ital about the 20tb, when he hopes to be able to
turn over his Office to his successor.
Speaking of the charges preferred against
Russell p. Harrison, assayer of the mint at
Helena. Mr.. Alexander said that the most rigid
Investigation had been made by Mr.. W. T. Law
yer, assayer at the Treasury Depart,
ment, assisted by the United States
attorney of the Territory. The examination
occupied ten days or more and covered. as the
testimony shows, about everything he had done
for the past five years. not only official, but
in his private business affairs well. The tes-
timony was submitted to the Secretary of the
Treasury, and by him referred 10 Hon. A
McCue, Solicitor of the Treasury, who dismissed
tie matter with q report of less than twenty
lines, to the effect, simply, that the charges were
rot sustained, and recommending that no fur
ther action be had in the premises. In
speaking of the matter to Mr.. Alexander Judge
McCue stated that there nothing in the
whole affair rejecting IN the least upon hIr. Har-
risen. Assayer LAWYER, in reporting the condi-
lion of the Office to the Director Of the Mint
states that he found admirable system was
observed in keeping the books, accounts and
records, and that although the work OF the Office
had been unusually heavy, owing TO large in

Chicago Sanitary Methods,

David Burns, of the Chicago Sanitary Depart
ment, who formerly lived here is in the city,
and yesterday called at the health Office, where
he entertained the officials with q brief review
of how they keep Chicago clean. One matter he
particularly spoke of was house inspection and
some of the horrors of living which that re-
veaed.
I'VE have the authority" said he, 'to go into
any house, and if its condition is not what it
should be- order it to be cleaned. Even bed
and bedding can be destroyed under our law
if it is less than ordinarily clean
Il do not think our people would submit to
such rigorous measures" said Secretary Griffin.
I'VE need a good deal in the way of legislation
to help US in keeping Indianapolis in good sani-
tary condition, but we would find trouble in CO.
ing to that extent"
''You do not know until you have tried" re.
Piled Mr. Burns. at is rarely that we have any
resistance, and still more rare are the occasions
to force an entrance. When we are compelled
to do SO all we nave to DO is to send for the pa
trol-wagon force and it is done"

PRICE OF SECONDHAND PIANOS.

Determine the amount you will inrest in q
piano according to your means, and the serv-
ice expected of the instrument
Fifty dollars will buy piano Of about six
| octaves, with light tone and action, the in
strument being Of old style.
Seventy-five dollars will buy a or 10
octave piano, somewhat better than the above
One hundred dollars will buy very good
6 10 or 2-3 octave piano that has been used
long, but is still very serviceable or maybe
s. e octave piano of old style.
One hundred and twenty five dollars will
buy a fairly serviceable octave piano, Of
plain legs and case, but with fair tone and &C
ton.
One hundred and fifty dollars will buy a
good octave piano of modern style, with
good case and very serviceable instrument
in the family. One that will give much pleas
ure for many years.
One hundred and seventy-fve dollars will
buy a very good piano of modern style, with
carved legs, an instrument almost practically
as good as a new one, costing 1915 or $780,
The tone and action will be good; the case
handsome and in fair condition.
Instruments of celebrated makes in good
condition will of course, bring higher prices,
| those named above applying to the general
run of second hand pianos.
| Pianos at the above prices may be pur-
chased on installments by paying one-ffth of
the price down and the balance in twelve
equal monthly payments.
In buying piano or organ many persons
have the idea that they must pay all cash.
| There are thousands of families who have an
income of fifty to one hundred dollars per
month who can easily spare from five to ten
dollars of it and scarcely miss it. To all such
we would say, do not wait to lay up enough
! to pay for an instrument before buying, but
see or write us at once for our terms. No
matter if you cannot pay but five dollars a
month towards an organ, or only ten dollars
towards piano, let us hear from you without
delay, and we will satisfy you that we are Civ
ing easier terms than any music house in the
United States. We furnish hundreds of
homes every year with pianos and organs and
take our pay in small installments each
month, or quarter that were the purchasers
obliged to pay the full price of an instrument
| III cash they could not buy one. All letters
of inquiry cheerfully answered. We have
men for that purpose alone so do not hesitate
| to write and tell us just how you can afford to
buy. D. II. BALDWIN & CO.,

WAHPEToN, Oak, Nov. 2O.-The St.
Paul. Minneapolis g. Manitoba Railroad
company in sinking deep well at Colfax,
in this county. has found more water than
it bargained for. The flow is too forcible
to be controlled by stop-cocks, and unless
checked will overflow part of the village.
1t is thought that the force would carry a
column of water to height of forty feet.
This is the third flowing well at that place.
Walcott also has one, which in winter is
surmounted by mound of ice. Going a
few miles east from here we find number
of fine flowing wells about Campbell. MINI.
Some of these. too. have been hard to con-
troll, and have endangered the farms upon
which they are situated. There are several
fine dairy farms operated by the owners of
these wells. The milk is put in cans, the
cans are set in a large trough in the milk
house and constant stream of cold water
from the well is passed through the trough
while the cream is rising. Thomas Myers.
near Wahpeton. struck flowing well late
in the fall few years since and before
spring his whole premises were a mountain
of ice. At Wahpeton, however. the water
pressure is in the other direction. Some
time since the bottom dropped out of the
court house well. and the air rushed into
the cavity with roaring sound. Placing
ones hand over the top pressure was felt
nearly equal to the weight of the atmos-
phere. This state of things continued for
many weeks. At Morris, Mimi, some
years ago there was a similar occurrence,
but there the subterranean roar was so
great as to be heard in all parts of the
town, and the excavation was hastily re-
fiIlad
