CHANCE FOR LoWDR BEEF.

H. B. Van Name, manager Of the
Swift Company's packing house inter-
ests in St Paul, said a few days g
that it was likely lower prices would
be made on-meats at the retail shops.
all over the country before many days.
Within the past week on ten days
there has been a drop of from 50 to IS
cents in the price of range cattle at the
stock yards and a drop of an even dol
lar at Chicago. This is only on range
or grass cattle, the price of corn-fed
cattle remaining the same. ct is true
that there has been a drop in the price
of range CATTLE" said Mr.. Van Name.
AS to the effect upon the price of meat
I cannot say. However, there has been
no change in the price of corn-fed cat
tie, and there is not likely to be. They
are very high. Corn-fed cattle are SO
expensive at the present time that it
hardly pays to handle them and we do
not want them" {

q Couple of the Celebrated Come
dian's Practical Jokes.

a Couple of the Celebrated Come.
dams Practical Jokes.
Many stories are told Of Sothern's
original methods of entertaining his
friends at dinner, and possibly the
most amusing is that of the belated
guest. When, late in the dinner, this
friend was announced, Mr.. Sothern ex-
claimed, "Let us all hide under the
table," and down they all went save
Mr.. Sothern himself, who remained
seated. When the tardy guest entered,
Mr.. Sothern rose and received him
with exquisite courtesy, saying, when
for some unaccountable reason, all hid
under the table," After a few mo
ments of discomfort one by n they
crept out and back to their seats.
I heard from both Mr.. Sothern and
Mrs. Vincent this account of an out
burst Of fun at a dinner given by him
in his parlor at the Revere House: AS
the guests, ten in number, were gath
cred about the open fire before dinner
a stout, pompous waiter, afflicted with
short breath, added the last touches to
his dinner table, already spread. Ten
large, square pieces Of bread were
placed with mathematical precision
one at each plate, and then he left the
room to bring the wine. Mr.. Sothern
saw his opportunity and, calling his
dog, cried: Tiger, the bread! Quick,
Tiger!w And the nimble little gray
hound bounded lightly upon the table
again and again as he heard his mas
ter's imperative Fetch the bread!"
until each piece had been removed to
a dark corner near the fire.
Upon the walters return all was ST.
lence. The expectant look upon Mr..
Sothern's face showed only that dinner
was awaited. Standing for a moment,
bewildered, the waiter, seeing no bread
upon the table, hesitatingly turned to
the door, then retraced his steps to
the table, examined it carefully and
hurriedly left the room. He soon re
appeared with a fresh plate of bread.
and again at each plate a piece was
carefully placed, and he retired with
the empty plate. "Quick, Tiger! Fetch
it again! More bread! Sore bread!w
And once more each Piece was re-
moved before the grave waiter reap
peared, and all were again silent. One
look at the table and one at the
guests, and there remained no doubt.
Those poor, hungry actors had eaten
It'll With a look of contempt he an
nouncedH dinner, and after all were
safely seated at the table he brought
a third plate of bread and with a fork
placed it, with a gesture of scorn,
piece by piece for each person and for
the host. The merry seen soon dis
armed his hostility, and before the
evening was over the bread in the cor
ner was revealed.-Mrs. Lucy Derby
Fuller in Century.

A misery landlord was going round
collecting his rents the other day. At
n house he vas greatly interested in
a little girl who watched, open mouthed
and open eyed, the business of paying
over the money and accepting the re-
ceipt. wy
He patted her on the head and start
ed out to search his pockets, saying, 81
must see what I have got for you"
After searching his pockets for some
time he at last brought from a remote
corner a peppermint. AS he handed it
to the girl he said, "And now what will
you do with that?"
The little girl looked at it, then at
him and replied, Wash it."-London

O AND MELONS

Thomas Twiggs of the upper Cannon
Ball, is a farmer who prides himself
on his melon patch. This year. how
ever, he has found his melons broken
UP and half eaten several times. He
determined to find the thief and, gun
in hand, was rewarded after half a
nights watching, in finding the ma
rauders. They were a band of coy
otes, and they would destroy melon
after melon which was not ripe, until
they got a good one. Traps and snares
are of no avail, and Mr.. Twiggs has
been compelled to give up his patch.

DAMAGE FROM WIND.

The wind storm of Sunday night was
very severe in the north and northwest
portion of the state. The damage to
grain was large. There is hardly a
stack or shock of grain intact between
Grand Forks and Larimore. In Grand
Forks county trees were uprooted and
light structures overturned. Reports
from the northwestern portion of the
state Indicate that the wind was as
heavy there as in this vicinity. While
the damage has been quite considerable
a great deal depends now upon whether
it rains on not. If a heavy rain
should fall before the shocks and stacks
can be placed again much additional
damage will follow.

frequent trains will be run from there
to the fair grounds. The N. P. is ex-
Spected to do even better than this and
