MIR. j. nj. Riddle, Jr., is get
ting to be champion shot of the
town. Last Friday he killed
three will ducks from one dove
with a doublesbarrel shot gun
without moving cut of his tracks
breaking his gun and reloading
both barrels before shooting the
third duck. His gun snapped
the last time or he would probably
have gotten four ducks. The
gentleman who accompanied him
on the hunt was SO interested in
seeing where Jim's ducks fell that
he forget all about shooting until
the drove had gotten out of gun
shot reach.

Diamond Cement.

Diamond cement is made as follows:
Take five ounces of fine gelatine, four
ounces of water, and one ounce of gla-
cial acetic acid. Let the mixture stand
for several hours and then heat it to
effect solution, after which add ten
grains of carbolic acid to preserve the
cement. The following formula Is
given for making the we'll known ce-
ment of Pompeii, or universal cement:
Dissolve eight ounces Of sugar in
twenty-four ounces Of water in glass
flask on a water-bath. and to the thin
syrup add two ounces Of slaked lime.
Keep the mixture at temperature of
about 70 to rs degrees centigrade for
three days, shaking frequently; then
cool and decant the clear liquid. Dilute
six and half ounces of this liquor
with as much water, and in the mix
ture steep sixteen ounces OF fine gela-
tine for three hours after heating to
effect solution. Finally add to the
mixture an ounce and half of glacial
acetic acid and fifteen grains pure car
bolic acid.

PEDDLER ANCESTOR.
Founder Of Marquis of Lansdowne's
House Humble, but Energetic.

Founder of Marquis of Lansdownes
House Humble, but Energetic.
Writing of the Marquis Of Lans-
downe, the London Chronicle says:
Though he is one of the richest men
in parliament, and has a house in
Park Lane worth fabulous sum, the
new foreign secretary is, or ought to
be, man of strong human sympa-
thies. He owes his title and estates
to a pedler, who was so poor that he
lived in Paris for three weeks entirely
on walnuts. Managing to earn an
honest penny, he took out patent for
q letter copying machine, wrote on
art and science, practiced chemistry
and physics, summoned the first
meeting of the Royal Society at his
lodgings, was appointed an army
physician, invented double bottomed
ship to sail against wind and tide,
founded iron works and opened lead
mines, began a fishery and timber
trade, and left q fortune to his sons.
Such was the founder of the house
of I.ansdowne. Whether his pedler
ancestors will has Influenced Lord
Lansdowne in taking the foreign Sec
retaryship or not we do not know, but
in a remarkable will that he left be-
hind the founder Of the house conjur-
ed all his ancestors to labor in pub
lie works" at their peril. "As for lega-
cies for the poor" said the testator,
Il am at a stand; as for beggars by
trade and election, I give them Moth
ing; as for impotents by the hand of
God, the public ought to maintain
them; as for those who have been bred
to no calling nor estate. they should
be put upon their kindred;
wherefore I am contented that l have
assisted all my poor relations, and put
many into a way of getting their own
bread; have labored in public works,
and by inventions have sought out real
objects of charity, and I do hereby
conjure all who partake of my estate
from times to time, to do the same at
their peril. Nevertheless, to answer
custom, and to take the surer side,
give EGO the most wanting of the
parish wherein l die"

=A NEW TRA AIN.
Omaha May Institute Service
into sioux City FSr Country
n. K "|5.y Shoppers. q .tG H.

x The Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis
and. Omaha Railway Co. again is
considering the ACCESSIBILITY Of put
ing iuto it's service q daylight paseen-
ger. train between :, Worthington,
Mimi, and Sioux City, and it ls said
the prospects os the train going on
are very good. The distance to be
Covered is niuety-two miles and the
road runs through one of the richest
strips Of country IN entire northwest.
1t embraces such good towns as Sib-
ley, Sheldon, Alton and LeMars.
L he proposition is to run an accomo-
dation, which will make all the stops,
leaving Worthington between = and
s o'clock in the morning and arriving
in Sioux City about 10 o'clock. 1t
would leave Sioux City about four
O'Clock in the afternoon. This per-
haps would be the best train for the
retail stores running intozSioux City.
The original movement among the
business men of Sioux City for this
train was started almost ten >years
ago by James V. Mahoney, who Was
commissioned for the old commercial
association. Mr.. Mahoney -argued
from the stand point of friend of
the railroad and also a friend Of 500
City. He convinced the Omaho. Of
fcials that the train would be a
money maker but the business men
of Minneapolis and St. Paul objected
so strenously that the project was
abandoned. Three or four times af-
ter this failue Mr.. Mahoney took the
matter up with General Manager
Scott and General Passenger Ageut
Teasdale aud both we're in favor Of
giving the train trial. One thing
and another has interferred with the
plan until now, when it seems that
Chas. l.. Mckinley, commercial agent
for the company, is about to succeed
in his endsavor to have train put on.

Dogs Accustomed to Idlsnsss Can Not
20 Draw sledges.
Indian dogs have been at premium
in the Klondike, the demand for them
being so great that they were bought
up rapidly at prices equal to those
which a good horse would fetch else
where. All sorts and conditions OF
men found their way to the gold re-
gions, and nobody troubled himself to
inquire into their antecedents, but IN
quiry came fast enough when dog
was in question. Here the value was
in inverse ratio to the civilization.
Lately, however, it has been found
that dogs accustomed to complete idle
ness can be utilized in the drawing
of sledges. The discovery was made
when the Canadian government de-
cided to send police force to the
Klondike. An agent went to- the most
likely spots in the northwest to pur-
chase dogs for the force, and reported
that he could not get dog that was
a dog" for any price within the limits
of reason. The government then sent
out another agent, with orders not to
be too particular in his selection. The
result, according to Mr.. J. B. Burn
ham, in Forest and Stream, was a
company of all sorts of creatures call
ed dogs. They were quite civilized
dogs; for instead of going among the
Indians to purchase them, the agent
went down to Lake Superior and
bought up everything in the form of
a dog. from performing poodles to the
pet dogs of BARRIERS shops. And the
strangest part Of the business was
that the purchase was not failure.
Many of the dogs were turned into
useful sledge animals, and the dogs OF
civilized man were soon in competition
with the native teams. One set of fine
mongrels, about the size Of large
Scotch terriers, none of them weighing
forty pounds, drew load Of 5000
pounds over the ice of Lake Bennett.
The sledge was always started for
them, but once started they kept it
moving The owner, half-breed,
would follow, out of sight, encourag-
ing them by voice and by system OF
rewards. Dogs previously educated to
other business acquitted themselves
we'll.

New Passenger Train.

Sunday, april 2Stb, the Omaha
road will increase it's passenger train
service on the Sioux Falls line by ad-
ding night passenger train between
Worthington and Sioux Falls. l.
This train will leave Sioux Falls at
10 p. M, Luverne 11:45, arriving here
at 1:30 a. M, returning leave here at
4 a. NJ, Luverne $50 arriving At
Sioux Falls 7:15 a. m. This train
will have a sleeper which will be run
through to the twin cities. Two
sections Of the sleeper will BE re-.
served for Worthi"gton. There is
no doubt but what these trains will
be literally patronized, at any
rate it provides excellent service on
this line. By being able to secure
a berth here for the cities travellers
will find it a great convenience as it
the most comfortable way to go to
the cities, taking a sleeper on arrival
at destination be rested and ready
for full days work, the price of

King kllama.

Khama is king of the Bamangwato
tribe. His 10000 subjects are called
Bechanas, because they live In Bechu-
analand; but they resent this name
themselves. and do not acknowledge
it as q tribal term. Khama Is an old
man now-lean, hungry and as ugly;
as can be: but he is very good old
man, and in his way has probably
done mo real good to the cause Of
the natives in his part Of the country
than any other two dozen native
chiefs. He will not allow any intoxi-5
eating liquor whatever to be sold any
where within his dominions. He and
all his people are strict teetotallers.s
and there is heavy fine for making
tschuala, or Kaff1r beer, compare
lively harmless decoction of fermented
mealie mel. 3Ef4

Ranks and Bank Bills.

It appears that banks were in ex-
istence in Rome, Greece, Babylon.
China and other ancient places be-
fore the Christian era. The earliest
records OF European banks now in ex-
istence are those of the Bank Of Ven
ice, founded in A. D., I'LL; the Bank
Of Barcelona, founded in 1401; the
Bank Of Geneva, founded in 1407, and
the Bank Of Amsterdam, in 1909. The
Oldest bank notes of which there H.

back as 2657 B. C. The Chinese called
1t flying money" and they were In
form similar to the bank notes OF the
present time. They bore such mot
toes as produce all you can," Spend,
with economy" and the like. These
bills bore on the fare the penalty for
making limitations of them.
