Claim Nearly Cost Life.

Fred LicNtdty, of this city, had a
terrible experience while holding down
a claim which he has several miles
east of here. He went TO the claim
Just before the big blizzard of last
week. The weather previously had
been mid, and McNulty had no store
of fuel in the shack. The storm was
so fierce that he could not make his
way home, so he went to bed in order
to keep from freezing to death. For
three days the storm ragged, and Nc
Nulty lay covered up to his ears, with
out a bite to eat and only a small
quantity of water. When at last the
storm subsided he made his way to a
neighbor's, a mile distant, freezing his
face and ears while en- route. When
he finally reached Minot he was COM
PEELED to take to his bed as a result
of his experience.-Minot Correspond

The SUNNY South.

Now when all outdoor farm work
has ceased in the north, the term
sunny south" and all that it means,
appeals with full force to the northern
farmer as he realizes that with him
1t is a case of remaining indoors for
the next several months consuming
everything that has been produced
during the growing season. In the
sunny south" something can be
raised every month in the year, and
practically every day can be spent out
doors. No blizzards. No sunstrokes.
Cattle-raising is very profitable. Large
profits are made with little labor in
growing fruits, vegetables, ETC., for
northern markets. Strawberries and
cantaloupes are great revenue getters.
Water unsurpassed. Work plentiful.
Lands cheap and productive. For re-
liable information, address G. A. Park,

Fearful Loss by Chinese Floods.

Thousands OF men work all their
lives at securing the banks of the
great Yellow river in China. Yet
every now and then the tide sweeps
away all opposition and the loss in
human life is greater than any war
ever caused. Nineteen years ago the
river burst its bonds. Day after day
the torrent flowed, 20 miles to the
hour, 30 miles wide and ten feet
deep. The food has been described
as that of FIVE Danubes pouring from
a height for two months on end. For
1000 years the Chinese have been en-
banking this river The silt which the
waters bring down from hte noun
tains builds up the bed and raises
the surface OF the water. The banks
are raised higher and higher to keep
in the water and for mile after mile
the river runs over a bed whose level
Is far above that of the fields through
which it takes it's way. But the weak
part OF the embankment is always
found out. The river always breaks
through. And then province is
swept out OF existence and people die
by millions. The death roll 10 years
ago was estimated at from 2,000.00
to 100000.

MUST GUARD THE TRADEMARK.
cubans Register Them and Demand
Royalties from Owners.

Americans who seek to do business
in Cuba are confronted with peculiar
variety of peculation-appropriation OF
trademarks. The department of com.
merce and labor issues a warning to
all manufacturers who have any
thought Of exporting goods to Cuba.
If they do not Immediately register
their trademarks, others will.
Spectators are using the trade
marks of popular American goods, and
the manufacturer of the genuine arti-
Gle when he enters the Cuban market
finds himself compelled to buy out the
speculator if he wishes to market his
wares under the proper name. When
the speculator registers trademark
he has a hold on the American manu-
facturer, and he may demand and col
lect any price.
In some instances spectators hold
ing the Cuban rights to bridesmaids
OF American manufacturers have com
PEELED the manufacturer to pay them
a royalty.
1t is therefore essential that Ameri'
cans protect themselves by paying the
$3.50 required for registration and
thus prevent the confiscation Of their
trademarks.

plsFIeuRlNe SKIN HUMoR.

"Since the year 1894 I have been
troubled with a very bad case OF &C.

dollars trying to cure, and l went to

The American Adder.

A full-grown adder may measure
two feet in length and about six inches
around the thickest part of It's body.
Its movements are sluggish, and Of
course the universal idea prevailing
among the natives of this country that
II is capable of transferring its head
from one extremity to the other once
every six months is due simply to SUI
perstition. The fact is that the tan of
this snake does not terminate in a
point as with ophidians generally, but
is stumpy and resembles the head so
much that it is difficult for an OBJ
server situated at distance of few
yards to distinguish the one from the
other. hence the story of its being two
headed, the fallacy OF which no intelli-
gent observer could fail to detect

1T is perhaps helpful information" :"
he said, but confess that | mistrust
its motive.
ut suggests to me an incident that
occurred last month in Matawan.
"A young woman of Matawan said
to her husband one night:
my dear, there is a gentleman in
the parlor He wants to speak to
YOU
"'Who is it, do you know?' the
husband asked.
Dear said his wife, you must
forgive me-but that cough has both
cred you so much of late-and though
winter is coming on it still clings to
you and oh, if you knew how wor-
ried I've been about you! And she
threw her arms around his neck.
What would | do il l were to lose
you? she moaned.
"'Come, come said the young man

don't die of slight cold. So you've

opinion that the police commissioner
of New York city should be "an in

some satisfaction from the knowledge
that the grand j1ry of New York coun-
