In all ages of the world it has been

ISLAND IN The JACKPOT.
Sicollet Now a Part of Minneapolis
and In Worth Many
Fortunes.

At one of the most interesting games
of poker ever played in Minneapolis
Nicollet island was put in the jack
pot by man who thought he under
stood the game, but found there were
others who Understood it better. In
1916 Pierre Bottineau took up claim
on the spot where st. Paul now stands.
A year later he traded it for a horse
and COW, which he drove away into
the wilderness, never dreaming that
the land he had almost given away
would in a few years be the site of
a great city. For small sum he pur-
chased large portion of what is now
the business part of Minneapolis and
put up log cabin in little mound
in the center of Nicollet island, SAYS
the Albany Telegram.
Half a dozen of the old settlers. Bot.
tineau among them, had little poker
club. One evening the stakes kept
growing larger and larger until every
jack pot contained small fortune.
Mr.. Bottineau had been losing heavily,
but at last he was dealt hand upon
which he hoped to regain his losses and
win something besides. He was given
four queens and, drawing one card,
secured an ace, leaving four kings as
the only hand by which he could be
beaten. He thought he saw one of
the players discard king, and he con-
sidered his hand invincible and played
it accordingly. Soon all but Bottineau
and the man opposite him dropped
their cards and retired to watch the
game. The table was heaped with
money and the personal belongings
of the two men.
The Pickering light of the candle
shone dimly on the flushed faces as
they watched each other warily out of
the corners of their eyes. All of Bot
tineau's possessions lay on the table,
and it was his bet. He looked at his
hand carefully and then said that all
he had left was Nicollet island, which
he would bet against 5000. The bet
was called, and Bottineau laid down
his four queens with smile of tri.
umph. Amid dead silence his oppo.
nent laid on the table, face up, four
kings and tray. 1t was so still you
could have heard them breathe. Then
Bottineau called for writing materials
and made out deed to the island.
From that day he never touched
card or countenanced gambling in any
form.
After drifting around the country he
vent to Red Lake Falls and took up a
claim and remained there until the
time of his death. He was employed
as guide and scout and was one of
the principal members of the Sibley
expedition. He knew every foot of the
northwest country, having traversed
1t ever since he was ten years old, when
he guided Lord Selkirk's co1onists
from old Fort Garry. When he died,
the last of the old-time Canadian voy-
ayers and guides, who were such an i'm
portant factor in the upbuilding Of the
northwest, passed away.

True, there were not many women

there were few. Chief among them
were the daughters of Don Miguel

to the American officers.
His son was a captain in the Cuban
army; knew him well. Don Miguel
owned acres upon acres of land, and be-
fore the war must have been immensely
wealthy; even now, in spite of Span
fish fines and robberies, he was rich,
and the land, of course, was still
there.

Poultry Notes.

Fowls seldom tire of milk.
Feed makes a difference in any
breed.
Fowls like buttermilk, and it il
highly nutritious.
Seek to improve the poultry every
year.
As warm weather comes on put the
drinking vessels in the shade.
A handsome appearance is worth
one or two cents a pound in selling.
About one foot of space for each
adult fowl should be allowed on the
roost.
While there is but little sale in mar
ket for guineas. they are the nearest
approach to the wild fowls of any
meat known.
Never buy breeding stock or fancy
eggs for their cheapness.
Poultry are early risers, and thrive
best if early breakfast is given them.
In Matching duck eggs. hens, In
many cases, are preferred to ducks.
Ducklings are great eaters, and will
eat almost anything in the shape Of
food.
Good feeding and good care win
make all grades Of poultry more pro-
ductive,
The breed one likes best is the one
likely to receive the best care and at
tention.
Never feed soft feed on the ground;
it is unhealthy. Have smooth boards
or troughs arranged conveniently.
Young and old fowls need enough
nutritious food to keep them in thrift
and good condition.
Overlooking is expensive. 1t not
only costs more for the feed. but the
fowls become over-fat and lay no
eggs.
One advantage with the small flock
| is that there is a certain amount OF
food and labor that costs nothing.
Tobacco or insect powder sprinkled
in the bottom of the nest will drive
away vermin.
A hen is no good after she is two
years old unless she has special quail
tiles as a brooder.
Feather eating is caused by idle.
ness, and the scratching hen has nc
time for such mischief.
Fowls should be well fed from the
start. Once stunted by starvation they
never develop their faculty for useful.
ness.
A small flock well managed will give
larger profit that flock that is
largely compelled to take care of it.
self.
Usually the larger hens lay larger
eggs than the pullets, and their eggs
produce stronger and more vigorous
chickens.
Wood ashes scattered over the poul.

on account of the alkaline properties
