Leon Townsend. who runs farm

small flock Of less than 100 sheep but
they are somewhat remarkable in show,

got the original bunch, they sheared but
five pounds, the Aock was run down and
the wool Of poor quality. The losses
also we're heavy. Little by little, how.
ever, they have been graded up with
Shropshlres until today the flock is in
excellent shape. The breeding ewes
sheared nine pounds each this spring,
the heaviest Of any aeeoes yet reported
and the sheep make good profitable
muttons. Last year the flock produced
79c Of wool per sheep which this year
will be increased il fair price for the
wool is realized. The losses in
the flock have been reduced to a min

The Biters Bitten.
From Mondays Daily.

Two young men lie IN their rooms
over Beck's clothing store in an extreme
ly dilapidated condition the result Of an
over dose Of doctored whiskey they
drank last night. 1t was not until this
afternoon. after night whose horrors
they will not soon forget, that they were
IN condition to say uch concerning
their escapsde. A physician worked
over them part Of the night and re-
lieved them somewhat.
The young men, whose nance are
withheld for the present, are connected
with circumstance which it may be
exceedingly difficult for them to clear
themselves of should criminal action
against them be begun-whlch is not
Improbable. It seems that they IN
duced two young ladies to 60 boating
with them last evening gong up the
river to Elliott's park. Soon after the
start half pint bottle half filled with q
dark oolored liquid was produced 1t was
called whiskey the girls asked to
have some. They very promptly told
the boys to throw the bottle into the
river. To show the girls that the
whiskey was all right the boys took q
pull piece, and finally emptled the
bottle on the ely. Not long after
ward the girls suspected something
wrong from the in boys action and asked
to be taken back to the landing That
was tho last seen of these young men
until O'Clock this morning when they
were brought in more dead than alive by
Josiah Plerson. Medical aid was pro-
cured and some relief secured.
One OF tho men acknowledged that Q
drug of which he knew little had been
put in the whiskey-whst for he would
not state but for purpose evidently.
The poisonous character Of the dope he
experienced later in excruciating cramps
Of the stomach. For time it seemed
to be doubtful whether or not they
would pull through.
Whether criminal action will be
brought against the boys is not yet full
ly declded upon. A feeling exists in
certain quarters that they should be
prosecuted.

CRITICISM UNJUST.
Facts do not Sustain Charges
Against the State Land
Commissioner.

AAooo W ou0 oG0Go I6uO uopbrGmout 0uO
the present land commissioner, Hon.
Geo. 81. Winterer. The burden OF the
criticism seems to have been not only
upon the so-cslled large and unnecessary
expenses that have been attached TO the
work of the Office, and which an effort
has been made to show are without au-
thority Of law, but the criticism has in
cluded the personal conduct and habits
OF the leading attaches OF the ofice, etc.
With this latter criticism the public has
nothing to do, as far ss the management
of the state Office is concerned, and it is
merely bit of personal gossip incident
to the discussion of public men in every
state capital and in which there is more
politics than truth.
The statement that the land depart
ment has grossly exceeded the expe nses
just and necessary for its management
do not seem to be warranted by facts.
Land Commissioner Wlnterer has pre-
pared large and complete index for the
use OF the Office by which the descrjp-
ton, location and amount of land that
belongs to the public institutions of the
state can be readily found. Heretofore
this information was scattered through
out the various. books of the Cfioe and
the time lost IN endesvoring to secure
information wanted in these particular
items was very great, beside the incon-
venience and uncertainty OF the attempt.
The work Of preparing these indies was
done by the regular Office clerks paid out
Of the regular appropriation for clerk
hire. And instead OF spending half .
day to find necessary information about
parcel Of land belonging to the state,
the same can now be had in moment
by turning to the proper index.
In addition to the apparent good
Judgment in the preparation of the
above work the Office has made some
valuable selections for the state institu-
tions and by doing 80 have saved the
state large amount OF government
realty which would have been replaced,
il selections had not been promptly
made, by inferior land in other localities.
1t is charged that the expenses of per-
sonal examination of this land are ex-
cessive. The records show that 10000
acres have been selected and the fling
fees paid out OF the regular sppropria-
ton made for that purpose by prior leg
islation. The personal examination fees
have been reasonable and the Law specl-
fies what they shall be. The land
selected has been apportioned to the
various institutions of the state It lies
in the counties of Ramsey, Towner, Mel
son and Cavalier. IT the selections had
not been made before the appropriation
expired by law, January l, last, the ex-
cellent quality OF the land could not have
been obtained. The cost per acre for the
selection of this land is about two cents
and the appropriations for which ex-
pense have been taken, have all been
duly made by preceding legislatures by
law specifically authorized in an act
for the appropriations for examination
of lands and for amonnt OF Office fees"

Contrary to the croakings of all the
wise-acres, James ONeill has found an
other Monte Cristo." Its name is THE
Courier of Lyons" its country, France,
and its history one of repeated triumphs.
1t concerns one Lesurques, a respectable
citizen of Lyons, who lived ammo 1896
the period of the great revolution. This
same Lesurques was favored by fortune
in many respects. He was rich, honora-
BILE and had a lovely daughter who had
wits. He had one misfortune, however;
he resembled a criminal called Dubosc.
This resemblance was so striking that il
nearly cost him his head. A postllion was
murdered on a lonely night at a wayside
inn by Dubosc and his comrades. Lee
surques Is mistaken for Dubosc, appre-
hended and sentenced to be guillotined.
His daughter and her fiancee believe, of
course, in Lesurques' innocence. Through
unremitted effort they succeed in estab-
fishing proof of his innocence at the last
moment. The real culprit is caught and
the mystery is finally cleared up.

lily convince every one of the merit of
the story for dramatic purposes. The
chief interest in the presentation lies in
the fact that Mr. O'NenI plays both NJ
Lesurques and NJ. Dubosc on the stage
He will present this new and remarka-
BILE character at the opera house on this
evening while Monte Cristo" will be

empowered to secure furniture sufficient
to fit the rooms up in shape for hold

estimated, will not exceed $50.
The club has adopted the monogram
of the letters A. b. c., which stand for

purple and a very light blue ribbon.
- Applications werO received from four
wheelmen and the same were referred
to the membership committee to be re-

An excursion down the valley is
planned for Sunday afternoon, to start
from the Auditorium at 1880 o'clock
sharp. The destination of the club is
indefinite but many Of them purpose
going to Warm Springs. If there is no
change in the weather the roads will be
