Orders Issued y.
For Enc cafllpl1le

Orders will be issued in a few
days for the annual encampment
Of the North Dakota National
Guard at the State military park
south of the city, commencing
July 6. and ending July 13. 1T
will be seen that the encamp-
lment will be held during the
season of the Ghautauqua assem-
bly,, and will add much to the
interest Of the later. There are
twelve companies in the state
with about Loco enlisted men
besides the officers. The Sregi-
n1ent will be under the command
LOT Col. Peake, Of Valley City.
Governor Sarles and staff will
be present, and it is the purpose
Of the officers to make this the
best ancampfnent ever. held in
the state.
The credit for securing the en-
cannpment during the Chautau-
qua season is entirely due to Col.
Creel, inspecto general Of the
state. He has insisted that the
two should be held at the same
time, and his advice has been
followed BY the state officers.

STRANGE WORLD, BELIEVERS.

When the cold day came along with its
haleluia song.
You were signing for the pastures where
the daisies used to throng:
But when you knew tsose pastures you
were hunting for the glooms.
Though the bees were making honey In =
holiday Of blooms!
Strange world. good people!
Never satisfied at all,
With the roses of the springtime
Or the gold leaves Of the fall
When you own the whole plantation there
Is trouble at the door:
II you cornered all creation you'd be en-
vying the poor!
You'd be growing at the landscape. II You
ever took your stand
And saw the shining beauty Of the ancient
promised land!
Strange world, believers!
Never satisfied at all,
When you're In the summer gardens
Or the golden groves Of fall!
Don't you think II, once In heaven, will
the good folk you should meet,
You'd expect them all to lead you to the
very highest seat,
And then, in perfect safety. find lots Of

Or the master OF the hall.

NEARsToNE FOR BUILDING.
Beton, OF Imitation Granite and Sand
stone, Said to Be Durable-For-
mula for Former.

United States Consul Kehl, in Stettin,
Germany, tells about the first imitation
sandstone or beton building in north
ern Germany, says the New York
World. 1t is to be used as government
insurance building. The staircase rail-
ing of imitation red granite has pol
ish equal to that on the real article:
only by close inspection can one detect
that it is in imitation. Even the halls
and stairs will all be of beton. The
framework is of cheap brick faced with
pieces of imitation sandstone, cement
being used in setting the pieces. All the
blocks, window frames, stills, columns,
roof, balcony and portal ornaments are
so exactly cast that they fit with little
chiseling. To obtain the effect of gran
lite ground black marble is used; for red
granite red marble is used. The outer
shell of stonework is from lis to 1.97
inches thick and is of flne-ground quail
ity. while the filling is coarse-ground.
Wood forms are used for block work;
for fancy pieces plaster of paris molds
are used. The stones are sold by meas
urement and ornaments by the piece,
and the claim is made that the imitation
is so per cent cheaper and just as dura-
BILE as the real article. The best FORM
ula for mixing beton is said to be one
part cement, three parts sand, five parts
ground stone.

Pneumatic rubber les forms are now

Gates of these first aids to the unshapely

material property is involved in their
use than in the employment of padding
to correct dropping shoulders or in using
braces to remedy the effect Of stopped

The forms may be so inflated as to

STEAM AND CITY TRAFFIC.
Electric Traction Likely to Displace
Steam on Roads Entering
Large Cities.

The prediction that the steam-locomo-
tive must yield to electric traction is
laughed at by most railroad men. but
the plans of the great roads entering
New York show that for city and suburb
an trafic this substitution is likely soon
to take place. Says an editorial writer
in the Electrical Review. discussing
the proposed electric equipment of the
New York Central in the zone con-
tiguous to che city:
The effect of the success OF this
equipment from an operating standpoint
will be far-reaching. 1t will show that
there is no longer any necessity for rum
ming steam-locomotives within city
limits. 1t will probably mean it will not
be long before all large municipalities
will take steps toward excluding steam
locomotives from their limits. Where
entrance is made through tunnel we
may expect an early change to electric
operation; and, conversely. electric
operation will enable roads to enter
cities which before were unattainable.
In fact, the Pennsylvania railroad has
not waited for other roads to demon
strate the feasibility Of electric opera
ton, but is at the present time con-
structing an elaborate terminal for its
system in New York city, entrance to be
made by means of tunnels driven under
the Hudson river, all trains being driven
electrically. The next question con-
fronting the trunk-line engineer after
adopting electric operation for the
terminals will be. how far is it advis.
able to extend the electrical zone? And
having a certain section of the road
operated electrically, will it be advisable
to continue the use of two systems
Conservative electrical engineers say
that harm Is done by advocating the
electriflcation of trunk lines at this
time. as the steam-roads are not ye,
ready for it. But what of the future.
Electric traction has grown SO rapidly
since 1t was first shown to be successful
that it would be rash to make predic
tons. At the present time. however
there does not seem to be any inclination
to stop its progress

THE LINES OF MAGNETIC FORCE.
same relation to iron as sawdust does
to wood.
A bar magnet is necessary for what
you are to show. says the Chicago Inter
Ocean. Lay it on table or any nat
surface and then cover it over with q
piece of stiff cardboard. Now sprinkle
the iron filings over theasurface OF the
cardboard, and then very curious thing
will happen.
The filings arrange themselves as
shown in the accompanying illustra-
ton. each particle forming part OF the
various curves which radiate from the
two magnetic centers. which indicate
where the ends of the bar magnet are.
These lines have scientific appella-
ton, for you have made very learned
demonstration with the iron filings anc
the magnet-you have shown mozl
clearly what is generally called in sci
ence 1.-The lines of magnetic force"
