They must, regardless of any other instructions received, present themselves at their polling place and register next Tuesday, else they will be subject to the severe pen- alties prescribed for failure to comply with the selective service law. Wain Wires. Orders, Capt. B. F. Ristine, U. S. A., inspect- or-instructor with the North Dakota national guard, today, was advised as follows by Adjutant General M’Cain, chief of the militia bureau: “Candidates enlisted under Section 54, national defense act, reserve offic- ers not in active service, and national guardsmen not in federal service are required to register.” “When in doubt register” is a very good rule of conduct for every citi- zen of North Dakota to follow next Tuesday. FORT YATES AUTHOR WRITES INTERESTING STORY OF THE SIOUX Tells All That History Reveals of Great Dakotah Nation in North Dakota Writing in an interesting, chatty vein, Frank Fiske, in “The Taming of the Sioux,” fresh from The Tribune press, has made a book worth while which will be read through at one sitting by any individual with red cor- puscles in his blood. Mr. Fiske leaves the unknown to the unknown. He tells all that is known of the great Dakotah nation; its conquest of North Dakota and its ultimate subjugation by the whites. Indian battles still fresh in the memories of braves with whom Fiske has lived and labored for 28 years on Standing Rock reser- vation are vividly described, as by} eye-witnesses. The outstanding feature of the hook is its treatment of the ‘Sioux as a human being, not as a demi-god or superman; nor as a barbarian with- out human instincts, but as one of the great family of Man. And the Sioux, in this guise, is much more interesting than the Sioux of fiction; much more appealing than the Sioux of history. x Mr. Fiske has made no attempt at fine writing. He tells his story in a heart-to-heart, straight forward way which makes it somewhat distinctive. “The Taming of the Sioux” should have wide circulation. There is no more interesting subject, and there is no one better qualified to write on it from first hand information and personal observation. , Typographically, the little volume is a‘credit to'Thé Tribune printery. /It is attractively’ bound in red silk with ‘binding decoration by Holy Cross, whose original drawings illustrate the book, together with a large number of copyrighted photographs taken by the author.

HOBO WHO MADE G000 REMEMBERS A FRIEND Pettibone Farmer. Dying Leaves All to Companion of Suc- cessful Years Pettibone, N. D., June 2—Joseph Mathes, a confirmed hobo, drifted in- to this section many years ago. With the aid’ of a genereus .new-' found friend he succeeded in filing on a homestead, settled down and. became one of the county’s substantial citi- zens. A few years later there wan- dered into the neighborhood Kirt Frankenstein, an old acquaintance of the road. Farmer Mathes, who had never married, assisted Frankenstein to become established here, and made much of him and his family. A few weeks ago Mathes fell from a hay- rack, fractured his spine, and died within a few hours. Now it is learned that before his death he called in a notary and made a will leaving ev- erything he possessed to Kirt Frank- enstein. The farm, buildings, grain in the bin, horses, livestock and cash in the bank amount to a comfortable little fortune, which is a windfall to the Frankensteins, to whom fate has. not been over-kind. MACDONALD BACK— kan N. C. Macdonald, state superintend- ent of public instruction, returned to- day from a several days’ stay in Dunn county, where he officiated at. the dedication of consolidated schools in Halliday, Dunn Center and Killdeer. * OFFICES FOR RENT Second Floor Bismarck Realty Co.
