No Fences in BeIqium.

In beautiful Belgium there are no
fences. Neither are there hedges, as
in England. The boundaries of the
fields are raised up by fairly high
earth banks, and the roads are cut
out of them, as it were, SO that when
you are walking in the country you
are down in a sort of valley, with low
green banks on either side of you.
The things that are chiefly cultivat-
ed in Belgium are the beet root, for
making the cheaper kind of sugar,
you know, and you can see field upon
Held of their reddy-green leaves
stretching on either side of you as
you walk along.
Flax is also much grown over there,
and n summer time the fields are
such a pretty sight when the pale blue
max blossoms are out in full bloom.
Belgian asparagus is also renowned
all over Europe. It has white instead
OF purple-green tips, like our home
grown asparagus.

$120 Per Acre.

Starkweather Times: It is
sometimes wondered how people
live in thickly settled countries
where each family is confined to
a small area of land. Jake Kunc,
of this place, has demonstrated
that five acres of Ramsey county
land is enough for any man to
make a living from, if he puts it
into the right kind of crop. Last
spring Jake rented five acres of
land on the townsite from j. M.
Kelly. He got some chickens and
put in a garden. Early in the
summer Jake was seen on the
streets with onions, radishes, let
tuce and other garden truck
where he found ready sale for it.
He raised some of the finest
chickens and sold them at good
prices. He is now marketing
beets, carrots, celery, potatoes,
etc, and says that he will sell
about $500 worth of stuff from
this little fve-acre plot and this
was a poor year for garden truck
at that. All summer long Jake
has found time to do odd jobs,
such as loading cars, splitting
wood, spading ground, etc and
has made more than enough in
this way to pay all his expenses
for board and clothes; and Jake
has had no trouble keeping hired
help and paying high wages, for
he does I'll his work himself. AS
far as he is concerned the labor
problem is solved. If people
would diversity their crops more
they would find a better harvest
awaiting them in the fall.

Warning Issued

w. c.. McFadden, secretary of
the North Dakota Bankers asso-
citation, has sent out cards an
nouncing that fraudulent checks
are being passed in the state.
There is at least one smooth
CRATER at work and it is probable
that others will come to light in
the near future.
The secretary of the association
says:

vised Of fraudulent checks drawn

This is a dangerous check and

The party cashing the check has
the appearance of alaboring man.
A very dangerous fraudulent
check has also been passed on
several merchants in Fargo. The
check is a very large check in
form, purporting to be drawn by

VIOLET SHADE WELL LIKED.
Has Attained Much Popularity for
Bedroom Furnishing.

A charming wall paper displayed in
a store window shows an arbor design
of light purple shades upon a cream
ground, says the Chicago News. Pur-
pie tones are so fashionable now that
they are, and very rightly, used con-
slderably for furnishing. They are
particularly clean and pretty for a
bedroom; that is, if the violet or Law
ender shades are selected. For a sunny
exposure violet gives a cool effect.
Most women select blue or pink for
their bedrooms, but if violet is becom-
Ing it is every bit as effective, and If
the solid tone is not used the dainty
floral designs in papering are not suf-
fciently pronounced to> conflict seri-
ously with a dislike for the color.
IN a spare room violet is very pref
ty. One room facing north and east
IS furnished with old mahogany, al
though the two little beds are of
brass. The mating is violet and
white, with two or three woven rugs
OF the same coloring.
The paper shows clusters of violets
on a c~ream-colored ground, and the
colonial fireplace and deep-embrasured
windows are of snowy white paint. The
white lowered muslin curtains have

Mount MckinIey's Difficulties,

In mountain climbing the world
over the climber usually arrives fresh
and unfatigued at the base Of the
peak he wishes to storm, and as a rule
begins his ascent at a high altitude.
On Mount Mckinley, as described by
a writer in Outing, it is the opposite.
There are rs miles of rugged foothills
and glaciers to be crossed-with
heavy packs-before the base of the
mountain is reached, and then the
climber is confronted by IS, 1000 feet of
rock and ice.

Clean Old Cloak.

1t IS not always necessary to send
llght cloth coats or cloaks to the
cleaners whenever they appear a little
soiled by smoke and dust. A success.
III method of removing surface dirt
consists in rubbing the material with
equal parts of oatmeal and whiting
applied with a piece Of flannel. The
coat should be well shaken, and the
same application repeated once or
twice, until the cloth looks perfectly
clean. After shaking it once more. it
should be pressed on the wrong side
with a warm iron.

Hollands Queen Domineerino.

Hollands queen, Wilhelmina, has e
allied notions of her royal authority.
She is said to interfere in a most per
sonal way with the conduct of Dutch
foreign relations. She looks upon the
Dutch colonies as, in some sort, the
private appanages of the house of
Orange. Her prodigious personal pop-
ularity with every class of her sub
Jects saves her from some of the con
sequences of her unconstitutional ten

Women Who Write at Home.

About n woman in 100 keeps up
her music after marriage, although
they may have passed years of their
own time and spent many dollars be-
longing to their fathers in study. The
number that drops off in art is even
greater, but writing has a fascination
difficult to resist. A great deal Of the
writing done by women comes from
homes, more or less comfortable and
happy. Much of it is the kind not
easily duplicated and it would be non
ems to compel such women to forget
their talents. Many a son has been
fitted for his life work by the ability
OF his mother to earn money at a

BANDITS STICK UP SALOON.
Carry of $500 and Make Their Escape
Into the Night.

Silverton, Colo.-The most daring
and cleverly executed stickup in the
history of Silverton occurred Thurs
day morning at 2:45 o'clock in the sa-
loon and gambling house of Slattery.
Three masked men, dressed in the
garb of rough riders, raided the place
and escaped with s3,500 in cash be-
sides several valuable diamonds and
several guns before the occupants had
fully realized what had happened.
There were twenty-five, but none of
fered resistance. They were herded
in a corner at the point of guns, as If
so many cattle, and made to face the
wall while the bandits gathered their
loot. No attempt was made by the
robbers to search their victims or
their haul would have been much
larger.
Several of the patrons as well as
those employed by Slattery wore val
liable diamonds and many carried
goodly sums of money. These were
not molested, the robbers confining
themselves to taking the contents of
the cash drawer and safe. When their
work had been accomplished the trio
disappeared through the rear door and
were lost in the darkness. A sheriff's
posse was Immediately organized, but
failed to capture the bad men.

CORPSE Gets
UP and WALKS
HAD LAIN ON MARBLE SLAB IN
MoRGUE TWO DAYS AND
LIVES.
KNEW ALL GOING ON
WHEN CORONER STARTS POST
MORTEM EXAMINATION
DEAD MAN COMES TO.

st. Joseph, Mo.-John A. Hall. a
railroad man, who came here recently
from Sabetha, Kansas, was found in
the yards west of Locust street few
nights ago, apparently dead. The body
was removed to a morgue, where it
lay on slab all night, after Hall had
been pronounced dead by the police
surgeon.
On the following day Halls body
still lay on the slab in the morgue un-
til late in the evening The coroner
had been busy during the day and had
no time to look at the corpse. When
he went into the morgue he was ac-
companied by one or two other physi-
clans and those who had found the
body of Hall. The witnesses were
questioned and it was learned that he
had nothing in his pockets from which
his identity could be established No
body at that time knew his name OF
where he had lived
The coroner decided on a post NOR
tenn examination and left his assist
ant to do the work
The assistant took up the knife and
drew it down Halls abdomen, split
ting the skin several inches Almost
as soon as the knife touched him Hall
began to arise from the slab and a
second later stood on his feet before
the astonished doctor.
you needn't cut me OPEN" said
Hall. "Pll answer any questions you
ask me-
Halls clothes were found in another
room and he put them on. Assistant
Coroner Brewer took him to a restau-
rant and had bowl of soup prepared
for him. After he had eaten, Hall de-
clared his intention of going to his
home in Sabetha.
"But you can't go tonight" said the
deputy coroner.
Sure 1 can," answered Hall.
There's train in about half an hour" !"
The deputy coroner wondered how
he was going to account for the alb
sence of the corpse If Hall got away.
He walked with him in the direction
of the passenger station and turned
him over to the first policeman he met.
Hall was released the next morning
and was allowed to go home.
Hall declared that he was conscious
from the time he fell to the ground in
the railroad yards, where he had gone
to ask for employment He said he
heard all that was said when the cor
oner stood beside him in the morgue
and announced that he would hold a
Apost mortem examination, but was un.
able to move or make an outcry.

Inc warden and guards at the jail
reIuse TO give out any information to
the public regarding the condition of
the prisoners, and refuse to state
whether or not they have seen an

1t is still insisted that both of the
prisoners have confessed that they
were implicated in the burning of the
freight yards which caused the tre-
mendous explosion. 1t is admitted by
the authorities of Boulder, with can
dor, that every means was used to
secure these confessions, and that the
men were in the "sweat-box" for days.
1t is also claimed that Kiser and
Reeves have been intimidated by
being told that mob awaited them
in Boulder and that if they were re-
turned to that city they would surely
be lynched.
A friend of Reeves went to the
county jail and asked to see him, but
he was refused admittance and was
told to apply to Sheriff Bartel at
Boulder for permit. I'VE would not
