Dear sir: You buy you horsehoes and

TO hammer them out by hand, when you
can buy as good or better perhaps, ready
made 10 your hand, for little more tla1

What do you think Of a painter who
goes on buying his Iinseed oil and white
lead, and mixing, and Uniting by hand,
and charging his time for work that Is fir
better done than he can do 81, done by
machinery, done as your horseshoes and
nails are made.
Mistake isn't ~
He Is wasting his chance In the world.
There is no better stuff to DO business
with than good horseshoes and paint;
and no better work than putting them on.
Good horseshoes we'll put on It's the
putting 'em on that makes you a black.

Adverse Recommendation.

Peril W. Frisby. attorney for the trus-
tees of the Third Baptist Church. colored.
holding property in square 80, between 4th
and 5th and and @ streets northwest has
applied to the District Commissioners for
permission to pay arrearages of taxes for
several years without penalties and inter-
est. Mr.. E. W. W. Griffin. the acting as
sessor has mace a statement to the Com
missioners concerning the matter, In which
he reviews the record Of the property and
submits an adverse recommendation. Mr..
Griffin says:
After a careful review Of the facts in
this case, it would appear the trustees
failed, through their own neglect, to pay
the taxes. as they were aware no deed had
passed from them to any one, and II 1t
were assessed to the wrong name the at
tention of the Office should have been d.
rected to the same long since, and they
should not have allowed the matter to
slumber. There is no apparent reason for
abatement of the penalties in this case, as
the act of February Is, 1902. to receive ar
rearages of taxes at per cent per annum
affords ample relief" Commissioner Ross.
in charge Of tax matters, has approved the
action of the acting assessor.

SNOW-BOUND TRAINS IN.
Three Hundred Passengers and Mails
Reach st. Paul.

4uTee aunoreo Passengers ana MAILS
Reach st. Paul.
ST. PAUL, March 21.-Three hundred
Great Northern passengers from points
west OF the eastern Montana line. twenty
tons of mail matter and car after car Of
baggage all snoW-bound in North Dakota
since last Friday, reached St. Paul last
night. The first section Of the through train
arrived last evening, breaking blockade
that lasted $50 hours.
Passengers told stories Of old-time from
tier privations. They were on the first
east bound overland train snow bound and
were caught at Stanley. N. D., a station
which consisted Of q sidetrack and cattle
yard. -,4
From Thursday night until Monday morn
ing the passengers were hardly able to
leave the train. Blizzard ragged and no
food was to be had except the limited guam
tity on the dining car The coal in the day
coaches gave out Sunday.
Two brakemen took empty mail pouches
and going forward over the drifts. filled
them from the tender Of the engine. They
returned with supply Of fuel after hard
night against the storm in which both
were badly frost bitten. The snow plow
reached the train on Monday and it was
sent west to Williston, where local accomo-
dations were available and food plenty.
Incoming passengers reported snow drifts
at Stanley thirty-five feet high. In other
places the big rotary plows left veritable
snow tunnels. where the worst of the drifts
had been. Great trouble was experienced
in clearing the tracks. because Of the sand
gathered from the level plains by the wind
and mixed with the snow. This dulled the
knives Of the rotary plows. making con-
stant repairs necessary. Sleet was inter-
mixed with the snow. and when the storm
subsided the drifts were covered with a
thick coat Of ice which made it possible
to walk on them, but greatly retarded the
work of clearing them away.
