A. Mrs. Watson, of Washington, was
taken in charge by officers yesterday,
and sent to jamestown, where she claim
ed to have friends. The lady was quite
aged, and came in from the west Satur-
day afternoon. She said she was to
have been met here by friends, but she
finally concluded she was at the wrong
place, and that Jamestown was her
proper destination. From appearances,
the lady was slightly "off," and she
seemed to have a fondness for "a little
black bottle, which made her at times
rather irrational.
A study of the TR1BUNE's weather

ceptional a month has been the one just
ending, in the way of temperature. It
has been a month, beginning with a de-
iciency in temperature, then character
lied by an excess and ending at just the
average for the past twenty years. Up
to January 9th, the temperature for the
month was ia degrees below the aver
age for the first nine days in the same
month for twenty years. Here began a
change, and the temperature rose, until

until to-day, there has been a deficiency
of l27 degrees, making the temperature

desire to call the attention of county
commissioners to chapter 81 Of the Laws
of 1891, which prescribes the manner of
destroying "Noxlous Weeds;;" the Russian
cactus is named as one of these weeds, and
it is under this law that the state cactus
committee will frame their plan for Joint
action on the part of our state authorities
for its determination. County commission.
ers should hold themselves in readiness to
move promptly and III concert with the
committee when ready for action.
l hope the press will discourage publica-
tions claiming the cactus as a blessing to
the state, If every farmer in the cactus
district would discontinue the growing of
gram, and had the money to fence in his
farm, and buy sheep and sell wool at 10
cents per pound, it might aid him in rid
ding his farm of the cactus. But our farm
ers have not the money to buy sheep, nor
can they afford to miss a grain crop and
support their families; so it is worse than
nonsense for men TO talk about utilizing
the weed, or exterminating it by pastur-
age.
l am in correspondence with our sena-
tors, and the United States commissioner
of agriculture, and am encouraged to be-
lieve that we will get a national appropri-
alton; if so, with prompt action on the
part Of our county officers, we nay be able
to get rid of the cactus, the worst of all
noxious weeds.
l have assurances of hearty cooperation
from the governors of Nebraska, South Da-
kota and Minnesota. d

Start a Buffalo Farm.

jamestown Alert: Wells brothers re-.
port that their buffalo COW, the remain
ing one of two captured two years age,
is now fully domestlcated and as docile,
it not more SO, than one of their mich
COWS. During the summer she runs
loose in the pasture with the other
stock. The buffalo is becoming quite a
pet and will follow a person around.
The buffalo's hair has reassumed it's
healthy and glossy appearance. No
other shelter has been furnished this
winter except a rough shed which partly
protects the animal from the winds. Her
heavy hair forms a warm protecting coat
which not even the winds can pene-
trate. The brothers are contemplating
the purchase of a buffalo bull and start
ing a herd.

A Practical Joke,

- . a ohOA &.
A good story is told on Executive
Manager Dickey up at the capitol. 1t
seems that some time ago, MI. Dickey
wrote Superintendent Eisenhuth, stating
that he had collected a number of books
at the Worlds Fair, which he proposed
to send to her for the use of her depart
ment. He enclosed a typewritten list,
covering three or four pages, of the vol
umes sent, and Mrs. Eisenhuth was
pleased in anticipation of the receipt of
what she thought would form a valuable
addition to the state library and the de-
partment of instruction. The other day
a little pine box, addressed to the State
of North Dakota, arrived at the capitol,
and, as usual, was taken into the office of
the secretary of state to be opened. It
contained a number Of the pamphlets,
used by the several states and countries
to advertise their In addition
to these, there were several tobacco
sacks, filled with nothing more valuable
than Chicago soil, and scattered about
through the whole was a pack of we'll
worn and greasy playing cards, which
looked as though they might have seen
many a quiet game of sinch or seven-up
i n some nook Of the fair grounds or the
plaisance. 1t developed that this was
the box intended for Mrs. Eisenhuth.
She wrote to Manager Dickey, stating
the "hnd' which had been made. Mr..
Dlckey says he is ~innocent-he packed
the box himself-and how the cards got
in with the other things is a mystery
unless some n played him a practical
joke.

LURED BY BABIES.
How British Sportsmen Hunt Croco-

I'VE used to have great sport in India
going out after crocodiles with Hindu
babies for bait, " said an ex-offcer of the
British army The baby wasn't baiued
on a hook like a minnow or a fishwOrm, but
simply secured on the river bank so that
it couldn't creep or tOddle away or tum
bic into the river Some babies don't
like their being made crocodile bait of,
but that fact increased their value to the
sportsman, for then they yelled and
made great noise, which was just what
the crocOdiles were waiting to hear, and
they d come hurrying from all directions
to have a chance at the babies.
Where did we get these babies for
bait From their mothers. All the fell

do was to noise broad his intention, and
it wasn't long before native women would
flock in with their babies to be rented
out for bait. The ruling price per head
for the young heather was about 6 cents
for the day. Some mothers required a
guarantee that their offspring should be
returned safe and sound, but the most of
them eXacted no such agreement. The
babies were brought back all right, as a
rule, but once in a while some sportsman
was trifie slow with his rife, or made a
