DIR. Prentice.

DR.. Plentice came to Salt Lake CITY
several months ago total stranger to
most OF the inhabitants of Utah, but
his remarkable success in curing what
ever he undertakes has made his name
familiar in almost every household. Al
frst ne was to stop in Salt Lake CITY
one month, but at the expiration OF
that time his business was so large that
he prolonged his stay. When the time
of his postponement expired his BUST
ness had grown to such mammoth pro-
portions that he was obliged to again
extend his stay. DR.. Prentice is sur
prise to great many people, as he tells
bis patients truth. All cases that he
thinks he can not cure he tells them SO
and daily turns many away with the
assurance that their cases are hopeless,
and in those cases in which he prom
ises cure he always succeeds. So
again DR.. Prentice has extended his
stay until August 10th.

Is w. b. Bell Dying?

A telegram received the 22nd by Mrs.
Claussen from her daughter, Mrs. w. B.
Bell of Duluth, impaired the sad intelli-
gence that Mr.. Bell was sinking rapidly
and was not expected to survive. Mr.. Bell
was in poor health for over year before
he left Bismarck, but it was thought that
he had so far recovered that caution and
proper treatment would insure to him a
long and useful life. He has been suffer-
ing from consumption of the throat and
the disease has gone to the lungs.
Mrs. Claussen left for Duluth Thursday
and If Mr.. Bell is not too low he will be
taken to New Mexico, the family to start
as soon as Mrs. Claussen arrives in Duluth.
No man who ever left Bismarck took
with him the friendship and kind wishes
of greater number Of citizens, and the
news of his dangerous illness is unwel-
come indeed. 1t is earnestly hoped that
his health will return and that the sorrow
of his family and friends will be changed
to rejoicings over his restoration.

Bisnarck's Postoface,

The Minneapolis Journal, in speaking
the Bismarck postoffice and men who may
be considered among the prospective can
didates. says:
The candidates for postmaster are crowd
ing into the field at this point thick and
fast. While no one has openly declared his
desire to secure this Office, large number
have seated themselves in the palms of
their friends and are anxiOusly awaiting
March 4th. Among those who are .'men.
toned" for the place are: F. j. Call, cap
tain OF the Governors guard, ex-insurance
magnate and ex-boomer; Harvey Harris,
real estate and insurance; w. T. Perkins,
insurance; w. s. Moorhouse. hardware: D..
s. Neal, defeated candidate for sheriff, but
from Maine and friend of Blaine; F. B..
Morse, ex.deputy territorial auditor, from
Maine and no flies on him.
Many others are mentioned" In fact
every republican who has cheered for Har-
risOn has been mentioned, but it is believed
that the gentlemen from Maine have the
inside track, provided they pull their
"strings" properly.
E.S. Neal is spoken of for the Office of
postmaster, but as he has married into a
family which is politically and socially very
close to the Blalnes, it is believed that he
will get something much better. In fact it
is believed by local politicians that he will
reach for the Office of United States mar
shall and thathe will come so near reach
ing it that his opponents may well begin

the time, that the tourist, James Mcdonald
of London, England, insisted on making q
minute examination of all the curiOsities
and wonders. When looking at Excelsior
geyser, which has been erupting very ir-
regular Of late, he decided to gaze into the
crater. He went very near to the edge of
the crater and was followed by the guide,
who feared the curious Englishman was q
little too curious. just as both guide and
tourist reached the brink of the crater the
immense geyser, which is $50 feet wide at
the mouth, erupted with terrific force,
drawing the startled men into the stream
of boiling water. Fortunately for them
they were struck with such force as to
throw them back onto the land and al
though severely scalded they did not lose
their lives.
Mr.. Mckay says that it is thought by
some that the Englishman contemplated
suicide as he had been acting strangely for
several days. Since the attempt of General
Howard's son to commit suicide by jump
ing over the falls of the Yellowstone, the
park may have attractions for the love sick
and despondent and surely no one could
doubt the effectiveness of a geyser if the
patient will get settled down in the heart
of it a few moments before it erupts.

A Boom From Illinois.

Mr.. E. Van Houten, of the firm of Van
Houten Bros. & Little, received letter of
inquiry regarding the quality and price of
potatoes some weeks ago from Father
Miller, president of st. Francis college of
Quincy. Ill. In reply Mr.. Van Houten in
formed Father Miller that while the pota-
toes of the Missouri slope were superior in
quality he doubted that the people in
Quincy would be willing to pay the freight
charges. However, he sent sample of
the potatoes and as fast as the mail would
carry a reply from Father Miller, that dis
tinguished gentleman instructed Mr.. Van
Houten to send carload at once. He had
tried the sample and desired to have the
potatoes regardless of. cost. Mr.. Van
Houten sent the potatoes and in acknowl-
edging the receipt of the same the worthy
president of St. Francis college says:
"There is no doubt that the potatoes you
shipped and which are now safely stored
away are the most excellent we have ever
seen or tasted. We do not, therefore, regret
the extra price paid for them (13 cents per
bushel more than they are sold for here. j."
This is a little unsolicited boom for the
Missouri slope products which, though a
simple statement of a we'll known fact in
these parts. comes doubly welcome from so
high source.

December Weather

The weather possibilities for December
according to the character of the weather
condition chart as published by the local
signal officer are, in brief, as follows:
Highest possible temperature, 81 degrees
above zero; lowest possible temperature,
SO degrees below. Number of clear days.
IL; Of cloudy days, 8; Of days upon which
snow will possibly fall, IL. Tie line of
normal temperature as shown by the above
named chart is very irregular one having
no two consecutive days Of like tempera-
lures. The first period of severe cold will
probably occur about the 9Th, followed by
warmer weather between the 9th and 10th,
which bids fair to continue until the 18th,
when the mercury will be apt to take a
sudden plunge below zero to remain there
or thereabout until the 10Th when a decided
rise may be expected which will be of short
duration. An abrupt fall being indicated
about the 21st, continuing until about the
Oath when the temperature will probably
go into winter quarter. The coldest
December during period of fourteen years
was that Of 1879, with minimum tempera-
ture reading of 80 degrees below zero. The
warmest during the same period was in
1877, the lowest reading recorded being
degrees above zero. NOrthwesterly winds
will prevail during the month.

Bismarck's Single Tax Club.

Bismarck does not miss much that is
worthy of corralling or that attracts the
attention of the etfete and languid east
For a time it looked as though the east
would have a monopoly Of the single tax
fiends. Henry George lives in New York
and, while you find Henry George men
strewn all over Dakota, it was little
dreamed that the single tax theory would
break out into wild contagion. Yet such
is the case. Bismarck has a single tax
club. She not only has a single tax club,
but its members threaten to "carry the war
into Africa"-or into the most remote
corners of Dakota and organize a terri
tOrial single tax association, which will
have its effect on the constitution about to
be adopted by the state Of Dakota. While
to one man much of the en-
thusiasm is due, the number who now ad-
vocate the Henry George plan has grown
to very respectable proportions. The man
who deserves the credit for being the
original single tax advocate of Bismarck
is MIR. John Huber, the accomplished
deputy treasurer, but now John A. Rea and
hundred others are warm and ardent
supporters of the theory.
Bismarck has single tax club, and it
promises to make the issue on what it be-
lieves to beIthe greatest question now be-
fore the people.
The capital city sends greeting to Henry
George.

Defacing the Custer Monument.

Among the souvenirs of his western trip
Mr.. Rackcliffe of the Scribner Publishing
company has a piece of stone from the
Custer monument. He informs the
TRIBUNE that this is one of the fragments
of stone which have been knocked from
the monument by curiosity seekers or
Indians who have ridden by the monument
for years have made practice Of shooting
at it, each ball doing its share toward de.
facing what should be sacredly guarded by
the government. So far had this work Of
destruction been carried that it has been
found necessary to re-cut the names on the
monument. The monument should be
guarded.

More Rumors.

The latest wild rumor land the TRIBUNE
believes it little wild) concerning ter
ritorial officials and prospective appoint
ments, is the following:
There is rumor floating around loose
that owing to the change in administrations
soon to take place, T. L. Skinner, Of Terra
vile, has declined the position rendered
him of attorney general of the territory,
ment of Henry Frawley. of Deadwood, for
the Office. The visit of Mr.. Frawley to Bis
marck just at this juncture, would seem to
give color to the current rumOr. Governor
Church could go great deal farther and
then fail to find Mr.. Frawley's equal.
What is said of Mr.. Frawley is true. He
is an Industrious and able lawyer.

An Opportunity to do Good.

The boys and girls of Bismarck who
wish to do Kind act can gather up all
their out of date school books, Sunday
school papers and books of any kind they
do not care for, and send them to Mrs.
Linda w. Slaughter at Villula. They are
to be distributed among the poor children
in the country, where there are no winter
schools to help them pass pleasantly and
profitably the long cold months, when they
are shut in on the prairies. Also all faml-
lies having half worn or cast off clothing
of any description for men, women or
children will perform an act of charity by
sending it also to Mrs. Slaughter, who will
see that it is properly distributed among
the poor people in the country. There are
many deserving families struggling for ex-
istence on isolated claims to whom the
coming winter has a terror that those who
are warmly housed and clad can never
know, and who can be made comfortable
by the gift of warm garments. no matter
how old or worn, and which those more
fortunate in this worlds goods will never
miss from their abundance.

Mr.. Claver's Lucky Draw.

Having interviewed Mr.. Jno. T. Claver
in regard to his reported lucky draw in the
Louisiana State lottery, we find that he
held one-twentieth of ticket No. 46,755,
which drew the first capital prize of $780,
600 in the company's drawing on the 9th of
October last, and that he hiss received his
money-$15,O ,OO0-on the same. Mr.. Claver's
ticket cost him one dollar, and was the first
and only money he had ever invested in
that way.
By an agreement with Mr.. William Fos-
ter of this place, who also held ticket in
the institution, that if either Of their tickets
drew prize they would divide equally, Mr..
Foster receives 0ne-half the amount.
Mr.. Claver and Mr.. Foster are both well
respected citizens Of this vicinity. and
whatever may be said pro or con Of the
lottery itself, this amount of money will
elevate them from moderate to well-to-do
circumstances, and it is to be hoped that it
will be invested in way that will give it
