The Trout Fly.

No doubt the fairest and most ele-
CANT method of catching salmon. in
low, clear water, is with the trout fly,
says London sportsman There is a
controversy, which should have been
decided long ago, as to whether salmon
feed in rivers. No food, as a rule, is
found in their stomaches, but they de-
cidedly feed. Even if they rush at
flies from curiosity it cannot explain
their taking worms. Moreover, fish
has been seen to rise in tranquil loch,
at large. yellow butterfly, and on the
Tweed a salmon was observed to
swallow n bee baited on a hook.
On the Dee, a salmon may be noticed
taking March browns, as trout do, and
they are caught, both there and on the
Tweed, with rather large, artificial
March browns This settles the oues-
ton as to their feeding in fresh water.
But with high, steady glass, with
cloudless skies and low, silver streams,
1t is weary thing to wait for their CO.
PRECIOUS appetites, and many fisher is
flying from rivers that are becoming as
dusty as turnpike roads. Where is the
old "Aprile with his schouris swete," as
Chaucer wrote it.

An Odd Fish.

One of the oldest fishes that ever
swan in any sea is that known to nat
uralists under the unattrac tive name of
"ophiocephalus." A species of it is
found in the sea of Galilee, where it
builds nest which for beauty of de-
sign and elegance of workmanship ex-
cells the efforts of the majority of
feathercd nestbuilders. Its favorite
spot for building is in an old root or
rock projecting under the water, and the
material consists of seawecd, grass and

Tho Plous Russian.

The Russian is very religious man.
Whenever he leaves his cottage or enters
it he will bow before the image of a
saint that invariably has its place in n
corner at the window, and before which
small lamp is constantly burning.
Never will he touch any food or drink
uutil he has made the sign of the holy
cross; that takes the place of prayer
and is not done without thinking of the
Creator.

European Centennial Anniversaries.

While the people of the western hemi
sphere are celebrating c~entennials and
sesquicentennials, and are getting ready Il.
commemorate their first quadrocenten-
NAL, it seems strange to read in the Euro
pean papers of Publications in small towns
at anniversaries of events of much more
remote date. Basic, Switzerland, cele-
DRAFTED the other day the 5OOth anniversary,
not of its foundation, which long ante
dates that, but of the union of great and
little Basic. Early in the morning che
authorities and societies of the two parts
of the city met on the middle Of the bridge
over the Rhine, and felicitated one another
upon the benefits of the union of 500 years
ago. Then followed a religious service at
the cathedral, a grand dinner and a great
out Of door historic play, in which 1900
actors took part, with 1900 spectators.
The performance consisted simply of four
tableaux with dialogue, solos, choruses
and dances and a very effective orchestral
accompaniment. The tableaux repre-.
sented first the Emperor Valentinian
founding Basilea out of the half savage
fishing community, then Basic under the
suzerainty of Bishop Henry, of Thun, and
the building of the first bridge over the
Rhine, then the oppressive rule of Rudolf
of Hapsburg and his downfall at Sempach,
and finally a grand scene with all the
characters united under the wing of Hell.

Enormous Sale of Zola's Novels,

Those persons who are of the opinion
that the school of SO called realism, of
which NJ. Emile lola is the leading ex.
ponent, has no considerable following will
doubtless be astounded that more than
100000 copies of that erratic and erotic
writer's novels have been sold, M the
translations are not included in this esti-
mate. 1t is not surprising to learn that
mana" heads the list with 160,O 900 copies,
for weeds grow fastest in literary as we'll as
in other fields. The great royalties which
these enormous sales must yield to the au-
thor ought to console him for the injury
done his vanity by the academy in refus-

Summer in Colorado.

If you are calculating on spending your
summer vacation in Colorado, you should
consider the most comfortable way to get
there. The handsomest train in the world
runs daily from Chicago to Pueblo. Color
ado Springs, Manitou and Denver, without
change, over the Santa Fe route. There is
no other through car line to Manitou, the
great Colorado resort. You must transfer
and change cars if you go any way other
than over the Santa Fe route from Chicago.
Don't forget this, it is an important fact.
A through car runs on through Manitou,
Ute Pass. Cascade Canon, Green Mountain
Falls. Buena Vista and Glenwood Springs
to Ogden and Salt Lake City, without
change from Chicago. On any other line
you can't do it. Jno. 7. Byrne, Asst. Pass.

Weekly Crop Report.

Another week of excessively hot
weather has prevailed over the state, with
a general deficiency in rainfall, both of
which conditions have greatly increased
the dubious outlook for this years crop.
Considerable of the early sow wheat,
rye and barley are pretty we'll secured,
as an almost general harvest of those
cereals has been in progress for the past
ten days; but there yet remains a large
quantity of the early and all of the late
sown wheat which will undoubtedly be
greatly injured if the present weather
conditions continue. Grass, also, is re-
ported to be drying fast from the effect
of the heat. Many farmers, believing
that they will be gamers thereby, will
not wait for the grain to mature before
cutting.
Over the major portion of the state the
rainfalls were few and light, and from
nearly all sections come reports of SUI
fering by drought. In the southeast
counties a very heavy rain and hail
storm occurred on Friday night, the 18th,
causing most serious damage. The cor
respondent at Moorhead, Mimi, reports
a loss of between 100000 and 100000 bu-
shells of wheat in his locality; the cor
respondent at Wild Rice, Cass county,
says that an average of five bushels to
the acre were lost, while a special from
Fargo to the Minneapolis Tribune
states that a careful survey shows that
100000 bushels we're destroyed in the
vicinity of Argusville and Gardner, Cass
county.
Throughout the northern and extreme
northeast counties the outlook is more
hopeful. Although the temperature
there has also been above the normal,
several good showers occurred, and
grain is ripening fast and we'll in con-
sequence. Barley and oats are nearly
all cut in Pembina county, though
slightly rusted, and wheat harvest is in
full blast.
The potato crop is also being injured
by the excessive heat and absence of
ram. Many correspondents report that
the crop will be short and small.
Normal precipitation for past week,
about so of an inch. The following re-
ports of rainfall for the same period are
received: Bismarck, "a; Moorhead,
1.6l; Fort Bufford, 10; st. Vincent, 80;
