TEE NEW POST OFFICE.
One of t!2e Marked Improvements O
tho City,

The new postcffice fixtures are now in
place. The building is 24x60 feet; the
fixtures were manufactured at Stamford,
Conn.,, by the Yale Lock Manufacturing g
Company, and cost $1,000. They embrace
799 call boxes, 100 lock boxes, with space
provided for 600 more lock boxes. Neat
rooms are fitted up for the registry and
money order business, and private room
for the postmaster. The mouldings and
base boards are black walnut, With the
body shelack finish. There is no neater
or more convenient office IN any city in
the United States The fixtures and ex-
tension Of the building cost $4,000. The
people who for the past three years have
so cheerfully contributed to the revenues
of the postoffce department in the way of
box rents are entitled to all the credit for
this new outfit, for without this the office
would have remained in the third instead
of being raised to the second class, and
the investment in such an outfit would
have been unwarranted. The fixtures are
not supplied by the government, but are
put in by the person owning the build
ing. The box rents do not so to the post
master, but to the government, and from
the fund thus created the rent Of the office
will hereafter be paid. Until July 1st the
postmaster has furnished room lights,
fuel and clerk hire without any return
from the government excepting $500 per
annum for clerk hire. The office now is
of the same rank as Auburn and Bing-
hampton, New York, Akron, Ohio, Wi
mona and Redwing, Mimi, while Fari-
bault, Nerthfield, Hastings and Duluth,
Mimi, are in the grade below. 1t has the
same rank as Marshall Marquette, JACK
son and Kalamazoo, Mich. 1t is the
fourth office in Dakota, Deadvood, Yank-
ton and Fargo leading it just little.

ROBERTS ARRESTED.
He ia Charged with Fraud by Two
irresponsible SG14iiers.

j. l.. Roberts was arrested last evening,
charged with tampering with the weights
used in weighing beef at Standing Rock,
two soldiers making affidavit that Rob
erts secured their services to cork and
paint the weights after the drilling had
been done. Mr.. Roberts had previously
made an affidavit charging a person in
the employ of the quartermaster atStand-
ing Rock with having offered TO fix the
weights so that $50 pounds would repre-
sent 1000. Mr.. Roberts was in charge OF
the herd which is owned by P. II. Kelly
of St. Paul, N. P. Clark Of st. Cloud, and
p. H. Scins of Bismarck. As these are
the only parties that could gam by the
change of weights, it will require some:
thing more than the affidavit OF these two
soldiers to impeach their integrity. 1t
will be very hard for the Sun, even, to be-
leve that tl,cse gentlemen would be con-
cerned in fraud of this character, and it
will be very hard to believe that Mr.. Rob
crts would call in soldiers to aid him to
perpetratc Il fraud that could in no man.
ner benefit him. II seems singular that
he should call that kind of help to cork
and paint, when skilled labor must have
been required to drill the weights. This
whole business snlacks Of conspiracy, and
Gen. Carlin, commanding the post, and
Indian Agent Stephan, both owe it to
themselves to join in an investigation
which will find the irresponsible devils
who have been engaged in it.

Suits Bismarck.

A Boston telegram reports that the
standard oil company which started a
few years ago with capital of 100000
and has accumulated IN the meantime
S22,000,000, purposes investing the greater
portion of its capital in Minnesota and
Dakota land. They purpose buying
and improving whole townships, in one
instance nearly an entire county Con
siderable alarm is felt in the east lest this
threStened monopoly should prove far
reaching and disastrous in its effects. The
TRIBUNE will welcome the outfit as long
as they continc their operations to the
Red River valley. The small farmers are
preferred here.

CHAPLAIN McCABE.
His Sermons and His Lecture on
''Libby Prison.


Saturday evening the great Chaplain of
the M. E. church arrived III Bismarck.
Rev. McCabe was fresh from jamestown,
where he made ten striRe on Friday
evening. With Presiding Elder Starkey
he held a meeting ostensibly to deliver
his famous lecture on the Bright Side OF
Life in Libby Prison" The house was
crowded and the lecture was pronounced
rare treat. Following came the an
nouncement that the Methodists would
build a church in the beautiful capital OF
the James Valley, and the present was the
accepted time. A subscription paper was
started, and the result showed $1,366,66.
The chaplain preached the first sermon
in the new church here on Saturday even
ing, and on Sunday preached two more.
Each was the best heard in Bismarck.
McCabc is eloquent, practical and i'm
pressively orthodox. He is a fearless
in the Methodist church-Phil1p Phillips.
After one: of his songs on Sunday, Mr..
Starkey stepped to the edge of the
platform and said: II have heard San
key sing to an audience of 10000 people,
and it was not bit better than that He
ranked McCabe with Sankey. At tthetwo
services on Sunday the subscription to
the building fund was announced in
round numbers, $1,000. Chaplain Jack
son. of Fort Lincoln, pledged 5000 ofthat
amount. He has already turned in $4O0,
which has been applied on the lots, and
the additional 5000 go to the same pur-
pose. To his generosity and vim are
credited $500, the cost of fthe lots. He was
instrumental in selecting the site, and
has placed himself on record as instru-
mental IN paying for it, Such instru-
ments Of the Lord are worth having. Nc
Cabe subscribed 5000 for a friend, who
authorizes him to draw occasionally. He
also pledged S25 for Aunty Harris, who
wants the Nrethodists to pray at noon.
Aunty'is al all day christian. On Mon
day evening the chaplain gave his lee
ture on Libby" 1t was entertaining
and historical The humor of the ad.
dress was emphatically good: 1t was not
hard to listen to. A hat collection con-
cluded the services. The Mcthodists,

most serious accident at Crystal Springs

shoulder. This surgical operation was
performed by DR.. Porter, the arm being
taken off within one inch of the shoulder.
Mr.. McNutt is doing well, and was re-
