'tsrfyv. Dr.1 Titswb'rth of' the Ply
month Church, Milwaukee, recently
preached a very interesting sermon on
advertising in connection with the
spread of the gospel. Mr. Titsworth
believes in "the maintenance of a
bureau of publicity in every church, but
not sensational advertising." This is a
subject of considerable interest to Far
go churches and it may be said of the
ministers of the city—several of theni
at least—that they believe in informing
the public of what they have to offer
through the columns of the daily press,
as well as through weekly notices for
distribution, and there are a number of
church papers, which aid greatly in
keeping people informeld on religious
doings. It is reasonable for churches
to advertise through the daily press
for by so doing they are enabled to
reach a much larger number than
would be possible otherwise. In this
country nearly everybody reads the
daily papers regularly. Through ^Jiat
means can a religious hody regularly
reach as large an audience as by the
daily press? It seems to be largely a
matter of enterprise, whether church
advertising i* encouraged or Jrc^wned
upon.
It was a happy thought that
prompted the .officers of the. T"-State
Grain and Stock Growers' Association
to invite the farmers 6f Manitoba to
participate in the annual convention-to
be held in Fargo next month. The in
terests of the people of the northwest,
whether north or south of the interna
tional boundary line, are in njany
Te-
spects similar and a mingling of farm
ers from both countries will no doubt
be.beneficial to all concerned. Our
northern neighbors have displayed the
same enterprise and grit in the devel
opment of agriculture that North Da
kotans and Minnesotans have and their
experience will be as valuable to farm
ers of this section as what farmers of
the states know will be to them. The
Manitobans seem to have taken kind
ly to the invitation presented 6y Presi
dent Johnson in behalf of the associa
tion.'^' ft
Djstritt Jtidge Jibxts A. Howe of
Des fyloines, la., in an important case
before his court the other day, held
that divorce granted under a Da
kota statute is null and void in Iowa,
if it is proven that the litigant resides
in the state merely for the purpose of
securing a. decree. The ruling seems
to.be a most sensible one, so far as the.
object of residence in connection with
litigation is concerned, but why should
it matter whether the divorce ||atute
is one enacted by a Dakota lej^i|iture
as distinguished from otiiir
tum? 0#ght the time limit to make
TBt FARQO FORUM AND DAILY REttJBUCAS %JESDAT EVENING, DECEMBER
a material difference in the granting of
divorces? Are there not other consid
erations of greater importance?
*3" The Forum is gratified thlt the
city of Fargo has secured a fire engine.
It has been its belief for a long time
that this action was essential to obtain
the confidence of the underwriters that
Fargo intended to protect property
from destruction this was why The
Forum urged the retention of the small
engine until something better could be
obtained. The action of Mayor Sweet
will be heartily approved by citizens
generally.
& Henry Clews & Co. report con
tinued rise of confidence in the New
York stock market, notwithstanding
Thanksgiving naturally tends to re
strict operations. Railroad stocks are
strong and doing better, while indus
trials are rather weak and irregular.
Railroad earnings are larger than ever
and many roads are earning much in
(xccss of present dividends. During
the past two years there have been
enormous expenditures far reconstruc
tion, which came out of the earnings.
This expense will be largely reduced
during the next year and with the in
creased earnings will make railroad
stocks decidedly on the upward grade.
Mr. Clews is of the opinion that indus
try has reached the top wave, but the
decline will be gradual. The outcome
depends largely upon the reasonable
ness of the .attitude of labor. It is be
lieved that next year should find the
country upon more solid ground than
in 1902 or 1903.

Eastern judges seem to delight In
taking a whack at Dakota divorce
statutes. The only way to get back at
them is to go alter- eastern society

Is it possible that Captain Carter and

world's stage of notoriety? his

reciprocity matter.
Grover Cleveland has informed his
dear friend, editor of The Brooklyn
Eagle, and hence, incidentally the pub
lic that he will never, under any con
sideration, becomc the nominee of the
democracy for president. Mr. Cleve
land says: "My determination not to
do so is unalterable and conclusive."
How good of him! Of course Colonel
Bryan cruelly remarked that it
wouldn't have made ariy difference any

SUDDEN DEATH.
fibwbells Bulletin: Andrew Bodin,
son of Mrs. Anna Bodin, living south
west of town came to a sudden and viol
ent death on Wednesday of this week.
He was returning from the Gille and
Miller coal mine with a load of coal,
when, in descending a hill the wagon
temgue came down, precipitating the
wagon heavily loaded with coal, down
the grade at a great rate of speed, when
the tongue ran into the ground, check
ing the wagon and throwing the unfor
tunate young man out on his head,
breaking- his neck. He arose, ran a
few steps towards the team, then sank
to the ground, dying almost instantly.
Deceased was the oldest son of Mrs.
Bodin, and her main support, her hus
band having been killed three years
ago in a threshing machine accident.
To her the death is an extremely sad
blow, and the sympathy of the entire
community goes out to her in this her
sad bereavement.
About one third of the people of
Cass County reside in Fdrgo and the
city pays more than 41 per cent of the
taxes. A combined county courthouse
and city hall would not be an innova
tion. They have them in Minneapolis,

LOST CHILD. 3
Valley City Citizen: Monday morn
ing Yardmaster Koehen thought he had
a lost baby on his hands, when he found
a 9 year old tot in the depot waiting
room. The conductor on No. 7 put her
ojf here. Mr. Solon succeeded in get
ting her to say that her name is Mabel
Nelson and that her aunt put her on the
train at Fargo. Then she began to cry
and would not talk. Mr. Keohen coaxed
her to go to dinner with him and looked
after her ail the afternoon until about
supper time, when he turned her over to
Chief Burt. The chief took her to the
restaurant and gave her a good supper.
She played with the little girls all the
evening, forgot her troubles and said she
was going to her papa, that his name is
Andrew Nelson. After considerable in
quiry it was learned that he is working
for Andrew Schilling. Mr. Giselias took
her out to the farm Tuesday morning.

.STREET STORIES.
A little tot less than 2 years old, who
foakes his home with his parents on
the Northside, has been taught to say
"grace" at the table.
His words do not come frtely yet,
as he has only five teeth, but he puts
his hand over his fact and, with bowed
head, goes through the ceremony with
more intelligence than is usual in a
child of that age.
The other day at the breakfast hour
he was put up in his chair some fifteen
minutes before his father and mother
were ready to come to the table, and
every minute or two he would ask the
blessing in his- little way. He repeated
this experiment about a half dozen
times and, finding that this did not
bring his breakfast to him, he set up a
yell that could be heard for blocks
around.
It goes without saying that he is los
ing his faith in "grace" even at his
tender age.

A young mother, living out on First
Avenue South, who has a little, boy
about twenty months old, has discover
ed, as all mothers do at some time,
that he is highly imitative, attempting
to*do every thing he sees others do.
The other day she had just finished
bathing her hands, using for that pur
pose a flesh brush. She had occasion
to leave the room a moment afterward
and when she returned the child had
secured a tooth brush from the wash
stand, soaped it well and in the height
of glee was scrubbing his hands.
Reproof was ont of the question, and
the mother joined in the merriment
and thus added to the child's delight.

For all the coal we get.

"Say, mister, does this thing^ gftl

The remark was addressed to a ped
estrian by a street urchin. The thing
to which the boy alluded was one of
the slot machines on the streets for
the sale of chewing gum. Either a
penny of a nickel would operate this
machine and the boy had dropped a
nickel in the slot. He only received a
penny cake of chewing gum in return,
however, and he was bewailing the loss
of the other 4 cents. Then it was that
he asked the man if the machine would
give change.

ANOTHER ACCIDENTAL DEATH
Fessenden Free Press: An 18-year
old son of Philip Schmidt, living a few
miles southwest of town, accidentally
shot himself to death yesterday with a
double barrel shot gun. The lad was
fooling with the gun, snapping the
trigger back and forth with his foot.
He was cautioned to be careful lest he
get hurt, but said the gun wasn't load
ed. Pretty soon the gun that wasn't
loaded went off and the contents of the
shell entered the lad's stomach. Dr.
Neukamp was summoned but beforft iie
could reach the boy he was dead.
