George Bulge, Grand Forks, was visible
about the hotel corridors yesterday. He is
one of the leading residents of Grand Forks
and yields considerable influence in terri
torial affairs. He is a self-made man, and.
coming to Dakota in an early day, has man.
aged to accumulate goodly amount of
money and real estate. His possessions in
Grand Forks are creditable, and of late he
has branched out and bought largely of
Duluth property. In case another boom
should strike either Dakota or Duluth, it is
probable that he will amuse himself cutting
off coupons from his many bonds. Politics
interest him not he devotes his time and
attention to business.

Clifford should not be returned as his own
successor. In fact, ne thought that mas
much as South Dakota was seeking admis-
sion as separate state that Clifford. a
resident of South Dakota, should be re-
burned. Mr.. Pettigrew expressed himself
as without hope in connection with the di-
vision and admission of the territory, but
thought that the residents of the territory
would be perfectly satisfied if congress
would pass an enabling act permitting the
southern half of the territory to come in in
the future. Mr.. Pettigrew formerly repre-
sented the territory in congress.

LIFE BOAT STATION ON LAKE MICHIGAN.
distinguished by numbers, from one up
ward, beginning at the more northerly.
Each district is under the immediate
charge Of a superintendent who must be a
resident thereof and familiar with the
character and peculier1ties of the strip
of coast under his charge. He
dominates the keepers of the sta
tions, makes acquisitions for supplies and
pays the crew their wages. In each dis
trict is also assigned an inspector, who is
commanding officer of the revenue cut
ter whose cruising grounds embrace the
limits of the district. The buildings oc-
cupied by the employees are, for the most
part, plain, yet picturesque, and similar
in general dimensions and arrangement,
though varying somewhat in outward de-
sign, according to location, those near
cities are popular watering places, being
in keeping with their surroundings and
presenting more finished appearance
than those on desolate beaches. Those
located in harbors or at inlets are each
provided with an annex containing a
self-righting and self .bailing life boat,
which cannot be launched from a fiat
beach on account of its great weight and
huge size, objections which are unavoida-
BILE in securing the qualities that distin
guish it. The main building has below a
boat-room and a mess room which are
provided with convenient lockers and
closets, and above two sleeping rooms
and store room. The boat-room con-
tains the surf-boat which is used on fiat
beaches and in shoal water. 1t is
mounted on light carriage which may
be hauled by the crew when
horses are unavailable. In the same room
is also the mortar cart loaded with the
wreck ordinance, lines and various apa-
ratus, while properly bestowed through
out the apartment are various articles,
most of which come in use in the opera
lions to be described. the kitchen and
sleeping rooms are provided with only
necessary furniture while the store rooms
are provided with medicines, provisions,
cordage and other articles. The keeper
and crew live during the active season in

been made since its introduction, it is
now the means of saving large numbers
of people. 1t is about two hundred
pounds heavier than the breeches bouy,
but to make up for this difference, in
handling, it has capacity for five or six
adults and has carried as many as nine
half-hrown children at a single trip. 1t
is made of galvanized iron and has much
the appearance of a covered boat, and is
connected with the hawser, by single
device, in such manner as to permit it
to float upon the water, while preventing
it from drifting in strong currents too
far from the direct course of the hauling
lines The apparatus is practically water
tight but provided with means for sup
plying air, is passengers are landed in
the same condition in which they en-
barked. The occasions for its use have
been numerous, and in the first notable
instance, the wreck of the AYRSHIRE, an
emigrant ship off the coast of New
Jersey, two hundred and one per-
sons were rescued by its use when
other means could not have
availed. Silks; jewelry and other val
liable goods have often been saved by its
use, and from one vessel the car took
ashore thousands of dollars worth of gold
bullion belonging to the United States,
and the mails have been saved repeatedly,
We have described how the work is done,
but the perils that are undergone, the ex
ploits of the brave crews and the many
deeds of daring that are of almost daily
occurrence cannot be chrOnicled. here for
they would fill volume. But the life of
the surfmen is not all one round of hard
ship; they have their moments of leisure.
One of their favorite occupations during
this time is rehearsing stories in which
they were actors. The faculty of sailor
for telling entertaining yarns is proverb
ial and those employed at the depots are
no exception to the rule. Sometimes in
cold weather when the surfmen have to go
inland, his route lies across deep sloughs
and creeks for two or three miles. He ar
rays himself in one of the Boyden suits
and once dressed, the one in question
looked like some amphIbious monster, and
as he plunged in the mud, sometimes on
land and the next moment in water, the
illusion was heightened. He met ON his
wa to his destination two snipe shooters
gazing at him in undisguised astonish-
hent, and tells his experience thus:
II seen they was nightly skeered," said
he, ''and took me for the devil or some
other sea varmint, so beginned to cut up
and prance round like yearling calf an
a screeching all the time as loud as l could
holJer, an ye'd jest orter seen them fellows
scoot fur the ced9rs, 1 guess they's run
ming yit." To doubling Thomas who
asks, "But whag was the guns nil the
timer He replied, "Pshaw them fellers
never knowed they had no guns" The
hunters version never reached the beach,
but it may be easily imagined. Thus they
beguile their leisure time, but when serious
work is to be done there is no Sinking
duty, and each man is ready and willing
to do his duty. Drawer hearts never beat
than those in the breast of the rough
beachmen.

Every week or two the daily papers con-
tain, under thG head of Marine Intelli-
gence," a paragraph to the effect that
some vessel has been wrecked or stranded
on the coast, and few short lines stating
that the crew and many of the valuables
were taken off by one of the crews of the
Life Saving Service. The few who read
between the lines are aware of the ro-
nance that may be concealed behind the
brief report; but the many pass it by and
do not give a second thought to the dan
gers encountered and surmounted by the
gallant men who keep the lonely vigils
along the rock ribbed coasts of our
oceans and lakes. The service, in its
present almost complete state, is of com
parative recent origin, though the first
steps taken for it's establishment were as
far back as 1847, when congress made
an appropriation of $4,000 'for
furnishing the light houses on
the Atlantic coast with means of render
ing assistance to shipwrecked mariners"
An extemporized service was already Or
ganized, but so poor was its marage
ment that this sum lay in the treasury
two years before it was utilized. After a
time the money was used in erecting a
few rude huts on the New England coast,
and this formed the nucleus around which
the life saving service was developed.
These contained boats and other appli,
ances as were then known, but no crews
were stationed at them--volunteers from
among the fishermen being relied on to
use them when occasion offered.
And right CALAMITY, in many in
stances, did the brave beachmen
respond. though their undertakings and
deeds remain mostly unrecorded, existing

ganization was striking. The record of
the season on the two coast shows that
every person imperiled by shipwreck was
saved. Fatal disasters, hitherto occurring
often, appeared to have ceased, and the
service was gradually extended along the
southern coast of the Atlantic, on the
coasts of the great lakes and on the Pa
cific. Still it took years to bring the SER
vice to anything like completeness, and it
was only the occurrence of two more dis
asters on the North Carolina coast that
made congress again turn its attention to
the subject. Every inch that was gained
by the promoters of the service had to be
stubbornly fought for; the members in
the interior not seeing its usefulness like
those residing on or near the coast. But
while they would read of the fearful loss
of life on portions of the coast where
there were yet no stations,
and then of hundreds of lives
saved and millions worth of property on
coasts where they were. At last the les
son was learned and in recognition of the
work of the bureau congress passed an
act formally organizing the service into a
distinct bureau of the treasury depart
ment, and the president nominated Mr..
S. l. Kimball, general superintendent.
Thus it was not before 1868 that the first
life saving service was recognized as one
of the institutions of the government.
There are now upon the sea and lake
coasts of the United States nearly two
hundred life saving stations, the greater
number being established at the more
dangerous and exposed points. The plan
of organization of the service is simple
but effective. The coast line of the coun-
try is divided into twelve districts, there
being eight on the Atlantic; three on the
great lakes, and only one on the calm Pa
cifc. In each of these the stations are

Thus it will be seen that by an expendi-

many lives were pres rved and property
to the amount of over three millions
saved. These figures speak for them
selves and no other argument need be
brought forward by the supporters of the
service to show of what incalculable good
it has been to the shipping interests of
America and the worl6.

THE WIFE's SHARE.-No class of men arc
more indebted to their wives for success thai
comes to them than are farmers. The wife
and the mother who has the courage to GO
out with the husband of her choice and
commence the struggle Of life with him on
the prairie, or on new farm, with but lit
tie capital, except that boundless capital of
head and heart, is worthy to stand by the
side Of the Spartan woman of whom poets
have exhausted their words of praise. Up
on her falls the brunt of the strife, no mat
ter how hard the husband may toll his
work closes with the day, but hers contin-
ues after and, with her children, and the
small chores that many of the beginners
look after, her lot is not one to be envied.
And when, after years of struggle, success,
with reluctant feet, comes to crown the hus-
band with honor, the brightest wreath
should adorn the brow of the noble wife,
who was the stay and anchor, the comfort
and the source of all hope in the stormy
days of trial. The wealth should crown
her queen.
We hear much Of the man. We hear
that so-and-so is making money, and he gets
the credit of being forehan ded man, but
