Some months ago he left for parts unknown and to the surprise of everybody with whom he was acquaint" ed he came back last week. He went from here to Kansas City where he found friends who gaye him employ ment. For years while he lived in this part of the country he bad a contract of gathering all the coal that fell from the coal cars along the railroad between Bismarck and Mud creek which in part gave him fuel but he never took coal from the cars though many time he could have done so. No one can pass the enclosed part of Bismarck without the special notice of the herd now feeding on grass. In this group of cattle or thir.y all told.

This is the coming dairy herd of Bismarck. They are all young and when these cat tie are large enough no one who sees them but will be proud of these cows. The little island No. 3 almost directly south of Bismarck in the river was taken a few days ago for ettlsment under the squatter laws. Thre is about ten acres in the island all covered with timber of a young dense growth.

It is to be cleared and put under culture by a sailor who has been all over tbe civilized world including the islands of the Pacific as well as the Atlantic The island is just above high water mark so that no fears need i taken of tide wash outs in the Eaw. The matter of sub-irrigation on this piece of soil need not be tried for the water is there for all purposes. This place has in ages past been fertilized by wild geese that in droves of thousands spend the long evenings among the willows when pursued by hunters on the wheat fields south of the river. Mr. 8.

LADIES, YOU Neighbor's Son Accused of the Lam- born Harder- PIT IV Jin IW IFlVFVWfllTH uiiaimin 1U ine Officers of Leavenworth Coimtv Make the Arrest and the Toungr Man Refuses to Talk About the Murder Daughter Suspected. Thomas Davenport was arrested at Fall Leaf and placed in the county jail at Leavenworth, last evening on the charge of murdering J. L.

Lamborn near Fall Leaf on Monday night of last week. Davenport was 23 years old and was keeping company with the murdered man's daughter. On the night of the murder Davenport and the daughter attended a party together and the old man was left in the house alone. There was no robbery connected with the murder. Davenport refuses to talk about the murder in anv way.

His father owns a farm close to the Lamborn farm. It IB said the arrest of Lamborn' daughter is likely to follow. Leaven worth and other detectives have been working on the case for several days. The arrest of Davenport was at the instance of Judge Newton Minn, who went to Fall Leaf Monday to investigate and look over the property and papers of the deceased. Sheriff Rothenberger told Judge Mann to make an investigation and to haye any one arrested whom he thought was guilty of killing the aged man.

It is said that the judge soon found strong circumstantial evidence against Davenport and he decided to have him arrested. Tbe arrest was made by Deputy Sheriff Fowel Latum at Fall Leaf, but Dew yuty Sheriff Reese Cadwallader, of Ton ganoxie brought Davenport in. Tne prisoner made no effort to get away and took things very cool. He says that he is innocent of any coc nection with the murder, but does not care to make any statement at this time He has secured John T. O'Keefe to de fend him.

Davenport is a bright looking young man 22 years old. and his father is a well to do farmer living near Fall Leaf. He had been keeping company with Mies Lamborn for some time and took her to a party on the night that her father was so brutally killed. The second inquest has not been con eluded and it will be resumed Saturday, It is said that some testimony of a sen sational kind will be brought out. Leayenworth Times.

The feeling in the neighborhood has been growing more intense every day since the discovery of the murder, and the neighbors are very anxious tc have tne crime ferreted out. and the ciiminals brought to justice. They have given the officers all the aid in their power and should the right man be caught for a certainty, it is thought the excited feel. iDgs of the people will find some sort of expression. Rev.

House Warming. Having arranged with the "Triumph' Heater Co. to handle their line of hot air and air blast furnaces, we shall- es teem it a favor if those who wish to heat in this manner will call and see us before making contracts. In this connection we wish to say that we are still pushing the hot water heat ing business, and still adyocate this method as being the best and in the long run the cheapest way to beat a residence but in view of tha fact that the first cost is. in many instances, greater than some people can afford to pay, leads us to the conclusion that there will always be a demand for furnace heating.

We haye therefore placed ourselves in a position to handle this class of trade, and respect fully solicit in this line. Lawbbnce Plumbing Hkatenq Co. For cigars.

Bev.Fenn'e Second Sermon at tbe Unl- tarian Church-The second of the series of discourses being delivered evenings this week at the Unitarian church, was given lsat night by Rey. W.

W. Fenn of Chicago. He spoke on "The Bible as a Help to the Religious Life" and a synopsis of his re marks follows: It is evident that1 a change has come oyer the thoughts Of men, tooth without and within the church, concerning the Bible and the place it must hold in our esteem. One result of this change has been a tendency to disparage the Bible reading and to neglect its use. This is, of course, illogical, for even though the Bible be merely a human book like Ham let, the Odyssey, or Bacons' Essays, its worth for guidance and coma fort may still, like theirs, be great Theieforeit is from the point of view of those to whom tne Bible is a purely human book that I wish to speak this evening, hoping to make clear the large usefulness cf the Bible so considered.

The Bible is literature. To this, every one knowing anything of the Bible and haying the least appreciation of litera ture win assent, it comprises many kinds of literature: history, poetry, folk lore, philosophy, letters, orations. pamphlets (like the polical pamphlets of tha eighteenth century) and the drama, all are represented in the Bible. It answers to the varying moods of man as fully as Shaksoere: it has entrancing stories which hold child ren spell-bound, words of enthusiasm for the youth eager to play a man's part in the world, sentences of comfort and hope for those whose strength is spent and over whom the shadows gather. One characteristic of the Bible literature is its surprising variety.

Another is its national qualuv. The book is more the product of the nation which unconsciously selected and gath ered together in body than ot the indi vidua! authors. Its unity is not the uaitv of a picture puzzle of which the pieces were sent down from heaven at various times, but that of a growing organism vital instead of mechanical. Therefore is it progressive also, representing the nation at various stages of its intellectual development. Therefore the Bible deserves to be read as noble literature.

Its books need not fear comparison with even the masterpieces of Greea and Roman literature. It is as discreditable for our educated men to be ignorant of Isaiah and the prelates as not to know his Mil ton and SLakepere, nis and Cicero. Again the Bible furnishes rich and indispensable mateaials for the Btudy of Jewish history. Considering the part played by the Jaw in human history, we ought to study the origin and growth of his nation or carefully as we study the history of Greece and Rome. Moreoyer, the Bible has entered into our noblest civilization, to it many of our politician ideals are traceable and from it has come inspiration for our loftiest poetry, art and music.

It is almost increditable that a student of civilization should disregard the Bible, finally, its ideal is the na tion, not the individual, and in its ing of righteousness lies the secret of national well being. In the name, there-tore, of literature, history, civilization, patriotism, one may plead for the continued use of the Bible. But the chief function of literature is to transmit personality and its Bubstan tial value is determined by the worth of the personality conveyed. The person ality which the ible brings to us is that of the Hebrew nation which had a pe culiar genius for religion. Therefore the Bible Is 01 paramount importance as a help to the religious life.

It gives us the story of the evolution of religious ideas in Israel from the crudest animism up to the noblest transcendentalism. Therefore a man at any stage of his eligious growth can find its match in the Bible and so enter the full stream of religious evolution which shall bear him on to nobler forms. As an aid to one who seeks the religion of holiuess and helpfulness springing out of a generous and loving heart it has no superior in literature of the world Moreover, much as the Bible has given to men, it has receiyed almost as much from them. Its pages have had added consecration from the multitude of holy lives whose hope and trust and valor have been nourished by it. The Bible is more today than it was eighteen centuries ago, by the gains of christian thought and experience which hallow its pages.

Regarding the Bible as a human book, with supernatural origin or sanction whatsoever, as human af the works of Emsrson, Rankin or Carlisle, it is still stupendous folly to one who would cultivate the higher religious life to disregard this wondrous Book cf the Spirit. The meeting tonight will be addressed bv Mr Fenn, and begins at 9:30. An in-vitation to the public to attend is ex tended. SEEDS. All kinds: Flower seeds.

There is comfort in the knowledge that so many forms of tickness are not due to any actual disease, but simply to a constipated condition of the system, which the pleasant family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt ly removes. That is why it is the only remedy with millions of families, and is esteemed so highly by all wno vaine gooa neann. lis penenciu effects are due to the fact, that it is the one remedy which promotes internal Cleanliness, without debilitating the orcans on which it acts. is therefore all important, in order to get its beneficial effects, to note when yon purchase, that you have the genuine article, which is manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. only, and sold by all rep- uiaoie aruggisis.
