Her studies have been concerned chiefly with the women of the im- perial harem. Great women some of them were, such as Kersem Sul- tana, so beautiful that she was sur- named “Body of the Moon,” who when old abrogated so much power that the reigning sultan, her son, ordered eunuchs to strangle her at night with the cords of her bed-cur- tains. Dr. Miller has made a study, too, of the lives of the palace slaves and has discovered such picturesque de- tails of their existence as the exist- ence of a law that no slave could be whipped more than once a day with more than 40 lashes. She found also that slaves were not allowed to wear coats, no matter how cold the dark draughty rooms of the palace, so that NEGRO KNIFING VICTIM BETTER Fort Lincoln Soldier Will Not Leave Hospital for a Week, However S.

Meanwhile the two negroes, P. J. and C. P. Perkir-, are being held in lieu of $500 and $300, respectively, awaiting preliminary hearing before Anton M. Beer, justice of the peace. Their hearing schedsled for last night was postponed until 7:30 Thursday night, because of inability of the complaining witness to testify at the heaiing. If Hilliard is not the lines of their bodies might not be hidden or disfigured. The American investigator dis- covered in her prowlings through the palace that there existed one peep hole by which the women of the harem could look upon men other than their sultanic master and their guardian eunuchs. High in the wall of the palace~mosque where the sul- tan and his masculine followers wor- shipped, Dr. Miller found a tiny win- dow covered with a golden lattice and discovered that this window con- nected with the room in the harem where the women gathered to pray. The purpose cf the window wa: to allow the voice of the priest con- ducting the men’s service to pene- trate to the priestless women wor- shippers, but it is presumable that it was put to less sanctified pur- pose when sultanas and slaves must Mave jostled each other for a chance to peek through the golden bars at the rare sight of many men. During her final investigations this year Dr. Miller was given per: mission by the new republican Turk- ish authorities to enter every one of the hundreds of palace rooms save one. No human except the sultans, not even the sultan-smiting, religion- defying Mustapha Kemal, has ever entered that sanctum sanctorum where the beard of the Prophet re- poses. Outside the heavily barred window of that room 40 turbaned priests, in groups of four, chant prayers from the Koran day and night, year after year, century after century. able to appear Thursday night, the case will days again. P. J. Perkins is charged with as- sault with a dangerous weapon, and his brother is charged with disturb- ing the peace. The struggle at the Woodworth dance hall early Sunday morning between the soldier and the $wo negroes arose over an argument ‘concerning a white woman, it is al- leged. The two negroes were brought to Bismarck by Deputy Sheriff Henry was brought to the post hospital early Sunday morning. WIND HOLDS UP ATLANTIC.

Arnson Explains Dis- ease Which Has Baffled Doctors Cancer, its causes, effects, and the eradication of the disease, pro- vided an interesting and instructive talk today by Dr. J. 0. Arnson at the weekly meeting of the Kiwanis club, The disease of cancer constitutes one of the most serious menaces to mankind, and medical scientists have been bey years inquiring into the many baffling phases, “Through proper treatment,” said Dr. Arnson, “cancer may be eradi- cated in two generations, say 50 years, but it is not at all possible that the public will devoté the time and study to the disease to bring it about.” “Cancer may be cured if the dis- ease is given the proper attention before it affects the mucous mem- branes.” Cancer was described as being a disease of the mucous membranes, and a hereditary disease. Laboratories all over the world are interested in this disease and its pe- culiarities, and scientists are devot- ing their entire lives to the study of it. The disease, the speaker explained, is traceable through generation after generation. Dr. Arnson was introduced by Dr. N. O. Ramstad, who was entertain- ment chairman for the day. After listening to Dr. Arnson's instructive talk for half an hour, every member of the club expressed the opinion that the discourse was an instructive one, dealing as it does with a disease practically unknown outside of the medical profession. George Shafer, president. intro- duced the guests and the entertain- ment committee chairman for the day. He also called attention to the forthcoming Community Chest drive, which will be staged during the first week of October. Kiwanians have been called upon to participate in this drive with both their time and contributions. Fif- teen Kiwanians will be appointed to assist in the drive for funds. Guests today were: Dr. S. A. Zim- merman, Valley City; U. L. Burdick, Fargo; Rev. John Heitz, Iver Acker, Hillsboro; and Bruce Dennis, Ray- mond, Wash. o—_______-__ 9 | Additional Markets ; nie ion Dah come ea eat ta nea CHICAGO GRAIN TABLE Chicago, Sept. 18.7) Open High Low Close Wheat— Sept. 1.08% 1.0914 1.08% 1.08% | Dec. 1.13% 1.13% 1.13 1.1333 March = 1.17% 1.18 1.1754 1.1758 May 1.20% 121 1.20% 1.20% Corn— Sept. 1.02% 1.02% 1.01 1.01% Dec, 16% .76% 75% .75% March “18% = .78% 617% LT7% May 80% 80% 80 80% Oatst_ .
