EMMONS COUNTY RECORD
BY D. R. STREETER.
I.intnn, JS'orth Dakota.
PIONEER rAPER OF THE COUNTY.
The Kecord In entered *t to« Linton Punt
office an second-claw matter.
Landlord Kd. Cole, of the Hotel
Metropole, Fargo, offers a premium
for the host-developed young man
in the state, fay it to Uurdiek.
There is a tjueer lot of people up
at Minot. At the llK'T session
Charley .Johnson fought teeth and
toenail fni- the establishment of a
normal school at Minot. To him is
nitly due the location of the school
at the Magic City. Hut those who
helped him in his fiKht in the lower
house of the assembly certainly did
not expect to see such hoggishness
shown hy the Minotters as has been
manifested hy some of the people
there in the choice of a site. After
fighting over the matter for month-,
the partisans of the different locali
ties agreed upon an election to is
certain the will of the majority as to
the location. The Hoard of Control
waited patiently for the Minotters to
agri'e. Finally, believing that the
populace had selected a site, the
hoard located the school. Now
come some of those who were de
feated at the election and enjoin the
hoard from locating the normal
at the place of their selection. The
writer was one of those who did hi.
h'vel hest to help Representative
Johnson in his fight for the school.
Hut the selfishness shown by the
people in Minot over the site for the
school has pretty thoroughly dis
gusted fair-minded people through
out the state. There is a strong
sentiment developing in many parts
of the state that the Hoard of Control
should cease trying to satisfy the
people of Minot and leave the en
tire matter to the next legislative
assembly, who would undoubtedly
be in a temper to initiate a proposed
constitutional amendment locating
the normal school at Rugby or some
other place in the northwestern
part of the state. The people of
Minot seem to forget that the nor
mal schools are the property of
North Dakota, and that the citizens
of the entire northwestern part of
the state are equally interested with
the Minotters in the prompt estab
lishing and opening the school.
Amusements at the Exposition.
Wholesome amusement, as well as
pleasing and delightful entertain
ment, will be found at the North Da
kota Industrial Imposition, which
opens in Rismarek on Sept. 2Gth and
continues until the 15th of October.
At the Kxposition building, in addi
tion to the concerts, recitals, dances
and receptions, there will be two
weeks of high-class vaudeville, two
shows daily, which will be free to all
entrants of the Kxposition. The
shows will rank with the very best
vaudeville programs of the larger
cities of the east. There will be six
acts, covering a period of two hours
to each show, and each bill for the
two weeks will carry at least fifteen
artists.
Then, independent of the exposi
tion proper, there will be free street
acts, carnival attractions, open-air
band concerts, civic and, industrial
parades, field meets, athletic sports,
concessions, etc.
You will have a good time, learn
many substantial facts about the re
sources of your state, learn much of
value about farming and farm in
dustries, and incidentally help make
the big Exposition a thorough suc
cess, if you will attend a few days
of the big show. You can't afford
to miss it.
England's First Railroad.
The: traveling on the lirst railroad
in Knghind was not very comfort
able undoubtedly. The coaches
Were at first only coupled with
'.chains, as wagons are now, so that
they jerked the unfortunate passen
gers nearly off their seats at start
ing and clashcd violently against
each other when the driver put on
his brake. When fairly in motion,
if the speed was any hut tho slow
est, the very short wheel base pro
duced a pitching action so trying
that if tho journey had not been a
short one it would have seriously
affected the popularity of the rail
way as a means of passenger transit.
Fragrance of St. Sophia. v:
A isitors to the mosque of St.
Sophia in Constantinople notice
immediately they enter beautiful
fragrance pervading the entire
building. The solution lies in the
fact that when it was built, 1,000
years ago, the stones and bricks
were laid in mortar mixed with a
solution of musk. Those who laid
these stones have been long forgot

BRADDOCK BREVITIES.
News,
Feed of ail kinds is very scarce at
this time, and Bradkockites are
teaching their chickens to grow fat
on a gravel diet.
More stock is annually shipped
from Hraddock than from any other
point on the Hankinson Bismarck
branch of the Soo —'tis said.
The News sent a number of ac
counts out to friends of sister cities
several weeks ago, and judging by
the returns —many of the friends
are dead.
Robert Ferguson and wife arrived
from Ashland, Ohio last week and
are guests of the former's cousin.
Wm. Raxter, and family, living
south of town.
All will be well pleased to learn
that Mrs. Emma Cotton, who moved
to Mason City, Iowa, in the spring
of 1910, has decided to return. She
has given notice that she will oc
cupy her cottage in south Braddock
after the fifteenth of the month.
A couple of school boards of the
south part of the county deserve
leather medals for their business
sagacity. Recently they engaged
two school ma'ams to teach fall
terms, and at the eleventh hour no
tified them that their services were
not required.
Henry Reamann, one of our suc
cessful farmers and stockmen,
hauled out a new corn-binder Sat
urday. Henry has forty acres of as
good corn as is growing out of
doors, and his small grain is as good
as the average. Besides this, his
annual out-put of stock makes all
years look good to him. Diversified
farming pays every time.
Leo Weber received a telephone
message Sunday stating that the
wife of his brother, John P. Weber,
had died at Ashley Saturday ni«ht
of typhoid fever. Mr. and Mrs.
Weber went to Ashley by Monday's
noon train. Later.—Mr. Weber re
turned Tuesday, accompanied by his
bereaved brother, who is also down
with typhoid. The latter will either
be treated at the Braddock hospital
or taken to Bismarck.
South of Hraddock, J. J. Ryan
last spring planted fifty acres of
eastern corn dent, we believe.
When it was a few inches above
ground it was attacked by cut
worms and practically destroyed.
The piece was replanted with the
same kind of seed, and, although
very late, it came on nicely, and up
to date has entirely escaped the
frost. Some weeks ago Mr. Ryan
was thankful that it was going to
make good fodder corn, but the
News now understands that, if a
killing frost does not come before
the middle of this month, the crop
will fully mature.
It begins to appear that there is a
growing demand for the incorpora
tion of Braddock as a village. The
town is absolutely without fire pro
tection, and very few, if any, are
carrying more than fifty per cent
of their risk in fire protection. A
few thousand dollars raised on
twenty-year bonds would reduce in
surance rates more than it would
increase taxes, and the value of prop
erty would be increased. And fil
thy, disease breeding back alleys
and vaults could be cleaned up, side
walks and crossings built, etc.
These suggestions are offered to the
large majority of our progressive
citizens, who want to see Braddock
one of the cleanest and most up-to
date little cities on the map.
HAZELTON HAPPENINGS.
(Itupuhlu'iin. Si'pteiiilH'r T.
H. O. Batzer returned Friday
evening from a week's trip to the
Twin Cities.
Miss Edna Armstrong returned
Tuesday evening from a week's visit
with friends at Fargo.
F,. M. Jones left Tuesday evening
for Teinvik, where he will build a
flour shed for the Occident hie\aur
Company.
M. Rush and children. K)ualeth
and Joseph, made an auto trip to
Strasburg Saturday, returning Sun­!
day evening.
Mrs S. A. (ieil. mother of Mer
chant A. L. Ceil, went to Bismarck
Saturday to register for a c:aim on
the Ft. Berthold reservation
Dr. and Mrs. J. Snyder have as
their guest the iatter's cousin. Mrs.
H. D. Copeland. of Chariton. Iowa.
She expects to remain in Haieiten
about a month.
R. J. Crandeil fell from the roof
of the Ferney blacksmith shop last
Sunday, striking his forehead on a
disk and indicting an ugly wound,
which required several stitches.
The crop of wheat on the quarter
of land recently owned by Thos.
Keily. and purchased last week by
Chas. Armstrong, averaged nearly
nine bushels to the acre. Not bad
for a dry year.
Mr. and Mrs. Jos. Heaiy. S. A.
Mikalson and Mrs. A. K. Tye re
turned Friday from a three-days' au
to trip to Aberdeen. The trip both
ways was made without accident or
trouble and in record time.
Joseph Baker came to town Tues
day morning to have a lacerated
finger sewed on. He had been cut
ting wood, and the ax struck one of
his fingers, cutting about a half.inch
of the small digit nearly o:T.
The Misses Frances Farreil of
Kintyre and Esther Junge and Ha
ze! Easton of Braddock visited Mon
day with Mrs. Wm. Marquett. That
evening they left for Strasburg, in
which vicinity the three young la
dies will teacn school this winter.
Most every farmer in the commu
nity is putting in a good large patch
of winter rye this year. The crop
has proven a great success in these
dry times, as the grain is matured
by the time the dry weather sets in.
and is consequently a sure crop.
F. P. Wernli is in the Capita! City
this week, doing grain decorating
for the state. His dainty designs
have come under the notice of Com
missioner Gilbreath' and the latter
gentleman just had to have Frank's
service for awhile, and perhaps per
manently.
Don Macdonald, of the Glencoe
neighborhood, visited friends and
school chums in Hazelton the first
two days of the week. He left on
the south-bound train Tuesday even
ing, but the stories as to his destin
ation were so numerous that it could
not be learned just where he was to
stop.
Speaking of riding bucking
bronks, the writer had a little ex
perience last Sunday, which will be
enough for a number of moons. The
outcome was so severe that it is yet
hard for him to sit down without
groaning and figiting around for a
soft spot on the chair and, besides
that, our intellect was jarred to
such an extent that excuse for lack
of brainy material in this issue hard
ly seems necessary—to us, at least.
Despite the fact that a large num
ber of farmers of this vicinity are
shipping their cream to the Twin
City commission-merchants, the lo
cal creamery is still in the fighting
arena with both feet. Last month's
report showed that 130 tubs of but
ter were shipped, which averaged
pounds to the tub. This makes a
total output for the month of s.liiO
pounds of butter.
Why They Applaud.
The chorus lady was taking in a
matinee performance. After each
appearance of the chorus she ap
plauded frantically, somewhat to
the surprise of her companion, who
could see nothing unusually mer
itorious in the ensemble's perform
ance.
Finally she nudged her escort.
"Go on and give 'em a hand," 6he
urged. "If they don't get an encore
for that the stage manager will read
the riot act to them. When they
don't get a good hand he doesn't
put the blame on a grouchy audi
ence, but thinks the girls didn't
work hard enough."
Thereupon the escort understood
why stage people are so generous
with their applause.—New York

Good For Evil.
Tommy returned sobbing from school
with a very bad black eye. "But I'll
pay Billy Blobbs oft for this In the
morning," he said. "No, no," replied
his mother, "you must return pood for
evil. I'll make you a nice jam tart,
and you must take it to Billy Blobbs
and say, told mother how you'd
punished me, nnd she says I must re
turn good for evil, so here's a nice
tart for you.'
The following morning, with tart in
one hand and his books In the other,
poor Tommy hastened Joyfully to
school, only to return In a sadder
plight than the day before, saying be
tween his sobs, "Mother, I gave your
jnfssugo nnd^tnrt to Billy Blobbs, and
ne blacked my other eye and says he
wants you to send him a pudding!"—

Mr. 1

When He Did Better.
A celebrated bishop once sat
through a long and atrocious ser
mon on a hot summer morning.
The preacher was a youth just out
of college—a very conceited youth.
He bellowed through his sermon at
the top of his lungs. His gestures
were violent enough to break his
arms. At every climax he fixed
the bishop with his eye to see if a
suitable impression had been made.
And at the end of the service this
young snip swaggered up to the
bishop and said:
'T fancy I did rather well today,
sir. Don't you think so?"
"Yes," returned the bishop "but
you did better last year."
'"Last year!" said the young man.
"'Why. I didn't preach at all last
year.''
"That's the reason," said tho
bishop, with a pleasant smile.

TITLES IN DENMARK.
There Are Nine Classes of Rank, With
Innumerable Subdivisions.
The Danish clai?i:ication of rank
a very elaborate "lie. built up of
offices, orders, birth and titles,
writes J. Broehner in "Datiis.i Life
In Town and Country." There are
cine classes, which are divided into
•s many as a dozen subsections, each
of which may again comprise a
score or two of dnTerent titles and
offices, yet there was a complaint in
one of the Danish paper? that it was
anything but complete.
Holders of titles have to pay an
annual tax ranging from £4-1.50 in
the first class to a mis.-rlv $3.33 in
the ninth. There are about a score
of different titles, several of whieh
are again divided into "real" and
"others,the "real" being several
shades better than the "others."
These titles are always used in
conversation, as. for example, "Will
not the ehamborlain have a cigar?"
or '"Mr. Chamberlain, will you not
have a cigar'" And it requires a
fairly clear head and a good mem
ory to give everybody his due in
large party, especially as some of
them are decorouslv Ions, as, for
instance, geheimcconfercntsrand.
Then there are ladies, who gen
erally have "inde" (the English
'*essv) added to their husbands'
title or office. A colonel's wife, for
instance, is called oberstinde, and
the wife of the chamberlain to the
king kammerherreinde, and so
forth.
But the subtleties of the addi
tional titular addres? in writing
even excel the verbal form. That
persons of the first rank are "excel
lencies" is only natural, but gentle
men of the second class have on
documents addressed to them a
"high well born" prefixed to their
title and name, and those of tho
third class a "high nnd well born."'
I much regret that I cannot explain
why the addition of this ''and"
should somewhat detract from tho
value of the same words.
Gentlemen of the ninth class are
addressed as "well honorable and
well bred," which is, I think, almost
more than they could expect for
their $.'."3.
BOTH SHOT DEAD.
the Famous Fight Between Choctaw
Carpenter and Price.
"The methods of lighting duels
among the Indians," said an old
frontiersman, "were varied, each
tribe having its own peculiar cus
tom. Some of the tribes learned to
fight according to the code of tho
white man, however, among these
the Choctaws or Cherokees, which
reminds me of the famous duel in
July of 1883, when the celebrated
Choctaw chief Carpenter fought
near the Fine Creek Indian agency
with a white man named Price.
Chief Carpenter was a splendid type
of Indian, tall and straight and
comely, and he had been well edu
cated and had natural talents and
instincts that put him head and
shoulders over his Indian associates.
"As usual, this trouble was start
ed by a disagreement over some
trivial matter, which caused a dis
pute and ended in tho white man
calling his red brother a liar.
Throughout the trouble the big In
dian had remained perfectly calm,
although considerably angered, and
aa the insult fell he gazed coldly
into the eyes of Trice and said:
our blood shall wash out that
word.'
'Whenever you're ready say the
word,' cried Price. 'You can do
your washing right here and now if
you please.'
'"Not now, eir, but tomorrow
morning, when the sun peeps over
the top of that wild plum tree, you
must be here and without fail.'
"The report of the duel spread
far and wide, and at an hour con
siderably before sunrise large
crowd had gathered on the dueling
ground to witness the encounter.
Price was the first on the field, and
for a time it looked as if there
would be no Carpenter. But, true
to his Indian blood, the chief dis
dained coming too soon to the ap
pointed place as much as he would
have feared coming too late, and it
was just as the first rays of the sun
stole over the soft green of the tree
that the red man stood in place.
Not a word was spoken bv either
man. Both drew their pistols and,
raising the weapons, thev fired al
most simultaneously. Carpenter
reeled, but with a mighty effort
cheeked a tendency to spin round,
and, staggering, fired as the crack of
his opponent's pistol sounded for
the second time. This time Price
jumped high in the air and landed
on his face stono dead.
"With a wild shout the crowd
pressed forward to surround the
luekv chief, but before aid could
reach him he fell senseless. Price
had been shot through the heart,
clean a* a whistle, a remarkable shot
considering the condition of the In
dian when he made it. and a shot
Carpenter could have made in the
first place without a doubt had he
been as determined to kill as Price
proved himself when his bullet bur
ied itself in the Indian's breast."
Ha Got Hip.
Looking up from his magazine
rne night he remarked to bis wife,
"Do you know what I'd have don,,
if I had been Napoleon!-" "Von,"
she ansvvered. "You'd have net tic,I
down in Corsica and spent voiir IIfn
prumbling about bad luck and hard
times."
A LESSON IN MANNERS.
This duke, contemptuously not
ing the eagerness with which New
Yorkers fawned upon him, had
formed tho habit of going out to
3£nner without troubling himself to
on evening dress. A ladv had
invited him to dinner without know
ing of this peculiarity and was
awaiting his arrival when her butler
opened the door and cast a glance
her over the heads of intervening
puest3 which said plainly that some
thing was wrong.
She hastened into the hall to find
the duke standing there clad in the
checked sack suit and flaming red
tie which had seemed to him "good
enough" for a dinner party of
American calf worshipers. This wo
man. however, had presence of
mind, and she advanced upon him
radiant nnd smiline.
"No," she said decisively 03 she
took him by the hand, "I won't ac
ecpt any excuses. You've eome
around to tell me why it is that you
can't dine here tonight, and it's ever
so much nicer of you to do that
than just to send a note. The din*
ner's a little late, and voti've just
time to go home and dress and be
back here before wo begin."
The nobleman openea his mouth
to reply, but his hostess shut him
oil in a second: "No you needn't
make any explanations or excuses.
Eemembcr, you've only twenty min
utes, so you must hurry."
A moment later the astounded
duke found himself hurrying to
ward his hotel and perhaps wonder
ing what new social force it waa
that was impelling him in that di
rection.
THE ROUND ROBIN.
No One deems to Know the Origin of
the Strange Term.
A "round robin'' is one of those
documents of whieh the name is fa
miliar to most people, but which
uncommonly few have ever seen or
signed. Every one knows that the
thing which bears so singular a
tame is a comnrunication—letter,
remonstrance, warning or the like
—the signatures to which are writ
ten around the circumference of the
circle which incloses the body of
the epistle or radiating therefrom
like the spokes of a wheel from a
hub, so that the responsibility of
signing is equally shared. No one
signatory can be accused of being
either the first or the last to sign,
of being the leader or the whipper
in.
The most famous example on rec
ord probably is the remonstrance
which was sent to Dr. Johnson in
connection with his epitaph on Oli
ver Goldsmith. The doctor had
prepared an epitaph in Latin, but
some of his friends, who had also
been friends of Goldsmith, took ca
ception to it on two gTounds, the
first being that it did not quite do
justice to the author of the "Trav
eler" as a writer, and particularlv
as a poet, and tne second that it
should be written in English. The
party of friends were gathered
around Sir Joshua Reynolds' hos
pitable if somewhat ill served table,
and though they found themselves
in ^general agreement on ihese two
points no one had the courage to
be willing to "bell the cat," or, in
other words, to take the lead in
tackling tho formidable Johnson on
these two rather delicate matters.
"At last," says Sir William Forbes,
"it was hinted that there could be
no way so good as that of a round
robin, as the sailors call it, which
they make use of when they enter
a conspiracy so as not to let it be
known who puts bis name first or
last to the paper."
lhe idea was at once accepted,
the address to Dr. Johnson waa pre
pared, and all signed ivin the form
proposed. This very interesting pa
per is still extant and is preserved
among other valuable manuscripts
in the library of llaigh llall, near
Wigan, the seat of the Earl of
Crawford. It begins, "We, the cir
cumscribers,' and tho signatures,
written around the circle which in
closes the address, include those of
Gibbon. Burke, Joseph Warton,
Sheridan, Sir Joshua ltevnolds, I
