Change The law.

:H Jamestown Capital: The indiscrin1inate

Dakots by Minnesota sportsmen. renews
the demand for change of the game law
of this state to cnnform to the Minnesota
statute. As it now stands vast hoard of
men from eur neighboriDg commonwealth
take advantage of 10 days shooting here,
diminishing the supply Of game. and re-
turn home in time to open the season
here, Sept. lat. Another objection to the
present law is that the "open season"
commences right at time when farmers
are too busy TO share in the general enjoy
ment, or TO partici pate in the benet'ta
They feed the chickens for other people
to kill.
The jamestown Capital is right and we
believe three fourths of the farmers and
denisens of country districts OF the state
will not only sustain ti1e Capitals senti
rnents, but make more radical changes in
the law. Every body heraabouts know
that even by tho 18th, of September the
prairie chicken is not full grown, let alone
the 2oth day Of August, when many are
haxdly week out from their shells, and
none ard weaned from their hen mother.
Tho middle of September is! !early enough
flor the game season open and this.. will
give sportsmen chance to diversity in
the shooting and also give the farmers q
chance to take hand in the sport.

ker,t Murder Again.

From indications at present, there may
be some new developments of starting
character in the mystery surrounding the
killing of Mrs. NJ. R. Kent over in Man
dan last March. It will be remembered
that Kent disappeared shortly before the
death Of his wife and has been heard from
but once since, when he was arrested in
Nebraska, and escaped while Sheriff Bin
genhimer of Morton county was en- route
east after him. It will be remembered
also. that the shooting was done by one
Swidensky, a hired man at the Kent place,
who claimed the shooting was occidental.
Swidensky has bevn in Jail ever since, and
nov there is well founded rtmor that
.swidehsky has made confession In the
matter. which, is said implicates Kent and
himself in the murder Of the wife Of Kent
How extensive is, or exact the nature Of.
the confession, cannot be told, but it is
claimed the sheriff has been apprised by
Swideusky of Kent's whereabouts, and
has gone after him.. It's said the missing
man u in Colorado. Bismarck Tribune

Her Last Half Year.

Heroes do not always die on battlefelds:
We oil know that, but now and then the
truth of the statement is exampli6ed in
manner that is forceful. One evening
there came into the room where I sat
beautiful woman tastefully attired. Her
eyes were unnaturally brilliant, and in her
cheeks there famed color like stain Of
blood. 1 recognised her at once as a we'll
known and highly successful teacher in
one of Chicago's public schools. There
was something about her appearance that
surprised me, for heretofore upon the
occasions when we had met she had been
notable for the plainness, not to say the
shabbiness, of her attire. The rich velvet
of the cape she wore and the feathers on
her elegant hat caused me to exclaim:
"Why, how handsome you look! What
have you struck"
''Death y was the answer. The doctors
have told me to-day that have an incur-
able disease and cannot possibly live
longer than six months. have scrimped
myself all my life to save money to buy
books and cultivate my mind. am
through with all that. Now am going
to take hand at the nj ,terial pleasures
II have but half year to live, IN live
royalty
Since that time she has wasted rapidly,
but the room where she lies is full Of
flowers and objects of beauty. The gowns
she wears arc creations Of beauty, and she
allows no mourning nor any allus,on to
her fate in her presence. She faces death
with an absolute heroism that makes one
want 70 applaud rather than to weep.
This u,rnifeststton Of moral courage
might BIZ, but there II something about it
which makes the blood tingls a Bit

State Board of Equal,zat,on.

State Board of Equalization.
The State Board of Equalization which
was in session at Bismarck last week has
made some radical changes IN the ASSESS
ment returns of the various counties. The
changes are of two classes, viz one in the
direction of general reduction of all per-
sonal property valuations and the other
in the matter of considerable increase
in the value of NIL real estate.
In the third district comprising all of
the Missouri slope counties and all
unorgnnizcd ones. the assessment OIL stock
is as follows:
Horses, three years and over, $34.
Under years old. SIS.
Range horses are as usual classed sepa-
rately. and their value was fixed i'll several
districts. as follows:
First district $25.
Second district $40.
Third district $l5.
This rating is s per cent. less than that
Of last year.
Cattle were equalized by the board as
follows:
Under 2 years old. Sc.
Cows wears old and over, $12.
Range cattle. 500. ',
All other cattle, $18.
The valuation of-sheep was 6xed by s::,e
board at 81 per head, and of hogs ut $3
per head. the value of the latter the same
rs that of last year. All other personal
property was confirmed as returned by
county boards of equalization.

INCREASE IN RECEIPTS.
Results Looked For is the Bill Be-
comes n Law.

Washington, Aug. 14.-TreasUry Off
Gals anticipate a very great increase
in the receipts from internal revenue
sources within the next ten days, in
case the president allows the tariff bill
to become a law
At Pekin, Ill. the receipts yesterday
reached $240. 900. and in the district of
Maryland they amounted tn $4,000.
Large amounts Of whisky and spirits
at all the great distillery centres have
been regauged at the solicitation of
owners, and as it cannot be regauged
again. 1t is assumed that practically all
of it will be drawn, if possible, before
the bin becomes q. law. During the
next ten days the internal revenue re-
ceiptS are expected to reach 81, 500, 900 a
day. The custom officials OF the treas
Try expect also a. marked increase in
customs receipts from ROW on, and
particularly during the next month or
so. Large quantities of goods now
held in the bonded warehouses at New
York, Boston and other learge seaport
cities will be withdrawn as soon as
possible after che bill becomes a ;aw.
TO meet the Demands of the fall trade.
Dry goods and furnishing goods and

TREATY WITH CHINA.
Ratified BY the Senate it Now Only
Awaits the Action of the Powers
of the FIOwery Kingdom.

washington, Aug. 1.-THE treaty with
CHINA, which was ratified by the action
OF the Senate, prohibits the coming of
Chlnese laborers to the United States for
the next ten years upon the conditions
specified.
The restriction is not to apply to the
return OF such laborerS who have lawful
wives, children or parents in this coun-
try, or who have property here of the
Value OF $1,000 or debts equal to the
amount due them. The departing China
men are to secure, before leaving. a Ger
tiflc2te from the collector of customs of
the district from which he leaves tes-
tliylng TO the fact that he has deposited
YIN fai the collector description of his
famlly, property or credits and this GER
Iincate IS to entitle him to return to the
United States. In case the description
proves to be false, the right to return
within one year but in exceptional cases
may be extended for another year.
II is especially agreed that the provi-
SONS shall not affect the right of CHI
chants or travellers for curiosity Cr pleas
ure, but not laborers. of conlin;: tc the
United States and residing therein. TO
entitle, such Chinese subjects to aGlnfs-
their government, or the GOV yrnment
where they last resided, from the diplo-
natic or consular representative of the
United states in the country or port
1t is also agreed that Chinese laborers
shall continue to enjoy the privilege OF
transit across the territory of the United
States IN the course Of their journey tc
or from other countries, subject to such
regulations by the government of the
United States as may he necessary tc
prevent such privilege of transit being
abused.
The secretary also guarantees Chinese
residents of the United States all the pro.
lection afforded to citizens of the most
favored nations, except the right to be.
come naturalized citizens.
The Chinese government valves all oh.
lection to the requirement of the United
States law that Chinese residents shall be
registered and. recipro2ally, this govern.
ment consents that China shall make the
same requirement of Americans residing
in China.
While the treaty is made for a period
of only ten years, it is provided that il
may be extended for another like term OF
years unless either country shall give no.
tice six months before the expiration OF
the ten year limitation of desire &c
The treaty now requires the ratification
of China, but it is presumed that the
minister here is fully empowered by his
government to act for it in this matter
and 1t is said that the notifications viii
be exchanged in few days.

PROFESSIONAL CYCLISTS HERE.
Jack Prince, the World Renowned
Rider and Albert shock

Rider, and Albert Shock.
Jack Prince, the world renowned pro-
fessional wheelman, arrived here last
night with Albert Schoek, the long dis
lance champion. Prince is well known
here, having been seen in exhibitions
when he was the wonder of the cycling
world. He has for some years been in
the professional ranks, and has created
q. sensation in his races against horses.
He doesn't look a day older that when
he was last in Salt Lake, and has the
same marvellous physical development
as of old, when he held more cham
pionships than one would care to count.
Jack says the safety suits him just as
we'll as the ordinary used to, and claims
that there is just as much speed in him
as ever
Albert Schoek, who travels with Jack.
is the man who won the championship
in the late six days race at New
York, defeating a big field and making
1000 miles in 142 hours. The men are
on their way to San Francisco, and
after concluding engagements in the
west, go to Paris to try conclusions
with the French champion. They will
remain here a few days, and will try
to arrange a 100 mile relay race against
horses. They will go against six run
ming horses, with two Jockeys, who
can relieve each other every mile, while
the wheelmen relieve each other every
ten miles. Or they will run against three
horses in a fifty mile relay race. They
would prefer, of course, to go against
wheelmen, but being professionals, that
is impra bic.
