MT. JACKSON.

Mrs. Alice Hickman, nee Moore,
wife of DR.. Jos. T. Hickman, of near
Mt. Jackson died at her home, last
Wednesday, aged 50 years. She had
been greatly afflicted, having been
confined to her home for over 20
years. AT times she was a great SUI
ferer, but in spite OF her heavy afflic-
ton. was bright and cheerful. She is
survived by her husband, two sons,
Messrs. Thos. and Ed. Hickman and
five daughters, Mrs. Lon Hardy, of
Friendsville, Md, Mrs. Clayton Trip
lett, of Baltimore, Mrs. Frank Dinges,
OF Edinburg, Mrs. Frank Wissler, of
Strathmore, and Miss Katie at home.
Funeral services will be held on Sat
urday morning at II O'Clock.
Paul Harpine, farmer living a
mile and half west of Mount jack
son, killed a steer Tuesday that was
suffering with a severe case of hydro
phobia. The animal began to act
strangely, biting and paving at the
feed trough and showing fight to
everybody and everything that came
near.
Twenty-nine days ago mad dog
chased a number of cattle in the field
and now is supposed that the dog bit
the steer. The case was pronounced
|hydropho5ia by DR.. B. B. Bowers,
veterinary surgeon, who was called in
by Mr.. Harpine when the animal first
began to act strangely. Several per-
sons who saw the dog chasing the
cattle in the field now recall the fact
that the dog was seen barking and
swapping at this steer. 1t is not
known whether any other animals in
this section were bitten or not. Mr..
Harpine's steer was valuable one.
1t weighed 100 pounds.

VIRGINIA In A
STRONG POSITION.

A dispatch from Washington,
last week, reporting the caucus
held by the democratic members
of Congress has the following
to say of the Virginia delega-
ton:
"A survey Of the list shows
the extraordinary prominence of
the State of Virginia. 1t is the
only State which will have chair
manships of three of the impor-
tant committees that govern the
House. This means that Vir-
ginia will in the Sixty-secono
Congress attain an influence and
dominance in the House which
has not been its own for many
years. 1t brings the Old Domin-
ion strongly to the front and,
with a democratic President,
would place it in commanding
position.
The Virginia members slated
for chairmanships have served
for years in the House, and Their
promotion would be strictly &C
cording to civil service rules.
Representative Hay, who will
succeed to the Craftsmanship OF
the Committee on Military AT
fairs, is now completing his
seventh term and has been elect
ed for the eighth. He is one OF
the Democratic leaders and has
made fine record. 1t was Mr..
Hay who began Immediately af-
ter the election in November the
fight for the election of the
House Committees by the House
itself through a committee, and
not appointment by the Speaker.
The caucus, over which he pre-
sided with conceded ability and
fairness, witnesses the triumph OF
his ideas and gained for him d
we'll earned tribute from his
colleagues"

AFTER THE TEMPEST.
The Genial Calm That Settled Over the
Pretty Schoomasm


A pretty schoolma'am once taught
school in Long Island village. All
the young fellows for miles around
were mad about her, but the 81 hooI-
| ma'am was proud and none of the
boys seemed to stand the ghost of
chance
Young Jim Brown, the judges son
was the best looking chap in the
town. and Jim probably loved the
schoolma'am more than any of her
other SWANS. but he never had the
pluck to declare himself He felt too
small and mean before the beauty and
learning of the schooma' am. But one
day, the schoolma'am being away on
a visit i'll New York state. Jim asked
advice of the editor. The editor said:
Take the bull by the horns and in
sert an announcement of your forth
coming marriage in my society col
umn. 1t will cost you only so cents"
So Jim inserted an announcement to
the effect that the schoolma am and
he would be married the next month
and would spend their honeymoon at
Atlantic City
Well. short time after this an
nouncement appeared the schoolma'am
came back home. Jim heard on all
sides how furious she was For sew.

Then one afternoon as she was com

into her in the lane
She let him know at once what she
thought of him and his outrageous
conduct She stormed and raved. and
her pretty eyes flashed fire. Jim stood
first on one foot and then on the 9th

the announcement contradicted"

BANKS TO OPEN
| IN NEW FIELD
Campaign For Better Farm
ing Will Be Waged BY
MinOt Institutions

Minot, N. D. Oct. TIA wide
spread campaign in behalf Of a
system of mixed dairying and
agricultural farming in Ward
county has been launched by a
committee of local bankers, as
a result of the suggestions made
at the recent get together din
ner held at the Commercial club.
After that meeting a committee
composed entirely of bankers of
this city met and took up the
question Of purchasing mich
COWS to supply the farmers of
this section. These bankers be-
lieve that with scientific farm
ing, rotation of crops, conserva-
tion of the old one crop system,
Ward county is capable Of af-
fording plenty for many hundred
! thousand more than it has in its
borders at the present time. Dur
ing the last summer there has
been a great deal of corn raised
in the state and some Of the
very best in the state has been
grown right here in Ward coun-
|ty. The success of the corn
crop here has been so marked
that there has been raised a
question regarding the DISPOSE
tion Of the same. The farmers
of North Dakota realize now the
greatest possibilities of the crop
in this state but in raising the
Indian Maize they do not intend
to burn the corn for fuel as is
sometimes done in Kansas.
This committee of local bank
ers propose to furnish good COWS,
cost price, easy terms, the cow
to pay obligations. They want
to help place the farmers where
they can get the highest price

Mrs. R. E. Knowlton Of this
city last Saturday received from
her friend, Mrs. R. w. Wilkin-
son residing on the Pacific coast,
a rose petal bead chain which is
composed Of the largest beads
ever seen in this city. The MAX
ing of these beads is quite inter-
esting. First the petals are
picked from the roses and put
through a sausage mill fifteen
times making a mass of pulp.
This pulp is rolled. between the
hands into small spheres and put
away to dry. When they COM
mence to harden a hole is
pierced through each sphere
through which to connect the
beads together. When the beads
dry they are as hard as wood
and about as heavy, and can
then be taken to a jeweler to be
made into a chain. The bead
chain holds the scent cf roses as
long as there is anything. left of
the beads. The scent is strong
and equal to that Of any per-
fume. Mrs. Knowlton showed
The Tribune her chain, and as
we had never seen one before it

Minot, N. D. Oct. 17.-Minot
citizens will defend in vigorous
manner the attack made by At
torney General Miller on the con-
stitutionality Of the amendment
providing for a normal school at
Minot.
At a rousing meeting at the
Commercial club arrangements
were made for securing the best
legal talent obtainable to appear
before the supreme court October
"a when the injunction secured
by Attorney General Miller is
returnable.
In accordance with a motion
adopted at the meeting President
A. M. Thompson of the Com
mercial club appointed the follow
ing committee to arrange for the
defense before the supreme
court: Dorr H. Carroll, DR.. A..
Carr, C. A. Grow, Erick Ram

This committee will make ar
rangements for the attorneys to
represent Minot and will also
collect funds for carrying on the
fight and will have general
SUPERVISION over the campaign
that Minot is about to undertake.
Great enthusiasm prevailed at
the meeting. It was the opinion
of all, irrespective Of preference
as to site, that it is up to Minot
to put up a fight.
