Than of Reservation Indians, Says
Cruiser DedOn.
W. s. Dedon, one Of the state cruisers,
was at the state house yesterday, having
just reached St Paul from Walker Mr..
Dedon says the Indians are perfectly
tame" and there is less danger from
them than from some of the white people
that hang around Walker. While in
that city he saw lumberman robbed of
$40 in broad daylight, and the thieves es-
capped without any attempt being made
to intercept them
Mr.. Dedon laughs at the reports of
trouble on the reservation. The Indians
are perfectly quiet and have been right
along.
He states. however, that the law re-
garding the sale Of liquor to Indians is
being openly disregarded.

WEYERHAEUSER NOT In IT

KNOWS NOTHING OF REPORTED
BIG DEAL IN PINE.
There is not word of truth in 1t, so
Iar as l am concerned" said Frederick
Weyerhaeuser yesterday, when asked by
q G b 9 reporter as to the statement
in West Superior dispatch in a local
paper that he was negotiating for the
purchase of billion feet of pine in
Northern Minnesota, along the line Of the
Northern Pacif1c's proposed logging road
from Bemidjt northward. Speaking of
the development of the pine resources of
that region, Mr.. Weyerhaeuser said:
know personally that there is no such
amount of pine in that region as stated
in this dispatch. There is enough to war
rant the building of the logging road,
because logging railways generally be-
come permanent if the country has any re-
sources besides pine But 1 believe the
report was started by some one in that
section who has pine land to sell. and,
not receiving satisfactory offers for II,
mas used my name to stir up the mar
ket. 1 know nothing of the deal men,
toned in that dispatch.

Fund Makes This Total.
With the 900 taken from the Insur-
ance fund and appropriated for school
money there Is actually an available fund
at the disposal Of the board of S76OOO0,
but as members Of the council have
stated this is a larger appropriation than
was asked for, and they think it will be
reduced quite a number of thousands.
On the other hand, it Is thought that
since there has not been any repairing
of much consequence for about eight
years more money may be needed than
has been anticipated.

PATHS Parrots.

Patti has two wonderful parrots, one
of whom talks all day long, and imi-
tates its mistress trills and staccati in
an amazing fashion, and who (believe
me, for I have heard him) can even
compose the most elaborate melodies,
says a correspondent. The other par
rot-Jumbo by name-is an oddly.
Patti bought him for $500 in New
York, where he was reputed to be the
finest talking parrot alive. Once in
her possession he became dumb. In
vain they tried to coax him to con-
verse. Months went by until one
morning the prima donna woke with a
bad sore throat. Send for the doctor,
she cried, ''for have to sing tonight
The doctor duly arrived. AS he entered
the room the parrot uttered his first
and last words. "Oh! DOCTOR" he ex-
claimed, in a strong Yankee accent,
I'm so sick!" And since that day
now several years ago, he has not ut
tered a word.-Baltimore News.

A FORMER AMERICAN SAYS.

Doubled Their Cultivated Lands and
More Than Doubled Their Stock.
The following letter, written by MIR.
John Cummings of Wetaskiwin, AL
berta, Canada, formerly of Washing
ton, to a friend in the United States,
is only one of hundred similar cases,
and what was done by Mr.. Cummings
can more easily be done today by any
good, sober and industrious farmer
who chooses to make his home in the
dominion.
Dear Sir: You want to know how I
got along since 1 came into Northern
Alberta. I am happy to inform you
that 1 am not ashamed to tell.
We located five miles northeast of
Wetaskiwin; left Pennington, Wash,
on the 29th day of May, driving all the
way. We had time to build our
log house the first fall, and to make
us comfortable for the family and
stock. We then built four stables, 1Sx
20 inside, so that we could put every
thing inside them when the cold got
down to the fifties, and worked hard
getting up the stables, and got through
clubbing on the list of December; but,
to our surprise, We had no use for the
stables only for the milk cow and two
spans of horses. The balance of the
horses lived on the prairie all winter,
and took care of themselves. The doors
of two stables were left open for them
to go into in cold time, but they
would not do it, but stayed out on the
prairie the coolest night we had and
looked as spry as crickets.
can go ten rods back of my house
and count ten residents. I know all
of their circumstances. Every one of
them have doubled their cultivated
land, and doubled their animals, and
a great deal more. All of us are COM
paratively out of debt and an unusual
" big crop to thresh and prospects of
a fair price, and 1 expect we are as
well contented lot Of people as there
is to be found from Florida to the
Klondike.
My son bought two pounds of Irvine
to the acre, and when we started to
bind some barley we found that in
stead Of taking two pounds to the acre,
it was taking nearly five pounds. Then
you ought to have seen him hitch up a
team and make for town for 100 pounds
more. I cannot say how it will thresh.
All can say is that it is well-headed,
and takes an enormous amount of
Irvine.

The Danger of Catarrh Ointments That
Contain Mercury.
This journal, although more part1cu-
larly devoted to all that interests
finance, commerce and manufacture
ing, is nevertheless always awake to
the need and wants of its readers, let
the subject be what it may. We were
asked to investigate and report upon
the merits of the various catarrh rene
dies on the market. The production
of preparations of injurious compost
ton cannot, unfortunately, be stopped
or restricted at present, or until our
state legislatures can be induced to
pass such suitable and stringent laws
as will effectually prevent their ap-
pearance on the market. In the mean
time, the people must look out for
themselves. In this matter, we have
made a most careful and painstaking
investigation, realizing the confidence
that would be placed in our reply. Our
medical staff employed to make such
Investigations were most favorably
impressed with the preparation known
as Halls catarrh cure, manufactured
by F. J. Cheney & Co. of Toledo, Ohio,
and agreed that this peerless remedy
deserves our highest Endorsement.
Many of the catarrh remedies on the
market contain mercury, which de-
stroys the sense of smell and deranges
the whole system when entering
through the mucous surfaces. From
analysis we found that Halls catarrh
cure contains no mercury. 1t is taken
internally, acting directly upon the
blood and mucous surfaces of the sys-
tenn. We have no interest whatever
in this matter beyond faithfully serv-
ing our readers, and as our indorse-
ment is extended without reward OF
any kind, and is wholly unsolicited by
this company, and will be received
with the full credence that all our
statements have met with for the past
eighteen years.-Southern Review OF
