PRAIRIE BREEZES
THE LUCKY PRIVATE CITIZEN.

THE LUCKY PRIVATE CITIZEN.
I wouldn't care to be the Gear, :.
However great his riches are,
I'd rather be a simple soul
And have some chance Of keeping
whole,
Lord, howe'er humble be my plight,
Just preserve me from dynamite, T.
Let those who will be queens and kings,
I'm satisfied with humble things.
I wouldn't care to go to bed
And wake up without any head
Upon my shoulders and my legs
Smashed up and split like broken eggs,
Let him who will be autocrat,
In palace grand-give me a fiat,
Where I may live and sip my tea,
And fear no one would poison me.
To wear a crown upon my head
And tremble at a mouse's tread
Somehow would always seem to me
AS the worst incongruity,
I wouldn't care to have command,
OF all the soldiers in the land
And be afraid, tho l be crowned,
Of my own shadow On the ground.
l really wouldn't relish food H| ~
If when I ate, | sat to brood
And wonder if my cook did brew
Some strychnine in my oyster stew,
If every time I should fall i'll
I couldn't take the doctors pill,
Without,a fear that he might be
A nihilist, to7poison me.
I wouldn't care to sleep at night
Mid dreams of bombs and dynamite,
Nor peer beneath the bed and list
For some dread, hidden nihilist,
| When l would drive, to save my pate
To wear a crown or armor plate,
| And travel in an armored car
| Would spoil the fun of being Gear.
Let those who will be queens ani
kings.
I'm satisfied with humber things,
The czar of arms and legs bereft
Is only half a car. What's left
Would only serve to indicate
Royalty's melancholy fate, y
And he's most fortunate of men
Who's only private citizen. .

WHAT CAUSES DANDRuFFs

GREATEST EUROPEAN AUTHOR
ITY ON SKIN DISEASES, SAYS
IT'S A GERM.
The old idea was that dandruff is
scales of skin thrown off, through a
feverish condition of the scalp. Prof.
Unna, Hamburg, Germany, European
authority on skin diseases, says dand-
ruff is a germ disease. The germ bur-
rows under the scalp, throwing up lit
tie scales of cuticle, and sappdng the
vitality of the hair at the root. The
only hair preparation that kills dand-
ruff germs is Newbro's Herpicide.
Destroy the cause, you remove the
effect" Not only cures dandruff, but
stops falling hair and causes a luxur-
liant growth. Delightful hair dressing.

The positive assurance that the Bis
marck. Washburn & Great Falls rail-
way will be extended to Washburn at
once-the contract having been let.
will be welcome news to the people Of
Washburn as well as to all the new
settlers in that portion of the Missouri
slope. The indications point strongly
TO the building UP of an important
trading and commercial center at
Washburn.s A system of water works
and electric light plant + to be put in
and the permanent improvements of
the railroad company at Washburn
promise to be quite extensive. OF no
little moment to Bismarck. is the fay
orable decision on a ferry to connect
Washburn with west-Missolri
points, thus bringing the people of Mer-
Ger and Oliver counties in closer touch
with the capital city in trade and bus
mess. The hundreds of new settlers
now filing on homesteads and purchas-
ing lands from the Washburn land
company means a more rapid develop
Inent OF the Missouri slope section than
has been anticipated and the extension
of the 500 and other lines to Bis
marekma not always lie in the grave
yard of forlorn hopes. The season of
l9o1starts out well. Never were the
prospects better. Bismarck having sur
vived nd increased steadily in popula-
ton. and wealth on prospects" for
many years it really seems quite re-
freshing to enjoy some realization OF
the great and unprecedented wave of
prosperity that is now sweeping over
the whole country. r:s p.

&%S All is not unalloyed happiness in

sprcut peas; one application Of the
Red River ooze would make it so fer
tile that corn would grow like giant
oaks and a ladder would be required

The water is a rich, dark brown,
putrescent mixture. Mixed in with
the Wahpeton and Breckenridge sew

Allow a horse a reasonable time to
rest after feeding. i
Mares bred in the fall will endure

A dumb, stupid colt can never be

VERY UNFORTUNATE.
Capt. J. N. Forsyth. U. S. N on the Schley.
Sampson Controversy.

Kansas City. Mo, Aug. .J.-Capt.
James Mcqueen Forsyth, L. s. ~. who
had Charge of the naval station at Key
West during the Spanish american
war. spent today in Kansas City on his
way from San Francisco to his home in
Philadelphia. To a Times reporter capt
FORSYTH talked Of the Schley Sampson
"onti ovorsy and that paper. tomorrow
will quotc him as saying:
While we have been instructed by
the navy department not to discuss the
merits of the case. everyone knows that
the navy looks upon the controversy
rs an unfortunate affair. We believe
there was plenty Of glory for al con
cerncd. The fact that a junior man
was plac ced in command above his sen
ior is responsible for the whole bust
ness. Sampson was q captain and the
18th ranking officer Of the navy. No
one ever thought of him as the sue
ceSSor Of Admiral Sicard and | don't
believe he ever thought of ii himself
but he was familiar to the people of
Washington and they decided to place
him in command.
"Of course the officers who outranked
him did not like it. Ii is not to be eX-
pected that they would. Hut Washing
ton said Sampson and that settled the
matter. Schley was among the officers
who outranked Sampson and he was
thrown directly under the juniors
command. He naturally felt the promo
ton more than many others.
THE battle of Santiago was one of
the most brilliant in history. Regard
less of who was responsible for such
effective execution. there was glory
enough for both Sampson and Schley.
The controversy only serves to dim the
brilliancy of the victory and it is great
ly 10 be deplored. That anyone should
question the bravery of either of the
men is particularly unfortunate and
wholly unjustified.'
Sapt. Forsyth. who will be retired,
Sept. 25. has been associated with Ad-
moral Schley and Sampson at different
times during his long life in the navy.
When he left Key West he took COM
mand of the battleship Indiana. Later
he was chief of staff to Admiral Wat
son in charge of the Asiatic squadron
and for the past several months was
second in command at the Mare Island
navy yard at San Francisco. Capt.
Forsyth left for St. Louis. tonight,
where he will remain few days be-
fore proceeding to Philadelphia.

''Prohibition." She said that total alb
Stinence and prohibition are closely in
terWoven. and she had never met in
Maine total abstainer from intoxi-
cants OF every form who was not n
firm believer in prohibition. She de
cl;ired that prohibition at its worst is
better than any form OF license at its
best. She denounced the diSpcnsary
system in vogue in Georgia and South
carolina.
She reviewed the history Of the Maine
prohibitory law and said il is better
enforced than are the respective fea-
lures OF license laws. She referred to
the election of Rev. Samuel F. Pearson.
the Prohibition candidate for Shei iff
in Cumberland county, last fall. as an
evidence that public sentiment is in

TO FORT KENT.
Bangor & Aroostook Plans a
5O-Mile Extension.
Would Run Its Line from Ashland
Through to Fort Kent.
Splendid Timber Lands and Wafer Powers 10
Be Opened Up.

Bangor, Me-, Aug. 26.-The Bangor
K Aroostook Railroad Co. has petition
ed the State Board of Railroad Com
mssioncrs for approval of location and
authorization to extend its tracks
from Ashland to Fort Kent, distance
Oh 30 miles.
The proposed extension will traverse
a region rich in timber and natural
beauties, reaching Eagle, Portage and
OIhcr lakes. and passing through the
Fish river country where there is an
abundance of timber and where excl
lent water powers will be made avail
able by the providing Of transporta-
tion facilities.
The new line is one more step in the
idea long aimed at by President Cram
Of the T.. q A., which is that line Of
transportation should be offered 50
that il viii not be necessary to send a
single stick of Maine lumber to New
Brunswick in order that it may be
manufactured and sent to market.
The new line will be built by a cor
poration which will be known as the
road commissioners will have a hearing
upon the proposed location at the Ban
cor House on Saturday. Aug. 81. at 10
O'clock
While the new road will be built by
a separate corporation the directors Of
which will be Franklin w. Cram, Al
bet a. Burleigh. Benjamin B. Thatch-
er. Edward Stetson and Frederick II.
Appleton. it will be controlled by the
e. & A. and Will be a part of that sys-
ten. All of the directors in the new
| road are large stockholders in the Il.
& a.
The capital stock of the new road
| is all subscribed for and the work of
building it will be commenced as soon
as the railroad commissioners have ap-
proved of the location. Men who are
familiar with the situation are of the
| opinicn that the new line will cause
| the erection of several new saw mills
| in the Fish river region.
