being in- dulged in by the detectives, state fire marshal and his deputies relative to the arrest of Mayor Dumas of Cass Lake and the startling denouements that are to follow. The affair at Pu- posky was badly bungled on the part of the officers. The officers knew for days in advance that the store at Puposky wag to be burglarized and had laid all their plans to entrap and capture the crooks, yet they succeed- ed in capturing only one of the yegg- men and cowardly permitted the other to escape. It does seem as if an army of sleuths and officials, fore- warned and forearmed, should have either killed or captured the two lone thugs, The affair at Puposky does not reflect much credit on the offi- cers.””. NEWS FORECAST FOR THE COMING WEEK. According to present plans Presi-| dent Taft will remain in Washing- ton until the end of the week, when he will accompany his family to their summer home at Beverly, Mass. The President’s stay at Beverly, how- ever, will be brief as he will almost immediately start for the middle ‘west, where he has several engage- ments to speak: Little of political interest is pro- mised for the week with the exception of the Democratic state-wide pri- maries scheduled for Kentucky on Saturday.

S e Coudit e} Story The Family Starve HEYER No Breadless Breakfast With This Dog Around 'VE laughed to myself an awful lot,” gaid Eve.yn as daddy drew a long breath and prepared for his inevitable story, “about that dog called Laddie. Can’t you tell us some more ‘about him, daddy dear?”’ “Surely,” said daddy, “and not only nbout Laddie, but his great chum Tip, who is-just as clever.” “Fine!” cried the children. “Hurry up, please.” “Laddie’s folks, as I told you,” began daddy, “live in the country—that is, the almost country. They have air and sunshine and room such as are not to be found in the city, but they are just as much in need of the baker, the milkman and the iceman as city folks. They can’t milk cows nor ralse chickens nor bake bread, and they haven’t any room on their ‘spreading lawns’ —that’s a joke, my dears—for an icehouse. “Well, one snorning Mrs. Hooker, the lady who owns Laddie, came in great excitement to her husband, who was sitting on the porch waiting for break- fast, and said: ‘My goodness, what shall we do? The baker hasn’t stopped here this morning, and there isn’t a single bit of bread in the lxonse. Have you time to go down to the town and get some? “‘No, ma’am,’ said Mr. Hooker firmly; ‘I have to be at my office at 9 o'clock sharp. I'll have to eat my breakfast without any bread. Suppose you fry some potato cakes? “‘No mashed potatoes left over,’ said Mrs. Hooker. “Laddie, who had been listening, suddenly disappeared, and just as the Hooker family had gathered around the breadless table he came in with a large paper bag in his mouth containing a loaf of French bread and a dozen cerisp rolls. 2 “YWhereupon the Hooker family, knowing that the family Laddie had robbed couldn’t suffer any-more than they, promptly ate the bread and rolls.” “He should have brought in a pound of butter also,” commented Evelyn. “Now please tell us about Tip.” “No, ma’am,” said daddy. “You've made fun of my story, so !‘ll keep the one about Tip for some time when you’ll have more respect for your daddy's gray -hairs.” “Forgive me, daddy,” pleaded Evelyn, pretending to cry. “All right,” said daddy, with a wink at Jack. *“The man who ns Tip has the initials G- W. A. One morning he didn’'t bave a clean handkerchief and complained. Tip heard him and came in with a handkerchief marked G. W. A.
