One of the most daring schemes that has
been mooted in the commercial world for many
years, is headquartering at Minneapolis. J. J.
Hill, as usual, is the conceiver and prime mover.
The object to be obtained is the utilization Of
the immense water power Of East Minneape-
Liz. The project is to erect q frontage of build
ings for manufacturing purposes Of every de-
scriptlon, Of nearly mile in length, running
from Central avenue to the university grounds.
In order to conceive of the immensity Of the
institution it is only necessary to state that it
weuld employ fifty thousand people, double
tho population Of the twin cities and make
them one city, before the wheels Of the ma
chinery had revolved for thirty days. The en-
terprise is on par with the laying of the At
lantic cable, and the building of the transcon-
tinental railroads. 1t would at once transplant
the manufacturing center of the United States
from the East to "Paulopolis," which would
be of untold advantage to the agricultural in-
terests of the West. While the project has as
yet assumed no defuite shape, its yastness
would be worthy successor to the immense
enterprises already successfully developed in
the Northwest Graad Forks Psaindcaler.

Dakota & Great Southern Sold.

Dakota q Great southern Sold.
For several days past rumors have been cur
rent that Eastern owners Of Western railroad
property were in the CITY making arrangements
for the disposal Of their holdings. Who these
men were could not be learned until yesterday,
when it developed that stockholders an direc-
tors of the Dakota 4 Great Southern road,
among whom were President ChIds, OF Utica,
N. Y, Col. Wisner, Of Lisbon, Dak., and Geo.
Ellsbury, Of Tower City, Dak., were quietly ne
gotiatiDg with certain st. Paul people for the
disposal of their road. Last evening it was
learned that they had accomplished their OBJ
ject, Gen. Bishop, of the ST. Paul Trust CON-
pany, and ex-Gov. Marshall being the purchas-
ars. The money was said to be between $40,=
600 and $50,OO0. The Dakota & Great South
ern, as prospected, runs from Tower City to
Sioux City. Herman Haupt, at one time gen.
eral manager of the Northern Pacific railroad,
was its first president. The country through
which it runs is the finest wheat country in
Dakota, and from this product the road ex-
poets to derive its revenue. No construction
work has yet been done on the road. 1t is ex-
pected that the new owners will at once set
to work making arrangements for the building

n Sad Accident,

As stated last week, B. NJ. Hervey met with
very serious accident last Friday afternoon
while threshng. Mr.. Hervey was engaged in
oiling the side gearing Of the separator and
his hand became caught in the cogs and was
drawn in. The hand was cut off entirely from
the arm, and the arm so badly mangled that
it became necessary to amputate 1t above the
elbow. The accident stopped the separator,
and go firmly had the arm become wedged in
the cegs that it was necessary to unfasten the
castings before the unfortunate man could be
extricated. During the entire time, and until
he reached his home, to which he walked with
the assistance Of his brether-in-law, Mr.. s. C.
Fuller, Mr.. Hervey never lost his presence Of
mind, but bore the intense pain which he must
have suffered with the utmost fortitude, DR..
Philip was Immediately sent for, and on ar
irving at the home of MI. Hervey Immediately
proceeded to amputate the limb as above
stated. Great credit is accorded DR.. Philip by
the friends of Mr.. Heryey for the skill and
eelerity displayed by him in performing the
operation without surgical assistance. At the
present time Mr.. Hervey is doing as well as
possible under the circumstances. Mr. Heryey
is young man. He came to Dakota about
three years and half ago, from Bloomington,
ILL.,, and is well known in the community as an
energetic and hard working man; he was in a
fair way Of becoming independent in few
years. The accident, Of course, is unfortu-
nate, depriying Of his right arm, but If he sur
wives, Of which there is every reason to hope
he will, his pluck and energy, with the start
he has acquired, will carry him safely through.
