full, a. many Of the rifles had become
overheated, others useless, and the
ammunition was nearly exhausted.
Then, to add to the general joy, the
distant sound Of a howitzer was heard,
and Major Smith, from the fort, with
100 men, was seen in the distance, and
a shell burst In the midst Of the In
dams as another puzzle in the use Of
arms. The principal effort the Indians
made then was to carry of their
wounded, which they eventually sue
ceeded In doing after making a stand
for awhile against Smiths command,
when, disheartened and d~ismayed,
they sullenly retreated. Captain Pow
ell in his report says that another at
tack would have been successful, ow-
ing to the exhausted condition Of
arms, ammunition and men. The In
dams had a splendid opportunity in
the open to check Smiths command,
but, believing In the Great Spirits an
ger and that there was bad Medi-
cine' in the ne:ghborhood, they
thought 1t best to retire from the in
huence Of the Evil Spirit" The Indi-
ans lost 1.137 men.

Housekeeping In Papua.

European housekeeping in Papua is
charmingly simple. Everything arriv-
ed in a tin, for the most part ready for
us. Meat, milk, butter, vegetables-all
stood in tins in neat rows in the store
room. A diet of timed stuffs grew
rather monotonous at times, but we
were able occasionally to vary it.
Sometimes a man would arrive with q
live turtle, which he would sell for two
sticks Of tobacco, costing threepence.
The wretched turtle would be killed
and cut up, but would still insist on
quivering in a most realistic manner
even when placed on the fire to cook.
Then, too, If the season was a good
one, the kitchen would be found lined
with joints Of wallabies. and it would
be hard to know what to do with so
much fresh meat.-Wide World Maya

Wonderful Wireless System
 Prepared tor Long-Dstance

NEW YORK, July 13.--Some four
 thousand rect of copper wire forming the attenna for the Radio Telephone company, was strung from the fftieth
 story of the Metropolitan Life build.
 ing recently and within a short time, the newest de Forest system of wireless telephony and telegraphy will be open
 ed commercially as a long distance fac tor in wireless communication between the principal cities on the Atlantic coast The first message will be sent between the Metropolitan tower station and the highest point in Philadelphia which has been secured for the central station in the Quaker city. The install lation of the station in the Metropoli- tan Life tower is the first definite step in the widely heralded talk-via. wire. less, New York to Paris.
 The station on the Metropolitan tow CT is on the fiftieth floor, 700 feet above the sidewalk and the antenna extends, umbrella shaped, to the Fourth Avenuo roof of the building, from which the leading wires pass into the office of the company on the ninth floor. The work of erecting the antenna, which is the largest in the world except the one con. trolled by the same company on tho Eiffel tower in Paris, was begun in storm, when two wires were sent aloft during the progress of the dis turbed clements.
 While the workmcn were busy mak ing fast these two wires, and the wind was whistling it's most strident tune, an interesting experiment was made from the top of the swaying campanile that showed the marvellous cutting up of the air currents in the vicinity of the apex of the tall tower. X score of toy balloons were liberated and at once were borne away to leeward with the speed of so many frightened gulls. For probably a hundred yards they re- mained together, after which one after another became separated, halted in flight, circled for moment around the antenna wires and then, apparently in the teeth of the fifty mile gale, driftcG back to the tower, round which they were driven like so many swallows, for nearly half an hour.

Bowel Complaint in Children

When six months old the little daugh. ter of E. N. Dewey, a well known mer. chant of Agnesville, Va, had an attack of cholera infantum. Chamberlain s Colc, Cholera, and Diarrhoea Remedy was given and effected complete cure. This remedy has proven, very successful in cases of bowel complaint in children and when given according to the plain printed directions can be relied upon with perfect confidence. When reduced with water and sweetened it is pleasant to take, which is of great importance when medicine must be given to young children. For sale by all drug. gists.

have been made with induction tele- phones without success at any distance
 beyond possibly one mile, and to at. tain even this result with an induction telephone was difficult, unreliable, and entaiied the use of cumbersome appar- atus. Dr. de Forest, catching the dis. tinctive hum of the antenna wires. found the solution and he at once be- gan experimenting on the development of intelligible sound through the waves of ether. The principle he already knew, but to evolve practical apparatus from the wealth of theoretical knowledge has been the work of many months in his laboratory, assisted by experts of known standing on both sides of the Western ocean,

one by one they were caught in an eddy which bore them far away from the dis
 turbed air currents and drifted down the wind to become lost in the smother to leeward
 Meanwhile the lightning played around the tower and the rain fell in torrents, but the linemen continued to labor despite the frequent flashes of light, until the wires were secured and the swaying antenna was in place.
 The story of wireless is like page from a fairy tale. Scarcely more than decade has drifted into history since wireless telegraphy was given to waiting world. During that period many scientists have devoted their lives to the work of developing the art of wireless. That little has been ac- eomplished by the majority of these workers is a patent fact Indeed, with the exception of pr. Lee de Forest and a few co workers in his laboratory, ab- solutely nothing of real value has been evolved. Dr. de Forest has invented N'i'itoo NSiCpiObCS hduiD tnt Stl- enlist calls it, and within the short space of two years it has become commercial system ou the Great Lakes as we'll as a factor in the navies of three great nations.
 Lieutenants Colin and Jeaunce of the French navy, working in conjunction with Dr. de Forest in the development of Radio telephony have reported mos satisfactory results, and have talked distance of one hundred miles, be- tween the cruiser Condo and the arse nal at Toulon.
 Ultimate success in wireless tele phony by the radio system is assured by the results already obtained. These results are not mere chance, but i.e effects from causes that are known to the veriest tyro in the field of wireless science. The discovery was made some two years ago that wireless tale- graph message was accompanied under certain conditions by peculiar yet dis tinctive buzzing sound. There had been theories a-plenty before this time, many of which had been worked ou, mathematically by Dr. de Forest, John Stone and others. Many experiments

DR.. ELIOT'S BOOK LIST.

Bible and Shakespeare Omitted al
Publishers Suggestion, He Says.
President Emeritus Charles W. Eliot
of Harvard recently said of his five
foot library Of best books that he was
paid by firm Of New York publishers
for picking out the list. Every Har-
ward graduate was surprised after the
commencement the other day to re-
ceive an announcement from the New
York publishers of the issuance Of the
books in Harvard crimson" binding.
DR.. Eliot when seen said:
1.-The list Of books as mentioned Is
very incomplete. l expect when the
titles. | will! try to confine the list to
sixty books. When the publishers ask
ed me to select the books for a prop
osition of this kind l was glad to do
it, because | felt If my name as COM
piler of the list induced people to read
the books a great educational work
would have been done. My position
in this matter is thoroughly under
stood by all who know me.
Il do not consider that my course
in acting as editor could be considered
as lending my name or what prestige
I might have for advertising purposes,
as has been insinuated. 1t is a strict
business proposition, and naturally the
publisher will advertise largely.
1.-THE Bible and Shakespeare were
omitted from the list at the suggestion
of the publisher. The reason, Of
course, is that most people have read
the Bible and Shakespeare. The list
was originally intended to be fifty
book list Now, any good edition of
Shakespeare would take five volumes,
the Bible would take three volumes,
and there would be eight gone out OF
the fifty."

they were glad to get the bug diet.
Junette tried them first on his own

The ducks went through the patch
like neigbborhood scandal After
the performance Junette shut up his

not acquire a taste for other diet.
The ducks are in great demand on

Farmers are glad to pay $3.50 per

Minot, N. D., July 22.-Minot's as
sessed valuation, according to the
city board of equalization, is $780,
31S. The board completed its work
last week and the city auditor has
completed the books and turned the
same over to the county auditor,
where they will go through the hands
of the county board before final pass
age by the state board. The final
figures show a raise of s23,668 by the
city board over the figures returned
by the city assessor. This valuation
is independent of the territory COM
prised in Harrison township or North
Minot, and it is very probable that
the courts will decide that this tehhi-
tory has been annexed to the city and
that the taxes for the present year
will be paid into the city treasury.
