CHICK HARLEY STAR
IN COLUMBUS GAME

Columbus, o., Nov. 25.-Columbus is
all pandemonium tonight with its first
celebration of a Big Nine football
championship going on in every nook
and corner of the town.
To Chick Harley, Ohio States bril-
liant star, goes most of the glory of
score of % to 3. Harley first brought
attention to himself in the first quar-
ter when he kicked a field goal. There
was no more scoring until the fourth
quarter when Paddy Driscoll toed a
field goal and tied the score for North
western.
HARLEY WHOLE THING.
Then Harley broke loose. and made
a 67-yard run for a touchdown. He
followed it up by kicking the goal and
plunging through the Northwestern
line constantly for another touchdown
The final touchdown made by Ohio
was also largely due to Harley's brill
liant work, assisted by Boesel, a sub
stitute, who went in during the last
few minutes of play and tore through
the Northwestern line, time and again,
for big gains.
Paddy Driscoll, Northwestern's star,
played a consistent AMI brilliant game
for the Northwestern but he did not
have the defense built around him
that Harley had.
Ohio State weakened but once, in
the fourth quarter, and Driscoll brought
the ball to the state five-yard line
where the State team held like a brick
wall.

would be a miners meeting next day
and that we would be expected to at

Accordingly we visited the town.

you do. My hangout is just down the
street. Let's have Il drink"
We accepted both his invitations.
Then, after the supper, pipes alight,
we sauntered down the street, a vast
leisure expanding our horizons.
We entered the gambling rooms, Of
which there We're two, and had a drink
of what McNally called "42 caliber
whisky at the bar Of each. In one
of them we found Johnny, rather flush
ed, bucking a faro bank. Yank sug-
Sested that he join IS, but he shook
his head impatiently, and we moved
On. In a tremendous tent made by
joining three or four ordinary tents to-
Sether a very lively fiddle and con-
certina were in full blast. We entered
and were pounced upon by a bolster
u group Of laughing men and had to
join in the festivities.
About 10 o'clock we were getting
tired, and probably the reaction from
the "42 caliber whisky" was making
us drowsy. We hunted up Johnny,
still at his faro game, but he positive
ly and impatiently declined to accom-
pany us. He said he was ahead-or
behind, I forget which. 1 notice both
conditions have the same effect Of
keeping a man from quitting. We
therefore left him and wandered home
through the soft night, wherein were
tWinkling stars, gentle breezes, little
voices and the %silhouettes of great
trees.
Johnny did not return at all that
night, but showed up next morning at
the diggings, looking blear eyed and
sleepy. He told US he had slept with
a friend and replied rather CURLY that
he was q "little behind the game" I
believe myself that he was cleaned
out, but that was none Of our business.
Every night we divided the dust into
five parts. Don Gaspar and Vasquez
got two Of these. The remainder we
again divided into four. 1 took charge
OF Talbot's share. We carried the dust
always with us, for the camp was no
longer safe from thieves.
About this time the first Of the v
land wagon trains began to come
through. Hangman's Gulch was not
on the direct route, but some enterpris-
ing individual had found our trail fair
ly practicable for wagons and ten
miles shorter than the regular road.
After that many followed. and soon
we had a well cleared road. They
showed plainly the h%ardships of a long
journey, for the majority OF them were
thin, sick looking and discouraged.

The board of county commissioners
have been requested to submit the
question of cooperating with the
United States department. of agricul-
ture and agricultural college, in the
employment of county agricultural
agents, to the voters of the county.
That this question may be given
proper consideration the following in
formation is submitted:
The county agricultural agents are
jointly employed by the United States
department of agriculture, the agri.
cultural college, and Cavalier county.
Payments at the rate of So, 400. 90
per year, are now being made through
the United States department of agri-
culture and agricultural college for
the support of the work in Cavalier
county.
During the twelve months, Sep
TENDER 1915, August 1916, inclusive
the total cost of county agent work
to Cavalier county was 1924. Is.
The assessed valuation of Cavalier
county is So, 797, 2OS. 90, thus the ac-
tual expenditure would equal a lvey
of 900, 27S of a cent, or for each
81, 900. 90 of the assessed valuation
of a piece of property q $40 cents
represents the levy for county agent
work. The average quarter section
of Cavalier county is valued at ap-
proximately 81, 200. 90, thus, based
on the cost of work during the
months indicated the total tax on a
quarter section is 33dd cents.
The county agent work is carried
on under the direction of the extern
sion department of the agricultural
college, and of the United States de-
partment of agriculture. The county
commissioners aagree to support the
work and the authorities of the insti-
tuition agree to supervise and direct
it. Full reports of the work perform
ed, from day to day as we'll as an
nually, are filed with the commits
sioners.
The question placed before the vo-
ters of the county resolves itself into
a matter of whether Cavalier county
shall continue to take advantage of
the cooperation as offered by the ag-
ricultural college andsby the sUnited
States department of agriculture.

Thus vanished the first and most
wonderful romance Of the gold. Re-
,duced to wages it was somehow no
longer so marvellous. The element of
uncertainty was always there, to be
sure, and an inexplicable fascination,
but no longer had We any desire to
dig up the whole place Immediately.
l suppose VIC moved nearly as much
earth, but the 1ibers of our minds were
relaxed, and VIC did it more easily and
with less nervous Wear and tear.
Also, as Yank suggested, we took
pains to search out our fellow beings.
The camper below us proved to be Don
Gaspar, velvet breeches and all. He
received us Hospitality and proffered
perfumed cigarettes, which we did not
like, but which we smoked out Of po-
likeness. Our common ground Of meet
ing was at first the natural II Of the

CURE FOR INSOMNIA.
Austrian Physician Says 1t is Merely
a Case of Stretching.

Vienna.-A we'll known Austrian ply
stefan. DR.. Ebstein, claims the dis
covery Of n physical exercise that
will cure insomnia. AS explained in
the Physical and Diet Therapeutics
Journal the cure consists of the simple
process Of grasping with both hands
the head board or rail Of the bed and
of straining upward until the arm and
shoulder muscles are fatigued.
Sleeplessness in most cases is caused
by irregular blood circulation in the
brain, DR.. Ebstein explains. This
ONE to pass because of the slight
difference in altitude between the
head and the heart when one is lying
down. BY raising the arms and strain
ing upward the physician claims the
flow of the blood TO the head is In
creased, while at the same time a GER
tain degree OF fatigue aids in getting
to sleep.
