A curious case of house moving was
recently witnessed in Oregon. A man
who owned residence at Seattle, which
cost him five thousand dollars to erect,
removed to Olympia, and did got have
sufficient funds to build another house.
He bought u lot and concluded to remove
the building he owned at Seattle.
Everyone laughed at him. but he per-
sisted. Rolling the house down to the
river. he loaded it upon scow and it
was soon at Olympia, a distance of about
sixty miles. Then he had it rolled
upon his lot, and, strange to say not a
timber was strained, nor even piece of
furniture broken, although he had not
removed the contents before starting the
house upon its unusual journey.

From various sources it is learned that
never in the history .of North Dakota
We're so many new settlers coming to this
state as the present year. The records
OF the Grand Forks land office show that
during the first week in June over 5000
acres located in Cavalier county were
filed upon by the incoming of new Sc

Is the Silver Sentiment AbatingP

Not long since most Of the Twin City
!ailies announced under .'scare" heads
that the silver agitation had reached its
flood and was beginning to abate. The
ground fer their iubilation being dis
patch from Memphis chronicling the fact
that one man, a banker, by the way, who
had decided leanings towards silver, had
since the "sound money! convention
announced his change Of heart and gone
brck in the fold. When our gold friends
begin to count their converts and tele'
graph their accessions the assumption is
\ sound one that their case is desperate.
The times are doing the talking and with
greater eject than all the Literature
Wall street can send out. The Chicago
Record, after devotlng space to the ablest
advocates on both sides, opened poll to
arrive with some degree of accuracy at
the prevailing sentiment in Chicago.
The voting is done by means of coupons
published in the morning edition, and
the voter must give his present address
and also his residence at the last election.
Both siles have judges to see that every
vote is counted and credited properly.
As far as the ballot has progressed, the
proposition to remonetize silver is re-
ceiving two votes to one, This is a fact
the press association are not anxious to
Telegraph, yet it is just as legitimate
news as the announcement referred to
in the opening of this paragraph.
Setting Hens.
During tie summer .nonths the ques-
iicn will often be asked, chow to break
up my hens that want to sit" We have
found by experiment that it pays to set
them whenever they want to sit a
flock of hens will produce more eggs
during the early fall and winter when
allowed to sit and raise brood during
the summer than by breaking them up.
When hen lays out her litter Of eggs,
nature teaches her to sit. 1t is folly to
war against nature. When large flocks
are kept it is not always possible to set
all hens that want to sit. But there is
aa effectual way of breaking them up
without abusing them. Whipping them
pff the nests and shifting them up with
out food or water is cruel to say the
least. The wonder is that they survive
the harsh treatment. A broody On is
always fat. The first step is to reduce
her flesh. Allow her to remain OH the
nest for week. DO not starye her, give
her plenty of fresh water and food.
Do not give her any corn. At the end
of a week she viii! be reduced in flesh.
Then place her in yard with vigor-
pus cock and feed and water regularly.
4 week in this confinement will usually
effect cure and she will soon COM

LABOR IMMIGRATION.

An act passed by the Councils on
Thursday is designed to do away
with the irresponsible importation
OF contract labor. Rid OF its legal
phraseology the new law simply pro-
hibits any person, company or cor
poration from bringing laborers
into the country under contract Of
service, excepting upon the written
approval by the Board Of Immigra-
ton Of the contracts under which
such laborers are to be introduced.
The penalty for importation OF labor
contrary to the law is to be $500 for
each offense, and the master OF any
vessel bringing laborers contrary to
the law shall forfeit 500 for every
alien laborer so brought. The act
does not apply to immigration Of
laborers under the provisions Of the
treaty with Japan. These provi-
sions are sufficient in themselves to
prevent the irresponsible introduce
ton OF contract laborers.

OUR NEW FORM.

To-day, the thirteenth anniversary
OF its birth, the DAILY BULLETIN is
enlarged again, and changes from a
four-page to an eight-page form.
This change is in consequence Of in
creased advertising patronage the
last quarter OF 1894. Although the
boom that then set in has been
checked by the revolution, it is con-
fdently believed by the BULLETIN
management that the raising Of mar
tial law will be followed by new
and prosperous era OF business &C.
tivity. The BULLETIN started in
printed form on February l, 1882,
having only five columns Of matter
OF which all was composed Of adver-
tisements but IL small local items.
Before appearing in print the BuLLE-
TIN had been tackled up in manu-
script in front OF j. w. Robertson
Il Co.'s bookstore. After a few
issues the back OF the sheet was also
printed. Upto No. Al Of the paper
it was furnished gratis, depending
for subsistence ON advertising. With
that number a price was charged,
beginning with rs cents month.
Although often denounced by people
who regard everything not to their
way OF thinking as wrong, the
BULLETIN has often had the satisiac-
ton Of receiving acknowledgements
from such people that they were
wrong when it was right. The efllux
Of time has often brought this paper
vindication OF views that had cost it
many friends. No Boosting OF the
morrow will be INDUCED in on this
occasion. The BULLETIN has in many
emergencies proved itself a leader
in newspaper enterprise and, al
though many formidable attempts
have been made to down it in COM
petition, it still lives

lock stitch, a ruffle must be
sewed with an easier stitch

China a Stone In Russia,s Sling.

China, III order to give security fo1
the loan, is going to mortgage the re-
oeipts of the maritime customs. They
will pay the coupon. Now, suppose
Japan threatens to renew the war with
China and to blockade the ports, and sc
stop the payment of customs dues. Rus
STA year ago might have taken up an
attitude of indifference and declared
that the matter was nothing to her. She
could not do that now. She would
have to consider whether japanese
war would not make her liable for the
coupon by stopping the payment of Gus
toms. II she decided that it would,
she must almost necessarily intervene
either to make China yield to Japan OF
else to prevent Japan from attacking
China.
In other words, the guarantee makes
Russia the arbiter Of the fate of China
for the next 80 years and moro and al
lows her-nay almost compels her-tc
say the final word in all China's diplo-
macy. sWe cannot, as guarantors Of
your loan, allow you to rush into bank
ruptcy." 1t is with these words that
the Russian ambassador at Picking will
be able to exercise veto ON all Chinese
foreign policy. The guarantee Of the
loan will then give Russia prerogative
vote in matters of external policy. II
is notice that, on the one hand, Russia
will not allow China to be conquered,
thus destroying her security for having
to make good her guarantee, and, Oh
the other, that China must conform te
the Russian standard of political CON
duct. London Spectator.

nrarrland,s Whipping Post.

Since the legislature of Maryland es-
tablished the whipping post in that
state for wife heaters, four husbands
have been lashed for brutally assaulting
their wives. One of those whipped was
colored, and the other three were white.
The act was passed at the session of
1882. The first man whipped was
Charles Foote, colored, who was con-
victed Of wife beating Nov. 20, 1882.
He was sentenced on the list of the fol-
lowing December to receive 10 lashes
and to be imprisoned 60 days. The
number of lashes was reduced to seven,
which was the number inflicted
1t was not until June, 1885, that the
whipping post was again used The sec
ond man received 20 lashes and the
third Is lashes. The last time the whip
ping post vas used was Oct. 8, 1890,
when man received IS lashes for as
saulting his wife. Since then there
have been number of cases in which
wives were assaulted by their husbands,
but there have been no convictions un-
der the statute prescribing the whipping
post as . punishmnt for the offense. -

A Maple Dies Of sunstroke.

In the last number of Meehan's
Monthly the editor tells of being sum
moned to hold an inquest over dead
sugar maple tree. 1t was supposed &c
have been destroyed by a leak in the
city gas main, near its roots, but an ex-
animation convinced Mr.. Meehan that
the tree had died literally from sun
stroke.
This maple had been planted ON the
street about 25 years and was some
four feet in girth. The trunk, how
ever, instead of being cylindrical, was
shaped like triangular prism, pecul-
iarity owing to the fact that on three
sides of it the inner bark and wood had
been killed, while the outer bark con-
tinued to cover up the injury, so that
the only living wood was at the angles
of the trunk. Practically, no more than
one-tbird of the surface of the trunk
was alive, and when the exceedingly
warm weather of last month came the
limited number of ducts were not suffi
cient to supply the moisture needed to
meet the rapid Transportation from SO
large surface of foliage; consequently
the leaves wilted and the tree died.
Whenever the trunk of tree takes on
this angular form it should be examined
under the bark, and if the flatter por-
tions are found dead the bark and the
decaying part of the wood should be
wholly cut away and the denuded part
painted to check the rotting. In time
healthy wood may grow over such a
scar, and the life of the tree may thus
be eventually saved.

The subject Of the prevention of death
from snake bite is one which has for
many years past engaged the attention
of the government of India. The annual
reports are interesting, but far from
pleasant reading. In 1891 the mortal
ity under this head was no fewer than
21.389; III 1892 it had fallen to 49,
025; in 1898 it rose again to 21,2f3.
In other words. in 1892, ont of every
1850 persons in India, one died of
snake bite; in 1898, out of 10, 424.
The fluctuations are probably acct
dental. but the state of affairs is real and
deplorable enough. OF the total num-
Der of deaths, almost exactly one-half
occurred in Bengal, (10,797); next
come the northwestern provinces and
Oudh f4,847), Madras, 1889, and
Bombay t1.l92)-all showing an in
crease on the preceding years figures
while the one province absolutely free is
the little province of Kurg, the small
est in India, hut still with a population
of l73, 600. Chambers Journal
