AOUESTION RAISED.
The Commissioner of Public Land to Make
a Decision


BISMARCK, N. D., Nov. 15.-The point
was informally raised to-day by F. M.
Dudley of the land department of the
Northern Pacific railroad in the United
States land Office, that the presumption
law has been repealed by the act OF con-
gress providing for the admission OF the
new states it looks al il it was the inten-
ton to repeal the eighth section OF the act
of 1S41, as to the donation OF 500, 600
acres Of the public land Of the new states
for public Improvement, but the text in
cludes not only the repeal OF that section,
but the whole law.
The land department has not had its
attention called to it yet, hut it is certain
that the commission will be called upon for
an opinion, and if this opinion is adverse
the question will be carried into the courts.
The repeal referred to is that OF O. very
large number OF cases where the Northern
Pacific Railroad company is a party. II
the law is repealed, all presumption filings
wherein final proof has not been made. are
defeated. This necessarily involves the
rights OF every pre- -emptor who has not
proved up in the four states.

BOTANICAL BREVlTIES.

A CENTURY ago only 300 species of orchids were known, and those very imperfectly. Now the latest authority gives the extreme number of known species as 10000.
 WHEREVER the poison ivy grows, sure and simple antidote also abounds in the "deadly nightshade," or belladonna Take the leaves and bruise them in cream until a thick green paste Is formed, and apply this to the affected parts with feather; 1t af- lords instant relief; apply as often as af- fected parts become dry.
 OF the {, 200 kinds of flowers which grow in Europe only 420 or 10 per cent. are odorifer- ous. The commonest flowers are the white ones, of which there arc 1,194 kinds. Less than one-ffth of these are fragrant. Of tho 951 kinds of yellow flowers 77 are odorifer- ous of the 823 red kinds, 84; of the 564 blue kinds, 81; of the 309 violet-blue kinds, 13 Of the 240 kinds with combined colors 2S are fragrant.
 WHAT Is most commonly known as the resurrection-plant is Salaginella lepido- phylla, 8 native of Mexico. It Is not often to be found in the trade as 8 real live plant, for, being gathered in large quantities and dried of and packed away for years, there Is no possibility of it's coming to life. But, if only a month old, in its dry condition 1t will again absorb large quantity of moist ure, and in so doing it spreads out its green frond-like surfaces and appears like living plant. When again dried, 1t curls and rolls itself up ready to unroll whenever supplied with moisture.
 A LOVELY flower called the rice-lily grows thickly in parts of Southwestern Georgia. It Is extremely sensitive to the light. The blossoms fold up at night, but open in the morning. At night, while the lovely white blossoms are closely enfolded in their pur- pie covering and the flowers are asleep, if a lamp Is placed near them they will gradual ly open and turn towards 1t. If a strong light is placed on one side of the case con taining them, the half of the bouquet that faces the lamp will be unfolded, while the other half that is in the shadow will remain tightly closed.
