RAILROAD WORK.
Numerous Improvements and Additions
Being Completed BY the N. r

The building Of the Dickey-Cassel-.
ton branch of the Northern Pacific will
be commenced in a short time. The
right Of way from C~asselton to Dickey5
is being secured and the contractors;
are making estimates as to the cost,
Of the road. 1t is expected that the
road will be completed in time to haul
the wheat crop this fall. The branch
will without doubt prove to be one of.
the most profitable of those belonging
to the Northern Pacific. The North
ern Pacific will do considerable work
the roadbed this year. West.of
Mandan for 100 miles the road WI be
improved with gravel which will be
taken from Steele. number of
crews will be employed in the work,
Regarding the employment of Ita1-.
ians by the road inquiry of railroad
officials shows that the company is
anxious to employ workmen for the
season but because of the lack of sup
ply has to ship in men. Some 160. are
now employed on the division in four
extra gangs-SO arriving yesterday

they could be secured. They receive
81 10 a day and remain for the entire
season. The experience of the road
has been that resident workmen can
find employment at more profitable
wages and they cannot get men to stay
through the season. Farm wages
seem to be too high this season and
not enough men for the section crews

able that some of the extra gangs will
have to be placed on sections temper
arily to put in ties and put the road
bed in shape. That, the officials say,
vas the case at Spiritwood last season
when for a time an extra gang had to
be located there, the section crew not
being large enough to do the work.
Last season the men in the extra
crews and section men received the
same pay and it is understood the pay
will be the same this season, though
during the winter section men received
but $1.25 a day.

NOr1E CLAIr1S.
Discussion of Senator Hansbrough's
Amendment Against Alien
Claims.

Washington, April Fin the dis
cussion of the Alaskan civil code bill
Mr.. Hansbrough (Rep., N. d. pro-
posed the following amendment,
That no persons, who are not citi-
zens of the United States, or who prior
to making location had not legally de-
clared their Intention to become such,
shall be permitted to locate, hold, or
convey mining claims in said district
of Alaska, O shall any title to a
mining claim acquired by location or
purchase through any such person or
persons be legal" q
The amendment precipitated a
lively debate. It was again asserted
that some mining claims had been To-
Gated at Cape Nome by Laplanders who
had gone to Alaska with the relief ex-
petition to take care of the herd Of
reindeer. 1t was stated that some
of these Laplanders had made appli-
cation to become American citizens be-
fore the United States commissioner
in Alaska. They located claims in
the Cape Nome district. Later they
disposed of the claims. Il,
Mr.. Stewart (Silver, New protested
against the adoption of the amend
ment. He said that one G.. D. Lane
had acquired some Cape Nome claims
from the LapIanders who had located
them, and had expended upon them
about 100000. Should the amend
ment be adopteu, he said, Mr.. Lane
would lose not only the claims but all
he had invested in them. Subsequent
to the location of the claims by the
Laplanders the claims were relocated
by other miners, who now claim pos
session of them. The adoption of the
amendment, it was said, would give
the r~elocators the claims. n
Nh. Teller fSilyer-Rep., COLI held
the Lapianders had an undoubted
right to the claims they had located.
Mr.. Daniel (Dem., Va.) opposed the
amendment. Mr. Hansbrough said
the LapIanders had located from 1000
to 1000 acres of placer claims on the
various creeks in the district. They
We're not American citizens. Later,
American citizens arrived in the dis
trict, and finding all the richest claims
located by aliens" they relocated
claimed only their rights. So far as
ne was personally concerned, Mi.
Hansbrough said, he had no interest
in the claims, direct or indirect, CON
tingent Or remote.
Mr. Teller maintained that 1T made
no difference whether the Laplanders
were citizens OF the United States or
not. While the law was that only
citizens of the United States could 10
cate mining claims the question of cit
izenship could be raised only by the
United States. and II WIS well under
stood the United States would never
raise it.
The bill was laid aside without fur.

During the winter extra work is

The appetite becomes poor, sleep rest

there is dyspepsia, liver or kidney

Sitting Erect.

Very many persons, in taking a seat,
use the edge Of it only, with the result
that in very short time they seem
to be doubling up, the head bending
forward over the chest. The easiest
method of sitting erect, and in a grace
full position. Is to occupy the chair in
such a way that the lowest part of the
spine or backbone touches the back
Of the seat; then. by causing the shout
ders also to touch the back, the whole
body is erect and maintains itself, not
only without an effort, but with a feel
ing of support relief and rest, and
that, toe, without any appreeiable eff
fort. Any position maintained by the
aid of brace is forced, and is secured
by an injury done.to some other part,
which notonly has to support itself,
but aid in supporting parts not intend
ed, hence must in time itself need aid
from other sources, and thus the mis-
chief goes on

story OF Clever Prisoners Plan for

/ Story OF Clever Prisoners Plan for
Escape.
Green CASEY convict at San Quen-
tin, has won the admiration of all his
fellow eonviets at the prison for the
novel contrivanee he has invented in
order to make his escape from the pris.
on walls some time ago, and through
Sheriff Langdon Of Santa Clara county.
the story has leaked out, says the Sah
francisco Call. Casey was a kind OF
trusfy around the prison grounds, and
while working in one of the grounds In
the vicinity of the prison he took it
INTO his head that he would like to es-
! cape end was beginning to tax his
miea Is = the most advantageous way
C is purpose. AS he was stroll
ms md on the green grass which
grows : abundance around the prison.
an idea struck him that II he could
initiate the grass by some means he
could elude the watehful sentries and
make good his escape. Through the
aid of his convict friends he procured
some pieces of burlap. and with the
aid of some rope made them into long
coat that would cover him completely
When lying on the grass. He then Sc
cured some wheat from the prison
stable and sowed it down earelessly at
one end OF the prison grounds, and
Watered it daily. In a few weeks the
grass grew UP through the sack coat.
and before great while the piece of
burlap was conformed into a grassy
lawn. He was now ready to carry out
his plans and patiently waited an OPP
portunity. At last he succeeded in get
ting his new contrivanee across to the
northwest of the prison, and in few
minutes was under his grassy coat.
Slowly he erept along with the clever
ness OF worm, and from all appear
anees success would crown his efforts
But his progress was too rapid, and
very soon he heard footsteps coming
IN his direction. The moving grass
plat, which was slowly making its way
up the hillside soon came to a sudden
standstill as the eye of guard had
noticed the grass moving and came to
investigate the phenomenon A kick
IN the ribs apprised Casey that his plan
had been discovered. The guard took
Casey, and a red shirt now covers his
breast.

The repeated reveises experienced by
