Not For the s'Wizard."

Fake or no fake, the artificial
rain business is to have a thorough
test in South Dakota. The coun-
ties of Brown, Sphinx and perhaps
Marshall, have contracted with an
alleged rain maker, who has lmpar-
ted his secret to two men in each Of
the counties, who are to conduct
the operations. The "wizard"with
whom the contract has been made
is the n who was in the employ
Of the Chicago, Rock Island &
Pacific railway last season, and he
has a proposition to re-enter the
service of the corporation as rain
maker this season. The question
of the possibility of rain being pro-
duced by human means is one on
which intelligent people differ and
the matter is still an open question.
Ihe reSultl n these counties Will
settle the matter so far as this me.
thod is concerned at least. Each
of these counties paid the sum of
$3.50 in cash and are to pay an
equal amount next fall if the crops
IN each county average thirteen
bushels -wheat presumably being
the crop understood. If crops are
uniformly good for the three years
following this year each county is
to pay the sum of $500 yearly, max

county If the test proves satisfac.

DwartinE Tree. In Jnpan.

The pines may truly be considered the most important of all trees m Japan, and great care is taken in their cultivation and preservation They are generally grown from seed. and great care is taken to select the choicest quality of seed. In the spring of the second year, when the seed hngs are about eight inches in height, they are staked with bamboo cares and tied with rice straw, the plants being bent in different desirable shapes. In the next fall they are transplanted to richer soil and are well fertilized.
 In the following spring the plants are restaked and twisted and tied in fanciful forms. This mode of treat ment is given until the seventh year. when the trees will have assumed fairly large proportions, the branches being trained in graceful forms and the foliage like small crowds of dense green. The plants are now taken up and placed in pots 1i feet in diane ter and are kept we'll watered every succeeding year Great care must be taken to keep new shoots pinched back. After another three years of this treatment the trees are virtually dwarfed, there being no growth ereafter.-Garden and Forest.

Aby DR- MILLER, Health Officer of Prescott l
 A person with diphtheria should never be allowed to sit upright, no matter how mild the attack may be this rule should be rigidly adhered to; the danger of paralysis of the heart and instant death are too great to warrant any risk.
 The room in which one is to be cared for during an attack of any contagious disease, should be as devoid of drapery as possible; car pets, pictures, curtains, portieres, and all hangings should be removed before contamination, and before the patient is put to bed if possible. Never send book, paper, or letter through the mails, or send coin or paper money that has been handled by the patient. In a word, avoid all communication in every way that would be likely to spread the dis ease.
 To disinfect, the following rules should be followed: All garments, clothes, papers, or bed linen, blank cts, etc, should be burned. More valuable articles may be disinfected and kept. Articles that will not be injured by bleaching may be boiled for an hour in a solution of zinc, f ozs., common salt, 2 oZs., to each gallon of water used. To disinfect the room, hang out or spread out all articles that cannot be treated with the zinc solution, leaving the bedstead and other furniture in the in the room. Close all openings in the room tightly; then, for ever 1000 cubic feet of air space, burn 2 or 244 pounds of sulphur, using iron pans or kettles for the purpose (do not use tin psns), supporting the vessel on brick to avoid fire. Ignite the sulphur by using live coals or a little alcohol and match. Leave the room quickly, close the door and subject the room to the sulphur fumes for six hours, after which open the doors and windows and air thoroughly before occupying the room. DR. J. MILLER.

I've heard the prayers of many lands. In forests dim. on desert sands,
 Ana on the wild, tumultuous ocean, when waves were rolling mountain high 10 near the storm kings sullen cry,
 Ah1 nAshing in a restless motion The lightning leaped across the sky. I've heard quick prayers in battles drcad When many precious souls were sped
 In ntful gleam of sullen flashing through red ming rift of angry blade Or rent by doleful bullets made.
 Or shells demoniAcal crashing Through trembling wood and war swept

 But sweetestiof all prayers I've heard sweeter than song of spring glad bird, And purer than the soul of roses Eager to deck the brow of May, When life IS young and hearts are gay, And such fond mem'ry now disoloses Unto the shining smile of day A little angel robbed in white, Upon the threshold Of the night
 And by mother fondly kneeling. With folded hands and dropping head And low voice, curving lips of red,
 The stainless soul in thought revealing. And, To! the loving message sped

4 story of Ed. Drew. skin and Prowess.

4 story of Ed. Drsw's skill and Prowess.
 Patsey McQuilken who has lived in the territory for years, speaking yesterday of the steer-tying contest said:
 ~Why, knew that Doc Goodin would have to get hump on him self if he beat Ed. Drew. That Ed. Drew is without doubt the greatest expert in the world--I saw him get away with a fellow about twelve years ago at the Hooker ranch in the Sulphur Springs valley who pulled 8 Winchester and threw it down on him intending to kill him.
 Ed was on horse back and didn't have a gun, but he got down his rope and whiz it went around the neck of the fellow with the Win chester, at the same time put spurs to his horse and went the fellow over the limb of a tree and there would have been a coroner's inquest and all that sort of thing if it hadn't been for Billy Whalen or Dan Ming l don't know which. ."-Republican

The Indians Dc It.

From the breezy west a slang phrase has come. When a man turns himself loose, treats everybody he meets, squanders his money with hangers on and the absolute and in fact has a regular debauch, he is said to be giving a potlatch. The term originates among the Indians of the Pacific coast, where, when a brave is in bad odor, he turns all his prop erty into meet and drink and asks the tribe to feast with him. The re- suit is bankruptcy, but renewed pop ularity. This sort of banquet is called 'potlatch. New York Her ald
