Little Willie Knew.

Congressman Robert NJ. Switzer,
of Ohio, smiled when the conversa-
tion turned to the bright remarks
occasionally made by the little folk.
He said he was reminded of an in
cident that happened in his home
State.
In a prosperous rural community
the village doctor was also the su-
perintendent of the Sunday school
incidentally, he taught a class OF
small boys.
willie" impressively remarked
the doctor one Sunday afternoon tc
a bright faced youngster, "can you
tell me what We must do in order
to get to heaven?'
"Yes, SIR was the prompt re-
sponse of William, I'VE must die"
THAT is very true" said the doc
tor, encouragingly, "but can't yor
tell me what we must do before We
die?"
"Yes, sir" was the startling re
joinder of little Willie, I'VE must ge'
sick and send for you"

Forcibly Feed Big Snake.

After being imported from India,
the largest snake Gagged in the Lin
coin Park 700, at Chicago. steadfast-
ly refused to take nourishment and
was believed to be gradually starving
to death. In the several months of
his captivity his weight decreased
from 800 to 215 pounds. Numerous
methods of rousing him were tried
without success. until food gun was
purchased and the reptile fed fore
IDLY. The instrument is provided
with a large cylinder and plunger
actuated by a crank. The snake was
taken from his cage, given a hot
bath, during which his summer coat
was removed, and then placed on
board, 80 feet in length, at. the end
of which the food gun was with its
cylinder, loaded with 90 pounds of
chopped pork and beef mixed with
fresh pigs blood, was mounted. The
strength of 20 men were required to
carry out this operation A board
through which a circular hole was
drilled was then inserted between the
REPTILES jaws, and a tube extending
from the nozzle of the food machine
passed through this into his throat.
The crank was turned, and the meat
forced into the snake. Before the
operation was finished so pounds of
the mixture was disposed Of in this
manner, and the snake was then re-
turned to his cage.-March Popular

face they raised their pistols and
took deliberate aim although it has
been asserted that Decatur intend
ed only to wound his opponent. The
fact that Barron was hit in the exact
spot Decatur had indicated seems to
bear out his claim. Commodore
Bainbridge was Decatur's second,
while Captain Elliot acted for Bar

Before the command to fire was
given Barron addressed Decatur:
"Sir, I hope on meeting in another
world We will be better friends than
in this"
Decatur replied: Il have never
been your enemy, sir.
Both fired at the same instant.
Both fell, revived, forgave, regretted
the act, and parted. Both were taken
to Washington, Decatur to his home
near Lafayette square, where he soon
died. Barron, after IS days of con-
valescent was removed to Hampton

A few days later the two met and
renewed their old friendship.

Another German Cruiser Puts Into
Newport News.

Newport News. Va, April ll.-The
German converted cruiser kronprinZ
Wilhelm. another of those elusive
raiders of commerce in the South
seas, slipped into this port today and
asked for fuel and provisions. Many
times reported destroyed, the former
North German Lloyd liner evaded
evaded hostile warships for eight
months while she sent fifteen mer-
chantmen to the bottom, and her Of
ficers say she was forced to steal her
way through a fleet of four allied
cruisers off this coast in order to
reach this refuge.
We got in without being seen by
the enemy. and we can get out the
same way" declared her commander,
Lieut.. Capt. Paul Thierfelder, former
ly navigating officer of the German
cruiser Karlsruhe.
When she anchored off Old Point
the Wilhelm had less than twenty
five tons of coal and scant provisions
for the crew of 500 men and CT
prisoners from British merchant
ships sunk in the South Atlantic. Of
the fifteen ships that the drab-paint-
ed 15,000-ton cruiser came with a
record of capturing, fourteen of them
sunk, nine were British, four French
and one Norwegian. The British ship
Chasehill, captured, was allowed to
proceed, taking to shore more than
900 prisoners from previous raids
The value of these ships and their
cargoes officers of the Wilhelm to-
night estimated at S7,0OO.000.

4 Noble Letter.


they also understand the nobler SEN
timents of respect ana sympathy.
While their bitterness toward the
English has brought to the surface
a certain hardness and bitterness,
their attitude toward the French in
dicates no such feeling. The tolerant
contempt with which Prussian
strength and pride looked upon
France before the war has changed
to admiration by the steadiness, cour-
age and calmness with which the
French have met their invasion.
There is little doubt that today Ger
many would welcome an alliance with
France! and German soldiers would
gladly throw down their arms to
rush across the trenches and shake
hands with their antagonists.
This respect for brave foe has
found admirable expression in a let
ter of consolation from a German
army doctor to a stranger Wi
dow of distinguished Frenchman
killed in battle, Pierre Leroy-Beau-
lieu.
"Honored Madame,' wrote the
doctor, in the midst of his over
whelming hospital work, while ex-
pressing my deepest, coincidence, I
have the honor to acquaint you with
the fact that monsieur. your hus-
band, captain of territorial sec
ton of the -th artillery regiment,
died yesterday in my ambulance sta
ton as a result of severe wound
in the head Also that when he was
brought in to me he had been fight
ing with the bravery of hero.
After all his men had fallen he
went on serving his gun with his
own hands. When he was obliged
to cease he continued to defend HIM
self with his revolver, until he was
brought down by the bullet which
entered his right temple and damag-
ed his eye.
"He was wounded on January 13.
The wound was so grave that he i'm
mediately lost consciousness, and did
not recover it until his death, which
was without suffering and gentle.
The burial took place today III our
military cemetery, with military
honors, in the presence of German
officers and soldiers.
The grave has been ornamented
with a cross. and may be recognized
by the number 76. The benediction
was given by the Catholic priest of
our army corps. l bend my head in
sincere respect and profound admira-
ton before the valor of this comrade,
fighting heroically to the last extremi-
ty for his Fatherland.
"At the same time it is my sim
cere regret that our medical science,
which of course did everything that
could be done for him, failed to pre-
serve this life so precious to his kin.
Accept, madame, the expression
of my highest esteem. May God COM

One may read war stuff for

NORTH DAkoTA'S
INDUSTRIAL FUTURE

1t now seems likeley that North
Dakota, which is recognized as
one of the leading agricultural
states of the Union, will within a
comparatively few years take
good rank as All industrial state
also. This is due to the fact that
North Dakota will have cheap
power and power is very i'm
portant factor in industrial de-
velopment.
The power question is now
one of general interest i'll many
localities. and it has also been
the subject of study by DR.. j. M.
Gillette of the North Dakota I'm
iversity. Power i'm North Dakota
will come from two sources,
namely, from Ignite coal and
from hydro-electric development
of the rivers of Northwestern and
western Minnesota. These two
sources will be the first developed
because Of the fact that eastern
North Dakota will furnish the
first market. In fact, this power
is now being installed in Grand
Forks by the Red River Power Co.,
which has extensive water rights
in western Minnesota. In Wahpe-
ton The Otter Tail Power Co., is
playing an important part.
The neormous coal fields Of
western North Dakota will I'M
doubleday be utilized in the years
to come for the development Of
cheap electric power at the mines
which can be sold all over the
state at a very low rate. North
Dakota in the years to come will
have many different kinds OF OPP
to offer to her people.
Few states can surpass her. z

ent parts of this state, is being
taken in Grand Forks, where ex-
periments are now being made in
the matter, Of utilizing alkali
lands. As a means or using such
lands, the growing of sweet Glow
er is being tested near Larimore.
Sweet clover has been grown
there as field crop for about
three years. and has proven adj
aptable to sandy and alkali soil.
In feeding it is found, that after
stock has become accustomed to
it, it we'll relished. On the Crystal
Springs Stock Farm, it has been
pastured, fed as hay, and fed as
silage, and in all forms. There
has been no trouble in getting
the stock to consume large duan-
titles.
The production of seed has
been found to be very profitable,
DIS it sells for about twenty five
cents a pound. The demand
comes principally from the east,
where it is grown on lands that
are so worn out that it is difficult
to grow anything but sweet Glow
er.
Some of the advantages of
sweet clover are:
Rich in protein like alfalfa.
Furnishes early spring pas
ture.
Great soil enriching crop.
Good green manure crop.
Seeds freely.
Will grow where clover and al
falfa fail.
(a) Low wet, alkali and acid
soils.
(b) On poor soil, especially on
light sandy soils.
Some of the disadvantages:
If allowed to grow too large
stems become hard and bitter and
leaves fall off.
Not relished by stock as a rule
until accustomed to it.
The successful use Of Alkaii
land means much added value to
many sections of our state.

Colonel Robert M. Thompson,
President, Navy League,
Washington, d. C.
My dear Colonel:
assume from your letter of
the Goth ult., and from your var
iOus utterances as President of
the Navy League, that the impress
sion you desire to create in the
minds of the American people is
that none of the men who found
ed. or who have been, or are now,
directors of or contributors to
the Navy League, have ever been,
or are now, in any manner inter-
ested i'm any concern which would
profit financially from the $780,
900, 900 bond issue for battle
ships, etc, which you are advo-
eating.
I understand your position to
be that none of the money which
the Navy League has used to
banquet Members of Congress and
Secretaries of the Navy or to car
ry on the propaganda for the
vastly increased naval appropria-
tions which you advocate, has
come from any gentlemen who
stand to profit therefrom. I con-
tend that the opposite is true.
In your letter you request that
I give you some specific informa-
ton.

that j. P. Morgan, who is direc :
tor of the United States Steel
Corporation, was formerly treas
urer of the Navy League and rs
