Farmers VIII Try 10 MAKE q Gut InaS
Year.
GRAND FORKS. N. D., July 20.-A
meeting of the Farmers Alliance of
this state has been called to be held in
this city on Saturday, July 20. for the
purpose of taking definite action re-
garding harvest wages. Representa-
tives from this state and Minnesota will
be present. When wheat was worth
from rs cents to 81 per bushel, farmers
were paying for harvest hands from
g. to g. 0 per day. Now that wheat
is worth less than so cents per bushel a
commensurate reduction in the price of
labor should be insisted upon. Hith-
erto farmers have paid harvest hands
about the price OF three bushels of
wheat per day, and If this rule is con-
formed to this year not more than $l.25
to 81. so per day should be paid.

Eavages on the Plaisance Developing
Great Appetites.
CHICAGO, July 2O.-There is likely TO
be considerable trouble among the. saw
age and oriental tribes on the Midway
plaisance before the close OF the fair, as
the result Of their sudden and inordi-
nate love of liquor. Already it has been
found necessary to send several OF the
savages back home because of their In
clination to run amuck after loading
themselves up with intoxicants. The
big colony of savage Dahomeyans who
never knew the taste of beer until their
arrival in Chicago have developed a ca
pacity tor the amber fnid equal to that
of workers in a brewery.
Must Have Beer In Sight. "
Lately it has been found necessary to
put two or three cases of beer in sight
on the platform before they commenced
their dances and other performances.
and as soon as the programme is ended
the semi-naked heather make a dash
for the supplies. and. d~exterously fore.
ing in the corks. insert the neck of thu
bottle between their teeth and keep !,
there until the contents are entirely
exhausted. A repetition of this pro
gramme at frequent intervals during
the day, puts them into an hilariou,
mood by dusk. and strict precau
tons have been found necessary to keel
them from breaking away from tin
village and raising hail Columbia abouf
the plaisance. Many of the Moors ant
others have also taken a fancy 4
whisky and other strong drinks, ant
the viler the quality the more they lik
it, and the greater amount they chi
get away with. Fears are espresso
that these conditions will some do
lead to a general eineute on the thor
oughfate.

A Deaf Mute Club.

Paris has number of very peculiar

haps than any other city. It's deaf
mute club has been frequently spoken

and dumb men, all OF them compare

thus afflicted and who is in a position
TO retain staff of domestics. TO retain
these as interpreters, but in this club
there is no pandering TO modern ideas,
and no servant is engaged unless he or
she has lost the power to either speak
or hear. As result the establishment
is as silent as the tomb and is an ex-

COURTESY or THE cELEsTIALs.

The Gentle Manners Of the Chinese Lower
Glasses Surprising to Americans.
The Chinese are, as race, the most
courteous people l have ever come in
contact WITH. says writer in the
Arena. When it is taken into eonsid-
Grafton that majority of the Chinese
who come to this country belong to
the lower or lowest class their gentle
manners are truly surprising. / have
seen parties OF well-dressed Americans
go into one Of their stores, poke about
among the goods. or wander into the
clubroom, watch the games, handle the
instruments of the orchestra and ask
all sorts of questions concerning them.
The intruders were treated as vel
come guests. their questions answered,
and tea, CONNECTIONS and cigarettes
offered them on departure. Fancy the
reception that would be accorded to q
party of unidentified Chinese who at
tempted to take look through one OF
our own fashionable clubs In the res
taurant their conduct is the same. l
imagine that if three or four Chinese
were to take it into their heads to dine
at one of our uptown restaurants they
would be subjected to many unpleasant
remarks, probably some insolence from
the walters, and, if they should prove
as awkward in handling the knife and
fork as the average American is with
the chopsticlls, would cause considera-
BILE merrirnent among the other guests.
But in Mott street the practice of
good breeding is different. Time and
again | have seen some good-natured
Chinese let his own dinner grow cold
that he might show some clumsy Ameri-
can stranger who was struggling with
the chopsticils how to use those elusive
but usefUl implements. 1t is a very
simple trick after it is learned, and one
which ] have often found useful at
other places than at table in q Chi
ncse restaurant. Once mastered. with
a couple OF pencils one can improvise 4
very serviceable pair OF tongs to pick
UP a bee or struggling worm, Il bit of
hot metal, or any such small object
which one does not care to touch with
ones fingers. The first sticl, should be
held rigidly, about three inches from
the lower end, between the ball of the
second finger, the first joint of the
thumb and the hand, just below the
knuckle joint of the first fnger-very
much in fact, as clumsy schoolboy
holds his pen. The second stick should
be held almost exactly as d good pen
man holds his pen, lightly, between
the ball of the thumb and of the first
finger, slightly resting along and
steadied by that finger, to just between
the second and knuclsic joints. Chi
resc meats are all served cut into small
pieces, so as to be readily eaten with
chopsticEs, thus materially reducing
the labor OF dining.

acknowledged, finding pleasure in his
ability to say SO. Il am engaged to a
most charming girl who l am confident

He had arisen, and she sprang to her
feet and confronted him, her chin quiv-
cring. For some moments they stood
looking into each others eyes, strange
feeling creeping over them.

''you are brute! IL did th-think you
would have more regard for me than
this. If you marry again I'll kill my
self"
Dear little SOUL How Hummer

sole hey!
But you are going to get married"
he protested.
NO, am not" she quickly asserted.
II did think of it, but I've changed my
mind now. You don't love me a bit,
and l am ready to die
He couldn't resist longer, SO he caught
her close to his breast, and she sobbed
on his shoulder, making no attempt to
get away.
"Edna," he murmured. his mustache
close to her shapely little ear; 1--WE
have been deceiving ourselves. We
care more for each other than for all
the rest of the world. We ought 70
live happily together. Let's try it over
again, little wife"
Il am willing. DEAR

face, and he kissed her dainty mouth.
