its accompanying amelioraton of industrial and

Consular positions do not pay large sums of
money, but the life is in many respects an at
tractive one and there are always many ap-
plicants for any vacancies which may exist.
1t is virtually necessity that the person who
desires place in the consular service shall be
able to speak at least two modern languages;
that is, one in addition to English. While the
examinations not supposed to be hard some
men who have been through college with credit
in their studies have failed to answer properly
enough of the questions put to them to give
them hold on the service.
At times the United States consuls have
dangers to encounter. 1t was exceedingly un-
pleasant in Spain for some of Uncle Sans
representatives during the months just prior
to the beginning of actual hostilities at Manila
bay. In Chill and in Turkey within compare

The official document then tells us in the
words of its contributor how France saved
by the adoption of the idea of Bremontier, one
of the sons of the seemingly doomed region.
The seeds of the pine, the pin maritime of
the French, were gathered and sprouted care
fully and the young trees planted in
places where the moving sands did not over
whem them until their tough roots had taken
firm hold their wiry leaves which loved the
briny spume, would offer no resistance to the
wind and, falling about their roots, would give
shelter and nutriment until forest grew which
would hold the sands in check and the
threatened interior from desolation.'
II Napoleon who seized upon the idea
of Bremontier His vision penetrated the
centuries and he saw the march of the deadly
dunes arrested and the desert they had created
made to blossom like the rose"
The consul tells us that after a century has
passed the statue of Bremontier looks down
one of the great burrows which lie between the
dunes he showed how to conquer To-
day, as we are told "the dark squad
rons of the pin maritime posted

fields rest secure. The gray dunes which were
sweeping the land have become serried

A Brother OF Al and SEVERN Mikal.
son, OF hazelton, Loses His
Life ia Rainy Lake.

The following account of the
death Of Martin Mikalson. brother
of two of Emmons county's Well
known and respected citizens. is ia
ken from last week Hazelton Re-
publican
The Mlkalson brothers. Of this
place. received the sorrowful mes
sage Monday. from RAINY Lake,
Minnesota. announcing that their
brother Martin had been accidental
ly drowned last Friday near that
place.
As near as we can get particu-
lars at this time, it seems that Mar
tin was out with fishing party
and he and a friend had gone out
into the lake with canoes To fish. AS
might came on they did not return
to camp, or even the day following.
This alarmed the other members Of
the party and threw them intoa high
pitch of excitement. So an investi-
CATION was at once made, with the
result that the two canoes We're
found frozen in the ice. with no oc-
cupants. Further investigation dis
closed the fact that there We're foot
prints of the two unfortunate men
in the snow on the ice. which We're
traced for some distance and then
Disappeared and it is the suppose
ton that Martin and his friend had
walked ON some weak ice and gone
under, with the result above stated.
"Al Mikalson, who had been in
Bismarck the last couple of weeks,
departed Monday for the scene Of
the unfortunate affair. and to assist
in the rescue of the body Of his
brother.
Martin Mikalson was fairly we'll
known in Hazelton. where he always
bore good reputation and had hosts
of friends. who are panied to learn
of his untimely death.
To the Mikalson brothers and
other relatives we extend deepest
sympathy in this their hour of sor-
row.

the Same, fitting Tits Daughter

Miss Anna Nelson. young girl
residing near Glencoe, was taken to
Bismarck last Saturday, suffering
from wound accidentally inflicted
by shotgun in the hands of her

as told by an eyewitness. is that the
hired man was cleaning the gun
when the girls father decided that
the hired man did not thoroughly
understand the mechanism of the

some unaccountable manner the gun
was discharged, the shot entering
the girls right leg between the knee
and the thigh A large hole was
made in the leg and part of the
bone was shot away.
The girl was taken to the Bis

WHITE GOWNS POPULAR.

A growing inclination to wear
white is apparent. White was once
regarded as the special privilege of
youth. Now, with a broader knowl-
edge of the values of colors and a
better realization of the Importance
of surroundings, one INDUCES ones
natural tastes. Perhaps the i7fuence
of the period under which fashion is
passing has something to do with this,
for the women who amused them
selves at Triannon used white freely
and without stint.
Be that as it may, white gowns
and white generally, will be more
worn this coming season that ever.
White cloth in variety of makes,
satin, charmeuse, the cashmere and
white scribe, in an infinite variety of
quality and thickness, will come in
for much attention from artists in
dress.
AS to the lingerie gown, its import
ance in the wardrobe cannot be ques-
toned 1t is one of the most useful
things to have, and whether worn
outside or indoors permits so much
individual taste and charm in con-
trast that is is quite Indispensable
