SAThER

Gophers out the 9Th day of January
must be something of rare. bit Of
news, but this was the report made
at the postofice by our stage driver,
and when old Samuel says SO it must
be so, as he is quite a trustworthy
man.
This morning we received a post
card from a dear friend in Pennsyl
vania in which We were taken to task
for an, item which we, not Intention
ally omitted in our last correspond
ence. We beg pardon.
The incident proves that the Trib-
une is not read in North Dakota alone,
but we dare say in every state in
the union. 81 zst
Julius Andahl had quite a lively spin
with one Of his teams one day last
week. While going down a hill near
his home one of the clevice pins in the
eveners dropped out and the pole was
detached from the neckyoke. This
started the horses on a lively run and
understanding that he had lost control
of the team, and perhaps thinking that
he was riding the blind baggage, JUL
us made a dive for liberty and escap-
ed unhurt. He is minus wagon axle
and an old saying is that one mans
loss is another's gain. This applies
in this case as julius brought out
new Mant wagon Thursday. .
Frank Kocher, sr.,, John Flanagan,
Herman Worst, VIM. and Emil Paul
and Peter Harvey, represented this
slocality in the Capital City on Thurs
day.
Lizzie Schonert and her brother Will
lie, have been on the sick list the
last few days, the cause being throat
trouble.
It is reported that Mrs Frank Koch
er, ST., will return home in the near
future. Mrs. Kocher has for the past
seven weeks spent a we'll earned vaca-
'tion visiting friends and relatives in
her native home in Pennsylvania and
when she returns home she will be
pleased to know that she in reality
has become a grandma since she de-
parted for the east

A few seconds afterward, to his
great surprise, a large wasp flew to
the window sill and, after buzzing
around his wounded brother for few
minutes, began to feel him all over.
The injured wasp seemed to revive
under this treatment, and his friend
then dragged him gently to the edge,
grasped him around the body and few

TO CONSERVE
WATERS OF
MISSISSIPPI.
Cutting Timber on Indian
Reservations Must Be
Stopped
RefOfesting Of HeadWaters
Country Of River Must
Be fastened

Chicago, ILL.,, Jan. 14.-Those
alarmed about the future of the Mis-
sissippi river because it's headwaters
region is becoming denuded of for
ests, find little comfort in the reports
of United States government engi-
neers which caused the expenditure
of more than million dollars for
five reservoir dams. In the report
Of Col. F. V. Abbott, acting chief
engineer, for 1876, he said regarding
the reservoirs: Without the addi-
ton of stored waters from the reser-
voir system the river at St. Paul is
liable to fall to stage of OF foot, as
happened in July and August, 1894,
or to zero, as happened in April,
1896, whereas, with judicial and eco
nomical use of the reservoir waters
it is quite practicable to keep the
gauge at St. Paul from ever falling
below feet. A food stage existed
this season from Sandy River to Ait
kin, Mimi, and below, from May 20
to July L, during which period there
was impounded and held back in the
reservoirs over 16,OOO,0OO,OOO cubic
feet of water, the flood waters of a
drainage basin of 1896 square miles,
The cutting of the timber has caused
the filling up Of lakes because the
soil no longer is protected from ero-
sion by rains, and the floods and
droughts will each year become more
violent, and the limit of reservoir
capacity has been reached. It is for
this reason that those favoring the
revival of river transportation on the
Mississippi declare that the cutting
of timber on the Indian reservations
under the Norris bill, must be stop
ped and reforesting be fastened.

Gun Plates.

'These cup plates assure us that this
1OO-year-old china service is the real
thing" said an antiquary. ''They stop
ped making cup. plates 100 years ago.
Cup plates" he went on, "show how
table manners change. Now, do you
know what they were for? They were
to hold your dripping cup Of tea-after
you had poured part Of it into the
saucer to drink from-so that the cloth
should not be stained. Yes, in the
past, everybody drank hot tea from
the saucer. Kings and queens. emper-
ors and generals, all, with gurgling
sound, tilted the full saucer with care
full balance to the lips. The cup, mean
while, reposed on the cup plate."- Gin

CHARGE DISMISSED.
Case Against McAllerston for Run
ming. Base Ball Grandstand

James L.. McAllerston of 2O1S 9Th street.
who was arrested yesterday by policemen
of the eighth precinct, charged with run
nine an unlicensed entertainment as re-
suit of his conducting IL cent grand
stand on the roof of his home at the
American League Base Ball Park, was
acquitted this morning in the Police Court
by Judge Mullowny because the regula-
ton in question did not hold in the charge
lodged against McAllerston.
1t was stated in the courtroom that the
defendant was conducting a regular bust
ness of charging II cents to patrons for
the privilege of going on his roof during
the base ball games and taking in the
contest from seats almost good as
those of the bleachers The house, it was
stated, is situated in such a position i'm
medistely off from the ball grounds that
clear and excellent view can be had or
the diamond and outtied, and every play
pulled off can be clearly discerned.
The attorney for the defense contended
that as McAllerston was not running the
ball game. and. in fact had nothing to do
with the club. he could not be held under
the unlicensed tertanment charge. The
court upheld the argument Of the defense
and dismissed the case.
