Mr.. Lozier Saws No.
The Fargo Argus has the following:

The Fargo Argus has the following:
Leon Lozier, the Splinter, has now trans
ferred, his base Of operations to Bismarck,
and is now engaged in an endeavor to ar.
range. a foot race with somebody there.
Loz!er was, several years ago, considered
the best SOO-yard man on this continent.
Fol a lime he made a good living by run
ming at various firemen'S tournaments, but
ne is a tretcherous fellow and soon lost all
teams. At Sioux Falls, s. D., five years
ago he was almost killed. He was engaged
to lead one of the hose teams, but pulled
back the entire distance. When they
crossed the score the man behind LoZier
knocked him down, and the whole team
made him a target for fists and heels for a
rev minutes. Lozier was dubbed and
OF beefsUeak. In appearance he is a heavy
set, muscular man, and looks every inch
a foot racer.
II know that is an old story, now"
said Lozier, last night, when the article
wa called to his attention, "but I can
say that l was entirely innocent of n
intent to pull back. Huntley and I ran
on the lead, and I pulled to the best of
my ability for $50 yards, and was SO ex-
hausted then that I was utterly unable
to pull another pound. And even then,
I ran to the 3OO-yard mark, although I
did not pull any. When we crossed the
mark, the leader of the team, a fellow
named Martbridge, struck me over the
head with a two-by-four plank, aud I
carry the scar yet. The whole team
then jumped upon me. II this was brave,
I fail to see it,"
Reid, also, had a few words to say
about the article, and while he admitted
the truth of the statements contained
therein, in the main, he denounced the
act of the Sioux Falls club as one of the
most brutal outrages ever perpetrated.
"Lozier did his best" he said, sand the
assault on him wal unprovoked and
criminal. It is too old a thing to discuss
now, but I do not like to see it revived,
without giving Lozier q chance to de-
fend himself"

Work on the Barpes.

vi AO A0nISob
Thursday morning work was begun
on the barges which are being builded
by the Josephus Plenty company for the
carrying of coal from the Mercer county
mines to points along the river.
The barges being builded now are
merely the pioneers Of the enterprise,
and are being constructed with the view
of experimenting as to the size most
adaptable to the traffic. Those now in
course of construction are to be ninety
four feet long and about twenty-five
feet in width. The carrying capacity
cannot be exactly stated, but is estimated
at $50 tons. OF course, if it is found by
actual service that Elonger barges can be
used with greater success, those next
constructed will be longer, even up to
100 feet, if necessary.
The timber used is coast fir, of the
finest quality, and every part and por-
ton of the barges will be solidly and
substantially constructed.
It is expected by the managers of the
company, that the first shipment of coal
will be made this fall. In the Mercer
county mines is found as good q quality
of coal as there is in the state, and many
firms and manufactures along the
course Of the Missouri river are anxious
to make, test of it. ~
It is, also, the impression among river
men that it can be successfully and pro-
ftably used on steamboats,. The test
will probably be made as soon as the
traffic commences. 35& ~.r IT.

Besides this, there are other timber
lands set aside by special acts of con-
gress that should be added to the above,
to-wit:
The original Yellowstone Park,
created March 1, 1872, being sixty-five
miles long from north to south, and
ffty-fve miles in width from east to
west, and containing near 2,28S, 900 acres
(3,575 square mlles>. The addition to
above makes the present park to con-
tain 4,576,O0O acres. The "National
Grant Park" contains, 7 believe $40
acres. And more than this, an extern
sive tract of land known as the "White
River Plateau" of Colorado has been set
aside by the presidents proclamation as
a permanent reserve. 1t contains near
100000 acres, making a grand total Of
national eserves and national parks of
over twenty-five and one-sixth millions Of
acres. In addition to this great area, q
petition has recently (July q, 1891
been presented to President Harrison
praying for the withdrawal from market
of all the government timber lands sit
uated upon the Rocky mountains within
the state of Colorado.
RESERVES ESTABLISHED.
The following four reserves named in
the list above, have been permanently
established by 8 proclamation Of Prssi.

Cheeky vags.
The vags, who we're gathered in by
Policeman Marsh and locked up in the
cooler, appeared before Judge Boyle
Friday morning. One lof. them got
the regular dose-s7.65. Another, when
arraigned, paralyzed the Judge with the
statement that he was willing to work.
He said the food served by Sheriff
Donnelly was pretty good, and that he
would stay and work for the city for his
board. Winter was coming on, he said,
and he had mo place to room, so he
would be glad to get sixty or ninety
days in jail. His GOODNESS stunned the
judge, and as soon as he recovered he
informed him that he would be given
until II o'clock to leave town. The third
victim, also, was given until noon to
shake the dust of the city from his feet
How's This?
Manager Falconer has received the
following letter:
SEATTLE WASH, Aug. %, '92.
W.. A. FALCONER, NJ anager:
DEAR SIR: The Seattle base ball team,
which has been awarded the championship
Of the Pacific Northwest league, proposes
to remain intact for a trip from Seattle to
Chicago, during which.it intends to play a
series OF games with teams in any towns
along the road that desire dates. The
team will start east in about a week in a
special car. which will be sidetracked
wherever a game is to be played.
The team has created a furOre by its
splendid play OF late in this section, and is
today as strong a minor league team as
there is in the country. The players are
known as Hatfield 8 Hustlers," and will be
billed in that way on the trip.
There are in the party several players
who are known to the base ball public
everywhere, among them Gil Hatfield,
Billy Earle and DANNY Mlnnehan. In
Camp and McGinnis it has two of the
finest young pitchers in America.
The trip will be made under the auspices
OF responsible business men of Seattle,
Tor advertising purposes, and the team
ought to be a big drawing card. We
should like to get one or more games in
your city upon a reasonable guarantee
with the privilege of a percentage of the
gate receipts. AS the time before we
leave is short, it will be necessary for you
TO wire an answer, which can be sent
either to Gilbert Hatfield, manager Seattle
base ball club, or to myself.
Yours, ETC.,
F..B. INGERsoLL.
Care of Post Intelligencer.
This letter has created quite an excite
ment among the sports. The Seattle
club is known to be a good one, and a
game with them means the best practice
for the home team. It has always been
noticed that the Bismarck team plays a
better game pitted against some good
team, than when playing with a poor
club. Manager Falconer favors the idea
of getting up a game, as do all the mem
bers of the club.
Manager Falconer said last evening
that he was in favor of the arrangement
of a game, and would so telegraph the
Seattle team.
This game promises to be the best
ever played in this city. The Seattle
team are reputedly expert, and while
there is not much doubt as to how the
game will result, there is always 70 ON
| for q surprise.

Concerning the Several Interests of
Burleigh County, Agricultural
and Otherwise.
Work Begun on the Coal Barges For
the Plenty Company, at the
River Landing.
Other Local News, of an Interesting
Nature, as Carefully Gathered
and Prepared.
A Few Figures.

From the statlstlcal report prepared
by the county auditor from facts
gathered by the several county as
SCISSORS Is exhibited some figures, re-
lat1ng to the agricultural interests in
Burleigh county, which may prove in
teresting.
There are in the county at the present
time 345 separate and distinct farms.
In these are embraced over $4,000 acres
of land, of which 10000 acres are under
cultivation. These farms represent an
actual cash value of nearly a third of a
million dollars, to which is added over
$4,000 for structures and improvements.
The farmers of the county have, be.
sides this, $31, 900 invested in agricul-
tural implements and machinery.
Contrary to expectation the wheat acre.
age is greater in Burleigh county this
year than last by about 5000 acres.
Oats, also, have increased in acreage,
5,511 acres having been planted this
year, as against 3,847 last year. Barley
has just about held it's own, the acreage
being smaller by five acres. Flax has
experienced the same decrease which it
has suffered throughout the whole
state, So acres only having been planted
in '92, while in 81 there were 210 acres
in cultivation, a net decrease of Is per
cent.
Rye, on the other hand, has increased
in acreage from $50 acres in 81 to 1874
this year. The potato crop will be
smaller, than it was in 81, there being
a decrease of about 80 in acreage.
OF the 278,707 bushels of wheat
raised in the county last year 1880
bushels we're found to be still in the
hands of farmers at the time of the as
SCISSORS visits. Out of 1862 bushels
of oats raised, 1880 bushels we're found
in the county, by the assessors. In
wheat, there was a loss of 1,120 bushels
because of failure to get threshing done
in time, a loss of 72O bushels of oats and
ITO of barley.
Contrary to report, only Is bushels of
threshed wheat which had been kept
over winter was found worthless for
market this spring.
In 1891, Burleigh county farmers dis
posed of $2,740 worth of garden products,
sold $4,482 worth Of poultry and eggs,
made 1855 pounds Of cheese, 68,940
pounds of butter, extracted and sold
$4,000 worth of milk from the gentle
COW, fattened and killed animals whose
value amounted to s14,791, clipped
1909 pounds of wool, and otherwise
distinguished themselves.
Burleigh county farmers have also
some 277 fruit bearing trees, 1924 fruit
trees not in bearing, and 346 acres of
artificial forests.
Beside all this, Burleigh county has
the finest climate in the world, plenty of
room for settlers, a fertile soil and splen-
did natural advantages to give them
when they come, and is always ready to
tender q hearty welcome.

Royal Lap Dogs.


Mary Queenoof Scots Had favorite
lap dog, which is said to have been
present at the execution of its poor
mistress in Fotheringay castle. After
the royal lady had been beheaded this
faithful creature refused to leave her
dead body and had to be carried out of
the hall by force. At that period lap
dogs were the pets of men as well as
of women. DIR. Boleyn, relative of
the unhappy Queen Anne Boleyn, owned
one which" as it is written, ''he
dotted on" Anne once asked him to
grant her one wish, and in return he
should have whatever he might desire.
Knowing his affection for the dog, she
begged it of him, and, of course, the
doctor had nothing to do but to give it
to her. And, now, madame" he said,
you promised to grant my request, u
81 will" quoth the queen. 'sThen. I
pray you. give me my dog again"

members of the board of education but

An investigation of the law in the
premises disclosed the fact that such
residents are entitled to two members
of the board, and the city board OF
education. at a meeting held Thursday

two such members and asked that the
voters designate who they wanted.
Petitions were circulated asking for
