Professor Leasing has modelled Ro

20-ton granite block shipped from

assistance of two Norwegian sculptors
will commence work on the statue al

the company raised enough money tC

The President of the Landsthing

| the Danish West Indies to the United
| States, was the one who delayed the
recent ratifying of the treaty, The
press crittcises his attitude on thu
! ground that the delay was discourteouG
to the United States. The presiden

pers and was much censured for his
stubborn opposition, which, however
only had the effect that the treaty was
ratified by vote of SS to Z.

treaty are playing for delay, but the
measure is now assured OF majority
of two votes in favor Of ratification.

WASHINGTON JANUARY

Each ranch has an overseer. who is re-
qured to make monthly report and to
submit the same TO his employer. The
records of the past years work over all
the ranches show that n total of 1889
head of cattle had been sold for S11252O
and S,249 head of hogs for Sill, SIG. The
total clearance for the year 1900 amounted
to 100000 The expenses, including in
tcrest, reached the sum of $91, SOL. .13.
The most profitable ranch is the one
looked after by Foreman George Ross,
whose yearly report contains the follow
lug statements: Number of acres $50;
cattle, 1.32S; net proceeds from cattle.
S4I, $3.50; hogs, / ,232; cash for the same,
.S1G914.l9; expense per acre, S4.39; corn
bought. 9S,72O bushels.
Mr.. Rankin is Il close observer and soon
picks ont the good qualities of his men.
He is pleasant and accommodating, dar-
ing and energetic. which qualities have
won for him the wealth he now commands.
Beside his farms he has an interest in
several banking concerns, but to these lat
ter he gives little attention, and spends
most of his time riding over the ranches
to see that proper care is being given the
stock. Sometimes he lends a helping hand
in pulling Il steer from the mud; again he
will assist in building Il shed for the fat
tened hogs
In religion the large ranch owner takes
a deep interest. Recently he gave 500
GOO to the United Presbyterian College
located here, and which is now a leading
educational institution in the West.
Tarkio has received many benefits from
his hand in the way of public gifts. which
have made the wealthy farmer Il very
popular man.

lar and picturesque event of the whole
war.
MOsgrove in speaking of the attack on
Morgan's flank on the morning of July
i9, 1858, says that the attacking troops
were the 9TH and Sth Mich. Cav. The 7th
Mich. Cav. served during its entire term
of service with the Army of the Potomac,
and, of course, was not with the troops
pursuing Morgan through Ohio. This is
n very natural error, however, rs the
C0nfederates couldn't have any certainty
as to what troops they were engaging, hut
as matter of fact the troops MOsgrOve
referred to were comprised of picked men
from the ID and 18th Ohio and the Sth
Mich Cav, with two pieces of artillery.
Twelve hours earlier these men had been
selected as fOrlorn hope by Gen. Hob
son, and pushed forward with the great
est possible rapidity with the hope of
| Overtaking Morgan before he could ford
the Ohio River with his troops.
This forlorn hope of picked men was
under The command of Col. y. V. kautZ.
