William Head, a ranchman and
farmer living near Mckenzie, was shot
and instantly killed Wednesday after
noon at one o'clock in the yard at
his ranch by Albert Scribner, a nine
teen year old boy who had been work
ing for him. Head was colored man,
and had been resident Of the county
for a number of years and was. Welt
known, both in the neighborhood in
which he lived and in Bismarck.
Scribner is a smooth-faced boy, not
yet out Of his teens, who came from
Selby, s. D., few weeks ago and
went to work for Head. The shot
that killed Head was fred from a
shot gun and the heavy charge en-
tered the front of the neck at about or
a little below its union with the
breast, killing him instantly. From
the nature of the wound and the fact
that there was little scattering of the
shot, it is probable that Head was
shot while standing at no great dis
tance from the weapon that killed
him. After killing Head, Scribner, the
boy slayer, locked up the house, and
went to Mckenzie where he told the
station agent what ne had done and
requested him to notify the officials
at Bismarck. He then awaited their
coming and gave himself up to the
sheriff without any attempt to escape
either the scene or the consequences
of his crime. He was brought to Bis
marck last evening and now occupies
cell in the county Jail.
Heads death, so Scribner says, was
not intended. The boy claims he did
not intend to kill the man but only to
bluff him into paying the wages that
were due from Head to Scribner, a
sum Of about So This sum, SO
Scribner says, Head had refused to
pay him. The boy had been working
for some time for Head, but on one
hay or do some other work. Then
Head refused to pay him any wages
and, the boy further declares, threat,
ened to blacksnake him off the place
Yesterday morning Scribner went to
Mckenzie to get a load of coal for
Head. When he returned the argu
ment was resumed and Heads death
resulted.
The story told by young Scribner to
Sheriff WEIGH last night is, in effect
that two weeks ago he came up from
Selby, S. D., and went to work for
Head. After working while he
asked for his pay and the request was
refused. A day or two ago he left
Heads employ and went to Mckenzie
On the day after he left Head came to
Mckenzie and asked him to go back
and haul the coal, which was done
yesterday morning. After that was
hauled, Head told the boy he would
settle with him. The coal hauling oc
cupied the forenoon, and the last load
was taken from Mckenzie about noon
When it was unloaded, Head and the
boy went to the house to get dinner
The argument about wages was re
sumed and Head again refused to pay
what was due the boy. Head at this
time went out to the woodpile to get a
basket of wood. The boy followed
and saw the shotgun standing in the
storm shed. He picked this up, re
solved, he said, to make bluff al
Head, but with no intention of kill
ing him. He walked out of the doc,
OF the house and around where he
could see the windmill, to see if Head

TANClER NIGHT FASCINATES
Writer Declares That Nothing Is
Quite So Beautiful as Moor
ish Evening.

Tangier Is most fascinating at
night; then the clear moon of the
south throws veil over the city;
the browns become softened, the shad-
ows deepened; the shrouded women
looking down from the roof tops ap-
pear as pale and lovely ghosts, writes
Martha Lowell, in the Four-Track
News. 1t is at night that the Moor
goes to some cafe, joins the circle OF
his brethren seated around a lighted
brazier, smokes and hears the musi-
clans sing of valOr and of love. And
If the musicians sing well, a wealthy
Moor may throw some rare incense
upon the brazier, and the air is then
filled with a wondrous perfume, such
as is found in no other country in the
world 1t is at night that the wedding
professions march through the wind
ing streets. A band Of men, singing
the weird wedding song, accompanies
the bride She rides in a covered
palanquin mounted on mule. She has
never seen the man whose wife she is
to be. II he isn't pleased he will re-
turn her next day together with the
scornful gift of two chickens.

SEEKING WATER POWER.
Use of Niagara Falls for Generating
Electricity Stirs Other Coun-
tries to Action.

The lesson of the use Of Niagara
falls for generating electricity has
been put to worldwide application,
says the New York World. Through
out the world falling water, according
to a paper read before the British
association by Mr.. Campbell Ewinton,
yields to mans use an energy equal to
1,4S3, 390-horse power, of which Great
Britain figures for only 11,906-horse
power. The British Aluminium COM
pany gets 7,000-horse power from the
falls of Foyers and it expects present
ly to procure 17,000-horse power from
Loeb Leven. The North Wales Elec-
trio Power company is about to tap
Lake Llydaw, on Snowdon, and hopes
to obtain S,200-horse power for every
working day of nine hours. Finally,
the Scotch Water Power syndicate Is
peering round in quest of waters that
1t can imprison at lofty levels and so
generate electric power, From Loeb
Sloy, 757 feet above Loeb Lomond, 1t
Is going to get 6,600-horse power, and
at Ardlui, higher up, it proposes to get
further energy. Even a modest stream
that drops several hundred feet may
be source of power.

UMBRELLA A WIRY THING.
If Not Attached to Owner by a Chain
It May Disappear with an
Entire Stranger.

Umbrellas are proverbially hard
thing to keep, says the Illinois State
Journal. They have such way Of
making up with an absolute stranger
and walking away with him. No mat
ter how much man may be attached
to an umbrella, If 1t is not attached
to him with a chain he may as we'll
bid 1t an affectionate farewell when
ever he puts 1t down in a corner and
turns away to transact some business.
However, this rule, hard, fast and in
flexible as it is, does not apply I'M
less the umbrella is new and shiny and
cost more than 80 cents at retail. To
keep an umbrella on down through the
years and have it on hand to will to
your grandchildren, select one with a
cracked handle and hole In the cover
as large as a boilermaker's hand.
Then you can't lose it, or If you do
after repeated attempts a small boy
will be around at your door with 1t in
the morning claiming a reward for his
honesty.

JAPAN AS OUR CUSTOMER.
England and the United States Are
Favored in Trade of the In
sular Country.

According to an article in the Ger
man Export Review, quoted in the
consular reports, the materials needed
for shipbuilding are bought in Eng
land. Even big ships built for Japan
in Germany years ago were ordered
to Armstrong; in England for their
armament. Recently Krupp and the
French firm Of Schneider are preferred.
The fact that England and the United
States are favored is shown by the
purchase of material for the Yokohama
waterworks. In calling for bids it was
provided that the cocks come from
England and the water meters from
England or the United States, the
names of firms even being specified.
Locomotives for the railroads in Japan
and Korea are bought exclusively in
the United States, presumably because
they are more quickly obtainable
there. The friendship for the United
States Is increasing.

MAKE GEMS FROM QUARTZ.
Rock Crystal, Purest Form of That
Stone, Employed in Manufac-
ture of Diamonds.

Diamond cutting up to recent time
was nearly all done abroad, Holland
being the chief center of the industry
for some centuries, but of late a good
deal of it has come over to America,
where electrical machines are used in
the work to great advantage In all
ways. European work has always
been done by hand, as it still is, and
the lapidaries there are only just walk
ing up to the knowledge that artificial
power can be applied, Besides cut
ting real gems, the machinery en-
ployed here turns out great quanti-
ties of artificial ones. which now rule
the markets of the world. They are
so brilliantly cut and polished that
only experts can distinguish them
from the genuine article. Rock crys-
tai, the purest form Of quartz, is en-
ployed in making artificial diamonds,
and this can only be worked to advan-
tage with the electrical machines, hand
work leaving no profit in the business,
besides turning out inferior results.

Addison County Poultry Show.


The annual exhibit of this society at
Bristol last week was a complete success.
Starting in this enterprising village three
years ago in connection with a bazaar Of
the Munsll Hose Co., it has become the
largest and most successful poultry eX-
hibition in the State, and one of which
Addison County has just right to feel
proud.
The number of entries did not quite
come up to expectations, the quality of
the birds exhibited more than made up
for the deficiency. A handsomer lot of
birds would be hard to find, and it is evil
dent that the breeders have not labored
in vain. That it pays to breed fine poul-
try goes without saying and the interest
in poultry raising has been greatly in
creased in this section during the past
three years. This has been of benefit in
many ways and we hope the interest
may increase in the years to come.

England's Population.

In 1901 the population of England
and Wales a square mile was 55S. In
1900 the population of the United
States was 21.4 a square mile, so Eng
land is comparatively crowded. Yet
in Lincolnshire a widow had to travel
80 miles on her husbands death.
Thus: For doctors certificate, seven
miles; to register the death, five
miles; return home, nine miles; to
the grave and back, 1S miles; total, 80
miles.

TELECRAPHY IN AUSTRALIA.
Railroads and Other Improvements
Are Unusually Extensive in
That Country.

The circumstances of Australia, and
the conditions of its settlement, have
had the effect of making both its rail-
roads and its telegraphs unusually ex-'
tensive in comparison with the num-
bers of its population, and this is
markedly the case with it's mileage of
telegraph lines, writes Hugh II. Lusk,
In the North American Review. At
present the great island is only set.
tied on a strip Of country bordering
on the coast, and even that strip does
not include the more northern shores
either on the east or west, and takes
in no part of the north side at all.
The consequence is that line of tele-
graph which connects the settlements
of Queensland on the northeast of
Australia with those of West Australia
on the west coast-a distance, in a
direct line, of about $500 miles-cov-
ers fully double that distance from
the necessity of keeping in touch with
the settled districts. There is, indeed,
one line Of telegraph which of neces-
sity ignores this rule, and passes for
nearly its whole length of about LOO
miles from the south to the north
western corner of the island, through
an unsettled country. The purpose
of this line is to connect settled
Australia with the rest of the world
by way of Java and India, and it
passes through great districts of the
interior which were first explored for
the purpose of it's construction.

Papers of the World.

A statistician has learned that the
annual aggregation Of the circulation
of the papers of the world is estimated
to be 2,00O,0O0,OO0 copies. To grasp
the idea of this magnitude we may state
that it would cover no fewer than 10, 450
square miles Of surface; that 1t is
printed on 7S1, $50 tons of paper; and,
further, that if the number $4,000 ,00O,-
0O0 represented, instead of copies, sec
onds, it would take more than 1888 years
for them to elapse.
