For many years Edgeley, n. D., has
boosted Of one Of the finest flowing ar
lesinn wells In the State The water
comes gushing out with high pressure
IN O stream as large as a mans arm.
The well Is 1870 feet deep, and the
water Is too saline for domestic use.
A beautiful lake has been made at
small cost, which IN the winter time
furnishes n splendid skating rink for
the young people. The water has been
placed under control, and Is plped
through the streets, affordlng a sys-
tenn Of waterworks, the most cheaply
Of any town in the country.
For many years It has been known
that the water was mixed with gas,
but no effort was made to separate the
two until last fall @. ]. Sturgeon, q
druggist, has at last succeeded In ac-
complshing this after many expert
ments, and now secures gas for light
Ing and heating purposes in his store
and residence. The separation Of the
gas is to be ACCOMPLISHED on a larger
scale, and the streets and residences
are to ~ lighted and the business
houses all heated at a minimum cost
from the same source that furnishes
the town a free waterworks system
The we'll is on the experimental farm
under control of the State Agricultur'
al College.
A number of the larger farms In The
State are equipped with such wells
and in the future their farm houses
may be lighted and heated at the cos
of putting In gas pipes.-St Paul Pho

Best Snakes Come From India.

Snakes and birds form large part
Of the animal importers business.
These creatures come in great numbers
from India, Africa and South Amer
lea. The public is peculiarly fascinated
by snakes, and they are among the
most popular creatures exhibited. The
best specimens Of reptiles come from
India, and a snake twenty feet or more
in length is worth considerable money.
In a cage 1t is the size of the snake
more than its venomous qualities that
attract, and large boa constructor or
python is worth more than a rattle
snake Of smaller size.

Painful Results of Stoutness.

= A, stout Imam lifted himself into a
Heightscar the other morning and took
the only vacant seat. Pretty soon a
lady came aboard, and the stout man
quickly arose to tender her his place.
AS he reached standing position the
car suddenly started. and he sat down
with sound like broken Stat. Blush
ing deeply, he once more struggled to
his feet and was about to step out into
wagon on the track and fiercely ap-
piled the brakes. The car stopped SO
suddenly that the stout man doubled
over on thin young man in the front
seat and almost cracked his slender
neck. The young man pushed the dents
some remarks that were not compli-
mentary to fat people in general.
Then the fat man braced himself for
the third time, and the lady sympathet-
ically remarked. please don't trouble
yourself" But the fat mans spirit
was up. He crowded out into the aisle
and filled it so full that the lady could
not get by him; then, with polite
wave of his hand. he indicated the seat
and backed out of the way.
Thank you" said the lady very
sweetly. But l get off at the next
STOP"

THE rate Of interest is descending so
rapidly that men of capital are justified
in the concern which existing conditions
produce. The Engineering News pro-
nounces this reduction in the United
States during the past 20 years lone of
the most remarkable economic changes
that has ever taken place In this or any
other country Twenty years ago per
cent was the common rate in our larger
cities even on well-secured railway
bonds, and not a few and per cent
bonds were to be found. At present
money is so much cheaper that it is to
be had in any quantity at one-half or
one-third the rate of two decades ago
The new 2 per cent bonds of the federal
government. due in 1890 are quoted at
104, which means that the net interest
obtained by the investor is only about
Ia per cent Earlier issues bring even
less. Railroads are constantly paying
off their old per cent mortgages with
money borrowed on the same property
by means of 81 and 4. per cent mort,
cages. And even in small country places
urban bonds readily float at and less,
though bank rates in some cases are as
high as 6 per cent. The fuctuation from
year to year is not marked but measured
by decades decided downward tenden-
cy is obvious.

The one amazing, if not inexplicable,
thing which appears on the face of the
returns is the vote of the southern
states No part of the country has prof
tied more, few sections have profited so
much, from the wonderful prosperity
under Mckinley and protection as has
the south. Yet every one of the south
ern states, with the exception of West
Virginia, which can hardly be called
southern, has rolled up big majority
for Bryan and for the policies which he
represents, policies which would shut up
every southern factory and bring to an
end the rapidly growing prosperity of
the southern states. The south doesn't
want free trade. Yet the south votes
for a man who declares that protection
is vicious in principle. The south Ian
guished with the rest Of the country un-
der the Wilson law, yet it gives it's cleo
toral vote to man who voted to enact
that law and who has no regrets for his
vote.

The Court Needed POStinU


A trial was progrs ssing at the City
Hall police court when the judge espied
in a group of young girls mingling in
the large audience delinquent wit
ness whom it was urgent he interview.
"Mr. Marshall" his honor exclaimed,
"have that young lady step here"
(Which young lady, your honor?''
81 don't know her name - the one
with the light straw hat and dark
skirt" the court added. The clew was
insufficient.
"What kind of waist?'' inquired the
marshal.
"Ruffle on the sleeves and trimmed
with-er-the usual sort of what d'you
call en-" said the court.
81 understand. You mean leg of NUT
ton sleeves, with-er-whats his name
attachments" replied the marshal in
faint hope Of striking the technical
term.
''No; not exactly" said the judge.
Would you recognize an empire
gown if you saw one, Mr.. Marshal"
upon oath. no: wouldn't swear to
it,"
"Well. | know it wasn't an empire
gown or a Mother Hubbard. | don't
think you understand much about fe-
male apparel"
But here the young lady generously
stepped forward, while a little boy
laughed, and the marshal threatened
to send him to the penitentiary for life.

The prudent man never buys the
fruit which is marked with the highest

economy. He knows that the second

pensive. which in nine cases out Of ten
Is too green to be eaten immedia tely.
1t is held at: high prices because the
dealer knows that it will keep. and as
1t ripens and grows better fit for hui

duced. That is the stage Of the fruit
when the price is lowered for the first
time. 1t is then ripe and in condition
to be eaten. And the prudent man who
doesn't always feel that he has got the
best article only when he pays the
most for it buys his fruit at the marked
down price.-New York Sun.

THEY are beginning to talk about the
jobs Governor elect LaFollette will have
to parcel out. Here is where Mr.. La
Follettes trouble commences. His best
friends will bother him the least about
the loaves and fishes. He has more i'm
portant matters to rack his brains. The
patronage question could be made com
paratively easy if those who think they
have claims would not harass him. He
hasn't enough places with which to re-
ward all his friends. In fact friends
that need rewarding in that way are not
very valuable friends. Mr.. LaFollette
will make his appointments with view
of getting good service, and, of course
will select his appointees from among

ones, and there will5be threats, charges
of ingratitude, etc.. but time will heal

THE ship subsidy bill now before the
National Senate provides certain meas
ures to en- ourage the building up of the
American mercantile marine. This
country now pays out to foreigners near
ly two hundred millions of dollars annu-
ally as freight money on ocean cargoes
American vessels should carry tn bulk
of this freight. 1t costs more to build
and navigate American vessels than
British or German or Swedish vessels,
hence it is proper that a government
bounty should in part at least make up
the difference. All vessels receiving
subsidy are required to carry the ocean
mails of the United States free of charge
and may be impressed as auxiliary cruis-
ers or transports. The Canadian system
of bounties for deep sea fisheries is also
