WILD GOOSE CHASE
 OF DEPUTY SHERIFF
He Followed All Day the Lead of a Man With a Hallucination.

Deputy Sheriff Adams returned to the city yesterday afternoon weary and in a state of temper not in con sonnance with the sacred Sabbath. Mir Adams believed that he had fooled day away to no purpose and he mar veled. that some insane men are so ap-
 parently sane that the difference is difficult of detection except by the laboriOus and time consuming process
 which he had employed.
 on Saturday night man came to
 the office of the sheriff and said that somebody had stolen four cows from
 him and he had reason to believe that
 they had been driven to one of the
 slaughter houses in this vincinity or
 to one Of the farms owned by butchers
 where cattle are kept just before
 slaughter. The man was inquiring
 for the live stock inspector for this
 district. It was too late at night to do anything about it and he was tO return to the sheriff's office next morning and search would be begun for the cows. He left q very elaborate description of them.
 The man was on hand early in the morning and Deputy Sheriff Adams set out with him. Late in the after noon the four. cows were found on r. T. Hurley's farm southwest of the city and as the man had suspected they were destined for early slaughter.
 Mir Adams about this time began to find out something else much more in- tereSting than the stolen cows He learned that the man who had insti- gated the hunt had been an inmate of the insane asylum for ten years and ten months. MT Adams thinks he ought to have been there for life. He was discharged as cured several years ago and ever since then he has been in the employ of MT. Hurley at one of his farms. His chief halucination is that he is the owner of the farm and all the stock on it but when he is kept away from this fantasy he seems as sane as the average man. The cows of whose loss he complained had been brought to the farm few days before and so they became 60 the custodian's mind his own property. MT Hurley had decided to move them to another place and that had been done without the knowledge of the custodian who When he discovered their absence as- sumed that they had been stolen and went to the authorities for relief

regretted, for the reason that it means
that a considerable number of set.

does it argue that the country is not
suitable for agriculture because there
has been one failure of crops But it
should not be forgotten, in passing
that North Dakota has some splendid

that in seeking homes, the fertile

MAKING A COAT.
Thirty nine Distinct Varieties of Work
by as Many Men.


According to the United States bu-
reau Of labor, the old saw ct takes
nine tailors to make a man. is filled
with misinformation, for in reality,
the bureau finds, it takes thirty-nine
men of different trades just to make
coat under the present system of shop
manufacture, for the day when one
tailor measured the customer, cut out
the cloth and, with his apprentices,
shaped 1t into finished and pressed
garment has practically passed To-
day all one tailor may do through his
entire life is to mark the place where
buttons are to be sewed on. Another
man never marks places for buttons.
His speciality is to mark buttonholes.
A third man spends the long day in
sewing on buttons, a fourth in max
ing buttonholes. Men who sew sleeves
do not make armholes. The armhole
men give place to shoulder shapers,
and these last do not touch collars.
which are distinct speciality. Even
the men who manipulate the tailor's
goose are divided into pressers Of
seams, edges, Innings, sleeves and coat
pressers. The basters stick to one dis
tinct speciality of basting. and sep
arate functionary, the basting puller,
undoes their work. Even the coat

when the coat is finished it represents
thirty nine distinct varieties of work

finally puts on the coat he is wearing

eight thumbs. not counting the digits

it and cut it nor the ink stained clerical
hands which kept book record of all
the processes. Probably from sheep

least 5000 fingers. New York Tribune.

MEMBER OF ASSOCIATED PRESS
H!* S;I5=

We have some interesting reports
of the intention of leading democrats
through the country to visit Mr.. Bryan
while he is in the east and convey to
him that while he is peerless leader
and entitled to great praise for his
sterling democracy, he is not avail
able as. presidential candidate and
that if he persists in his intention to
be the democrats candidate at the
coming election he will lead the par
ty to third defeat, but that if he
agrees to step aside he can be Sec
rotary of state or anything he wants
in case the democrats are victorious
and the real power behind the throne.
Possibly this situation is without a
precedent in the politics of the coun-
try-the man who has the largest
following in the party and who can
have the nomination for the presiden-
cy by asking for it., admitted by the
leaders of his own party to be a hope
less candidate. The New York Times
seeks to explain Mr.. Bryan's unwill-
ingness to get out of the limelight
by stating that he has grown rich out
of the publicity his candidacy has CIV
en- him and that as presidential
candidate, he is a drawing card even
if defeated, while as back number
he would be no longer the single
bright figure in the democratic firma-
ment This is putting Mr.. Bryans as
pirations and aims in rather an un-
enyiable light and we prefer to believe
Mr. Bryan obsessed of the belief that
he is destined to be president of the
United States and he is unwilling TO
deliver himself of the obsession by
voluntarily putting himself out of the
way.
