Two Companies Which WIN Drill
for the Irrigation Fluid.

Saturday last q company composed
Of r. L. Wright. H. j. Colman, John
M. James, Martin Miller and Theron
Stoddard. was formed and is now be-
ing Incorporating under the name OF
the Riverside Artesfan Well Co. At
torney j. w. Graham is attending
to the legal end of the business OF
the company and the organization OF
which has been brewing for some
weeks past.
While the above mentioned COM
pany was being quietly organized a
public meeting was also being held
in Riverside for the consideration of
a similar purpose.
For more than year past the Ar
gus has at intervals agitated the sub
ject of artesian wells and advocated
the organization of company to drill
them, with the object of irrigating
PogueP rairie lands which lie too
high to be watered by the present
government project.
The meeting above mentioned was
called to order, Harvey A Thomas
elected temporary chairman and D. J..
Edwards temporary secretary. 1t was
decided to organize a company with
a capital stock of $4,000, and the fol-
lowing ifficers were elected: Pres,
Isaac Webster; secretary, Andrew D..
Woodward; treasurer, w. T. Rich
ards; attorney and financier, Harvey
A. Thomas.
The company will be incorporated
under the name of the Riverside Ar
tesian Well-Drilling Co., and in the
near future drilling plant will be
ordered, with a capacity for drilling
to a depth of 5000 feet. The stock
holders consist of twenty of the
farmers resident on the dry" pOr-
ton of Pogue Prairie.-Riverside

Quincy is Prosperous.

The cheap railroad rates from the
east are beginning to be felt in our
little town as many homeseekers are
coming in to take up some of the
many rich acres of valuable land in
this valley. Nearly every train brings
in prospective buyers, and new
homes are being formed and new
land broken. Real estate men report
many enquiries from people in the
middle states. mainly from the Da-
kotas, Minnesota, Illinois. Michigan,
Wisconsin. Nebraska, Missouri, In
diana and Iowa. The letters distrib-
uted by the Commercial club are
bearing rich rewards and before the
season ends we will lhave many more
settlers than last year.
Business In town is picking up
splendidly and the merchants are
looking forward to a good spring
trade. This is perhaps largely due
to the good outlook for the farmers
in their winter wheat crop. Although
the winter was extremely stormy and
cold the ground was covered the en-
tire season with a good coat of snow
and this so entirely protected the
wheat in the ground that when the
snow gradually melted of this spring
the wheat in many places had a fine
green sprout and fields had a good
stand. Then, too, the snow melting
slowly there was none of it lost, and
this, with few rains which we have
since had, make much moisture for
the coming crop. Nearly everyone
has started and are we'll advanced
with their spring seeding, the farm
ers in the Frenchman hill district
having finished seeding several
weeks ago. It - estimated that the
acreage in crop this year will about
treble that of last year. and with
the excellent outlook that we now
have. Quincy should take on a new
growth next fall. Those Of the float
ing population, or those who have
finished seeding and have a few idle
days, are obtaining work ON the new
railroad across the southern end of
the county. and thus helping in the
purse. Small towns are springing up
here and there throughout the south
ern part of the county and out mer-
chants thus obtain new wholesale
customers. Stage. lines and tele-
phone lines are being started and in
many other ways the country is
evincing gradual growth.
Quincy has In view a project that
should be a very encouraging thing
with our farmers-the experimental
station-and every farmer in the fiat
should aid in helping to maintain
such an industry, both financially and
morally. The Commercial club is
working on other lines for the bene-
fit Of the farmers and they should
show an appreciative feeling toward
those efforts. With the new $15,-
900 school house. and several new
business blocks about to go up this
summer, our citizens will begin to
be looked upon as power to figure
with in the future. Our brick yard
has advance orders for the seasons
run and our lumber yards are placing
in : large stock QuincQ Gazette.

Those Who are familiar With the
case have strong suspicions = to Who
did the shooting, a. threats had been
made against the young manss life.
and it is believed he was to have
been shot down last Saturday.
Everman was 10 years old and had
been cutting cordwood at the lake
with G. D. Funk. Funk came to the
city today to secure bloodhounds to
ments had been made to pay for
take the trail, but It is not thought
the dogs will be sent, as no arrange
them.
Gave Him No Warning.
Thet shooting took place within a
quarter mile of the hotel. The woman
who was with Everman was employ
ed at the hotel since she and her hus-
band separated. She was greatly
wrought up by the assassination. She
stated she saw the flash of the rifle,
but did not see the man as he ran
away. She stated there was no warn
ing of any sort, the first intimation
she had being the flash of the gun!
The bullet struck the murdered
man in the left side, penetrating the
heart and passing out through the
right side. 1t is Funk's opinion that
the assassin intended to shoot down
both the man and the woman.
The matter has been reported TO
the sheriff of Stevens county and to
the county coroner. The body was
removed to the hotel under orders
of the Loon Lake justice of the
peace. 1t will be held pending an in
quest. tiaaz
Funk expects an arrest for the
murder will soon be made, as the
man suspected of the murder is still
in the town.

ABOUT WOMEN.

The Queen Of Greece has the distinction
Of being the only woman admiral In the
world. She holds the position in the Rus
sian navy, having been appointed by the
late Gar cher cousin) because her father
was a high admiral. A sailors daughter,
she is also a sailors wife. for at the time
Of his election to the throne OF Greece
King George was a midshipman in the
British navy. She is devoted to the sea,
and is never happier than when yachting
with her husband.
Such a wonderful reputation as an expert
trunk packer is enjoyed by the celebrated
Danish actress, Fru Aggerholm, that a
German capitalist, says a Copenhagen cor
respondent, has approached her with a
view to her becoming managing directress
OF q school for professional trunk packers,
which be proposes founding in Berlin dur
ing the autumn. While feeling compli-
mented by the offer. Fru Aggerholm was
reluctantly compelled to decline the re-
sponsibilty on the score of professional
engagements. Throughout Scandinavia Fru
A~ggerholm Is regarded as the worlds
champion trunk packer.

A REVIVAL OF
THE VELVET YOKE.

How many years has 1t been since we
wore cloth frocks with velvet yokes and
sleeves in them? 1t must be twelve at the
least, and the style Is revived for this
winter in some handsome costumes of the
princess type. A deep red cloth which
fastens at the left-front side is finished
with a very deep ruby velvet yoke and
sleeves. A quaint arrangement of this
yoke is produced in a double-yoke effect.
since the velvet yoke is cut in a decided
v shape at the front and back, to admit
of a miniature white vest and collar of
lace. The velvet yoke is outlined from
point to point with heavily embroidered
shoulder pieces, which terminate near the
centre front and are trimmed with hand
some braid rosettes and pendant orna-
ments. The side Of the dress where 1t
closes Is ornamented with braid frogs in
various widths, the largest ones being
about seven inches long at the lower por-
ton Of the gown. A bounce effect Is pro-
duced with embroidery which Is an exact
duplicate. of the. empiecements on the
waist. The style Is really one of the most
gorgeous. at the same time the simplest
imaginable, for anything Of so many rich
materials.

THE SELECTION OF
AN AFTERNOON GOWN.

Much attention is given the afternoon
gown, as much so as the dainty garments
designed for evening wear, for usually the
afternoon garments are presented where
criticism is more liable to occur than at
any social function Of the evening. A rich
black dress is always handsome If the ma
terial is rich looking and the. pattern some
thing graceful. At no time, or at no place,
does cheap black goods look anything but
cheap so never purchase the color only
In the richest and very best fabric. For
an afternoon toilette a good grade Of black
messaline will be effective. and the ma
ter1al permits of dainty tucks, gathers and
graceful folds. In a gown of his kind was
observed a beautiful deep v yoke of black
net lace, outlined with black satin applique
IN a graceful grape and leaf design. APP
plique also outlined the 1ounce and wide
armhoies. The skirt was finished with a
graceful fiounce which was composed Of
countless tucks running from the ton to
almost the bottom Of the knee rufHe. This
gave a desirable breadth to the dounce and
small train. The belt was one Of crushed
SILK. fastened with a plain dark metal
buckle.

81 don't give a fig for what people
think about me-" I heard a young
woman say not a great while ago, but
l didn't believe her and / told her so,
for l don't think she could get along
without the love and respect of her
fellow-being any more than any other
woman, and what woman does not like
to feel and know that she mas won
the esteem of her friends?
AS a matter of fact there is nc
woman living who, deep down in her
heart, does not appreciate being cared
for, respected AMI loved by those with
whom she is brought into daily con-
tact.
And yet how very few there are who
earn for themselves the right to this
enviable position. If one would fain
be in this category of women who are
truly loved and admired they should
know there are a few things to learn
before they can expect to obtain a
place in that class.
Don't find fault with the shortcom-
ings Of others. Be generous in your
Judgment, for large-heartedness always
adds to ones popularity, while the
woman who is narrow-minded is never
admired.
The world loves the one who a
find a ~redeeming quality even in the
greatest of sinners. Inc she who for
bears to strike q defenseless soul is
worthy of the greatest admiration.
Learn to say pleasant things n
think pleasant things about people;
ever look for the good, and not for the
bad; neve. think of self, but be ever
on the alert to aid others; show your
spirit of helpfulness to those around
you, and in turn you will be carried
forward and will buy the love of others
with your winning graciousness.
Above all, do not forget that money
will not buy love and. lastly, do not
forget hat you have an object in life
to make those around you happy; to
keep YOU little garden in the world
we'll tended and free from weeds, so
that when the Great Reaper comes to
] your plot He will have a crop of good,
unselfish deeds to garner n to place
to your account in the Book of Life.
Live In this name and then you
need not care a fig" for what the
world thinks about you.

Yesterday.

Yesterday was just the kind Of a
day to make you appreciate the warm
coziness of your home. The contrast
between the blustery rain and sleet,
and the soft glow of the fire indoors
made you take but little time in de-
Gliding which you preferred. So you
took your favorite book and settled
down to read and to dream, for in
spite of its gloom the prospect outside
attracted you, and again and again you
found yourself gazing out at the tu-
mutt and thinking how clean and bright
everything would look when the sun
shone again.

girls who stayed in yesterday rum

Yo,,r outlook.

Another favorite rainy-day pastime
with many people is the reading Of old
letters, and the reviving of old mem
cries. They take a penslve pleasure in
thinking of the good times they used
to have, and noting the changes time
has made 'since then" Occupations
such as these are apt to leave n a
little blue unless a determined effort is
made to be optimistic.
It's funny the way in which we IDEAL
ize the times we used to have.
We compare them with today and
think it strange that so few particular
pleasures come nur way
This is air wrong, for we are getting
as much out of life as we ever did,
and ten years, or even five years from
now, we will be looking backward to
where we now are and thinking,
Wasn't I the lucky person? l do not
see why l have so little pleasure now"
You look back upon your schooldays
with memories so hallowed by time
that all the disagreeable things have
faded, even chuckling at the thought
of the seedlings you received. But you
didn't stop to consider your happiness
at the time, did you? No. Probably
you hated school for all you were worth.
and spent much time fretting because
the Richest girl in your room was
better dressed than yourself.
But now you treasure every memory
of your childhood as jewels without
price.
Think of these things and realize how
well off you really are. Do not wait for
time to pass to say, '"Those were happy
days.
Just take the trouble to assure your
self that these are happy days." and
then do your best to realize 1t.

spasmodic Neatness.

L knew a girl who entertained a
great fondness for boxes. She used
to save small boxes OF every descrip-
ton, having certain ones to hold GER
tain collars and "d~ew-dads," giving her
bureau a look of perfect neatness, for a
few days after 1t was arranged.
Then she would be in a hurry to go
out, would want a certain ribbon, and,
Of course, would fail to remember which
box she placed 1t in, and biff, bang,
would go the lids, out would come the
contents of all Of the receptacles, and
everything would be a chaos unspeaka-
bic. until rummaging time came round
