one Went Fishing After All.

A pretty story is told of a young mar.
ried couple at one of the hotels. Both
were telegraph operators, and both were
at n time stationed at keys almost
1000 miles apart, yet on the same line,
in the far west. They began talking"
over the wires. The groom, installing
his future bride for a man, was allowed
by her to believe such was the case.
Some of his remarks were for male ears
only, but he always got a reply. Final
ly lone hot day" Bob called up *" and
said: "What do you say to a trip in the
mountains trout fishing? Imagine wad-
ing through cool brooks in weather like
this"
81 would like to CO." came back the
reply, "but have no rubber boots"
ooh, neither have 1. That shouldn't
worry you. All you have to do is to roll
up your trousers and wade in"
For some reason tx" did not reply,
and the friendship was broken. On his
way to the mountains Bob stopped over
at "X's" station. In the telegraph room
he found a pretty, blue eyed girl, about
20. Then he learned all. Two weeks
later, as she hid her faceon his shoulder,
she remarked, 81 didn't think you would
like a girl who would not roll up-who
would not go fishing"

A Girls Musical Education.

We bring up our girls to learn many
things, but above all and beyond ali to
learn music. No one thinks of educating
girls in business or politics. Their teachers
are content with intoxicating the rudiments
of history and geography. They acquire a
mere smattcring of science, but to pass
muster they are all required to spend so
many hours in practicing on the piano. Yet
not over one in u hundred ever becomes so
proficient in music that she can use it as a
breadwinninG pursuit. There never was a
great female composer. A few women are
gifted with melodious voices and earn large
SUMS of money by singing in public. But
not one step in the progress of the science
or the art of music from the age of Pales-
trina to the age of Chopin can be set down
to the credit of the sex.
Women follow music as a pastime, for
the qualification of their W senses and in
a wild idea that music is a road which
leads to the door Of the masculine heart,
and they devote to it time and potential
energy which otherwise bestowed might
make women really the equals of men.
We thus do II girls an injustice of which
it is impossible to exaggerate the enormity.

More Bonds Approved.


The board of railroad commissioners
at their meeting yesterday approved
elevator bonds a%ggregating s1S8,0OO,
making q total amount of bonds ap-
proved so far this year of s428,0OO. When
all the bonds are in it is expected they
will foot up to exceed 100000, as against
100000 last year.
In view of the unusual amount of
track shipping this year, and the uncer-
tainty that exists in the minds of ship
pers as to the reliability of many of the
commission men soliciting consignments
from this state, a number of these COM
mission houses have voluntarily pre-
sented bonds TO the board to indemnify
shippers against loss. Though the mat
ter IS outside the jurisdiction of the
commissioners they have agreed to &C.
cept all such bonds submitted to them,
and to announce the of such
houses as execute bonds, through the
state press. At yesterdays meeting a
number of these bonds were received.
The board will meet in two weeks in
Fargo to approve all bonds presented.

The Religious Denominations.

In the order of their numerical

fist, 1900. 900; Presbyterian, 1900, 900;
Lutheran, 1850, 900: the rest of the Prot
estant communions. counted together,
about 5000, 900. The Presbyterians com
prise less than one-tenth of the total
Protestant membership, but the sub
stance of the doctrine Of the Westmin-
ster confession is the faith of about one
half.-New York Sun.

70 ONE WHO GAVE 1T.

~Only a woman's hair" There was no name
Upon the slender packet, and they blame
The man who would not bare for all to view
The soul of her who trusted him; he knew
To whom belonged that curl oksoftest hair,
And thus he wrote, determined to leave there
No trace which to the world might ever show
Who was the woman that loved him so.
all who love have relics; on my heart
There rests a locket, and l never part
By day or night with one small ress of hair,
Yet must l tell the world who placed it there
Within the locket; call on all to see
My greatest treasure; say twas given to me
By one | love. who loves me not again,
And show to curious eyes my love is vain?
And must l own to all that when l wake
I find my hand close clasps it for the sake
OF one from whom l took that tress of hair
Which now is mine, say that l breathe g
prayer
That God will bless and keep youall your life.
In sun and shade, in joy and peace and strife?
l hold the world has nothing here to do;
It shall not come between my soul and you.
Like the great Dean, l keep your name apart;
You only know what rests upon my heart.

Fighting Among Amorous Animals.

Among the lower animals sexual &C.
lection prompts combats which often
end only with the death Of the weaker
rival. Male black snakes are apt not
only to kill, but to swallow a vanquished
competitor for the favors Of a dusky
charmer, and the champion bucks of the
oryx antelope use their sharp horns to
stab the p%retenders who venture to chal-
lenge their supremacy. The males Of the
yellow breasted pine mink have been
known to tumble out of a high tree top
in the blind fury of their courtship COM
bats. The cocks of the Alpine mountain
grouse neither see nor hearin their eager
ness to demolish a rival and have thus
been actually taken alive, struggling in
the very hands of their ~captor-not to
escape, but to finish their work of venge-
ance.-San Francisco Chronicle.
