''He has written two plays. and one of them has
been produced In private with some success. It

A Cause Of Typhoid Fever.

The theory that the emanatiOns from OBJ
structed foul drains conveying decaying vege-
table matter or human excrete is provocative of
typhoid diseases. appears to accumulate testi-
mOny; and therefore that these drains should
always be kept free and occasionally washed or
'fushed" would seem to follow. The sanitary
superintendent to the board of health OF New
York city has recently reported that an increase
of typhoid cases might be expected, one Of the
reasons for the report being the restricted sup
ply OF the CrOtOn water for cleansing purposes.
The gist Of the report on this subject is the re-
qulrement OF an abundance of clean water for
flushing all water closets, soil pipes and drains
DR.. John G. Peters SAYS that typhoid fever is
caused largely by broken, overfilled, or other
wise detective drains. the latter of which are
common in the country, and there typhoid fever
Is more common, In proportion to the number
OF inhabitants, in small towns and villages, and
even isolated farm houses, than in large, well
severed cities with an abundant water supply.
Typhoid fever is largely imported into cities
every fall by visitors returning from sO-called
health resorts and summer boarding houses,
but it generally dies out in the city.
Getting ON the Police
"Well, my man." said philanthropist to a
Misunderstanding chap confined in the Paisley
prison, what are We in for?''
'rm in for thirty days, 1 reckon" said the
prisoner, sullenly.
mo, not that; what ofense did you COM
mit7"
Didn't commit anything. The judge COM
'Weil, you must have been accused Of some
crime7"
30 yes, was accused of trying to get on the
police"
Nonsense! Trying to get on the police is no
crlme l have myself recommended several
men 1or positions in the police force"
"It Is a fact. That was all was sent here
for. You see there were two of us. and we
both tried to get on the same policeman. We
had him down, but some of the other peelers
thought we were crowding the man too hard.
and" .
THAT will do, sir" said the philanthropist.
II understand your case perfectly. Here are q
few pamphlets and copy of Scottish Blue Bells
for the Improvement of your mind, which ap-
pears to be q little warned"

BERLIN, Jan. 12.-Emperor William, at

Bismarck tribune., 1883-07-20

The "Royal Route to Chicago from
st. Paul is always to the front and to
General Passenger Agent Teasdale be-
longs lions share of the credit. Last
Monday elegant new dining cars were
put on, which, coupled with the palatial
drawing room cars and sleepers, makes
this route really a most royal one to
travel on. Last evening the TRIBUNE
received specimen copy of the bill Of
fare on the Royal Route. To read it is
simply an aggravation, and inspires one
with an almost uncomfortable desire to
travel, if for no other reason than to lux
uriate on the Royal Route. The elegance
of the new dining cars in question is only
equalled by those now being run by the
North Pacific, the route over whose pas
senger department G. K. Barnes is
pleased to preside.
Bismarck tribune., 1883-07-20

there are spots that will not be harvested H g
at all They are but few acres e . IN ex-- -
tent and in no instances do they cover
entire farms, and generally result from
shallow plowing.
One of the first lessons learned in
farming by the writer was the import
ance Of deep plowing. Itwas q maxim,
in the country where be learned to hold
the plow, that one must plow deep to find
the gold. He remembers well a piece Of
ground plowed and sown as he was
taught to plow and SOW, that yielded
sixty bushels of oats to the acre, while
another piece, almost adjoining, equally
good, put in by hired help on shallow
plowing, yielded but Is bushels per acre.
In seasons of drouth deep plowing forms
a reservoir which holds moisture, besides
the earth being loosened draws moisture
from the atmosphere. Shallow plowing
holds the moisture near the surface, and
scalds the crop in hot weather, evapor-
ates the moisture quickly, and leaves the
crop to perish in case of drouth. On the
rolling landslof the Missouri river country
there is absolutely no danger of loss OF
crops from drouth or excessive rains with
common sense farming.

Hard ON Burglars

Pecks Sum-. E.;
It is getting so that even burglars are seri-
ously interfered with in the practice of their
professions A recent invention is connected
with safe, and is so arranged that when the
burglar touches the safe an electric light is
thrown upon the face of the burglar, and a
prepared plate inside the safe door transfers
the mans picture, so he can be identified. If
this thing keeps on poor burglar will have 70
send an agent to burgle for him, or he will
pet into trouble. The life of a burglar is be-
coming full of terrors Not long ago woman
made the burglar stay to lunch, and listen to .
lecture on the wickedness of his profession,
and recently burglar was surprised while
going through the residence of an editor, and
