game Of chess) they spoke of the two
greatest behests that the stored East
had ever made to the young and ag-

frowning portals.

M|TTs AND GERMAN SOCKS
Great Northern Road Very Consider.
ate to Snow Shovelers and 9th.
er Employees.

Snow shovelers and enginemen
working on the Great Northern west
of this city are wearing smiles, fur
caps, new mittens, slickers and Ger
man socks, all at the instance of the
Great Northern road. The compan,
donated the articles to the men real
izing the need, on the one condition
that they be returned in the spring
SO they can be used as rags in the
round houses, ETC.
Since the recent trip of Vice-Presi-
dent Hill and General Manager Ward
to this state the entire aspect of the
blockade situation has changed not
due to their efforts primarily though
they helped to systemic affairs, but
to the fact that the employees of the
road stuck to their posts and fought
with might and main. The action Of
the road in doing out supplies and
wearing apparel to the men free of
charge brought home forcibly to them
that the company was looking after
the welfare of the employees as best
it could.
In all over ono thousand fur caps.
socks and overshoes and duck coats
were shipped through this city.

TRACK SECURELY WALLED IN
From Grand Forks to Williston. Rails
are Blocked in the Snow Four to
Ten Feet In Height.

The Great Northern main line tracks
from Grand Forks to Wiliston, and
further west perhaps. are walled in as
securely as if the company had DELHI
erately laid masonry, only the mater
ial of which the wall is constructed
is less permanent than stone would
be. Railway men report the snow
piled up on either side of the right
of way even with the top of the car
windows and higher in some places.
1t is on account of this condition that
the Great Northern is experiencing
more than ordinary distress in at
tempting to keep its lines open. The
ordinary snow pillow will not throw the
great blocks of snow off the right of
way and consequently they roll back
again in the way of succeeding trains.
The number of rotary plows in use is
very limited, not enough to keep the
lines open. The rotaries throw the
snow considerable distance from the
tracks. and their work is therefore
more lasting.

WHERE INGENUITY WON OUT;
Betting Man Had Studied Conditions
Of Wager.

G. 8. Rolls. the English aeronaut
and motorist, was talking in New
York about the aeroplane.
Il think the Wrights will win," he
said. "Santos-Dumont is ingenious,
but the Wrights are more ingenious
still. They are as ingenious as-as q
betting friend of mine."
Mr.. Rolls smiled and resumed:
"My friend, Capt. Bragge, bet an
athlete that he could not hop up a GER
tain long flight of steps two at time.
The athlete took the bet, and made
the trial. But there were Al steps to
the flight, and therefore, after making
20 hops the man found that he had
lost. He paid up, but accused Capt.
Bragge of sharp practice.
"'Sharp practice!' said Bragge, in
dignantly. Well. I'll make the same
bet with you that I can do It,
"The other, expecting to win his
money back, assented.
capt. Bragge then hoped up 40
steps in 20 hops and, hopping back
one. finished in the prescribed manner
and won the bet.''

Alas! the Smile is Doomed,

Society women, that is, the ones of
the "she who must be obeyed" type,
have decreed that it is no longer pro-
per to smile. The face for the woman
in this year Of. grace, 1907, must be
sober and the mouth must be kept
shut. Twas the funniest edict ever
made by a woman, particularly the
kind who dictates to Dame Fashion
because what woman could keep her
mouth closed long enough to take her
first lesson in the new facial fashion?
Only short time ago the women were
commanded by one of the lords of
fashion of Gotham to keep a soft
smile on their faces. Now comes the
edict that the smile must come off. A
stole countenance, it is said, will pre-
vent the coming of wrinkles, and the
girl who laughed with a good loud
ha-ha a few weeks ago will be sad
dened to know that all the mirth in
which she INDUCED was lost. "Above
all, the woman must be firm about the
mouth" said member of the ultra
fashionable set at tea-drinking con-
test uptown the other afternoon. She
said that it's no use for girl to show
her pretty teeth. "The law forbids
the smile of yesterday" she said,
"and also cautions us to keep our
heads erect and our eyebrows down."

BUSY HUM OF MACHINERY
Tie Immense Plant Of the Russell
Miller Milling Company is in
Operation Again.

The danger of a flour famine is
passing.
After an enforced idleness of over
two weeks the Russell Miller Milling
company yesterday started turning
out the Diamond -four again. Ow-
ing to an accident to one of the boil
ers last night the plant will be
closed until tomorrow. The mill
has been nit hard by the car
shortage and the inability of the roads
to get grain to the markets, but it
will probably be able to keep in oper-
alton from now on. Six cars of grain
came in Sunday with thirty-six thou
sand bushels and with what the farm
ers are bringing in should last until
the end Of the week with the mill at
easy running. By that time the cars
should pour in at regular intervals.
The mill when working at full clip
consumes about 3,4O0 bushels OF grain
every twenty-four hours, but at this
time of the year the day shift alone
is retained

kava drinking. This beverage is
made from the root Of the. angona
shrub. which, being pounded and
mixed with water, ferments and forms

suds and ginger ale mixed, and the
relish has to be acquired. 1t is drunk
