perfect for a paper manufactory, the
power being sufficient. the fuel being
at hand, the railway connection being
obtainable and the pulp of the bay
tree being requisite. Mr.. Burge also
talks OF the CONSTRUCTION of a plant
for the generation of electricity ION
the falls site, which will furnish cleo
trio power and lighting for the city
OF Hattiesburg, which is only 20 miles
distant.
Mr.. Burge, in discussing the pur-
chase yesterday. stated that he had
secured an option of the falls, and
then had employed It. w. Nichols, a
civil engineer and architect of this
city, to survey and estimate the cost
of a dam and the amount of power
obtainable therefrom. Upon the re-
port of Mr.. Nichols, which was submit
ted yesterday, Mr.. Burge decided to
take action in securing the falls prop,
erty, and accordingly notified his at
torney at Seminary to secure the alb
stract of title to the property and for
ward the same to him.
Mr. Burge stated that he had not
fully decided upon a plant to con-
struct at the SeEiDary Falls, but had
been looking into the matter of paper
manufacturing, and also the maHufac-
turing of electricity.
Continuing in the discussion of his
proposition, Mr.. Burge said:
IF the newspaper within a radius
OF 200 miles of Seminary Falls will
give me sufficient encouragement
looking to the disposal of the output
of paper from a plant there viii be a
paper manufacturing plant erected

Inclined to use the natural water

tricity to supply Hattiesburg, 20 miles

have already secured property con-
tanning a sufficient supply OF bay trees
to give the pulp for papermaking
given under pledges, to supply a plant
of 10 tons capacity for fifty years
Projects Feasible.
Commenting on these projects The
Meridian Dispatch says:
Both of these projects seem feas-
ible. There is plenty OF material be-
sides bay trees available which show
prospects of being brought into use
for papermaking-corn, cotton, and
olra stalks. While these three waste
products of the fields and garden have
not yet come into use for the purpose
indicated. experiments give encourag.
ing results and the processes are sure
to be perfected.
Whether a paper mill, equipped ia
make paper of wood, would be pre-
pared to work up such material as
cotton stalks, corn stalks, or okra
stalks, we do not know: but a bulletin
which happens to be before US says
that "an woody fibers is essentially
alike and one form of it is preferable
to another to the papermaker only
because its treatment for his purpose
is more convenient or less expensive"
The waterpowers of the South are
to be put to all their uses The
movement to harness Seminary Falls
is quite sure to awaken interest again
in that power wasting itself almost
within hearing distance OF Meridian.

HEAVY STORM IN
M'LEAN COUNTY
CONSIDERABLE DAMAGE DONE TO THE
GROWING CROPS ALONG A WIDE
SECTlON---WOllAN INJURED

Harvey, N. D., July 27-While
Harvey and surrounding county
was being treated to drenching
rain storm that made a good many
dollars for the farmers, Mclean
county was treated to young
tornado accompanied by hail
which swept a strip of country
about six miles wide for distance
of nearly thirty miles.
Mr.. and Mrs. e. H. Foster of
our city, who were visiting at Mrs.
Fosters parents just east of Cole
harbor, were right in the storm,
which came near resulting serious
ly for Mrs. Foster.
As the storm came up she went
to a shed short distance from
the house to put the side curtains
on buggy. While there the
wind blew the shed down and
blew Mrs. Foster up against the
house, where she was pelted with
hail until rescued by Mr.. Foster.
The hail was so heavy that it
smashed all the windows and tore
the screens besides battering the
side of the house so badly that it
was badly damaged, the building
itself being moved off the founda-
tion. Mrs. Fosters face and
arms were badly scratched and
bruised from the effects of wind
and hail. The fields all looked as
though freshly disced, the grain
in the path being entirely de-
stroyed. The storm center seemed
to be east of the railroad and ex-
tended from east of Garrison to a
point east of Underwood.

TURKISH WOMEN
DESERT HAREM
TURKISH WOMEN DEMAND FREEDOM
AND PARADE STREE1S-FACES
WERE UNVEILED

Berlin, July 27-The Turkish
veil, which for ages has hidden
the traditional beauty of the Turk
ish women, has been torn away in
the wreck of'the old regime and
now thousands of unveiled women,
leaving harems, are parading the
streets, rejoicing in the new found
freedom.
The innovation, the most start
ling in the history of the Ottoman
empire, is being welcomed by the
men, who cheer the unveiled wo-
men at every opportunity. The
whole outward appearance of the
empire has been changed. On
every hand the smiling faces of
women are seen, instead of the
somber wells that hid them.
1t is the most remarkable feat
ure of the political upheaval in
Turkey which has just resulted in
the granting of a constitution by
the sultan.
The first women to abandon
their wells were those at Monastir,
the hotbed of the revolution.
The command of the Koran
that women should appear yelled
ip public was Cancelled by Mos
lem priest, who issued his procla-
nation from the mosque.
I'VE will help to make the
world beautiful by this act" the
priest declared.

LINEMAN'S DARING STUNT

Edgerly. N. D., July 81. In
order to win wager from friend,
G. A. Moseman a local lineman,
performed stunt here this eve
ming which was probably never
equaled in the northwes under
the same conditions. Mounting
the flagpole on top of the roller
mill, in all about Is feet from the
ground, he balanced himself on
his head. Hundreds of people
witnessed the stunt, standing
breathless with fear of seeing the
man dashed to death to the ground
beneath. Placing a small board
on top of the fagpole he balanced
himself on his head as gracefully
as if he were on solid ground.
He won the $40 which he declared
was easy money! when he reach
ed the ground none the worse for
his experience.

A SURPRISE ON MRS. BOYD

About forty lady friends of Mrs.
Sam Boyd gathered at her home
one afternoon of last week and
gave her very pleasant surprise
party. The occasion was Mrs.
Boyd's birthday and her daughters
had so arranged and planned for
the surprise entirely unknown to
their mother. The guests were
entertained by vocol and instru-
mental music by Mrs. Hardaway,
Mrs. Nelson and Miss Florence
Wilson. In the guessing contest
Mrs. Mansfield won first prize and
Mrs, A. A. Mckay tn con-
ISOLATION.
Just before the afternoon closed
the guests were served refresh
ments by Miss Rhea, Bell, Wilson,
Dora and Cora Boyd. Mrs. Boyd
was the recipient of many useful
and ornamental gifts as a token of
friendship. All report a good
time.

LOTS OF WATER
LOTS OF GRAIN
IRRIGATED PORTIONS SHOW UP FINE
Use OF WATER DOUBLES YIELD
OF GRAIN.


A short time ago we had the
pleasure of taking a drive up the
Muddy Valley and of looking
over w. A. Palmer's farm. He
has great faith in irrigation and
the using of plenty of water. As
a result he has some of the finest
grain in the valley. The result
of the judicious use of the water
is shown up very plainly on Mr..
Palmer's farm. East of his house
and down in the fiat is some of the
finest soil on his farm. The grain
on this field did not get enough
water and is only a fair stand.
West of the house Mr.. Palmer has
a field of about twenty acres that
was we'll watered twice. Here
wheat is about four feet high and
tits one of the finest stands we have
ever seen. As we drove up the
valley we noticed a great differ
ence in fields of grain under the
ditch and we presume it was the
same here as with MIR. Palmer.
Where plenty of water was turned
on the grain was good.

CHARGED WITH
SERIOUS CRIME
COAL MINER CHARGED WITH CHEWING
MANS CHECK BOUND OVER DIS
TRlC1 COURT.

Minot, July 81 Tom Jones,
coal miner, who was arrested by
Deputy Houghton at Stanley yes
terday, charged with committing
mayhem on Peter Streiss was
this morning bound over to the
district court by Judge Harland
of Stanley in the sum of $4,000.
The charge upon which Jones is
held is q most serious one as it is
asserted that he severely chewed
the check of one Peter Streiss dur
ing the argument at the home Of
John Rookie where both we're yis-
ting. Rockies home is located
about four miles west of Kenmare
and it appears that Jones, who is
q coal miner in one of the mines at
Kenmare, came to Rockies home
while Streiss was there and during
an argument that started Jones
and Streiss came to blows and
that during the mix-up Jones got
a grip on Streiss' check and after
the cOmbatants we're separated it
is said that the compliments
check was in terribly lacerated
condition.
The parties mixed up in the af
fair are all we'll known at Stanley
and the adjacent territory and
when the trial comes up in the
district court there will undoubt-
edly be large crowd present.

WEDDING

A quiet wedding was solemnized
at the Catholic church last Satur-
day morning at FIVE o'clock when
Nicholas B. Ludowese and Miss
Marie B. Gahan were Joined in
the bonds of wedlock. The cere-
mony was performed by Father

chased by Mr.. Ludowese.
Both of the contracting parties
have lived here for several years.
The bride has been engaged in alb
stract work the greater part of the
time. She was one of Williston's
most attractive young ladies. The
groom has been engaged in the
abstract business in this city for
over three years. He moved
here from Minot where he was
employed in the U. S. land Office.
The Graphic joins with their
many friends in wishing Mr.. and

UNIQUE EVENT.

A very successful, important
and unique event occurred on Fri
day afternoon last when Doctor
Jennie Farrell, the superintend-
ent, gave reception to the Cradle
Roll babies Of the Methodist
church and their mothers. There
were over 80 in attendance and
had not the storm come up there
would likely have been many
more. Mrs. Hardaway favored
the crowd with some excellent vo-
cal music and the refreshment
committee performed their part
with credit. The parlor was
transformed into a breezy, COM
Portable parlor with flowers, flags
and other decorations. All en-
joyed it very much. This Cradle
Roll was commenced by DR.. Far
rell sixteen months ago and has
had 1873 enrolled of whom 112 are
now active members, making it
the largest Cradle Roll in North
Dakota.
Eight babies were baptized by
Rev. Hollet. Before the crowd
departed a group picture was ta-
ken by Photographer Hansen, as
many of the mothers and friends
wished q momento of the occasion.

LESSONS FOR
The MERCHANT
The LOCAL MERCHANTS MAY LEARN
VALUABLE LESSONS FROM MAIL
ORDER MAN

If you have examined the cata-
logues you will have been impress
ed, perhaps, with the studied
efforts these merchants make to
convince people that they can save
money by dealing with them
save something on almost any
article under the sun.
The appeal succeeds, as you
know; and these merchants win
largely because of the emphasis
they place on this one idea all Of
the time, in all of their advertise
ing.
Now you know that on a great
many things you can undersell
these same mail order people; and
so it seams as though one way to
compete with them would be to
enlarge upon the fact that you can
undersell even the mail order
houses on same qualities of goods.
And in your advertising, it
might be wise to learn one thing
from these people. They take
plenty of space in which to des-
cribe usually in very crude liter
ary style, but still with certain
amount of conviction) the merits
and attractions of these goods
specific, detailed descriptions.
You can make your ads twice as
interesting as mail order cata-
logue, twice as readable but you
should, perhaps keep in mind the
two things that in the mail order
advertising, sell goods. Claims of
money saving--and detailed des-
criptions of articles -and always
iteration and reiteration of the
idea that their prices are lower.
Incidentally, the mail order mer--
chant will not cut into the trade
of any merchant who advertises,
aggressively and adequately in his,
best local newspapers.

DROVE BINDER OVER SON

Fargo, July 27-While cutting
barley on his farm near Cayuga,
n. d., Wenzel Ariz ran into his
little son, aged 3 years, who lay
sleeping in the tall grain and the
sickle inflicted injuries that will
likely prove fatal. The cries Of
the child told him of the accident.
Doctors found that half the right
thigh had been cut off, taking flesh
and muscle and leaving the bone
bare, the left knee was laid open
and the flesh torn from the bone,
the left arm is broken and the
wrist half cut off. The child lives.
but there are slight hopes of its.
recovery and he will be a cripple,
for life.

WILLIAMS COUNTY
IS VERY GOOD
GEORGE ". WHITAKER SAYS THAT
FARMING IS SUCCESSFUL AND THAT
BUSINESS EEN ARE HUSTlERS

Grand Forks, N. D., July 25-
George w. Whitaker An ex-
pert for the international Harvest
er compony says that | was in
Williston last week and visited the
experimental farm and am inn
pressed to the belief that the farm
ers of western North Dakota are
looking forward to the fact that a
system of farming is no more an
experiment, as the manager of the
experimental farm has proven be-
yond doubt that the success of
the farmer depends largely upon.
how he tills the soil and properly
prepares the seed bed. / have
noticed that on the several tracts
of land on the experimental farm
that the deep plowing has proven
to stand the hot dry spells better
than the shallow blowing. OF
course some of the farm is under
the ditch and that portion that has
been subject to the water is far
superior to that which has had no
water. The several small tracts
show III e difference in the
variety of seeds, and am obliged
to say as whole that the expert
mental farm has beyond doubt,
proven that the western North.
Dakota is an agriculture county.
Furthermore the great irrigation
project in this district has proven
to be a great success, and besides
the great power producing system
which will enable the manufactur-
ing of many different kinds of
products, the city of Williston is
very industrious and thriving city.
Its business men are men of vim
and hustle and everybody is on
the move to make Williston the
metropolis of western North
Dakota =
