Not a Quitter.

Grand Forks Herald, Guesses have
been made that the senior senator from
this state would accept the verdict Of
the people from the state in the last
election, and consider himself down and
out. The senator does not give up Of
fee so easily. He has shown capac-
ity for Office holding, if for nothing
else, and he has started on gum shoe
campaign after the election to another
term. And his experiences in the past
have been such that he would be unwise
to give up, especially as without Office
he would be like derelict ship without
sail or steam, anchor or port. Mr..
Hansbrough was repudiated in 1893 as
thoroughly as man was ever repudiated
and the things that he stood for were
as thoroughly repudiated as he. And
yet he was reelected. And he has not
lost his appetite Office with the passage
of the years.

They are having their annual warm

Alderman Commissioner Patterson an

mayor than did his enemies have him
arrested for fracturing the prohibition
law. Two of the dining room girls Of
the Northwest made the complaint,
because they could not get their pay.
Patterson, however, settled with the
girls and they hastily left the city on
an eastbound train. Then in steps the
state and presses the charges without
the complaining witnesses and it is
also maintained that among other things
that the Northwest hotel was used as q

The West End.

Why is 1t that in most of the cities
Of the world fashion makes its home
in the northwestern quarter? Why is
It that the "west end" is so often the
aristocratic section of the city and
"east side' and "south side" SO often
the residence Of the poorer classes?
It is a fact, and there is ruling cause
for it. Is it this-that the prevailing
winds Of the earth are northwesterly :?
They are in general northwesterly, and
their tendency is to blow the dust,
smoke and odors of city to it's east
ern or southern side. This makes the
opposite quarter the more desirable for
residence.

have a jolly tussle they make believe
to engage in deadly combat. A strik-
ing instance Of this occurred to a writ
or some years back. He gave dead
mouse to a kitten. It was the frat
time she had seen one, and she snined
at 1t inquisitively before deciding to
toss 1t about. A pair Of slippers lay
on the floor. She dropped the mouse
into one Of them and Immediately pro-
ceeded to look for it most zealously in
the other slipper till I took up the
first, which contained her booty. Then
she showed that 1t was no real lack Of
memory that had sent her on the boot

AIR IN HIGHER ATTITUDES

Same as in Other Places Except 1t
Contains No Microbes.
1t is an error to think that the chem
ical composition Of the air differs es-
sentially wherever the sample may be
gen and other constituents is the same
whether it be IN the heights of the Alps
or at the surface of the sea. The ia
vorable effects, therefore, of a change
OF air are not to be explained by any
difference in the proportions Of its gas
eous constituents. The important diff
ference Is the meteorological one. The
air of high attitudes contains no mi
crobes, and is, in fact, sterile, while
near the ground and some hundred feet
above it microbes are abundant. In the
air of towns and crowded places not
only does the microbe impurity in
crease, but other impurities, such as
the products Of combustion Of coal, ac-
crue also.
Several investigators have found
traces of hydrogen and certain hydro
carbons in the air, especially in pine.
oak and birch forests. 1t is to these
DOuleS, uOuUllSSS COISlSLluS OIL traces
of essential oils, that the curative eff
fects Of certain health resorts are
traced. Thus the locality of a fir for
est Is said to give relief in diseases of
the respiratory tracts. But these traces
of essential oils and aromatic product
must be counted, strictly speaking, as
impurities, since they are apparently
not necessary constituents Of the air.
Recent analysis has shown that these
bodies tend to disappear in the air as
a higher altitude is reached until they
disappear altogether. 1t would seem,
therefore, that microbes, hydrocarbons
and entities other than oxygen and
nitrogen, and perhaps also argon, are
only incidental to the neighborhood of
human industry, animal life and damp
vegetation.

DRESS THAT COSTS $4,000.

Three Hundred Mexican Needlevvom-
en- Made the Wonderful
After nine years of most painstakinS
toll Sonora e. Leon, of Aguascalientes,
living in the city of Mexico, has COM
pleted a dress which is valued at the
princely sum of 100000 gold. She
was assisted in her arduous toll by
300 expert needlewomen, all Of whom
were we'll paid.
The dress was first intended for the
Mexican exhibit at b Paris exposi-
ton. AS it was at that time incom-
plete it was decided to display it at
the st. Louis worlds fair, but the close
of this exposition still saw the work
unfinished.
Aguascalientes is famous for it's
drawn-work and n~eedlework and its
embroidery artists, but this dress ex-
cells anything ever attempted or com
pieted in that city. The dress is an
exquisite and wonderful example of
woman's skill, patience and artistic
conception.
It consists Of a full trained skirt.
Elton jacket and bertha, and is made
of the sheerest linen, the thread for
which was imported from Paris and
bore the number 600, the finest manu-
featured. The design. which was orig
mated by Sonora Leon, Is a marvel.
There are no visible seams In the en-
tire garment, which is drawn In wheels
in such a way that the original fabric
it changed into a flimsy weblike lace,
The dress will be put on exhibition
in the City of Mexico and offered for
sale. No price under $4,000 gold Will
be considered. During the winter,
when the city is filed with American
millionaires, it is not thought that
finding a purchaser Will be difficult
