DIED-At her home in Williston, on
the morning Of August 7th, 1900. Mrs.
Alyina Brickley, wife Of Leonard f.
BrickIey, aged IS years. Mrs. Brickley's
illness was very brief, and the announce
ment of her death was a great shock to
her friends. The deceased leaves a hus-
band and three children to mourn her
untimely departure.
The Bruegger Mercantile Co. have
received a notice from the contractor,
who built the round house at this place,
and who expects to put in the new
thirty stall round house at Havre, ask
ing for prices on lot of 100000 brick.
The brick manufactured by this firm
has been anayzed and tested, and the
fact that prices were asked for on this
brick, proves that it has come up to all
the requirements Of the Great Northern
Railway Go. If the prices made by the
Bruegger Mercantile Co. are satisfactory,
it will mean work for from IL to 10 men,
for the balance Of the season.
George Marelius, formerly residing in
this place, but who has lived for
number of years in Fargo, last week
week shipped in carload Of household
goods, and intends to make Williston his
future home. Mr.. Marelius is staunch
friend of Major Edwards Of the Fargo
Forum, and his visit to ye scribe was by
special injunction from the Maj to call
on "the old democratic war horse" and
offer consolation. Such conduct as that,
dear Major, hurts our feelings. 1t is
true, the senior of this sheet has always
held to democratic party, but some
how it seems to have slipped cog, and
now we'll be hanged if we can tell what
sort of thing has been left in its place.
IF your friend Mareiins can give US
diagnosis of the anomaly now thrust
upon the public as democracy" we
shall be pleased to have him honor us
with another visit

HEALTHFUL SLEEP.
Spring Of the Bed Is Level and
Properly Adjusted.

The most important element in solv-
ing the question of how shall we get
the best and most refreshing sleep is
that of the bed. If your bed or mattress
it not right you will not get the best
and most from your hours of repose.
Every one knows that it is bad to sleep
on your back, but it is even worse if the
bed is such that your stomach is as high
as your head and your feet are lower
than both, as must be the case on too
heavily wadded mattresses. On the
other hand, if the spring is too yield
ing you will find that the heavy parts
of the body make you lie in kind of
hollow, whether you sleep on your back
or on your side. It is most unhealthful
to have your feet so high as they are in
this kind of bed, when you sleep on your
back, and if you try to sleep on your
side the spine is curved most uncom-
fortably and unhealthfully.
What then is to be done about it?
The spring of the bed must either be

LITTLE ROSE CRAIG.
ellen Terry Is Bringing I'm Her
Grandchild to BE the Actress
of the Future.

NJ SIS Ellen Terry, who is now playing
in this country with Sir Henry Irving,
is trying an interesting experiment. It
is her theory that girl can be so edu-
Gated that she cannot fail to succeed
as an actress; that if a parent will be-
gin to teach his boy to act at the very
moment when he first initiates him
into the mysteries of the alphabet he
cannot fail to win fame and fortune on
the stage.
In other words, while she does not
entirely disregard the old theory that
men and women are born players, just
as they are born poets, she is of the
opinion that early training is even more
important, and she is now engaged in
making a practical application of her
theory.
No one who has seen Miss Ellen Terry
play the youthful Clarisse de Maulucon
would ever imagine that she was a
grandmother, and yet such is the fact.
Moreover, unlike many actresses, Miss
Terry is not ashamed of her age. She
is proud of the fact that she has been
able to 6cfy the ravages of the years
so we'll, and she openly boasts of the
little grandchild who is to be the great
actress to whom the world will pay it's
honors when she, the grandmother,
shall have ceased to play her parts.
The name of the little child who is
being educated up to this ideal is Rose
Marie Craig and she is the 1anUh for
of Miss Terry's son, Gordon. At pres
ent little Miss Craig is but four years
of age, but in spite of this, her training
has already commenced.
When she still lay in her cradle her
charming young grandmother dedi-
Gated her life to the stage, and her IA
Their and mother are anxiously assist
ing Miss Terry in carrying out the ex-
pertinent. They have full confidence in
her theory. They believe that she can
do what she says she will do, and that
their little girl will yet be the greatest
actress the world has ever seen.
To begin with, the child shall be so
educated that she will have no self
consciousness. To Miss Terry's mind
this is the gravest of all faults, and is
fatal to the success of man or woman
on the stage. Already she is learning
to have confidence in herself, and on
her seventh birthday she will make her
bow to the public.
Miss Terry believes that the period
of self-consciousness begins soon after

A couple applied to rural justice vi

tice called the bailiff aside and asked In
a whisper:

''You can't do it," replied the bailju,
'it don't come under yer Jurisdictions -
'We're willin' to pay cash fer it, r,:~
piled the husband, not understanding
the nature of the consult alton. 1--WE
got the money in this here stockin'."
The justice looked grave. Then, ad-
justing his spectacles and addressing
the man, said:

that 'twarn't fer me ter separate hus-
band an wife, an yet, you not only
take up the time O. this here valuable

STRAW AS FER T1LIZER.
Taking All Kinds Into Cons1oe
1t. Value Can be Placed MT Two
Dollars Ton.

The actual value of straw for the fer
ti1;zino elements in the straw itself
may be roughly estimated at about TWO
dollars per ton or little more taxing
all the various straws into consldera-
ton. Clover haulm, from which the
seed has been threshed and which has
lost it's leaves, must be reckoned GULF
siderably higher, and we shoulo say
at three times. that amount, although
we have not reliable analysis at hand
on which to base our estimate. but
the importance of using straw as ped
ding in the stables does not depeno
upon the value of the straw as fer
tilizer, but first upon the value OF q
warm, dry and comfortable bed for the
animals, purpose which may be served
by other material, as sawdust or leaves,
and second upon its power Of absorbing
liquids. Straw easily absorbs twice its
own weight, and when that consists OF
the liquid excrements of the ANIMAL
it makes the soaked straw actually
more valuable than the solid dropPings
of the animals. It saves and conveys
to the soil in form readily available
for plant food, all the nitrates, phos-
pilates and potash which are passed OIL
from the system in that way. 1t has
also a mechanical effect in Tightening
up heavy soil, making it porous, more
absorbent of moisture, more easily
penetrated by plant roots, and also by
frost and air, both of which have i'm
portant effects in working the chemical
changes there which make mineral
matters more readily available. We do
not think the haulm from clover or
other hay threshed for the seed makes
as good bedding as straw, and neither
does corn slower, but either of them
contain more fertilizing elements than
wheat or oat straw, and if cut in pieces
of an inch long they have nearly as
much absorbent power. It is mistake
to put either of these into the manure
without cutting them, because they
have not then opportunity to absorb
so much of the liquid, and because more
extra labor is necessary to handle the
manure with these long stalks in it
than would be required to reduce them
| to inch-long pieces. The same thing
may be said of potato, tomato, squash
and other vines. If cut short they make
valuable additions to the manure heap,
but if put in uncut they are nuisance.

WOODEN WATER PIPES.

spring to the house or barn at almost
no expense in money, and the labor of
digging a trench can be done at odd
times when other work is not pressing.
On hundreds and hundreds of farms the
stock is driven long distances to water
in stormy as well as pleasant weather,
and often with great discomfort to both
attendants and stock, when all the
while the water might be brought right
into the barn. If farmer could once
experience the satisfaction and profit
of having a supply of water thus at
hand and under cover, he would never
permit possible opportunity to secure
this convenience to go to waste. With
the water in the barn, moreover, there
is no longer need for the stock to drink
ice water for five months of the year,
