At the express Office the other day a ranchman
wearing rough suit of clothes and a prema-
turely bald head sat beside burial casket, watt
ing for the east bound train. A TRIBUNE repre-
sentative approached him and asked
taking the remains of some friend east for

A MISTAKE.

After Bismarck dentist had yanked an aoh-
ing tooth from its native haunts the victim
sprang from the cha r and howled:
'Look here, sir! After mistake, would you
have the cheek to charge man for such job
az this?''
The dentist began to look wild as thoughts of
having pulled the wrong tooth fitted through
his brain, and trembllngly replied:
"A mistake! Can it be possible? No, sir;
could not think of charging you cent"
"An right, sir; all right. l find a great
missed ache here" and he walked out in tri-
umph.
And the dentist even unto this day thinks he
pulled an innocent tooth and allowed guilty
one to escape.

PLEASING COMPLIMENTS.

FAEiASlN~ COHA FAI M EN'LS.
1t may appear just little egotistic to repro
duce the following neat compliments but it is
always pleasing and encouraging for one to feel
that bis work is appreciated. 1t stimulates him
to renewed exertions, ightens his toll and
makes him feel that his labor is not in vain.
The brightest literary paper in Cincinnati, the
Merchant Traveller, in it's last issue says:
exit Adams, OF the Bismarck TRIBUNE, is one
of the very brightest and most original para
graphers in this country. We don't mean this
for taffy. 1t is square deal, and his work will
bear us out in what we say
Another: luminous paper Of the Ohio valley,
the Evansville qnd.) Argus, is kind enoughito
say:
exit Adams is now editor of the Bismarck
TRIBUNE. This is indeed fine position, and
we are ged to see that he ia doing 40 we'll out in
the far west. When it comes to versatile writ
ing nobody can beat him. We always said 80,
and always will"
These good friends are assured that their
kind remembrance is gratefully appreciated, and
the editor of the latter paper is freely and fully
forgiven for referring to US as the Blooming
Bugabso of Bismarck" in his last issue. he
will not be murdered, as was originally in
tended,

A Ghastly.PictuTe.

short time since, man giving the name Of
Leroy Donovan, but whom it is believed was a
son of John D. Lee, of Mountain Meadow mass
acre notoriety, was hung at Rawlins, Wyoming
Territory, for murder. After he was dead, and
while yet hanging, the black cap was removed
from his face and photograph of him taken.
Mr.. Adams of the TRIBUNE, has been sent one
of the ghastly pictures by brother living in
Wyoming Territory, but he will scarcely add
it to his art collection in the editorial rooms It
is q scene upon which one cannot look without a
ehudder, no matter how much it may be felt that
the victim deserved death.

Benefit Of the Capital.

made tour of the railroad and transportation
offices and found all departments getting ready
for what they termed the spring rush. BY this
is meant the usual influx of immigrants at this
season, which this year promises to be even
more extensive than ever before. The passen-
ger traffic officers os all northwestern roads are
making arrangements to land large number of
settlers in Dakota, and from all can hear
Judge that the tide will be set strongly toward
North Dakota. The location of the territorial
capital in North Dakota has had q tendency to
make the roads favor that section.

A Joyous Event,

Mr. NJ. V. Wade, sheriff of Emmons county,
believing in the old axiom that lit is not good
for man to live alone" has taken unto bimself a
wife in the person Of Miss Ordia Parks. Mr..
Wade and bis fair bride came up to the capital
Monday, and through the official aid of Rev.
Plannett, of the Methodist church, the golden
knot was tied and they entered together upon
the journey down the stream of time. The IR1.
BuNE joins their many friends in the wish that
heavens most propitious breezes may ever fill
the sails of their life craft and waft it gently
over the stream toward the haven which lies in
front of the golden gates of the Celestial City,
and that the union which they have contracted
may ever prove to them blessing and source
of unending joy. 1t was our intention to give
away the fact that the genial sherifewalked like
be Wade ton when he came into the Office, but
this is no place for rude puns.

WHAT THOUGHT.


Thought she would come to my side,
In dress of simplicity rare,
With a soft and angelic glide,
And rosebud twined in her hair,
But she came with trail like comets tail,
And hustle as big as q cotton bale.
thought she would whisper my name,
Like an angels breath in my ear,
And fan in my heart the bright flame
That has unto me grown 80 dear,
But nv ear was smote with q sickenin1 thud'
With "How do you flourish, old stick-iu.the-
mud!'
I had thought she would come to me
As light as a zephyr's breath,
And her presence as quiet be
As the ominous hush of death,
But she smote the floor with voluptuous feet,
Till the echoes were startled way down the
street.
1 thought her breath on my cheek,
Would be soft as ambrosial balm.
Or the air that hangs over creek
In summer time, evening calm,.
But it struck my nose with powerful "swish? r
And . dreamy remembrance of onions and fish,

REALLY DISTRESSING.

Proctor Knott, the new governor of Kentucky
is swamped in sea of trouble which ne fears
he can never swim out of unless some one throws
him a rope. The Office of state librarian is va
can't, and there are forty applicants for the posi-.
tion. There is nothing very remarkable in there
being SO many persons eager to gobble the per
simmon, but in this case the applicants are all
bright, blooming, bewitching, beautiful, blue
eyed blonde widows, and each one of them daily
assassinates the governor with fusilade of plead
ing language and volley after volley of bright
smiles that it is hard to resist. At first his excel
lency resolved to split the confounded thing into
forty equal parts and give each fair applicant
little library of her own to watch over with ten
der solicitude, but upon consultation with the
attorney general he learned that through some
oversight the makers of the state laws had neg
lected to insert provision authorizing such &C
ton in such an emergency, and he could DO
naught but sit in the gubernatorial mansion and
act on the defensive. If he should mako bold
break and appoint one of the fair ones, thirty
nine angry pairs of hands would seek temporary
employment in his hair, and such an onslaught
upon head which has been suffering from
drouth or some other bllghting cause for years
wouldn't leave him hair enough to bed his ears
with. He sees widows by day and dreams
of them by night. They hide in bis closets, in
fest the Railways of his mansion, slide in glee-
full sport down the banisters of his stairway
and during their leisure moments run him into
some close corner and talk library matters with
him. Before retiring he has his lackeys pull
them from beneath his bed, and in the night he
awakes with scream and after gazing wildly
about the room moment, sinks back, and
thanks God it was but dream, Life has be-
come curse to him, and he wishes he had emf
grated to Duluth in the days when his unruly
buffalo were breaking down the sidewalks and
believing through the streets. When he drinks
little too much Kentucky enthusiasm, instead
of seeing snakes, as is the religious custom of
the people down there, he sees widows of all
ages, shades and degrees of ferocity, and if he
doesn't soon obtain relief he proposes to call
out the militia and order them to do their duty.
1t is sad case, and the governor has our SYM
pathy.
