THE GRAIN PALACE EXPOSITION.

The exposition at the grain palace Just
closed has been a far greater success
than the management hored for. The
people OF Aberdeen took hold OF the mat
ter in their characteristic, go-aheadstyle,
and left nothing undone to interest II
amuse the visitors, who We're there IN
vast numbers all the week. The two
notable evenings were Wednesday and
| Thursday when the palace was packed
and famed so full OF sight-seer5 that
many were turned away who could not
get even standing room. The palace
was beautifully decorated inside with
grains and grasses grown In the lminedl-
| ate vicinity OF Aberdeen. There were a
few county exhibits, but the main Tea
ture was the covering OF the walls, ceal-
ing and balconies with grains INT
GRASSES weaved in the most artistic man.
ner. 1t il nearly impossible to describe
! the different booths, fountains, miniature
irrigated farms, grist mills, ETC., on exhi-
bition. They must all be seen to be ap-
preciated. They reflect great credit on
| the exhibitors in every department. The
Iowa state band was a feature OF amuse
ment that will not soon be forgotten by
visitors. 1t is one OF the very best aggre-
cations OF artistic musical talent III the
Northwest, and added largely to the
| pleasure of every entertainment. The
Aberdeen Choral Union, with its 100
voices, composed OF the best musical
talent OF the city and led by W. +. L.
Bushnell, was enjoyed at every appear
ance. The colored quartette from the
twin cities was another taking featurein
the amusement line. All-in-all Aberdeen
with its state fair and grain palace en-
positions, together with performances at
the opera house each evening, has con-
tributed one oi the best weeks OF enter
tainment ever experienced in the state,
and the most pleasant feature is they
were all successes financially. The nan
agement of the grain palace deserve, and
will receive, the hearty thanks and con-
congratulations OF every one OF the thou
sands Of visitors.

To Exterminate Wolves.

A meeting of cattlemen was held re-
Gently in Jackson county, s. H., to dis
cuss the matter OF Kidding the ranges OF
the numberless wolves which now infest
them, much to the annoyance and dam
age of the cattlemen. 1t has finally been
decided to assess each owner OF cattle
or horses one cent per head, the money
thus raised to be converted into a fund
and paid out in bounties of So for each
gray VOLTS scalp brought in. This plan
is believed to be the only solution OF this
question, and it is believed it will result
in the number OF wolves being greatly
diminished. Great damage has been
done by wolves on the ranges OF South
Dakota this season, and these pests are
practically the only serious obstacle
against which the stockmen have to con-
tend.

From many observations and expert
ments M. Phi. Lenard finds that drops
of water falling upon water or wet bod
les generate electricity, the wattr be
comes electrified positively, and the gas
escaping negatively electrified from the
force of the fall, and light impurities in
the water diminish the effect considera-
bly,. The essential conditions of cleo
~triication are the conclusions among
the drops of themselves and against
the wet rock, no effect being due to
the waters fall through the air and its
dispersion by it. A Jet of water fall
ing from an insulated tank to an insu-
lated pail electrified the latter positive
ly, while the negative electriflcation of
the surrounding air grew to several
hundred volts"
