DEPARTMENT FOR
BOYS OF FARGO

A wealthy farmer in Illinois who
had large interests in fancy livestock,
when asked why he did not give as
much attention to his three boys as
he did to his fancy horses and cattle,
seemed astonished and asked the ques-
ton if he knew what kind of stock he
was giving SO much attention to. The
q~uestioner answered mo" Then the
practical farmer said with great en-
.phasis: Why man, this is FLOODED
stock
The Fargo Y. Nj. C. A. boys de-
partrnent evidently thinks that all boys
are blooded stock and more-that they
are social, mental and spiritual stock
as well, and that raising a boy is a
business which requires in most, not
only the best Of a parents attention,
but the best possible equipment and
expert supervision that the citizens OF
Fargo can possibly afford.
Although the board of directors feels
that the boys department is the heavi-
est expense they have to carry, yet
they also believe that it is the very
reader doubts this just let them DROP
around to the boys rooms and see the
fine equipment that the boys are now
using, for there is nothing finer in
Fargo. The boys manage 1T them
selves. working through a mems ad-
visory committee.
Some of the things accomplished in
one ear by these ~"bloods;" sixty
boys in a church attendance league
As per cent of these boys were not
previously regular church attendants;
forty boys learning to swim; thirty
six boys completed a prescribed course
in first aid; 212 different boys in gym
nasium classes, fifteen feeds and small
social stunts. During the year there
were many hike and camping parties
at the Y. M. G. A. camp farm at Lake
Cormorant, Mimi; seventy-one boys
planting and caring for gardens. The
latest venture of the boys is an organ
lied efficiency contest. g.
This contest embodieS all phases
of the boys work; physical, religious
and development of promptness and
regularity in all duties. There are in
dividual points for class attendance,
Bible class attendance, and new mem
bers brought in and individual prizes
for the winners. There are team
points for basketball and athletics,
and a turkey dinner for the winners,
while the losers eat of the old time
Boston baked beans. Ask any of the
Y. M. G, A. boys about the big con-
test. They can tell you.
For all this the boys and their par
ents pay 40 per cent Of the actual cost
Of each boys privileges; good citizens,
some who have boys and many who
do not, pay the balance by annual
subscriptions.

Prominent Grafton Woman Dead.

Grafton, N. D., Nov. 29.-It was
with sorrow profound that Grafton
friends learned Thursday that Mrs.
Arthur French, or Mary Mcdonald,
as she was familirly known here, was
dead. Since the death of her brother,
Lieut.. Ray Mcdonald, last May, Mrs.
French has been far from well, and 1t
is believed that her own death result
ed indirectly from the nervous shock
she sustained at that time. She was
devotedly attached to this brother, who
was near her own age, and had not
seen him since his departure for duty
in the orient, about three a ago.
Ten weeks ago Mrs. French vas
stricken with a bronchial affection,
complicated by heart and intestinal
troubles. Acute endocarditis develop
ed, and the following day, Nov. IL,
she passed away. Her husband and
brother, Capt. Don Mcdonald of West
Point. were with her when the end
came.

A FARGO EDITOR
FURNISHED Wife

Last spring, while editor of the local
morning paper. w. F. Gushing re-
ceived a letter from a young woman
living near Altoona, Pa, saying she de-
sired to correspond with a young cow
boy with a view. to ultimate matri-
mony, as she had pictured a life on the
ranch with a dashing cowboy husband
to be all that she could desire. Mr..
Cushing told a story in his paper of
the receipt of the latter and urged the
bachelor cowboys of the North Dakota
plains to get busy through the mails,
addressing their letters to Grace"
care of the local paper.
Many replies came in, some in earn
est and some in josh, while n party
gave the young woman some very
wholesome advice about getting a
husband in that way. Mr.. Gushing
had forgotten all about the episode
until yesterday, when he received a
letter from Minneapolis enclosing a
clipping containing the story of the
maid as first printed here, and saying
that the writer, who had ridden the
ranges of Arizona to Montana" has
seen the notice, co~rresponded with the
young lady, and on Oct. IL, this fall,
was married to her at her home in
Altoona, and thai they were now liv-
ing in Minneapolis very happily. The
letter expressed fervid thanks for the
happy ending of Mr., Cushing's publ
cation and expressed the hope that he
would be as successful in behalf of
any other forlorn maiden. who might
be looking for a husband.
During the Pan-American exposition
Mr. Gushing helped out a young
woman living then in Louisiana by
writing a. story about the scarcity of
| wives in the COW country beyond the
Missouri, with the result that n of
the prosperous ranchers of Stark
county opened a correspondence which
resulted in bringing the two young
people together, a meeting which was
| followed by a happy marriage. "Cush"
ought to open a matrimonial bureau.

Systematic development has been continued on the Kensington property at Berners Bay, which will soon become produc- tive. Some plans were also made to re- open the Jualin mine, located in the same district. In the aggregate con- siderable work was done also on numer- ous other properties between Juneau and Berners bay, The mill at the Eagle River mine was operated only short time during the year, and most Of the work at this place was directed

The government boat Columbine has installed an acetylene light near the cable house.
 Crate Campbell has dis smokehouse completed and is now out after herring. The building is large enough to smoke 10000 herring at one time.
 The largest king salmon caught here so far this season weighed 94 lbs.
 Alex Tassel and Wm. Robertson came down from Douglas last week in the gas boat lone. They have located ground and will build dwelling house and later saltery and smokehouse. This fall they intend to pat ap herring for the market.
 The Hadlin herring scow and seine boat arrived here from Petersburg and will put up market herring and also bait for the halibat boats fishing in Fred. erick sound.
 More than half mile of the big glacier at Thomas bay took slide into the water last week. It made the water in Cleveland pass so muddy that 1t drove the fish down deep and the trolers could not catch any for several days. After the slide one man went up with a shovel and banned out some of the new ground and succeeded in getting a few colors. A good many men and women left Peters burg with picks, shovels and pans, and by last &C., counts have located all the ground where the glacier laid. They are busy washing the gravel, but it is not known whether they are taking out any gold or not. The gravel at the foot of the glacier has always prospected few colors to the pan, but not enough to justify putting in any expense to work it.
 Cyrus Catt brought some rutabagas to Fanshaw the other day from his ranch at Five Mile creek. Some of them weighed 81a pounds.
 The timbe inspector was here one day last week and surveyed line along the beach and put stakes up at the corners of each lot held by the citi- zens of Fanshaw.
