Delay IN the Maiis-7he General Boom IN
Progress.
Correspondence to the Globe.]
GRAND FORKS, D. T., April 15.-If nine
days without mail wont make one ac-
customed to read the DAILY GLOBE and
Sundays edition, swear, then he must
have lived in Minneapolis mud, under the
shadow of the Pious Gilfllan's u. b.
wings, and draw his pay-But, seri-
ously, can you tell us where the mail for
this part of tho world has gone to. Jo-
cosely, it passed through that aforesaid
city, but the gentleman named don't
handle the mails, or he might stop them
with long speech.
Grand Forks is having boom of a
land mot water, for we are high and dry
nature that to an eastern man is truly as
tonishing. Not fictitious, not craze,
but solid and lasting. Business of every
nature is in the most fourlshing condi-
ton, and strange to say and attest it as
fact, not in any department, unless the
legal is overdone in the least. 1t is true
that every available building is occupied,
hotels crowded, the land Office
worked until II or IL o'clock
at night. Yet prices are not exhorbitant.
Hotel fare good, very good, at 81 per day,
meals fifty cents The trouble is the fur
nishing rooms for guests. Land is nigh.
For instance, an old time friend, Hon.
Geo. H. Walsh. who owns section of
land three miles from town, with SIC, 900
improvements, has cash offer of $780,
600, which he refuses. Why? He can
raise clear, off of it, from SO 900 to $40 900
in hard wheat yearly. What business in
st. Paul or Minneapolis pays such an
enormous interest-30 per cent?
Grand Forks as city must naturally
respond to such condition of value OF
country property, and is the grand cen
ter of country finer than which
the sun never rose upon. Situated at the
confluence of tina Rice Lake and Red Riv-'
er, it has the advantages of a prairie and
timber town both. Wood for fuel is OBJ
tanned for $3.50 and $3.50 per cord, an
advantage to be appreciated by even the
denizens of the great cities. Town prop
erty, business lots 5Ox150 from $4,000
to $4,000, and residence lots
5000 to 5000 according to locality,
cannot be said to be exhorbitant or even
speculative The town has splendid
SCllOOl culllCC duO 'Ciy SICultoulO. NOuA
house. Five churches, affording ample
scope for religious diversion. OF course,
the Catholics have a congregation, in
care of the Rev. Father LIE Hiver, most
estimable and worthy gentleman, and
beloved from end to end of the territory,
He builds, from the little, modest church
splendid $4,000 ediice this
season. What strikes one as
H.,
of transient persons at least a thousand
day, and twenty saloons, there is no
rowdyism; quarrelling or fighting. Not
an arrest from such cause in two weeks.
How does it compare with the towns of
Minnesota of equal size! There is daily
paper excellently conducted, the Herald;
A mammoth weekly, the Plaindealer, and
an Episcopal monthly, both ably edited.
l fearI have written too lengthy for
your valuable space and obligingly close.
Yours respectfully, "YanktOn."

The Usual Story of Wrecked Barns,
Ruined Dwellings and Loss of Life.
PIrTsBURG, Pa, April 2O.-Storms went
over the Ligonier valley to-day wrecking
barns and dwellings. Reports from all over

of Pennsville. The tornado, when it
first started, was of a grayish color

Railroad Accident

The River division of the Chicago, Milwau-
kee & St. Paul road, was delayed several hours
yesterday afternoon, and did not arrive till z
O'Clock in the evening. The delay was occa-
stoned by an accident to freight train near
Lake City. Some time before the passenger
train reached the spot where the
accident occurred, heavy rock
fell down upon the track which

track, but no one was injured. Of course, it
required several hours to remove the obstruc-
tions and restore the road. After this was
done the passenger train came through all
right and arrived, as stated, about O'Clock.
