skiPPERs ON FISHING VESSELS
WILL De PROHIBITED FROM
CARRYING KNIVES.

LONDON. May 26.-There have been
numerous wrecks Of fishing vessels for
some time past owing to inexplicable
errors Of the compass. This led the
underwriters Of such craft sailing from
Grimsby to make an investigation with
the result that they discovered defiec-
tons of the compass were due to a
special type of large clasp knife that
is popular with local fishermen.
The method Of tempering the knife
confers upon it magnetic properties
that are so powerful that when 1t Is

needle two to three points. and as the
man moves the needle gyrates In the
oldest manner. The knives are now
recognized as dangerous and the skip
pers are forbidding anybody to enter

Youth Accidentally Shot,

ILWACO. Wash, May 26.-While
Artie Hawkins and Marvin Sample, two
lads. were hunting Tuesday afternoon,
Marvin Sample, aged IA years, was ac-
cidentally shot, the contents Of both
barrels passing through his two lower
right ribs
The wound was dressed by DR.. Ken
nedy and Immediately afterwards he
was taken to the Astoria hospital in a
launch. There are good hopes of his
recovery The accident is unexplainable
as the boy claims he was alone on the
Chinook bridge and shot himself,
whereas the physician claims that the
wound is downward and that the shot
scattered.

HILL BACK OF ROAD.

Believed That He Will Control Line
From Butte to Boise.
1t is the general opinion that Jim
Hill is back of the road which is
to be built from Butte to San Fran
cisco via. Boise and Winnemucca. This
road was organized in Boise yesterday,
as reported last evening, and it is
believed that construction work will
begin at once. The nature Of the road
and its connection tends to confirm
the belief that the Northern Pacific
and Great Northern are interested in
its construction. for it would give Hill
competing line with Harriman's
SOUTHERN Pacific, which controls the
business of San Francisco.

A Sad Bereavement.

Mr. an Mrs. e. E. Lunquist's in
FAINT son, Charles Sheldon, age
months and II days, died at seven
o'clock on Wenesday evening. The
little fellow had been sick only a day.
Physicians were called in and after
consultation diagnosed the case as
=telescoping Of the small intestine.
An operation being the only means
by which the child's life might be
saved, it was undertaken, but owing
to the shock resulting therefrom and
the fact that modification had al
ready begun, the life of the little one
ebbed away. The little boy was the
pride and Joy of the household and
bis removal therefrom leaves an ach-
ing void in the hearts of all members
OF the family. The funeral will be
held at 2:30 p. m. OH Friday after
noon from the Presbyterian church.

he'd River Valley. For many years
past 1t has been known that some of
these products are in the soil, but so
Tar 1t has been impossible to locate
any OF them in paying quantities.
In l9Ol a farmer near Pelican Ra-
p1ds was drilling we'll and got a
small amount of gas, and there was
quite a stir in the locality and leases
ana companies were formed to pros
pect but nothing ever came of it.
In 1902 a heavy vein of coal was
found by well diggers south of
Barnesville. A company was formed
In Duluth and much prospecting was
done with plenty of results in the
way OF coal, but it was some 80 feet
down and it seems that the prospect,-
ors found it was impossible to get rid
OF the water that would accumulate
IN the prospective mines and we be-
lleve the work has been abandoned.
In 1903 a company of Fergus Falls
business men were formed to explore
the region east of Breckenridge
where several wells had brought free
hoWs OF gas. Several other places
have produced gas, some in quite
large quantities, when new wells
have been dug or old ones made deep
er. ~
Some years ago Mr.. J. H. Huggard,
then living on what is now the Taral-
seth farm, west of town, struck a
strong flow of gas through digging a
we'll. 1t blazed up from lantern
which happened to be held near and
the fame reached up for II, or Is
feet. They piped the gas into the
house and used it in the cook stove
tor quite while. An expert from
the eastern gas regions viewed the
locality after a while, but no one
seems to know what his conclusions
were, farther than that he advised
the family that they were in danger
OF gas explosion on account of the
piping and they filed the we'll up. ~
The flow that is exciting the vicin-
lty OF Angus was found by Mr..
Lemen last summer, by well digging,
the same as all similar discoveries in
the Red River Valley It is said to
be near the farm of Mr.. G.. C. Win
chester.
fs4s'sEElhsae has 8beens e.aaugh Of these
finds to indicate that there may be
considerable quantities of OIL gas
and coal distributed over this region,
and it is not impossible that some
prospector may hit the right spot to
get profitable results.

FIND BODY IN RIVER
Remains Of Rev. Edmans Found
Near Breckenridge By
Expert Diver.

Breckenridge, Minn., Jan. 3.-The
body of Rev. Edmans of Wahpeton,
n. D., was found in the Red River.
about one mile north of this place.
yesterday. An experienced diver ar
rived here yesterday morning to locate
the body, and he succeeded in doing
so about 4 O'Clock yesterday after
noon. AS will be remembered, Rev.
Edmans, who had been sick and out
of his mind for several weeks, left
his home without being noticed,
and it appears went to the Red river,
after borrowing an axe from a neigh
Dor, and cut a hole in the ice, and
his coat and hat were shortly after
wards found beside the hole. ~.
This was the day before Christmas,
and while some thought he had left
for parts unknown, most people who
knew his weakened condition, ment-
ally, believed he had committed sui
eide while not in his right mind.
Mr.. Edmans was a very able preach
er, and was about go years old.
He had been for several years past
or OF the Wahpeton Congregational
and was at the time of his
death.

TR|-STATE MEETING
The Railroads Have Been Excep.
tional|y Considerate to Far.
60 for the Gathering.

President Worst and Secretary
johnson of the Tri-State Grain
Growers convention called attention
today to one important feature to be
noticed with this great annual ga
thering in Fargo. 1t is the only state
assemblage recognized by the several
| railroad companies for one-rate fare
for the round trip and without the
annoyance of the certificate plan.
Children, under II years of age, may
also travel at half the single fare for
the round trip.
The one fare rate covers a terri
tory of over 5000 miles. On the N.
P. from Little Falls and Brainerd to
the Montana line, and all branches.
On the G. N. the territory covers
points from Cass Lake, Sank Center,
Benson and Browns Valley to Mon
tana line.
On the 500 from all points north
andawest and Glencoe: including VIM
nipeg line to international boundary.
On the Milwaukee, all points north
and west of Montevideo, Minn., and
Sioux Falls and Mitchell, S. D.
incidentally Secretary Johnson
stated that since the last meeting
there has been additional hotel ac-
commodation provided that will
be available to hundreds of visitors
expectd at the melting to be held in
this city, Jan. l6 to 10.
1t was also stated today by Presi-
dent Worst that the finishing touches
were being put upon the programme
and it was expected that the mails,
tomorrow, would bring in decisive
letters which would ensure it's COM
pletion and publication this week.
The association officials declare that
the programme will be the most
attractive one ever presented to the
farmers ofthe three states and the sub
jects to be discussed will make every
session of the great convention inter-
esting.

Letter from Baudette.

Frank E. Johnson, formerly of this
city, writes the Sheaf from his claim
at Baudette as follows:
II wish the Sheaf a happy New
Year and good luck with the new
type setting machine. I am we'll and
happy out here on my homestead in
the woods, and more happy since
Baudette has been moved half a mile
closer to my claim In this new
townsite I have bought a busi-
ness lot, and am hauling logs as fast
as possible to H. Gunderson's saw
mill in order to get lumber for a store
building. I have four men cutting
wood and logs for me, and as I have
to do the cooking also I have very
busy time.'

A MODEL LAND OFFICE.
That is What the Pioneer Land
and Loan Cos New Quar-
tiers Make.

The Pioneer Land and Loan Com.
pany recently moved into their new
commodious and elegantly furnished
office rooms in the Bank of Warren
building. There is probably not a
more conveniently arranged real es-
tate office in the west, as it has been
designed especially for the business
to be conducted therein. The first
room is the office room proper where
the desks of Mr.. Lamberson and his
bookkeepers and stenographers are
located. Here deals are made, con-
tracts and deeds drawn and a volum-
inous correspondence carried on. In
the rear are two rooms, one of which
is devoted to an exhibit of the pro-
ducts of the soil of the Red River
valley. A visit to this room will re-
move all doubts as to corn being
grown successfully in the Red river
valley. Specimens of different var
1eties of corn, such as yellow dent,
flint, ,sweet and pop corn may be seen
there, all grown by farmers in this
vicinity this year, which has been
rather poor year for corn at that.
Numerous specimens of grains and
grasses, pumpkins big and yellow,
and all kinds of root crops are also
shown. A glass case filled with spe-
cimens and curios of many kinds ga
thered by Mr.. Lamberson during his
travels is an interesting attraction
in the window. Another curious spe-
cimen shown is large chunk of rock
blasted off from large one dozen
miles east of this city. The compost
tion of this rock is remarkable in
that small stones and boulders of
different makeup, some being flint
and granite, are fused and welded to-
gether in another rock formation
making one solid mass Of rock. How
and when this has happened is a
question for geologists., but we be-
lieve their explanation is hatduring

here during Mr.. Lamberson's alb.

CLEAN CORNFIELDS.

Once in great while one will see q
gOod sized corntield which in October
will be entirely clean and free from
weeds. Many farmers leave their corn
clean in July, only to have wilderness
of weeds grow up later. How can a
man secure "a clean cornfield? We
s tliaiK 1t ean be st,esst sobt Hired by "a
proper rotation Of crops, the corn fol:
lowing crop of clover or pasture
which has killed out the weed growth
Of the lands. We also think it would
pay to run one horse single cultivato1
lightly through the fields along the last
Of July. If it should be a dry time
such treatment would not only dispose
OF the second crop Of weeds, but also
be Of immense value to the growing
corn. Then, we believe that where G
flock of sheep has the run Of the differ
ent fields on the farm it so discourages
the weeds that it Is much easier to Sc
cure clean cornfeld on sheep farm
than on one where they are not kept
We have noticed that the big crops OF
corn are almost always grown on lan(
free from weeds, and we also notice
that such clean cornfields invariabl,
produce a bigger and better crop O.
small grain the succeeding year. Th,
reason of so many weedy cornfields il
that the size of the fields is out Of al
proportion to the ability Of the owne
to care for it, and for some reason h
seems content to grow a half crop O
corn where he might just as we'll grow
full crop on half the acreage will
the same labor. Some day this will
change, and the sooner the better.
