Settles the COunterfeits,

When a person comes into .'Old Man"
Smiths cigar store and hands him
money In return for something pur-
chased, the old man can ascertain by a
single glance or touch whether the
money is good or counterfeit. If the
money is bad, he puts it under the to-
bacco cutter, or his money tester, as he
calls it. and sewers it in two.
One day last week rough looking
young man came into his store and
asked for a piece Of chewing tobacco.
At the same time he laid so cent
piece lightly on the counter. The old
man picked up the money and looked
at it. 1t had dull color and was not
as heavy as an ordinary half dollar
The proprietor walked over to where
the tobacco was, and, taking down a
piece Of the brand the young man had
called for. he pretended to put it under
the tobacco cutter: but instead he Slip
ped in the counterfeit piece and cut It
into halves. He then handed the two
pieces to the young man and command.

did.-Chicago Record.

How Jud Carries Pembina.

Correspondent of Fargo Forum: While
1 was in the senate hall this big man
came in with package of candy. He
scattered them among his neighbors and
then threw some over among the mes
senger boys and seemed greatly amused
to see them scramble for the sweet bits.
He saw the senate in miniature in that
company of boys. One little fellow did
not get any, and showing his big hand
down into the package, he went quietly
over and filled that little chaps lap.
They tell me that is what he does all the
time up in Pembina county, and that is
the reason he has represented his county
in the senate from the organization of
the state, l could not help feeling of
appreciation for the man that wanted to
sweeten and gladden. that boy who got

To Stop Horse Stealing.

Thefts of horses are becoming so COM
mon and are conducted upon such
grand basis out in the western part of
the state that stockmen there want some
legislation that will render it more diff
cult for thieves to gather up horses by
the carload and ship them off to another
state and sell them. In the past few
months several daring thieves have gath
cred horses off the range by the carload
and shipped them away to other states
for sale. 1t is stated that law consti-
tuting the sheriff of each county stock
inspector, who should examine the brands
of animals shipped out for sale to see
that the shipper ships none but his own,
would tend to prevent this wholesale
thieving. There are two men arrested
and held for trial in Billings county
charged with having made away with
several carloads of horses, and Sheriff
Goodall of Dickinson has gone to Iowa
after third man who made away with
carload of horses several weeks ago.

and how far the assembly chooses to
allow them to regulate the art and
science of healing. There was an inter-
esting petition presented to the senate
yesterday from Mrs. Stevenson, mag
netic healer at Grand Forks. 1t was
full of interesting and entertaining state
ments, the petitioner stating that she
had been in the magnetic healing bus
mess for year and had worked some
wonderful cures. All branches of heal
ing were simple and certain as A B G to
her. She alluded also with mournful
sorrow to the number of victims of the
medical profession that might be enum-
Grated in Grand Forks alone. The peti-
tion was on motion of Senator Noble

South Dakota Doings.

Pierre, Feb. 2e.-The senate refused
ing out the emergency clause in the
general educational bill and making it
compulsory for school districts to fur
nish copies of Webster's International
dictionary. A sharp debate and charges
of collusion were engaged in, resulting
in conference committee which will

the bill authorizing counties to expend
a hundred dollars each on the cure of
habitual drunkards. This last bill was

mittee on public health, has the amended
bill prepared and it would have been

An Effort Will Be Made to Elect a
Senator in Montana Today.
Helena, Feb. 26. = The republicans
switched from Mantle to Senator Carter
and will make an effort again tomorrow
to elect senator. Carter received 26
votes, all republicans of both houses
present. There are 42 republicans in
the assembly and with all the members
present 48 are required to elect, The
republicans hope to get enough votes
from John MacGinnis to elect Carter.
They rely on the rupture between Heinse,
who controls the MacGinnis vote, and
Senator Clark to furnish votes enough,
with the independent democrats who
are known to be friendly to the interests
best represented by the republican party
in the last campaign in Montana, to elect
Mr.. Carter. Charges of bribery are
made.

TAKES 1T COOLLY.
Frank Hamilton Apparently Resigned
to His Ten Year Sentence.

to His Ten Year Sentence.
Minneapolis, Feb. 26.-"There is no
getting out of it now," said Frank Ham
lton this morning, as he sat smoking his
pipe in the cell which he is soon to leave
for quarters in the states prison. "My
attorneys inform me that there is no new
evidence in my behalf strong enough to
secure new trial. The knowledge that
majority of the jury favored me so long
and the statement of one of them that
although he believed me innocent from
the start, he finally concurred in the
verdict, makes the burden still heavier
to bear. 1t is comfort and a solace to
me to feel that public sentiment is with
me even now when the prisons gates are
yawning for me. Of course, what the
members Of the jury say now cuts abso-
lutely no figure. A juror cannot impeach
his action after the verdict has been
rendered. The die is cast and 1 must
abide by it, bitter though the cup may
be. 1t is almost incredible that a man
who admits to my face that he believes
me innocent would nevertheless swear
my life away"
Hamilton's sentence was pronounced
shortly after 5 o'clock. The general
public was not admitted to the closing
scene in the drama. Two hundred men,
however, were present. Hamilton had
nothing to say and his attorney made a
final plea for mercy before the court
pronounced the sentence. The sentence
has revived the discussion as to Hamil-
toms guilt. Recent disclosures from the
jury room do not tend to strengthen the
belief in the efficacy and justice of the
jury system. Hamilton's friends are
planning to get up petition now to be
presented at the proper time for his
pardon. Some people expected the pun
ishment would have been five years, the
minimum sentence on account of the
jury's recommendation for mercy.

SINKING SHIPS.

They Don't Linger In MsdOcean. but

What becomes Of the ships that sink
at sea? Do they go all the way to the

about like so many ghosts half way be-

There is no foundation wn;,tever for
such notion. though many persons
have it. Any object that will sink be
meath the surface of the sea will go all
the way to the bottom. The pressure
encountered on the way down. which is
simply enormous in the deeper parts.
has nothing to do with the object s
sinking. for it is exerted on the object
as well as on the water, thus equalizing
the conditions.
The reason why the object sinks to the
bottom is that water is not compressi-
BILE; at least it is so little so that it's den
sity at the bottom of the sea is only tri-
he greater than it is at the surface. Sci
entists tell us that the water at the but
tom is just about as much denser than
the water at the surface as sea water
is denser than fresh water.
This slight difference in density
therefore, does not and cannot stop the
downward course of a sinking ship OF
any object that is heavy enough to
sink rapidly beneath the surface. Pres.
sure, as we have said, is not factor
in the case at all.-Chicago Record

ROUTT COUNTY IN CLOVER.
General Conditions of the District
Looking Prosperous.

LOOKING prosperous.
Dave Green will return to Routt
county tomorrow after spending a
few days in the city visiting his
parents and shaking hands with
friends.
Mr., Green is very enthusiastic
about Rputt county and the prog
ress 1t is making and thinks it one
of the coming centers of industry.
When approached by THE TRIB-
UNE as to the present conditions
and the future, he said:
Two companies are now operat-
ing in the field, and that the COM
inE summer season will find no
less than ten and probably fifteen
going after coal, oil and copper.
During the present year there
has been hundreds of acres of
mineral land filed on and during
the last four weeks the county
clerk at Craig has had three depu-
ties filing certificates of location
and making out deeds.
Il am drilling for the North
western Oil and Coal company and
am here purchasing carload of
tools and casing for we'll No. /,
which will be sent over to Routt
county tonight. My company
struck a small streak of oil a few
days ago but it was not sufficient
to pay profit for pumping and
we are drilling it deeper.
"The Northwestern company, if
they are successful with this we'll
now going down, another string
of tools will be started at once
and so on.
THE land in our vicinity, that
is about fifteen miles west of
Steam boat Springs, has increased
at least 10 per cent and the real
estate values at Steamboat have
nearly doubled in the past year
But very little building is going
on there at the present time, the
roads being in such bad shape
that it is impossible to secure the
necessary building material. The
snow has been about two feet deep
since January 10, up to the pres
ent time, but it is disappearing
now. After June lst there will be
a veritable building boom.
THE California and Colorado
company and the San Joaquin Oil
company have representatives on
the ground acquiring mineral
lands and Philip Zang and his
company are preparing to drill in
the Yampa valley. Their agent is
there now securing all the avail.
able land possible,
There is considerable propect,
ing for copper going on near
Steam boat; among others are Drs
Newman and Gould who are work
ing in tunnel which is now abou:
forty feet to the breast. The rock
carries about IL per cent copper.
The inha bitants of Steam boat
are much elated over the propects
of road entering there from

cite companies are making big
preparations for a boom by order
