Sobool begins Monday, September 5. - Ludwig Reiker of Exeter, made a pre- emption final proof Wednesday. Professor Fetzer intends to give a harvest dance at the Atheneum, Septem- ber 9th. Frank Petrik of Dickinson, filed a homestead entry on a valuable piece of Stark county land Tuesday. The young men's republican league of Jamestown has elected George Newton, formerly of this city, its secretary. Jacob Buchler contests the tree claim proof of Walter W. Ayer, and the case was heard before Register Neal Wednes- day. Stanton Pilot: A telegram from Jose- phus Plenty to his agent here states that he will be on, hand shortly and begin operations at the coal mine. A letter from Joe Pennell, well known to all old timers, announces the arrival of twin boys, in his household. Joe is now living at Yonkers, New York. Grand Forks Plaindealer: Deputy State Statistician Wm. Scott, to-day proved up on his tree claim near Lari- more. He will return to Bismarck this week. The TRIBUNE is in receipt of a letter from Mrs. Blanche S. Spencer at Chica- go, ordering copies of Sunday's issue, and any others which relate to the Spencer exposure. Mr. John H. Fleming of Man dan, and Miss Lottie M. Rose, were married on the 17th inst., at Normal, 111. The couple have returned to Mandan, which own they will make their future home. Company D, of the Minnesota militia, who have been taking in the sights of Yellowstone park for several weeks, under oharge of Captain Bean, passed through Sunday evening on the return trip. Sergeant Daly who has been clerk at Camp Hancook, left Friday morning for Fort Yates, to which point he has been ordered to relieve Sergeant Hoff, •who will take Mr. Daly's place at this station. Burleigh county Beems to have es- caped the frost, wbich was experienced at points farther east. Farmers from all sections of the county report no frost, and the weather very favorable for harvesting. Private advices from Fort Berthold say that Doctor Price, who was shot by Bill Clark at Dwyer's place near Coal Harbor, is better and that unless some complicating feature arises, his ultimate recovery is assured. Reports of death and destruction from lightning come from Cannon Ball. Four Indians and five ponies were killed, and two ferry boats sunk. The storm was dangerously electrical and unsurpassed in its violence. Mr. Frank Jones came in from eastern Burleigh to make final proof to his valuable homestead situated near Dris- col. Mr- George King, a Kidder county commissioner, and Mr. Paul Leddie ac- companied him as witness. Judge Chase: I have been out to see my wheat, whioh was reported badly damaged by hail. The damage was con- siderable, but not so bad as I expected. I found an application for a marriage license awaiting me on my return. Alfred Burnei who was so unfortunate as to lose his left arm through accident, and who is now at the hospital is clad cap-a-pie in new and stylish garments, the gift of Major Murphy from Fort Berthold. The major is nothing if not generous. The county funding account now has a balance of $2,314.59. The amount re- ceived from the bonds recently floated, and from accrued interest was $66,242, 'bnd bonds and warrants have been re- deemed and interest paid to the amount of 163,927.41. Ten public nuisances complete the list of those who have paid into the city treasury $40 each, for being in existence. This makes $400 added to the city's revenue, and swells the city's balance to a considerable extent. Let the good "work go OB. Fargo Argus: Reverend Eugene May and Messrs. Ogden and Stimmel re- turned last evening from a trip to Devils Lake, one of the contesting points for the annual Chautauqua summer as- sembly. The committee will next visit Valley City. A writ of error has been issued in the Hazledahl case, Hazledahl is the eleva- tor agent, who received six months for crookedness in his handling of funds. He has already served one month, and his time will be nearly oat before the case can be argued. The Walsh county Record says that Miss Nellie McDonald of Bismarck, was in the city last week canvassing for a Dakota book, "Once Their Home" of which she sold forty copies. The work is that of Mrs. Holley which is descrip- tive of the Dakotas. M. Glineburg was around town yester- day, with a petition for aid in the case of Mrs. Nelson, whose hqsband met such a sudden death last Sunday. The re- sponses to the petition were generous, and at about 6 o'clock last evening, nearly tlOO had been collected. Mrs. . . Nelson is in delicate health, and though willing, is physically unable to work, and the sum subscribed will be a godsend to her. Col. Miller, commander of the First Regiment D. N. G., orders that the non- commissioned staff of the First infantry wear the usual badge of mourning for thirty days as a token of respect to the memories of Sergeant B- E. Cole, who was killed at Devils Lake two weeks ago. Bismarck may well congratulate her- self upon her peculiar exemption from the burglaries, highway robberies and other depredations which others of North Dakota's cities are suffering at present. Bismarck, according to all reports, is one of the most orderly oities in the state. Gerald Pierce: The Fargo papers, for some reason, seem extremely anx- ious to insist upon my opposition to Governor Burke. I am a republican- disappointed at times—but always for the republican ticket. I hope that is the kind of republicanism that has the Fargo press in hand. F. W. Cathro: I can't tell just what the committee will do, but from all re- ports and the offer made by Devils Lake, I think that city will get the Chautauqua location. Some prefer De- troit Lake, but it is advisable, I think, to keep the location for the assembly within the state. W. A. Falconer: If twenty gameB, at a profit of 815 each will get the base ball association out of debt, how many games, wherein is a loss of $20.40 each will do the same thing? This is a problem on which I have been studying since we figured up the receipts and disbursements con- sequent upon the Yates game. . From the state tuition fund, which has been apportioned among the several counties, Burleigh gets from the interest and income fund $713.30, or 70o each for 1,019 children; and from the fine and tax fund $1,375.65, or $1.35 for each child, making the total amount received by the county $2,088.95—82.05 for each child- Senator McGillivray passed through Friday morning, enroute home from Fargo, where he has been looking after his trotter, in course of training there. The senator says the horse is in fine shape, can get over the ground in less than 2:30, and that he will be shipped to Hamline, to-day, to enter the Minnesota circuit. C. H. Phelps is doing an extensive business in the enlargement of photo- graphs. Some of the pictures, when compared with the originals, are such true copies that one cannot repress his admiration. Mr. Phelps is receiving orders from Dickinson, Glen Ullin, Glen- dive, and many places in this state and Montana. J. H. Marshall: I have now an excel- lent variety of grasses and grain, and am still gathering more. The wet weather has ruined many excellent varie- ties, they having wilted after it became warm again. I have a table twenty feet wide and forty feet long covered with grasses of all kinds, and am not nearly through yet. The postoffice authorities have re- ceived a communication from the oivil service commission, requesting them to make an effort to induce more persons to compete in the examinations. The civil service is poorly represented from this state, and an attempt is being made to increase the dumber of those to take examinations. The hail of laet Saturday did great damage to crops in the vicinity of Mc- Kenzie. While some of the grain had been harvested, a great deal was still standing, and this considerable damage was done. The storm seemed worse in that vicinity than it was east or west of there, for Logan township farmers re- port the damage very slight. Charles Chamberlain brought in yes- terday from his farm four miles north of the oity, a sample of wheat, which for heaviness and excellence of quality sur- passes anything yet seen. Mr, Cham- berlain says he h&B thirty acreB of wheat whioh will average twenty-five bushels to the aore, and that his yield will . be greater than that of last year. Ed. Sloan: Things are lively at the landing, and work on barges is progress- ing rapidly. The water works are in good running order again, both the reservoirs have been cleaned out, and are full of water, so there is no danger of any shortage in the supply. The mosquitoes have all left, gone to seek new fields for their operations. J. H. Marshall has received from Man- ager Diokey of the World's Fair a. com- mission, asking as to whether there is any tobacco raised in Burleigh county. Mr. Marshall is unable to say as to this, and wishes any one who can furnish the desired information to leave a written statement of the place it is grown and the amount, if any, which is raided in the county. Minneapolis Tribune: "I am just getting back from the Denver conclave," said W. T. Perkins of Bismarok, N. D., to a Tribune reporter at the Nicollet, Saturday. "I stayed to visit some of the points of interest in the Centennial state and then went on to Salt Lake City, spending three days there. TheGeri tiles are in the ascendancy politically in Utah. The Mormons, however, equal them in number and are looking for an opportunity to take the , reins "again, This opportunity may come soon if the Gentiles split on party lines, as now seems likely. D. M. Holmes and Ed. Kingsland, two of the Grand Forks men who were at Denver, purchased a pair of mountain burros and propose to add burro raising to the list of North Da- kota industries." E. Wells, one of the prosperous farm- ers of Emmons county, who was in the oity Wednesday, Btates that the harvesting in the western part of the county is about finished. In the vicinity of Williamsport, farmers are from ten days to two weeks later in their harvest- ing. No frost was experienced there, and the crop is satisfactory, indeed. A. N. Leslie: The aotual loss to the association was not $20.40, as appeared in the TRIBUNE of yesterday, but $14.10. The cause of this difference was the re- duction in the hotel fare of the Yates team, made by Proprietor Beardsley of the Western, the kindness of whose ac- tion in the matter we appreciate highly, and whom we desire to thank most sin- cerely. A. Currie: There are two mules turned in by the assessors from Mercer county, at a valuation of $20 each. They will have to be raised 150 per cent., in order to effect the equalization, and it seems laughable that two poor, scrawny, worn out mules, the only ones of which Mercer county can boast, should be raised so much. It is discouraging to the mule industry. / A special telegram from Newark, N. J., under date of the 27th inst., says that the North Dakota Milling com- pany, with a capital of $750,000,, of which $400,000 is paid up, has been in- corporated there. The company pro- pose to make, buy and sell flour. The incorporators are John M. Turner of Mandan, N. D.; George M. Keasby of Newark, and David B. Kearney of Har- rison. Johnny Schmidt, the little fellow who is employed by Gerald Pieroe as herder, was thrown from his pony, Wednesday, and had his leg broken, just above the ankle. Doctor Porter set the broken limb, and the boy displayed the usual North Dakota grit during the operation. After the bone was-once more in place he declared that "it didn't hurt at all," and at latest accounts was resting quite easily. Mandan Times: It is probable that the Sitting Bull cabin will be taken to the Minnesota state fair which opens at Hamline on September 5th. The mana- gers of the fair have written to Messrs. Wickham and Thorberg offering them most favorable terms. If it is decided to take the cabin down it will be accom- panied by Red Tomahawk, the police- men who killed Sitting Bull, and also his son. Fargo Forum: W- H. Fallon of the Bismarck signal service, spent to-day in Fargo on his return from the east. He visited the Forum office and went out to the agricultural college. Mr. Fallon has the North Dakota service in such shape that it gives much better satisfaction than ever before. He says that among all his correspondents there is none more prompt or reliable than Judge Peter Ross of Wild Rice. Dickinson Press: Judge Winchester haB notified the clerk of the Stark ooun- ty court to postpone the September term of the district court to December 5th, at 2 p. m. This step is taken because the regular term comes in the midst of the busiest season for farmers and stook- n. The judge would hold court in Dickinson in November, but that month is taken up with the regular terms in Mandan and Bismarok. Grand Forks Plaindealer: A package received by the chamber of commerce to-day from Governor Burke contains a "Welcome" for the reciprocity conven- tion, in the shape of a star, about five feet in diameter, constructed of many different kinds of grains and grasses dexterously woven together and artis- tically arranged, with the word "Wel- come" in the centre. "Farmer" Wal- lace of Bismarck, arranged the beautiful design. Rev. J. R. Deckardt I have just re- turned from a trip through the Red River valley, and have driven overland through that Section about 200 mileb in all- Farmers are all buBy with harvest- ing, and between Grand Forks and Fargo grain is about three-fourths in the shock. There is noticeable a general sentiment of satisfaction, and though grain in some places is light, the average is good and farmers have no just cause for complaint. The Fargo Forum speaks of the good investment made by Jud LaMoure a few years ago. He took out a tontine policy in the New York Life Insurance Co. a few years ago. The other day he was paid $10,000 by the agent of the com- pany, together with accumulations of something like $3,OOQ in addition. This is the company Gerald Pierce of this oity represents, and Jud's experience can "be repeated by all who have the sagacity to "catch on." The thoughts of the children now be- gin to turn to school books and slates; to saddening visions of blackboards and crayons, of unlearned lessons and fear- inspiring teachers. .They think long- ingly of the vacation which is almost over, and wish it could begin over again. The older 'pnpils are perhaps glad .that school is to begin, soon, as they are pleated ib the renewal of old acquaint- ance*, and feeltoady to take bold of their studies with a renewed interest, but the small boy who looks forward with delight to the olose of the summer's vaoatiOn and the opening of sohool, and who longs with a wild yearning to wade into his books and learn all the letters off the pages, is a rara' avis. He exists mostly in story books, and when one is found in real life, be usually dies before becoming old enough'to make his mark in the world. O. H. Phelps: I was at one time well acquainted with the Borden family, knew the ones who were killed, and have often oonversed with Lisfeie, who now on trial. I cannot believe that ehe is guilty of such a crime as is charged. I see that your paper is read everywhere, and this morning received a letter from a resident of Duluth, saying that he had heard an account of the Bismarok fire in the TRIBUNE, and ask- ing me to send him a copy. There is a maroon colored odor notice- able, in fact it is so pronounced as to be almost audible, whichllurks about the immediate vicinity of Ninth and Broad- way. The smell is so distinct and powerful that it defies description. One simply stands and stares open mouthed when he inhales a whiff of the odorifer- ous fragrance. The residents of that seotion of the c\ty should receive pre- miums for existing there. A little dis- infection would be commendabje. Mail agent on the Northern Pacific in Fargo Republican: The hoboes along the Northern Pacific through North Da- kota are worse than I ever saw them. They are as thick as bees in a hive out west of here, especially in Valley City, Jamestown and Mandan. We have an extra mail car that has been standing in the yard at Mandan for some time, and yesterday when I went to fix it up to send it out west I found that the hoboes had taken complete-possession and were living in it. Mrs. Clara S. Hays, professor of do- mestic learning in our state agricultural college last year spent six weeks as chief assistant to Mrs- Emma P. Lewis, at the very successful cooking school at the Central Chautauqua in New York. She had also one year's experience in the in- dustrial school in Boston, Mass., and is one of the only two women who hold a college degree in domestic economy (M. D. E-), having taken a ppst graduate course under Mrs. Ewing at the Iowa Agricultural college. North Dakota is justly proud of Mrs. Hays. vV. H. Fallon: Although busy, most of the time, I enjoyed my trip very much indeed. I stopped at Fargo, and visited the experiment farm, which is cared for by the agricultural college authorities. The wheat there will thresh thirty-five to forty bushels to the acre. This is the result of scientific farming, and shows what can be done in the state, although, of course, it would be impossible for the more extensive farmers to expend so great an amount of labor on their farms, as has been expended on this one. Jamestown Alert: The suioide club has a genuine recruit, for Hon. E. T, Kearney's grievance is incurable. He has decided to out loose from his' old poli- tical associations and make red war on the demoeratio legislative ticket in Stuts- man county. Mr. Kearney says he is not angry because he was not nominated himself, but at the manner in which he was not nominated. E^earney will not run as an in- dependent candidate and thus seek a personal satisfaction, tie will simply hang, draw and quarter the democratic nomiuees, as a matter of party discipline. Mr. John JohnBon and Miss Flora M. Osborne were married Tuesday. Mr. Johnson is well-known to all as the popular and obliging salesman of Oscar H. Will. He is a young man of sterling worth, good habits and is respected by all who know him. Miss Osborne is the step-daughter of Barney Flynn, and is a young lady .of many enviable qualities, and possesses a kind and lovable dispo- sition. Congratulations and .good wishes poured in upon the happv couple from all sides. They will reside in the neat and commodious dwelling, recently erected by the groom, on Eighth and avenue A. * Washburn Leader: Our old and highly esteemed friend Henry S. Wood has purchased the Steele > Ozone, pub- lished at the county Beat of Kidder county, and this week will take formal charge of the paper. Mr. Wood is an old, experienfeed newspaper man, and possesses the ability to give the people of Kidder county a first-class journal. Mr. Wood will assooiate with him in the pub- lication of the Ozone, Mr. August John- son, a young man of excellent habits, who learned the printer's trade in -this town, and who for- the past eighteen months has been employed on the Bis- marck Tribune. The fact that both Wood and Johnson are praotioal printers will insure them success in their journal istic venture. Ed. Patterson has made arrangements with the-Minneapolis delegation asto the three great fistio encounters at New OrleanB, that anyBismarckers who may wish to attend may take passage. With them. There will one car leave Minne- apolis, in oharge of Professor Donald- son, on the 2d of September. Thi^ will connect with the special train from Chi cago to the fight. A special fare of 884»50 from Minneapolis been - ar ranged, thus placing within the reaoh'oL anyone an opportunity to witness the fight at a reasonable expense. : There Highest of all in Leavening Power.—Latest U. S. Gov't Report || .j ABSOLUTELY PURE are three or four Bismarckers who have expressed their intentions to go, and' if anyone else decides to journey to slug- ging land, lie should notify Ed. before Saturday next. The following changes in the several assessed values of live stock will be made by the county auditor, that the values shall agree with the equalized values made by the state board: horses under three years old are raised 10 percent.; no change in horses three years old and over; cattle under two years old are lowered 10 per cent-; cows two years old and over are lowered 5 per cent.; all other cattle are raised 25 per cent.; mules and asses are raised 55 per cent.; sheep are lowered 10 per cent., and hogs 20 per cent. It was a genuine surprise to most of. the residents of the city, when H. E. B&rnum, the popular proprietor of La Bon Ton stepped from the train, accom- panied by a lady, who were registered afterward at the Sheridan as Mr. and Mrs. H. E. Barnum. "Barney" plead guilty when accused, and stated that he was married on last Thursday. Con- gratulations were in order, and they were numerous and hearty. Mr. and Mrs. Barnum will remain residents of the oity, and. will move into a dwelling house as'soon as one oan be secured. Emmons County Record: In a letter from Mrs. F. J. Brown, formerly of Ex- eter, but now of Bismarck, to an Em- mons county lady, she says: "I have suffered much since I saw you last. My hearing is better, but I am not nearly as well as I was a month ago. I cough terribly and have choking spells. The doctors call it catarrhal consumption. I am doctoring all the time. I am afraid that when winter comes' I shall be down again. Little Icy Fraleigh is falling fast. She was better last spring when the warm weather came, but is now sinking rap- idly." Last Sabbath, while Duncan Mc- Gillis was in Bismarck, his little daughter, Miss Helen had a narrow esoape from being killed or carried away by eagles. She was playing with her doll beside the house, when Mrs. Mc- Gillis heard her scream, and rushed out to see what was the trouble- She founi the ohild with three large eagles hover- ing over her, her doll clasped tight to her breast, and her face out in several places. As soon as the eagles saw Mrs. McGillis, they gave an angry scream and flew away. The child's face and lips were terribly cut and bruised, and her injuries were painful indeed. Upwards of 250,000 acres of fine land in Sheridan county was yesterday thrown open for settlement. AB yet, no entries or filings have been made on this land. The county is occupied mostly by stookmen, the farming element being in the decided minority. From all who have visited that section of country, however, come reports to the effect that the country is a rolling,undulating prairie, very fertile, traversed by numbers of streams, and dotted here and there with lakes and marshes. Hay is abundant, game plentiful, and a nicer spot for set- tlement oould not be desired. There are few squatters in the county as yet, but the opening of the county for settlement will give opportunities to many farmers to obtain homesteads. Fargo Republican: Messrs. May, Og- den, and Stimmel made their last visit yesterday to the contesting cities for the location of next summer's Chautauqua. Valley City was the last to be visited but by no means the least in importance. She holds out great inducements for the lo- cation of the Chautauqua and stands a fair chance of receiving the location. The executive committee meets here next week .to decide upon a location. Several excellent places have been vis- ited and all furnish nice locations, but they all,Jot oourse, can't get it- . It will have to be given to one and Devils Lake is most likely to.be the luoky contestant. The TRIBUTE is in receipt of a com- munication signed by Messrs. Colby, Locklin and Hayee, comprising the sohool "board of Sterling, expressing their regret at the action of Mrs. Ohas. Hendrix, nee Miss Una Giffiord, in re- signing as teacher of that district, be- cause of reqprts prut in circulation by designing persons to the effect that if she didn't' resign she would be dis- charged. Mrs.' riendrix is spoken of very highly by the board both as a teacher and a lady and they especially de- sire to condemn the action of gossips in this inatter. The board regret to lose the setvicesof so excellent a teacher as Mrs. Hendrix. V '•' V, / x p JameAtown Alert: Mayor Wright of St. Paul, arrived in JamestoW this morning with a party of friends who ex- peot to enjoy a few days shooting in the vicinity. "Mr. Wright at onoe looked up A. W.Kelley and other old friends, who man pioneers together in this port of the northwest. Eighteen years ago, Mr* Wright was a telegraph operator em- ployed by the Northern Pacifio at the; Jamestown station, and ocoupied for* some time a small shack whioh was lo- cated near the present site of the GulE River Lumber Co.'s office. He can re- call numerous interesting reminiscences- of those early days, when the Indians' were just beginning to yield to the in- fluence of railroad building and the ad- vancing tide of immigration. The new apparatus ordered by th& oity for the use of the fire department, arrived yesterday morning, and was ex-, amined by the officers in charge of the* department. At the last fire was felt the- need of several little articles, whioh were> not possessed by the city, and they were- immediately ordered. Among the articles are nozzles, couplings, wrenches, etc- The hose which is now being used by the. department is becoming old, and iff- liable to break if subjected to any extra- ordinary pressure. Another objection is- that the lios6 is cotton, very heavy and difficult to dry with the facilities at. hand. It is probable that the city will order 500 to 1,000 feet of new hose. Linen hose is the ohoice of the firemen,, as it is just as durable as the cotton and is lighter to carry and easier dried. A sad looking individual carrying with him one of the most absolutely speech- less jags ever witnessed, made a desper- ate endeavor to navigate up Main street,, yesterday afternoon. He started on the- sidewalk, but it was not wide enough, so he concluded to take the street for it. Main street was just about wide enough, but it was filled with numberless holes^ whioh no one had ever noticed before and he longed with a great yearning to get back on the sidewalk again. The sidewalk seemed about ten feet from the ground, to him, and he abandoned the attempt in despair. After falling down upon himself several times, he meandered into a common nuisance and was con soled by the proprietor. The jag was a beautiful one, and it was responsible for some of the most acrobatic and agile gyrations ever recorded. Happy Hooslera. | Wm. Timmons, postmaster of Idaville, Ind., writes: "Electric Bitters has done- more for me than all other medicines- combined, foor that bad feeling arising- from kidney and liver trouble." John Leslie, farmer and stockman, j of same- plaoe, says: "Find Eleotrio Bitters to be- - the best kidney and liver medioine; made me feel like a new man." J. W. Gardner,, hardware merchant, same town, says: Electrio Bitters is just the thing for a man who is all run down and don't care, whether he lives or dies; he found new strength, good appetite and felt just like he had a new lease on life.

CITY AND COUNTY.

Sobool begins Monday, September 5. - Ludwig Reiker of Exeter, made a pre­

emption final proof Wednesday. Professor Fetzer intends to give a

Private advices from Fort Berthold say that Doctor Price, who was shot by Bill Clark at Dwyer's place near Coal Harbor, is better and that unless some complicating feature arises, his ultimate recovery is assured.

Reports of death and destruction from lightning come from Cannon Ball. Four Indians and five ponies were killed, and two ferry boats sunk. The storm was dangerously electrical and unsurpassed in its violence.

Judge Chase: I have been out to see my wheat, whioh was reported badly damaged by hail. The damage was con­siderable, but not so bad as I expected. I found an application for a marriage license awaiting me on my return.

Alfred Burnei who was so unfortunate as to lose his left arm through accident, and who is now at the hospital is clad cap-a-pie in new and stylish garments, the gift of Major Murphy from Fort Berthold. The major is nothing if not generous.

The county funding account now has a balance of $2,314.59. The amount re­ceived from the bonds recently floated, and from accrued interest was $66,242, 'bnd bonds and warrants have been re­deemed and interest paid to the amount of 163,927.41.

Ten public nuisances complete the list of those who have paid into the city treasury $40 each, for being in existence. This makes $400 added to the city's revenue, and swells the city's balance to a considerable extent. Let the good "work go OB.

Fargo Argus: Reverend Eugene May and Messrs. Ogden and Stimmel re­turned last evening from a trip to Devils Lake, one of the contesting points for the annual Chautauqua summer as­sembly. The committee will next visit Valley City.

. .

Nelson is in delicate health, and though willing, is physically unable to work, and the sum subscribed will be a godsend to her.

Col. Miller, commander of the First Regiment D. N. G., orders that the non­commissioned staff of the First infantry wear the usual badge of mourning for thirty days as a token of respect to the memories of Sergeant B- E. Cole, who was killed at Devils Lake two weeks ago.

Bismarck may well congratulate her­self upon her peculiar exemption from the burglaries, highway robberies and other depredations which others of North Dakota's cities are suffering at present. Bismarck, according to all reports, is one of the most orderly oities in the state.

Gerald Pierce: The Fargo papers, for some reason, seem extremely anx­ious to insist upon my opposition to Governor Burke. I am a republican-disappointed at times—but always for the republican ticket. I hope that is the kind of republicanism that has the Fargo press in hand.

F. W. Cathro: I can't tell just what the committee will do, but from all re­ports and the offer made by Devils Lake, I think that city will get the Chautauqua location. Some prefer De­troit Lake, but it is advisable, I think, to keep the location for the assembly within the state.

W. A. Falconer: If twenty gameB, at a profit of 815 each will get the base ball association out of debt, how many games, wherein is a loss of $20.40 each will do the same thing? This is a problem on which I have been studying since we figured up the receipts and disbursements con­sequent upon the Yates game. .

C. H. Phelps is doing an extensive business in the enlargement of photo­graphs. Some of the pictures, when compared with the originals, are such true copies that one cannot repress his admiration. Mr. Phelps is receiving orders from Dickinson, Glen Ullin, Glen-dive, and many places in this state and Montana.

J. H. Marshall: I have now an excel­lent variety of grasses and grain, and am still gathering more. The wet weather has ruined many excellent varie­ties, they having wilted after it became warm again. I have a table twenty feet wide and forty feet long covered with grasses of all kinds, and am not nearly through yet.

The postoffice authorities have re­ceived a communication from the oivil service commission, requesting them to make an effort to induce more persons to compete in the examinations. The civil service is poorly represented from this state, and an attempt is being made to increase the dumber of those to take examinations.

The hail of laet Saturday did great damage to crops in the vicinity of Mc-Kenzie. While some of the grain had been harvested, a great deal was still standing, and this considerable damage was done. The storm seemed worse in that vicinity than it was east or west of there, for Logan township farmers re­port the damage very slight.

Charles Chamberlain brought in yes­terday from his farm four miles north of the oity, a sample of wheat, which for heaviness and excellence of quality sur­passes anything yet seen. Mr, Cham­berlain says he h&B thirty acreB of wheat whioh will average twenty-five bushels to the aore, and that his yield will . be greater than that of last year.

Ed. Sloan: Things are lively at the landing, and work on barges is progress­ing rapidly. The water works are in good running order again, both the reservoirs have been cleaned out, and are full of water, so there is no danger of any shortage in the supply. The mosquitoes have all left, gone to seek new fields for their operations.

J. H. Marshall has received from Man­ager Diokey of the World's Fair a. com­mission, asking as to whether there is any tobacco raised in Burleigh county. Mr. Marshall is unable to say as to this, and wishes any one who can furnish the desired information to leave a written statement of the place it is grown and the amount, if any, which is raided in the county.

Minneapolis Tribune: "I am just getting back from the Denver conclave," said W. T. Perkins of Bismarok, N. D., to a Tribune reporter at the Nicollet, Saturday. "I stayed to visit some of the points of interest in the Centennial state and then went on to Salt Lake City, spending three days there. TheGeri tiles are in the ascendancy politically in Utah. The Mormons, however, equal them in number and are looking for an opportunity to take the , reins "again,

This opportunity may come soon if the Gentiles split on party lines, as now seems likely. D. M. Holmes and Ed. Kingsland, two of the Grand Forks men who were at Denver, purchased a pair of mountain burros and propose to add burro raising to the list of North Da­kota industries."

E. Wells, one of the prosperous farm­ers of Emmons county, who was in the oity Wednesday, Btates that the harvesting in the western part of the county is about finished. In the vicinity of Williamsport, farmers are from ten days to two weeks later in their harvest­ing. No frost was experienced there, and the crop is satisfactory, indeed.

A. N. Leslie: The aotual loss to the association was not $20.40, as appeared in the TRIBUNE of yesterday, but $14.10. The cause of this difference was the re­duction in the hotel fare of the Yates team, made by Proprietor Beardsley of the Western, the kindness of whose ac­tion in the matter we appreciate highly, and whom we desire to thank most sin­cerely.

A. Currie: There are two mules turned in by the assessors from Mercer county, at a valuation of $20 each. They will have to be raised 150 per cent., in order to effect the equalization, and it seems laughable that two poor, scrawny, worn out mules, the only ones of which Mercer county can boast, should be raised so much. It is discouraging to the mule industry. /

A special telegram from Newark, N. J., under date of the 27th inst., says that the North Dakota Milling com­pany, with a capital of $750,000,, of which $400,000 is paid up, has been in­corporated there. The company pro­pose to make, buy and sell flour. The incorporators are John M. Turner of Mandan, N. D.; George M. Keasby of Newark, and David B. Kearney of Har­rison.

Johnny Schmidt, the little fellow who is employed by Gerald Pieroe as herder, was thrown from his pony, Wednesday, and had his leg broken, just above the ankle. Doctor Porter set the broken limb, and the boy displayed the usual North Dakota grit during the operation. After the bone was-once more in place he declared that "it didn't hurt at all," and at latest accounts was resting quite easily.

Mandan Times: It is probable that the Sitting Bull cabin will be taken to the Minnesota state fair which opens at Hamline on September 5th. The mana­gers of the fair have written to Messrs. Wickham and Thorberg offering them most favorable terms. If it is decided to take the cabin down it will be accom­panied by Red Tomahawk, the police­men who killed Sitting Bull, and also his son.

Fargo Forum: W- H. Fallon of the Bismarck signal service, spent to-day in Fargo on his return from the east. He visited the Forum office and went out to the agricultural college. Mr. Fallon has the North Dakota service in such shape that it gives much better satisfaction than ever before. He says that among all his correspondents there is none more prompt or reliable than Judge Peter Ross of Wild Rice.

Dickinson Press: Judge Winchester haB notified the clerk of the Stark ooun-ty court to postpone the September term of the district court to December 5th, at 2 p. m. This step is taken because the regular term comes in the midst of the busiest season for farmers and stook-

n. The judge would hold court in Dickinson in November, but that month is taken up with the regular terms in Mandan and Bismarok.

Grand Forks Plaindealer: A package received by the chamber of commerce to-day from Governor Burke contains a "Welcome" for the reciprocity conven­tion, in the shape of a star, about five feet in diameter, constructed of many different kinds of grains and grasses dexterously woven together and artis­tically arranged, with the word "Wel­come" in the centre. "Farmer" Wal­lace of Bismarck, arranged the beautiful design.

Rev. J. R. Deckardt I have just re­turned from a trip through the Red River valley, and have driven overland through that Section about 200 mileb in all- Farmers are all buBy with harvest­ing, and between Grand Forks and Fargo grain is about three-fourths in the shock. There is noticeable a general sentiment of satisfaction, and though grain in some places is light, the average is good and farmers have no just cause for complaint.

The Fargo Forum speaks of the good investment made by Jud LaMoure a few years ago. He took out a tontine policy in the New York Life Insurance Co. a few years ago. The other day he was paid $10,000 by the agent of the com­pany, together with accumulations of something like $3,OOQ in addition. This is the company Gerald Pierce of this oity represents, and Jud's experience can "be repeated by all who have the sagacity to "catch on."

The thoughts of the children now be­gin to turn to school books and slates; to saddening visions of blackboards and crayons, of unlearned lessons and fear-inspiring teachers. .They think long­ingly of the vacation which is almost over, and wish it could begin over again. The older 'pnpils are perhaps glad .that school is to begin, soon, as they are pleated ib the renewal of old acquaint­ance*, and feeltoady to take bold of

their studies with a renewed interest, but the small boy who looks forward with delight to the olose of the summer's vaoatiOn and the opening of sohool, and who longs with a wild yearning to wade into his books and learn all the letters off the pages, is a rara' avis. He exists mostly in story books, and when one is found in real life, be usually dies before becoming old enough'to make his mark in the world.

O. H. Phelps: I was at one time well acquainted with the Borden family, knew the ones who were killed, and have often oonversed with Lisfeie, who

now on trial. I cannot believe that ehe is guilty of such a crime as is charged. I see that your paper is read everywhere, and this morning received a letter from a resident of Duluth, saying that he had heard an account of the Bismarok fire in the TRIBUNE, and ask­ing me to send him a copy.

There is a maroon colored odor notice­able, in fact it is so pronounced as to be almost audible, whichllurks about the immediate vicinity of Ninth and Broad­way. The smell is so distinct and powerful that it defies description. One simply stands and stares open mouthed when he inhales a whiff of the odorifer­ous fragrance. The residents of that seotion of the c\ty should receive pre­miums for existing there. A little dis­infection would be commendabje.

Mail agent on the Northern Pacific in Fargo Republican: The hoboes along the Northern Pacific through North Da­kota are worse than I ever saw them. They are as thick as bees in a hive out west of here, especially in Valley City, Jamestown and Mandan. We have an extra mail car that has been standing in the yard at Mandan for some time, and yesterday when I went to fix it up to send it out west I found that the hoboes had taken complete-possession and were living in it.

Mrs. Clara S. Hays, professor of do­mestic learning in our state agricultural college last year spent six weeks as chief assistant to Mrs- Emma P. Lewis, at the very successful cooking school at the Central Chautauqua in New York. She had also one year's experience in the in­dustrial school in Boston, Mass., and is one of the only two women who hold a college degree in domestic economy (M. D. E-), having taken a ppst graduate course under Mrs. Ewing at the Iowa Agricultural college. North Dakota is justly proud of Mrs. Hays.

vV. H. Fallon: Although busy, most of the time, I enjoyed my trip very much indeed. I stopped at Fargo, and visited the experiment farm, which is cared for by the agricultural college authorities. The wheat there will thresh thirty-five to forty bushels to the acre. This is the result of scientific farming, and shows what can be done in the state, although, of course, it would be impossible for the more extensive farmers to expend so great an amount of labor on their farms, as has been expended on this one.

Jamestown Alert: The suioide club has a genuine recruit, for Hon. E. T, Kearney's grievance is incurable. He has decided to out loose from his' old poli­tical associations and make red war on the demoeratio legislative ticket in Stuts­man county. Mr. Kearney says he is not angry because he was not nominated himself, but at the manner in which he was not nominated. E^earney will not run as an in­dependent candidate and thus seek a personal satisfaction, tie will simply hang, draw and quarter the democratic nomiuees, as a matter of party discipline.

Mr. John JohnBon and Miss Flora M. Osborne were married Tuesday. Mr. Johnson is well-known to all as the popular and obliging salesman of Oscar H. Will. He is a young man of sterling worth, good habits and is respected by all who know him. Miss Osborne is the step-daughter of Barney Flynn, and is a young lady .of many enviable qualities, and possesses a kind and lovable dispo­sition. Congratulations and .good wishes poured in upon the happv couple from all sides. They will reside in the neat and commodious dwelling, recently erected by the groom, on Eighth and avenue A. *

Washburn Leader: Our old and highly esteemed friend Henry S. Wood has purchased the Steele > Ozone, pub­lished at the county Beat of Kidder county, and this week will take formal charge of the paper. Mr. Wood is an old, experienfeed newspaper man, and possesses the ability to give the people of Kidder county a first-class journal. Mr. Wood will assooiate with him in the pub­lication of the Ozone, Mr. August John­son, a young man of excellent habits, who learned the printer's trade in -this town, and who for- the past eighteen months has been employed on the Bis­marck Tribune. The fact that both Wood and Johnson are praotioal printers will insure them success in their journal istic venture.

Ed. Patterson has made arrangements with the-Minneapolis delegation asto the three great fistio encounters at New OrleanB, that anyBismarckers who may wish to attend may take passage. With them. There will one car leave Minne­apolis, in oharge of Professor Donald­son, on the 2d of September. Thi^ will connect with the special train from Chi cago to the fight.

Highest of all in Leavening Power.—Latest U. S. Gov't Report

|| .j

ABSOLUTELY PURE are three or four Bismarckers who have expressed their intentions to go, and' if anyone else decides to journey to slug­ging land, lie should notify Ed. before Saturday next.

The following changes in the several assessed values of live stock will be made by the county auditor, that the values shall agree with the equalized values made by the state board: horses under three years old are raised 10 percent.; no change in horses three years old and over; cattle under two years old are lowered 10 per cent-; cows two years old and over are lowered 5 per cent.; all other cattle are raised 25 per cent.; mules and asses are raised 55 per cent.; sheep are lowered 10 per cent., and hogs 20 per cent.

It was a genuine surprise to most of. the residents of the city, when H. E. B&rnum, the popular proprietor of La Bon Ton stepped from the train, accom­panied by a lady, who were registered afterward at the Sheridan as Mr. and Mrs. H. E. Barnum. "Barney" plead guilty when accused, and stated that he was married on last Thursday. Con­gratulations were in order, and they were numerous and hearty. Mr. and Mrs. Barnum will remain residents of the oity, and. will move into a dwelling house as'soon as one oan be secured.

Emmons County Record: In a letter from Mrs. F. J. Brown, formerly of Ex­eter, but now of Bismarck, to an Em­mons county lady, she says: "I have suffered much since I saw you last. My hearing is better, but I am not nearly as well as I was a month ago. I cough terribly and have choking spells. The doctors call it catarrhal consumption. I am doctoring all the time. I am afraid that when winter comes' I shall be down again. Little Icy Fraleigh is falling fast. She was better last spring when the warm weather came, but is now sinking rap­idly."

Last Sabbath, while Duncan Mc-Gillis was in Bismarck, his little daughter, Miss Helen had a narrow esoape from being killed or carried away by eagles. She was playing with her doll beside the house, when Mrs. Mc-Gillis heard her scream, and rushed out to see what was the trouble- She founi the ohild with three large eagles hover­ing over her, her doll clasped tight to her breast, and her face out in several places. As soon as the eagles saw Mrs. McGillis, they gave an angry scream and flew away. The child's face and lips were terribly cut and bruised, and her injuries were painful indeed.

Upwards of 250,000 acres of fine land in Sheridan county was yesterday thrown open for settlement. AB yet, no entries or filings have been made on this land. The county is occupied mostly by stookmen, the farming element being in the decided minority. From all who have visited that section of country, however, come reports to the effect that the country is a rolling,undulating prairie, very fertile, traversed by numbers of streams, and dotted here and there with lakes and marshes. Hay is abundant, game plentiful, and a nicer spot for set­tlement oould not be desired. There are few squatters in the county as yet, but the opening of the county for settlement will give opportunities to many farmers to obtain homesteads.

Fargo Republican: Messrs. May, Og­den, and Stimmel made their last visit yesterday to the contesting cities for the location of next summer's Chautauqua. Valley City was the last to be visited but by no means the least in importance. She holds out great inducements for the lo­cation of the Chautauqua and stands a fair chance of receiving the location. The executive committee meets here next week .to decide upon a location. Several excellent places have been vis­ited and all furnish nice locations, but they all,Jot oourse, can't get it- . It will have to be given to one and Devils Lake is most likely to.be the luoky contestant.

The TRIBUTE is in receipt of a com­munication signed by Messrs. Colby, Locklin and Hayee, comprising the sohool "board of Sterling, expressing their regret at the action of Mrs. Ohas. Hendrix, nee Miss Una Giffiord, in re­signing as teacher of that district, be­cause of reqprts prut in circulation by designing persons to the effect that if she didn't' resign she would be dis­charged. Mrs.' riendrix is spoken of very highly by the board both as a teacher and a lady and they especially de­sire to condemn the action of gossips in this inatter. The board regret to lose the setvicesof so excellent a teacher as Mrs. Hendrix. >» V '•' V, / xp

JameAtown Alert: Mayor Wright of St. Paul, arrived in JamestoW this morning with a party of friends who ex-peot to enjoy a few days shooting in the vicinity. "Mr. Wright at onoe looked up A. W.Kelley and other old friends, who man pioneers together in this port of

the northwest. Eighteen years ago, Mr* Wright was a telegraph operator em­ployed by the Northern Pacifio at the; Jamestown station, and ocoupied for* some time a small shack whioh was lo­cated near the present site of the GulE River Lumber Co.'s office. He can re­call numerous interesting reminiscences-of those early days, when the Indians' were just beginning to yield to the in­fluence of railroad building and the ad-vancing tide of immigration.

The new apparatus ordered by th& oity for the use of the fire department, arrived yesterday morning, and was ex-, amined by the officers in charge of the* department. At the last fire was felt the-need of several little articles, whioh were> not possessed by the city, and they were-immediately ordered. Among the articles are nozzles, couplings, wrenches, etc-The hose which is now being used by the. department is becoming old, and iff-liable to break if subjected to any extra­ordinary pressure. Another objection is-that the lios6 is cotton, very heavy and difficult to dry with the facilities at. hand. It is probable that the city will order 500 to 1,000 feet of new hose. Linen hose is the ohoice of the firemen,, as it is just as durable as the cotton and is lighter to carry and easier dried.

A sad looking individual carrying with him one of the most absolutely speech­less jags ever witnessed, made a desper­ate endeavor to navigate up Main street,, yesterday afternoon. He started on the-sidewalk, but it was not wide enough, so he concluded to take the street for it. Main street was just about wide enough, but it was filled with numberless holes^ whioh no one had ever noticed before and he longed with a great yearning to get back on the sidewalk again. The sidewalk seemed about ten feet from the ground, to him, and he abandoned the attempt in despair. After falling down upon himself several times, he meandered into a common nuisance and was con soled by the proprietor. The jag was a beautiful one, and it was responsible for some of the most acrobatic and agile gyrations ever recorded.
