GAR HAD MAD ANCESTORS
Queer Stories About Russian Mon
arch Recall Doings of suppos-
eddy Insane Forefathers.


While little credence need be attached
to the curious stories about the car
that have been flying about recently, it
is an unquestionable fact that insanity
runs in his house. Three of his prede-
cessors, Peter ILL.,, Emperor Paul and
Ivan the Terrible, were all more or less
mad, and some of their vagaries kept
their immediate attendants in perpetual
hot water. Peter I'LL, to accustom him
self to war, insisted upon having the fir
ing Of cannon constantly in his ear. At
one time he gave an order to have hun
dred of the heaviest guns in the world
simultaneously discharged in Moscow
solely that he might not in time of war
be terrified by an unaccustomed noise.
1t was Ivan the Terrible who, when suf-
fering from some illness, commander
the city Of Moscow to provide him
with a cask Of fleas as cure for his
malady. ...........

BEARD CAUSE oF PROMOTION
University Graduate Held Down by
Youthful Appearance - Hirsute
Appendage Has Telling Effect.

A recent graduate Of one Of the great
universities secured place with q
well-known firm at a modest salary,
says the New York Sun. He, fulfilled all
his duties satisfactorily, but there
seemed to be. something lacking. BUSH
ness callers did not seem to take him
seriously, and one would occasionally
inquire: n !, +.
"Say, bub, where's the boss?"
The graduate finally decided to raise
a beard. At the end of a week his en-
ployer came to him and said:
"It's a rather delicate subject, but
I'm glad that you have realized that
It is your youthful appearance shat
has been keeping you back. You will
take charge Of the shipping departmen
Tomorrow And some people say
that appearances count for nothing"
remarked the graduate. .s'It took me
four years to get college education,
and in four weeks 4ll have q beard.
I made ten dollars s week on the
strength Of the education, and got pro-
NOTED the first week on the strength Of
the beard"

COST OF LOUIS BUTTONS.
"Grand Monarque" Said to Have
squandered SIS, 900, 900 to.sat-
isfy Peculiar Mania.

%
Twenty thousand dollars for a drop
shaped pearl scarf pin, $4,000 for
pearl stud, $4,940 for a coat fastener
formed of white bouton pearl with
gold bar, $3.50 for seven buttons en-
suite and SITS for a pair of brilliant
sleeve links-these are few Of the
prices realized at the recent sale in
London of noble marquis jewelry.
But, after all, everything is COMPARE
tive, and the marquis gems, rare and
costly though they are, would have
been quite eclipsed by Louis XIV.'s per-
sonal jewelry. The grand monarque"
had many crazes, but for buttons he
had positive mania. In single year
1886, he squandered 100000 on them,
and some Of his purchases are well
worth glancing at. On August 1, 1856,
he bought two diamond buttons for g..
$3.50 francs, and rs diamond buttons
for 5S6,703 francs. The buttons for q
the 1854 "boutonnieres" used 162 con-
tanned five diamonds each, while the
remainder were single diamonds. In
all, the great monarque" is said to
have spent 100000 on buttons alone.

SWEDEN.

Stockholm, Aug. 12.--An arbitration
convention between Sweden and Nor
way and Great Britain was signed
today.
M George Balm and his sister, who
are Americans, intended to take a
trip on their automobile through
Sweden. But the way in which they
were treated put such powerful
damper on their ent husiasm that they
gave up the trip after q few hours
ride and returned to the continent. !.
The department Of war permitted
$50 delegates to the Salvation Army
convention in Stockholm to sleep in
military barracks.

from Lycksele, has gone to Stock

which she performs her mission

Irrigation Bill
Very Popular

III
IA recent Bismarck dispatch
makes the following sensible
su questions anent the question
of irrigation in this state.
The Republicans of this State
are rejoiced at the Presidents
reference to irrigation in his
speech Of acceptance. They
have always regarded the Hans
brough irrigation bill as a giant
stride toward the establishment
of genuine homemakers on the
great arid and semi-arid domain
of the West, an also as in a mea-
sure monument to their own
state from the fact that it was
drafted and it's enactment secur-
ed by their senior Senator, whose
name it bears. North Dakota
also claims President Roosevelt
as one. of its citizens, basing that
claim on his residence on his
North Dakota ranch; and. for
that reason his reference, which
shows his appreciation of the
great work begun in his admin
istration, is especially. appre-
ciated.
Ever since the Democratic Ma
tional Convention made an ambi-
guous reference to irrigation,
inspired, doubtless, by Senator
Newlands, which is calculated
to mislead those who are not IA
miliar with the facts, North Da-
kota Republicans have been up
in arms, and in their State con-
venton, they adopted a platform
which contained the following:
1--WE commend the Democracy
for their generous expressions of
approval of the patriotic work of
Lincoln, Grant, Mckinley and
other great Republican leaders
who are dead, but we. seriously
object to the policy inaugurated
at st. Louis wherebyssthe..D Demo-
cratic National .,....Convention
sought to deprive ..the ..sadminis-
tration of President Roosevelt. of
any credit. for its.swork in the
passage of the Hansbrough..Ir
cation law. This Legislation. was
enacted in 1892, under-a..Repub-
lican President, and byssa Repub-
lican Senate and House of..-Re-
personalities, the~~bill Having
been drawn, introduced and
managed by Mr.. Hansbrough I'm
the Senate, and when. it Preached
the House of Representatives
Mr.. Mondell (Republican,) of
Wyoming, took charge'of lit and
secured it's passage.by that body.
It was then signed by Presi-
dent Roosevelt and became a
law.
There is no Statute law appli-
cable to such a theft as was
perpetrated by the Democracy
at St. Louis, but the moral obi
cation to protect the Republican
national administration from
the political craftsman rests
upon every Republican lin the
land, and particularly upon this
convention

may go over to a neighbor's house
and howl and bark because he is so
cold. Now, all you have to do to
make him a comfortable house is to
get a goods-box and close it up, ex-
cepting a hole just large enough for
the dog to get in, then place lot
of litter (straw, old sacks, etc.), in
the box and place the box under the
south side of building with the door
fronting the south and Jack will
want no better house. The bedding
should be taken out and burnt every
two or three months in order to de-
stroy feas.
