Lamp" May Come Back.

Williston State: Weeks ago we
predicted. it. Herb Lampman, as
brilliant a writer as North Dakota
could claim, went to a place In the
west called Asbestos and said that he
WOULD just grow fruit and fish through
the rest Of the years and duit the
newspaper business for all time. We
didn't believe him. We gave him
credit for full sincerity. We knew
what he wanted to do. But there was
no smell of ink around the barnyard,
no hell-box in the vicinity of the corn
crib and the insects that went into
his apple orchard were nothing like
type lice. And we knew that he would
get lonesome and come back into the
fold where he was real ornament of
the 70 point variety. And he is COM
ing. He writes to us that he is going
to come back to the land that God
loves, that he Will one Of these days

viii LET jury Fly Damages.

Jamestown, N. 3D., Dec. S.-~-Attorney
General Miller was in the city yester-
day, in consultation with the local
trustees of the State Hospital for the
Insane. Messrs. Taber and Fried, in
regard to the right OF way across a
portion of the asylum land, wanted by
the Midland Continental road. The
railroad at first desired Eve or six acres
and a river crossing, for an entrance
into jamestown. The company now
desires more land from the asylum
grounds, and wanted twenty 1.-TWO acres
part Of which is said to include a val
liable gravel pit. 1t was agreed be-
tween the trustees and the attorney
general that the only proper and legal
procedure to take in this matter was
to have the land wanted condemned
by jury in due process OF law and
such a procedure viii be taken.

.LANSFORD TOWN
SETTING PACE
GAS WELLS DRILLED AND A PIPE
LINE LAID IN LESS THAN
THREE MONTHS.

Lansford, N. D., Dec. S.--Business men
Of this city last fall formed q stock
company, each putting in $1,000, to be
used in developing the gas field in
this vicinity. They hired drillers and
struck mammoth gas pool, In four
days they had the "gasser'' under con-
troll. and had sent for experts to ex-
anime the field and test the well and
gas.
The gas was found to be the best
kind of marsh gas and the well tested
~ pounds pressure to the square inch.
The business men then ordered cas-
ing for another well and pipe for d
line into the city from the well six
miles from the city. The last of the
pipe arrived last week and Saturday
night the city was connected with the
gas we'll on the Bales farm.
While waiting for the pipe a grader
was pressed into service and the
trenches for the pipe were scraped out.
AS fast as the pipe arrived 1t was
hauled along the trenches and distrib-
uted and gangs went to work laying IT..
Some of the pipe came from Mime.
apolis. some from Fargo and some from
IAlS AA4ilS dt GAtISDuTS. CUldner uILlf1GS
and castings are coming by express, as
such little thing as the switchmen's
strike will not deter these hustlers in
getting the gas into the homes and
stores OF the city.
Some of the fittings are yet to come,
but they are on the way and willing
hands are waiting for them. There has
been no delay. Automobiles hauled the
men to and from their work and hur-
ry was the watchword.
Stoves and lighting fixtures are on
the way and by the time the company
gets the pressure reducer in place the
fixtures will be here and will soon be
placed in position by plumbers who
are now piping the houses and stores.
Lansford will be heated and lighted
by natural gas this winter, in spite OF
the fact that old gas men said the
thing could not be done One company
operating in the Mouse River loop
took over two years in getting the gas
installed in its town.

professor had showed the names he
had carefully penciled on the back of
an envelope.
Why prolong the agony?
A moment after the wagers had been

a busness-like clicking. The operator

Professor was in the elevator and
speeding towards the street. Once on
the sidewalk, Danny rushed his fat
friend down Michigan and over across
Jackson boulevard to the Western
Union building. There he almost

showed the astonished German into an
other elevator. AT the second floor of
the building man in shirt sleeves,
with pencil resting behind his ear in
business fashion, got into the same
car. The shirt-sleeved and hatless per-
son got off the car at a top floor, where
Danny and the professor also left it.
With a warning gesture, the shirt
sleeved and hatless one motioned the
other two to distant corner of the
hail. There he was introduced to the
professor by Danny as an old friend
who had charge of the racing wires
over which the odds and results on all
races were transmitted to the pool
rooms throughout the middle west.
"Is it all right?" whispered the
breathless Danny.
'As right as compass. Does your
friend understand that I'm to get half
of the winnings?"
mo, haven't had time to explain to
him yet l know he's all right,
though"
The fiattered professor beamed at
WOluo VI lhuOTSt-
ment, and then 1t was explained to
him that Mr. Brown, the Western
Union race wire manager, could with
hold the result of each race after it
came in until he had telephoned Danny
and given him time to get down good
bet in the pool room before they knew
that the race was off. Danny promised
to explain matters more fully to the be-
! fuddled professor ON their way to the
pool room. AS soon as they had taken
leave of the fictitious Manager Brown,
the latter walked downstairs to the
second floor. where he had left a boy
holding his hat and coat, and donning
these he was out and away from the
building five. minutes behind Danny
and the professor.
And now." said Danny to the by
this time thoroughly bewildered Herr
Oberman, when they had reached a
quiet little saloon on side street. 'Ill
