STRANGE GUN WAS FOUND
NEAR CHATFIELD RECENTLY

A relic of by-gone days came to
light recently when Ed. C. Aurzada,
road overseer, and Henry Rebein,
were Strengthening piece of road
south of Chatfeld. An old rifle, of a
peculiar breech-loading type, was un-
earthed by the pillow, and considering
the length of time that it must have
been imbedded in the ground, it is
in good condition. The gun is heavi-
ly constructed and used a large but
let or slug. Several gun experts of
that community have seen and exa-
mined the rifle and some seem of the
opinion that it was foreign made.
Whether frontiersman, fur trader,
immigrant, Indian or some member
of an early wagon train left the gun
where it was found, will never be re-
vealed. Safe to assume, however, is
the fact that the gun rested for
many, many years in its safe hiding
place foot or so under the ground.

HUNDREDS TRAVEL OVER
OLD MILACA TRAIL


Hundreds Of citizens Of the Mile
Laos district made the trip, last
week, over the old Milaca trail to
Minneapolis. The trail followed by
these people correspondent roughly to
the trail formerly used by French
voyageurs and lumbermen.
People from nearly dozen towns
of the Mile Laos region gathered at
Onamia, Monday, for the purpose Of
making the trip. A great number of
them came to Minneapolis for the
purpose of attending and taking part
in the Tribune-Park board sing at
Powderhorn park. Another objective
was to prove to the state in general
that the Milaca trail, state highway
No. 10, is in first class condition. 1t
has been asserted that travellers are
avoiding this region because Of sup
posed poor roads.

Applause at Concerts

w yE would like to make more suggestion. in
w regard to City Band concerts and that is
w concerning the public reception of individual
selections
It seems to be a quaint old custom in Redwood
Falls, to follow each selection, regardless Of how well
it is rendered by giving vent to expressions Of APP
probation by blowing beep-horns, squawking horns
and what-not. This certainly adds nothing to the
effects of good music well played. How much more
expressive would be to employ the good old fashion
ed method of hand applause rather than the highly
mechanical huzzas in vogue.

Mule, vs., Motor

n Depart
;rmenta of Agriculture, the average cost of power
-! from work animals on farms as shown by a
farm power survey, is stwentyeght cents per horse
power-hour. The cost from tractors is eight cents
Taking these figures basis for comparison
with the cost of electricity the rural division of Ala
bama Power Company asserts that during the past
its $4,000 rural customers have paid an average
of only 4.67 cents per kiowatt-hour which is the
equivalent Of about SO cents per horsepowerhour for
the energy used by thern.o~
These rural customers used nearly sixteen million
horsepowerhours of electricity last year, so that an
equivalent amount If furnished by horses and mules
would have cost them three and half million dollars
more than they actually paid. The amount of
power from tractors would have cost about 100000
more than the total Of their electric bills
This would seem to- indicate that rural electrified
ton hasprogressedto theipoint where its economy for
farmers can mo- longer be questioned.

area so that the surface traffic problem may be re-

Effect of Stimulants
TOR many years scientists have carried on expert
r. ments with a view to determining with some
exactness just what the effects of various sti-
mulants the human system. These experiments
have not been confined alcoholic beverages but have
included Investigations of the effects of such mder
stimulants as tobacco, coffee and tea.
Prof Norman w. Lyon of the psychological de-
partment of Columbia University recently conducted
an exhaustive series of tests devoted the effects
of coffee his Subjects the results of which have
been made public.
AS may have been expected, all the subjects
tested did not show the reactions, but the
suits sufficiently uniform to warrant gen.
eral conclusions, which also agree quite closely with
those of Professors Hoefer and Hardy.
It found that while some steadied by
drinking coffee, others experienced cold hands and
feet, palptaton of the heart and nervousness Also
noted that while coffee drinkers showed great
speed in certain work, they suffered in accuracy,
and that those who drank decaffeinated coffee
at all maintained higher average of steadness than
those who drank ordinary coffee. Another conclusion
was that persons of low intelligence not much
affected by coffee as those intelligent and high
strung.

Wife Sold at a Profit

lew Of the present generation, particularly in the
r. North, know that before the Civil War a great
many negroes in the South owned other negroes
slaves Some interesting facts concerning the sub
ject are given in Prof. Carter Goodwin Woodsons
book "Free Negro Heads of Families"
He shows that as far back as 1880 one-seventh of
the negroes in the country were free, of them
rch owning large plantations and other valuable pro-
perty In 1857 one negro in South Carolina owned
200 slaves, in Louisiana four negroes owned respec-
lively o. 80, SO and Al slaves Many others owned
smaller numbers, it being estimated that 10000 free
negroes owned nearly 100000 slaves at one time.
The story is told of Charleston negro who ad-
mred female slave owned by neighbor and bought
her for wife. Later on, when she had failed to be-
have herself he thought proper, he sold her at a
profit of $50.

Sometimes they lodge in the sole OF

Wherever they go they set up an in

in a hard capsule to wait, sometimes
for years, until chance sends them on
another adventure into the intestine

say, after enclosure in the capsule.
