The EiHsl Tower.

A recent letter from Paris regarding the
construction Of the 1000 foot Eiffel tower
Of the exposition Of 1889, says: It has
reached nearly four hundred feet, and 10
going up at the rate Of more than six feet
per day. Therefore, the completion may
be looked for within the next 100 days. Il
may be that M. Eiffel will slacken work,
however, and not finish it SO soon. In
deed, he is apparently doing SO even now,
for he has discharged workmen by the
hundred, until now scarcely more than 200
remain.
The ..frst story as it is called, is fin
ished as far as possible, considering that
it has to be used as a workshop for the
rest of the job. 1t is something more
than 200 feet high, and will be used for
concert halls, ball rooms, cafes, and per-
haps theater. There is a stairway of 345
steps running up through it to the second
story. But there the stair stops, and
those who wish to go further up must pat
ronize the lift, or elevator we suppose it
should be called, since it is to be made and
put in by an American firm. The second
story or section of the tower is some IT'S
feet high. and from the top of it one may
overlook everything in Paris, far above the
Pantheon, the Invalides and Notre Dame.
The view from the summit of the COM
pleted structure will be simply bewiider-
ing. All the great buildings and monu-
ments of the city will appear dwarfed.
Even the big exposition buildings at the
foot of the tower will seem petty.

ured by their dividends. tax with propriety
might be adjusted to some of the interests
above named on the principle OF gross earnings
Personal property belonging to non-residents
should be listed for taxation in the tax precinct
where the property is located While some Of
the interests !asoye named pay their just pro-
portion, others pay only q portion OF what they
should pay and others pay none at all. Bank
stock is assessed under chapter 140. laws of 1887
A system of taxation that would eventually
lead to exemption of real estate from territorial
or state taxation would be very desirable, nd
could largely il not entirely be accomplished
by the. territorial tax being collected from a
class of property corporate and personal in ita
nature. 1 would also suggest the propriety of
allowing taxes to be paid aemi-annually, espec-
tally on real estate, allowing rebate to those
who pay the full amount OF tax at the time the
first payment is due.
In 1873 the erri orial Legislature passed an
act providing. among other things. for the tax
ing OF railroads under the gross earnings sys-
tenn. In 1888 the legislature passed another act
providing for the collection Of taxes on railroad
property. 1t is TO be observed in 1879 there
were but few miles Of railroad in the territory.
while at present there are nearly 1900 miles.
AS the law stood prior to 1885, it Ia plain that
the Legislature did not intend to exempt from
the ordinary and usual method of taxation only
such property as was actually used in or neces-
sarily incident to the operation of the roads.

How TO Make a Simple Toy.

How do you keep that butterfly iutter-
ing around that rose?"
very easily, when you know how, was
the reply made to the inquiry of a reporter
for the New York Mail and cypress. You
see this is an imitation rose and an imita-
ton butterfly. The rose is made of paper
and the stem is metallic tube. This tube
extends slightly beyond the petals of the
flower. The other end of il is fattened
like the mouthpiece of pipe so that it can
be easily held in the mouth. Two small
butterflies are fastened to a small elder
pith ball by means of very fine wire. By
placing the ball directly over the tube and
gently blowing through the tube the ball is
suspended in the air and the butterflies
have the appearance of fiuttering round the
rose. The effect produced is very surpris-
ing. OF course the air must be blown
through very regularly. This is on the
same principle that makes an egg shell or
a light cork ball remain in equilibrium at
the top of a jet of water.

She Laid Out the Wildcats.

On farm ten miles west of Mandan
lives Charles Casperdone with his family,
consisting of his wife and two little boys.
On Saturday Mr.. Casperdone came to
Mandan TO see some stock and remained
there visiting friends. Sunday at mid
night the Casperdone henroost was visited
by wildcats. When the wife heard the
noise she bounded out of bed, grasped an
axe and sailed forth in scant attire. Rush
ing in at the door of the hennery she en-
countered wildcat, which sprang at her,
catching one of its claws in her left arm
decorating 1t terribly. Pushing the animal
away she struck it blow that rendered it
unconscious. Another of the cats sprang
at her, Selling the calf of her right leg,
and cutting it severely with its teeth. The
poor woman aimed blow at the beast,
which missed it, but the animal became
frightened and ran to the woods The
third cat which had been crouching in the
corner meditating whether to run or fight,
then sprang upon the plucky little house
wife, getting its teeth tangled in her cloth
ing and tearing them almost from her
body. She succeeded in pushing the in
furiated animal away from her, and as it
sprang mt her throat the second time she
dealt it blow on the right ear which end
ed its career. Mrs. Casperdone was SO
overcome that she fell in faint and was
carried into the house by neighbor who
had been summoned by one of the boys.
She is still in bed and suffering from her
wounds, but will recover unless blood
poisoning sets in

bright Crop Outlook.

The farmers of Bookings county are
generally looking forward to an unusually
good crop this year, it being the universal
opinion of the old settlers that good crop
in that county has always followed dry,
open winter. Many of the farmers in
Kingsbury county who lost their crop last
year by hail plowed the ground immedi-
ately afterwards, and as there has not been
rain enough since to sprout the grain
plowed under, they think it will be sum
oient for seed. As an indication of better
times, number of real estate loans are
being made In that county at Per cent

Judge Moody Despairs.

A Washington special of very recent
date says: Senator Moody was at the CAPT
toll to-day trying to find out how he can
help the admission bills, but found the
house SO energetically engaged in wasting
time that cold, gray despair began to
settle over him as he listened to roll call
after roll call and calls of the house that
are daily delaying appropriation bills aud
necessary legislation, in the interest OF
the Oklahoma bill. Senator Moody got
so far into the spirit of the situation to-
day that he said to- night: "The leaders in
the democratic part of the house are too
far apart on the subject. They can not
agree. II they could come to an. under
standing as to Dakota's fitness for state
hood there would be renewal of the old
trouble on the question of division. OF
course it is possible that this congress may
do something for us, but it seems to me to
be rather impossible just now" He thinks
there will be an extra session.

Winchell, the Sphinx county defaulting
treasurer, ten of them paying $s,000, the
county having recourse against any of
WinchelPs personal credits and against
three bondsmen who refused to settle for
the balance. The action of the county
commissioners in compromising with De-
faulter Winchells bondsmen is sharply
criticised by many. 1t is claimed that
they had no right to accept any such

Reported restitution Denied.

The commissioners of Walsh county,
now in session, strongly condemn the sem
sational accounts of restitution west of
Park river. They desire the fullest pub
licity given to the fact that no complaints
have been made to them and that they do
not know of any such suffering. The
chairman of the board is a near neighbor
of the Mr.. Richis who started this report,
yet nothing was said to him about it, nor
any help asked. The county has good
poor farm ana poor house. which stan>:s
empty of inmates, and any applications
for outside relief have been promptly sup
piled. There is no county in Dakota in
better financial condition than Walsh
county, and it is able and willing to take
