The Aberdeen, South Dakota, News printed
in recent issue most complete article writ
ten by Mr.. W. P. Butler, which gave crop eta
tstics to prove that artesian wells have been
Of vast benefit to Central Dakota and Brown
county. Among other things Mr.. Butler says:
"Wells have been sunk from Jamestown to
Yankton, and from Andover to Ipswich, and in
every case wherever we'll has been sunk wa
ter has been found at certain level and the
strata through which the drills passed have
been very uniform, so that the element OF
chance in putting them down has been reduc-
ed to point of almost absolute certainty, and
with the elimination Of this element there has
been corresponding redut ton of cost, which
reduction has not yet reached its minimum.
A we'll with diameter Of four aud half
inches at the bottom will throw over
5000 gallons Of water minute, or 4,S21, 900
per day, at which rate 1t would require 4S days
to food the entire section to the depth Of ono
foot; or, in other words, the flow Of ~ inch
well for one day each week will supply all the
water necessary for the irrigation Of whole
section" Mr.. Butler says the cost Of 5-inch
well, with valves, etc., complete, would be
about $4,000, and he is said to be gentleman
who knows whereof 10 IL speaking.

Artesinn Wells.

At the meeting Of the Farmers alliance held
at Shorbrooke on Tuesday, the following reso-
lutions were adopted:
Whereas, experience has demonstrated that
the lack OF sufficient supply Of moisture has
and in some sections has resulted in total
failure, aud that there seems TO be 0n increas-
ing tendency in this direction; and,
Whereas, the sinking Of artesian wells in
various portions OF Dakota affords satisfactory
evidence Of the existence Of vast reservoirs, or
soil, which may be utilized by the construction
OF such wells to flood present and open new
water courses; to create reservoirs, and to ir.
rigate large quantities Of agricultural LANDS;
and
Whereas, It is believed that such an increase
Of surface water will exert beneficial effect
upon rain and snow falls, and thus afford as.
agricultural needs; and
Whereas, it is deemed proper that public at
tentiOn should be turned to the subject of arte.
sian wells as a remedy for the evils suffered
by lack Of rain supply, with a view not mere
ly TO county but to state and national assis-
tance in meeting the exigencies Of the situa-
ton; therefore
Resolped, By the citizens Of Steele county in
public meeting assembled, that we respectful
ly aud earnestly invite the attention Of the
committee appointed BY tho senate Of the
United States to investigate as to arid lands, to
the nee'ls Of these northwestern prairies, aud to
the necessity Of supplementing the efforts Of
exhausted settlers with the strong hand of tho
general government.
Resolued, That the chairman of the board Of
county commissioners be, and he is hereby re-
quested to appoint committee of three citi-
Iens Of the county for the purpose OF co-opera-
ton with similar committees appointed BY 9th.
or counties In properly presenting this matter
To the Uuited States senate committee on arid
lands.
After the meeting chairman Oxton in accord
ance with the request contained in the above
resolutions, appointed B. H. Simpson, Treasur.
or K. h. Brunsdale, and Commissioner Lewis
Thompson committee to cooperate with
similar committees from other counties in
bringing the matter to tho attention Of the
senate committee.

Nels Halseth, farm hand employed on the
Beidler & Robinson farm, five miles north Of
Hope, met with serious accident, Tuesday,
while blowing. He was riding gang plow
when it struck a large stone, the shock dis
placing the lever which is used to raise and
lower the plow, and it sprung back with great
force, striking him in the scrotum, tearing
and lacerating the flesh, inflicting very pain
ful and perhaps serious wound. The unfortu-
nate man was at once brought to town and
placed under the care of DR.. Philip. The
doctor at once dressed the wound, but says It
is too early yet to say how serious it will
prove.

1t was announced from Bismarck last week
that MIR. Miller Of Richland had positively de-
clined to he a candidate for governor before
the republican state convention. This, in con-
nection with the action of Cass county, makes
it almost certain that Gen. Allen will be the
nominee, and certainly no man yet mentioned
in connection with the office will make bet-
ter governor. Speaking Of Gen. Allen the
North Dakota Republican has this to say:
''By bis manly and upright course In poll
tics, Gen. Allen has won the esteem and con.
hdence OF all who have become acquainted
with him. He has no unkind words to say Of
his rivals, treats everybody with courteous
respect and lays no claim to the nomination as
his by divine right. He is willing to make
any honorable effort to secure it, but will re-
sort to nothing mean, underhanded, or unfair
to win. North Dakota will be fortunate, in
deed, il he shall be nominated and elected
governor of the state -

CHURCH OF THE COVENANT.

The interior is beautifully and deliberately
finished. Four large pillars support seven
circular arches, which in turn support the
lantern with its domed roof The decoration
of the walls and ceiling is in plaster, the
prevailing color being of an ivory tint.
The pillars are bronzed Groups of angels
appear on the spandrils Of the lantern, and
on the front of the huge pipe organ, midway,
are two angels, one on either side and each
with trumpet raised to the lips. The figures,
which are light and graceful, are bronzed.
The windows are of stained glass, and that
on the N street side is a present from Mrs.
Martha NJ Read as memorial to her father,
Admiral Dahlgren. The pulpit and COM
munion table are neatly carved and are made
of oak, cedar and olive, got out in the log
from the Holy Land They were presented
to the church by the pastor, DR.. Hamlin.
An accident which befell the church last
i October moved the whole town to profound
regret. The immense tower, which had but
few days before been completed, crumbled
early one morning leaving only a mass of
ruins. Both the architecture and the material
were defective. Fortunately, no one was hurt.
The loss, however, which the congregation
generously shared with the contractor, was
$40, 600 The present tower is being construct
ed on similar lines, but with such care as to
insure its perfect safety
The building, when completed, will have
cost S2150O0 The seating capacity is est tt
mated at 1000.
The pastor Of the Church of the Cove
nant is the Rev. DR.. Taunis s. Hanllin. Dr.
Hamln is native of Schenectady, N Y,
and is only Al years of age. He is a young
man, indeed, to be at the head of the largest
and most prominent congregation in Wash
ington. He was educated at Union college
and Union seminary, New York city His
first charge was at Troy, where he remained
thirteen years. He was then called to Gin
cinnati, where he remained two years, and
then removed to Washington, where he has
been for nearly three years. Two years ago
he was made d. d. by his alma mater. Dr.
Hamlns success here has been remarkable.
His congregation, which was a colony from
the New York Avenue church, was small,
and then worshiped in chapel Now it
could lend the old church money and provide
it with pews free of rent in the new building.
DR.. Hamln is a handsome man. His eyes
are brown, and only few fugitive gray
hairs show at his temples and in his brown
beard. He is an impressive speaker fluent
and correct, a capable man of business with
lnack for finances, and with an address
which is at once easy and captivating He il
married and has an interesting family OF
children

This is always beset with difficulty,
and the pheasant poacher is usually a
desperate character. Many methods
can be successfully employed, for the
pheasant is rather a stupid bird. Ow-
ing to their wandering proclivity, it by
no means follows that the man who
rears the pheasants will have the priv
ilege of shooting them AT the time
of the falling of the beech and oaken
mast the poacher watches as closely by
the covert side as the keeper himself.
The former knows perfectly well that
the birds feed in the morning, that
they dust themselves in the turnip
fields at noon, and that they ramble
through the woods in the afternoon.
He, better than any one else. knows
the coppice to which the wandered
birds have gone and in Nnich
trees they will roost. Is he slow
to use his knowledge2 AT dark he
passes over the land, and lights bit
of birthstone beneath the roosting
birds. The powerful fumes soon over
power them and they come Tapping
down one by one. This method has
the advantage of silence, and if the
night be still need not be detected.
Away from the covert time is no OBJ
ject, and the poacher who is content
with brace of birds at a time usually
gets the most in the end. The poacher
knows that no bird is more pugnacious
than the pheasant, and out of this
trait he makes capital. He takes a
trained game cock under his arm, fit
ted with spurs, the latter as sharp as
needles. Upon the formers growing,
one or more cock pheasants immedi-
ately respond and advance to meet the
adversary. A single blow suflices to
lay low the pride of the pheasant, and
in this way half a dozen birds may
often be taken, while the poachers
representative remains unhurt. The
