Burleigh Farmer: Since Major Ed

with so much inertia, we begin to sus.
poet some clark horse business and
our nag for that race is Hon. Alex. Nc
Kenzie-undoubtedly the best of ell Da-
kota men that can be put up, ii we can
only make the convention think 80. A
man who has accomplished so much for
north Dakota is just the man to enlist
for the whole territory and when he
tackles admission it will come or he will
Ecore his first failure.
Jamestown Capital: Those we claim

through the political milestone, and
whose associations afford them an OPP
p~ortunity to discover the drift OF things
political, which are not visible to the
general public, say and agree in all ss'

War Prospects Among the Powers of
E~urope-The Bulgarian Troubles.
London, Aug. 31-The stock market
riggers and sensational provincial cor
respondents yesterday and to-day have
been circulating news that the greatest
war OF modern times is imminent, be-
cause it is the intention to alle@ Austria
and Hungary with Turkey to intervene
in the Bulgarian troubles and fight
Russia. A great war may be imminent,
as foreshadowed q month ago in an in
te1vlew here with an eminent states man,
out the intention imputed above to Ger.
many and Austria is contradicted in
every dispatch. This morning, for inst.
ance, ne latest information from Belgrade
leaves no doubt as to King Williams
desire to effect q prompt and complste
reconciliation between Servia and Bull
garia. This is to be done Immediately,
SO that within o few weeks all trace of
hostility between the two countries will
disap pear. Milan's conduct will be ap-
proved OF in Vienna. where tranquility
in the Balkln peninsula is earnestly
desired.
Tuesdays semi. official Fremdenblatt
writes in thar sense. 1t trusts that the
failure OF ne revolution IN Serv1a Will
be o lesson to the people in the east, and
teach them to respect law and order. 1t
believes by the arrest system OF conspira-
tors and police revolutions has received
q severe blow. The whole article is favor
able to Prince Alexander aud conveys
the impression that although Germany
may have no special interests in Bull
garia, it is of immediate concern to
Austria and Hungary that peace and
order should be maintained south OF the
Danube.
As for Germany, it is we'll known IN
official circles that Count Hozitied yes
terday had a long interview with Lord
Iddesleigh, resulting in q dispatch to
Berlin assuring in character for peace.
Besides, all the morning dispatches show
that the rapid Kaleidoscope changes in
Bulgaria are leaving no loophole for
Turkish or Russian interference there.

Bismarck Tribune: There is 10
siderable inquiry in different parts of
the territory regarding the status of the
attorney generalship. and at Yank-

Buiting from the fact that ne was a
member of the Legislature which two
years before had created the Office. Any
allegation that his resignation was any
wise conditional is untrue. The cIrcum
stances are as follows: In the charges
that we're preferred against Governor
Pierce ct Washington last year, 1t was
set forth hat he had appointed as at
torney general q man ineligible to the
office, which charges were decided to be
OF no force by the department., and the
asserted ineligibilisy of Mr.. Rice was
regarded as of nc Importance under the
circumstances. At the time OF
the presentation OF the
charges, Mr.. Rice proposed to Governor
Pierce that his resignation be accepted,
but the governor urged him not to push
the matter then. Subsequently Mr.. Rice
formally filed his resignation, because
the duties of the position seriously inter.

affairs, but at the earnest request o!

A SUBMARINE ToRpEDo eoAr.
.ules Verne. Dream Realized IN a Craft

Jules yerne's Dream Realized In a Craft
Constructed by Il Yankee Inventor.
There is now in New York harbor a marine
wonder in the shape of a boat that will sail
under water for miles, or that can remain at
the bottom for days without inconvenience to
the crew, who can at any time leave the boat
and come to the surface without accident.
The boat is the invention of Professor j. Fl.
L.. Tuck, and il intended for use in harbor
defense by attaching torpedoes to The bottom
of hostile vessels, then backing away to a safe
distance and firing the torpedoes through
eicctrlo wires connected with them.

This boat isaptly called ''the Peacemaker,"
from the fact that its possibilities of destruc-
ton are so great chat it renders it a question
whether it will pay the powers to go on con-
structing great ironclads costing millions of
dollars apiece, that can be demolished in an
instant by IL little vessel like this, costing but
a few thousands. The larger and heavier the
ironclaI the better and surer would she fall n
prey t. & destroyer ti1aU would steal on her
from underneath. Whom war is carried on
with such wholesale dest1uctiveness the great
powers will call Il halt, SO that inventions like
this boat tend toward a more general peace.
The Peace,naker is 50 feet long, with a
n breadth of beam of S1a feet, and depth of
~ feet. The bow and stern taper off from
amidships, and the forward end of the vessel
is surmounted by a dome II inches high,
which is set with glass and just large enough
for the pilot to get his head into, Admission
TO the boat is through n circular scuttle abaft
Of the dome. AT the stern there is q pro-
peller and a rudder Of ordinary fashion, and
two horizontal rudders with which the boat
may be DETECTED up or down. The interior is
half filed with machinery and mechanical
devices, including a powerful little Westing-
house engine. Compressed air is stored in
six-inch pipes running around the interior,
and arrangements are made by which air
may be supplied by chemicals. A guage
registers the depth of the vessel beneath the
surface. Light is furnished by the mean
descent electric lamp.

SUIT TO RECOVER $4,000 FROM
DIR. THORMA RSON.

MILWAUKEE, May 2.-Suit has been
commenced in the circuit court of this
county by Mrs. Jane Stockman, of East
Saginaw, Mich, against DIR. Thormar-
son, of this city, to recover the sum of
$4,000, which the plaintiff claims was
taken from her by means Of conspir-
acy 1t is alleged in the complaint
that Dr. Thormarson was engaged in
1882 in the practice of medicine in De-
troit, Mich, under the name of DIR.
Thomas. Mrs. Stockman, who possess
ed at the time property to the value of
$4,000, visited him for treatment.
When Thomas, or Thormarson, or
Thomas III. Schuse, which is alleged to
be his real name, learned of his patients
wealth, he at once, so it is claimed. set
on foot a conspiracy to marry her, al
though at the time he had wife living.
The latter, it is claimed, entered into the
conspiracy and went to live with DR..
and Mrs. Siggins, in New York.
Thomas succeeded in gaining the affec-
tons of Mrs. Stockman, who was a
widow 70 years of age, and they were
married. In year and half, it is al
legged, he had secured 5000, and theI
his victim secured divorce in Chicago
Thormarson went to Kenosha county
and purchased a fine farm, which he
has since conducted as blooded stock
farm. Recently Mrs. Siggins, through
spite, it is said, revealed Thormarsoni
whereabouts. An attachment wa
levied on the farm yesterday by tn
sheriff to await the result of the trial.

parties we're in the city Wednesday, pre-
pairing for the trial of the case, which
was set for SATURDAY., May1. Mrs. Ulish
alleged that her husband was worth 81,
800. and wished the award of alimony
to be based on that valuation. Ulish
was averse to giving her any of his hard
earned savings.
Early Thursday morning, Ulish arose,
and after breakfast walked over to the
house where his wife was living with her
son-in-law. A Wordy row took place in
regard to the separation and division of
the property, it appearing that he did
not want her to have any of it. The
husband of Mrs. Ulish's daughter put
the old man out of the house. Hestop-
ped on the steps and continued to scold
and abuse her. She went to the door, in
order to see what he had to say, although
warned not to do So She had Just OPEN
ed the door and stepped part way out,
when her husband pulled 38-calibre
revolver and shot her !; the ball entering
above the left nipple, and going through
the body, came out just below the
shoulder blade. DR.. Noyes examined
the wound and gives as his opinion that
the bullet struck rib and glanced
around. When he left, the woman was
glib of tongue and showed no symptoms
OF dying. Whether the wound will
prove fatal cannot be told as yet. After
shooting his wife Ulish went home and
sat down near a table. A neighhor call
ed and wanted to borrow tobacco seed
The old man became mad, and said ne
did not have seed and started to go out
OF the house and the neighbor followed.
When Ulish reached the stoop he took
the revolver from his pocket and plac-
ing It to his head fired and fell dead The
nelghbor gave the alarm. DR.. Noyes
found the man lying dead upon the
stoop with his head hanging over the
edge, one side being crushed in from the
force of the bullet.
A letter was found written by him,
after the shooting, saying that as they
could not agree in life, he supposed they
could IN death, and he wanted her to be
buried with him next Sunday. It also
said that as he had outlived her, his
heirs would hold both properties. He
had bitter enmity towards his wife's |
daughter and took this way to cut her
oti from the property. But in this he
failed most signally. At last accounts,
the woman was still alive.-Rocine Ad- |
