THOSE who personally know
Col. Plumer can appreciate his
efforts at making prohibition
speeches. In Bismarck at the
Atheneum last Saturday night the
colonel was placed along with At
torney General Standish, Con-
gresham Johnson, DR.. Bentley
and others as temperance speak
ers, or more strictly speaking, for
the discussion of the question Of
closing the saloons. He said he
believed in personal prohibition
and was at present engaged in an
experiment of that kind himself.
He did not know how long it
would continue, but hoped it
would be permanent. The colonel
said the reform for old men was a
difficult matter, but that youths
who had not taken their first drink
yet should be looked after most
carefully. He spoke of the open
drug store as an evil of equally as
great consequence as the blind pig
or saloon.

SAYS the Bismarck Tribune of
Friday morning, eight ballots
were taken in joint convention to-
day. On the first ballot there
was no change from the last bal
lot yesterday, except that Havre-
void, who voted for Worst, was
absent and Okendahl changed
from Sutherland to Kingman, and
Oliver to Worst. On the second
the Independents, excepting Lo-
gan, voted for Benton. Davis
changed to Casey. A special tel
egran to the PRESS yesterday
stated that there was no choice,
but that the Republicans were
likely to causus, in which event
the candidate developing the
most strength would be united
upon.

AT THE LANES TURNING.
The Ups and Downs in the Life of Bill
Bowman

1t is a long lane that has no turning.
Sixteen years ago Bill Bowman, young
man with wife and four children, came
overland from Northern Minnesota
and settled among the vineclad hills and
willow groves Of the Pawnee reserva
ton. He had team of plug horses
and two or three COWS with which to
make fresh start in life, and he built
a house Of sod and barn of the same
material and was hungry, How he
fought against heas and adversely and
finally got a start and hOurished ike a
green bay tree is too long story, but
in six years he sold his farm and stock
for $1,000 in cash and went farther
West to grow up with the country some
more.
He moved to Southern Colorado in
the summer OF 1883 He was stranger
and they took him in, and when through
with him he had gone through with the
major portion of his little fortune. He
came back to Nebraska poor in purse
but opulent in experience, and has
since performed all sorts of honest
labor to obtain bread for his family and
tobacco for himself Last year he
traded all his real estate equities and
promissory note for Ottoman, a
crooked legged colt, sired by the tam
Gus Shadeland Onward, banking his al
in the prospect that the colt might
make record and prove a mine o
wealth to the owner. Bowman has bu
one eye, but that eye must have beer
created for a purpose, for Ontonian ha
not only fulfilled his highest expecta
tons but dlstanced them.
He won the recent free-for' all a
PUnca and then went to Sioux Fall
and lowered the record by Severa
seconds, and now gives promise c
lowering the worlds record as PAGER
An ardent admirer of the beast was Il
Lincoln yesterday and ventured tn
opinion that the colt would readily Sc
for $40, 900 right now, and would prob
ably bring double that price before tn
season is over. Incidentally the gooC

CAUSE OF ToRNADoEs.
The Meeting Of Head Winds from
North and South.


From the Gulf of Mexico to the
North Pole, and from the lakes to the
Rocky Mountains, is vast extent OF
country crossed by no mountain chains
to intercept or retard the velocity OF
air currents. The extent of this country
is equalled by none on earth Cold
air being heavier to the square inch
than warm air, the cold air, when com
ing in contact with warm current
from the south, always predomlnates,
forcing the warm air into the upper
currents.
The cause of cyclones Is tGe meeting
of head wind from the north with a
head wind from tn south They meet
like to vast armies of men. The pres
sure at the point Of meeting is SO great
that the air, by compression, becomes
heavier to the square inch than wood
or the human body, hence either one
will feat in water-it floats because Il
is lighter to the square inch than water
Place water in an ordinary wash bow
and remove the plug, and II will b'
observed that in passing out the waite
forms a circular reaction. Air, being
liquid, does the same in passing eithe
upward or downward, hence the funne
shaped spout Of the cyclone center
When two immense bodies Of air, com
ing from opposite directions, meet, the
only egress is upward and sideways
and in passing upward it forms the
funnel the same as water passing out OF
waSh-bow downward
The theory that a cyclone forms a
vacuum is absurd. Withdraw air from
a glass jar with an air pump, and q
feather within the vacuum formed viii
drop with the same velocity as lead, or
on the other hand, you can compress
air until it is heavier to the square incl
than wood, in which case wood vii
float in the air. The lifting power ii
a cyclone is caused (I), by the com
preston or density of the air, and (2)
by its velocity. Combining the powe
of density with that of velocity, which
occurs at the center or funnel, NJ
power can resist it. The feeling o
suffocation or difficulty in breathln!

Aim at the Drake
And you are bound to hit some Of the
ducks. This is precisely the same with
Wanpole's
asteless
Preparation
Cod Liver Oil.

1t aims to cure Consumption,
Hits the Mark, too, and it
most effectually breaks Colds,
Coughs, Hoarseness and all
Throat and Lung troubles that
cause this disease.
1t is natural logic to conclude
that if WAMPOLE's PREPARATION
| OF COB LIVER OIL has power
to prevent Consumption, it sure
ly is allie to cure these lesser
emergencies.
This vigor-making, fat pro-
ducing preparation is Absolute
ly Tasteless, in SO far as Cod
Liver Oil is concerned. All
you notice is a delightful flavor
of Wild Cherry and Anise.
But the purest Norwegian
Cod Liver Oil is there all the
same. 1t is a great blood en-
richer. Best of all it is a natu-
raj food that in its stomachic
effects, actually assists its own
assimilation.
In Pulmonary or Bronchia
troubles it is unequalled. Nc
one doubts the value of COD
Liver Oil, but not every one is
able to take it.

MANUFACTURE OF GUN FLlNrs.
It Is Ono OF tho Oldest Trades, N Not the
Very Oldest.

1t Is Ono OF tho Oldest Trades, N Not the
Very Oldest.
There are in all twenty-thrce differ
ent kinds of flint m ade, but It requires
some ingenuity to stretch them out so
far. For instance, to make up the list
you have gray musfcts and block mus.
kets, where difference is not Mt oil in
the workmanship. but in the alleged
quality of the flint
Setting aside the minor kinds, the
main classes of flint are for the common
gun, the pocket and horse pistols, the
muskct, rifle and carbine.
From the narrow point Of his fake
the workman chips diminutive flint
for pocket pistol, though not SO many
of these arc required rs of larger size
for horse pistols But the tlints most
in request arc the neat and well-shaped
ones used for rifles, and the biggest OF
all are required for carbines.
There is also n continuous, though
not a very considerable demand for
strike-a-lights, meant for the use OF
travellers and sportsmen who have had
experience in damp matches As each
of these has its own shape and size,
which must be accurately reproduced,
1t will be seen that the knapper ut the
anvil has task demanding both skill
and Judgment Yet it's execution has
become SO much habit with him that
he talks and chips away as if by
instinct.
at every sharp pop down drops gun
flint, which he takes in his hand and
lets the hammer play round till the
sharp edges ara blunted and the size
made exactly what is required The
speed at which he works may be in
ferred from the fact that each man ca.
thousand day.
In time of pressure llnapper has
been known-by commencing very
early in the morning and working 70
late hour ut night-to make nine thou
sand. But that is deemed IN extraor-
binary and prodigious days work.
The employers, as well as the men,
reckon that, taken all the year round
a third OF that number represents the
output of n man.
This means about twelve thousand q
week, for it is IN old custom in the
trade to make Saturday and Monday
holidays--the former is devoted to play
and the latter is given up to tool sharp
ening.
Knapping cannot be done unless the
hammers are in perfect order and 1t is
said that the only smiths that can put !
them right are few in the ne!ghbor-
hood of Brandon, who have done the
work from infancy and know to a
nicely the face and temper required.
1t is very difficult to calculate The
gross number OF gun fints made an
nually. as the work is in moro hands
than one, but in all England there are
certainly not thirty men who can shape
a flint Business used to huctuate very
much, and in dull times some of the
operators were obliged to seek employ
ment elsewhere.
From half dozen to dozen KNAPP
pers have constant work, however, and,
while they do not make fewer than four
million annually, they must DO very
busy to make eight million. Brandon
is the chief but not the only seat of the
manufacture.
Gun flints are still made in small
quantities ut Malaga, for example, and
specimens are TO be seen in the British
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Magazine.
