If the Tenth Man is Drunk

Russia's fate depends largely orr
whether Admiral Rojestvensky has keptl
liquor off his ships. 1t will make a.
mighty difference if his officers have
been dead sober on the long voyage and
if they are unable, at the critical mo-
ment, to reach for the bottle. If the
bottles are there, they are going to
reach for them, depend on that. And, if
ever clear heads were needed, it will be
when the fleets come together.
And they will drink, if the stuff is
there, because it is ingrained in the
| European that he has right to drink
when he fights. y
Only at intervals, , in the history of
! the world, has the idea not prevailed
that the soldier, or sailor, who went
forth to die, was absolved from the Or
dinary rules of sobriety and morality.
The earliest pay of the fighting man
was the loot and bodies of the enemy's
women. o..
It was not so very long ago, as his
tory is measured, that generals officially
appointed certain hours and days when
they should be blind to anything their
victorious troops might do while drunk.
And, among modern European ma
tions, only at intervals has hard drinking
been dissasociated from hard fighting.
A hundred years ago, the ideal crews
of warships were braWny, wild fellows
who stripped themselves naked and
licked up pannikins of rum as they
worked the guns.
At intervals the fighting men, whose
thoughts are on gayety and love and
wine and physical prowess, have been
shocked. And on a February night in
Port Arthur, while the officers of the
Russian fleet held wassail, a lot of dead
sober, lean little Japs darted at the
great, unguarded ships in torpedo craft
and set the pace for war.
The Russians are the hardest drink
ing of all the European peoples. And,
|.if there is any place in modern war,
where drunk kenness is disastrous it is in
the navy. Pointing great guns and ma
neuvering battleships, while. befuddled
with liquor, is as impossible as drunken
men taking accurate astronomical OBJ
servations.E Killing one another, in
war, has become cold -blooded science,
not a hot -blooded orgie.
But, while the Russian officers and
crews may be perfectly sober on board
ship and in action, it is plain that, if
the time, which should have been devoted
to study, has been spent in dissipation,
the little, sober, studious Japs have the
advantage y. ID
And, beyond all that, It IS evident
that $sif the Officers have liquor handy,
they are going to use it at the critical
moment, honestly, to stimulate them
|selVes ;andif perhaps only oneiof tengetsa

Railroad Building

A party of Great Northern engineers
with the chief engineer and the right
of-way man at their head, stayed here
Monday night leaving next morning for
the Mouse river country. They are To-
eating finally the branch from Towner
to Russell. The final survey is being
made on the extension Of this branch
from Westhope to Antler, about four
teen miles, where there will be good
town and it is said grading will begin
very soon. The 500 is locating a town
five miles northeast of RUSSELL one and
half miles from the Mouse where the
Towner branch crosses it. 1t is report
ed that the 500, in order to avoid locat-
ing townsite just east of the Mouse,
has offered to go halves with the coun-
ty in building a wagon bridge across
the river near the railroad bridge. AL
bert Russell was in from Russell and
said that Campbell, the 500 townsite
man, is out there looking the situation
over. 1t is thought the G.. NJ branch
from ToWner will go about five miles
north of Russell and stop. That will
give them control of all that territory
from Russell to We5thope. To build
further would be unnecessary.
The:Great Northern proposes to do all
in its power to keep the 500 people 60
ing. On the branches which cross the
500 it will put in towns as close as pos
sible each side Of this line. Two new
towns are going in on the Granville
branch, one few miles each way from
Lansford, where the 500 crosses.
The 500 is grading at Lansford al
ready and the G. N has. graders at
work on the Towner branch. The town.
site has been purchased at Antler. -

Soma Irish Potato Experiments

It has been found by the agricultural
experiment stations that, with the cul.
tivation and soil the same for crop,
much as regards yields to the acre de-
pends on matters pertaining to the
seed
Thus with one eye to each set, the
outcome of marketable potatoes was
272.25 bushels to the acre; two eyes,
293.1 10 bushels; three eyes, 2lS 90; four
eyes, 205.93; whole tubers, small size,
289. 10; whole tubers, large size, 337. 40,
A conclusion reached from work of
this sort done by thirteen Of these sta
ltions is that potato growers generally
do not plant enough seed to the acre.
1t has in this same way been ascer-
tanned that distance of eight inches in
the drill and about three feet from row
to row, is best. In like manner level
cultivation is approved.
Under the same auspices trial has
been made to make sure of the best
depth at which to do the planting. 1t
was thus ascertained that three inches
proved" the best as far as to-
tai yield was concerned. The yield of
those planted two inches deep was 275
bushels per acre; three inches deep, 298
bushels; four inches deep, 279 bushels;
five inches deep, 273 bushels, and six
inches deep, 238 bushels. The market
able yield was practically the same for
those planted four, five and six inches
deep, Slightly less for those given a
depth Of three inches, and still less for
those at a depth of two inches.

The Siren and The Rube

She smiled upon old Reuben, lust a
cunning little smile, f-~
And he stroked the group of whiskers
on his chin,
Her face was fascinating and he sorter
liked her style,
AS he stroked the group of whisSers
on his chin.
Her figure was corker, twas in cling
ing raiment hid,
And Reuben gazed upon it as he chewed
his weedy quid;
He felt his old age leave him, felt that
g he was but kid,
And he stroked the group of whiskers
+. on his chin.
She smiled again upon him and his heart
was all afame,
AS he stroked the group of whiskers
on his chin. !:
The way her loving glances stabbed his
N bosom was shame,
AS he stroked the group of whiskers
on his chin. i, ~:
The smouldering fires of vigor, which
he thought were nearly dead
Warmed up his sluggish life-blood and
he blushed briclly red; s":
The lamb unto the slaughter then was
innocently led,
AS he strok oked the group of whiskers
on his chin. : ...
His fossil cheek she patted and it al
most set him wild,
AS he stroked the group of whiskers
on his chin.
She pulled his gray old lilacs with the
T,oo1o,,, of n oh;1l
AS he stroked the group of whiskers
on his chin.
She called him "dear old Uncle' in a
voice like cooling dove,
And told him she was hungry for his
patriarchial love.
He thought she was an angel that had
dropped from realms above,
AS he stroked the group of whiskers
on his chin.
She limited at some money and he said
he had pile,
And he stroked the group of whiskcrs
on his chin.
And yet more dazzle dazzled in the
brightness Of her smile,
AS he stroked the group Of whiskers
on his chin.
VI I1lollIIIS Sic I!dU pOOF neuDSu SuO-
ject to her call and beck,
For Cupid's little arrow was imbedded
in his neck,
And every time she'd ask him he would
draw bigger check,
And would stroke the group of whis-
kers on his chin.
O! now he sits rejecting, and his
thoughts are rent with pain,
AS he strokes the group Of whiskers
on his chin. A.
From words of awful import makes no
) effort to refrain,
AS he strokes the group of whiskers
on his chin.
His bank account has dwindled till it
borders on wreck,
His charmer saw it's finish and she
quickly skipped the deck,
And all that she has left him is a sore
ness in the neck,
AS he strokes the group of whiskers
on his chin. ."'

We Are Learning History.

| A Chicago man recently wrote to an
Oregon paper that many Chicagoans
have conceived the idea that the Lewis
and Clark Exposition which is to open
June at Portland, Oregon, is sort Of
Corey Island show managed by the firm
of|"Lewis G. Clark" Of which Senator
Clark of Montana is the junior member.
Though it was not so stated by, the wri-
ter mentioned, it is possible that these
Chicagoans imagine the renowned J.
Hamilton Lewis, formerly congressman
from the state Of Washington, to be the
senior member of the firm. g..
