They Don, Bury Their Dog. rhe,s.

A letter recently received from af. American missionary in Central Africa reveals curious bit of superstition or the part of the natives in regard to the bnrying of dogs The letter says: .'The King of Bihe made great disturbance because Nr. Arnot. a Scotch mission ary buried in the ground a dog which he had been obliged to sill. The chief sent word that this was crime. and that the missionary must take up the body and throw it into the river After this he must kill chicken and sprinkle its blood upon the ground where thr dog had been buried
 Now. it was not deemed best to anger the king by refusing to do as be commanded. SO Mr. Arnot took up the body of the dog and threw it into the river and paid fine All they can pay with Is cotton cloth, and of this Mir. Arnot had to pay forty yards. But he did mol sprinkle the blood of the chicken on the ground, because that would look like paying homage to the spirits However. there was an old native who felt that this must be done in order to avert evil consequences. SO he killed the chicken and went through the ceremony n--New York Tribune.

A Ci,, of P.,s.l,..

Ever since the Crinlean wsr many Of the populous thoroughfares of Odessa have been undermined. In 1884 a law was framed by the municipal council ldoonial. making if obligatory upon every landlord to iii up the mine which opens from his premises Rnt obedi ence to that law was never insisted upon. and the house owners ignored its existence. Of late several accidents have occurred where the ground on the streets and sidewalks caved in and fell into the mines. The municipal council contemplated the enforcement of the law. but the house owners pre- sented a petition against this measure on rhe plea that thc mines are used as cellars for the storage of goods. and if they should be filled up their proper ties would S,.teriorate in value
 Hereupon the city council adopted a resolution obliging the landlords to line the mines which open into their houses with cemenied walls so that the ground above them should not cave in. In eases where this cannot be done the mines must be filled up. The landlord who fails to do one thing or the other wiil be responsible for ail accidents that may be caused by bis negligence, and be liable to an administrative fine" for diSobedience, The board of city archi. tects. moreover. drew up plan of all the mines in the city. marking those which can be made secure and those which must be closed --Exchange.

 A. most af our readers know. there Is plenty of land in New Hampshire that is iust as wild now as it was when Hud- son iirst looked on the ground where the Statue of Liberty now stands There was a deal of it in Sullivan county perhaps not the widest in the state, but certainly a plenty of nnbroken forest that ooverei hllls and valleys and surrounded little lakes-forests of birch and beech and maple and pine and spruce and hesnlosk and balsasn; for esss beautiful and fragrant enough to give a city man the heartache when he thinks of them. Mr corbsn detsrs mined to bay from a0.00o to So.ooo acres of the~e hills and valleys and there establish park for his new found four footed friends in which they would find the conditions as near as possible to which they were best suited.
 Everybody knows that New Hsmp- shire farms ln the back coantry wiii not bring the price of the buildings at orii- nary sale, but Mr. Corbin could not buy ali that land without people learn Ing that much land was wanted Thereat pr:ces rose amazingly. and soil that wouldn't raise oats brought the prices of truck farms in Jerry. IL takes stack of money to buy game park where s00 different people hold the titles to the tracts. Still. the location was suitable for the purpose. and more over, there was the old hosne. Mr, Corbin had to have 1t at any price. and he eventually got 2s. .ooO acres in one tract.
 The next thing was to fence It. and only those who have tried building elk tight fences can appreciate the lob. Hsee was tract cf over thirty five square miles of land 10 incIose. They started out with wire net six feet high. secured 10 stout posts ten feet apart. Above the net they strung ten lines of barbed wire. and that made right good fence. But when eighteen miles had been erected they abandoned the net and used harbed wire only for the rest of the way. That was cheaper and just as good IL Is not uninterest ing to note that the fencing cost s74.- O00.
 In all nine gates are placed in this fence. with keepers lodge at each gate. something made necessary by the presence in every community of the skulking loat who vii! steal or destroy the property of the well to do. and es peciaily such property as this fence will l .ineiose. Mr Corbiu is sure his park l will not in any way interfere with the 1 rights of legitimate sportsmen.
 Here in this tract of woodland. with | only enough cleared land on 1t to af | ford meadows over which the animals | would like to wander at times. are gathered twenty five buffalo, sixty elk. 1 over seventy deer. half . dozen each of | caribou and antelope. eighteen wild | boars imported from Germany and an unknown number of moose. perhaps dozen He had four reindeer brought 1 from Labrador. but all died. He ex- poets to have a community of beavers. for the lakes and streams of the park are admirably adapted for these beau tifui animals. Forest and Stream

A Coed Building Brick.

The Big Stone Brick Co, Of Big Stone
City, has been turning out some very
fine brick this year. The product OF the
kilns already burned by this compa-
ny is OF a quality that will stand CON-
parison with any brick that reaches this
market and is the equal in durability
aud hardness of the best Of the we'll
known Chaska brick, and superior to a
good deal that is shipped into this coun-
try under the name OF the best Chaska
manufacture. The yards at Big Stone
contain an abundant supply Of the finest
clay and eand for the manufacture OF Tho
very bcst brick, and the dem nd upon
the company for their product MS its ex-
ceilence becomes known has prompted
the company to increase their facilities,
and next season they will largely add 10
their working capacity by putting in
steam presses and the latest improved
machinery for supplying the constantly
increasing demand Tor Big Stone brick.
Parties desirous Of securing good brick
Tor building purpo -es will do well to
correspond with F. j. HAITI, of Big Stone
City, who is manager of this company.

The FaIr..Scpt 24, 2j and 26.

Until the last few days the general in
difference exhibited in the matter Of hold
ing county fair this year by those who
should have taken an interest in the
subject, seemed to leave it a serious
question whether one would be held
This season, but a canvass of the business
men and citizens shows an unlocked for
enthusiasm Tor keeping the fair up, and
il the farmers and exhibitors generally
will 10 their share there is gcod grounds
for predicting one Of the best fairs ever
held in the county. With the abundant
crop just harvested and the generally
favorable conditions grand display can
be made which will rebound to the bene-
fit Of the county at large. All that is
needed is that both farmers and citizens
take hold of the matter with common
determination to make it a success. It
has been deemed best by the managers Of
the fnlr to this year contine the list Of
premiums to a special premium list,
which will be made as complete and at
tractlve as possible, and the generous,
prompt and hearty response which the
committee has so far met with from the
cltizens OF Milbank gives assurance that
q splendid list Of special premiums willy,
be offered. The committee will call
upon those who have not yet been seen
but it they should tail to see any one de-.
sirous OF making special premium offer
he is cordially invited to hand his name
and premium offer to the president, j. II.
King, or to the secretary, w. W. Downie
One OF the attractions Of the fair this
year will be the splendid series 81 races
arranged for under the auspices of the
MIlhauk Trotiing association and for
which purses aggregating $1,000 will Le
hung up, and which will undoubtedly
attract large crowd from abroad. To
the farmers OF the county the managers
wish to urge the necessity of a fair share
OF interest on their part, and cal a,ten
,i"n to the advantages which will accrue
to the county in general from liberal
display Of the products Of the soil. In
this largely depends the success Of the
