THE BUSINESS CLERGYMAN.
New York Ministers Who Must BE Titans
In Executive Force.
Especial CORRESPONDENCE.

AoASNs
Especial Correspondence
NEW York, Sept. 25.-Our complicated
city life nowadays has evcloped a remark
able type of business clergymen. They are
broad shouldered. deep chested, mustach-
ioed, brisk and brusquc men of affairs. To
meet them in a mixed company you would
take them to be bank cashiers or railroad
officers or wholesale merchants, except for
n certain scholarly presence which gives
them n distinction all their own.
The reason is not far to seek. These men
are the Survival of the ~fttest" from the
tremendous crush and stress Of New York
life. The weaklings have disappeared, the
giants remain, and it is theirs to manage
the great religious energies of the metrop-
oils.
Few realize how mighty are these ener.
gies or what a race of Titans is required to
manipulate them. Most people think that
a vigorous city church is much on the model
of the simpler church in smaller places,
only weather. and more elegant. But such
anotion is entirely wrong. A church like st.
Georges, for example, of which DR.. Rains.
ford is rector, is a seething volcano of edu-
cational and social forces, demanding a lead
er who has the genius for organization that
would rule a trunk line railroad. DR..
Rainsford fully meets these requirements.
A six %footer, with the frame of an athlete, a
famous Oxford stroke in his college days
and never happier than when, rifle in hand.
he is hunting grizzlies in the Rocky noun
talns. he needs every muscle and nerve, and
has in fact come sharp up to the precipice
of nervous prostration from the distrac.
tions of his parish duties.
One who visits DR.. Rainsford feels in
stantly that he is meeting a business man
in business hours and that he must dis.
patch his business and retire. Always
courteous, the rector wastes no moments,
pays no compliments, seeks no favors.
That the money will come for his score of
vast enterprises he assumes as a matter of
course, and come it does. AS he once told
the writer, II always have all the money l
want" the reason being that a group of
the richest men in New York know and
trust his splendid administrative genius
and practically give him carte blanche.
Another successful business clergyman
is DR.. Edward Judson of the Adoniram
Judson Memorial church. AS the son of
the famous missionary to Burmah, DR..
Judson is beloved of the whole Baptist
church, but this does not account for the

Gun Was No Good.

Deputy Preston saw q deer on the
hunting expedition which went out from
the capitol on Saturday. When he saw
it first, it stood about fifty yards away,
and looked 30 pretty he didn't want to
shoot 1t. When he did resolve to shoot,
however, and took a rest on q tree stump
to be sure and slaughter the animal at
one fell swoop, his gun wouldn't shoot
straight, and the deer escaped unhurt.

Rev. Cook and mother left Sunday
for a trip to the Worlds Fair. She will
not return to Bismarck but after a visit
in Chicago, 60 on to Missouri, her home.
Mr.. Cook will be absent from the city
for about two weeks and then return to
resume his pastoral charge here. With
no regular services in either the Presby.
terrain or Methodist churches this talent.
ed young divine should receive substatlal
encouragement here this winter.

Statistics OF Embezzlement..

statisticians nowadays apply their indus.
try to all sorts Of subjects. One of the
most curious and suggestive OF these ef-
forts Is that of q Chicago paper to make a
complete record of the entertainments ex-
posed during the year. The figures by
months are as follows: January, $715, 9Ol:
February. 1926 1913; March, $546,4 AL; April,
$6os,1O0; May, $1.652, 1877; June, $765, 800;
July, $1,104,539. This makes a total of
B,7Ol,12l to July 81. The record for Au-
gust exceeds the total for any entire pre-
vious month.

Legend of Cannon Rail-.

SoSAAO Va ~0u~OA AA0A4s
CHICAGO, Sept, 3O.-(Special CORE.
spondence.) Your correspondent has
furnished the state authorities the fol.
lowing legend of the Cannon Ball:
The large, round boulde1s on the lawn
IN front of the North Dakota state build
ing were gathered in the valley of the
Cannon Ball river, a stream of water
that empties into the great Missouri
about thirty miles south of where the
Northern Pacific railroad crosses the
last named stream, at Mandan and Bis.
marck. The bed of this swift running,
pure water river-the Cannon Ball
contains thousands of these pebbles OF
various sizes, and many lawns in North
Dakota and cities along the lower Mis-.
souri, and Mississippi rivers are decor
ated with them.
The Cannon Ball is the boundary be.
tween the lands occupied by the Sioux,
consisting of many tribes, and the allied
tribes Arrickarees, Mandans and eros
Ventres on the north. For many years
the boundary between these people was
in dispute and relentless war waged be.
tween them, each claiming the territory
through which the Cannon Ball river
passes until finally the Great Spirit, in
anger, hurled these balls from Heaven
and drove the Sioux, the stronger of the
~contending parties, back from the lands
OF the A%rrickarees, whose traditions teach
that they were the first people and were
assigned to the bluffs even before the
waters wholly subsidized from the face Of
the earth. For many years they have
produced corn similar to that found in
the caves of the Cliff jewellers in Arizona,
and their ancient pottery is of the same
designs and material. They occupied
the bluffs and the Mandans the lowlands
while the Gros Ventres, or "Big Bellies"
are a larger and harder race more re-
sembling the Sioux, against whom they
joined their friends and allies in fight.
ing. These allied tribes lived many
years after the shower of the cannon
balls, in harmony with the Sioux, meet
ing them in the sun dance or in friendly
council, at q point nea Bismarck, the
capital of North Dakota, as is shown by
the travel in trails leading to Bismarck,
Mandan and Fort Abraham Lincoln
from the home of every tribe, until the
Great Spirit again became angered, when

We do not wish to cause any
unnecessary alarm about the sani-
tary condition of the town, but it
is right that people should be APP
praised of danger in order that
the necessary precaution may be
exercised. The attention of ev-
erybody should be directed to the
prevalence of typhoid fever with
the approach of winter; which, in
nine cases out of ten may be
traced to bad water, poor drainage
or something of the kind about
the premises. If the condition of
your water is bad, boil it, thus de-
stroying the fever microbe. After
the water has been boiled, set it
in a cool wholesome place, and do
not cool it with ice, unless applied

COOPERATIVE HORSE BUYING.
Numbers of Tarmers' Associations Hay
Made 1t Paw.

Numbers of Farmers Associations Have
Made 1t Pay.
Of late years the practice of forming
stock companies among farmers for the
purpose Of buying high priced draft
stations OF other breeding stock has
proved very successful. The following
notes state the facts from the side of the
breeder. 1t seems as if this system
might be extended so as to include the
purchase of other articles.
A breeder writes:
ing imported horses for the last twelve
years, and during that time at least 90
per cent. of all our sales have been made
to stock companies. We were the first
to adopt this mode of selling horses, and
u experience confirms our first i'm
pressions-that it is the best way in
which q stock horse can be owned. The
manifest advantages of this plan as we
have found them are these:
"First-If fifteen OF twenty men COM
bine they a own O better horse than
one individual can, or at least they are
likely to do so.
"Second-The horse is assured of all
the work he can do from the start, and
that nothing succeeds like success
applies to horses as we'll as to anything
else.
"Third-A man is not obliged to talk
horse all the time, as twenty good men
manifestly have more influence than
one.
"Fourth-By taking joint notes or
notes for small sums, the paper becomes
absolutely good, and the seller has to
charge little Of it to profit and loss every
year, and by getting good paper he can
sell his stock on closer margins. All
over the west there are companies that
started ten years ago with one grade
horse which now have the third pure
bred horse which we have sold them,
and each time they have wanted a bet
ter one than the last"
Another breeder writes,
We have done considerable business
in selling stations to clubs of farmers
and find it q very satisfactory way Of
dealing. We use the following forms
for making up clubs and preparing sat
isfactory papers:

Two weeks ago we stated that
the tariff was the principal cause
of the present stagnation in bust
ness, and a sympathetic Gladstone
Democrat who is willing to be-
come sponsor for the p%rofessed

our luminous contemporary, comes
to the rescue and says it is nc
such a thing. Our Gladstone
friend, who. by the way, is q
