The sheep business has a much
brighter outlook especially in
North Dakota. The people who
first. engaged in the business in
this state were, as a rule, mex
perienced and had many discour-
agements. These adversities,
coupled with free American wool,
financially ruined many of the
sheep raisers of the state. But
the experience was good, and
successful fock-masters are now
to be found throughout the length
and breadth of North Dakota,
where is to be found the finest
wool and mutton producing gra-
zing in the United States. The
prospect of protection for Amer
lean wool in the near future also
gives new impetus to the indus
try, and on all hands good bust
ness men can be found who are
ready to invest their capital in
sheep, placing them out on shares
for a term of years with thrifty
farmers and ranchers. The weth-
er bands are usually hired kept
by the year at SO much a head.

Mrs. Jeffers' Statement.

1 wish to inform the public that
my first husband. Annie Whidden's
father, died and was buried in Mid.
die Stewiack, Novia Scotia, eight
years ago. Any IL doubling this
may write and enquire of Postmaster
John Dickey or Rev. Edward Smith,
Presbyterian minister, both of that
place. Rumor has it that cruel
treatment caused Annie Whidden's
departure, but I stand ready to prove
that entirely false. I was not at
home when the girl left, and had not
been for eighteen days previous to
her leaving. When I last talked
with her she seemed perfectly happy.
Had they told me she WAS dead /
could not have been more shocked.
During my absence a Mrs. Fowler
took up her abode at my house and
made herself my daughters constant
companion. 1t was she who started
the report that my daughter had
eloped with Mr.. Small, a report which
is entirely untrue.

ing a horse from Eva Graham.

any animal regardless of its val
ue. MI. Simpson assisted in the
prosecution and the defendant
was defended by Messrs. Carpen-
ter and Boucher. The testimony
showed that last September the
the defendant went off with the
horse which he roped west OF
town, and was caught about a
month after in Montana. The
jury was out but a short time and
returned a verdict of guilty. The
defendant has not yet received
his sentence.
Jesse Masc. alias Jesse Linsley,
was next tried. He went off with
Kelly and was arrested at the
same time. The horse he took
belonged, or was in the posses.
sion Of Charlie Wyatt. The jury
