What Squirrels Eat.

Squirrels do not entirely subsist on
nuts, as most people suppose. They
are largely fruit eaters and occasion
ally work big havoc in the orchards In
the fall Of the year. They are not
above stealing partridge eggs and on
this account are not beloved by the
sportsman. Even poultry, when they
stray, as they often will, and lay eggs
beyond the confines Of the poultry
yard, suffer from attacks of squirrels
when the mother bird is away. In pine
tree districts these little climbers are
fond Of splitting the pine cones and
eating the seeds thereof. But above
all things squirrels are fond Of fungus.
They will not have anything to do with
the common or garden mushroom, but
confidently deyour the most yellow
and poisonous looking toadstools that
grow In damp woods and fields. They
never store these. for they know well
that fungi will not keep. They devour
them greedily as they come to light
and revisit the spot as soon as fresh
spawn renews the fungus. There are,
however, many kinds of toadstools
that squirrels know to be poisonous,
and these they will not touch.

there had not been case of illness In

lived In, the cottage before him; his
father died at the age of ninety-six
and the mother at eighty mine. He did
not think that there could be much
wrong with the cottage In face OF
these facts. In reply to the clerk the

Court in Session.

The district court under the
presiding Judge Templeton has
been grinding out grist all this
week on the suit of Perrin VS..
Merchant. The latter he
brought suit to recover wages
for the building of a cement
building at Willow City and
the owner, Frank Perrin, has
brought a counter claim for
damages, the building having
been condemned as unsafe to
do business in. The building
having given signs of disinter-
grafton, and Mr.. Perrin has
spent several hundred dollars
in staying and bracing the
building together, but all to no
purpose. The case has lasted
nearly the whole week, and
about twenty-five witnesses
have been subpoenaed on the
case. 1t has been an interest
ing case, and the outcome will
be awaited with some degree
of anxiety.

Lecture Course.

The members of the Citizens
Lecture Association met last
night for the purpose of decid-
ing upon a satisfactory way to
reserve seats for those who
have ordered season tickets for
the lecture course.
In the canvass for the sale of
season tickets this year, it has
been made apparent that many
people are dissatisfied with the
way seats were reserved last
year. 1t IS claimed that large
blocks of tickets were brOu ght
in by some persons, and that
when people who had made it
a point to be on hand when the
board was opened, instead of
getting the second or third
choice, found that all the best
seats were already taken. 1t is
the determination of the com
nittee to give everybody a
square deal this year. After
much discussion it was decided
to limit the number of tickets
that any one person can bring
in to two in addition to those
that he has bought, and paid
for himself. In other words, if
a person has bought two tickets,
he will be allowed to reserve
only four seats. Under this
ruling it will be possible for
those who happen to be out of
the city on the day the board is
opened to hand their tickets to
friends and have them reserve
seats for them, while, on the
other hand, it will prevent a
few to select all the best seats.
The first entertainment will
be given two weeks from to-
night, and it is hoped that all
those who have not yet ordered
season tickets will do so, and
thereby help good cause
along. We want everybody to
get the benefit of the season
ticket rate. as there is no de-
sire to make money for the as
sociation. but simply an effort
to cover expenses.

A Drunken Spree.

One man dead is the result
of a drunken spree by a party
of threshers last week says the
Westhope Standard. One day
last week a party of five men
working on a threshing rig
north of Souris drove to Cana
da, presumably to Waskada,
and while there indulged freely
in whiskey and beer. When
they were ready to go all were
feeling pretty good. On g the
way home two of the party a
little more sober than the rest,
and not liking the company
they were in, got out and walk
ed. Later on another one fell
out, and when the team reach
ed Souris next morning, one of
the two left in the rig was dead
and the other dead drunk. The
fellow who fell out of the rig
was found in the morning by a
couple of young Canadian fel-
lows and taken to the nearest
farm house where he was cared
for. The two got out to walk
finally reached the threshing
rig all right. A coroner's in
quest was held over the body
of the man who died and it was
determined he died from an
over-indulgence of liquor, it af-
fecting his heart which was
weak. Those who knew him
say he was a nice appearing
man, quiet and a good work
man. We failed to learn his
name, but he was a Scandinav-
ian and it is thought that he
had wife in Wisconsin. The
body was inferred in the GENE.
terry at Souris. There is a
moral to this story.
