The Petit Bleu of Brussels publishes
an open letter from the Belgian his
torlan. Barral. to Edmond Rostrand.
the author OF "LAiglon." which
touches on q curious point of real or
alleged history. Rostand's wife h .
granddaughter OF Marshal Gerard,
who in 1882 led French army through
Belgium.
The object of this letter is TO ascer-
tain II Nine. Rostand has any papers
OF her grandfather which may throw
lignt on the attack made by his troops
on the British Lion. which stands on
hill at Waterloo. The French SOL
diers. 1t seems. endeavored to over
throw this insulting monument, and 1t
was all that the marshal could do to
prevent its destruction.
Now NJ. Barral has discovered that
though the British Lion is still there.
Its tail has been sadly twisted. and he
wants to know how and when.

hamboyant and aggressive. now trails
as Imply and tamely as that Of the
harmless and necessary cat.

According to NJ. Barral's account, the
French soldiers broke on the lions
tail. which was subsequently replaced
by new one or by the old one in a
new position.
NJ. Barrnl has also interrogated the
proprietors of the Belgian foundry
where the lion was cast about 1880.
They state that the original model had
an elevated tail. and feel quite certain
that the cast was like unto It

PACIFIC THIS SEASON.
O. H. Will has started on his tree
planting contract for the Northern Pa
cific Co. He begins at Steele and
from six to twelve rows oneither side
OF the track, after which he will re-
turn to Steele and work west to Bis
marck- The trees consist chiefly of
cCttonWoods with a small number of
willow cuttings intermingled. In a
few years time this growth will add
muc beauty to the country through
which the Northern Pacific line runs
between here and jamestown and not
a little benefit to the road as a snow
break in the event of bad winter
weather. 1t had been rumored that
the officials Of the road had decided
not to continue the work this year bot
this proves not to have been the case.
MI. Will is doing a thorough job. Last
year the climatic conditions were most
unfavorable for tree planting but the
loss eff the cuttings set out by Mr..
Will along the line was not half as
large as anticipated.
