Oliver Dalrymplo Foresaw the Future -. of tlie Kk-h Lands of the Dwkotns . maa JDemonstnited the Vslne oi , Vnlon of Scientific ArrlcultBre , t'p-to-Date Business Methods. Fargo. N. plspatch, - But one man in the United BUte ever had 600 men and (00 horses working -on bis farm, using ISO gang Dlowi thit ' turn from, three . to eighteen furrows at a time, seventy gang jdrllls, ISO self-binding harvest ers and twelve steam threshing out fits, and ah,ipping two train loads of wheat every day m the thresning sea son.' That man died the other day at Caaaelton. twenty miles west of here. He was Oliver Dalrymple. anl his wonderful farm, which for many years contained S0.000 acres and at the time of his death 17.000 was cei ebrated abroad as well as in this country. . Dalrvmnle was the , original bo nansa farmer and he demonstrated the value in dollars and cents of the combination of the science of agrl culture and modern business methods. Knowing how to get the very best seed, how it should be planted under various .conditions, how the crop should be cultivated and how to mar ket it to best advantage, he sat in hia late years in his central office and by telephone received reports daily from each of the six divisions into which his farm was cut up for ad ministrative purposes and gave direc tions to the division superintendents and their foremen. Even when he left the central of- I fee In Casselton and went to his beau- tlful home on Summit avenue, bi. Paul, he kept In close touch with all parts of his wide domain and more than once gave from there such di rections to his superintendents on the farm as the small farmer gives to hi hired hand at the barn door or be neath the windmill. To those who know how wise an agriculturist Oliver Dalrymple was and how carefully he watched the cultivation of his great farm 1t is easy to understand his suc cess as a bonanza farmer. There were two Dalrymples of the same sort.' Oliver and W. F. They were brothers and came West from Pennsylvania In 1835. They were of Scotch purentage, and -moat canny farmers. Oliver, who was 7J when he died, settled In Fairbault. MJnn., when h was 25 and practiced law and en gaged In a loan and land business. He became convinced that there wn more money to be made out of the) noli than anything else and in 18fi took up agriculture in Washington county. Minn., and seeded 2,000 acres.' Nine years later he turned his at tention to Dakota, then a vast unpeo pled plain. The Northern Pacific HstllT.rl was extended to BIsmarcK mr . brtwPpn , marrk and Kargo there wasn t a mile of railroad track or a dwelling IinTrvmpIc, with the Instinct of the, true pioneer, scented a rich future for the Western prairies and Induced his friend. K. B. (Jrandln. to go and spy out the land. Orandin looked over some sections of Dakota carefully and sent back word for 'Dalrymple to come on. In 1S75 and 1R7 Dalrymple bought from the Northern Pacific Ttallroad nnil from the 1'nited States govern ment TTi.000 acres of land In the Red river valley. Part of this land he acquired for himself, and of the rest he was half owner, the other pro prietors being Gen. (J. W. Cass, then president of the Northern Pacific road; B. P. Cheney, of Boston, and J. L. and K. li. Orandin, of Pennsyl vania. The lands were paid for In Indian scrip ami railroad stock at par, and In that way cost from 40 cents to $1 an acre. The same lands are worth on an average 2a an acre now, but this rise of price could only be guess ed at In ho day when Dalrymple made his first big deal. Few people then believed that the Red river valley land had any par ticular agricultural value. Mr. Dal rymple had said that In the spring of 1 876 a large portion of bis farm- )ria; property was under water and on 'meet precisely the Idea as expressed a wlntlv day the whltecaps rolled overt b' Edison as being the only one that the broad expanse with sufllctent fore; '"' slve the aerial problem. Captain t sw amp a small boat. But the Dalrymples and the Gran- n, were convinced even then of the value for agricultural purposes of the, rich black sol, of the now famous valley. and Dalrymple said that whether the surrounding country should remain unsettled or not It would command a price above $20 an acre before many years. Without delay he set out to demon strate his faith in the future of the plains and for five years he broke, 6.000 acres each year. Practically all. of the 30.000 acres was put into; wheat. Of this farm Mr. Dalrymple owned three-fourth and he was the general manager. The necessity of dividing the farm Into administrative and working sec tions' w-hs apparent to Dalrymple from the outset. He made each of his su perintendents directly responsible for the working of 2.600 acres and each superintendent, finding that the ex ecutive business required all of his time, appointed foremen, who made the rounds of the fields on horseback. F.ach headquarters was connected wltH thecfntral office at Casselton by telephone pnd the central office was connected with the telegraph office at the railroad station. Kaeh division was equipped with Its own set ' Of workmen, teams and machinery. Although the land Is so level as to require much less machinery and power to operate than the ordinary farm, there were, as noted, ISO gang ploughs, 70 gang drills, 150 self-binding harvesters and 12 extra large threshing outfits. The twelve thresh ing outfits each f urned out from 2,000 to 2,500 bushels of wheat a day, and when threshing began on the Dal rymple farm the railroad company provided two special trains a day to haul the grain away as It was ready. It took from 600 to (00 harvest hands to do the work, and though many wheat farmers In the Dakotas have trouble In getting men for the few weeks of hard, fast work In the harvest season, the Dalrymple farm usually had an adequate supply of labor, for Dalrymple's way of dealing with his men was well known among the great gangs that gamer the crops In this section. The Dalrymples and the flrandln brothers divided their Joint holdings about seven years ago and the Dal rvwples gradually reduced the mag nitude of their operations and sold portions ef their land. W. T. Pel rvmple died several years ago and alnce that time Oliver still farther re duced his holdings until last year he had but IT.000 acres In the Red river valley. Hot all of this Is sown to wheat now. for Dalrymple had begun to routs Ms crops to revitalise the soil.

AMCMEXTS T 'CLASSMATES.'' " Not since the days of the spectacles given at old Klblo'a Garden has New Tork - had so remarkable stage scene as the Jungle scene In "Class ma tea," De Mille's great play, that Is booked -40 be at the Academy of Mu tic to-morrow night. .The locals Is In the South American forest, a thous and miles from the mouth of the Ama- ton river, it is a mere tangio -ox tropical underbrush. Weeds, palms. elephant's ears,' vines, creepers and Interlacing tree trunks maks an Im passable barrier. One feels the still ness of the place and feels the miasma arising from the dank, unwholesome undergrowth. The futility of scaling that barrier is brought home with ter rible directness before a word - Is spoken or a character introduced. Norman Hackett plays the leading character in the piece, that of a West Point boy who goes Into the Jungle In search of his rival to bring him back to "fight fair" for his sweetheart. Seats are now on sale at Hawiey's and Judging from the first day's de mand,' a capacity house will be on hand to greet the young Star In his most successful play. "THB MERKT WIDOW." When the curtain is raised on Henry W. Savage's magnificent production of The Merry Widow," the present mu sical sensation of Europe, at the Academy of Music Friday and Satur day of next week, the play-goers of Charlotte and vicinity will have an opportunity to witness a light opera that makes a musical epoch in com positions of its class. Never in the history of music has a production caused such a furore throughout" Eu rope and of the thousands returning from abroad, who saw the piece on the other side, not one can be found who does not enthusiastically aver that " The Merry Widow' Is theagreat est ever." In Fran Lehar, . the composer, another genius has been found who can tickle the fancy of the, musical student and at the same time write music whose languorous melo dies haunt the man who doesn't know the-difference between a major chord and a spool of cotton. The story of the piece deals with Prince Danilo of Marsovia. who Is trying to forget it and has plunged Into the dissipations of Paris. Borne few years earlier he had set his heart upOn Ronia. a farmer's daughter, but his uncle. King of Marsovia, refused his royal approval to a match between the blue-blooded heir apparent and a little country girl; so Danilo was hust led off to serve as an attache to the Marsovia n legation In Paris. Meanwhile, the broken-hearted Sonla, found solace in marriage with a banker, the richest man in Marsovia, who died Bhortly after the wedding, leaving twenty millions to Sonla. he closes her Marsovian castle snd hur ries to Paris, where she becomes a merry widow, professing to care no more for the Prince or for love at all. She treats with cseitempt the offers of marriage which pour In upon her wherever she goes. Paris and the gay life her money can buy attract her, and' It is there In the midst of her merry-making that she meets her old sweetheart.

CapL Walter Tart, of Wilmington, Perfects a Machine That Carries Out Kdlnon's Ideas of a Successful Airship Invention Is Not Compli cated. Wilmington Dispatch, Capt. Walter Taft, of this city, has Invented an airship which seems to J a ? 1mael wn,L'n wor" .and, V"? eemB,to be lit tie ?oub t bu t what . Urge .hip , w, ould be " ' , Z.h Y. nn ln for "1 '."t quire a blanket-patent to cover fully the points involved and such a patent will not be allowed. Hence he is will ing for other airship builders to profit by his Ideas. The principle upon which Captain Taft nmrked was iwiv from the aero plane, and was of the helloscopic alr- gnlp type. He went upon the Idea that IPtinn nronellers moving In a hor izontal plane on vertical snaiis wouiu accomplish the end desired, and his model works to perfection. No sails are required and another big feature Is the fact that no running start is necessary as with the aeroplane. The airship can arise from its original position and keep In the air as long as the propellers revolve. His model shows plalnlyOiow the airship works. -save for tne raci mat Being jr small model an engine cannot De placed In operation. Instead is used strong elastic bands to give brief power for the movement of the pro pellers and as long as this power lasts in other words, as long as the pro pellers swing around the airship keeps In the air. The model will rise directly from its position wben the propellers begin to revolve and soar on high, keeping up until the power gives out Of course, provided with an engine, the airship having a centre platform for such engine, the power could constantly be maintained and the speed of the propellers regulated. Two, four or six propellers can be used, but by all means four would be the least'required, as by experiment ing Captain Taft has found that should one set of propellers become disabled why the other two will keep the ship up and thus prevent disaster. That Is as far as he has worked out the safety idea of the airship. The steering of the ship Is simple, and la not regulated by a wheel, but simply by weight upon the centre platform. The, operator can regulate this by stepping from one side to the -other, or with sandbags or any kind or weight, and Captain Taft has found that the airship will go in the direction upon. Which side of the platform is the greatest weight and that regardless of the course of the Wind. : - - The Idea of this slrshlp seems to coincide with Tdlson's. given out the other dsy and months after Captain Taft ad made his model and found it a success. Edison states that the helUtscoplcN aeroplane Is the only one that will eeive the problem. Captain Taft tried for a patent upon the principle of the suction propellers moving In a horlsontal plane on ver tical shafts, which is the meat of the Invention, but the Idea was too wide to permyt of a patent being granted. Hence, he gave up the . Idea, but he Is wllll ne to aid anyone who wishes to pursue the work and will gladly explain all points to them. - If yon want tle be' Domestic Coal, order UliM-tideM through your dcshT or of lite ClinchHeld Coal Cor jporallott, Charlotte, N.

C0THEAN, TOBACCO'S EFFECT ON THE BODY Smoking In Moderation Hot Harmful to : Adults Stimulates Activity of tne jurain Over-Indulgence An ,. feet s the Heart Action and the Dl geetloa Unfavorably. , European Edition New Tork Herald. Tobacco has numerous devotees and at the same time many detractors, so that it is not easy to approach the hygienic question with a' serfoctly open mina. When applied to animals, tobacco ra sman doses first retards and then accelerates the action of the heart: In strong dosea it reduces the beats and increases the' pressure of blood on tne neart, wnue tne pulse " also be comes more rapid than if .the doses are , toxic. : . Tooacco as used for smoking or snuffing usually contains but av small percentage of nicotine; thus symptoms or intoxication are of rare occurrence, When smoking It Is not nicotine that enters the mouth, but pyridine and other nroducts of tha drv distillation or the T tobacco, the proportions of wnicn vary vastly according to .the metnod or smoking. With a cigar only a amah amount of pyridine is formed, but collldlne is present. While a pipe gives a con siderable quantity of pyridine' When tne narghlleh or the cigarette Is em ployed the smohn is often breathed In, a practice which Is very harmful in the case of the cigarette, but not wiui me narguuen, wnicn is pro vided with a species of water Titer. Besides, when cigarettes are used much more tobacco is consumed as a rule. . , , Bmoklng in moderation does not appear. to be harmful to adults, but it is otherwise with young persons. witn adults tobacco seems to etimu late the activity of the brain, and also to calm certain forms of excitement. However this may be, tobacco smoke affects the circulation, as Is shown by (he palpitations and pains In the cardiac region which it produces, and which may even go so far aa angina pectoris, irregularity of the heart's action Is a frequent feature, especially witn certain kinds 01 tobacco. Often all these symptoms do not entirely disappear until months after the use of tobacco has been given up. Tobacco smoke increases the se cretion of saliva, and those who do not spit swallow their saliva un consciously. Tobacco diminishes the secretions because of its action on the nerves of the glands, and thus reduces the movements of the stom ach, which may develop an In sufficient activity of that organ and thonce its distension. 1 Due reserve is nevertheless neces sary In Judging the subject of the In fluence of tobacco on the gastro intestinal functions, for people who do not smoke are quite aa subject to derangements of this nature as those who do. The effect of tobacco smoke may lead to an excess of gastric activity and an overproduction of the hydrochloric acid in the stomach, but in a more or less Indirect fashion by the swallowing of a large quantity of saliva. Smoking after meals may Interfere with the digestion, since the arrival of a large amount of saliva in the stomach is capable of neutralising the gastric acidity and so stopping the work of the Juice. In some cases an abuse of tobacco may be the cause of serious nervous -dyspepsia, which disappears when smoking Is discontinued. In short, the effects of tobacco on the digestion of those who begin to smoke are well known. There Is widespread belief that to bacco helps the regularity of the bowels, although this Is far from being proved. Indeed, perhaps all that can be demonstrated is that an abuse of tobacco leads to nervous de pression - and irregular movement of the bowels. - As regards the nervous system, cer tain subjects enjoy a remarkable immunity from the effects of tobacco. These people cannot engage some what actively in brain work without at once smoking Immoderately, but they are exceptional cases. Tobacco can, on the contrary, produce very appreciable nervous disorders. Trem bling is a frequent feature. It is slight, rhythmical and not constant, but it tends to become persistent and disappears when the habit Is stopped. Tobacco produces chilliness in the extremities, paleness of the face and perspiration of the head. It would appear that an abuse of it leads to arterlo-sclerosis. Insomnia Is one of its most disagreeable effects. This comes on., after the first sleep and then after two to four 'hours a dis turbed slumber follows. , The effect of tobacco on the mucous membrane of the mouth and tongue is seen by the production of excoria tions, and even sometimes of warts with a slight degree of hardness. The well marked development of this hardening and the beginning of ulceration warns of -the appearance of epithelioma, or smoker's cancer. It forms in the same way hard spots and cracks on the lips, especially In the Case of pipe smoking, the heat of which seema to increase the evil effects of tobacco. ' t In spite of a pretty general opinion which attributes to tobacco pernicious effects upon the, pharynx and the upper air passages, there are cele brated singers who have never given Truth and appeal to the 'Well-Informed in every walk of life and are essential to permanent success and creditable standing.
