Cancelled His Vow
How a Conscientious Man was
Induced to Take q Hand
at Poker.
Chicago News.)

Chicago News.)
No, gentlemen" replied the man
with the yaller whiskers, as he was
asked to take a hand in a game of
poker. II beg you to excuse me. I'm
not against card playing on principle,
but Ave years ago I made a vow never
to play again."
For your mothers sake?" queried
the ~glue-factory traveller.
"oh. no. My mother died many
years ago. I was on a c., B. and @.
Of poker. There were FIVE Of us and
I had never had such luck in my life.
One Of the players was from Montana
and he finally put up 200 acres OF
land against 5000 in cash"
And you won?"
He had a full house and vet l
bluffed him on a pair Of tens. II
turned out that the land was a narrow
strip Of high mountain. and not worth
a cent. 1t was an old mining claim,
I believe"
But where does the VOW come in?'
Il will tell you. After holding that
land three years I sold 1t to a Chicago
stone syndicate, and the men were put
to work q%uarrying stone. A blast
started an avalanche, and not only ten
workmen lost their lives, but a party
Of twenty-five Of my fellow creatures.
Had I not won that land it would no,
have been sold for a quarry"
Yes. we see,'' said the glue man.
THE other fellow would probably
have used it for a toboggan slide?"
II believe that was his plan, sir"
And II he did, the slide might have
busted some day and so people been
hurled into eternity"
DO you think it possible? 2"
"Not only possible. but extremely
probable. Yes, a hundred people
might have been involved in the aw.
full disaster. I figure 1t that you have
saved the lives Of about SO people and
are entitled to great credit"
DO you really assure me?"
I'VE all do"
Then gentlemen. I will cancel my
vow and take a hand I'M"
And at the end of an hour every
man in the game against him was
dead broke and cussing the winners

Splendid Improvement in crop con-
ditions in North Dakota are reported
from several sections. During the
last two weeks the crops hav shown
exceptional advances, the heavy rains
of early July. after the long period
of near drought, working wonders in
restoring the grain to it's natural con-
dition.
Heads are filling we'll; the grain
has increased in length and the one
time fear of heavy crop damage seems
to have been wholly dissipated.
Local reports from several districts
indicate the changed conditions:
Velva, n. D.--The prospective yields
in this district have been increased at
least thirty per cent. and in some in
stances about fifty per cent, during
the last two weeks. Two weeks ago
it was estimated that the average in
this district would be only about
seven bushels, but that estimate is
now very much too low. Another
heavy rain within the last week has
added to the good prospects.
Lakota, N. D.-Southern Nelson
county is in much better condition
than the northern half, the seasons
rains having practically all been local
in character. South of Michigan very
fair conditions. Winter rye has fall
len off, while early wheat is in a bad
way. and some of the early sown stuff
has been plowed down. Late sown
grains, oats, barley INT flax. are do
ing we'll. while corn has shown up
exceptionally good.
Flaxton, n. D.-Many farmers be-
tween here n Des Laos lost quite
heavily by hail. but much rain ac-
companied the storm and considerable
benefits also resulted from the fall.
On five or six farms the losses are
total: elsewhere they range from 20
to 60 per cent.
Wolford. n. D.-Heavy rains ac-
companied a hail storm which swept
through a part of this district, the
attendant benefits being greater than
the damage. Corn and oats suffered
particularly in the hail.
