ADJUSTMENTS
The Heir to the HOOrah.

Everybody who has seen a perform
ance of THE Heir to the Hoorah", to
be offered here at the metropolitan
theater on Friday May11 will remem-
Der with grin of inward joy the
Jiu Jitsu scene, in which T. Tamamoto,
the little Japanese actor who plays
Hush, (Joe Lacy's servanD puts Harry
Rich, the big man who plays the butler,
out of the room. One night in New
York the Jiu Jitsu worked like the
Gipsy's curse. Little Tanamoto had
seized Rich by the arm, gotten the APP
proved strangle-hold on his collar and
started the upward motion of the wrist.
which is Rich's cue to stumble back
ward through the door. Unfortunate
ly Mr. Rich's boot heel caught in the
heavy rug; he lurched just as
Tamamoto thrust his arm inward and
upward and, as consequence, exper-
fenced the actual results of the Jiu
Jitsu trick which they were simulat-
ing. Mr.. Rich played with his left
wrist laced up in leather gauntlet
for many weeks. Mr.. Tamamoto is
the only Japanese actor who plays
in English. He is a native of Toxic
a graduate of the Imperial university,
and learned his English before he came
to this country. Like all laps he is
an enthusiastic partisan in the matter
of the Russo-Jap war, and was promin-
ent in organizing benefit performance
for the Japaneses Red Cross. In
this he had the help of all the men,

pany.

Very Considerate.

\ lady came down from upstairs and
asked the manager of the hotel if she
could get glass of water at once
Why, certainly, madam" said the
manager, filling up glass from the
watercooler.
Two minutes later she was back in
the Office again. .
Il don't like to trouble YOU" she
said, but could l get another glass OF
water right awayo" go
No trouble at ALL madam" said the
manager, handing her another glass
Two minutes later she appeared
again. This time she asked for two
glasses.
Certainly, madam said the affable
manager; but could | inquire what
you are doing with so much water?'
Well" she said, Il don't want tc
brighten you, but my room is on fire
and l am trying to put it out"

Ready Wit.

Harry Lehr, apronpos of impertin-
ence, said at dinner at New port:
The English love to be impertinent
to one another. Indeed, the more
ar:stocratic they are. the more, it
seems, they shower upon all sides
their snubs and insults.
Two very great swells, one a young
duke and the other a young viscount,
brushed against each other one night
at the theater.
The duke, anxious to snub the Wis
count, pretended to take him for an
usher. and said, holding out his hand:
Have you a program?'
But the viscount, too quick for the
duke, smiled and replied:
Yes, thank you, my man. I got
one from the other fellow"

the opportunity to see the parctical
workings of the system, but it will
furnish the data from which practically
correct conclusions can be drawn as
to just what crops are proper to
rotate in the several sections of the
state.
While the same line of work has
been carried out for several years at
the Agricultural college, it is evident
that the climatic conditions. as we'll
as those OF moisture and soil, are diff
ferent in the various localities and
that under no circumstances can those
conditions be assembled at the college
In word. it is spreading the agricul-
tural college out over the entire state
SO far as it's experimental work is
concerned. The wisdom of the course
is apparent.
The great plan of those in charge Of
this work are to determine a method
by which there can be rotation with
out in any manner reducing the i'm
portance of the wheat crop which
must continue to be the great North
Dakota staple.
Another advantage which will come
from the new system will be the OPP
portunity which it affords of studying
Of the state. These are said to be
drier than the older settled counties,
and at the present time this seems to
be true. But this condition is not in
any manner inimical to the growing of
crops. In fact, the dry region has al
ready demonstrated its ability to pro-
duce crops that were record breakers.
The methods of cultivation and the
kind of grain best suited to the natural
conditions may have to be considered,
and adopted. These things are the
scientific end of farming, and the fact
that one portion Of the state requires
a different system from another does
not mean that 1t is in any way the
worse.
The western counties have been
largely settled within the last three
years. Many OF the people are new to
the country and the climate, and II

The Municipal Grind.

In municipal court this morning one
man was charged by his wife with
being drunk and disorderly. He plead
ed guilty, and Judge Sullivan SEN
fenced him to thirty days in the coun-
ty Jail, but suspended the sentence
during good behavior. 1t seems the
accused had been up some time ago
on the charge of non-support, and the
matter had been fixed up on the con-
dition that the party support his wife.
The evidence showed that he was maxi
ing fair effort to do so and had been
pretty regular at his work-in fact
that he was somewhat reformed. 1t
was because of these conditions that
he was discharged pending good be-
havior. Knute Kettleson pleaded guilty
to the charge of being drunk and dis
orderly and contributed S. to the funds
of the city and the costs of his trouble
to the officers. s.

they are not properly informed as to
the best methods at the very beginning
of their efforts they will in all prob
ability become discouraged and lose
confidence in the country.
Whether those who have established
these experiment farms in the western
counties had this object in view we do
not know But these are some of the
inevitable results of the work, and if
they serve to inform the new farmers
in that part of the state upon the
proper methods by which the richest
yields can be procured from their
lands. the results alone would we'll

ed and pressed for summer. Not a
very light suit, however, but the
morning. air almost drove him back
to his room and the old winter stand
by for it is not summer yet, by any
means. Pondering upon the poor judg-
ment exercised in donning so early
light weight suit, the Man discovered
an apparation before him which al
most took his breath away and sent a
cold SILVER down the spinal column.
A certain fellow, who aims to be
among the class known as good dress
ers but whose income hardly permits
OF the PROPER realization of such hopes
and aspirations, was moving jauntily
down Fifth street, wearing suit, one
OF those two-piece lice cream" Gre
atoms, the coat of which was far too
short and the cuff on the bottom of
the trousers reminded of the "it's
raining in London remark. Did you
ever see person dressed out of sea-.
son trying to act in accord with his
attire? Well, here was an example.
The chap referred to was whistling a
merry tune, hands in pocket and wear
ing his light weight gray hat in
jaunty manner upon his head. Every
thing about him pointed to his full ap-
probation OF the song, Sweet Sum-
mer, Sweet Summer. Sweet Summers
Come again." but it has not-that is
in the morning, for it's "rawther
chilly dontcher know" If there is
any thing that strikes the Man with
sense of pity and charity it is the
sight of man or woman, youth or
maiden who rushes the season, prob
ably because of necessity and attempts
to force Old Winter off the plate with
out due process of law. The individ-
ual who does this is taking a desper-
ate chance for tussel with Mr.. Pneu-
monia and should forbear. Another
! thing it looks decidedly incongruous.

THOSE EXPERIMENT FARMS.

President Worst OF the Agricultural
college is establishing large num-
Der of experimental farms at differ
ent points throughout the state. The
purpose OF these auxiliaries of the
Agricultural college is to experiment
with and demonstrate the princpal
needs of the farmers in the various
parts OF the state and especially to
test the question OF crop rotation.
The latter has become a decidedly
important matter for the farmers, and
with the disposition to turn the needs
OF the farms in this particular into Il
rad. has caused the serious thinking
people who have given the matter
careful attention, TO keep what OF it
is essential to the success of the state
before the people in a favorable light,
and at the same time divest it OF the
theories that have come from men who
know nothing of the actual conditions
OF the country. and Yet have essayed to
teach the farmers.
President Worst believes in a crop
rotation which gives the farmer Il pay
ing crop each year. yet which does
not keep the same crop on the same
land so long in succession that it in
jures either the land or the crop.
The plan OF establishing the expert
ment farms throughout the state will
not only serve to give the farmers of
the sections in which they are located

a tree, and it does no harm to instill
as much as possible of it into the
children of the country. But the COM
mercial spirit which seeks to provide
an investment for the future will be
able to do more in the way of restor-
ing the forests than all the preach
ments of the ages. The reason is both
a sordid and selfish one, but what
boots it if the results be good?

Sunday a number of boys INDUCED
in the luxury of an open air bath in
the slough north of the N. P. track,
and just behind the grove. The police
took possession of the coats belong
ing to the boys and to recover them
the boys were compelled to accompany
the officers to police headquarters,
where they were released on the
promise of doing SO no more The city
authorities will. however, prosecute
any offenders caught in the act here

That Depot Building. ]

Timber began arriving this morn
ing for the construction of the North
ern Pacific freight depot. The loca-
ton of the building has not been
definitely determined, but it will prob
ably be on DeMers avenue. The mat
ter of the new passenger depot is still
in the wind, it is stated this morning,
and the people are beginning to look
forward to it like they do to the mil
lennium. 1t seems that with the i'm
portance OF this city as a division
terminus the railroad would realize
the needs of creditable depot build
ing and act accordingly.

isfaction that The Evening Times is
not certain as to what Senator Hans
broush's future action may be re-
Gardins the instituting OF suits against
the publications that are engaged in
circulating the libelous "Looting of
Alaska" story. For once the Herald
has inadvertently blundered upon the
truth. AS before stated The Evening
Times is not in the senator's con-
tidence as regards this matter, and
consequently is unable to state posi-
lively just what course he may pursue
in the premises. However. there is
one thing of which it is assured, and
that is that the Herald. fearing the
possible consequences, dare not re-
produce the magazine article in ques-
ton in its columns The Looting of

no doubt, bit just the same. for
reasons sufficient for its foxy publish
