statehood in 1889, South Dakota had fully one
third more population than the north state.
At the, present time the population of the two
states is practically the same, shown by
the census of this year.
Ever since the admission. North Dakota has
been working to secure population Its
state land department is supplied with suf-
fcient fund for advertising purposes to send
out illustrated circulars. and large amount
lands are advertised, but the section in which
they located is shown to the best advantage.
At the same time. the Great Northern has
kept in existence an tmmigra tion bureau Of its
own, and has done great deal toward securing
settlers for that state -s..: ,.
Every effort to secure anything in the way
of an. appropriation from the legislature of
establishing of an immigration bureau has met
with cold turn down. Nothing has been done
outside of private effort of different land COM
panies. ....- --- '
The result of the policies followed by the two
states is shown in the figures which give North
Dakota gain of 10000 in population since
1890, and South Dakota gain of but $4,000.
The question Of action is being generally dis
cussed in this state, and it is hoped that if
the next legislature will do nothing more. it
will supply additional clerk in the state
land department and provide him with suf=
ficient fund for printing SO that he may be
able to answer the many inquiries that come to
that department.. .' .-.#& '....

power in this concern and began opera
lions for the organizing of larger COM
pany, which finally acquired the plant
and good will of the Natick Gas Com
pany. His electric lighting plant was con-
solidated with the gas company under
the corporate name of the Natick Gas
and Electric Company, and 1t was not
long before he had the controlling inter-
est in that concern. About the same time
he became interested in other electric
lighting concerns, and it was not long
before he actually controlled electric'
light plants In other towns. Among them
were the Newton and WatertOwn Gas and
Electric Company and the birmingham
Electric Company"
One of his closest friends said to the
Traveller reporter that he was bound to
respect Appleyard for his push and en-
terprise.
Il never saw him stuck for anything in
my life," he said. IF he wanted anything
he knew just how to get 1T, and If he
wanted $1,000, 900 he would have got it
in some manner
Il never knew a man who had things
SO completely at the end Of his fingers.
When he needed money in any of his
enterprises 1t seemed as II all he had to
do was to put his hand up in the air, pull
1t down again and there find the desired
amount. His good luck must have come
from the Skies"

Stock in Trade Small.


by birth, first stepped foot on American
soil a few years ago, his stock in trade
consisted wholly Of thorough knowledge
of mechanics, some familiarity with cleo
tricity and a liberal share of the kind of
grit that one usually finds associated with
the old-fashioned Yankee. He first offered
Mills, which was conducted by the man
who founded the town and gave it his
name. He was employed in a mental ca
pacity there for some time. The small sal
airy 1t offered looked larger than the pros
poets of his finding employment at his
trade, and he stuck to his work until he
proved to his employers that he was capa-
BILE of doing something in another direc-
ton.
HE was rapidly advanced from one post
to another. until he was finally made super
intendent of the bOttling rOom-not a very
lofty position, but 1t gave him an oppor-
tunity to show what he was made of. His
spare minutes were spent In improving the
facilities for handling the work which was
mind. he was constantly adding to the IA
cilities of the plant with ideas Of his own.
1T was not long before he had shown
that he was too valuable man for a
creamery and Mr.. Mills, who also operated
steel edge plant. transferred him to the
SUPPLEMENTARY of that large enterprise.
There as In the creamery. he was devoting
his spare minutes toward developing me-
chanical and electrical ideas. and at last
! blossomed out as the inventor of a fender
| for electric cars. Some one had entered
the field before him, and his invention did
not bring much encouragement
Then. still continuing to look after his
employers interests. he invented heater
| for electric cars. This was his beginning,
for 1t was taken up quickly, and he realized
something in the way of profits.
Soon after this the whole Mills struc-
ture, involving many interests of the
town, collapsed and Appleyard came to
South Natick, where he organized the
plant and sequipping it with modern
electrical appliances. This was In 1894.
He eventually acquired the controlling

REMARKABLE RUG
Owned by Indian Was Made From
Seventy-Seven Human Scal,s.

From the Dallas News.
A rug which took seventy-seven lives In
the making is owned by an Iowa Indian liv-
ing in Stroud, Okla. 1t is 100 years old and
consists of seventy-seven scalps torn from
the heads of as many human beings. Tho
rug. which is barely five feet square is of
many hues, for the scalps are red gray.
black, white, brown and auburn. They he
longed to peaceful people, too, and are said
to have been taken by special command of
the Great Spirit from the finest specimens
OF men, women and children belonging to
the white, red and negro races AS soon as
the scalps were secured they were sewn to-
gether, and the rug was from that regarded
as the remedy for all trouble. When an In
dian was taken sick he was laid on this rug
and If he did not recover his spirit was as
sured of pleasant journey to the happy
hunting ground. This remarkable creation
can be seen but once year. At the annual
wild onion feast, which comes April !,
the Iowa Indians make the rug play an inn
portant part. The onion is freely used, the
Indians saturating themselves from head to
foot with the Juice. This was their success
full way of driving away the evil spirits.
A prayer rug belonging to the Shah of
Persia is another valuable mat. Though
barely two feet square. it's design Is most
elaborate. 1t is worked throughout in
precious stones, and the effect is da zzlip1
The ground ts formed of rose diamonds and
in the center Is large bird, whose neck in
made of amethysts and its body of rubies.
The vines which form a network, through
which the bird may be seen as through a
cage, are made of emeralds. while the bands
which connect the stones are Of seed pearl
The floral emblem of Persia is worked out
In blue yellow and pink stones. this design
being known the Nina Khani design It
is difficult to determine even the approxf-
mate value of this small rug, but Il has
been estimated that If 1t were sold the pro-
ceeds, placed at per cent interest. would
bring in an income of at least s2Joco0 per

CONFERENCE PROPOSED
SECRETARY HAYS SUGGESTION
TO COUNT cAssINI.
General Solicitude Of the Powers in the
: Complaint of China's Viola
ton Of Neutrality.

The most interesting feature of the cor
-espondence between the State Department,
the Russian embassy and the Chinese lega-
ton relative to the Russian allegation that
Chinese neutrality has been violated is a
proposition from Secretary Hay that the
Russian complaint be considered by con-
ference of the powers, a suggestion which
thus far has called worth no response Sec
rotary Hays reply to the Russian COM
plant after an assurance to Count Cassini
that he had instructed our minister to
China to express to the foreign office in
Peking the earnest hope of the President
that China would scrupulously observe her
neutral obligations, ANY departure from
which would seriously embarrass not only
China, but also the powers interested in
limiting the area of hostilities." proceeds:
Il willingly took advantage of this occa-
sion, as / have Of similar occasions in the
past, to make proof Of the frank and loyal
friendship which has always existed be-
tween our two nations. But l feel that 2
ought. with the same frankness, to call
your excellency's attention to the fact that
the Chinese government declare with great
earnestness that they have constantly OBJ
served that strict neutrality In the present
war which is imposed upon them not only
by their solemn engagements. but also by
the very necessity Of their Independent sx-
istence; and that the government OF Japan
insist that they have kept and intend to
keep inviolate the pledges they made at the
beginning of the war to respect the neutral
ity of China within the limits then agreed
upon"
Count Cassini's Response.
In his reply to Secretary Hay. Count
Cassini makes light Of the denial of the
Russian charges. which he says was. of
course, only to be expected. and he re-
fuses to have the responsibility placed on
Russia for maintenance of a one-sided
neutrality. He says:
This denial of China is met by the
imperial government with the presenta-
ton of full series of facts, for the most
part matters of public knowledge, which
the foreign representatives at Picking
those. at least, who wish to reach con-
scientious appreciation Of the true condi-
ton of things-cannot fail to know and
to report to their respective govern
ments
1.-The present aspect of the situation is
as follows: On the one hand, q series of
acts, unquestionably contrary to the neu-
trality of China and melted by Japan;
on the other denials unsupported by any
evidence. ! beg to take up, among the
facts cited In the Russian memorandum
the Ryeshitelni incident at Chefoo This
incident showed to the world what heed
Japan paid to the neutrality Of China and
