1t was about three months ago that Keys
hrst turned up at the station. No one has
the slightest idea where ia The world he
came from. but he's there and he's got
many friends.
The sergeant has big cowbell. 1t weighs
over pound, bat the pIoudest moments Of
Keys life is when he is dashing about with
that cowbell tied to his neck with hay
rope. It's the noise he likes. He has PEN
chant for noises of all kinds. and he fondly
believes there is no sweeter music in all the
world than the sound of that big cowbell.
So greatly does Keys prize this honor of
wearing the cowball that the sergeant
keeps it as sort of reward. to be worn only
after Keys has done some specially meri-
torious act.
Keys will have no pedigree, but his pro-
geny will have reason to be proud of their
intellectual ancestor, and they ought to be
worth money in the dog market.

Its Remarkable Development Shown BY n
Worlds Fair Exhibit.

L EAlE EAnAulAs
The Transportation building at the
worlds Fair is the most interesting feature
OF the great exposition to all persons inter-
ested in the development Of the United
States. 1t contains a complete exhibit of
the latest railway appliances as well as the
quaint locomotive and stage coaches Of the
past. The Northern Pacific railroad went a
step further than other transportation COM
panies when 1t resolved TO show two elegant
cars, especially built for the purpose, con-
tanning samples Of products gathered from
the states of Wisconsin, Minnesota, North
Dakota, Montana, Idaho, Washington and
Oregon. The company was, no douDt,
prompted to make this display because the
completion of its transcontinental line
made the development Of the states named
possible. Had it not been for the enter
prise and pluck Of the originators and man
ayers of the Northern Pacific railroad,
North Dakota, Montana, Idaho and WASH
ington would still be frontier territories in
habited by Indians and wild beasts, instead
OF being progressive and prosperous COM |
mon wealths. The products exhibited BY
the seven states are handsomely arranged
and lsclude all kinds OF grams IN the straw, |
threshed grains and seeds, fruits and Der.
RES; wild and cultivated grasses; ores,
woods, iron and coal; precious metals and
stones; hops, tobacco and fax; -four, wool 4
aud fish; tanning bark and tanning acid;
marble, building stone, potter anu brick;
aerateu, dried, preserved and canned
fruits; vegetables, petriied woods, fine
mineral specimens, etc, etc. In the season
OF fresh apples, pears, plums, cherries,
peaches, prunes, grapes, berries, melons,
roots and garden vegetables will be brought
from the northwestern states, daily. for ex-
hibition. In short, the exhibit comprises a
general collection Of all kinds Of products
10 show the diversified resources Of the
seven great northwestern states traversed
by the Northern Pacific railroad.
Visitors who intend to invest money in
the northwest are reminded by attractive
placards that the company still retains con-
troll Of immense tracts Of land in that terri
tory, the exact figures beng as follows:
Minnesota, 1,201,00 acres; North Dakota.
