passing an act 10 encourage railroads, and
it is perhaps we'll. We have always been
steadfast in our opposition to subsidy, but
were inclined to favor a reasonable exemp-
ton, fearing that subsidy might yet be
wrung from the people if a road was not
secured; butif the sentiment of our people
remains as firm on the subject in the future
as it is as present, we have nothing to fear.
We are'not appraised of the contents of the
last exemption bill before the Legislature,
=; and are therefore unable to judge as to the
: wisdDw of defeatingit I'VE trust, however,
that it will result in good. The railroad
company rave already received sufficient
encouragement to warrant them in the ex-
tension OF the road. A remlnerative and
prosperous trade, and "a brisk passenger
traffic, which is daily increasing as the road
sHears our border, is, we think, the best en-
icouragementa people can give. A country
of free and %boundless resources, untram-
meled by privilege alaws, will prosper, and
in It's prosperity a railroad will flourish to a
greater degree than would be possible for it
to do with favorable Legislation which has

In A few instances, the laws passed by the
last Legislature are good, but if we are
correctly informed, there are some that fall
tar short OF the necessities of the country.

LIGHTNING FREAKS.

Boy Instantly KilIed-A Boarding
House Struck and One of the Inmates
Seriously Injured.
The thunder storm which visited Mime
apolis yesterday afternoon between and 4
son. Beside the damage done by the water
flooding several residences, the lightning
played havoc in the city, killing boy on
the East side, setting fire to Kelly's whole
sale grocery, knocking the front out of q
house in lower town and seriously injuring a
man named Day. The following are the de-
tails of the freaks of the electric fluid.
Henry Keene, young boy ten years old,
while standing near his home on the East
side near the cemetery, was struck by light
ming and instantly killed. There was no
mark on the body and it is supposed that
he died from the force of the shock. The
coroner was notified and after viewing the
body granted certificate of burial.
Henry Day, employed as an engineer on
the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul railroad,
and who boards at Mrs. Thompson's board
ing house, at 815 Third street south, while
walking across the room was knocked to the
floor by bolt of lightning which struck the
house at the apex of the roof, and tore down
both corners of the building. Day was
picked up and put to bed, and at 8 o'clock
last evening he had entirely recovered, ex.
cept that he had no power in his feet or legs.
The wholesale house of Anthony Kelly
was struck by lightning and some pals and
light goods which were stored on the third
floor were set on fire. Fortunately one of
the clerks who was in the room at the time
gave the alarm, and with the efforts of several
of the employees the fire was extinguished.
The alarm was struck from box Al but the
fremen were not needed.

JAIL DELIVERY.

TtvelUe Prisoners Escape from the Count,
J0il-Three Of Them Recaptured.
Sheriff Thompson having gone on short
visit to Mandan, the county Jail has been
for the last few days under the charge of
Turnkey Mat Bros, and the prisoners have,
during the sheriff's absence, had things all
their own way. Last evening, about
8 O'Clock, as the turnkey went
into the jail to lock the prisoners up for the
night be found twelve of them in the COR
ridor outside of the cells. As soon as he
entered he was knocked insensible and the
twelve citizens made rush for the Office.
The Waterman, Mr.. Ohitteck, who was sit
ting in the Office, was knocked down with
heavy chair and the twelve opened the street
door and skipped out. Three of the crowd
were captured shortly afterwards, one being
caught in yard near the Jail by DR.. Calkins
and two others in barn.
The following are the names of those still
at large: Thomas Summers, George Lane,
William Mack, Charles Clark, Charles Fisk,
Charles Marshall, George sandy, William
May and George Laird. The entire police
force and host of deputies are searching
for the lost, but up to o'clock nine of them
we're still at large.
