THIRTY MINES WITHIN SEVEN NILES

JJ. Luck of New Salem, forty miles west of
Bismarck, begs to say that all we have to do in
order to get coal is to go place where there is
ragged edge of hill, and find place where
the coal crops out; there we dig the top dirt off
and get out the coal. This dirt is from one.half
foot to six feet deep and the coal is from three to
six feet thick. We have at least thirty such
places within seven miles of New Salem that are
opened, and everybody can get their coal for the
digging of it. To ship we put it in the cars on
railroad track at $1.5o per ton. So you see we
get our coal cheap and easy.''

DAKOTA sUsRExDERs THE BE1r.
It Never Had Blizzard That Equa,,e,,

It Never Had q Blizzard That Equalletl
the One in the East Last Week.
WASHINGTON, March A.-[Special.] =
Dakota is no longer the land Of the bliz-
zard. She must surrender the belt to the
east. On Sunday last s.gentle zephyr
put in an appearance, and she has re-
manned with us to this date. Telegraph
lines are demolished; railroads are blocked;
people have been frozen to death in the
streets Of New York; Washington cut off
from the rest OF the world-no communi-
cation with any part of the United States
for several days. All this has taken place
right in the heart of the east And yet
there are people that say that the home Of
the festive blizzard is in Dakota.
Should Bismarck ever want a genuine
blizzard with big B, let her send word to
New York, Philadelphia or Washington.
We have now on hand a large supply and
can fill all orders. We have had no trains
or mail from New York for over two days.
Think of it!
Capt. John Barr, one of the oldest ex-
plOrers in the far west, says that in all his
experience in the far north country he
never saw such a storm. To add to all
this, come reports from the west that you
are enjoying beautiful, balmy spring
weather.
Correct, indeed, was Horace Greeley
when he said, go west, young man,
Word has just come to me that Barr and
"Rich'' John III. Richards) are now snow
bound at the National hotel, and that both
are working like q Dakota beaver endeav-
oring to dig a tunnel from their bed room
to the b-b-reakfast room. almost said
bar room, and that would have been a ter
rible error. If Barr could have had that
combination lock" of his in operation last
week, perhaps this blizzard could have
been warded off from Washington. He
could have put the combination OH our
beautiful city; given the dial plate turn,
and the blizzard would never have gotten
in our borders.
R. B. Mellon, formerly resident of your
city, was here last week. He and N. B.
Eustis left for the sunny land of Florida
on Saturday last. They will be absent
about four weeks. Dick told me that he
hoped to catch an alligator, and, if sue
cessful, he would mail it to some of the
boys in Bismarck.

for three years, applying all the results of
his labors to its Improvement and its pur-
chase, it is difficult to discern case more
worthy of being found marked by good
faith. 1t is marked by good faith. His

known as ''Beecher,'' who was arrested on
the charge Of robbing the Northern Pacific
ticket Office at this place, will be pleased
to learn that the accused has been arrested
marck. Hamilton was under bond Of $500
to await the action of the grand jury, but
did not wait. Judge Francis gave the
bondslnen until the adjournment Of the
grand jury to bring him back or forfeit
the $500. Jerry Duane was sent to Mis-
soula by the bondsmen to find Hamilton,
if possible, it having been accertained that
he was there. Yesterday word was re-
ceived from Duane that Hamilton had left
Missoula three days ago. Immediately
after the receipt Of this telegram another
was received from Pat Leo, now of Helena,
informing Sheriff DOnnelly that Hamilton
had been arrested there and asking in
structions as to keeping him or sending
him to Bismarck. Instructions were sent
and Hamilton having refused to come, a
requisition will be sent at once. The
amount stolen from the ticket Office was

Mandan's Celtic Enthusiasm

The celebration of st. Patrick's day in
Mandan was credit to the metropolis of
the west Missouri country and to the Rev
Father Perrault. through whose efforts
! the banquet was made a splendid success
The Emerson Institute was crowded, over
hundred enthusiastic citizens being com.
PEELED to stand during the entire evening.
The spread which was furnished by the
Mandan ladies was elegant and complete
and won compliments from every visitor
The charming young ladies who waited
upon the guests were prompt and courte-
GUS, and it was voted by every visitor that
for feminine beauty and grace Mandan is
second to no city in the west.
To say that the meeting was enthusi-
astic is to make a mild statement, for there
was all almost continual round of applause
from the time the first speaker was intro
duced until the last toast Of the evening
was ended. The ability displayed by the
orators was of high order. Gov
ernor Church's tribute to President Cleve-
land and the Irish race was greeted with
loud applause Judge Garland paid q
which no one but scholar could pay,
and Mayor Bentley represented Bismarck
in his usual happy vein. The speeches
were all bright and to the point, and Su-
perintendent Greene's picture of Mandan
in 1908 was the work of an artist. In well
coming the guests Mr.. Charles Hood was
spicy and cordial, and Father Perrault's
effort to prove that st. Patrick was a
Frenchman came as near creating a sensa-
ton among the celtS as though he had told

Lignite as a Fuel.

The Pioneer Press of Sunday had a
column interview with an expert on Iig-
mite in Minnesota and Dakota. The expert
believes Minnesota has some of it. He
knows something about our Ignite, as this
question and answer, taken from the inter
view, indicates:
"What do you think of Ignite as fuel ?''
"Lignite will not bear transportation
we'll, as it breaks up into slack to a great
extent when exposed to air. Used locally,
it is excellent fuel, and is freer from inn
purities than older coal. 1t makes very
excellent quality of gas. The fact is, the
indifference to the Ignite OF this state is
neglect of very important factor in our
development. Why, in the country on the
Missouri in Dakota, where there isn't
tree, and freight rates on coal are high,
the farmres have solved the fuel question
by digging the Ignite out of the ground.
A farmer with a convenient vein of Ignite
is pretty well fixed. and that fact is a fine
advertisement for Dakota. Lignite devel-
0pments in this state will do the same for
Minnesota. In the absence of natural gas,
the Ignite will do. I have no doubt that
it lies in great quantities in the western
part of the state. Gas could be made from
1t $50 miles or less from Minneapolis and
st. Paul, and be piped to those cities for
cooking, heating or mort0r purposes"

Few seats were vacant last night when
the curtain was rung up on the first act OF
Augustin Daly's metropolitan success, "a
Night Off," which was presented at the
Criterion theater for the first time. The
plot of the play hinges on romantic
tragedy which the author, Professor Justin
ian Babbiet, had written in his college days
and which he was anxious to have pro
duced by real live actors, on a real stage
and before real audience. This forms
the basis of q most amusing comedy
and the audience last night was kept In
high state of hilsrity for two hours
and q half. The company is one o.
the best seen In this city In Ions
time, and there is not q dull moment during
the entire piece. The Justinian Babbet o.
Ernest Bartram was fine bit OF character
