9 4- JL NEIGHBORS. When Farmer Never-raind-lt found1 The winter bad fulfilled its span. He hustled out, and hurried 'round. And hired his neighbor's extra man: Jtrf And through the spring till almost May He frittered half his time away. He let his broken fences He Just where the winds had thrown them last At for the weeds, he wondered why They got ahead of him so fast But, when a weed began to show, .He let it go, and let It grow. «i "When Farmer Perseverance sowed His valley-gardens, rich and wide. He mended fences, weeded, hoed, With all a sturdy toiler's pride And, all the growing season through. He said he found enough to do. And when upon his well-kept farm A blight would satisfy its greed. He made amends for every harm. And kept ahead of every weed And, if the weather fouled or cleared, He persevered, and persevered. —Frank Walcott Hutt, In Farm Journal. 1 Iw, V# 7x HER PUNISHMENT By Henri DeForge. (Copyright, 1961, by Authors Syndicate.) \7" OU will never be a success, my friend." Martha Dubreuil said this in a tone half railing and half jesting. Pierre raised his head without an swering and twitched nervously the page blackened by ink. It was the twentieth time at least that his wife lad made such remarks, and what •was worse, he realized sorrowfully that she spoke the truth. Once he had written a book of which he had been proud, a novel launched timidly by a publisher who made him pay the cost of publication. That was an hour of ambitious dreams, long since dissipated by the grim reality. "I will amount to something in the •world," he had said resolutely. And •he believed it as did those who ad mired him—which is to say his mother, Jiis sister and some of his friends who read the book. Martha, his wife, was not one of these admirers. She told Jiim frankly again and again: "You -will amount to nothing." He had no answer to make to Mar tha's sneers, and he suffered keenly in recalling the lucky days when they -walked together as lovers along paths bordered by flowers and they made TOWS to each other and kissed. "You -will be a great man, my darling," she bad said then. Pierre believed that he had been faithless in not keeping his promise of greatness made four years before. She had brought him her youth and beauty, and he ought to have given her in exchange the literary fame she had «xpected, and have earned a fortune ior her by his pen. But now she had Abandoned those cherished dreams of reflected glory. The poor fellow recalled the happy •days that had preceded their marriage, and the delights of their companion ship during their honeymoon. And he •answered to her taunt: "So much the worse, my dear. But we love each other, and that is enough." He would not have cared for the plaud its of the crowd if he had had the love •of Martha. But she broke into laugh ter that froze his feeble smile. "Oh, yes, indeed. That's well •enough. One can't live on love. It is all very well to say so in the novels you •write—or count on writing—but in real life things are different." When summer came they went to the seashore, Pierre securing an ap pointment as the resort correspondent of a newspaper. When he told her that they were going, she said: "Ah, you are a nice husband, after all." And she smiled, but the smile was given as in alms. At the seashore she was soon the belle of the place, and people forgot about her husband, the reporter, who remained in the shade. Some men were •with her much of the time, and gossip linked her name with that of a wealthy idler. Pierre ventured to speak of it. "What of it?" she asked. "The man amuses me with his compliments. You know that I am an honest woman. But I need amusement." Dubreuil's sufferings were intense. The thought of that imbecile who -was ever at Martha's side bruised his Tieart. He wanted to strangle him in the crowded ballroom and longed •for a duel. But the man was influ ential and a litterateur of renown. A duel between them would have "been grotesque and useless. The count deigned to interest him self a little in Pierre. "Let us write a piece, my young •friend," said he, "and I will give you recommendations. A man has talent, -when he has the sense to win a wife as pretty as yours." "Yes, Pierre, why haven't you some thing on hand?" said his wife. One evening when he was in the little room, he seated himself at his work table, while his wife, who had •danced too much, slept peacefully. He rested his head on his hands and thought sadly: "Yes, Martha's love for me has passed." White paper was in front of him. It was one 'of those silent nights that tempt a writer, a night of stars and silence. "I will try to work," he mused. Feverishly he took up his pen. He wrote of things and thoughts such as he had in his heart, speaking of the happy past and the chagrin of the present, of charming memories and the painful reality. All night he. worked upon his work of life and emotion. "Up already, Pierre?" exclaimed Maitha. when she opened her pretty eyes in the morning. "At what are you working, my early bird?" "What difference does it make?" •aid be, coldly. "You know well that I am capable of nothing.* 6o each evening while Martha slept Pierre worked,. He arose stealthUj like a robber to write without arous ing suspicion. He felt that it was his last chance to write something worth while. Several days later Pierre and Us wife went back to the city. He was loath to leave, but Martha was hap py in anticipation of new triumphs. Her devoted count liad promised to open new, and yet more fashionble, houses to her. "We will push your husband," he said, in a protecting tone. "Work, Pierre," added Martha. "The indorsement of the count is val uable. Don't throw away the chance Pierre Dubreuil did not answer. Nowadays he appeared to be indif ferent to all that went on around him. One day at the end of a melan choly dinner tete-a-tete with Martha he said: "By the way, the Gymnase will pre sent a play of mine in a few weeks. The newspapers made the announce ment this morning." "What!" exclaimed his wife, curi ously. xou have said nothing of it to me!" "What was the use? I have always had such bad luck with my work that I have not mentioned this one even to you." Martha was satisfied and the thought of a play by her husband pleased her vanity. She liked to im agine herself in a box on the opening night. She kissed her husband on both cheeks. "Are you content?" he asked, anx iously. ."Yes indeed, my husband," she answered. When the time approached for the representation Martha was hsppy. For the newspapers contained many advance notices and most of them spoke of the play as excellent. The play presented at the Gymnase was not a comedy, but a drama of great depth and emotional strength representing a drama of the strong est human emotions. The blase pub lic was delighted. It was a trii.mph with few precedents in the enthusi asms it aroused. It was a master's work that people said would place the author among the rank of the world's foremost dramatists. Martha, charmingly Pressed in mauve, was in a box with a crowd of friends, among who was the per sistent count. From the first words of the play she was surprised. The story acted on the stage was familiar to her. It seemed as if she had had the same experiences in the days of her courtship. She clapped her little hands in applause, proud to listen to the clever words and. charmed to see the dead days revived. She sought to glance in the eyes of her husband hid den behind a curtain of the box. In the second act the action grew quicker. A crisis came between the man and wife. The words they spoke were those that had passed between Martha and Pierre. Evidently he had put his own experience into the play. It" was interesting, but what would come next? Martha had been so in different to Pierre that she could not guess. The third act was admirable. In the drama the suffering of her hus band was analyzed with a master's hand, cruel in his resignation, tor ture and tenderness. The role of the woman was studied with a psycholo gy delicate and mocking. It was a masterpiece. Martha listened with beating h«art_ Each phrase spoken by the comedi ans was for her like the stab of a dagger. Was it possible that she had made Pierre suffer like that? For by this time she knew that her true his tory was being told on the stage. "Bravo," shouted the count, who did not understand the real meaning of the play. "My friend, your husband, is a clever fellow, and we will make something of him." But Martha did not answer. She stifled her emotion. "Take my arm," said the count, at the end. "Not to-day," she answered. shall be proud to go on the arm of my husband." Pierre followed her with difficulty, making a passage through the admir ing crowd. When in the street his friends crowded to congratulate them. They wished to give them a supper. When the supper had ended and they reached home in that house where Pierre had experienced so much hap piness and grief, Martha fell on hrr knees before him and broke into teai Thirteen Not a Hoodoo. "Well, Miss Bingham isn't supei* stitious." The remark was made during tie performance of "The Climbers" by a man with a statistical turn of min "Here's little old No. 13 all oVtp the place.

"I can climax that," remarked a bystander. "Clyde Fitch read The Climbers' to Miss Bingham on a Fri day contracts were signed on the following Friday, and it was first read to the company on the thir teenth of the month." "How do you know?" testily in quired the first speaker, annoyed that anyone else should have taken away the glory of his discovery. "I happen to be Mr. Fitch."—X. Y. Telegram.

London's New Bishop Has Faith in Him and His Future. Or. Ingram a Practical Man of Af fair* Rather Than a Scholar One of the Orlsrlnatora of "Settlement 'Work." English folk at home and over seas are yet talking of the new bishop of London of his early work, his "discovery" by Dr. Maclagan, now archbishop of York, his labors at Oxford house, his disputations in Victoria park and now his elevation after only 17 years in holy orders to the most responsible position, next to the primacy, which the Church of England has to offer. It is as the friend, the practical friend, of that multitudinous British individual, the man in the street, that Dr. Ingram has won his reputa tion. The winning of it has been done since 1888. Before that his life had been much like that of any young Englishman destined to the church. He was born 43 years ago in Worcestershire. His father was Rev. E. Winnington-Ingram, of Stanford rectory and Ribbesford house and on his mother's side he is a grand son of Dr. Pepys, who was bishop of Worcester from 1841 to 1861. He was educated at Marlborough col lege, and took a scholarship at Kcble college, Oxford, where he was un der Dr. Talbot, with whom he will now share the episcopal oversight in London. He was ordained deacon and priest by the bishop of Lichfield in 1884, and licensed to the curacy of St. Mary's, Shrewsbury. Two years later he became private chap lain to his bishop, Dr. Maclagan, now archbishop of York, who may fair ly be said to have discovered hint. Then, in 1888-89, he entered on the work which ultimately brought him to the front, as head of Oxford house, at Bethnal Green. Cauon RT. REV. DR. INGRAM. (Recently Created Bishop of London by King Edward VII.) Henson had preceded him, and had found the task almost more than his strength could cope with. Mr. Ingram brought to it an untiring vigor, and he established at once a close bond of interest between the young Oxonians and the work of the settlement. He developed its activi ties both on the social side and on the argumentative. Sunday after Sunday he stood in Victoria park, welcoming the argu ments of the atheists and meeting them with a style of eloquence which began insensibly to assimilate itself to their own. In Victoria park, that arena of free speech, he took his stand among the socialists with their red flag, the Salvation Army with its brass band, the labor party, the secularists, the Mormons, ubiquitous gentleman with fads, and cranks of all varieties. The appearance of a "real parson" in the midst of these groups was sufficiently novel to bring a crowd, and it is to Bishop In gram's credit (and the secret of his success in other directions) that he could hold it. Humor, point, repar tee and pertinent anecdote—all of these are his and they only kept the people agape while serious words were deftly inserted. It is still easy, as one hears him preach in St. Paul's, to reconstruct the scene in the park, and as a preacher the bishop will probable carry the effects of it through life. It is his practical way of doing the day's work in the slums around Bethnal Green that is his chief char acteristic, and no sketch of the new bishop is complete without a refer ence to it. When he went to Oxford house, near by stood the first church that was built in that district. The inhabitants had given nothing to it, but some of them said they would subscribe sixpence to hang the bish op when he came to consecrate it. For these people the mission of Ox ford house was threefold it sought to save their bodies, minds and spir its. It got at the bodies and minds flrst, and as these grew clejaner it touched thsir souls. The creation of clubs was the first process—self-gov erning clubs, with all sorts of amuse ments and athletics. The boys are reached first, and they came in out of the streets, and learned to behave, keep clean, play fair and idolize their club. Then followed the men, and, elsewhere, the girls and women. The clubs were purely social clubs—there was no buttonholing for evangelistic purposes but out of the clubs grew debtaing societies and lectures and a spirit of inquiry, and this led to personal intercourse and influence, and so on to Bible classes, and Sun day talks, and all the rest. To all this Ingram gave the ideal and the impetus, and over It and In it he worked night and dar. CHARLES H. DIETRICH. Vow United State* Senator from H» hraalta Poshed Hlntaelf to the Front by Hla Own Efforts. Charles H. Dietrich is essentially self-made man. Unswerving persever ance, indomitable determination, un flinching courage and great generos ity have been recognized as his distin guishing characteristics since he first entered the political arena. He has a striking personality, and through his individual efforts has risen from obscurity to a seat in the United States senate. He was born in Chi cago in 1853. His parents were born in Germany. In 1848 his father was forced to leave his native land be CHARLES H. DIETRICH. (Elected United States Senator from Ne« braska Until 1905.) cause of his sympathy with the cause of the patriots, and lie went to Que bec. A few months later his mother came to America, landing at New Or leans. After a long search, geograph ically strikingly similar to the search of Evangeline for Gabriel, they found each other in St. Louis, whence they came to Chicago. At the age of 12 Charles secured employment on a farm and after re maining at that work three years he went to St. Joseph, Mo., and engaged in the hardware business. He after ward returned to Chicago, and fol lowing the same line of employment saved enough to embark in the hard ware business for himself in Arkan sas. In 1875 he was robbed by high way men, left almost destitute and dying and had to begin all over again. He encountered numberless hardships until he struck luck in a mine which he disposed of to eastern capitalists for a considerable sum. In May, 1878, he married Miss Elizabeth Slaker at Aurora, Wyo., and located in Hast ings, where he embarked in the mer cantile business. Mr. Dietrich worked in his store all day, and in the evening delivered goods to customers in a wheelbar row. His 'business met with success from the start, and he soon became one of the foremost citizens of Hast ings. He was there instrumental in organizing the German national bank of Hastings, of which institution he was president at the time he received the republican nomination for gov ernor of Nebraska early in 1900. HAS GREAT POWERS. \V. W. Rockhlll, Special Commis sioner of the American Govern ment at Peking China. W. W. Rockhill, who is now discharg ing the duties of special commissioner to China at Peking, has as delicate a commission as has ever been instrust ed to an American diplomat. It is ex pressly said that he is in China merely as an observer for the president. W. W. ROCKHILL. (Spcclal Commissioner of the United States at Peking.) While that is technically true !t is also a fact that he is intrusted with full diplomatic powers in the interest of an early settlement of the Chinese problem. While Mr. Rockhill is not and there is no intention of making him the successor of Minister Conger, he is the direct agent of flie United States government in the field, and his powers are very great. All Mr. Rockhill's training has been along lines to fit him for the task that is now his. When Mr. Rockhill left the United States he was of opinion that it would not be sufficient merely to look into conditions in Shan-Tung province and in Peking, but that it would be necessary for him to visit other provinces and cities where there was disquiet and danger to foreign in terests. Then he will be able to give the president a comprehensive outline of the Chinese conditions up to date. Eataraaee of Chilian Horaea. Chilian cavalry horses have been put through a remarkable test of en durance. Twenty-one officers mount ed on their ordinary chargers rode 250 miles in three days, covering 81 miles the first day, 81 the second, and 88 the third. The route was over rough mountain roads, in some places 3,000 feet above sea level. All the horses were bred in Chili. NOBTH DAKOTA SEWS A Science Hail. The old board of resents of the state university held Its tinat meetirtg and passed on bills against the institution.

Towte, of Park River, met ana organised.« The matter, of building' a science: hall in connection with the university ftas the most important business considered. The matter was discussed at the afternoon session, which lasted nearly five hours. It was Anally decided that the new build ing should be erected. The structure will cost 920,000. Plans and specifications will be ordered immediately, and it is expected that work will commence as soon as the plans are approved. Shot. A message from Blanchard. Traill county, says that Charles Boecher, aged 1G, the son of Herman Boecher, a farmer living Ave miles southwest of Blanchard shot his sister, aged 10,-and his brother, aged 6, yesterday evening. The girl is dead, and -ie boy not expected- to live The shooting is supposed to have been ac cidental, but this does not appear to be certain, as only cnildren were present at the time, and the boy who did the shoot ing has disappeared. As nearly as can be learned,! Mr. and Mrs. Boecher had gone to church, leav ing their children and several neighbor children In chargo of the oldest son, Charles. The boy had been Retting his gun ready to go goose hunting, and in some way the weapon was discharged. The Rush Continues. As a result of the great rush of Immi grants to the western part of this state the land office located in this city Is doing an immense business. For the tirst week in April the filing for this year is a rec ord breaker, there being over 250 entries made the past week, embracing about 40,000 acres of land in Bottineau, Pierce and McHenry counties. The cash re ceipts for the same time were upwards of 17,500. In connection with this business, hundreds of letters are received daily from persons seeking information, some of which are amusing. The officers ana clerks In the office are working overtime in consequence of the rush. A Good Investment. Some years before his death. Gov. Briggs bought a number of shares of iron mine stock for practically nothing, but at no time did he consider them oi'any special value. After his death Mrs Briggs held on to the stocks through ne cessity, there being no demand for it. Finally the Rockefeller iterests took up the mining property and one day this winter Mrs. Briggs found herself sudden ly worth $30,000 more than she figured. She refused to sell the stock to the syn dicate and the big Jump of the stock to 200 has increased the value of Mrs. Briggs' holdings to something like 180,000. Rebate In Taxes. The county commissioners of Grand Forks county, granted the, petition of of ficers of the Deaconess' Hospital asso ciation to rebate the taxes against the property on the ground that it was a charitable institution. The matter has been before the commission on several occasions In the past and was carried into the courts. The officers of the association appeared before the board and showed that patients were received without re gard to religion, color or whether or not they had money to pay for their carc. The taxes amounted to.nearly {210. v. Immigration The Immigration Into l.orth Dakota from Iowa and Wisconsin and parts of Minnesota is above all records of the former periods. About $20,000 worth of personal property has already been brought Into Richland county, and stock to the amount of about $8,000 into Sheyenne township. The land is selling here for 910 an acre and will probably rise to $12 before long.
