The Water.

The directors OF the irrigation m.
psny went up to Alpine yesterday to
look over their water prospects. They
found things in rather bad shape and
the bitches up that way in need OF re-
pairs. They have arranged to make a
better division OF the waters of Cove
creek That channel needs cleaning
out above the division gate or it may
flood Alpine. The Dry creek division
will leave the old creek bed high and
dry so they will put in "a dam. 1t will
be lumbe crib SO feet long, g feet
high and feet wide and be filled with
rock. The channel above the dam will
be cleaned out to keep the water from
spreading out so much.
To-day they will put IN a new head
gate above the city and double sand
gate so AS to make bett r. division OF
the water for the cit Y. They will also
begin work on the old creek channel
through town and in the field. This
will be fixed up in good shape so as t.
carry off the surplus water ii it comes
this way.

Home Duties of Indian Children.

There are home duties as we'll as
pleasures for the children. Boys are re-
quired to look after the ponies, to lend
hand i'll planting, to help i'll the har
vest, and they are often made to do &C
tive duty as scarecrows in the newly
planted field, where, like little Bopeep,
they fall fast asleep. The girls help to
gather wood, bring water and look after
the younger ones. AS they grow Older
they are taught to cut, sew and make
garments. In former days, the old Oma-
has say, no girl was considered mar
riageable until she had learned to tan
skins, make tents and clothing, prepare
meat for drying and could cultivate
corn and beans, while "a young man who
had not learned to make his own wea-
pons and to be skillful hunter was not
considered fitted to take upon himself

Fresh figs are not known Or appreci
ated in northern markets, and conse-
quently the demand is too limited to
encourage shipments. 1t seems doubt
full if the distant shipment Of fresh figs
will ever become profitable business.
The fruit is more perishable than any
other that is generally marketed. 1t can
be handled only by the most careful
and experienced persons, and even then
it is not in a condition to show its best
quality. Ripening in midsummer, when
the northern markets are crowded with
many well known fruits and not -heimes
tspG6IaIIy attractive to the eye, fresh
figs would at best gain favor slowly.
The fact that many people do not care
for them at the first would be another
obstacle i'll the way of their popularity.
Moreover, the fig is tedious crop to
handle when i'll proper condition for the
market. 1t is necessary to pick the trees
over carefully every day during the sea-
son or much fruit will be overripe
With large trees this involves much la
Dor. The acrid juice of the immature
fig eats into the fingers of the pickers
and packers, while rainy weather oc-
casions heavy loss by the cracking of
the fruit, which renders it unfit for
market. Southern States.

The History Of Black Beauty.

were upon her with their wild cries we
heard one shrek and that was the end of
her.
One OF the hnntsmen rode up and whip
ped off the dogs who would soon have torn
her to pieces He held her up by the leg
torn and bleeding, and all the gentlemen
seemed well pleased. AS for me | was 80
asst" nished that did not at first see what
was going on by the brook; but when |
did look, there was sad sight; two fine
horses were down one was struggling in
the stream, and the other was groaning on
the grass. One of the riders was getting
out of the water, covered with mud, the
other lay quite still. His neck is broken"
said my mother "And served him right
too" said one of the colts, but my mother
did not join with us. "Well, no " she said
"you must not say that; but though | am
an old horse, and have seen and heard
great deal | never could make out why

and tear up the fields, and all for hare,

easily another way; but we are only horses,
and don't know Whilst my mother was
saying this we stood and looked on. Many
of the riders had gone to the young man )
but my master, who had been watching
what was going on was the first to raise
him. His head fell back and his arms
hung down and every one looked very Sc
rious. There was no noise now, even the
dogs were quiet and seemed to know that
something was wrong. They carried him
to our masters house. | heard afterward
that it was young George Gordon. the
sqnire's only son, fine tall young man
the pride of his family.
There was now riding off in all direc-
tions to tho DOCTORS, to the farriers, and
no doubt to Squire Gordons to let him
know about his son. When Mr. Bond the
farrier, came to look at the black horse
that lay grooming on the grass, he felt him
all over, and shook his head one of his
: legs was broken. Then some one ran to
our masters house, and came back with
gun presently there was a loud bang and
dreadful shrek, and then all was still
the black horse moved no more. My
mother seemed troubled she said she had
known that horse for years, and that his
name was Rob Roy !" he was good horse
and there was no vice in him. She never
would go to that part of the field after
ward
Not many days after, we heard the
church-bells toliing fer a long time and
looking over the gate we saw a long,
strange, black coach, covered with black
cloth, and drawn by black horses; after
that came another, and another and an
other, all BLACK, and the bell kept tolling
and tolling They were carrying young
Gordon to the church yard to bury him.
He would never ride again. What they
did with Rob Roy never knew but twas

UnC ertaker Wilson of Evanston, Ills,
was called upon recently by man who
introduced himself as Mr. Bullin of
Highland Park and said he wanted to
get the finest casket the undertaker's art
could furnish for his little 6-year-old
daughter, who had just died. He wept
profusely and said that though he had
four children the little one he had lost
was dearer to him than all the rest.
Touched by the mans grief, Wilson
wiped away few tears that gathered
i'll his own eyes and tenderly conducted
Mr.. Bullin through the establishment.
Mr.. Bullin selected 500 zinc casket
and asked that it be sent to Hie HAND
Park. He then said he had to 90 to Chi
cago to make a few purchases. He
reached for his pocketbook and was
quite overcome when he found he had
forgotten it.
Mr.. Bullin then told Wilson that he
must have SO and asked for loan, tell
ing him to include the amount in his
bill. Wilson started to get the money,
but grew suspicious and refused Mr..

casket be delivered at his home at once.

Sometimes | wonder, when hear these

They re independent of the dramatists,
and should think they would just step
on the stage and talk their plays But
they don't do that. They merely con-
tent themselves with refusing to speak
this or that line because it's rotten,
substituting something Of their own,

What are artists?' asked the inno-
cent.
They re chiefly actors who're con-
demned to come and act i'll the music
halls for three times as much as they
ever got III their lives before. What
they do is to call everything rotten, de-
eide that they know more about the
play than the man who wrote it and
walk around as though it were beneath
them to do anything moro like acting
than that when it came to the question

of hams you mean?'
They're chiefly variety actors accus-

Now Recognized as a Cause of Seri-
Gus Disease.
Acid dyspepsia, commonly called heart
burn or sour stomach, is a form of iDdiges-
ton resulting from fermentation of the
food. The stomach being too weak tc
promptly digest il, the food rema ins until
fermentation begins, filling the stomach
with gas, and a bitter, sour, burning taste
in the mouth is often present. This condi
ton soon becomes chronic, and being an
everyday occurrence is given but little
attention. Because dyspepsia is not i'm
mediateIy fatal, many people do nothing
for the trouble.
Within a recent period remedy has
been discovered prepared solely to cure
dyspepsia and stomach troubles. 1t is
known as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and
is now becoming rapidly used and pre-
scribed as a radical cure for every form Of
dyspepsia
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have been
placed before the public and are sold by
