fouling the buildings, could be elm

constructing chimneys and stocking
furnaces that prevail in Germany
were adopted here. at is not every
strapping laborer who can shovel
coal who is permitted to stoke a
boiler furnace in Germany" saws Mr..
Mason. The stroker in that country
must learn the theory and practice
OF economical scientific firing, where-

CRATE surface as to secure the most
perfect combustion. The use of fuel
briquettes for domestic purposes in
Berlin also tends largely to the pre-

Grip came into my possession in this
wise: One day in April I CHANGED to
meet couple of urchins who had been
robbing and destroying crows nests,
thinking they were doing vast good
for the farmers by exterminating the
robbers of their cornfields. 1 had long
believed that the crow was not so
black as he was painted, and that for
every kernel of corn he stole he de-
stroyed many grubs and insects, which
would have injured the crops far more
than the bird could have done with all
of his depredations.
A sorrier object l never saw than
this poor kidnapped baby crow crouch
ing in the folds of ragged and tat
tered old hat. He was very ugly in his
half-tiedged feathers, with large head
and long beak, but he looked SO pitiful
that my heart went out to him at once.
We soon had made bargain. The
boys then ran off with happy faces and
still happier hearts, clutching few
dimes in their little fists, while pro-
ceeded homeward with my newly
found pet wrapped in my handker-
chief.
AS soon as 1 had reached home l
placed him in goodsized chicken
crate under large pine-tree in the
front yard, where l fed him bread and
milk, which he gulped down greedily,
and, like Oliver Twist, kept crying for
more, until l thought his appetite
never would be appeased.
Grips. babyhood did not last long.
He grew so rapidly that in three weeks
he was full-hedged crow, with beau
tiful glossy black feathers, of which
he was very proud.
A large bed of pansies near the
house, which was my pride, was his es-
! pecial delight. Every morning l
would pluck the blossoms, which were
so like little faces that smiled up to
me. Grip was always on hand to assist
me; but he would ruin every flower
by shipping it off, and he did it so spite
| fully, l knew that he was Jealous of the
! flowers l loved.
go way, Grip, go way" I would
say to him, sometimes using little
switch to drive him Off The moment
! l was out of sight, however, down he
would swoop again into the pansy-bed,
and snip, snip would go their heads.
AT times Grip would be very loving.
Alighting on my shoulder, he would
cuddle down close to my face, utter
ing soft little croaking notes. Then
he would slyly pull the pin from my
collar. and begin snatching at the hair
| pins in my braids. At other times,
when 1 called him, he would not come
to me, but would alight near me, and
look at me so impishly while pleaded:
Come here, Grip; come, Grippy, come
here"
One day l was coaNing him thus as
he hoped along on the top board of
the fence. He put his head down and
seemed to be choking and swallowing.
After several such spasms he uttered
the words: go way, Grip, go way"
very distinctly. l could hardly be-
lieve my ears. Grip my crow cola
say three words: go way, Grip"
For long time he had chartered and
made cultural noises. He would
! scream and laugh like young imp.
But now he could talk, and, aside from
being surprised, l was delighted. He
soon learned to say: $50, way, Grip"
without effort, and not long after that
l heard him say: "Come here, Grip;
come, Grippy, come here" in the same
coaxing tone l used to him.
Rainy days We're his delight. Then

FOR GOOD SHOWS.
That is the Object of the Recently
Organized Flax Belt Circuit.

For several years past the theatre
goers in the towns along the Great
Northern in this section of North Da-
kota have had to content themse Ives
with an inferior class of shows, as
the better attractions would not make
this territory. The opera houses
along this line were small and big
shows could not put on their attrac-
tions with anything like satisfaction,
hence they travelled to and from the
coast by way of the N. P.
During the past year Messrs. Evans
& Small, in order to overcome this
difficulty, organized what is known as
the Flax Belt circuit, inducing the
building of new opera houses and the
charging of the old ones, 70 now the
biggest attractions can BIZ produced in
metropolitan style. The towns form
ing this circuit are as follows: May
vile, Northwood, Larimore, Inkster,
Park River, Milton, Langdon, Michi-
gan City, Lakota, Edmore, Devils
Lake, Churchs Ferry, Cando, Leeds,
York, Willow City, Bottineau, Souris,
Granville, Minot, Harvey, Fessenden,
Darlington and New Rockford.
This opens up a new and inviting
field to the better attractions, and no
trouble has been experienced in secur-
ing the very best of the coast shows
for the coming winter. Mr.. Small,
who is the active manager of the cir
cult, has the exclusive booking for the
entire Is houses, which makes it i'm
possible for a cheap show to get in.
He has a system of investigating COM
panies which is thorough, and there
is no possibility of an inferior attrac-
ton getting a night or the circuit.
The fact that six companies have al
ready been refused admission because
they could not come up to the stan
dard, is evidence that great care is
being exercised in booking.
The Evans company is now play
ing the circuit, opening at Mayville
on the 9Th. The company consists Of
nine people, the majority of whom
have been stars of companies playing
the big cities. 1t is the best balanced
company that has ever appeared in
this state. They will be here for
three nights, Sept. 25-26-27.

Pres. Hill Says Decision Is Just What
He Expected.

st. Paul, Mimi, Feb. 24.-The news
of the United States supreme courts
decision against the application of the
state of Minnesota for leave to file a
suit against the Northern Securities
Co. was received in this city, today.
without surprise. President Hill of
the Northern Securities Co, when noti-
fed, refused to discuss the opinion of
the court, contenting himself With the
remark that it was no more, than he
had anticipated several weeks ago.
Governor Van SAINT was not inclined to
express any views on the matter and
Attorney General Douglass was also
averse to saying anything.
1t Is known, however, that since the
ney General Knox that he would bring
suit against the Northern Securities
Co, under the Sherman act, the state
officials here have looked for just such
a decision as that announced by the
United States supreme court. SUCH ac-
ton by the federal officials will not be
allowed to stop further action by the
state of Minnesota, but no definite ar
rangement has vet ben made as to
what form such proceedings Will take.
Later in the day, Governor Van SAINT
gave the following brief statement 10

1T cannot be stated positively what
will be the method of procedure until
the text of the supreme court on the
