There is q dearth of thoroughly train
ed men in all professions. The more
exacting the conditions the greater the
need. The thoroughly trained man
nowadays must be- a college man. The
universities are using every effort to
train men men along special lines for def
nlte &C. efficiency in something. The old

culture cunt r Is passing away. The universi-
ty takes men as they are and makes
the most out Of what they can do. Al

Movement Set Afoot for Congressional
Aid Toward the Drainage Of Red ss

Millions Could be Fed from Lands that
Are Subjected to Annual
Overlooking. s.Et:: VI

A movement to get congress to aid
in the better drainage of the Red river
valley will not be passed by this year
and meeting has been called for FAR
go July 16-18 North and South Da-s
kota and Minnesota figure in \, this
movement. The people interested
number about a million, and their
property valuation is about billion:
Over 20,O00,0O0 acres of rich land are
subject to damage and overflow, and
the present heavy rain fall in the val
ley calls attention to the fact that
something must be done to prevent
the possible losses of SO much property
by water standing on the fiat ground.
From lack Of proper drainage an es-
7timated loss of $5OOOOO has occurred
annually and the expenditure of ST.
900, 900, for surveys, locks, dams, res
3eryoirs and bitches would save the
crops in many years Of high water,
and aid the opening of navigation on
the river. Over 100000 people can
be maintained on the land now subject
to overflow il the improvements were
made. "a federal commission of three
is desired to consider the matter and
investigate the work in connection
with a committee from congress. #
The cause Of the floods is due to the
Ice dams near the north outlet Of the
river which form near Pembina, and
the overflow of the water from the
sources Of the river which are several
large lakes in Minnesota, and which
overflow into the southern part of the
river by reason of the earlier melting
OF the ice. Preliminary survey show
that these lakes may be damned and
connected by canals to hold the water
from overflow, into the river at the
southern sources Of the river. The
lakes can be made to act as reservoirs,
with a proper amount Of work and to
hold the water that flows now without
hindrance into the river, and make the
flat country a great sheet of water,
often extending between Fargo and
Pembina and northward, with inter-
mittent spaces of higher ground. % =: :.
f The Importance of this work can be
seen, and a small fraction Of the
money that congress annually spends
to get more water into channels of un-
navigable streams could be far better
spent, and to some practical advan-
tage gained by keeping the water cut

/ HEIRS TO AZ FORTUNE. /:

q A Devils Lake dispatch says A
well-known and popular family of Dew
lis Lake has recently fallen heir to IA
large sum Of money by the settling up
of the smyzer estate in Greater New
York and Philadelp
Many years ago Henry Smyzer left
York, Pa, and accepted a position with
the Wycle & Smith Spice company Of
Brooklyn. He was an inventor, and
through his genius in this direction,
soon became member of the firm. He
invented q spice packing machine for
which the Arbuckle Coffee company of
New York paid him S500,Oo0 and em-
ployed him on a salary of $4,000 a
year. He died in March, 1899, leav-
ing an only son as sole heir to the large
fortune he had accumulated. The
young man had been reared in luxury,
and the sudden acquisition of over a
million dollars worth Of property
turned his head completely, and he inn
mediately plunged into wild dissipa-
ton that would have squandered the
fortune if death had not ended his
career when it did, He died about
year after his father, but during the
short period it is estimated that he
squandered almost million dollars.
The estate has just been settled up
and it is found that there yet remains
about 100000 worth of property con.
sisting of real estate in Philadelphia
suburban residence property in New
York, and small interest in the. Wycle
C Smith Spice company of Brooklyn
The heirs are Mrs. J. o. Baughnan ol
Devils Lake; her mother, Mrs. Susan
smyzer "a Sister, Mrs. Lydia Herr, and
a nephew, Harry smyzer, all of York,
Pa. - : es.5 55 Nv. /
Mr.. and Mrs. j. o. Baughman are
well known throughout North Dakota
they have lived for several years at
LaMoure. where Mr.. Baughman was
engaged IN business. They came to
Devils Lake six years ago and took
charge OF the leading hotel here, which
they conducted successfully for sew
eral years. Last year they disposed
of their interests and bought 100 acres
Of woodland on the east shore of Dew
ills Lake. adjoining the Chautauqua
grounds, which in time will be very
valuable property.
Mr. Baughman is one of the best
hotel men in the country, and now
that he has sufficient capital, it is ex-
pected he will. carry through the pro-
ject that he has been working on for
several months of erecting a modern
hotel in Devils Lake, something that
is greatly needed. = r. ,.s.,

dred spectators sat about on the green
grass in the warm sun and saw the
Teubens trim up the regulars to the
tune Of 10 runs to in nine innings.
The regulars were handicapped by the
fact that their regular pitcher had a
glass arm and they had to substitute
an unframed pitcher, whom the farm
5ers fell upon and sWatted like a new
policeman making an arrest. Then
the farmers had sent down to Sterling
and brought up q new pitcher from
Niobrara, N Neb., where he used to play
with the Niobrara Neyersweats. He
looked as big as an obelisk as he stood
in the box, and when he sent the ball
over the plate it&looked about as big
to the regular batters as a pewee mar
BILE in the deep cleaning. The reu-
bens went to sleep in the in and out
fields and the Nebraska pitcher in the
red suit moved down the batsmen of
the regulars like d haymaker in a. tim
Fothy pasture. The game will go down
in history as liebrara the Redskin,
or the Massacre Of the Mohicans', the
regular team being the Mohicans.
zzS But it was a good game Just the same
and runs came as hard as thousand
dollar bills in a financial panic. The
reubens were E andicapped in their
base running and ploWed about the
base lines like an asphalt paving ma.
chine on a hot street. But they had
their eyes on the ball and when 1t
came over the plate they sWatted It
with melancholy PUNK like the solo
OF a bull frog in a swamp and lum-
bered around the diamond like a
;Glydesdale in a half mile dash. The
reubens wore costumes Of jumper over
5alIs, plow shoes and big straw, hats,
and when they raced about the field
they looked like wooden legged men
in an obstacle race. S2 s35}s .5
