The Ordway Tribune is not sure that a
division of the Territory will prove pan
acea for all our ills. That paper says !:
''Waldo N. Potter, in letter to the Fargo
Argus, proposes division as balm for all
of the present political broils; but just
how that would effect a cure he fails to
state, and we cannot guess it out. North
Dakota seems to. be pretty we'll united us
it is, and division might even spoil their
present harmony; while in South Dakota
there are in the extreme south two dis
tinct political rings that hate each other
far worse than they do North Dakota,
and, should the territory be divided, the
war between Sioux Falls and Yankton
would rage with renewed vigor, as each
would think that II they could extermi-
nate the other they could rake in the

Sheridan's feat on the Winchester road
was a hobby horse episode as against it.
The experiences of Don Quixote and Sir
Hudibras were nothing. But, to shorten
the story, the cayuse triumphed, and i'm
mediately set out for his former home
near Clayton: The landlord gathered
himself together and hurried on in hot
pursuit but this time he marched as an
infantryman. The animal was finally
captured by his master, who travelled all
the way to the river region for that pur
pose. At the roundup of damages it
was found that, outside of several pain
full bruises, caused by the cayuse dancing
OH him, the hotel-keeper was as good as
new and the quadruped was uninjured.
After visit of couple of days at Gay
ton, the outfit started for Williamsport,
the landlord again on top and the cayusc
as gentle as lamb. The "grand cntrec,'
into Williamsport was only shade less
imposing than the departure. as5

1t has long been known that in every
section of North Dakota lie inexhaustiblc
beds of Ignite coal. Our readers will,
therefore, not be astonished when they
are Informed that coal in profitable min
ing quantities has already been discovered
in Emmons County. From q mine near
Walker City the RECORD has. received q
specimen of very fine, black nature. On
Mr.. s. E. Brindle's claim {section s, town
ship 1874, range 7e), while digging aiwell,
at depth of 81 feet vein Of No. coal
over three feet thick was struck. While
prospecting on Mr.. Edick's place. near
Williamsport, Messrs. Hubert and Pitcher
struck vein of superior coal about 81
feet thick. Mr.. Edick has made arrange
ments with the parties who found the
coal to have the mine worked, and the
residents in this vicinity will undoubtedly
have plenty of Ignite for fuel purposes
before autumn begins.

The adventures Of q Bo,,its.c,

The Adventures Of u BO1sifMce.
Not many days ago Mr.. George Walker,
the landlord of Williamsport's hotel, the
Emmons House, bethought himself that
the time had come when he should make
pilgrimage to that Mecca of all the in
habitants of the Missouri Valley-Bis-
marck. So he saddled aud bridled his
bold and bounding cayuse, leaped upon
the animal back, and, proudly as knight
of old, started toward the Capital After
rehearsing to his friends in the metropolis
the merits and attractions of the county
honored by bearing the name of an old
time newspaper man, and having done o
goodly amount of general booming in the
interest Of his adopted home, he bade
good-by to Bismarck and started upon his
return trip-still travelling in the cavalry
fashion. Of his haps and mishaps from
this time on, until over half his home
ward journey was completed, we know
not; but it is presumed that until the
home-stretchs was reached the landlord
still continued to ride the cayuse. How
ever, somewhere in the neighborhood of
Buchanan's, the cayuse made up his
mind that, in the interest Of fair play, he
would ride the landlord a little while. So
the row began. At one time the hotel
man would be on the back Of the fiery,un.
tanned steed then, Agstn, the aforesaid
''dery, untamed. would boon top of the
hotel man. The story told by Mazepps
"after dread PuitovAs day. was mere
lbagatelle compared With this mad ride.

Il COgUNrtZlly Shot.

On Monday, June 8. q man named Ans
ley shot George Gibbs, on Sixth street,
between Main and Meigs, in Bismarck.
Ansley had previously hired a number of
teamsters, among them Mr.. Gibbs, to
haul buffalo bones. He had persistently
put off paying them until the men had
become considerably aggravated. On the
evening of the shooting .Ansley was Mt
supper in his boarding house when he
leard loud talking outside, Gibbs saying,
"Sland by me, boys, and we'll get our
pay, even if we have to hang him. z AT
this Ansley went up to his room, and, in
stead of staying there, as he should have
done, he procured a 38-caliber revolver,
went down stairs, and opened the door.
Gibbs was standing there, with his back
toward Ansley. The latter asked, What
did you say?' and Immediately fired.
Gibbs fell, shot through the face, above
the mouth. Ansley surrendered to ti,s
authorities and was lodged in jail. Gibbs
was taken to neighboring house, ana u
day or two afterward was removed to t3Is
residence of Mr.. Shed Lambert where he
has received every attention. MI. Gibbs
is an old-time friend of Dan Williams. of
Williamsport and that gentleman has
Ibeen constantly at the wounded man
bedside since the shooting.

have extracted the ball from the back o,

are in favor Of hisIecovery.

CHINESE VIANDS.

From the London Telegraph.
Another Celestial delicacy, which is
generally familiar by name at any
rate, is the bechedemer, or trepang
and here, for those who appreciate a
gummy stock for their soup, is I'M
doubtedly an opening for unlimited
indulgence. The supply of this slug
is absolutely inexhau5tible, while in
taste and texture it is by no means an
unworthy rival of real turtle. Some
thirty or forty varieties are known to
Chinese connoisseurs; but some of
these are, of course, scarce, though,
except for their rarity, they present no
points of superiority over the common
sorts. Their method of preparation is
simple enough, for tie slugs, having
been cleaned, are boiled, and then
dried over smoky fires. But the great
est care has to be taken to keep them
dry when they are once cured, as any
moisture in the air at once affects
them.
