The New Light Among the Redskins.

We can imagine how astonished our
forefathers would have been at the cleo
rio light. 1t would have been re.
garded as sorcery in the ancient world,
and as Of diabolical origin in the middle
ages. 1t is no wonder, therefore, that
the savages on the plains were Devil
dered when it was first shown to them.
Mr.. FL. e. Thompson, electrician, OF ST.
Paul, has just returned from the Mis-
souri,, where he went to mount an elec.
trio light OH the Rosebud" of tue
Coulson line of Missouri aud Yellow
stone steamers, tells some interesting
stories Of the effect of the white mans
electric light business on the noble red
man at Fort Berthold. Upon arriving
at the post, large assortment of red
skins, their sisters, their cousins and
their aunts were assembled on the shore
in fine shape. While contemplating
the new-fangled light, which seemed to
eclipse the full orbed moon, Mr.. Thomp-
son turned the light full apon the gup.
ing crowd with wierd and picturesque
effect. The astonished aborigines were
paralyzed for a moment and then they
set up dismal chant, lay down and
rolled over and paved up the sage bush,
and made the ambient air tremble with
their antics and articulations. They
were finally assured that the big medi-.
cine of the white man was harmless,
and then they assumed an attitude of
quiescent bewilderment. They con
gregated upon the shore and gazed
upon the illuminated surroundings with
mingled emotions of awe and admira-
ton, expressing their feelings in deep
gutteral accents. At woodward up
the river the light was turned in full
force upon the pile, and the dusky
owner sought hiding place, from
which he could not be induced to
emerge. The machine mounted on the
Rosebud" was O 5000 candle power,
and it is no wonder the superstitious
natives were stricken with terror

Cold Winters.

The following statistics OF the good
old winters are curious:
In 401, the Black Sea was entirely
frozen over.
In 1853. not only the Black Sea, but
the Straits of Dardanelles, were frozen
over; the snow in some places rose fifty
feet high.
In 800, the great rivers of Europe
the Danube, the Elbe, etc.-were so
hard frozen as to bear heavy wagons
for month.
In $50, the Adriatic was frozen.
In 991, everything was frozen; the
crops totally failed, and famine and
pestilence closed the year.
In 1867, the most of tho travellers in
Germany were frozen to death on the
roads.
In 1888, the Pc was frozen from Gre
mona to the sea; the wine casks were
burst, and even the trees split by the
action of the frost with immense noise.
In 1886, the Danube was .rozen to
the bottom, and remained long in that
state.
In 1916, the crops wholly failed in
Germany; wheat, which some years be-
core sold in England at six shillings
the quarter, rose to two pounds.
In 1889, the crops failed in Scotland,
and such famine ensued that the poor
were reduced to feed on grass, and
many persisted miserably in the fields.
The successive winters of 1882 49, "a
we're uncommonly severe. It once
showed forty days without interruption.
In 1853 the wine distributed to the
soldiers in Flanders was cut with
hatchets.
In 1884 the winter was excessively
cold. Most of the hollies were killed.
Coaches drove along the Thames, the
ice of which was eleven inches thick.
In 1909 occurred the cold winter. The
frost penetrated three yards into the
ground. :,
In 1716, booths were erected and
fairs held on the Thames.
In 1744 and 1745, the strongest ale
in England, exposed to the air, was Gov
cred in less than fifteen minutes with
ice an eighth of an inch thick.
In 1909, and again in 1872, the win
ters we're remarkably cold.
In 1914 there was fair on the frozen
Thames.

A Shepherds Dog.

A San Antonio (Tex.) correspondent
catalogues the accomplishments OF q
collie pup as follows:
I have seen him at word from the
shepherd, round up and put between
sixteen and seventeen hundred sheep
in pen (many of them wild Mexicans,)
and not chase nor crowd any of them.
The little chap would mass this large
flock of scattered sheep and direct them
toward the pen in half the time that
several men could do it. When PEN
ming the sheep he had to work them
down a long hill that sloped to fiat
that the pen was built upon. When
close in upon any portion OF the flock
he could not see over them, and would
scamper back up the hill and locate the
position of the pen, and then flank his
sheep according to his bearings. When
the last sheep and frisky lamb was IL
side, he would sit down at the gate and
slap the dust with his tail until the
shepherd commenced putting up tAs
poles that formed the gate, and L have
seen him attempt to assist in that work
by trying to drag the poles 20 the gaze.
At night he would keep tho sheep IL
the pen, which consisted of brush' or
if they broke out would promptly put
them back. 1 have herded those sheep
myself, and slept in a small tent lev
yards from the pen. In case OF tue
moon rising full, the she appeared 70
take il for sunrise and would break out.
The first tine il occurred during DICE $
administration Dick put his paws uI on
ny breast and licked my face and WOKE
me. 1 said, $50 for EN-, Dickl' and ne
did it and put the lost sheep back In the
pen, and then came and tried to tell
ne that all was right. After thst nlshi

Growth of Farming in the United States

Growth of Farming In the United States
A census bulletin just issued shows
that the number of farms in the United
States has increased from 100000 in
1870 to 100000 in 1880, at the rate
of 81 per cent. Compared with the
increase of population, which was about
3O,per cent. during the same period,
the agricultural development of the
past ten years proves to have been rap
il and extensive. The most striking
increase in the number of farms has
taken place in the south and the north:
western and Pacific states. The in
crease is shown to be 1C2 per cent. III
Alabama, 81 in Arkansas, l29 IN Florl-
da. 90 in Georgia, 70 in Louisiana, 30
Mississippi, 6S in North Carolina, 81 in
South Carolina, 60 in Virginia and $50
in Texas. These figures are at once
significant and encouraging. They IN
dictate the social and industrial change
that has taken place in the south slnce
the war and show the extent to which
its once greatplantations have been cut
ND into small farms. In Iowa there
has been an increase of SO per cent. in
the number of farms; in Minnesota 80,
in Nebraska 415, in Oregon ia and ID
California 81. The greatest multlphca-
lion mas taken place in the territories
the rate of increase ranging from TS

paws. He had but little tuition. but he
guarded that sheep pen as we'll as
though he was years Of age instead OF
ive months. If he had been guilty of
any misbehavior for which he knew he
deserved punishment. he would rush of
and round up his flock OF sheep as
though he wished TO show some work to
atone for his misconduct. He had
