One reason assigned for the rapid ad vance in the value of the land in the ear ner settled portions of North Dakota is the fact that the rate of interest is de creasing so rapidly. The influx of lowar.s and people from Southern Minnesota, who have disposed of their holdings to farm ers from Illinois, has had a tendency to boost prices in the valley. Many of these settlers have lived so long in well established communities that they do not care to go into the newer sections of North Dakota. Having sold their farms in Minnesota and lowa from $35 to J75 per acre and the $25 land in the Red Kiver valley does not seem so high to them. Formerly interest rates were 10 to 12 per cent, f hey are rapidly decreas ing, and in proportion the value of the land increases. 'Realty men are almost unanimous in their predictions that the Red River valley land will sell at $50 an acre generally within . two years. In the recent school land sates some Oass coun ty land brought $46.50 per acre. There is great activity in realty circles on both North Dakota and Minnesota sides of the Ked river. There will be a hot time in the north western part of the state this spring over land contests. There are over 2,000 con tests filed in the Minot land district alone. When it is considered that some thing like 10,000 filings have been made within the last year and a half it will •be seen that' 20 per cent are contested, and of this number it is predicted that the contestants will -win in from 50 to 75 per cent. The claims contested are generally those of traveling men and merchants who are absolutely unable to comply with the law, and many of them do not remain on the claim more than a few hours or one night every six months. They take a chance that no one will jump their claim, which is 'becoming very remote now, since the country is set tling so rapidly. The bona fide settlers are said to be organizing themselves into a kind of a vigilance committee to report the fraud ulent claim holders. Non-resldenters are not wanted, as they will not assist in th« development of their claims and in sup porting the township organization and schools. Tine big social event of the coming week will be the promenade concert by the Masonic club, Thursday evening. Signor Liberati, the great cornetist, will take part in the programme.

' WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.-For the first time in the legal history of the District of Columbia a woman has brought suit to recover damages from another woman jfor the alleged alienation of her hus band's affections. Actions of this nature were only made possible by the new code. A section of the new code provides "-hat a married woman shall have the same rights under the law as her unmarried sister, and in accordance with this pro vision Mrs. Fannie B. Baker has institut ed proceedings to recover $25,000 dam ages from Mrs. Elizabeth D. Robinson for the alleged alienation of the affec tions of her husband, Nathan H. Baker. In May, 1898, Mr. and Mrs. Baker came to Washington from Indiana. Mr. Baker had been offered a position in the poet* office department, and shortly after his arrival was assigned as assistant super intendent of the delivery department of the city postoffice. This position he held until recently, when he tendered his res ignation. Friendship Became Strong. A short time after his arrival here Mr. Baker made the acquaintance of Mrs. Robinson, and, it is alleged by his wife, became infatuated with her. Their friendship gradually became stronger un til early last summer, when, Mrs. Baker states, he left his home and joined Mrs. Robinson. A -short time later he induced Mrs. Baker to return to her home in In diana, where she remained until within the last few days, when she returned to Washington for the purpose of filing the suit for damages. After Mrs. Baker left the city, Mr. Baker rented a house, where, it is alleged by Mrs. Baker, he lived with Mrs. Rob inson. This house has been recently given up, and it is stated that Mr. Baker and Mrs. Robinson are living on Madison street. Mrs. Robinson, it is understood, is quite wealthy, her fortune amounting to about $200,000. She is the daughter of a wealthy man, who, it is said, at one time owned-large portions of the north western section of the city before that part of the town became the principal residence locality of Washington. Mrs. Robinson, it is said, is divorced from her husband. She is the mother of several children, while Mr. and Mrs. Baker are childless. It is set forth in the bill filed ty Mrs. Baker that "the defendant wrongfully, wickedly and unjustly, intending to in jure the plaintiff and to deprive her of the comfort, fellowship, society, aid, as sistance and support of her husband, and -^ r_^ £> .This• signature is on ,every box of the genuine to C%T*C!&^j-* Laxative BrQmo-Quinine Tablets, : Vr ■} Irf \. fy&yjQ3f%r*.. .-;.ihe remedy that cures a cold In one day. of the Baptist church, accepted the call; of the First Presbyterian church of An tigo, Wis.
