Notwithstanding the issuance Of
bonds with which to build new
court house in Randolph, the
Cuthbert papers say the bonds
can't be sold. No one can be
found to buy them. This is a lit
tie extraordinary for a county out
of debt. We suppose it to be due,
however, to the fact that the bonds
will bear interest at only 6 per
cent.

We didn't catch the name of

dies. The reply was;-
''WelI, | don't know. Would
like to very much, but, I an not

they smiled a real, genuine
'smole" right into each others
eyes. Young men, look to your

around that you are derelict in

The Upper Missouri Flood.
lSnecial Telenram TO the Globe |

BISMARCK, D. T., March 2S.-The river
gorged at Sibley island, five miles below this
point, last night, and at daybreak a solid
gorge extended from the island to the North
ern Pacific bridge, and as far as above az
could be seen with a strong glass, probably
ten miles. The ice is very thick, and some
cakes contain acres. There are nine steam
ers tied up at the levee, and the escape Of
any one will be miraculous, as the ice
has showed them solidly against
the shore. The cabin of the
Behan, which was sunk yesterday has been
partially carried away and the hull is now
covered with ice. A hole thirty-five feet long
just aft of the boilers in the steamer Black
Hills was made this morning and a sudden
move of the field Of ice this afternoon made
the hole still larger and she sunk. She will
be a total loss. She was owned by G.. Powers
and others and belonged to the Benton line.
Loss $12, 900, insured in st. Louis companies
for 100000 A small crack is also reported
in the steamer General Rucker.
and her destruction is almost certain. The
water is over the bottom lands, and between
the bridge and Mandan three miles of track
is covered with ice and water. AT Mandan
the flood is now within six feet of The high
water mark of 1881. The river Is falling at
Washburn, forty miles above here, and no
ice is running, indicating gorge above that
point. No damage except to steamboats, can
possibly be done on this side of the river, as
Bismarck is fifty-six feet above the river, and
no one lives on the low lands.
The river is still rising.
