B. Of 1. E. Entertainment.

The entertainment Monday night at
the opera house, under the auspices Of
Onward lodge No. al, Brotherhood Of
Locomotive Firemen. was very interest
ing and was largely attended. Engineers
Hagan and Barrett and Firemen Clark
and Blackburn were seated on the sros-
trum during the lecture. Mr.. Barrett
introduced Senator L. A. Simpson who
made remarks appropriate to the, Deck
sion and then introduced Mr.. c. A.
Wilson, second grand master Of the
great brotherhood order, who gave an
instructive lecture, which was followed
by a magic lantern show. BY this, life
on the railroad was beautifully portray.
ed in the numerous moving pictures.
Night Yardmaster RIP Taylor assisted in
changing the slides, and Batteryman c.
H. Thompson kept a watchful eye on
the current Of electricity which was
used in operating the machine.
In the course of his remarks Mr.. Will
son paid a high compliment to the Dick
son B. of L. F. lodge, saying that from a
financial standpoint, as we'll as the
manner IN which every detail Of the
business Of the lodge was handled, that
it ranked second to zone in the United
States. This speaks we'll for the Dick
inson boys and their executive ability.
The railroad men furnished the enter
tainment free to the public and are to be
congratulated on the success Of this their
first effort to entertain.

Whatever other fate might befall It,
naturalists agree that the common
house AZ cannot be drowned and many
experiments have been made in rela-
tion thereto.
Included In such tests was the i'm
mersion Of a fly In q tumbler Of clear
cold water, with q piece Of cardboard
to at the glass and 1oated SO al to
keep the insect beneath the surface.
So little did the fly trouble about
such an obstacle that 1t kept e the
bottom Of the glass, and there for a
quarter Of an hour ran about as freely
as in the freah air, while it at times
crawled across the underside of the
pasteboard as on the ceiling Of a room.
After being immersed for 20 minutes
the fy's movements were less active,
and at Is minutes it turned over on Its
side, apparently dead. It hung sus-
pended in the water just under the
pasteboard, which kept 1t from rising
to the surface, and there 1t remained
for another 25 minutes.
It was then taken out and placed on
Q sheet Of paper, looking to all appear
once dead. Its next fate was to be
buried by being covered with about
half q teaspoonful of fine salt.
At the end of Is minutes the saline
was shaken or. the fly having thus
been completely covered either by
water or by salt for 65 minutes.
Immediately upon it's release the in
sect trimmed its wings and legs active

Jusr now the eastern papers are
going into print about Calamity
Jane," who is styled "the noted
plainswoman." An eastern cor
respondent by the name of Mrs.
Brake is said to have hunted Jane
up in Montana and taken her to
New York to live. The report
says that James last husband was
a drayman at Livingston. Mont,
by the name Of Burke. This may
be. but Jane resided in Dickinson
for about two months last fall and
her supposed hubble gave his
name as Bob Dorsey. He worked
on John Flynn's dray line.

AT jamestown a suit brought
against a school district treasurer
for the collection of SIS on a war
rant issued in payment of certain
charts, was dismissed by Judge
Glaspell, on the ground that the
warrant was illegal, not having
been issued by authority of the
board. The treasurer had refused
to cash the warrant when it was
presented to him for payment.
The court held. however, that the
district would have to pay for the
charts and that it would be neces-
sary to issue a new warrant. So
the chart fend will come out all
right in the end, as is usually the
case with them. The best way
for school boards is to have moth
ing to do with travelling chart men.
They take the districts money
and give nothing of practical
benefit in return.

..Never Rains But It Pours."

1.-THE spasmodic character of railroad
business adds to the difficulty of opera.
tion," says Charles De Limo Hine in the
August Century. "Today there will be
a comfortable volume of business to
handle. Tomorrow it will come with a
rush from apparently unrelated sources.
The writer learned by experience,
whenever a certain Southern connection
reported a large consignment of bananas
''in sight," to look for heavy shipments
of building-stone from the western con-
nection at the same junction point. An
other fact that was never satisfactorily
explained was that, no matter what day
the passenger department selected to
advertise and run a.couple of excursion
trains, that very day witnessed the heav-
lest freight movement of the week."

Manager Conroy: The Mandan Mer-
camille Co. is having a fine machine
trade. ! sold four binders in one day
this week. have just ordered a Is
horse power gasoline threshing engine
for n of the prosperous wheat farmers
living north. Mowers and rakes are
going fast too.
Geo. Drenkel: Mccormick mowers
go like hot cakes this season. Ibid not
look for such a large trade and have had
to place orders for more machinery. l
am also having a good sale OF McCor-
mick binders, which shows that there is
grain in the country to harvest.
Mckenzie & Jones: Yes, we are SELL
ing binders this year. We have sold
more Of these machines in two days this
week than our entire sales amounted to
last season. People will not buy harvest
ers until the wheat crop is assured. so it
is safe to say that a large crop is to be
harvested this season. We are also hav-
ing agood trade in owe and rakes.

RECENTLY the editor of this pa
per received a very nice letter
from the president of the Bobtali
Mines Co. offering a limited
amount of stock for sale. The
offer is respectfully declined as
we do not care to help the Min
neapolis promoters out to any ex-
tent at this time. According to
the presidents statement, how
ever, $4,000 has already been
realized from the sale of stock, so
we Judge that the Minneapolitanss
are doing a rushing business, and
no receiver will be needed so long
as the money pours in at the pres
ent rate.
