Distress in North Dakota.

Mason City, July Isl. G. Parker.
an old resident OF this county whose
ADVENT here dates back to his sixteenth
year. returned yesterday from Turtle
Lake, n. D, and brought with him an
unhappy story OF crop failure blasted
hopes and ruined prospects. A vast
region in the western and central part
of that state Is depuded Of crops or
any sort Of vegetation because OF the
excessive dry weather and the farmers
who remain are staring starvation in
the face. Mr.. Parker thinks that if
help is not sent them before the win
ter is over, they Will perish from
cold and hunger.
A large number Of the farmers
and some townspeople, especially in
the little ha-nlets that have spring up,
are leaving the state as rapidly
as possible. Scores of wagons, in which
is piled the entire effects of the family
with horses hardly able to stand and
what cattle they can move, are start
ing for moister climate, leaving thei
claims and what Improvements they
have made and what was hoped would
be a home for them, for good. The
scenes according to Mr.. Parker beggar
description. He says that the best
crop Oh WtiSdt he saw in TIE country
would not yield over six bushels per
acre and that most Of it would not
reseed the ground and all Of it would
not make suitable hay If cut for that
purpose. Some of the farmers unable
to move their stock are turning them
loose TO shift Off themselves and leave
them behind.
To such straights has the country
been reduced that the banks have
stopped loaning money On land In this
section even at ~ per cent rate
which some have been offered. The
drouth which is the most disastrous
one the country has experienced in
dozen years will mean untold hardships
for countless farmers and their fam
lilies. MT. Parker states that many OF
the men who began farming there
staked their all on this years crop
hence what money they have invested
in their land Is lost as they are unable
to make payments and even II they
remain during this year will require
a couple of years hence to recover
Eastern North Dakota, Mr.. Parker
says is quite different and says that
the Red River valley has the best crop
in its history.

Rags saturated with kerosene we're

That it is the latter family some one

COLUMN

Some time ago / called atten
tion to Johnny Kilbane, the littlt
Ohio featherweight, who at thai
time was just forging ahead in his
class. predicted that it wouldn't
be long ere this boy attracted at.
tention all over the land by his
clever fighting.
My prediction has been verified.
Kilbane today, throughout the
east, is credited with being one OF
the best 120-pound boys that ever
pulled on a padded glove.
Kilbane in Boston fought and
whipped Bobby Tickle and another
fighter the same night without
leaving the ring, and the Boston
fight critics were loud in their
praise of the youngster.
You will hear more of Kilbane
ere he leaves the east. He I'M
will appear in New

the big fight clubs, and they

In Gotham, so the verdict upon
Kilbane will be worth looking for

bound to reach the top in his class.
He isn't a slugger, but fast,
clever, two-handed
fighter. He has pretty fair kick
In both hands and wins his fights
by simply playing circles around
an opponent instead of rocking
them to sleep.

For Big Jeff was talking. Per-

rectly from the Pacific. Maybe it
was the big, broad stiffness of the
mountains, or the drowsy music of
the falls; but whatever it was, aft
er four days of moody silence, four
days of more than his traditional
crouch, Jeff was chatting cheer
fully, with the representative of
the Times. He was seated on the
edge of the porch of his pretty lit.
