Two Transfers Struck by Lightning Yes
terday Afternoon and Instantly Killed.
"A school House Struck.
. There was nothing in the appearance of
the storm clouds, that gathered over st.
Paul yesterday afternoon, to call for more
than passing comment and even when
they broke, the only visible effect was a
slight shower accompanied by few sharp
flashes of lightning. However mild in
appearance the storm may have appeared
it carried dire death to two men who
were visited by summons as sudden as it
was terrible. The names of the victims
are Herman Pilgrim and Emil Nisk, and
they were struck by lightning and instant
ly killed about Ais o'clock yesterday
afternoon. At that hour gang of men
were employed in the grating of Martin
street, near the intersection of Mackubin
street, the gang being in
charge of man named Stelnkamp.
Both of the deceased were employed as
teamsters, and when the bolt fell that ter
minated so suddenly their earthly careers
they were sitting down opposite to where
the men were at work loading their
wagons. All that is remembered by the
workmen is sudden flash, which descend
ed upon the two men and, laying hold of
their bodies, they were lifted up, tossed
several feet and thrown to the ground
again. When the astonished workmen who
had witnessed the calamity had recovered
presence of mind to go to the assistance of
the unfortunates, life was quite extinct.
The fluid left Its devastating marks upon
+La Of hr4
ance of Pilgrim was much the worst. The
bolt seemed to have struck him first on the
head, tearing his cap and leaving small,
round discoloration on his forehead. 1t
then ditused itself all over the body, tear
ing the clothing in number of places and
passing oat at the heels. The clothing of
Nisk was also torn in several places, but
there were no pronounced marks on the
body. The shoes of both men were torn
off and their shirt fronts were also ripped
into shreds.
They were both Germans, about thirty
five years of age each, and men of fami-
lies. The remains of Pilgrim were taken
to his residence, near the corner of Martin
and Kent street. Nisk resided with his
family in small shanty beyond Western
avenue, and his body was taken to Nc
Carthy & Donnelly's. Coroner Davenport
went out to the scene of the disaster, but
as naively remarked that he did not feel
called upon to arrrign the act of provi-
dence, no inquest will be held.
During the heavy storm which swept
over the city about four o'clock yesterday
morning lightning struck the tower of the
Monroe school house, corner of Western
avenue and Goodhue street. The belfrey
was almost shattered, and the tower was
so badly demeralized that it will have to
be rebuilt.

opinion that it will be established at that
point. Among the trees which he men
toned as being the best adapted to this
climate, are the American box elder and
white ash. A few European trees will also
be tried, including the quercus peduncula-
ia oak and the arborescens caragona.

movements in the interest of Dakota

be hoped that Mr.. Wright's efforts will be
rewarded with the most flattering success.

Mr. Geo. Il. Wright, who is employed
by the North Pacific railroad to look after
the timber and fruit interests along the
line of the road, has been in the city for
the purpose of ascertaining the qualities
of soil and climate with regard to their
adaptability to successful horticultural
operations. Mr.. Wright is from the agri-
cultural college of Ames, Iowa, and is
thoroughly versed in the science so essen
tial to the welfare of the northwest. He
is practical man and will be the means
of establishing an admirable timber sys-
tenn in north Dakota. He gave the reporter
the following facts: A year ago the Iowa
agricultural college sent Prof. Budd, in
company with Prof. Glib, to Russia to
discover, if possible, what success attended
tree culture in that northern cline. He
went to eastern Russia and the 18th paral-
lei of north latitude with view to find
ing trees and fruit that would thrive in the
northwestern territory of America, and to
be sure of the hardness of the treestshe
sought portion of the country where the
winters were as cold and the summers as
warm as here, and with less rainfall. There
he found men of wealth and prominence
making a business of tree culture and
fruit raising; peach and cherry trees were
used for shade along the streets, and Ill

THE CIR And ARMY

or Bummers and Criminals Who Appear
ed Before the Municipal Court Yester-
day.
The appearance of the bull pen yester
day morning reminded one of the good
old times when the bailiff had to set the
bars back peg or two to accommodate
the crowd. There were twenty cases on
the docket, ranging from burglary to dis
orderly conduct and timber DRINKS. The
most serious charge was that of II. Hanson
he was found in the small hours of Sun
day morning exploring the residence of
Mr.. Beebee, an account of the affair hav-
ing appeared in yesterdays issue of the
GLOBE. He waived examination and was
held to the grand jury.
Thomas Jones had no overcoat to ward
off the icy blast of Saturday night, and he
borrowed the one belonging to Pat Kava-
nagh. He could not explain the affair
properly, so the court gave him sixty days
to reflect over it. The examination in the
case of E. Dougher, charged with attempt
ing the confidence racket on August
Kleimer, was continued until to-day. A,
Acstrom, tough looking youngster, was
charged with trying to swindle green
HON. The latter could not be found and
the case was dismissed. A. W. Borcher
and John Patterson, charged with fast
driving, were fined SIS each. The latter
made quite lengthy address to the court
and audience and concluded by asking for
stay of proceedings for fifteen days.
1t was granted and he will appeal the case
to the supreme court. Ben Kornfeld and
J. Zalosky engaged in little circus of
their own and they were run in on the
charge of disorderly. The hearing will
take place to-day. j. Lonky made holy
show of himself in Rice park, and as the
court is not an admirer of nature unadorn-
ed he was sent over for sixty days. w.

A Tramp Paradise.

Tramps have been making the vicinity
of Shakopee their headquarters for several
weeks, camping out within mile or two
of the town limits and working all kinds
of raids upon the inhabitants. They had
planned to rob the bank but discovered a
trap which had been set for them just in
season to prevent their capture in the act.
Soon after the depot was entered and plum
dered of 500 in the night, and although
it was known who were the burglars no
positive proof could be adduced against
these Bohemians. Several instances of
highway robbery within sight of the town
are reported, in each case the tramps sue
cessfully eluding capture. AS one man
with $50 in his wallet and some
small change in his pockets had crossed
the railway bridge he Observed three men
suddenly spring out of the bushes by the
side of the track and make for him. Divin-

book in his hand and suddenly falling up

Little Willie and the Old Man.

Little Willie Dodge is five year old

street near the postoffice. Last Sunday
Willie had an adventure which illustrates
the aptitude of the young idea for COM
mercial enterprise and some day, his
friends hope that he may be the president
of railroad company or the candidate for
a county Office, or what is greater still, for
a seat in the legislature. On the day
named young hopeful borrowed his papa's
watch and chain to play with, and after he
had examined the works and picked out a
couple of Jewels he sauntered out on the
street. Presently a knave came along
and Toasted his eyes on the watch and
chain and asked little Willie if he didn't
want cigar. Willie wanted to be manly
and he said he guessed he would
have to go him just once, when the sinister
stranger remarked that fair exchange
was no robbery, and that if he wanted the
cigar he must turn over the watch and
chain. Willie couldn't be bluffed and he
had to 60 him again, so he parted with
the property and received the cigar. Then
he got box of matches and went behind
the house and smoked till he was sick at
his stomach and thought he was going to
die. After while his papa thought of
his boy and his watch and he sang, "Oh,
Willie, we have missed you," in an under
tone and he went cut to look for the kid.
The young offspring was found wrestling
with that cigar, and when the old man
came up he said it was cold day
when he got left and that
he guessed he didn't want any more of the
fragrant in his if he knowed it. Then his
papa asked him about the watch, and,
never having made out a personal tax list
