tent of the cholera plague, owing to the
governmental precautions, is not actually

Deaths are announced at many new points,

besides risking their lives, stay under very
d%iscouraging circumstances, as they can Sc

THE DAKOTA CAPITOL.
The Recent Meeting Of the Commission q

The Recent Meeting Of tho Commission ut
Bismarck to Open Bids-No Conclusion.
Bismarck Tribune: The capitol commission
met at the reading room this morning at 10
o'clock, to consider plans for the Dakota State
capitol. Mr.. Cast,.er, of Knight 4 Cashier,
architects, ST. Paul, explained their plans
which were designed specially for the Dakota
capitol. They are q line specimen of Grecian
architecture and seem to be exceedingly we'll
adapted for the purpose for which
they are intended. They were accom-
panied by complete specifications, and
tho building can be completed for about $780,
600, including lighting aud heating. Mi. W.
h. Mcpherson of Omaha, Neb., presented the
and those Of the court house at Anderson. Ind.
which he offered to adapt to state house pur-
POSES aud give a guarantee could be built for
$500, 900, Of Joliet limestone. Tn buildings
arc imposing and would doubtless answer the
purpose well, but Mr.. Mcpherson had not had
time to prepare detailed estimates OF cost
Mr.. Caulkins, of Caulkins & Telford, Minne-
apolis, presented their plans, which have
heretofore been referred to in the Tribune, in
the best possible light. They are modelled
after the State house at Albany, New York,
which cost $12, 600. 900. and is not yet COM
be found i'll that structure and affording am
pie room for the legislature and all State or
Territorial officers. The walls Of this building
complete, and such rooms as are now needed,
complete, will cost 1901 900 built Of brick,
trimmed with cut stone and iron cornice. The
building is practically fire proof. Should this
plan be chosen Dakota's capitol will be one of
the most imposing in the land. Other plans
remain to be examined, and the commission
adjourned to meet at l D.. m. MI. Caulkins
paid a high compliment to the brick and terra
Gotta works of this locality, and expressed be-
lief that our home pressed brick would be
found to be equal to the best in the United
State, while it's use wonld save largely in ex-
pense.
The commission met this afternoon and de-
ferred the selection of plans until detailed est
mates to accompany each eau be secured, that
will enable them to choose a plan that will
surely come within the $500, OOOi it is proposed
to use in construction. A very elegant design
was also presented by +. B. Long, of Mime
lpoiis, to cost $29S, 600. A photograph of
the State capitol of Minnesota was sent by Mr..
Burlington, together with a pencil sketch

Shocking Disaster ON the Clyde,

London Special: Intelligence has Just
reached hero ola terrible calamity during
the lannchi ng of the steamship Daphne, at
Renfrew, fl re miles from Glasgow. While
being launched she fell over on her side
and precipitated a number of people into
the water. The Daphne, which was con-
structed for coast trading, is a vessel OF 500
tons burden. Two hundred workmen were
on board when she capsized. The accident
occurred in the middle oil the Clyde, after
launching. 1t is not exactly known how
many persons were drowned, but it is feared
the number will reach over a hundred. Traf-
fc OF the Clyde is suspended, owing to the
interruption to navigation by the capsized
steamer. The Daphne left the ways at a
very fast rate, and when she gained the
water she rolled from side 10 side. The
persons on board fearing she would capsize,
ran to and fro. The vessel finally reeled
over and nearly disappeared beneath the
water. Those who had maintained a posi-
ton on the portion OF the steamer not sub
merged did their utmost to save those who
were in the water. At the same time boats
pulled to assist in the work of rescuing the
Unfortunate men. There were fifty inn
prisoned when the vessel vent over, and
they must have been drowned.
