The Cause of Scarcity of Coal,
From Tuesdays Daily

From Tuesdays Daily
r. M. futile: OF course YOU folks
here know it all, but your coal men are
a little off IN the question of the cause
of coal shortage. I say it is lack of men
to do the mining, and not a lack of cars.
The railroad people tell me, and the
miners don't deny the statement, that
for the past two or three weeks there
have been plenty of cars supplied. I
was talking to-day with the Rev. o. j.
Norby of Sims, and he tells me that
seven or eight cars a day are being ship
ped from Sims by the three mines, and
that they are all away behind with their
orders. One trouble is that in Mandan,
where half the demand has IN other
years been supplied by the farmers, this
year the farmers are not bringing in a
pound. In other years the New Salem
mine have been worked by farmers,
who have traded coal to their storekeeper
for merchandise, but this year the New
Salem farmers don't mine enough for
their WI use. The Mandan citizens
who usually burn New Salem coal, have
not got an ounce of it this year. The
Sims people, too, have been called on to
supply Hebron, as we'll as New Salem
with coal-something never known be-
fore. Our farmers don't have to dig coal
this winter, and they don't do it except
for their own use, and then only when it
is easier to dig than to go to the railroad
and haul it. I understand that Senator
McGillivray expects to get his Dickinson
mine started up soon, and when he does
he will get some of the business that just
now seems to be going around begging.
I might remark, incidentally 4 that any
man who wants an all winter'4 job can
get it at Sims, and make from So to SO
a day.

The Deadly Parallel,

The Bismarck TRIBUNE boldly asserts
that the price paid for wheat there "is
equal to and above that paid at jamestown
and other points further east" The state
ment was probably intended for home
reading only.
The above from the jamestown Alert
Of Friday. The following are the official
quotations taken that day:

The TR1BUNE's quotations were official
and the same degree of confidence
is placed in the Alert's figures.

In southern Arizona and northern Mexi-
co there grows a plant from which rope
and Irvine that will almost never wear out
can be made 1t is the mescal plant They
are like cabbages, and on large stalk that
grows up alongside the head are long
stemmed leaves with sharp, hard pointed
ends The soft part of the leaf can be re
moved and the stem stretched out to four
or five feet, it is SO elastic. You let this
dry in the sun, and you have an eyeless
needle already threaded.
The natives of the country use nothing
but the mescal thread needle, as they call
it, to sew their garments. You can
make as fine a thread as needed If you
desire fine thread pull the stem and it
will grow smaller IN the same way that
rubber will. The thread is as strong as
wire. Ropes and heavy Irvine can be made
from the plant that will be almost as
strong as steel wire cable. The big stems
of the leaves can be used, and there are
about fifty leaves to each head that can be
utilized. The United States and Mexico
can have monopoly in this rope, for no
where else on the globe is the plant to be
found.-New York Telegram

He'd hang 1t by lengthy string right over

From the top of a volcano he would hang it by

And there until twas nicely cooked he'd let

To get his boiling water he would lower down

From the ashes of the mountain he would light

1t has been but a short time since investi-
cation has shown that the supposed happy
family made up OF the prairie dog, the bur
rowing owl and the rattlesnake, is not only
not happy family, but does not exist at
ALL Our first idea was that these three
animals Of such different habits lived in
perfect harmony, like the so called happy
families Of the modern circus; but faith in
this belief is somewhat shaken by the fol
lowing, which may be found in Woods
Natural History" According to popular
belief, these three creatures live very har-
moniously together, but observation has
shown that the snake and owl are inter
lopers, living in the burrow because the
poor owner cannot turn them out and
finding an easy subsistence off the young
prairie dogs"
We were satisfied with this for a time,
