Church Benefit.

Nearly six hundred dollars remain to
be raised for the construction of the Epls-
copal Church, now aboutcompleted. The
church is gem and of its appearance
every citizen of Bismarck ought to feel
proud, and, no doubt, all are ready to
contribute as they can toward reducing
this Indebtedness Believing that this is
so, the ladies of the society gave an oyster
festival Tuesday and Wednesday evenings
which netted about one hundred dollars.
Tonight the Vincents give compliment
tary benefit for the purpose OF helping to
cancel this debt, and probably next week
Helen Mar White, the gifted and beauti-
full elocutionist, will give the church !.
benefit. The Vincents are popular and
will not fail to please-they are too well
known to need even this comment. Miss
White made her first appearance in Bos-
ton and has given recitatlons in New
York, Brooklyn, and other eastern cities,
drawing and pleasing full houses nigh;
after night She appeared 10 Minneape-
lis twelve nights in succession at the
Academy of Music, and several nights in
succession at the Opera House, st. Paul.
She is young and attractive and brilliant
as Mrs. Scott Siddons.
The ladies of the society desire espe-
cially to thank Mrs. Sam Whitney and
Mrs. Sequest for their active and ettectiye
work, and citizens generally for their
handsome contributions. The music alst.
came from Sam Whitney, who closed
much earlier each evening, in order to
give his musicians opportunity to play
for the dance which was successful imam
cially as well as socially.

THE BISMARCK MILLS.
They Begin First Ship
m0nt OF Flour. "

r
The Bismarck FIGURING Mills began,
operation Monday. Slowly the steam was
turned on and five stories of compile GATED
machinery began to move. Wheat was
poured into the hopper and five stones
began relating their floury tale. A few
revolutions and "The Pride of Bismat tex"
flour sifted gently down into the mller's
sack, after having travelled once and again
from basement to roof, through coun less
pipes, shook up and sifted in all kinds of
ways, dropped into one bin then int4 an
other, but at last finding its way through
all the complications into a pdtent

brute creation Mr.. Burt, Benefits BART
ner, is a man of long experience i4 the
business and he; in connection witi3one
or two Minneapolis millers, invented the
machine tor taking pieces of wire opt of
the wheat. 1t is amusing to watchl the.
simplicity of this machines action. The
wheat falls down past a row of powlrful
magnates. Every particle of wire , at
tracted to them while the wheat go$ on
below. This is very valuable inve1ion
as it saves the condemnation of the, kire
band self.hinding reapers. The bour
being manufactured at these mills ispro-
I5nounced by Mr.. Yegen, Of the City Balery,
as equal to any he has ever used. H| has
some fine loaves of bread at his bakery,
made from il. The first shipment from
these mills went 10 the Hills; 900
pounds purchased by Mr.. Riley It is
probable that most Of the winter supply
for that section will be purchased hfe.

COAL.
The Question OF Fuel In tho North:
west Definitely Settled.

The Question or Fuel In the North
west Definitely Settled.
The TRIBUNE, in years agone, spoke of
the coal of this section with much en-
thusiasm, but it has been forced to wait
80 long for justification that the subject
has been one that the editor disliked to
touch. A new interest, however, lis now
being felt in the subject, and some facts
in relation to coal may be of interest.
Bly's "Baby Mine" coal, supplied from
bed on the Northern Pacific, about forty
miles west of Bismarck, is now being used
by the engines on the Yellowstone divis-
ion of the North Pacific and by the steam
Touring mill at Bismarck. There is also
demand for it by families that the COM
pany has not been able to supply. There
ls no question as to the value of the coal
for fuel though its use is not as agreeable
as that of hard coal, but the hottest fire
the writer has seen this fall was made by
the use of "Baby Nine coal. Thenpper
vein Of this mine is three and one-half
feet thick; the lower vein seven feet. 1t
is Ignite of very excellent grade. About
fifty miles up the Missouri river from
Bismarck MIR. Mccall, who was kllleo by
Indians in the Black Hills, opened, four
years ago, a nine fobt vein th.t can be
marketed whenever capital will take hold
of it. A three foot vein crops out al Fort:
Lincoln, five miles from Bismarck and
this vein underlies the higher points On
the east side of the river, cropping but at
Apple Greek. Much of the country be
tween Bismarck and the. Yellowstone is
underlaid with coal. At one point vein
twenty-seven foot thick crops out; fat an
other Twelve feet and atmany other points
veins of a greater or less depth. The lies
City journal, speaking Of this subject,
says: "The fuel question here has been
abundantly settled by Nature. Coal beds
are found in every direction cropping out
to the surface, and the quantity concealed
under the soil is beyond estimate. Sever
