WANT WILLIAMS
COUNTY AT EXPO
FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS WILL GO TO
COUNTY MAKING THE BEST
GENERAL EXHIBIT

Attention has been called by the
publicity department of the In
dustrlal Exposition at Bismarck Of
the lack Of intrest in the exposi-
ton by the northwestern counties
in the state.
Commissioner w. G. Gilbreatb,
in behalf of the state, has offered
a prize Of $500 for the county
making the best general exhibit,
While this prize is no small item
in itself, the advertising that would
come to the county carrying off
the honors of the exposition.
The railroads of the state are
taking much interest in the sue
cess of the exhibitand have agreed
to carry all premiums and exhibits.
Eastern manufacturers are taking
advantage of this and are hurrying
to make arrangements for displays.
The matter will be taken up at the
Commercial Club and doubtless
progressive farmers all over the
county will be only too willing to
make heroic efforts to bring the

Helps Some

The crop conditions during the
week have made but little improve
ment. Under present conditions
half crop of wheat and oats upon
the general average can scarcely
be expected. The condition of the
flax crop is more fattering and
bids fair of making an average
yield. .-Epping Bulletin.

SPORTING EDITOR OF MM0r OPTIC
SEES D0uBLE-NOr TOO LATE
TO MEND

Under the date Of July Is the
Minot Optic, a paper published in
the village to the east has the fol
lowing:
Does the Williston ball team fear
the Mighty Magicians, or are they
simply playing for time with the hope
that the Minot team will disband and
thus give them an opportunity to
claim the championship Of this Sec
tion without tussle.
The management of the Minot K.
C.'s has been making every effort to
get the Williams county boys to come
here for series, but thus far his work
has gone for naught and the silence
from the "City of Opportunity is
thick enough to cut with hoe. There
are some who assert that the weather
out Missouri river way has been q
trifie frigid and that the aggregation
from Judge Fisk's district have cold
feet. The time for Williston to speak
is now, or they should forever hold
their peace.
Saturday evening and Sunday after
noon, j. Pluvius permitting. the Bow
bells and Minot teams will again
clash, and as both teams have won
the same number of games the con-
tests promise to be pretty indeed.
The below letter from Manager
Coulan of the Mighty Magicians''
to Manager Buhler tells its own
story:
Manager Buhler,
Williston, N. D.
Dear Sir:
4 Will be impossible for us to arrange
any dates with your team until Aug.
as we have all dates taken until that
time. But think that during the land
opening here from the 14th on that
baseball ought to draw some crowds.
IT you are interested in arranging
dates that far ahead we could have
you come here and play . series and
we could then give you q return serief
| pn your own grounds. AS the boys
6Sre are all working out atthe present
it is hard for them to get away here
than Sundays and it would hardly
pay to 60 out there for one game.
Will be glad to talk business with
you any time after the 10th of August
If you are so disposed, as We will play
here until September lst.
Yours truly,
S. T. Coulan.
The facts in the case is Manager
Buhler has done about everything
on earth to get the Minot bunch
to come to the Williston lot or let
the Orioles take a rap at the Ma
gicians in their own village.

Eiftv-Eight Below Zero.

A reader of The Youths Companion
who lives at Fairbanks. in the heart OF
Alaska, writes that the late winter has
been exceedingly cold. There were i've
DAYS in December when the thermometer
never registered less than forty degrees
below zero, and fell at times to fifty EIGHT
degrees below. This is Sensibly colder
than Captain Peary found the weather OF
the pole; and wnen the temperature rose
to zero, everybody talked about how
"warm" il was, and began to speculate
whether winter was about over. Some
of the interesting effects of such extreme
cold are noted by The Companions cor
respondent:
Thick frost appears on nail-heads and
all metal points on inside walls ofhouseS,
as well as on the panels OF doors.
All windows with single thickness OF
glass become coated with frost TO the
thickness of as much as one-fourtn OF an
inch.
Fire-wood, telegraph-poles and wires
and trees are thickly coated with frost,
and mercury frozen.
Cold air rushing in at open doors In
stantly converts the moist and heated air
OF the interior into clouds OF steam.
Exposed portions of the body are
quickly frozen unless guarded. Water
thrown on the ground rattles in frozen
drops, and water wagons are covered
withice, although stoves encloSedin sheet
iron Jackets fitting the interior OF the tank
are kept burning at full blast.
Fog settles down so thickly as TO OBJ
scure the view Of buildings across the
street.
There is oppression in breathing and
pain in the lungs from inhaling the frosty
air.
Horses drop dead from inhaling the fro
zen air, and consequent congestion, and
teams are not permitted to leave the sta
bles.
Birds and animals disappear. Grouse
and ptarmigan burrow in the snow, and
only the dogs remain at large.

LIVES SAVED BY TELEPHONE.
One Man Drank Poison, and Another
Severed Four Arteries.

Within the last several days two lives
have been saved over the telephone.
Rev. J.. w. LentZ, OF Orders, Breth-
rem minister, took poison by mistake tor
his medicine. No physician being here,
his family got instruction from distant
physician. AntidoteS were administered
and his life was saved.
William Mlonich, in Pendleion county,
tried TO cut bullet from the breach Of a
gun. The knife slipped and severed four
arteries in his wrist He was in danger
OF bleeding to death. DR.. Meyers, at
Oak Flat, six miles away, gave instruc-
tions over the phone. Another life was
saved. Mr. Mfonich is 70 years old.
So daily are valuable lives preserved
and saved by the use of the Jefferson
County Telephone.

Human Skull Puzzle.

Despite the progress OF physiology the
study OF the human body is full OF myS-
terry. Some of its we'll known organs
have never revealed either their uses or
the reason OF their creation. The part
played by the spleen in human life was
discovered but recently. 1t is now re-
garded as one of the principal agents in
the circulation OF the blood. But there
are in the marvellous human organism
mysterious parts which it is possible that
no savant, however profound his learn
ing, may ever understand. For instance,
in the skull, behind the cartilage OF the
nose, there is little cavity OF unknown
origin. Psychologists believe that at one
time-Several thousand generations ago
it contained a gland consisting OF two
lobeS joined by their common base.
This cavity-the delta turcica-iS, in
the opinion OF certain savants, the veStige
of a sixth sense which was OF great use
to the antediluvian ancestors of man. 1t
is believed that this little gland enabled
them to see in the darkness when they
had not yet learned the secret OF procur-
ing light; that it was the seat OF the myS-
FERROUS sense of situation of locality, the
power to orient their course, the sense
so highly developed to this day in saw
ages and certain animals. The theory
is plausible, but it is doubtful whether
man will ever acquire any real knowl-
edge of the reason for the existence Of
the delta turcica.

Finally Got To Fighting.

Bishop Woodbridge, of Kentucky, was
discussing the Southern mountalneers,
among whom he had lived and worked
for many years. The question OF family
feuds was brought up and the Bishop re-
lated the following anecdote
"a certain family had attended re-
union, which ended in free-for-all fight
The offenders were taken before the To-
cal Justice of the peace, who questioned
an old woman as to the particulars OF the

The gray squirrels in Central Park,
New York, have so deteriorated, because
of inbreeding and overeating, that wild
squirrels from the woods OF Vermont are
to be imported to improve the stock.
The analogy to human life is striking and
amusing-the same old story OF fresh
country blood making its way in the city.
The park squirrels get so many peanuts
that they become fat and lazy; yet when
the superintendent cut off the supply, the
pampered pets did not know how to pick
up living for themselves, and nearly
starved.
