REARED In A STREET CAR.
Three- Year.0ld Tot, the Boss Girl of
the Fulton Avenue Line.

A little girl lay cuiled up in the rear
corner of Fulton avenue car, fast
asleep. She had on Il pink apron,
with white dress underneath that
came almost down to her shoes ali
stubbed out at the toes. One of her
fat hands lay loosely beside her, while
the other wandered dreamily toward
fly that was walking up and down
her nose.
The conductor turned down the
lamp above the baby's bead, and
shoo,d away the fly. When any body
looked admiringly at the baby he
looked rs proud as though he were in
her place and when colored woman
got in and put very black baby, also
asleep, in the other corner, the con-
ductor went in and told her all about
the white baby.
"Thats my girl, u said he, "and she
won't be three years old for over a
month";
The colored woman looked surprised
as though she thought the daily must
be at least eighteen years old.
eyes," the conductor went on,
that's my girl, and she's the boss girl,
of the Fulton line. That's what all the
boys say, and she deserves it, Gentle

Using Han for Mahino Steam,

If hay can be used successfully as fuel 1t will
be saving to many parts Of Dakota. The Madi
son Leader says: "B d. Sprague, proprietor of
the Lake county mills is one OF the few Dakota
manufacturers who have made fair trial of hay
as fuel for generating steam. Several months
since Mr.. sprague determined to try the expert
ment Of utilizing this heretofore wasted resource
as a substitute for coal, and during the present
season hay is the only fuel that has entered the
furnaces of the Lake county mills. The expert
ment has proved so successful that Mr.. Spragne
has determined to use 1t indefinitely, and is now
engaged in the construction OF huge addition to
his already large hay shed. The services
of q fireman are required constantly to keep up
the required heat, but this is done by one man
with perfect ease, the hay being pitched into the
arches with an ordinary hay fork. The fire is
steady and even one, and steam can be made
faster than with almost any other fuel. -

Rafse Horses. Cattle and Hoas

The Jametown capital draws this sensible
moral from the low wheat rates: 1.-THE lessons
Of the past and the present should teach the
north Dakota farmer that diversified interests
are essential to permanent success. With the
magnificent crops grown this year has come
more than corresponding low prices and the
farmer who has watched his broad acres Of the
best wheat in the world grow and ripen for the
sickle il now faced with the ominous threat Of a
low market and Improbable sales. Dakota is
no longer dependent upon grain for profitable
use OF her fertile acres Anything that will
grow in any Of the northern states thrives in Da-
kota, and in the growing Of stock there is now
no place in the world which offers better adyan-
tuges. The length Of the winter season here is
no argument Whatever against stock growing.
The abundance Of nutritious grasses which can
be cheaply secured is abundant compensation for
the long winter. There is no reason why Dakota
should not become az great az q pork prodnc-
ing country as she now is grain growing state,
and why such places as jamestown should not
have vast packing establishments.

A Passenger Rate Var That Benefits No
One Except the Scalpers.
TChicago Tribune 26th

The manner in which the general passenger
agents OF the roads running east from this city
carry on their passenger shows that in no
branch OF railway service is reform so necessary
as in passenger affairs. serious conflict has
been in progress since August /, when the east
bound passenger pool went out of existence, and
matters are continually growing worse. Tickets
are now being openly sold all the lines at
the various scalping offices for S15 and less while
at the regular ticket Offices of the roads the full
$40 rate is charged. Thus people are compelled
to go to scalping Offices il they wish to take
advantage of the rate war that is going on
AS the scapers could not sell tickets al a reduc-
ton of s. uniess the railroads furnished them
tickets at such low rate as to enable them to
make such cut, it is fair to presume that the
railroads do not get more than about ST. from the
scalpers for each fare from Chicago to New York
Yet the public is compelled to pay $40 at the reg
ular ticket offices. The passenger officials ad-
nit that this is disgracefu state of affairs, and
the benefit of the reduction should be given direct
to the public. Yet no one road has the courage
to take the initiative and commence to sell tickets
at its regular offices at the rate they are
sold by the scalpers being afraid that such action
would bring upon it the vengeance Of the
scalpers.
