Do any of you believe in dreams :?
Whether you do or not, here is one
that the writer believes to be true, for
it came to him direct from the dream
er. 1t is in words and figures as fol
lows: "Last night l went to bed feel
ing pretty blue. Business hadn't been
good and | couldn't see anything for
the immediate future. / finally got to
sleep and dreamt that a cousin of mine
was standing talking to me and cheer
ing me up. Finally he said, when you
go home take down your Bible and
read the fifth verse of the third chapter
st. Luke I did so and it read Every
valley shall be filed and every noun
tain and hill shall be brought low, and
the crooked shall be made straight. ,
And,' continued my dreamer, "busi-
ness is picking up. | am cheering dp
and 1 recommend the verse to all who
are inclined to feel little gloomy"

The Biggest Vein Of Coal

The coal mine at Wilton had
the reputation of being the largest
mine in the west but according to
the Dogden News another will have
the honor: Henry Jameson made
an unusual find last week while
drilling a we'll on his farm 6 miles
southwest of here. At 225 feet
below the surface he encountered
a vein of coal 25 feet in thickness
and to the best of his knowledge,
of the very best quality. Mr.. Jane
son is not prepared to estimate the
extent of this coal bed, but in
point of depth it is ahead of any
coal find that has been made in this
western country, the great Wilton
mine measuring only IA feet in
depth, and said to be the greatest
of its kind in the world.

Farmer Arrested
For Beating Child
lanes Eirs Of BALDWIN Given Fifteen
Days and Ten Dollars For
cruelty to Children

James Eirs was arrested by the
state humane officer this week
and given a sentence of fifteen days
and ten dollars fine, as this was
the first offense.
The charges cite the most un-
believable instan ces of cruelty
and Mr.. Blake says he has witness
ses to prove that Eirs was in the
habit of beating his family on the
slightest provocation.
It seems Mrs. Eirs died a short
time ago while being treated in the
city leaving seven children whose
ages ranged from FIVE months to
fifteen years. Among instances
claimed in the specific charges is
one which claims that Eirs horse
whipped his eldest daughter until
she bled because dinner was a few
moments late. It is also alleged
that he was in the 6abit of beating
the smaller girls with a pitchfork.

Grown in This State

Judge w. 81. Winchester came
up from Bismarck Tuesday morn
ing to attend court. he brought
with him two boxes of large sweet
juicy Strawberries to show what
can be grown in North Dakota.
MIR. Winchester has raised his own
strawberries for the last five or six
years but this year they have been
more plentiful than ever before.
About twelve quarts are being
picked each day and it is thought
there will be about 500 quarts in
all. No other strawberry patch is
known of in Bismarck and it is
wondered why there is not since
those berries can be grown so
successfully.

Many Kind Words
The Bismarck. Tribune's sta

correspondent, who remained in
Washburn during the Bickford
trial, had the following published
in the Tribune: The Washburn
Commercial club has been striving
ali this time to vindicate Judge
Winchester, and the general opin-
ion in that the judge has been vim
dicated. When Winchester sent
the Bickford trial to Washburn
the cry went up from other towns
that wanted it, that Washburn
could not take care of the people.
The people have been taken care
of in way very pleasing to them
and will always have a kind re-
membrance of Washburn and her
hospitable people.
On the auto ride of twenty-five
miles given the visitors in the city
last Wednesday evening by the
Washburn commercial club, all
were greatly impressed by splen-
did crop prospects in this vicinity.
The fields are one immense carpet
of green, and the many we'll i'm
proved farms in this neighborhood
show that the good crops must be
the rule here and not the exception.
