probate the following from the Bis

craven in the history of the state that
Mr.. Barrett, single handed and alone,

LONG DISTANCE FIGHTING.

Impossible to Tell infantry From
Cavalry III Two Thousand Yards.
"Unless they have had experience, .
remarked an army officer, people are
very likely to have q very imperfect
idea az to distances in army and field
operations and as a result get things
considerably mixed. When they read
that armies are engaging with each 9TH
CT at 1000 yards between them, they
may think that they can see each other.
but theIeality is far different.
"Atyh hat distance, to the naked eye,

larger than q sp,eck. It is impossible TO
distinguish 81 that distance between q
man and . horse, and at 500 yards less,

any dust, it requires the best kind Of

heads Of the columns can be made out
With anything like certainty:
"Infantry can be seen in the sunlight

lery, for the reason that less dust is

GOOD, INTELLIGENT PEOPLE.

GOOD, INTELLIGENT PEOPLE.
The letter from DR.. Ritchie, Of the
Thirteenth regiment, at Manila, is the
sort Of literature that exposes the
sophistry Of politicians Of the w. j.
Bryan type. It is SO graphic that it at
once gives q vivid insight into the life
Of a new people from whom we have
some things to learn and to whom we
have some things to teach. The doc
tor tells us that they have discovered
q disease there which the surgeons in.
charge have never seen before, and on.
which3there is no literature. He de-
scribes the name of observing holt
days in the Philippines, which natur-
ally suggest new ideas to Americans.
AS they become better acquainted
with the natives he says the better
they like them. He says they are
really good, intelligent people. There
will probably be 40 more difficulty in
getting along with foreigners in the
Philippines than there is on the con-
tinent.

Kirghix Music.

One Of the Kirghiz came into my
tent. and, squatting down, began to play
the kaumuss, a three stringed instru-
ment played with the fingers. The
music was monotonous and of a melan-
choly cadence, but it harmonized we'll
with the surroundings and the moods
they inspired. In a word, it was typio-
ally Asiatic. I sat and listened to it
with pleasure, giving my imagination
captive to the music, the soft moaning
of the night wind, the gentle crackle Of
the fire. How many and many a night
did ! not spend thus during the long
years that followed listening to the
dreamy sounds of that primitive Kir-
ghiz instrument! \
How many q dark, solitary winter
afternoon did I not while away in this
foolish fashionl In course of time /
grew accustomed to the kaumuss and
derived as much pleasure from it as the
Kirghiz did themselves. In fact, I grew
fond of it. Its soothing music carried
my mind away into the fairy realms Of
day dreams. Ny thoughts few far away
to my home amid the dark pine woods
Of Sweden.-Sven Hedin in s'Through

The Flying Fog.

The flying fox is a very curious In
habitant Of the forest near Moreton bay,
In east Australia. It lives in Aocks and
moves generally toward the dusk Of the
evening, and the noise produced by the
heavy tapping Of the so called wings is
very singular. The flocks like quiet
places, where there are large a%raucarian
pine trees, with an underwood Of scrub
and oreepers. The foxes hang in vast
numbers from horizontal branches Of
the pine trees.
When there is q clear space among
the trees, an enormous number Of the
animals may be seen. and their noise
can be heard, for directly they see any
thing unusual they utter q short bark,
something like the sound made BY young
rocks Often every branch is crowded,
and the young foxes are seen either Zap
ping their wings and holding on with
their hind feet and with their heads

La Grippe Successfully Treated.
Il have just recovered from the
second attack of la grippe this year,
says MI. Jas. A. Jones, publisher Of
the Leader, Mexia, Texas. SIN the
latter case I used Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy, and I think with con-
siderable success, only being in bed q
little over two days against ten days
for the former attack. The second at
tack I am satisfied would have been
equally as bad as the first but for the
use of this remedy as I had to go to
bed in about six hours after being
struck with it, while in the first case
] was able to attend to business about
two days before getting down. For

NORTH DAKOTA.

David r. McGinnis, formerly Of
Grand Forks, but Of late identified
with the commercial interests Of st.
Paul, has a we'll written article in last
Saturdays Dispatch on Building up
Of North Dakota" He concludes with
these reflections:
These reflections are forcibly
brought before me as I drive over
North Dakota, and see its active, rust
ling people, busily intent on making
the most of their wonderful opportun-
ities. Where will the end be? My
real opinion as to the future Of the
state is SO far in excess of what may
be considered reasonable at this time,
that I hesitate to offer it. The pos
sibilities of all new countries are al.
ways far in excess Of the general opin-
ion in regard to them. Il is true that
prosperity in North Dakota does not
come without effort, any more than it
does anywhere else. 10 q settler in
that state it is not all q song of glad
ness any more than it is in any new
location. Industry is needed; forti-.
tude is needed, economy is needed;
but the state is rich in all those mater
ial things which are essential to home
seekers; that is, free land or railroad
lands at q price which is practically
free, q healthful climate; abundant
water supply, excellent markets, first
class railroad facilities, q we'll organ.
lied public school system, and an OPP
portunity to get along in the world.
II the farmers in the East knew the
amount of money made by stock rails
ers throughout the western part Of
the state every year, and saw how
easily it is done, these free lands,
would all be taken within one year.
What would some OF these farmers
think, who struggle q whole year to
raise eighty acres Of corn at 20 cents q
bushel, which costs them at least 16
to raise and market, to know that
single farmers along the Missouri
river and over the prairies of the state
have marketed from 5000 to $4,000
worth OF stock in one year, Of which
eight-tenths was clear profit? How
many Of them could be induced to re-

How to Prevent Pneumonia.

You are perhaps aware that pneu-
monia always results from a cold or
from an attack Of la grippe. During
the epidemic of la grippe a few years
ago when so many cases resulted in
pneumonia, it was observed that the
attack was never followed by that dis
ease when Chamberlain's Cough Re-
NEEDY vas used. It counteracts any
tendency of a cold OF Ia grippe to re-
suit in that dangerous disease. It is
the best remedy in the world for bad
colds and Ia grippe. Every bottle q
