BILL AND JOE

Oliver Wendell Holmes. Come, dear old comrade, you and l Win steal an hour from days gone by The shining days when life was new, And all was bright with morning dew The lusty days of long ago,
 When you were Bill and l was Joe.  Your name may Haunt a titled trail, Proud as a cockerel's rainbow tail; And mine as brief appendix wear As Tam O Shanter's luckless mare; Today, old friend, remember still, That 1 am Joe and you are Bill. You've won the worlds great envied prize, And grand you look in peoples eyes, With HON, and IL. D.
 In big, brave letters, fair to see Your fist, old fellow off they go!- How are you, Bill? How are you. Joe? You've worn the judges ermined robe, You've taught your name to half the globe; You've sung mankind a deathless strain; You've made the dead past live again; The world may call you what 1t will, But you and are Joe and Bill. The chaffing young folks stare and say, ''See these old buffers, bent and gray They talk like fellows in their teensi Mad poor old boysl That's what it means, !. And shake their heads; they little know The throbbing hearts of Bill and Joe! How Bill forgets his hour of pride, While Joe sits smiling at his side; How Joe, in spite of Times disguise, Finds the old schoolmate in his eyes Those calm, stern eyes that melt and fill As Joe looks fondly up at Bill.
 An pensive scholar, what is fame? A fitful tongue of leaping flame,
 A giddy whirwind's tickle gust,
 That lifts a pinch of mortal dust;
 A few swift years and who can show Which dust was Bill and which was Joe? The weary idol takes his stand,
 Holds out his bruised and aching hand, While gaping thousands come and go How vain it seems--this empty show! Till all at once his pulses thrill;
 Iris poor old Joe's God bless you, Billp And shall we breathe In happier spheres The names that pleased our mortal ears In some sweet lull of harp and song For eartlh-born spirits none too long, Just whispering of the world below,
 Where this was Bill, and that was Joe? No matter, while our home is here, No sounding name is half so dear; When fades at length our lingering day Who cares what pompous tombstones say? Read on the hearts tht love us still,
 Eic jacet Joe! Hc jacet Bill

regards this year as one of the most
favorable seasons for cattle in North

said Col "CaI' S. Uline, of Devils Lake,
at the Merchants hotel yesterday. Prep
arations are being made on every hand
for the cutting Of the grain, and moth

will equal the cut of 1898. Some of the
farmers have put in less acreage, but
there have been many new settlers go.
ing into the state since the last crop
was cut, and on the whole 1 think there
is but little difference in the acreage
Of the two years. 1t must be remem'
bered that last year we had an excep-
tionally good crop, and when we say that
this years crop wiz be its equal it Is
saying a good deal This year grain
has done we'll all over the state. In
several of the counties the crop was al
most total failure last year, but this
season the farmers in every section or
the state are rejoicing over the crop
prospects. The general average of the
North Dakota crop this year will, l
think, be between sixteen and eighteen
bushels to the acre. OF course this is
subject to variation in different locali-
ties, but taking the state right through
this average will hold good. The crop
last year was in the neighborhood OF
O.OQO 600 bushels for North Dakota, and
a conservative estimate for this years
production would not put the figures
lower than that; in fact, 1 should not
be surprised to see it go as high as
3d. 900 bushels.
More flax has been put in this year
than ever before in North Dakota, and
the crop is turning out very well. Those
who have experimental with flax will,
in the future, plant it as a regular crop,
and its production promises to be fore
most with our farmers. 1t brings a good
price, and is very prolific in North Da-
kota. We have heard some reports to the

From the Time of the Accident
Michael Meyer, the other Man In
jured, Is in Way to Recover.
After death had claimed It's victim the
unknown man, who was so badly hurt
in the railroad accident under the Mis-
sissippi street bridge Monday evening,
was yesterday identified at the city hos
pital as August Reichow, a bricklayer,
living at 27S Topping street. The injured
man never recovered consciousness after
being taken to the hospital, and when
he died at 4 o'clock yesterday morning
his identity was still unknown. Later
Frank Reichow, whose father did not
return from work Saturday evening, call
ed at the hospital and identified the body
as that of his parent.
Michael Meyer, the other man hurt in
the same accident in which Reichow was
fatally injured, was somewhat improved
yesterday at st. Joseph's hospital, and 1t
is believed his chances for recovery are
good. Meyer is cut about the head, but
the physicians are Of the opinion that
the skull is not fractured, as was at first
feared. Reichow's death was directly due
to a severe fracture of the skull at the
base of the bran. He Was also frightfully
cut about the head and face. He was
unconscious when removed to the hos
pital, and never rallied. There was moth
ing about the injured mans clothing to
disclose his identity, and when death
came it was not known who he was. Dur
ing the morning his son identified the re
mains. Reichow was ffty-tive years OF
age, and leaves wife and several chill
dren He was fellow workman of
Meyers on the elevator being erected
at Hamm's brewery, as was stated in
yesterdays G l o b e. The two men had
been in the habit of walking home on the
railroad tracks, and were pursuing their
usual course when run down by the
freight train.
The death of Reichow places the case in
the hands of Coroner Nelson. The cor
oner viewed the remains at the hospital
and made other Investigations, but has
not yet decided whether or not an inquest
will be held

HAS ETERNITY in His HEART
REV. S. G. SMITH breaches
ON THE SCOPE OF
MAN
The Thoughts of Absolute Beauty
Are Not Affected by Human Linn
itatfOns-Man Has More Than the
Material World.

The Rev. S. G. Smith preached at the
Peoples church last evening on "Can
Death Kill MANI" taking his text from
Eccl. i'll, II: HE hath set eternity in
their heart"
In his introduction DR.. Smith drew
contrast between the great grief shown
by those who mourned over the loss of
Robert G. IngersoH and the grief of a
little woman, a member Of the Peoples
church congregation, who, with Christian
resignation, is watching her husband die
during weary weeks, knowing the end to
be in sight. Everything is beautiful that
is in harmony with It's relations and des-
tiny declared the speaker. ''There is a
perfection of correspondence. Every
creature must have its environments
within itself-it is natures harmony"
A scientific explanation must cover the
facts. The nebular hypothesis explains,
although man never saw 1t, but the doc
trine of the scope of man must explain
man. Man is a microcosm-a small or
condensed universal fact that explains
our knowledge of environment. Nothing
can escape human inquisitiveness. But
he has also eternity in his heart. On the
wings of his dreams he floats out of the
visible He has ideas of God and per-
lection; he has an ldea OF the unIlnlIeo,
yet there are bounds everywhere. The
thoughts of absolute beauty are not af-
fected by human limitations.
The body relates man to the physical
world, but there it ceases. 1t may be dis
solved, but still man has more than the
material world explains. The matter of
the body is not dissolved by death, but is
changed. The atom is the secret Of mat
ter, but consciousness is the secret of
sDirit This conception explains all the
problems of man. God is our Father be-
cause we are the possessors of His ma
ture The revelation is in man, by man
to man.
