The fact that he has'a lot of speed matters not, for a fast ball is| easier to handle than a lot of shoots | and ourves. I'll stake my reputation Waiter Johnson. that Johnson’s delivery will be as weil handled this season as it ever has been before. Incidentally, Walter should have the best season of his career. He will have a careful prep- | aration because he will not be asked | to do a lot of work in the spring. He will report a week later than the oth- er pitchers and then gradually work himself into shape. I wish that trving to find a man who can catch Jonnson was all we had to worry about. It would be soft picking indeed.” LR CR R R RO OO R R ORIl © AT THE FORESTRY MEETING © | ® Continued from First Page. &| POPOOPOOOOOOO® OO low and they are not burning any- thing at all, and the fact is that in the northern part of the state of| Minnesota, the state forestry provls~‘ ion is considered a farce. I think| that the man who operates In cedar or hulp wood should be compelled to | burn the brush. I do believe that| the man who operates in pine should | be compelled to burn the brush as he makes it.” Disagrees With Welsh, Mr. Bolton: “I don’t agzee with Mr. Welsh in one thing. I don’t like to have the feeling go out. I think that the large operators in the state of Minnesota do stand ready to do what is right in the burning of brush. It is only a question of get- ting at what is right and what is best.”” Mr. John Moberg: “I know of the brush burning that has been done on the reservation east of us and I know that is a nice clean country anyway, but in the country north of us I think if they undertake to burn the brush north of us Kelliher and Blackduck, they will have an awful proposition. I don’t think any one would take a job of burning the brush on any land for $2 a thousand. T know I would not. There are places on the reservation that cost me less than fifty cents but that was differ- enttimber and different country. Another thing I want to ask you gentlemen about. I cut some land near Kelliher, just cut the pine and spruce, and the balsam and the rest of the timber belongs to the farmer. Now I don’t know whether he wants me to burn the brush or not. If I burn the brush I will have to burn the balsam and the rest of the stuff. 1 guess he wants me to burn the balsam and then sue me for damages. 1 might be up against a pretty hard proposition. And if I burned in the winter, I would burn a lot of stuff and burn the spruce even then. As long as you burn anything that | is any good they would have a kick coming.” ) Called Fire Department. Mr. Witting: “I bought timber on some land that the fire had been over and had killed part of the cedar. It was in danger of all dying, part of it was standing but part of it was down. When I purchased the timber I promised to dispose of the slash according to law. I have been trying to find out what the law means in that particular sense. We tried to burn the brush as we proceeded and we had not burned it more than an hour or two when we had to call the fire department out. ‘We not only burned all the brush but we burned all the cedar we made and nearly lost our camp. This win- ter has been very favorable for burning brush because we have had little snow. “We tried burning brush in mak- TO CUAE A COLD IN ONE DAY Take LAXATIVE BROMO Quirine Tab- lets.

We could not get a tie maker to make a tie at twenty cents and burn his brush. We are looking for informa- tion as to how to comply with ‘the law without spending as much mon- ey as the property is worth.”" Cuts 12,000 Acres. Mr. Lakin: “We cut about twelve | thousand acres a year. We own most of our lands and we are anxious to have all this stuff on it. We do everything to save the timber be- cause we all realize the value of it, up here in the northern part of the state more than any where else. We !don’t cut sixty per cent of the tim- ber that is on the ground. We take off the pine, spruce and sometimes the tamarack. The birch, elm and ash is left. “We have been piling our brush in the winter and burning it in the spring. There is no danger of fire running except on land we have cut. No danger of burning up your neigh- bor in the spring. If you leave it until fall, you will cause big fires and burn up your neighbor’s prop- erty as well as your own. We want to co-operate with the department, {in every way we can and we mever have had any friction at all in any way. If we don’t burn it to suit them, I want them to send a man on to take charge of the work and we will pay them to do the work for us, but I do believe the only time to burn it is in the spring.” Mr. Pray: “Our conditions around Akely are rather peculiar. We do all our operating through contrac- tors. We have very little swamp land. Most of our land has very little hardwood and very little tam- arack and no cedar whatever and practically no spruce and balsam. We have a great deal of jack pine which is very dense. Our cut was 26 per cent jack pine. IN THE BEMIDJI CHURCHES. (Continued on last pag2 will be held at 3 p. m. and at 8 p. m. Mrs. Dunning will continue to assist with the music. Everybody welcome.

I should never try to deceive anybody in that way.” . - “Still, you wouldn’t want every- body to know you were forty-one, would you?” “Forty-one! The idea! I'l not be thirty-two till my next birthday.” THEN ASKED HIM HIS NAME New Boarder Tells Table Neighbor His Infallible Method in Handling Landladies. The new boarder dropped in at din- ner time and sat next to the only other man at the table. The new boarder thought it was up to him to be affable and friendly. “I suppose you've boarded here for gome time?” he asked the solitary ine dividual. “Yes, quite awhile.” “How is it, any good?” “I find it pretty fair; I've no com- plaint to make.” “Landlady treat you decent?” “Well, perhaps I ought to—" “Never mind, never mind,” said the new boarder. “I'm on. Did you ever try chucking her under the chin. That’s always the way to get on with these boarding-house landladies. I can always get ‘em on my side. Treat these old dames nicely and I'll bet you can live in the house a month and never be asked for a dollar. Watch me hand her the ‘con’ when she comes In. TN bet that this time tomorrow she’ll be handling me the best in the shop. Poor old girl! She looks as If she’d had her troubles. Probably married to some measly runt who never did a day’s work in his life. Bhe earns the coin and he spends it. Watch me give her the real sympa- thy. Say, my name’s Smith. Let's see, I didn’t hear yours?” “No—I didn’t mention my name—it fdoesn’t matter—much—I'm merely the landlady’s husband.” DISTINOT VALUE OF PICTURES care in Selection lnd Hanging Will Be Well Repald In Increased Pleasure Afforded. “A room hung with pictures is room hung with beautiful thoughts. How many of us give the right amount of careful thought in hanging pictures on our walls? Do we ever think of the pleasure and effect on ourselves of the paintings or prints that are constantly before our eyes? “That chromo makes me wild,” says one protesting esthetic woman, as she gazes on a relic of the barbarous age in art. It is a vividly colored print of a very old and very ugly Jullet lean. ing over the balcony in the arms of a Romeo' who would not take & prize for anything except climbing up a vine. The walnut frame is old and matches the execrable “whatnot” of our mothers’ time, The whole thing is unpleasant, badly drawn, badly col- ored and absolutely out of place, and yet it hangs on, simply because gsome dead aunt saw fit to give it at an an- niversary! Pictures should please. They should educate and elevate. They should be of the good painters. How rich is the treasure from which we can choose! How wonderful are the modern re productions” at ridiculously little cost! Begin now to tear down the mean- ingless prints that speak nothing to you. Hang upon your walls restful, beautiful pictures that will have just as much effect, psychologically, on ‘your nerves, your mind, your soul, as the companions of your hours. HAD NO TIME FOR SLUMMING ‘After Answering Impertinent and Su- percilious Questions Host Hands London Lady a Joit. The Rev. Sylvester Horne, the noted liberal clergyman and member of par- Hament of London, was talking at a dinner about charity. r “The trouble with most charity,” he sald, “Is that it is administered in a grudging, condescending spirit. Char- ity, to have any effect, must be ad- ministered in a spirit of absolute sym- pathy—a spirit, I may . also say, of ab- polute humility, ‘To uplift, get under- peath,’ as the philosophic Ade well said. t “There was once a London lady, the wife of a millionaire promoter, who fdecided, being rather bored, to go in for charity. So she rang for her elec- tric brougham and glided in a luxur- lous silence down to the New Cut, “The lady selected the very worst house in the New Cut, and she paid a call of about half an hour on the poor, tired, underfed woman who lived there. The questions she asked this woman were supercilious and imperti- pent. The lady had a very good time: “But when she came to go, her hos- tess, whose cheeks were now unm- wontedly red, rather spoiled her good iime by saying quietly: z “Well, good-bye, madam. I don't Juppose I'll see‘you again. The fact Is, T haverft time to go slumming my- n}ll.‘ "—Washington “Star. Wc OWE THEM MUCH Survivors of Indian Wars Ignored by Congress. LOCKWOOD PLEADS FOR THEM Writes Feslingly of His Comrades Who Fought the Treacherous Redskinse—8ends Program of Soldiers” Amateur Show. By GEORGE CLINTON. Washington.—A letter to a Wash- ington man written by James P. Lockwood of Chicago, commander of the Phillp H. Sheridan garrison of the Regular Army and Navy Union, sug- 8ests that the regular army survivors of the Indian wars from 1866 to 1898 are deserving of better treatment than congress seems disposed to give them, Early in the seventles James P. Lockwood joined the Seventh cavalry and he fought with Custer’s command until the Sjoux annihilated the gener- al and the members of his squadron in June, 1876. Lockwood was a mon- commissioned officer in Reno’s squad- Ton of the Seventh on the day of the Custer fight, a command which was engaged in a fight of its own at the time_that Custer held off the swarm- Ing Sloux. It was Lockwood, who, with a trooper companion, carried Lieutenant Benjamin Hodgson from the place where he fell mortally wounded to a place back of the troops, thus saving him from falling into the hands of the Indians. In his letter the former trooper says that when a young soldier enter- ed Columbus Barracks, O., early in the seventies as a récruit he saw written over the entrance, presumably by some grimly humorous veteran, the hopeless words which the poet put over the gateway of hell. Lockwood writes feelingly. He says: “Our con- gress at Washington should not for- get this element of our veteran sol- diery altogether when they are con- sidering giving to the veterans of the Civil war such increases and such help as are extended and carried in the Sulloway and Sherwood bills.” He writes also of what he considers the injustice of the regulation which forbids the admission to the Soldiers’ Home _at Washington of any veteran frontier soldier unless he can show that he bas been disabled in the line of duty. “All these veterans,” says Lockwood, “gave up a part of their pay month by month for years for the support of the home to which they are forbidden admission.” An Oid Program. In his letter the old Seventh cav- alryman encloses a reproduction on satin of the program of a theatrical entertainment given at Fort Abraham Lincoln, D. T, April 9, 1874, The men players of the company were all troopers . of the Seventh cavalry. Trooper Stamford Hiley, who took the priueipal part in one of the plays, was_killed with Custer. and so was one other member of the troop., Hi- ley was the son of an Englishman of title. He came to this country to seek adventure. and found it with death at its end as a member of the Seventh cavalry. His bones are under the Custer monument on the battlefleld. ‘This is the program: LINCOLN OPERA HOUSE. FORT A. LINCOLN, D. T. Manager ...... .John Kelly Stage Manager ....
