and Mrs. Frank e. Dahlgren and Mr..
and Mrs. Nels Malm left last Friday
in two cars for Cheyenne, N. D.,
about 225 miles from here, and reach

a fine and valuable property. Mr..
Hjerpe has been in poor health since
last winter, yet he was cheerful and
optimistic as ever and seemed to en-.

FINNISH SETTLERS COMING.

j T. w. Arkkola, of the land depart
ment of the Rock island road, who it
will be remembered was here several
weeks ago seeking to interest the pro-
motors Of Finnish colony in this sec
tion, is here again in company with
VIM. Talkkari, Rev. Keranen and
John Asiala, all of Eveleth. They are
all favorably impressed with the coun-
try and the chances look good for
their buying a big tract of the Rock
Islands land as nucleus for the pro
posed colony. Otto Palo, of Butte,
Montana, also arrived here yesterday
to confer with Mr.. Arkkola on the
same proposition. If this deal goes
through it means the advent into this
part of the country of number of de-
sirable settlers and the sale and de-
velopment Of not only the Rock 1s-
lands lands, but also of many pieces
of private land now unused. Let the
good work go on.-Middle River Pio-

WHAT'S THE USE BEING HARD UP
G. L. Austin Returns From Motor Trip
to Warren and Viking.

Geo. l.. Austin, who buys butter,
eggs and poultry for a big Spokane
concern for shipment in Car lots, re-
turned last evening from a 100 mile
trip in his auto, accompanied by Mrs.
Austin, going first to Warren and lat
er to Viking and other points. He
states that it rained harder up mort h
than here, and returning last evening
he found water standing between War
ren and Angus.
Speaking of the condition of the far
mers, he said: "What's the use of a
farmer being hard up? On my trip I
ran across one farmer who had 5000
bushels of wheat stored in an eleva-
tor, 300 tons of hay from which he
will net $4,000, and this fall has made
81 500 profit in buying and selling
stock. This is $1,000 for his sum-
mer's work. Where can they boast of
greater opportunities for the live far
er?"-Crookston Times.

PRICE OF WHEAT TAKES TUMBLE
December Option Drops Many Points
on Receipt Of Russian Report.

Foods of wheat, many poods,
smashed the price today when a num-
Der of rich farmers of the northwest
who have persistently been holding
long December wheat, threw it on the
market. Russia has raised 925,OOO,-
600 poods, according to cables from
that country. An average Russian
wheat crop is about S66,000,OOO pools.
A pood is little more than thirty-six
pounds. Russia is a big shipper,
sends wheat to the importing coun-
tries of western Europe, and is one of
the great competitors of the United
States. .,.. &-.
When the crop news from Mime
sofa and North and South Dakota was
at it's worst last summer, prices of
wheat went bounding upward in Min
neapolis. Recently December wheat
was still selling at $1.13 and many
traders expected that it would go to
$1.25 or higher. Today it sold down
to $1.05 5-s.
1t is gossip on the trading floor of
the Chamber of Commerce that farm
ers of the wealthy class have been
carrying 100000 bushels of Decem-
ber wheat long in Minneapolis. They
have held it against continued sagging
of the price.
Today the Russian report was very
weakening and in the selling out that
followed it was said that nearly a mil
lion bushels of the farmers long
wheat was thrown over.-Minneapoli

the proper form and scope of the pro-
posed relief measure, in order that it
may be perfected and be in shape for

LOST LIVES IN FOREST FIRES

Among those who lost their lives in
the forest fires on our northern border
were two brothers, Nels and Martin
Klakeg, of Oslo, and John Alison, Of
Vega. MIR. Alison owns a farm in
northern Vega, but year or so ago
he rented out his farm and left for the
timber country. He was a single
man and we have not learned whether
he had any relatives in this part of
the country. The Julius Brattin IA
mily who was among the dead, never
lived nour county, but came from
somewhere around Bemidji.
Later: We have learned that the
mother and a brother of Mr.. Alison
are living in Norway.

AVIATOR DROPS At THE white
+, HOUSE DOOR.
Makes an Aerial Flight
Across Washington, circIing the
Capitol Dome on way.

In q narrow street upon a selected
spot, after an aerial fight of more
than six miles across the city, Claude
Grahame-W White, the English aviator,
today dropped his aeroplane at the
side door of the White House. The
fight occupied only 10 minutes.
On the way thither, at a height of
nearly 500 feet, he circled the dome
of the capitol and passed the lofty
Washington monument level with the
apex.
He landed between the great build
ingt of the state, war and navy depart
ments and the low structure of the
executive Offices in a space where the
slightest deviation from his course
would have impaled him upon the
spikes 5of the iron fence around the
White House grounds at his right or
smashed him against the granite wall
at his left.
The airship struck the asphalt
paved street squarely in the middle
and rolled 200 feet fartherr up the
stone and iron-hedged lane in a
straight line. ~r
President Taft was mot at home

was there to grasp the hand of the
daring aviator and to offer congratu-
lations. ..

BATTLE HYMN OF THE REPUBLIC

Notwithstanding that Julia Ward
Howe has written and spoken great
deal that has had great influence
in her time, yet even her own coun-
trymen associate her name almost
wholly with one poem, ''The Battle
Hymn Of the Republic" a poem
struck off at white heat early in the
Civil War, when in camps about
Washington, Mrs. Howe was thrilled
by the marching of thousands of gal
liant young soldiers to the martial air
of "John Browns Body The regi-
ments caught up with enthusiasm the
new words which she set to the. fami-
liar tune; and the Battle Hymn
was sung in camp and field, from
Maine to the Gulf of Mexico. The
inspired poem became the Marseil-
laise of the Unconditional Yankee, and
will also be beautiful monument to
the memory Of the famous author,
whose death occurred at her summer
home at Middleton, R. T., on Monday,
Oct. II, 1910, in her 91st year,
Mine eyes have seen the glory of the
coming Of the Lord;
He is trampling out the vintage where
the grapes OF wrath are stored;
He hath loosed the fateful lightning
of His terrible swift sword,
His truth is marching on.
Chorus
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.
I have seen him in the watchfires OF
a hundred circling camps;
They have builded Him an altar in
the evening dews and damps;
i can read His righteous sentence by
the dim and flaring lamps,
EIis day is marching on. ..~>r..~.~ -
I have read a fiery gospel, writ in
L FURNISHED rows of steel;
"As We deal with my contemners, sc
with you my grace shall deal;
Let the Hero born of woman, crush
the serpent with his heel"
Since God is marching on. q,
He has sounded forth the trumpet
that shall never call retreat;
He is sitting out the hearts OF men
before His Judgment seat; j.
Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer Him!
be jubilant, my feet!
Our God is marching on.
In the beauty Of the lilies, Christ was
born across the sea,
With a glory in His bosom that trans
figures you and me;
AS He died to make men holy, let III
die to make men free.
While God is marching on.

c. S. DALQUIST OF
BAUDETTE HERE.

G. S. Dalquist, postmaster at Bau-
dette and his wife and their little ba-
by girl, arrived last Saturday morn
ing to spend a few days at the home
of Mr.. Dalquist's parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. P. Dalquist, of this city, in order
to rest up and get over the effects Of
the terrible fire, which burned their
town and their home and everything
they had in the shape of personal
property and also gave. them. a. close
call for their lives. Mr.. and Mrs.
Dalquist were in the post office when
the fire whistle sounded, but as their
little girl had been left at home in the
care of Mrs. Dalquist's sister, they
could not think Of escaping to the de-
pot as most of the other people were
doing. but ran to the house about
quarter of a mile from the post Office
in an opposite direction from the de-
pot. When they got to the house
they found it locked, but bursting op.
en- the door they rushed in to satisfy
themselves that no one was there and
to catch their breath for a moment.
The fire was now upon them, sparks
and fire brands flying in the air and
huge tongues of fire leaping sky high
All they could do now was to run to
the river about block away and
Jump into the water. No sooner had
they gotten there than another fami-
ly came to the river bank, and with
them a woman sick with typhoid. Mr..
Dalquist assisted them down the bank
and into the water and for several
hours while the town was burning, he
had to look after his own wife and al
so the sick woman, who was too weak
to keep her head above water. Wet
blankets or articles of clothing were
kept over their heads to exclude the
terrible heat and smoke, but Mr.. Dali
quist while protecting the others fail
ed to look after himself properly, and
suffered greatly from inhaling smoke
and heated gases with which the air
was charged and from exposure. When
the fire subsided they left the river
and sought shelter in the only house
left standing in the town. Not until
in the afternoon of the next day af-.
ter the fire did they learn that their
little girl and Mrs. DalQuist's sister
had escaped to Rainy river on the
train and were safe, and not until the
second day were they able to find the
little one. Mr.. Dalquist found him
self in very bad condition after the
fire and unable to go to work. One
reason why he came here was to get
medical assistance. Though far
from well, he and family left yester-
day for Baudette to establish their
home there again and do their share
toward upbuilding the town.

drinks very great deal. Indeed, it

It never meant to leave off. But the
fact is that II is not only satisfying
its thirst. but is filing up It's cistern

in IT'S stomach are filed with the water,
and rs soon as each is quite full 1t Is
tightly closed. Then when the animal
becomes thirsty few hours later all
that it has to do is to open one Of
the cells and allow the water to flow
out Next day 1t opens one or two
more cells. and so 1t goes on day after
day until the whole supply is ex-
