The Reindeer.

Two train loads of reindeer and
about eighty attendant taplanders
passed through this city On Friday
last, and fully 1000 people assembled
at the station to see them. There were
525 reindeer ana several car loads of
food and supplies-the food a peculiar
moss which is the favCrite subsistence
of the animal, and which grows be-
meath the snow The Laps are a pecu-
liar people-small Of stature, rugged
in body, broad featured and good
natured. They were evidently enjoy
ing the trip. The expedition is under
the auspices of the government, which
is introducing the reindeer and those
familiar with them and their habits
into Alaska. the entire outfit was
brought from Lapland by government
agents who will see them through to
their destination and disperse them
there to the best advantage. The pub
lie schools were dismissed that the
students might all see the deer and
the Laps. Several snap shots were
taken Of the train and the people,

Must We Pay?

The question as to whether the care
of Frederick Pfeiffer, formerly of this
city, now at St. Cloud, is a charge upon
this city will be tried at St. Cloud on
Friday. Pfeiffer was taken to the hos
pital and received upon his own re-
sponsibility, and for more than a
year paid for his care, deciding his
property to the hospital authorities.
Later he was committed to the Fergus
Falls asylum, and was discharged
cured of insanity, but physically
weak. He was again received into
the hospital, and it is for his care the
hospital sues the city. He will be re-
membered as the eccentric little tailor
who formerly occupied a shop west OF
the City Hall.

A Surprise Party.

A score of friends of Mr.. and Mrs,
George M. Bishop gave them a pleas
ant surprise early on Monday even
ing, the occasion being the ann ivirsa-
ry of the birth of Mrs. Bishop. Elab-
crate arrangements were made by a
number of the ladies, and a descent
was made upon the unsuspecting VIC
tims-the invaders being ladened with
goodly supplies. A supper was rap
idly spread and heartily enjoyed, and
The evening was delightfully."- spent in a
social way. There were present:
Messrs. and Mesdames Sam Simonton.
J. H. Simonton, Dubois, Tully, C.
c. Tobey, Whipple, Pendergast and
Pike; Mesdames How and Harmon.
and Mr.. How. 1t was a remarkable
coincidence that it was the birthday
OF Mrs. Tobey and Mr.. Pike. A little
reminder of the occasion was left-a
birthday present.

How to Look Good.

Good looks are really more than
skin deep depending entirely on q
healthy condition of all the vital Or
gans. If the liver be inactive, you
have bilious look; if your stomach
be disordered, you have dyspeptic
look: if your kidneys be affected, you
have q pinched look. Secure good
health, and you will surely have good
looks. Electric Bitters'' is q good
Alternative and Tonic. Acts directly
on the stomach, liver and kidneys.
Purifes the blood, cures pimples,
blotches and boils, and gives q good
complexion. Every bottle guaranteed.

NEVER make fun of old age; no mat

NEVER use Intoxicating liquors as a

drunkard; but beer, wine and whisky
will do you no good and may wreck
your life. Better be on the safe side.
Make your influence count for sobri-

NEVER make sport of one of those
miserable creatures-a drunken man

Weep, rather than laugh.
NEVER tell nor listen to the telling of
filthy stories. Cleanliness in word and
act is the sign manual of a true gentle
man. You cannot handle filth without
becoming fouled.
NEVER cheat nor be unfair in your

other people to have like opinion of
yourself?
NEVER make fun of companion be-

Northern, vice Mr.. r. w. Bryan,

ment which has been going the rounds

position referred to above. His head
quarters will be at Spokane, Washing
ton, and he will be in charge of the sys-
tenn between Blackfoot, Idaho, and the
coast, including the coast lines of the
company.
1t is understood that Mr.. Bryan will
be offered the position of superinten-
dent of the Fergus Falls division made
vacant by Mr.. Britton's promotion. 1t
is reported in railroad circles that the
change will not be distasteful to Mr..
Bryan, who will gladly avail himself
of the opportunity to again become
connected with the Fergus Falls divi-
sion where he did his first railroad
work in the northwest. j Journal Press.

The market prices of wheat and sill
yer must make d somewhat depressing
study for Mr.. Bryan and his co-laborers
just now, especially if they compare
them with those of the date of Mr.,
Bryan's nomination. An ounce of sill
yer at the date of his nomin alton for
the Presidency was worth considerably
more than bushel of wheat, being
quoted at 6S 9-lO cents in the New Y ork
markets. while wheat at the same date
was worth 644 cents per bushel. To-day
an ounce of silver is worth 554 cents
in the New Y York markets, while wheat
is in the vicinity of $1.0S, having
reached as high as Sl.0Sa in the past
few days, while No. hard Manitoba
and hard Duluth were quoted as high
as Sl.12s and 81. l38 on February 20.
It will thus be seen that while an ounce
of silver was worth more than bushel
of wheat at the date of Mr.. Bryan's
nomination, it now requires fully two
ounces OF silver to buy a bushei OF
wheat. Room 1-Glover Building.

DEADwooD. s.. D., July l6.-Unless some
method is discovered very soon to exterminate
the wolves on the Black Hills ranges, stock
men will be compelled to either go out OF the
business or move their herds to a country
where wolves do not exist. The same condi-
ton exists In the western part OF North Da-
kota. enstern Wyoming and Montana. in parts
OF Colorado and in New Mexico and Texas.
Stockmen estimate that each wolf during the
year will do 800 damage to a herd Of cattle,
and this loss is the greatest that befalls the
stockmen. One cattle owner in Butte county
reports having lost forty head OF steers last sea-
son by wolves. Old cattlemen are Of the opin-
ion that there is but one way to exterminate
them. and that is by concerted action Of the
States and counties in makinGl wolf hunting a
profitable business. By placing a bounty of $40
