On the occasion of the ninetieth birthday of Dr. Martineau, who preached in Liverpool for many years. Sir Henry Roscoe, the English chem ist, congratulated him on attaining such fine old age
 The distinguished clergyman said that he had been overwhelmed with congratulations, and that he was working through the letters he had re. ceived.

 One of the most remarkable" Dr. Nartineau continued, was from lady, the only person who addressed me as dear James, I had not seen her since we were boy and girl to- gether in Norwich. She is one of the daughters of Dr. Rigby in that city My friends used to joke me as a young man about Miss Jane Rigby and 1 received their chaff pleasantly.

Admiral Wouldn't Be BIuffed.

The kaiser is a quick eater and the instant he lays down his knife and fork the walters make a descent upon the plates of all at table, whether they have finished or not and clear for the next course. One day the en- peror had on his right an old admiral whose racy bluntness of speech he much relishes. The old salt is also bit of a gourmet, and it so hap pencd that one of the dishes was his own peculiar favorite But the em- peror piled him so with questions and perhaps of malice prepense- that the old fellow could scarcely get chance for a mouthful before the sovereign's knife and fork were laid down and there was the regulation clearance rush. A grasp had already been laid on the admiraTs plate. but. red with anger, he dug his fork into the intruding hand with a gruff Get out!" and went on with a relish amid a general roar of laughter.

DEMAND HAS RAISED PRICE.
largely Increased Returns for the
 Breeders Of Ostriches.

"Undyed and uncurled ostrich feath- ars-feathers in the natural state will be a good deal worn from now on," said the salesman. Tn conse- quence the price has gone up.
 It has gone up all along the line. The eggs, the chicks, the birds, the feathers, all have risen.
 The crop plucked from one bird was worth $75 last year, but it is now worth S110
 Eggs that used to sell for two dol lars apiece bring three dollars today and, by the way, in buying ostrich eggs whack them with a key and see that they give forth a clear, ringing sound, for if the sound is dull they are those papier mache eggs that have fooled so many of us lately.
 Chicks and mature birds, if the de- mand keeps up, will nearly go back to their old-time prices. In the old days a good pair of adults was worth s 5,000 and chicks brought $500 apiece. The price dropped to $50 par for adults and SEQ a pair for chicks. Now, though it has risen 20 per cent.
 q have seen wild ostriches in that cinnamon-colored waste of sand and stone that is called the Sahara desert "a cinnamon-colored waste encircled by fiame-red mountains-and I have chased them many a time on a fleet Arab. But what is a fleet Arab beside an ostrich? It IS a mule cart beside a 90 horsepower racer"

CIVIC IMPROVE
MENT Meeting
MASS MEETING OF LADIES AND
INTERESTED GENTLEMEN Isl
CALLED AT COURT HOUSE FOR
NEXT WEDNESDAY EVENING,
WHEN 1T is HOPED AN oRGANi-
ZATiON WILL BE EFFECTED.

The ladies of the city interested in
civic Improvement and animated with
desire to aid in making Bismarck in
truth the city beautiful, have called
mass meeting at the court room of
the court house for next Wednesday
evening, and in due time individual
notices will be sent out to all the
women of the city, regardless Of age,
nationality Or social condition.
In initiating this movement it is
hoped by the promoters that every
woman in Bismarck will attend the
meeting, as what is most desired is
that all cooperate in the work of city
improvement in all that the term i'm
plies. The rich and the poor are ami.
mated with the same desire to make
their homes not only attractive tc
themselves, but a pride to their
| neighbors. All this can be accomplish
ed with very little trouble Or expense
and to form plans for general work
along these lines, SO that it will cover
not only the homes, but the vacant

FOR NEXT AUGUST
MEET WILL BE HELD NEAR BER-

DENT.

The annual meeting of the North
Dakota Field Trials club was held in
Grand Forks recently. and before the
adjournment plans had been made to
hold a big meet on the grounds be-
tween Berwick and Towner on August
25, 26 and q. The purses will be
$500 for the derby and $3.50 for the
all age The following officers were
elected: Il
President, E. c. Cooper Of Grand
Forks.
Vice president, H. G. Halvorson of
Milton.
Secretary and treasurer, j. E. Tur-
ner of Grand Forks.
The meet will be held the week
previous to that held by the Manitoba
club. There was discussion as to
the advisability of having the meet
in the closed CIR open season and the
final decision was in favor of the
closed season, the Experience of last
year, when the meet was held in the
open season, convincing members that
the closed season was best. 1t was
the opinion Of the members of the
club that more satisfactory results can
be obtained when the birds are plen-
tiful and not scattered.
1t was decided to invite Nat B.
Nesbit of O'Neil, Neb., who officiated
at the trials last year as judge, to
take that place this year. 1t is be-
lieved he will accept. He gave good
satisfaction last year.

The Slaughter Of the Trees.

Last year we cut nearly forty bill
lion feet of lumber, board measure.
1t may be interesting to know that
in what proportions the different
states furnished this supply In reIa-
tive order partial list is as follows:
Washington, Louisiana, Wisconsin,
Michigan, Mississippi, Arkansas,
Minnesota, Texas, Pennsylvania
Oregon, California, North Carolina
and SO down. Today Washington
furnishes 11j per cent of our lumber,
and Louisiana IA per cent.
The highest estimate of our re-
naming hardwood is four hundred
billion feet. For lumber, ties, posts,
manufacturers, fuel, ETC., we use
twenty-five billion feet per annum or
more. At that rate it will take us
sixteen years to use up all the rest
of our hardwood--if we do not burn
it,, and If the demand remains the
same! A pleasant prospect, is it

newspapers have misrepresented the
attitude of the Forum and Call at
Fargo with reference to the publica-
ton of insurgent press bureau claims.
Tom says the claims were not sub
mitted to the papers in question-and
if they had been, any newspaper hav-
ing an ounce of political wisdom,
would have been justified in refusing
to publish them except as instances
of the monumental claiming capacity
of the insurgent leaders.

MEMBER OF ASSOCIATED PRESS
IT,.

Although it is conceded that Nc
Henry, Bottineau, Wells and other
big counties will have divided dele
cations, with the majority stalwart,
and although that was the under
standing at the county conventions
when the delegates were chosen, the
insurgent leaders claim the delega-
tons entire from each county Bot
tineau county is placed by those who
know the situation at 10 stalwarts
and 6 insurgents. McHenry county
is placed at 10 stalwarts and A insurg-
ents. Wells county delegation has
perhaps two insurgents. Sargent
county numbers stalwart war horses
with the possible exception of one or
two, but it is glibly claimed by the
insurgent newspapers. These delega-
lions will be at the Minot convention
to speak for themselves, and then it
will be in order for the insurgent
press to claim that superior leader
ship and political ingenuity wrested
from the insurgents the control of
the convention. It is the same game
that was played by the insurgents
in the republican convention of two
years ago, when the lineup of the
delegates justified every stalwart
claim made before the convention,
and when the insurgents claimed
they were thrown down by those who
should have been insurgents like
Congressman Marshall-who was a
stand pat stalwart then and who is
now a suddenly converted insurgent.

The passage of the Gamble bill to
throw open parts of the Standing
Rock reservation by the senate, in
dicates that quantity of valuable
agricultural land will soon be avail
able for private settlement. The
lands are to be appraised and CLASH
fled, and sold for not less than the
appraised value, and the Indians will
receive annually their per capita
share of the proceeds. The state will
receive part Of the land for school
purposes and coal lands will be re-
served. Gradually the big reserva-
tons that were set apart years ago
for the Indians are being broken up
and the result will be greater areas
for settlement and greater wealth for
the state in which they are contained,
since large bodies of unsettled land
cannot but retard the growth of the
country where they are located.

the object of this meeting.
If, as it Is believed, a large major
ity of the women of the city are hear
tily in sympathy with slch an under
taking, the meeting will result in the
formation of a civic league and great
deal of good will result therefrom.. All
gentlemen interested in this object are
cordially invited to attend the meet
ing and gain an insight as to just what
is planned and how those plans are to
be worked out. 1t is hoped the court
room will be packed, as the meeting
is open to all and all should take part.

The statutes of the grand comman-
derry of North Dakota inferentially de.
clare the following festival days:
Good Friday, Easter day and Ascen-
sion day obligatory upon all knights
Templar within this grand iurisdic-
ton.
Although obligatory, we should
deem it privilege rather than a duty
to observe them and profit by the les
sons 50 beautifully and impresively
taught in the Order of the Temple. \
The order with which We have unit.
ed is founded upon the Christian re-
ligion and the practice Of the Chris
tian virtue. The above days commem.
crate the great facts in our most holy
religion.

The usually dignifed, if not polit-
ically reliable, Grand Forks Herald,
INDUCES in several spasms because
some of the republican leaders of
the state met at Bismarck to discuss
the campaign, and the Herald
shrieks gang with every second
breath. From the vigor of it's dia-
tribes and the tables of delegates
that it finds necessary to fabricate
for the deception of its readers we
should imagine the Herald saw some
fearsome political spooks somewhere.
In the last campaign the Herald
threw fits because some North Da-
sotans occasionally visited St. Paul.
