the part OF the military authorities to

Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1891-10-29

1t is reported that Senator Hans
brough has the following scheme for
the benefit of the state:
Iii early days Minnesota senators Sc
cured from the governments a grant of
all that part of the public domain with
in her borders which had been reported
in the official survey as swamp lands or
bad lands. At the time this land was
ceded to the state it was largely value
less. But in later years much of it has
been drained, and on some of it miner
raj of valuable quality and in paying
quantities have been discovered
grant to the state being now worth sew
eral millions of dollars. Senator Hans
brough will, this winter, bring the mat
ter before congress and introduce a bill
to cede all these swamp and arid lands
in North Dakota to the state. It is a
matter involving at present fully $1O,-
000, 700 to the state, and if successfully
carried through may prove sometime of
untold wealth to North Dakota. There
are many people who believe that the
famous Bad Land on our western bor-
der are full of valuable metals and as
future Investigations may prove this to
be true, Senator Hansbrough's effort to
secure titles to them in the state is
shrewd and timely.

years ago. 1t was all arranged for the
pope to leave for some haven Of refuge.
At the last moment, however, the pope
abandoned the scheme.
But the circumstance which led to a
discussion of the abandonment of Rome
two years ago has become more imper-
atiye with time. There is no telling at
what instant the mob may storm the
vatican, assassinate the pope, and des-
ecrate the papal possessions

One Tuesday next week the
Australian election law will be given
its first trial in this county, in the
election Of commissioners in the
Third, Foulth and Fifth districts.
There will not be any great induce
ment to vote in the fourth and fifth
districts, but it would be a good
plan to get acquainted with the
form before the general election
next year. In the third district
there promises to be lively fight.
Mr.. Weir, the democratic candidate,
is quite popular with all parties and
will receive many independent and
republican votes, besides the united
support Of his own party. Mr.. Weir
is successful farmer and broad
guaged, liberal-minded gentleman,
who, if elected, will make good
commissioner and take good care Of
the interests of his constituents and
the county at large.

accepted the position Of Indian
commissioner at Fort Totten. This

that Mr.. Bidlake was rendered the
appointment which he promptly de-
clined with thanks. Mr.. Bidlake

a CURIOUS BIT OF HISTORY.
why the joy ellers' Dummy Clocks Point
to the Hour 3. 16.


There are great many curious
things In the world that are common
property. They are noticed and COM
mented upon by everybody because
the objects are pointed out and all one
has to do is to look in the direction
indicated by the index fingers of some
one who has gone before, and 10! the
oddity is apparent But there are
myriads Of people who pass unusual
and interesting things every day of
their lives without knowing it It re-
mains for the observant to discover
them and make them known. Then
the general public wonders why it new
er before noticed them.
There are few who have not seen the
ordinary sign of a jeweller-an inn
mense imitation of watch hanging
over the front of the store.
But it is safe to say that the number
who have ever detected anything curl
GUS in these same signs is very, very
small. The reader may ask at once,
''Well, what is there remarkable in
them? I have passed them scores of
times, and know of nothing strange
IN their construction"
Not to keep the inquirer in sus-
pense, says the N. Y. World, the won
derful feature OF these big timepieces
that don't go is that on almost every
one of them the time indicated is
eighteen minutes past eight o'clock.
And theryby hangs a tale.
On the 14th of April, 1865, at this
hour, Abraham Lincoln was assassin
ated in Ford's Theatre, at Washing
ton, by John Wilkes Booth. Since
that fatal night every one of these
watch-signs has shown the hour of
8:18.
Mr.. Washburne tells this story Of
how the first Lincoln signs' came to
be painted:
When I first began to make these
clocks fixed the hands in any way
that my fancy dictated some at one
time and some at another. The first
watch-sign was forP. T. Barnum's old
store on Cortlandt street. which was
then the jerome clock company and
which has long since passed out of exist
ence. I don't know how the hands were
on it. and. as I have said, never cared
until the night of April IA. 1865. I
was then working on sign for
Jeweller Adams, who kept store on
Broadway, across the street from
Stewards, He came running in while
! was at work and told me the news.
Paint those hands at the hour
Lincoln was shot that the deed may
never be forgotten he said, pointing
to the sign | was making for him. T
did SO. Since then every watch sign
that has gone out of here has been
lettered the same as that one. I
noticed at the time that it was a good
place for the hands anyway, leaving
the top and bottom of the dial open
for lettering, and this is probably the
reason why it has been generally
adopted.

THE FARMERS WIFE.
Tho Dresry, Monotonous Tread Mill
Round Is Her Fate.

Tho Dresry, Monotonous Tread Mill
Round Is Her Fate.
Every day of her life she goes
through the dreary, monotonous round.
At an early hour, every morning
through the hot summer, she prepares
the same black coffee and fried pork
(perhaps hot biscuits), and before she.
can clear away the breakfast things
and make the bed she hears the calves
bleating, the milk-cow stamping, both
impatient to have the mornings busi-
ness done with. Then comes the
dreary routine of the forenoon's work,
the baking of bread, the washing, and
the like, until the meridian sun warns
her that the everlasting midday meal
Is due and must be ready at once. To
round up the duties and responsibili-
ties of the day her labors are carried
far into the night and often, very
often. they continue long after those
of the male portion have ended. She
has long since ceased to think about
her personal appearance. A tender
kiss from her husband would almost
surprise her. Once she grieved that
her little girls were so barely clad;
now, she scarcely thinks Of it. That
she should have spare hour every
day to read never enters her head and
the bare suggestion that on every Sum
day she should dress upH and devote
herself. during the rest of the day to
social intercourse would cause stare
Of increduiity. For be it understood
that Sunday for the farmers wife is at
sort Of clearance day to adjust odds;
and ends Of the previous weeks cares
and labors, to be in readiness for the
renewed labors Of the coming week.

The people Of Easily would like
to know what action the railroad
commissioners have taken in regard
to the side track petitioned for last
summer. While here last summer
they promised to give the matter
due consideration when they had
completed their tour of the state,
but as yet no intimation has been
received that they had taken any
action in the matter, which would
lead us to believe that the petition
has been pigeonholed indefinitely.
