LOCATE A MIsER's HOARD
Charity Patient at Newton Hospital
Owned Valuable Farm and Had
5000 in Cash.

Taken to a hospital IN a dying CON
dition. as an act of charity. Charles
Perrine, 20 years of age, an old sol
der, who has lived the life of a her
nit forty years, had $500 in bills in
his clothes. The finding of this money
gave Perrine's sisters, Mrs. Georgia
Ann Muller, of Girard, Ill, and Mrs.
Emily Waggoner. of Villain, Wash,
who had been summoned here from
Girard, H., an idea that he might
have more money concealed in the
house on his farm near McLain, and a
visit there on the day of his death, re-
suited in finding 1895 in currency and
So in gold in old clothes hung on the
wall Of his bed room
No further search was made until
the second day following. after his
funeral, when another search was
made and s1,195 in currency found in
various places. The search was kept
up until total of s5,135.80 was I'M
earthed.
Perrine came to this county forty
three years ago and homesteaded a
farm near McLain. About twenty
years and he quit work and rented his
farm The small amount he received
as rent and a pension Of $19 a month,
constituted his entire resources. 0I4e
was never known to have money. His
house was a twO-room shack affair,
and gave every evidence of extreme
poverty.

OueIled Klondike BulIies

On my return to Dawson in the evening 1
strolled into the m. & NJ saloon, where from
the rather disturbed atmosphere of the place I
noticed something amiss- One man was just
picking himself up from the ground, while most
of the attention was concentrated upon drunken
miner sitting on a billiard table. On inquiring
what the trouble was, I informed that the
miner had ''buhaloed" the saloon-in other words.
he defed the crowd any of the bartenders Cthe
whom I had observed picking himself up
of the latter to put him outside No
one accepted the invitation, till the door opened
and trooper of the R. n W. NJ police in his
red coat strOlled in Another trooper quietly fol
lowed. Neither in any way appeared to notice
anything was particularly wrong The first troop
stroled up to the table and looking steadily at
the drunken miner, quietly ordered him to put
on his coat and get out The miner started TO
swear and buster; but at the repeated order,
this time in rather sharper tones, he put his coat
and walked out like lamb. The two troop
followed. They did not even trouble TO
rest him, the occurrence being no unusual one
This little incident made me realize what an
influence this small body Of men had gained in
that wild stretch of country. During the great
rush the troops Of this cOrps-One of the finest
that ever ruled the kings dominions-did their
work in the icy north their wage OF 81 day,
when the lowest wage for ordinary skilled labor
seldom under $40 During that mad rush
into KIondike not a single murder was committed
in British terrftory-From a Wanderers Trail
by A Lotion Ridger.

IRRIGATE BY WELLS
Tests Near Weskan in Wallace
County Are Proving
Successful.
SOLVES A GREAT PROBLEM
IieVes Arid Lands in Western
Kansas Can be Reclaimed.

Bert p. Walker of Osborne, a mem
Der Of the board of irrigation OF the
state, believes that the problem Of re-
claiming the arid lands of Western
Kansas has been solved by irrigation.
For the last week the members of the
board have been at Weskan, where
they have just completed the largest
of the series Of irrigation wells drilled
in the short grass country by the state.
I'VE have just about completed our
biggest well. 1t is near Weskan, in
Wallace county," said Mr. Walker
Last December we called for bids on
this well, and the best we could do
was $4,000 for drilling the well. That
was out of reason, so we bought an
engine and a we'll drilling outfit out
and out ourselves The well is 80
inches in diameter and PA feet deep.
The water rises to within LOG feet of
the top There is 1913 feet of water
bearing gravel in the we'll The pump
will be down 224 feet The well is
Cased with 24-inch No. 6 iron. The
well is one of the finest in Western
Kansas. When cleaned out and ready
for use it should supply fifteen hun
dred gallons a minute That, how
ever, is more water than we VIII use
there We have 100 acres in the farm
and the web viii easily take care of
it. 1t Will thoroughly demonstrate
whether or not irrigation at that depth
can be done probably in Western
Kansas

The rice grown in japan is reckoned among
the best in the world, and she takes third place
among the rice-pToducing countries, and exports
very large quantities She imports rice as well,
and this may sound strange in a rice-growing
country; but the quality of her homegrown rice

classes Although it is the staple food, other
kinds of grain used well-millet, barley
and wheat are cultivated, and have been grown
for food during past centuries in the country.
Crops of these are grown during the time when
the rice fields lie fallOw- Two kinds of potatoes
are grown we'll for consumption.
Hitherto the rice consumers in Japan have
been mostly the people living in the towns the
peasantry looking upon it somewhat of lux
ury But the classes of consumers have been
widening out and the standard of living is grow
ing higher in Japan, and more rice is being con-
sumed in the country than formerly, and this.
in addition to the fact that the population is
rapidly increasing that the question of
the production of the food supplies in the coun-
try in the future is that has to be seriously
considered, and for these reasons the japanese
government has considered the question of the
increasing demand for food supply very care
fully.
Many years ago the institutes for agricultural
experiments were established, and these are do
ing their work we'll. Much has been carried out
for the Encouragement of the farm fields, in the
partitions and in the irrigation systems Of fur
rows and canals; works of this kind carried out
in sufficient extent viii enlarge the farm areas
very considerably and lessen the necessity for
opening up any new land for cultivation. 1t is
by following these methods that japan is prepar-
ing herself to meet the increasing demand for
food Failure of crop and consequent famine
have to be met By iSrger imports, but necessarily
cause great distress among the people.
