pected that a return to the domestic
straw with the addition of bands OF
quiet colors will be noted during the
late days at Newport and Lake Forest.
1t may be that the panamas will be
brought out two years hence for the
first of the presidential election pa
rades, but one thing is almost certain,
which is that the linoleum imitation
at $2.9S has done much to discourage
the wearing of the genuine article to
any extent during next season.

A VERY HOT liver.
Where Fish Already looked
May Be Caught.

At the point in question, a stream
of clear, cold water flows through the
park, receiving in its course the scald-
ing hot waters of one of the numerous
boiling springs of that region. This
boiling water, as it reaches the cold
stream, flows, for a considerable dis
lance, along n bank, before the
waters finally mingle and become one in
temperature, says the Washington
Post. Into this spring of boiling
water, insects, bugs, toads, grass
noppers and the like are continually
and thus losing their lives,
and all such insects are, as a matter of
course, swept into the cold water
stream. Now, in the cold water OF
this stream a number of hungry trout
are continually skirmishing along the
edge of the hot water, taking good
not to venture too close, for the
purpose Of swapping up and devouring
the insects brought down by the hot
water, and which happen to float into
the cold water, or near enough the Dor
der for the trout to pick them up; so
that it is possible for a fisherman sit
ting on the bank, to catch a trout, with
hook and line, draw him two feet from
where he took the hook, and boil him
good and done, all in the same stream,
and without ever lifting the fish from
the water. The fisherman would, of
course, have to have a scoop net to
the boiled trout from the
for otherwise the head would
pull off, leaving the body in the water.
But, barring this. it is within the
bounds of truth for one to say that the
Yellowstone is the only place on earth
where it is possible to catch and cook
q fish in the same stream.

Toilet of a Lady Ant.

A naturalist has been making OBJ
s~eryations on the toilets of certain
ants. and has discovered each insect
goes through most elaborate ablu-
lions. They T not only performed
by herself, but by another, who acts
for the time as lady's maid. The assist
ant starts by washing the face of her
companion, and then goes over the
whole body. The attitude of the ant
that is being washed is one of intense
satisfaction. She lies down with all
her limbs stretched loosely out; she
rolss over on her side, even her back,
a perfect picture of ease. The pleas
ure the little insect evinces being thus
combed and sponged is really enjoy
able to the observer.--London Express.

The future of the panama is a fit

by the use of a quart bottle of Florida

A BUSY CHIEF OF POLICE.

Minot Reporter: Chief of Police
Kimball spent Monday tearing down
twenty signs in front of business
houses in this city which did not COM
ply with the e city ordinance. The
new ordinance limits the signs from
being lower than seven feet above the
sidewalks and they must not be more
than two feet in the clear. The. mer-
chants were given ten days and Mon
day was the last day of grace. The
streets now look a great deal better.
Mr.. Kimball also ordered back the
display goods to within two feet of the
business houses. This clears the side
walks nicely and gives the pedestri-
ans a chance.
He is about the busiest man in town
these days. He keeps his eye on stray
cows, horses, hogs, etc., and places in
the pound each day what he spies on
the stree. Saturday night he ran in
six of the bovine family. He signs
when he thinks of the hobo PROPOSE
ton. but it is a sigh Of relief. The
lhobos are scarcer than hens teeth and
it is safe to say that none will stop
here. .a3ts ....

F 3 OF PREJUDICE.

Jamestown Alert: Associated with
some matter there is a good deal in a
name, Notwithstanding Sakespeare's
inquiry and answer. There are
many who argued that at the time Of
statehood, North Dakota should have
taken the name Of Lincoln, OF some
other name, as the prefix north"
would have an effect in keeping away
from the state, conveying the idea of
o cold a region. Many incidents in
h last ten or a dozen years have
arisen within the knowledge of real
estate men and others to show the wis
dom of the prophecy and it is believed
that had the name been changed at the
time of entering the union it would
have been better in many respects in
the matter of settlement. The trade
mark Dakota which was claimed as
the valuable part of the name, has had
its drawbacks as well as advantages.
But time clears away all things and
places facts before the people instead
of Misrepresentation. The time Of
North Dakota's infancy in the union
Of states is rapidly passing away, and
people are beginning to know the real
situation. It is a curious thing but
real estate men claim that southern:
Minnesota was settled before northern
Iowa, and the only reason for it was
that it was called southern instead of
northern. Little things lead to and
shape great events f~ayorably or adj
versely. Prejudices and ignorance are
hard to remove.

GROW SPECIMENS.

SUPERINTENDENT OF STATE Elk
HIBITs Mako REQUEST FOR
SPECIMENS OF GRASSES FOR
ST. LOUIS EXHIBIT.
Editor of the Tribune: Commissioner
OF Agriculture Turner has called my at
tention to the advisability of profit
ing by the luxuriant growth Of all
kinds Of grasses this year in securing
our samples for the st. Louis exhibit,
and I therefore beg a little OF your
valued space in which to call the atten-
ton of farmers and others to this i'm
sportant part of the state exhibit.
Aside from corn probably no exhibit
displayed by the state at the Pan-Am-
erican exposition attracted more atten-
ton than our grasses. Inasmuch as
most of the inquirers about the state
were farmers with dairy and stock in
terests the matter of forage was one
which largely Influenced them in the
selection Of a new home location or
weighed their Judgment as to the de-.
STABILITY of North Dakota as a future
dairy state. It is therefore Mr.. Tur-
ner's desire that a full and complete
display of the native and cultivated
grasses be made at the coming Worlds
Fair. The fact that the fair has been
postponed for a year should not infu-
ence work in this direction as prob
ably there will never be any better
time to get samples than now. But
time is pressing and the work should
be done at g I therefore would
suggest that all persons interested in
advancing the interests of their local
ity look to it that samples Of the best
grass crops in their vicinity be secured
at once, hung up to cure in some dry
place and then shipped to r. J. Tur-
ner, Bismarck. The freight will be
paid at this end OF the line.
In gathering samples of grass the
roots should be included-don't cut
the grass. Shake off the dirt and
hang the samples up by the roots I'M
til well cured. Each sample should be
tagged with the name of the grower
or collector, his postof1ce address and.
the name Of the variety. Each speci-
men will be entered at the exposition
in the name of the contributor and
any medals or awards it receives will
go to him.
I wish I could impress on the people
the Importance of this exhibit, and the
necessity of immediate action. There
is no time for delay as the grass will
soon be cut and the time passed for
securing the best samples. Alfalfa,
~clovers, millets, hungarian, bronze, in
fact every kind of grass, wild or culti-
waited, is wanted. If the state papers
would please run this item it would
be a great help and doubtless be the
means of securing representation from
every county.
In conclusion I call attention to the
cash prizes the state offers for the best
collections of native and cultivated
grasses, namely: S25 for the best in
each class. OF course this does not
apply to single samples, but to the best
and largest collection, one of the chief
aims of the exhibit being to demon
strate that every county in the state
is capable of sustaining successfully a
dairying community if that halycon
period should ever ome This should
interest all real estate dealers. IA

have given the machinery proper atten-

In other instances. good factories are

Many Of the steam power mills have not
