Leather Cap Saves Life.

1t was leather cap which probably
saved the life of Neil Wheeler, the
son of H. E. Wheeler of Minot. His
father was making some repairs on
the house., and portion of the wall
near the bay window was being torn
away.
Neil was helping to remove the brick
when a seven-foot wall toppled over
upon him. Many bricks struck him,
inflicting a nasty scalp wound and
bruising his head and shoulders,
which were nearly covered by the
debris. He was pulled out of the de-
bris unconscious, and when a physi-
clan was summoned it was found that
the leather cap which he wore had
protected him and prevented possible
Commissions.
1t was the physicians opinion that
it he mad not worn the cap more Sc.
rious injuries might have resulted.

woman makes Journey From valley
City, N. D., on Foot.
Eighteen months ago Mr. and Mrs
George Webster were obliged to leave
their six-months' old baby with Mrs.
James Smith, 314O Indiana avenue,
Chicago. When the mother went on
foot from Valley City to Chicago to
get her child, it was refused her, ac-
cording to the story which she told
Judge Mac in the juvenile court in
that city.
For a year and half the parents
have been saving so that they could
have their child with them. They
lived sparingly, and have even walked
ties to save money, Mrs. Webster said,
and when the husband obtained steady
employment in Valley City she start
ed to Chicago to get the baby, now
two years old. But when she arrived
Mrs. Smith would not give the baby
up, and so the mother appealed to the
juvenile court.
The court decided that the mother
could have the baby if she could show
that her husband had paying posi-
ton in Valley City. Meanwhile he al
lowed Mrs. Smith to keep the child.

AS appears from this table the in
crease in the number of unions and the
total membership was not large prior
to 1905, but during the last two years
it is remarkable, and there is no sign
of a recession or abatement.
AS the unions have been strength
ened, the more exacting in their de-
mands the laborers have become. un.
til ii is practically impossible for the
employers to avoid trouble and
strikes by acceding to their demands.
In England and Germany the number
of strikes are decreasing but in Swed-
en- the opposite is true. In England
only one man out of so is striker: in
Germany only one out of 80: but in
Sweden one man out of every "a is
striker And the willingness of the
Swedish labor unions to contribute to
the strike funds is scarcely less re-
markable than the growth of the
strike sentiment
Yet, in spite of it's labor troubles.
Sweden is very prosperous. as have
previously remarked, and it is certain
that should the differences between la
Dor and capital be settled, the land of
the good King Oscar will become so
prosperous that the temptation to emf
crate to America will largely vanish,
so that the aged ruler will find it nee
essary to send an appeal to Swedes in
foreign lands to come home, as he did
some weeks ago.

FISH WELL EQUIPPED FOR WORK
New Curator Of Historical Society En-.
thusiastic Over Local History Work.

New Curator Of Historical Society En-
thusiastie Over Local History Work
H. c. Fish. the new curator of the
the state historical society, comes to
North Dakota full of enthusiasm for
local history work. He has the quail
fications and energy to make his Of
fee one of great value to the people
of the state.
Mr.. Fish was born at Moline, ILL.,.
and received all of his early education
in that manufacturing city. In 1903
he graduated from the University of
Wisconsin, specializing in United
States history and economics, and in
tine meantime he has taken post grad,l.
ate work in United States history.
Since 1903 he has been working along
historical and archaeological lines in
Wisconsin, AS an active member of
the Wisconsin Archaeological society
he enthused and started the compila-
ton of the Indian and pioneer history
of Wood and Marathon county, Wis
consin. Mr.. Fish is not stranger to
North Dakota. He has been a mem
Der of the state historical society of
North Dakota number of years. and
two years ago he spent six weeks in
the northern part of the state in field
work with the secretary of the soci-
ETY.. Prof. o. G. Libby.
Mr.. Fish resides in Bismarck. Per-
sonally he is energetic, ambitious, and
is whole-souled in sympathy with To-
cal history work. With the great de-
velopment of our state, which is at
present obliterating the old land
marks, we may find in our curator an
officer who will do much to preserve
this old life, and who will keep the
new history for the future.

BOYS HEAD BLOWN OFF.
Receives Charges Of Both Barrels OF
Shotgun While Driving Near Minot.

'aSSSvSS SuaFSSS OF BOUT Barrels OF
Shotgun While Driving Near Minot.
Holding his gun between his knees
while watching for covey of prairie
chickens near Minot, Alvin Albertson
accidentally blew off his own head,
His body was discovered in the buggy
headless and bathed in blood. The
horse and dog, unconscious Of their
headless driver, went a short ways
before they were stopped and the grue,
some sight was reviewed.
The boy, nineteen years of age left
home about o'clock in the afternoon,
and laugli:hgly told his mother that he
would return home with a brace of
fowl for the evening meal. A few
hours later the sad news was brought
to her that her son was dead.
While driving toward the hunting
grounds he had clasped the gun be-
tween his legs, with the muzzle facing
him. He kept on driving, and was
thus prepared to shoot any chicken
that might rise at a moments notice.
He had just reached the top of steep
hill when the 'double-barreled shotgun
exploded the full blast in his face.
There was no struggle. His head was
entirely blown off, and the body fell
on the side. Some people residing in
a house nearby brought the body to
the city.
1t is thought that the jarring of the
buggy going over a rough piece of
road exploded the gun. The boy was
looking right into the two barrels as
he drove, SO received the full force of
the explosion

BY MARTIN W. ODLAND.

Sweden has for long time been
noted for it's iron, both as regards
quantity and quality. According to
the official statistics the mines OF the
country produced no less than 4,5oo..
900 tons of the metal in 1906. an In
crease OF 100000 tons over the output
| Of the preceding year. This vast
amount of iron was taken out of sos
mines, the largest and richest OF
which are found in Norrbotten and
kopparberg The total value of the
iron products of Sweden in 1906 was
27.o00.OOO crowns, and 1O,495 men were
given employment in mining it.
| There has also been an increase in
| the production OF silver, the output in
| 1906 being valued at $4,000 crowns,
NEST of it mined at Sala The amount
OF copper produced. however. shows
| decrease. the value OF the 1906 output
being only 100000 crowns as against
| 2,2O9, 1870 crowns in 1905.
have already alluded more than
once to the strike situation in Sweden,
but in view of it's Importance more
may be said OIL this subject.
Sweden seems to have become the
strikers paradise. In proportion to
the population much more money is
expended on strikes in that country
than in any other, and larger per.
centage of the laborers belong to the
unions. 1t is estimated that there are
to-day 100000 laborers in Sweden, ex-
elusive of farm employees, and of these
2lo,000 or about one-half, are men,
bers of unions. The growth of labor
| unionism in Sweden is we'll illustrated
by the following table. which shows
! the number OF unions each year since
! 1900, tile total membership of them
all, and the number OF women included
/! in the total membership:

Probably the prospects were never
brighter for banner year at the
North Dakota university than at pres
ent. Last year was considered the
most successful in the history of the
institution, but from the number of
requests for catalogues and inquiries
for information received at the office
of the registrar during the summer
months it seems that there is much
more interest being manifested
throughout the state and Western Min
uesota than ever before.
The total number of students doing
work i'll the different colleges of the
university last year was 1854, repre-
| sentirg 12 states and 35 counties.
This was All increase of Is IL per cent
| over the number for the previous year.
With corresponding increase for the
year 1907-08 the enrolment will not
fall far short of the 1000 mark.
Few Rooms Remain.
Some idea OF next years attend
ance may also be gained from the de-
mand for rooms in the different DOR
| mitories. During the summer the
cottage has been enlarged to nearly
twice it's former size, so that larger
number of girls can now be accom-
modated than heretofore. In spite of
this fact only few rooms remain in
the dormitories for women, and all
the rooms in the boys dormitories
| have been promised.
| The inquiries regarding the differ
ent colleges come from larger and
larger territory each year. Particu-
larly is this true of the college of law,
many letters being received from
prospective students in Eastern states
who wish to take advantage of the
very thorough course offered in this
college.
Much Work Accomplished.
With the work on the library, gym
nasiuM, school of mines building, fra
ternity house and the repairs on Da-
Wis hall and the cottage, the campus
has indeed been a very busy place
this summer. Superintendent R. H.
McReynolds and his assistant. Evan
Macllraith, have had a great deal to
do, and through their efficient direc.
ton the work OF construction has
progressed nicely. Some delay. has
been caused through inability to get
material, but the buildings at present
are being pushed rapidly.
The walls of the gymnasium are IN
to the first story, and the floor nearly
all laid. Work on the library has
been hindered somewhat through de-
lay in getting the cut stone. The
brick work on the school of mines
building is near completion. The cot
tage will be ready by the opening OF
school as the work on it is progressing
rapidly. Practically all of the inside
finishing is completed. Davis hall has
been remodeled throughout, and this
work is about finished. When com
pleted both Davis hall and the cot

these figures there are 1912 women
for every 1000 men, a worse showing
than in 1901, when there we're 1,1ss
women for every 1000 men. From thisi
