Wahpeton Globe: Last Sunday the
pastor of the Presbyterian church at
Grand Forks asked the ladies present at
the morning service to please remove
their hats. Some of the ladies immedi-
ately complied with the request. Others
who wore very large hats with plumes
standing out on each side like immense
sweeps, hesitated and grew nervous.
The minister stood patiently waiting.
Some of the ladies began to nervously
finger their hat pins, and finally about
one-half Of the hats were taken off,
when the minister continued his dis.
course 1t is expected that all of the
hats will be taken off next Sunday.
Most of the Wahpe1on women have

they remove their hats at the theater,
but the church is still the scene of nod.

Writing of northwestern representa-
tives in congress j. S. VonAntwerp says:
Senator Hansbrough of North Dakota,
being chairman of a fairly good commit
tee, occupies a handsome room, and
North Dakota people are usually gath
cred there when at the capitol, and if
the senator is unable to entertain them,
their wants, pleasures and business are
carefully attended to by Mr.. Hansbroug's
private secretary, Fred bennett, who
was at one time a member of the North
Dakota legislature. Senator Hansbrough,
at the coming session of congress, will
either remain at the head of his old
committee and occupy the same room
or will be promoted to one of more
prominence in quarters doubtless con-
sidered more elegant than the room
given him for his committee work at the
present time.

instantly and another will die.
Fast freight No. Is west bound had a
crippled engine and when but a short
distance beyond Williston the engineer
found it necessary to make some repairs.
The brakeman was sent back to flag Il
light engine which was following the
train, but before he did so the engineer
called him in, having made the repairs
necessary to his engine. Just as the
brakeman boarded the caboose of the
freight train it was struck by the light
engine. The brakeman was instantly
killed and the conductor received in
juries which have probably proved fatal
as it was not expected that he would
survive the trip to Great Falls. The en-
gineer and fireman on the light engine
jumped, thus saving their lives. The

following is from the Ward County Re-
porter: Do you know of any couple de-
string to enter into another state, i. e.,
the state of matrimony?-send them to

children whom you wish to dedicate to
the Lord for baptism, bring them to the

desolated by the death of a loved one,
you will find the Methodist minister
ever ready to render any service possible.

Oldest PRESBYTERIAN Preacher.

The Walhalla Mountainer, in speaking
of the death of Father Sloan, in which
connection he was spoken of as the first
Presbyterian minister to do work in the
territory, says:
While not wishing to detract from
'Fathcr" in any manner the item should
be corrected, as the oldest Presbyterian
preacher to work in this territory and
one who should receive every honor for
that work, is still alive, or at least was
in '97-Rev. Alonzo Barnard, who now
lives at Benzonia, Mich. He came to
this territory in 1858 in company with
others and labored among the early
pioneers and Indians, his wife dying
here from exposure and the wife of his
companion being shot by the Indians
at this place. Both bodies were inferred
here and there graves. together with the
grave of Elijah Terry, who was a Bap-
fist missionary shot in 1852, are one of
the beautiful spots in the Presbyterian
cemetery, and are revered by all as
sacred to the MARTYRS of Walhalla."

nAJ. GENERAL OTIS.
At One Time Aspired to Become a Res
ident of Burleigh County.

Maj. General Elwell E. Otis now in
the Philippines was commandant at
Fort Rice-after the advent of the 7th
cavalry-in the Department of Dakota.
At one time a claim holder, he aspired
to become a citizen of Burleigh county.
Gen. Otis, with Major Joseph Tilford,
Col. Lee and other officers, filed home
stead claims in the same section at
Apple Creek, where they erected a
handsome two story mansion in the
center of the section and extensively i'm
proved and cultivated the land. Spend
ing all the time they could spare from
their official duties, with their families
on the land.
Col. Tilford's proof was rejected at
Washington in 1879 on the ground that
"a soldier cannot acquire title to gov
eminent land under a homestead entry
for the reason that the service to render
which he has bound himself for the
period of his enlistment is in its nature
not compatible with the residence and
cultivation required" Attorney D.. O.
Preston, of Bismarck then filed on
Tilfords claim and obtained title. Fol
lowing the example of the officers a
number of non-commissioned officers
stationed at Fort Lincoln and Bismarck
contested the claim of the settlers-but
the only claimant in the military service
who succeeded in obtaining a patent to
government land under the homestead
entry was Corporal A. 7. Sherwood of
the signal station in Bismarck, son-in-
law of the Receiver of the U. S. Land
Office at Bismarck, to land north of the
city. He erected a fine residence, which
has since been moved into the city and
is now located on Fifth street.

in early days regarding drouth in Dakota
relates the following incident:
"Gen. Hazen was outrageously abused
for what he wrote about the dryness of
Dakota while he was stationed in that
country, and it does not seem possible
that such a climatic change could have
taken place since, in so short a time.
When Gen. Sully arrived at Fort
Berthold with his command in 1866, it
had been very dry, as usual, for a long
time, and the Indians held a council and
decided to ask Gen. Sully. whom they
thought must be a big medicine man, to
make medicine to bring rain. The gen.
eral, who was a great joker, said he
would do his best, and sure enough that
same afternoon about dark there came
up a terrific hail storm, the hail stones
being as big as hens eggs. The Indians
had planted squashes and squaw corn in
their little gardens under the bluff on
the river bank, and all we're totally de-
stroyed. But the Indians came the next
day and thanked the general for the
rain, though they said it was a little too
hard and that their gardens we're washed
away. The general said he was sorry
but the storm got the start of him and
he couldn't stop it, but the generals
reputation as a medicine man was estab-
lished.
mo n ever supposed crops could be
raised in that country; the little hardy
squaw-corn and the squashes that the
Indians raised at Fl. Berthold were con-
sidered wonderful. The soldiers used to
hire the squaws to gather little wild
onions, which were about the size of a
pea, which they ate to keep off the sour
vey, there being no other vegetables in
the country. The other nearest attempt
at gardening was made at Sun River,
Montana, about 700 miles distant, by
Col. Vaughn, the agent for the Black
feet, but it was a failure.'

NOT A MATTER OF EXPERIMENT

The application of the science OF
chemistry to the tillage of the soil has
resulted in a great advance in agricul-
ture. Before the success now attained
by progressive planters could be reach
ed, however, many experiments had to
be made. In fact, it is only by repeat
ed experiments that progress is made
in any, calling. II is worth noting in
this connection that advertising as an
essential feature of mercantile effort is
no longer in the experimental stage.
The merchant who regularly uses the
columns of a popular newspaper in
which to tell the public about this
goods is not making an experiment.
He may feel assured of certain and
profitable results.
