While fast that night-

.It

.

has been discovered by an Austrianphysician that people subject to rheum-

atism¬

can secure immunity from thedisease by being stung by bees. Thisgives now hope to the unfortunates who

suffer from the painful twinges whichinterfere with locomotion and other-

wise

¬

render life miserable. But it willrequire more or less courage to try thenew medicine. Compared with a beesting a rheumatic pain is a soothingsensation. The really intense effects of-

a bee sting , however , last only a shorttime , while it is claimed that a sufficientnumber of stings will counteract rheum-

atism¬

for six. months. That is wherethe stings have the advantage. Owingto a natural hesitancy about testingthis new medical discovery it will proba-bly

¬

not come into general use for some-

time , yet it is likely that somewhere inthe future physicians willbe going aboutwith bee hives under their arms andthat the tiny but effective sting willbecome an important surgical instru-ment.

. The lines , "How doth the littlebusy bee improve the shining hour , '

will have a new significance when itbe =

comes the proper thing for the indus-

Eastern Endorsement of the Project-

ed¬

Canal at Culbertson.-

On.

.

. August 12th , 18911 , a contractwas consummated for the completionof a canal for irrigation and water pow-er

¬

from a point near Palisade to thecity of Culbertson , Neb. , and thenceto the boundary line of Red Willoweounty. The construction of this wat-erway

¬

will be made by C. J. Jones( known as Buffalo Jones ) , of GardenCity , Kans. , a man who has built sevenhundred miles of irrigation ditches inthe last ten years. Mr. Jones agreesto complete the canal , including a damfor water power at Culbertson , by June1st , 1891 , and has given his bond forthe faithful performance of this im ¬

portant undertaking. The Frenchmanriver at a point near Palisade , Neb. ,will supply the water for this canalwhich will he fifty miles in length. Thewater will flow into the canal in greatabundance since it is estimated thatthe volume of water in the Frenchmanriver is 300 cubic feet per second andits source is practically inexhaustible ,for the river is supplied by subterran-ean

¬

basins which years of droughtcould not diminish , and in the driestseason it has not been known to sufferan appreciable loss in the volume of itswater. A dam will be constructed in-

a canyon one-quarter of a mile fromCulbertson where there is a natural re-

servoir¬

for a lake. This will create oneof the most beautiful sheets of waterin the state and take a foremost placein the estimation of tourists as a sum-mer

¬

resort. At the same time , its mostattractive feature and one which willgive it distinction throughout the west ,will be a fall of sixty feet , spleudid involume and incalculable in power.The water rushing from the base of thefall will furnish power for a beet sugarfactory , electric light plant and manu-factories

¬

ofall kinds which will naturallyseek this locality.

The city of Culbertson possesses abso-lute

¬

control of this power and will beapportioned to whatever industrial andmanufacturing enterprises may desireto take advantage of it. The prospecthas given new life to the commercial in-

terests¬

of the town , stimulated activityin all directions , encouraged immigrationto this point and caused an appreciationof real estate values. Culbertson is thenatural metropolis of that section of thestate. It stands at the junction of theRepublican and Frenchman rivers andBlack wood creek. It is situated on the

*main line of the B. & M. railroad fromChicago to Denver , and is 250 milesfrom Lincoln and 240- from Denver.The railroad from Culbertson to Chey-enne

¬

, Wyo. , up Frenchman valley , isnow graded and the iron down for thegreater portion of the route , while thePueblo & Duluth Railroad companyhas made a survey through Culbertson.With this radiant outlook the citizensof Culbertson have nothing to fear forthe solidity of their city's growth , andcapital from every section , especiallythe east, will flow in her direction andmake her future secure.
