Pup Was Found After Long
Absence.

Cando IN. d. Democrat: Olaf Mar
tinson. Cando's sporting barber has a
dog-which statement isn't much in
itself. but Martinson is an uncommon
sort OF sport and has an uncommon
sort OF a dog. About ten days ago this
pup-an English setter-came up
missing. and several days search
failed to reveal his whereabouts. The
other day Gale Lyman was in telling
the boys that when he started to cut
his wheat he found dog in the field
holding point on a covey of chickens
and that all sorts of persuasion failed
to remove the dog. so he swung the
horses into the field and cut around
him. This was bunch for Olaf, and
he Immediately made tracks for Ly-
mans wheat field. Sure enough, there
was the dog stone stiff. still holding a
point on covey of starved to-death
chickens. Olaf called him all kinds of
pet names and gently carressed his
sflken coat, but the dog wouldn't
loosen. So he threw him over his
shoulder and hiked into town and
stopped into the electric light plant
and had Reader connect him with the
big dynamo in order to bring him out
of the trance.

for negro named Jim Hogge, who is
wanted for wilfully setting fire to a
barn at Larimore and burning the
property valued at about $4,000 be-
sides there were three men burned
to death In the barn. 1t was suppos-
cd the negro was one of the three
burned, but a telegram from here
from parties acquainted with the ne
gro at Larimore, notifying the chief
ne was here, led the authorities to be-
lieve he had something to do with
the fire. Upon his arrival here the
chief found his bird had flown after
spending Monday and part of Tues
day in Ross, quite contrary to the re-
ports. which stated he had been ar

London, Oct. 5.-Mr. and Mrs. Max
Fleischman of Cincinnati, who spent
portion of their honeymoon hunting
IN the Arctic regions, sailed TODAY
FOR New York on the Oceanic.
The reason they made such a hur-
ried departure was because they de-
sire to be present as the automobile
race for the Vanderbilt cup, when
they will stop with the brides mother
at her country house.
Before sailing MIR. Fleischman mar
rated the brief story of his and his
Wife's adventures in the Arctic regions.
The trip was made on the Laura. a
sister ship to the Fridthoff, in which
the famous Wellnan expedition was
made.
Mr.. and Mrs. Fleischman were ac-
companied by Mr.. y. c. l.. Learmouth
OF Hanford, Dorsethshire; DR.. G. R.
Holmes and Mrs. Holmes of Cincin-
natl and Magnus K. Glaver OF an Arc
tic ship fitting firm. The crew of nine
teen men was commanded by Captain
oyen, who was first mate of the shin
which carried the Swedish expedition
north.
Leaving Tromsoe, on the coast of
Norway. on June Is, the Laura pro-
ceeded north, making for Spitzber-
gen. But they had a hard task. for
the party spent AZ days ramming
steadily against gathering ice in an
effort to land on the northeast coast
or Greenland. The attempt to land
had at last to be abandoned off Shan
non Island, and Mr.. Fleischman, with
MIR. Learmouth and DR.. Holmes, spent

o weeks hunting bear and seal over

the ice.
Here Mrs. Fleischman, by excep-
tionally fine craftsmanship with a
Savage rifle. killed two polar bears,
one OF which was the largest bagged
on the trip. The male members of
the party were absent and the shin
was stationary in the ice at the tire.
At Spitzbergen Mr.. Fleischman and
his guests inspected and took pictures
OF the Wellman expedition camp. Mrs.
Flieschman and Mrs. Holmes during
the trip wore sheepskin dresses lined
with leather and the men of the party
had water proof suits. On the trim
they killed 30 head OF reindeer. 100
seals and % polar bears, of which
Mrs. Fleischman shot two. Two polar
bears were caught alive.
Mrs. Fleischman in an interview
said: Unless a woman is prepared
to put up with lots of hardships, to
sleep in bed room 1-2x6 feet. to
often go without tub for two or
three weeks on end. to eat what food
comes along and to stand any amount
of cold. would not advise her to fol-
low my example.
However, was not i'll a minute
and can safely say have never en-
joyed a holiday more"
On the return trip Mr.. Fleischman
landed two of the crew on the Island
OF Jammin, where they intend to spend
the winter trapping blue foxes. When
the Laura reached Tromsoe again Mr..
Fleischman and Mr. Glaver spent sew
eral days reindeer shooting in Nor
way, while DIR. and Mrs. Holmes pro-
ceeded to Berlin. Mr.. Fleischman in
tends to present one of the two polar
bears captured to the Cincinnati Zoo

considerably larger than that.
Inc animals which are purchased

The demand for horses has been

Much improvement has been going on
throughout the northern part of this

been need of horses. Every year Du-

users of horses buy here.
Business in horse selling is getting
brisk now and will continue so for
the next three months.
Most of the horses being received
by local dealers at present are heavy

$250 and $500 apiece are paid for
some of the best of these animals, but
other good ones can be secured, of

UNIVERSITY LIBRARY.

A short resume of progress in the
library during the past year may be
of interest, especially to those who
rarely visit it. The most important
event of the year and perhaps in the
entire history of the library, was the
offer made in April by MIR. Carnegie of
$4,000 for the erection of a library
building. This offer contained the con-
dition that the university should set
aside each year at least $4,000 for the
maintenance OF the library. The uni
versity trustees accepted the offer and
voted to add to the amount OF Mir.
Carnegie's gift similar amount, thus
providing for a building to cost about
100000. With such a prospect, the
library is at last assured of beautt-
full and commodious home. and an in
creased income.
During the past year the library re-
ceived 1882 volumes. OF which 636 were
gifts. The principal gifts have been:
From the State Historical society.
about 300 volumes, mostly out-of-date
medical works; from the Teachers COL
lege, Barnard's American Journal of
Education" 81 volumes; from Mrs.
John NJ. Cochrane, SO volumes to be

10 volumes of new works in engin-
eering and mining. intended as a men,
orial gift. Besides the Scandinavian
collection, which now numbers over
1900 volumes and many pamphlets, the
library has acquired Miles, Weekly
Register" volumes 1-59, an invaluable
work for reference in history and poll
tics. and two handsome pieces of stat
uary. the gift of the arts and normal
classes OF '05.
The number OF volumes owned by
the library on the 18th OF June. 1906,

MODEL AFTER RUSSIA.

The idea that anything in the ma.
ture of reform in the postal service
could come out OF Russia is regarded
by postal officials at Washington as
rather remarkable. The Russian gov
eminent Is SO backward in all mea-
sures OF reform and certainly not 50
Tar advanced as are most commercial
nations In matters relating to the car
riage of the mails that the idea of
obtaining any pointers from the nos
tai system OF that country hardly has
been thought OF by our postal Off
Gals.
Attention has been called, however.
to che plan in vogue among the Rus
Sian people which has been suggested
for adoption in this country. 1t is the
plan of placing the name last on the
address upon envelopes deposited in
the mail. Under the Russian system.
the name of the country is put first
IN the address; then the state or prov
ince, followed by the city and street,
and lastly the name of the addressed.
some consideration has been given by
the postal officials at Washington to
the adoption of such system, as tend
ing to facilitate the rapid distribution
of the mails. An illustration of how
an address on an envelope would lcok
is given like this:
U. s. A.
North Dakota,
Grand Forks,
145 DeMers Avenue,
John E. Smith. ESQ
The point made is that the first
thing which the postal clerk desires
to know is the country to which the
letter is to go. and the last thing Is
the name of the person to whom i,
is going. While there are no evil
dences that this system will be adoDt-
ed, as 1t would be a peculiar innoya-
ton In the postal system of this coun-
try, 1T Is regarded by those whose al
tention is attracted by curios in pos
tai and other affairs as being worthy
OF some consideration.

This link will be connected and the Kent road made a standard gauge.
 Not many weeks ago Walter Kent ap- piled for charter for another road which is to be erected from Greensburg to Baton Rauge The new interests announce that they will construct it. thereby creating another road from Hillsdae to Baton Rouge through a new country.
 It is further announced that all this recently purchased timber land Is to be colonzed just as soon as the timber has been cut off, and that truck farms will be established.
 The new company also states that 1t will erect a double band saw mill at Natalbany, La. and that it will have a capacity of 150,000 feet per day. The mill at Tangipahhoa will be torn down and moved away Other large mills are to be established in St. Helena parish and a number of new towns will be built up along the line of the proposed Hills dale and Baton Rouge road.
 The Weyerhauser company is one of the largest lumber concerns in the United States. It's headquarters are in Rock Is- land, and the company controls nearly all of the timber in the northwest While some of the southern timber will be sent to New Orleans for export, 1t is probable that the bulk will be taken to the north to fill the immense interior demand.
