They Plugged the wheat.

They Plugged the Wheat.
+. A gentleman whe was down in the Red
River Valley tells of new way the honest
farmer has Of getting even with the elevator
companies. There was some of the previous
years damaged wheat last spring in the To-
cality referred to, which was not salable
at the elevators; SO the ingenuity of the sons
of toll was brought to bear to contrive
some way to make them take it. Finally the
following plan was devised The bottom, of
grain sack was filed with good wheat A
lengthof stovepipe was inserted in the center
of the sack and. filed with the rejected wheat.
The sack was then filled around the stovepipe
with good wheat and the pipe Withdrawn,
and on top Of this was put good wheat. In
this manner q neat plug Of rejected wheat
seven inches In diameter and two feet in
length was inserted il each sack, and was so
surrounded by good wheat that it was al
most impossible to detect it when it was
dumped into the hopper, especially if the
contents of q sack which had not been
plugged" was Immediately dumped on top
of the contraband wheat. It is said to be
scheme which will circumvent the most
.eagle-eyed elevator man. = Valley City

The Tennessee Persecutl

The IennoSSoo Eeroecutt0ns
The Baptist eleanor, a hardshell Baptist
paper published in Kentucky, says: "In-
fidelity and Seventh.day Adventism are
both working to the same end, and each is
glad of an opportunity to secondthe efforts Of
the other in breaking down the Observance
of the Christian Sabbath as a day Of rest.''
Whereupon an exchange remarks /: Our
hardshell brother, continuing, after re.
ferring approvingly to tie Imprisonment Of
seventh.day Adventists near Paris, Tenn,
for working on'sunday, says that the 'fsecret
of it all is that both Infldels and Adventists
despise the law Of God, and the law Of the
land as well. y Will not our Kentucky
brother take column or two of the space
which he devotes weekly to wrangling with
the Complexities who have made it hot for:
him in debate, abusing the Methodists,
misrepresenting and maligning liberal think.
ers of whom he knows nothing, boasting Of.
controversial victories he never achieved, and
which would amount to nothing if he had
won them, and editorially putting all kinds
Of nostrums--wil1 he not take some Of this
space to show that Sunday is the Sabbath:
Of the Bible, aud that he and not the
seyenth-day Adyentists is the Sabbath
breaker" An attempt Of this kind might
serve to arouse the mind Of our hardshell
brother sufficiently to give him faint idea
Of how extremely little he knows about the
origin and history Of Sunday MS a Sabbath.

price Of this painting?' The director of
the exhibition, who was corpulent
man, with white beard, looked up
the price-list, and said: 'One hundred
English pounds, which are equal to
two hundred and fifty Persian toman.
answered: The price of a live ass is
at the most five pounds; why should
this be SO dear when it is only the pic

Because it causes no expense and eats

Married Only In Wells County.
Says the New Rockford Transcript: A good
joke has leaked out on an ex-justice Of the
peace of Wells county, who also happens TO
be newspaper man. The story runs that
when he first assumed the '.judicial ermine"
warrant of arrest was taken out of his court
by brand-new constable. The expected pris-
oner was found over in Foster county, but
refused to surrender on the warrant, for the
reason that the justice issuing it had no
jurisdiction out Of his own ounty, and the
constable reported the afsi. to ''hizzoner."
The next official act was o marriage
ceremony, which was performed in o claw
hammer coat and, after invoking the bless
ings Of the Almighty, the justice concluded :
"And now pronounce you man and wife
so long rs you remain in Wells County. I
haint got no jurisdiction outside O. that"

Hotel Clerks Admire the Business
Methods OF Womon's Clubs.
The various women's clubs and or
ganizations of one sort and another
that hold meetings and banquets at the
hotels have SO increased in the past few
years that it has become a distinct
phase of hotel management to care for
this branch Of the business. The hotels
like to cater to this custom. The pay
is prompt and the women are never un-
reasonable, says the New York Times.
one Of the hotels by woman's club, at
the close of which, about five o'clock,
the treasurer approached the cashier at
his desk and asked for the bill.
"What bill?" he inquired, not under
standing.
why, our bill for to-day's entertain
tnent, the-club's bill"
The clerk rallied and consulted his
books, soon announcing the amount,
two hundred and eighty dollars. The
money was counted out and handed
over.
"Well, really, ladies'" said the clerk,
as he signed receipt, 'if you were
men should offer cigars or bottle of
wine on the part of the house for this
unusual promptness. Is there anything
we can do for you? You really take my
breath away. We are not accustomed
to be paid for banquet before it's
dishes are washed"
It is the exception when all such bills
are not paid with equal promptness by
these gatherings OF women.
