The woods was full of tear hunters
in this neighborhood one day last
week. There we're enough men out
to have killed all the bears that the
old prophet called out of the hills to
eat the bad boys, and they made
enough noise to scare the Oldest bear
in the world to death. In the excite.
ment the "varmint" came very near
running over Duncan Martin, and
scared him so badly that his mother
is afraid that he will not grow any
more in the next six months. Mr..
Neely gave it the fatal shot. They
killed it near Jasper Wickham's place.
1t would have appeared much more
neighbor- like if they had killed it be-
fore it ate Mr.. Gatchell's pigs.

State Engineer Fellows writes inter-
estingly of his trip through the western
part of the state. He says:
II reached Dickinson Friday evening
on reconnaissance, trip across the west
ern end of the state starting south from
Williston. Western North Dakota is
going to be, before very long. an i'm
portant factor in moving the center of
population of North Dakota considerably
to the westward. Not only is dry farm
ing being very successfully practiced
throughout this region, but it is found
that there are numberless good oppor-
tunities for irrigation on small scale,
by ymeans Of which tracts of from forty
acres upward can be irrigated economic:
cally and the residents are beginning to
realize the possibilities Several tracts
are already irrigated and the crops
raised upon them demonstrate the mod
esty of the claims of the advocates of
irrigation. For example, the two gar
dens Of Charlie Schafer, at Schafer, one
of them irrigated and the other not,
illustrate this remarkably well. The
unirrigated garden might be called a
success by those who did not know
better but the irrigated plot is certainly
"a success and no. one can mistake the
fact. In number Of instances in other
places single flooding has been the
means of raising the yield of wheat to
forty bushels and upwards, and of oats
to one hundred bushels and upwards
per acre. Although crops are generally
good this year throughout this region,
there are very few of the old timers who
are not converts to the practice of irriga-
ton.
"There is a great deal of settlement
going on in this end of the state and
there will be more next year. Every

in and they are of an excellent class Of
citizens, too. The Northern Pacific rail
way surveying parties have apparently
finished their preliminary surveys be-
tween New Salem and Williston and it
is generally thought that there is a
strong probability of early construction.
If construction does commence in the
spring, the country will be settled up
very rapidly. The difficulty in getting
farm products to market is what has

DREAM TIPS COSTLY.
Two Gases Where Those Who Ge
Them Lost Heavily.

Two Cases Where Those Who Got
Them Lost Heavily.
One Of the most remarkable in
stances In which a large sum Of money
was lost through putting too much
faith in dream occurred to Colonel
Booker, who related the facts himself
to the present writer. In 1899 Colonel
Booker was in Mexico City, and while
there played roulette regularly in the
casino. One night, after winning a
fair amount, he retired to rest and
had curious dream. He thought he
was coming out Of the theater with a
lady on his arm, when a cabman came
up to him and asked him If he wanted
cab. The colonel turned to the lady
and inquired If she would ride, but
she declined, whereupon the cabman
took piece of chalk from his pocket
and marked the colonel's sleeve with
the number IL. Then Colonel Booker
awoke, and was so much impressed by
his dream that he believed he had re-
ceived a bona fide Tip" to put his
money on that number.
That evening he followed the noe
turnal advice and lost, but so great
a hold had the dream taken upon him
that he continued to play the same
number, and, though he lost nineteen
times out Of twenty, he persevered for
several days, at the end of which time
he found his losses amounted to $4,000.
Then, like wise man recovered from
his foolishness, the colonel decided to
quit" and since then he has put very
little faith in dreams as an aid to sue
cessful gambling.
But Colonel Booker's experience with
nocturnal tips was by no means as
disastrous as that of certain rich
young man at Monte Carlo some few
years ago. This young fellow, who.a
we will call Smith, was member Of
a well known and highly respectable
Deyonshire family. He had gone the
.'pace'' and had lost a considerable
amount III horse racing ard gambling,
when one night he had dream which
greatly impressed, itself upon him and
which was the direct means of his los
ing tile remainder Of his fortune.

lice officer came along with a squad
Of gendarmes and halted within hun
dred feet of him. He watched them
idly and soon experienced an uncon-
trollable desire to find out how many
there We're, but just as he began to
count the officer issued peremptory
commands, which were so promptly
obeyed that the dreamer had no chance
Of satisfying his curiosity. Finally,
however, the men stood in single file
facing their officer, and Mr.. Smith was
just able to make out that there were
twenty seven in all when he awoke.
Being superstitious, like all gam
blers, he at once saw in his dream the
finger of fate silently pointing to twen-
ty-seven as the lucky number, and the
following day he was early at the
tables and staked large sum on it..
Curiously enough, twenty-seven won
twice in succession, and then the luck
changed and he began to lose steadily.
Most Of that day he played his favorite
casino closed that night he had lost q
considerable amount Of money.
The next day he continued to play
the same number, with the same re-
suit, and, to cut long story short,
that fatal twenty-seven ran away with
every penny he possessed, and be was
only prevented from shooting himself
by an interested spectator who fol-
lowed him out Of the casino and by
tact and the loan Of small sum in
duced him to face his misfortune like
man. Those to whom Mr.. Smith
afterward related the circumstances Of
the dream declared that he had made a
mistake in not counting the officer as
well as the gendarmes.-London Tit

Cleaning-Up Day

There was meeting of the direc-
tors of the Civic improvement League
last night for the purpose OF discuss
ing plans for a general cloanine-up
day in the city.
Friday, June %. was settled upon
as the date of the cleaning, provid-
ing this date meets with the approval
Of the city officials. The mayor and
the city council will be asked to en-
dorse this movement and do every
thing in their power to make the
work a success.
All citizens are requested to de-
vote a part or all of the day to the
work of giving the city a more clean
ly appearance, both in the business
districts and in the residence sec
tions.
The league suggests that all the
merchants have whatever dirt or
sweepings that may have accumulat-
ed front of their stores .,wept into the
middle of the streest I'D garbage
"'9'H WI pass alphS anu carry lUt
dirt away. This idea the league
thinks should be permanently adopt
ed, and have the business streets
cleaned in this manner once a week.
Greeley and other cities adopted this
plan long ago and it has proven
great success.
In each of the wards of the city
the league will ask cereIin prominent
citizens to take the lead in the work
outlined for the cleaning-up day, and
to superintend the sSrk in each
ward. These gentlemen are as fol
