DAKOTA COUNTY HERALD, DAKOTA CITY, NEBRASKA. GLORY ACCRUES TO LEADER To Be Remtmbertd, One Has Only to Be First In Some Undertaking That Succeeds. Adam's dory was In being the first man, and Eve'u In bdnK the tlrst worn uh. They have been talked of through all the centuries for nothing except that they were the first to live, the first to be tempted and the first to full. And so it Is with many other per sons and events that find their places In history. Always It 1 the begin nings of things that shed glory on the participants. Christopher Columbus Iiu'n Just been honored ugalu because lie) wan the first to discover America, und the landing of the Pilgrims Is celebrated because they were the first to colonize Massachusetts. Harvard rejoices In being the first Institution of learning 1n what Is now the United Spates and having set up the first printing press. The tlrst settlers of any community are always persons of prime Interest, und the first man to wear pantaloons or carry an umbrella, If ,llvlng today, could coin money by putting himself on exhibition. If one wants to be remembered, one has only to pick out the spot where a great city Is to he built, or connect himself with an Industry that Is bound to grow, or do something that Is bound to become the fashion. He Is at once Immortalized. Oenerntlon ufter gen eration will speak his name, and on anniversary occasions orators will sound his praise. He may be Individ ually no greater than thousands who hiive come after, but the glory of hav ing been the first will he upon him fdrever and a day. ColumhUH Dis patch. SET RECORD FOR PROFLIGACY Danish Courtier, Hundreds of Ysars Ago, Started Fashion Copied by , Some Modern "Sports." The "sport" who lights his cigar etswlth $0 bills had the pace aet hun dreds of years ago by courtiers' In the reign of Queen Caroline Matilda of Denmark. Bills worth $80 were used by tbem as pipe lighters, and the lead ership was taken by an old roue, Count llautzau, who, although GO, won tie love of the beautiful Sophlti I.lveraet, of the royal bullet, u maid of 18 years. Itantzuu was the bruins be hind the plot that broke the rule of ihe guilty queen uud her lover, Dr. Struensec, und put the dowager iieen, Jullunu Murlu, In power. That astute lady promptly turned oi Itantzuu uud ordered him banished. lie was sunk In melancholy, but brightened long enough to give u HUiIas of bulls and entertainments iu'6re brilliant than any the kingdom had known. Then he drew his pistol, and all would have been over had not the lovely Sophia entered at that mo ment und by Hinging u trio of old melodies to the tinkle of her harp, Won back his desire to live. He did not die until many years later, nnd then died us he would have wished to ile with his boots on, uud us the result of u duel In France over the fuvor of u ludy. Capt. Roger Clap to His Children. '.toger Clap's words to his children vere : y'You have better food and rulment (Iran was In former times; but have .you better hearts than your forcfuth-&-H hud? If so, rejoice In that mercy, and 1ft New England then shout for joy. Sure all the, people of (iod In iher parts of the world, that shall hear the children and grandchildren Of the llrtit plunters of New England 'liuvo better hearts, and nre more heav enly than their predecessors, they will doubtless greatly rejoice, nnd will say: This Is Uio generation whom the Lord hath blessed.'" , 'Capt. Roger Clap, an English colon '1st In America, was one of the foun ders of Dorchester, Muss., mttllug there In 1030. He was captuln of the fort or "cnstle" on Castle Islund from 1CG5 to 1080, nfter which, until his death, he lived In Huston. He Is best remembered for his "Memoirs," which he prepared about 1070, but which were not published until 1731, when they were edited by Thomas Prince. Porridge, a Talisman. Porridge is what the Scots are brought up on; that and theology, und the curious thing Is that only those who come from north of Mie Tweed know the secret of howto muke It. The English have a breakfast dish made with oats, while the people of the United States are perfectly frank about It und call It "oatmeal," Thr Scots liuve been accused of being clan nUli, but It muy he Unit they ure only fond of their uutlonul dish, A trav eler In Cuuudu one morning alighted from the trulu ut Scotia Junction.
