Youog Women Who Own 1he Land they Cultivate, They Find More, Vexation in Getting Rid of the Cranks Who Want to Marry them than in Earning a Living—A Fair Proposition, New York Sun, Mircngeis, Dak., July 8.—Most of the young ladles who own and work farms in this territory have a great abhorrence of notorlety becauss of the namber of bores that are sure to hunt them up, olther in person or by letter. A floating paragraph about a young woman who has & farm noar this place, whish appeared In the newspapors a fow years ago, brought her more than a hundred lotters instde of three months, These missives were of every variety under the sun, and In- cluded nearly everthing, from an offer of advice on wheat planting to proposl- tions of marrlage. While speaking with hcr yesterday on theeo subjects she sald: “I had some of the fanniest letters you ever read. About a dozn of them were from me2 who wanted to marry, evidently a lazy, shiftless lot, for not one of them could spell, and In every case the letters indieated ignorance even of the common codrtesios of llfe. The; were principaily from widowers, and all began by saying that they had been thinking of golng to Dakota for a lonz tlme. 1 suppose they all thought that I would jump at the chance to get them. 1 never answered any of them. Some of the letters were from old ladles in the eastern and middle states who wanted to give me good advice, and others were from girle, widows, and old malds asklng how I managed to get along, and what was necessary for them to do In order to got themselves established as well as 1 am. I answered some of these, and two or three of them have wrltten me since. “The worst nuisances that I have to deal with,” she continued, *‘are the men, young and old, who come out to see me. They ara about the toughest lot I ever heard of, 1 have had to drive some of them off the place, as they seemed deter- mined to stay. 1 suppose that it s so awrywlmre, but 1t seems strange that a woman can’t go aheed and accomplish somethlng for herself without belng wor- ried to death by all the old bummers, cranks, widowers, and dudes wlithin a thoutand miles, One young fool came to see me last apring, and after following me around a six-acre lot twlce, just be- cause I treated him decently, actually had the nerve to ask me if my thoughts ever turned to mateimony. I told him they never had, though I dldn't know what might happen If I came across just the right person. That seemed to help him on a little, and he asked what sort of a pereon It wonld have to be. I told him I didn’c know, and called his attentlon to the fact that my off horse was a little oft his feed. ““How would I do?” says tho young fel- low. and I says: “If I had a ten-acre lot full of fellows like you I wouldn’t take the trouble to ecrape you up with s horse rake.’ “‘One elderly man from Pennsylvania csme here last fall and, stopping in town, he would drlve out hers every day. He began at firat by pretendlng to have a Then he wanted to know how I stood financlally, ¥ | how I got my farm, and how much I made from it. 1t took him meveral days to got what he wanted to know, and then he in- 1o |tmated a with on hls partto take tea with me, and spend an hour or two in the evening at my house, as there was somothing that ho wanted to say to me. 1 trled to get rid of him, but he was old enough to bomy father, and was so de- cent about things generally that I finally consented, After tea he took out a couple of chairs on the east slde of the house, and when we had both seated our- gelves, he said: ‘T have been thinkIng for a long time about marrylng agsia. 1've got—' ¢ ‘Now, you stop right where you are,” wald I, ‘or Tlislck the dogon you. If that's the natare of your remarks, we'll adjourn this mestlng right here, I've got work to do, and I don’t want any foollng around,’ ““You never saw a man get up and glt iike he did, He never sald a word, and 1 have never ecen him since. “‘I rather like some of these young chaps from the city, though—the kind that are not making love, but who are alweya waniiog to help you. They think they are so strong, and when there ls anything to be done they are so quick to take hold; but, graclous goodness, 1 could break a good many of them In two if I wanted to. They're good boys, though, and I'll never say anything sgalnst them,” This young lady, who {s as brown as a berry and ag solid as a rueset, with all tho sprynees and grace of the gentlest of her sex, owns 160 azres of good land, and has It under a pretty falr state of oulti- vation, Soms old farmers might make fun of a fow things and she readily ad- mits that she bas much to learn, but she mauages to make her living and conslder- ably more. Her mother lives with her and with the asslstance of s stout maid of all work, they get along without any maleThelp, Before the young woman came here she tried to make her living as a dressmaker ip a small Michlgan town, bat she failed at that and finally deter- mined to come here and settle down on a farm. She laughingly says she don’t know Low long she will keep at it, and there are those who suspect that before long somebody will come whose sult will not be in vain, ““‘Jast glve me & boost with this bag of corn now, Pleasure first, business afterward.’ ‘‘He never returned to the subject, nordid I, There have been others:just like him, and we have found that the best way Is to juat pass them off, They get over It right away, and If it dou’z them any more than it does us, no harm is done. There s one polnt, though, on which my slster and I are agreed. We realize well enovgh that the time may come when it will be best for us to be married. This life 1a not all pleas- ant, by any means, but there s one supreme eatlsfaction about it. We are now Independent, and whatever course we pursue will be tollowed because we want to follow it, and not be bave to. Apy two young men who th!nk they are coming out hera to settle down on cne farm are golng to find ont thelr mistake, We have figured the whole thing out, and our terms are fixed, if till we're forty years 200 acres of good land, and when we marry there must be two more 200-acra lots with ours. Now, I call that a falr proposition, aud any way it 1s the only vne that we'il ever accept.” Up near Blunt there are two young slsters, not more than 25 years old, who own and work a farm of 200 scres. They went to thelr claim before thers was a building of any kind there, taking a tent along to live in, acd with the aseis‘ance of a carpenter for a few days they butlt thelr houss and sheds and made ready for farming operations. These gitls osme from an Iilinols town, where they had heard storles of the productiveness and cheapness of Dakota lands, and ha ing no near lelatives to opposs them, they struck out to make their fortune. Daring the first year they had a pretty hard time of It. They were healthy, bat not robust, and a great deal of the work that they had to do would have tired the strongest man sorely. Thelr capital was amall, and they did not reallzs enough the first year to pay thelr own oxpenses, but nelghbors took an Interest in them, and the asslstance which they rendered carrled them through, After that they prospered, and every year now th% do better than the year before, hen I saw theee glrla last, about two months ago, they were rosting after a hard day’s work In the field, Except that their hands were hard and brown, they appearedlike any other young women whom one might meet, save possibly that they were fresher, healthler, and brighter, They both declared that nothing could induce them to leave thelr farm, and that no proposition for a life of {dlencss and luxury In a clty would have any allurements to them. I suggested the ever present tople of matrlmony, when one of them, the younger, replied with a good deal of splrit: “That is what the men are always talking about, We've heard preclous little else from any of them slnce we came here. Iremember once crushing a young fellow who was out here, looking for a place to sottle, he sald. He had been following me around about half the day, and along towards evenlng, as L was dolng some chores at the barn, he grew sentimental, and proposed to me right there. I pretended to be awful busy, and I sald: There aro a great many of these young and enterprising women in this territory, and nearly all of them are dolng well, They are highly respected by all and any one who was gullty of offering them any aftront, would find Dakota, Fig as it ls, too small to hold him. As far as heard from, not one of them was ever annoyed by anything more eerlous than repeated oftera of marrlage, which may bs consld- ered inevitable, perhaps, In a soclety largely made up of single men, and who, after all, are said to ba no drawback to the territory. L — HOW LAGER BEER IS BREWED, The 1’rocess Described in an Interest- ing Manner—The Part Ice Plays, Daltimore Sun, Theoretlcally, it's very easy to brew beer. You get your malt, grindit up, stir it with hot water, strala it off and botl this extract with hops, cool 1t off, let 1t ferment and drink it. Practically, it fan’t qulte 8o easy. It requiresa knowl- edg3, or a wisdom rather, that tlms and experience only can bring, to know how long to stir, how much extract to use, and how much hops, how long to boll, and how long to cool and fast to ferment, and how long to keep. These arc secrcts which every brewer keeps to himself, very distinctly. But he will vory cheer- fally shew you the brewery. The malt house is not in uee this year, because he can buy the malt as cheaply as the bar- ley.{ But he can show you the large vats where the barley Is steeped, the long floors on which. the soaked swollen grain 1 spread until 1t attains a certaln grow!h. There are the kilos In whichit is slowly drled when 1t has [sufficlently sprouted, and then it Is malt, ready for brewlng. This he only explains, because, as stated, most brewers found 1t cheaper to buy the malt than to malt the barley. Away up In the topmost story of the brewery the malt Is thoroughly cleaned of every Impurity, and the little sprout it got In the malt houss is broken off by {ntricate, beautiful machinery. Then it drops one floor to the mill, and is ground toa sweet white flour. And now the brewing proper beglns, Into a huge clr- cular tub of sheet Iron, with a capaclty of 600 gallons—the mash tab—it ulldes and a thick copper pipe supplies hot water. Here Ingenious machinery stirs it round and round—how long is the brewer's secret. The color of the beer depends much on this, and no two brewers beer is of exactly the rame shade. It varles from a pale amber to a rich dark brown. The extract that drips from the mash tub after several hours of stlrring s the pura extract of malt. It has a sweetlsh taste, naturally, for the duty of the mash tub is to convert all, or nearly all, of the starch in the barley Into sugar. The residue of grain, hulls, etc., is run out of the tub and sold to the cattle dealers. The extsacts drlps {nto a huge kettle on the next floor below. Here the hcps, first cut np Intosmaller pleces, are thrown in, and the two are boiled. The brewer knows how much hops and how long it boils. When 1t stops botling 1t is beer, but, of course, not the lager beer that choera the weary at five (cents a glass. It has not yet fermented. From the kettle, whose capacity ls 400 barrels, It {s run Into a large, shallow reservolr on a cool flaer, where a constant carrent of fresh alr cools it off, The famons Muen- chen boer is sald to owe much of its rep- utatfon to the cool alr that comes fresb. strong, and fragrant frem the ne'ghbor- {ng Hartz Mountains, But the cool alr alone Is hat encugh, especially in summer time, and so the beer flows overa long coll of bright tubes, which ara kept cold by a constant stream of water. In some hrawerles a strong brine ruos through the tubes, Com- pletely cooled, the beer now runs Into the enormous vats that rest In the three vaolted cellars, one beneath the other, the third belng forty feet below the sur- face. Thick coils of plpe run through the cellars, through which brine careles the cold produced by a fine ammonla fce machine on the ground floor of the brew- ery. The coils are everywhere covered with a coatlog of lce an inch thick, The temperature of the deepest cellar, where lies the beer that has been fermentlng between two and three months, and is consequently ready for market, is several degreos below the freezing pnlnt. Here it s drawn off Into small kegs, and an endless chaln hoists the keg up the forty feet to daylight In an instant, e — The Bpirit Lake Regetta, Sermir Lake, Ia, July 15,—At the regetta this morning Cedar Rapids won both the senior and junior races; time of junior 9:35, senior 10:20. The Cedar Rapids crew which won the junior race also rowed in the senior race, When Baby was sick, we gave her Castaris, When alio was a Child, she cried for Castoris, When she became Miss, she clung to Castoria, When sho had Children, abe gave them Castoria 2 080 FEET IN A BECOND, Great Speed Given to Projectiles— Seven.Thicknesses{of Boller Iron {Plerced, New York San, A little man with a dark moustache, who stosd in the eand at Sandy Hook, dived one hand into his coat pocket sud- denly and fished outa metal cartridge two Inches long. It was packed with powder, and had a hole through the cen- ter from end to end, “If you 1t that,” he sald, ““It woald fi7z away harmlessly, just like a Fourth of Jaly flower-pot. Watch what it does when Ilet It off In thls gun-barrel.” A common smooth-bore, breech-load ing gun barrel, that the msn had bought in town for §2, lay In the sand. It was just four feet long, and had a bore five- sixteenths of an Inch in dlameter. In front of it, resting right against the muz: zla of the barral, was a little equare tar- qet. It wasmade of nine sheets of boller iron screwed together tightly. Each sheet was one.quarter inch in thickness. The little man fltted the cartrldge In the breech, and right ahead of it lald & thin rod of tempered slesl. It was nine Inches long, and welghed nlne and one- half ounces. ‘‘There Is nine-tenths of an ounce of powder In that cartridge,” ho ssld as he got Into a homb proof on the rands, ‘‘and here she goes.” He yanked a s'rlng that was attached to the gun-hammer, Thera was an ex- plosion and then a thud. The little man came ont from the shelter of the bomb- proof and pleked up the little target. He got a hammer and a wedgo and pried it spart. The steel rod had been forced straight through seven thicknesses of the boiler Iron, then {t had been tarned up- ward and broken off. The broken plecs was wedged between the last two boiler plates. The topmost inch of 1t had pene- trated the fiber of the {ron perpendicular- ly. The little man gazed at the ruin of the target In admiration. “‘That beats the record all hollow,” he orled, exultantly. *‘The best that any- body has been able to do heretofora with a cartridge of that slza is to drive a steel projectile through an inch of boiler iron, It would burat the gun to put It to such a test with a cartridge of ordinary make,” He dedged behind the bomb.proof agaln and tried It with an ordinary coarse- graln cartridge. There was a hig ex- ploslon when ho yanked the string, and throngh the peep-holes of the bomb. proof the spectators saw the gun barrel blown to flinders, The little man fished up another of the new-fangled cartridges from hls pocket, and eald: “‘This thing was invented by the man who invented the multicharge gun, The idea conslsts in the character of the powder used and in the borlng of a hole through the middls of it after it has been packed in the cartrldge. The superlority of the cartridge over anything that has heretofore been gotten up In the same lipe is the Immense power it Inparts to the projectlle and the great reduction of the strain usually cansed upon the gun by the forca of the exploslon necessary to fire & projectile. These results are ee- cured by arranglng the powder so that the force generated at the moment it Is Ignited will be comparatively small, and will fncrease continually until the whole charge {s consumed. This arrangement starts the projectlle gently at firat, and then Imparts to it gradually increased motion, and equalizes the strain upon the gun. To accomplish this, the powder, which is of very fine grade, Is packed In the shell in a olld mass, and then per- forated with the central hole, 8o that when it Is Ignited by a primer it will throw a stream of fire downward through this perforation, The stream of fire fgnites the powder along the Internal walls of the perforation, and, as this perforation s comparatively amall, the volume of gasses generated at firstls correspondingly small; but as the com- bustion proceeds the fire surface continu- ally Increases until the entire mess of the powder Is consumed, By properly pro- portioning the slze and shape of the powder cake relatively to the projectile to be used, and to the length of the bar- rel through which 1t is to be driven, the force exerted upon the projactile by the powder may be regulated practically at will, and so as to do the most effective work in any glven case.” “‘Can this principle be applied to can- non as well as to small arms ¢’ was asked, “Certainly,” the little man replied. “All that {9 ncceseary is to plerce the eolldly packed powder longltudinslly with a number of holes Instead of one, and then make correspondlng holes in the head cf the shell, and arrange the head 80 that the holes can communicate with each other. This can be secured by the introductlon into the powder-cake perfo- rations of a number of tubes projocting rearwardly from the cartrldge head, #o that they will rest agalnst the breech lock of the cannon, and leave a space be- tween the lock and the cartridge head. The constructicn insures the fustantan- eous and slmulteneous Jgnition of the powder perforations at their head, 1t is essontial that the powder-cake be hard and denre, £o that the fire can not pene- trate into it, but will burn only on fts surfaces—that 1s, as distingulshed from cakes made of granclar powder, which, though eolid in form, are grenolar in structure, and burn In ell directions through their mass, This method will malntain the maximum pressure uniform all the way to the muzzle, and overcome the Inertla of the projectile, Instead of applylng a maximum preesure suddenly beforo the inertla of the heavy projectile 1s overcome, and safferlrg a reduction in velocity thereby, “‘We haven't tested the cartridge in a cannon yet,” the little man said, ‘‘but with small arms we have propelled a pro- jectile 20,080 feet per second, and that beats the rccard for speed, as the perfo- ration of the boller-iron plate beats the record o overcoming resistance.
