seen the dreams git in her eyes
In the days when the fairies would whis-

I've told her the stories O childhood. an
told her that when We should part
The Gay that seen she was missin' would
break her poor daddy's old heart.
An jist as told her it's breakin'-I watch
the old shadders pass by,
But the green O. the field an the med

An sometimes at night l kin see her
a-drivin the cows to the bars,
But the moonlight is dim in. the pas

His Wisest Pupil.

AS a teacher, Carlyle was a strict
and gloomy disciplinarian, whose
large, glowing eyes constantly shot
forth wrath. His mere scowl, writes
a Scottish lawyer in some reminiscenc
es of the days when he was one OF
Carlyle's pupils in Kirkcaldy, would
hush the whole school, while he often
made us writhe under his sarcasm.
One morning just as we were enter
ing the schoolroom, donkey ap'
peared on the playground, and one OF
the scholars, named Bill Hood, rushed
to mount the animal, and attempted
to ride it into the classroom. The
donkey was induced to carry it's rider
over the threshold amid shout OF
laughter and cheers from the boys
Just as Bill was squirting the donkey
into the masters desk Carlyle ap
peared.
We expected a tremendous explo
sion of wrath, but instead the Chelsea
sage burst into roar OF laughter
Finally, the master spoke.
That" he said, "is the wisest ant
best scholar Kirkcaldy has yet sen
me; he is fit to be your teacher" HI
tapped the donkey's head, as he wa
wont to do ours, and continued
There's something here, far NOR

Cabin Door Notices

AS the prospector leaves his
cabin after his summers work and
goes away for the winter, he gen.
orally puts some form of notice on
the door.
In the Bohemia (Ore.) district
a miner who has just come out
says that he saw and copied the
following:
We'er Gone! No Use To Break
In As We Cleaned Up Everything
To Eat Before We Left"
At another place the notice
read:
There's Nothing Left But
Beans"
The next read:
"He who Enters Here Leaves
Hope Behind"
Another:

Want But Leave The Grind

be back in the spring, but it is
probable that the Kansas rancher

after the money has been spent

Commission Appointed
to Arrange Terms
of Surrender.
new YEARS VICTORY FOR JAPs
In Recognition Of Heroic Defence Rus
sian Garrison to be Shown Full
Honors Of War.

Port Arthur has surrendered.
Exhausted by months of almost
constant fighting, decimated by
disease and casualties, and hope.
lessly sealed in a rocky fortress,
the gallant garrison has yielded to
it's persistent besiegers, and the
end is now written of the most
dramatic war incident of modern
times.
AT 6 O'Clock Sunday night Gen
eral Nogi, commanding the jap
anese army of invasion, received
from the Russian general, Stoes-
sci, a note saying that he found
further resistance useless, and
asking for a meeting to arrange
the terms of capitulation. The
note was simple and direct, and
the Japanese general Immediately
named the commissioners to con-
fer with the representatives of the
Russian commander. They met
at noon Monday to arrange the
conditions of the surrender. The
nature of the terms agreed upon
is not known yet, but dispatches
from Toxic indicate that they will
be of a most magnanimous char
acter.
Late dispatches from japan
have shown that the gallant de-
Tense of Stoessel and his men has
nowhere been given finer appre-
citation than in the line of his foes,
and it is more than likely that
Japan will embrace this oppor-
tunity to show her magnanimity
and admiration of the gallantry of
Port Arthur's defenders, by allow
ing them all the honors which a
victorious army may bestow upon
the vanquished.

Necessary Requirements
In Entering and Fill
ing Upon Land.
Be COMPLIED WITH
Much Delay and Possible Loss May be
Avoided by An UNDERSTANDING Of
Land ofaoe Rulings.

Every citizen of the United
States, or any person of foreign
birth, who has declared his inten-
ton to become a citizen of the
United States, over the age of q
years, is entitled to enter 100
acres of the public domain as a
homestead, provided he is not
already the owner of more than
100 acres of land in any state or
territory. Also a man under the
age of 81, who is the head of a
family, any widow, or any unmar.
ried woman owe the age of q
years, is entitled to the homestead
right.
RESIDENCE AND CULTIVATION.
Residence and CIVILIZATIONS: The
homestead act requires continual
residence and cultivation for a
period of five years. In the case
of drouth, or other unavoidable
cause, the settlers time will be, on
a proper affidavit, extended. If
the homesteader is married, and is
compelled to leave his claim for
the purpose of making a living,
then the family must continue to
reside upon and cultivate the land.
In the case of unmarried men
and women the residence must be
continuous, except it be impossi-
BILE to make a living on the claim,
III which case the homestead must
be the actual home of the claim
ant, and he will be compelled to
show to the satisfaction of the
land Office that the homestead was
his actual home, to all intents and
purposes, and that he has resided
upon, cultivated and improved
the claim to the best of his ability.
The opinion prevails that to be
on the homestead once every six
months is sufficient in the eyes of
the law.
No greater error can be made
by any homesteader than to as
sumo this to be the fact, for he
will find, when he comes to offer
final proof, that his proof will be
rejected. The residence and cul-
tivation of a single man or woman
must be as complete, to all intents
and purposes, as that of a married
man, or it will not be allowed to
stand. A single man cannot enter
and prove up on a homestead and at
the same time reside in, and con-
duct a business in some other To-
caiity, unless he and his witnesses
commit perjury.
WHAT is REQUIRED IN THE WAY OF
IMPROVEMENTS.
What is required in the way Of
improvements: There is no speci-
fed amount of improvement or
cultivation required. The home
steader must show that he has
done the best lie could in the way
of erecting buildings, fences,
bitches, etc. The amount of cul-
tivated land may not be to exceed
ten acres, but if the settler shows
that to be the best he could do.
then his proof will be accepted.
A homestead entry can be made

must be desert in character. de-
void of timber and mineral. A
few scattering cottonwood, pine,
willows, or quaking asp trees, are
not considered timber in the
construction of this act. A map
or plan of the proposed ditch, with
which the land is to be irrigated,
must also be furnished. Running
streams, unless the overflow is suf.
ticient to produce a crop, will not
interfere with the entry of the land
as desert.
FEES AND ANNUAL PROOF.
Fees, and annual proof: Twenty
five cents per acre must be paid
at the time of entry. The entry
man must also make yearly proof,
establishing by his own affidavit
and that of two witnesses. that he
has expended in the construction
of a ditch, the construction of lat
erals on the land, the purchase of
a water right, clearing the land
of brush, stones, or in the ir-
rigation and cultivation of the
land, the sum of 81 per acre for
the entire tract. Buildings,
fences, corrals, etc, are not to be
included in this estimate. This
yearly proof must be furnished
each year for three years, and
must be made within the year,
counting from the date of entry.

from the date Of entry final proof

His earnest purpose to strive at
all times for the good of the whole
state, to build up it's industries
and open up it's limitless resources
was firmly and unqualifiedly ex-
pressed in his brilliant inaugural
address and to this end he urged
the hearty cooperation of the adj
ministrative officers and of the
people.
The Inauguration ceremonies
began at IL o'clock, but it was long
before this hour that prominent
citizens from all parts of the state
began to gather at the state house.
The imposing state building was
handsomely and appropriately
decorated for the occasion with
American flags draped across the
front of the building, in the lobby
and corridors, over tile doors of
the offices and around the senate
chamber in which the ceremonies
were held.
