He won his way by acts of heal- ing, until at last he boldly addressed the Dahal Lama, ruler of the Baddhist stronghold and after four . months came the invitation to enter the for- bidden y and establish a hospital. The invitation was in recognition of dnedical labor among Tibetan soldiers. And just as he was about to enter the city, word came of ‘his death. Cablegram Delayed. Batang is fifteen days on foot from Likiang, the Chinese town from which Dr, Hardy sent the cablegram: an- nouncing tie murder. . This accounts for the delay of the news of ‘his death. Dr. Shelton’s widow is in India, where she went last August to have the Bible printed in the Tibetan lang- uage, She brought her manuscript to the United States for printing but found no type with which it could be set up. Their two daughters, Doris, 17, and Dorothy, 15, are in school at Pomona, Cal. Dr, Medbury, who was a’ close per- sonal and religious friend of Shelton, sew the murdered missionary for the last time in July. Shelton had come back from Batang on furlough and was getting together the material for the hospital at Lhasa. On the three months’ trip out from Lhasa he had been imprisoned by Cuinese® bandits for sixty days.

Although en in health and a mere shadow of his former self, he kept the free ranging spirit of the pio- neer to the last. His whole career has deen intensely dramatic, little short of the sensational. Christians all over the world will feel his loss keenly; put he died in the country he wanted to and in the way he wanted to.” The way in which he earned his name is said to have been charact: istic of the man. (He was in a Chine: town on the Tibetan border. The Ti- betan soldiers had the Chinese troops in a tight place. The Chinese gent ral -asked Shelton who was in the town as a missionary, to arrange an armis- tice with the Tibetans. The Ameri- can agreed, went to the Tibetan town of Janka and in a few weeks stopped the war.

LEAGUERS' GOAL Leaguers Disappointed That Comings was Not Named Sec- retary of State Candidate | Madison, Wis., Marci 9.—(By Asso- ciated Press.) —Tae Nonpartisan lea- gue will spend its time and money} during the coming political campaign | in an effort to elect a legislature fav- orable to its policies rather than giv- ing finan support to the LaFollette Progressive Hepubjican state ticket, Chester C, Platt, editor of the Nonp: tisan Leader and spokesman for the organization said in a statement to: day, F = He declared that the league did not feel the same responsibility for elec tion of the Progressive ticket an- nounced on Saturday, that it did toward the ticket of two years ago, which it was largely influential in seiecting. “Of course we will have to support the state ticket headed by Senator La Follette.” Mr. Platte said, “but we are disappcinted that Lieut. Gov, George F. Comings was not named for secre- tary of state. We believe that he should have had this position on the slate. We did not have the same in- fluence in naming this ticket that we did in 1920 and do not feel the same responsibility for its election.” The Nonpartisan league, Mr. Platt decjared, would make a determined effort to name and seek the election of candidates for the assembly and senate. By concentrating on the elec- ‘tion of legislators, he said that the league hoped to gain contro] of the law-making branch of the government. ‘In the event that we gain a major- ity in both houses of the legislature, Wve feel sure that Governor Blaine, if re-elected, will not veto the bills we pass,” (Mr. Platt said. “For that rea- son we intend to devote most of-our attention and money to the contests in legislative districts.” The league now claims that it has a voting gtrength in Wisconsin of at least 35,000 and that by election time dt will have increased greatly, . In the recent conferences held by. Senator LaFollette to choose the full state ticket which will enter the 1922 primaries with his endorsement, it is not thought that the Nonpartisan lea- gue took any active part. Organizations of the league are maintained in practically all counties of the staté. With the approach of the primary election the entire ogran- ization plans to become more active ‘and to extend its influence more wide- ly, according to Mr, Platt. WOLF SLAYER KILLS 1,408. Harvey, N.

ND. POULTRY WORTH MORE IF GRADED S. A. Barton Appeals, For Stand- ardization of Eggs and Market Poultry Minot, N. D., March 9.—O. A. Bar- ton, poultry specialist of the North Dakota Agricultural College at Fargo. made an appeal for standardization ot eggs and, market poultry before the dairymen’s convention here today. The grading of the poultry products of the state would help producer and consumer alike, he declared adding that 300,000 ungraded eggs alone, which were shipped out of tie state last year would have brought thou- sends of dollars more if they had been graded. “The present interest in poultry raising in the state is due, largely, to several years cf crop failure which have taught the producers to take-an added interest in three valuable kinds of farm .products—namely. poultry, dairying, and potato culture,” said the speaker. “These three kinds of prod; ucts are’ about the only ones which have yielded a strictly cash return on many ‘North Dakota farms during sev- eral years. 4 “The proposition now pefore the producers and dealers of the state is that ‘they must establish some work- able plan to eStablish grades for fhe marketing of poultry. “The producer. must understand that the market standard is fixed ‘by the-~consumer. and: not: by..th: New : York, for instance, demands white eggs while the Bostonian would rather have his eggs brown. These things depend upon the individual likes and dislikes of the people. who are using the produce. And people are willing to pay for what they want.” é Duis To Represent Wheat Growers of N. D.
