Famous Rifle Goes to West Poir.


In appreciation of the whole souled
loyalty and generous fellowship shown
him by the rank and file of the army.
and in particular the enthusiastic re-
ception given him every season by the
West Point Cadets, Col w. F. Cody
buffalo BID will offer the military
academy one Of the most valued prizes
1t has ever received. Col Cody plans
to present his famous rifle to the Ca.
diets as perpetual trophy for mark
manship.
The rife in question was presented
TO Buffalo Bill a year ago by the Win
chester Repeating Arms Co., and Is an
exact duplicate Of the rife made for ex-
President Theodore Roosevelt and car
ried by him all through his hunting
expedition. It is a very fancy affair.
gold and silver plated, smartly en-
graVed with name plate encrusted
in jewels. The only condition attached
to the gift is that it forever remains
at West Point, the cadet making the
highest score during each year will
have the distinction of having his name
engraved beneath that of TIE greatest
scout America has ever L.own-Buf-
falo Bill.
Millions Of people have witnessed
Buffalo Bills marvellous shooting with
this same rife, but he has only a few
more shots to fire-with Col. Cody's
visit to this city comes an announce
71ent of. his positive retirement from
arenic work-it is Buffalo Bills final
farewell to a nation which has hero
worshipped him this quarter of a CEN
fury past. And as a fitting tribute to
the keen appreciation he holds of his
million friends Col. Cody has gathered
about him this season a most pleasing
entertainment, a congeaial combina-
ton Of stars from two hemisphere
the Wild West and the Far. East-the
latter being the noteworthy exhibit
ton Of Major Gordon w. Lille paw
nee BID, Cody's business partner, and
in whose caretake the great combined

CURRENCY ASSOCIATION,

commenting On the recently organ
tied currency association to be pre-
pared for any financial emergency that
may arise-The New York Journal of
Commerce says:
In response to the suggestion, virtu-
ally amounting to plea, of Secretary
MacVeagh twenty seven of the national
banks of this city have joined in form
ing national currency association. 1t
seems to have been considered impor-
Itant that the banks of New York
should take the lead in this precau-
ttionary movement. No doubt the ac-
ton was taken in part out of compla-
cency to the wishes of the treasury de-
partment, which it would hardly be
Ipolitic to disregard, and partly in the
hope of producing a reassuring effect.
The only serious question is whether ii
Is more likely to have that effect than
to awaken apprehension that something
like an emergency is contemplated
There is no ground for the latter and
any such feeling will probably soon
pass away, IL It exists. There is nc
reason to suppose that any additional
circulating notes will be issued by the
association on the terms provided by
the law OF May, 1908, for. with tax
ranging from to 10 per cent accord
ing TO the time they were in circulation

much more serious emergency" than
the demand for crop-moving funds, and
nOthing more serious Is to be looked

DAIhYING IN N. o.

AS a result Of the crop conditions in
North Dakota the farmers of the state
are in a receptive mood for any sug-
gestions regarding dairying. Now is
the time for the dairy advocates to do
a little promoting.
1t is doubly unfortunate-just at this
time and with the present conditions
that the North Dakota Agricultural
college is not in a position to give
proper courses in that important
branch. The last legislature passed an
appropriation for a dairy building, but
Governor Burke-in his wisdom, power
and greatness-vetoed it. AS a result
one Of the most important branches of
instruction is closed to the youth of
the state.
The present building in which the
cattle at the A. c. are housed. is an
old shack that has done time since the
college was started. 1t is a dilapidated,
unsanitary place, unfit for occupancy
by the cattle-and with no provisions
of any nature for class room, labora-
tory or experimental work Hundreds
of farmers and dairymen over the state
have cattle barns immeasureably supe-
Tior.
In connection with the creamery in
terests of the state there is no in
dustry mora potent in possibilities than
dairying in North Dakota. 1t should be
promoted and encouraged in every pos
sible manner. The boys of the state
should be given an opportunity to re-
ceive instruction in this important
work-to learn to handle the cattle sci
entifcally-to feed and milk them-to
care for the milk in a sanitary way
and the use Of all the late appliances
in this connection.
1t is most unfortunate that the sons
of the North Dakota farmers are barred
from their just rights in this manner
just because OF the antagonisms of the
man who happened to be in the states
executive chair--and whose sympathies
are not and have never been with the
farmers-except every two years just
before election-when he wants their
votes.

howIs tha Emnrassa

McClure's: On one of his visits to
Paris, Nicholas ii. was left alone for
a moment in his carriage. The car
was. delighted at the feeling of free
dom and ease. Looking out of the win
dow with all the zest of a schoolboy
playing truant, he saw before him one
of those picturesque street arabs who
seem to sprout between the paving
stones of Paris. This particular speci-
men, seated against the ratings, with
his nose in the air, was whistling the
refrain of the Russian national hymn.
Suddenly their eyes met The street
boy sprang to his feet--he had never
seen the emperor, but he had seen his
photograph, and the likeness was strik-
ing.
Suppose it is Nicholas?" he said to
himself, greatly puzzled.
He resolved to make sure without
delay. Walking up to within a yard
of the carriage, and bobbing his head.
he shouted in a hoarse voice to the an
known foreigner:
"Hows the empress?'
Picture his stupefaction--for in fact.
he thought that it was only good joke
when the stranger replied witch q
smile:
Thank you, the empress is very well.
and, Is delighted with her journey
The boy lost his tongue. He stared
at the speaker in dismay, and then,
raising his cap, stalked away, slowly,
very slowly. to mark his dignity.
Nicholas II. afterward often amused
himself by scandalizing the formal sci
around him with the story OF this pri-
waite interview with a true Partisan.

NO FORFEITURE
Certificate Holders In the Northwest
ern Mutual Investment Co., Do
Not Face Possible Loss BY
Lapse.

One strong feature of the limited
term certificates issued by the North
western Mutual Investment Co., of
Fargo is the fact that 10 holder of
one of these popular investment GER
tificates faces possible loss by 'lapse''
or forfeiture during the term which
the certificate is to run; a feature that
is exclusive with this company.
When man buys certificate run
ming 10, 10 or 20 years this problem
presents itself; shall be able to meet
the payments throughout the term Sc
lected. The ordinary visicitudes of
business are easily met. What about
the extraordinary occurrences which no
one can forsee?
The certificates Of the Northwestern
Mutual Investment Co. meet this prop
osition fairly and squareJy; if the GER
tifcate holder cannot pay his previous
payments are not forfeited uro
rata paid up certificate is issued COW
ering payments made; securing the
certificate holder against loss by
lapse. This is only one of the many
attractive features Incorporated in the
certificates of this company, features
that others do not have Write for

There was only one thing lacking to

that was inmates. Kansas City, Kas..

guard of drunkard's wives. The city
possessed no men patriotic and public
minded enough to become the drunken
husbands Of their wives-in order that
their spouses might fit nicely into the

who could drive their husbands to

sacrifice themselves by going to the
Home for D"unkards' Wives.

vanishing.
