DOrsay have several songs, and there also is large chorus, the entire company numbering nearly 50 persons. While the management makes no positive an- nouncement to this effect, Miss Loftus probably will find an opportunity dur ing the progress of the entertainment to do one or more of her limitations.

Food For. SQUIRRELS.

Most people who feed the gray spur
rels in the big parks fail to realize that
1t is no Kindness to give these pretty
little animals such soft shell nuts as
almonds, peanuts and chestnuts. HUI
man beings who do not have to actual
" forage for food naturally enough feel
that it is thoughtfulness Itself to save
the squirrels work. The fact is, how
ever, that a squirrels teeth grow SO
rapidly that, deprived Of their normal
use, they might even through their very
useIessness become long enough to put
this charming rodent Of the trees 10
danger Of starvation. Hickory, pecan
and hazel nuts are the proper food to
throw to the squirrels Brooklyn Life

People have different ideas as to
what constitutes holiday or vaca-

fixed opinions on the subject.
II don't count Thanksgiving or
Christmas or Washington's birthday or
any of those holidays" she said frank
" to an old friend one day. What I
count a holiday is when Ezra and Jim
and Bob and Liphlet 60 off up to the
wood lot with their dinner and know
they won't be back till night
'4I'm not one to deny that men folks
have their good points, but how WON
an can call it holiday when they're in
the house calling for food by looks
when they aren't by words is beyond

Grand Forks Times: States Attor-
ney j. b.. Wineman of Grand FORKS
county has prepared a bill amending
section 1882 of the revised codes of
1905 relating to redemption of sale of
real estate for taxes, times of payment
of subsequent taxes and rate of inter
est thereon.
A change in this law was recon-
mended by the North Dakota Auditors
association The sale for taxes takes
place each year in December. On the
following March the taxes become de
linquent on the property for the year
previous, and at that time the pur-
chaser Of the tax certificate pays the
tax, Should the owner of the land
wish to redeem the property he must
pay two per cent per month interest
on the amount paid for the tax certifi-
cate and also for the taxes paid The
amendment recommended is that the
purchaser of the tax certificate shall
not have the right to pay subsequent
taxes on the property until the first
day of November following the date
upon which such tax became delin-
qaent.
The change would mean that the
county would get fourteen per cent
interest on the tax and should the
owner wish to redeem the land on
Nov. I it would save him ten per cent
The charge of the Spectator in tax
certificates is two per cent per month
The bill is as follows:

of sale up to the date Of redemption
with interest at the rate of two per
cent per month from the date of pay
ment of such subsequent tax (which
date Of payment shall not be prior to
the first day Of November after the
date upon which the subsequent tax
became delinquent). IN case any
piece or parcel of land was not sold
for want of bidders, then any person
or corporation not having an interest
therein shall have the same right Of
redemption from the county, and on
the same terms as from purchaser at
tax sale. The county auditor shall
certify to the amount put upon such
redempt ion. and on the payment of
the same to the county treasurer he
shall make duplicate receipts for the
certified amount describing the prop
erty redeemed, one of which shall be
He'd with the county auditor, which
shall have the effect to annul the sale.
II the amount so paid for the purpose
of redemption be less than required by
law it shall not invalidate such re-
demption but the county auditor shall
be liable for the deficiency to the
person entitled thereto. Minors, in
sane persons, or persons in captivity.
or in any country with which the

tate in or liens on land sold for taxes,
many redeem the same within three
years after such disability ceases; but
in such case the right to redeem must
be established in suit for that pur.
pose, brought against the party holding
! the title under sale. Any person who
has or claims an interest in, or lien
upon, any undivided estate BY paving
into the treasury a proportionate part
OF the amount required to redeem the
whole; and in such case the certificate
OF redemption shall express the estate
or interest redeemed
Sec. 2. Repeal All acts or parts
OF acts in conflict with the provisions
OF this act are hereby repealed.
Sec. g. Emergency, Whereas taxes
on real estate become delinquent on
the first day Of March each year. and
IN order to save to taxpayers the
additional interest given to tax certifi-
Gates purchasers upon the payment of
subsequent taxes, this act shall take
effect and be in force from and after
its passage and approval.

A PULLING FEAT.
The Wonderful Cora Growing Magic

1hG WOmuGrfuA Corn Growing MaHAo
.,,s OF the Zunt Indians.
\ The medicine men among the Zuni
Indians perform feat at the annual
s.'corn festival which surpasses tie
famous mango growing trick Of Tie
Hindoo. Many scientists have been
present to witness this strange cere-
mony, but have never been able to
fathom the mystery Of it.
In front Of the southern opening of
the medicine lodge large square Of
clean yellow sand, carefully smoothed
and packed, ID spread. With a ceremo-
NAL arrow; figures representing the
Great Spirit, the earth, sun, sky and
rain are drawn. There are also the
symbols Of the corn and a bountfful
harvest. The indentati tons made by the
arrow are then filed in with pigments,
blue for the sky and clouds, black for
the earth and chrome yellow for the
harvest. The middle of the square is
left vacant. This picture in sand paint
ing is most pleasing specimen of bar
barrie art ;5sS 81
The hour for the ceremony arrives,
and at the right moment the medicine
man comes forth from his lodge and
takes a seat in the opening of the
lodge, facing the sand square. The
warriors and chiefs arrange them
selves around the square according to
rank. The ceremonial pipe is then filled

blows one puff in each direction Of the
compass and two to the heavens. He
then makes an address, going over the
past history of the tribe and the kind
ness Of the Great Spirit and his care.
He concludes with a prayer for the
continuance of this favor. Z.
The great moment has arrived. With
impressive solemnity the medicine man
thrusts the sacred arrow into the sand,
Withdraws it and places a grain Of corn
into the hole thus made. Carefully
smoothing the sand over it, he resumes
his seat, while the assembled chiefs
smoke their pipes in stolid silence. If
the Great Spirit conde scends to answer
the prayer Of the medicine man and
he generally does-the corn will sprout
and send up shoot, After an interval
Of fifteen or twenty minutes the, sand
seems disturbed at the spot where the
grain Of corn was planted, and soon
the slender green blades Of the sprout-
ing corn are seen above the surface.
The plant continues to grow rapidly
and naturally during the day, and by
the next sunrise the silk and tassels
appear. BY noon the stalk and ear
have reached full maturity and the
ripening begins. Finally the blades
and husks turn yellow and rattle when
the wind shakes them. All this, we
must bear In mind. has been done in
thirty-s hours. On the morning Of the
second day the corn growing is com
plete. The medicine man now adj
dresses the watchers who in company
with him have watched the plant grow,
for it is never left alone. With appro-
pirate ceremonies he symbo lizes the
harvest by stripping the ear from the
husks and placing the corn in his bag
for future use. The stalk is pulled up
by the roots and hung over the door of
the lodge.-EeW York Herald.
