DESTITUIION IN DAKOTA
Said to Be a Myth by an Army OF
ffnop

The report of the officer selected to
investigate the reported poverty and
destitution in Walsh county, Dakota,
has just been received. The investiga-
ton covered the entire portion of the
county reported in distress and resulted
in stigmatZing the Associated Press
dispatches as being devoid of truth.
The report is supported by the state
ments of the board of commissioners of
Walsh county, to the effect that no ap-
peal has been made to them for assist
ance from any person resident within
the county, nor Is single case of desti
tuition to be found within it's borders.
Embodied in the report is a tabulated
abstract from the county records, show
ing the county to be eminently prosper
Gus, with not dollar of floating indebt-
edness and treasury balance OF more
than $4,000. The names of the
individuals who, it is claimed,
originated the reports of destitution are
given, together with quotations express
sive of indignation and denial Oh the
part of those who were reported as Suf-
fering. Appended to the report is an
autograph letter of the auditor of
Cavalier county, emphatically denying
the printed runors of want among the
farmers in that section, and intimating
that the people of his county can usu-
ally find more news affecting them in
Minneapolis paper than they can verify
by the most intelligent and persistent
Inquiry at home. The report will be
transmitted to headquarters at Wash
ington.
Lieut.. Col Charles A. Alden, surgeon
United States army, medical director of

sequence of the prevailing epidemic of
sore throat at that post. Up to last

unmistakable diphthetia, five of Which
have resulted in death. In addition
there has been one case of Group, which
has proved fatal. The disease is con-
gned to children, except IN one case
that of an enlisted man now down with
diptheria The disease is attributable
to climatic conditions, the season having
been unusually warm.

ordnance officer, the commanding Off

BOARD OF ALDERMEN.
"A Veto by the Mayor Approx ed.
Saloons Near Cemeteries.

A very dry and uninteresting session,
in which large amount of routine bus
mess was transacted, is about all that
can be said of the regular meeting of
the aldermen last evening. President
Bickel was in the chair, and the ab-
sentees were Aid. Sanborn and Hanm.
The president stated that in accordance
with the resolution passed at joint
session of the city council and
board of county commissioners, he
had appointed Aid. Cullen. Sanborn
and Leithauser to the joint committee
of six to control the new court house
and city hall.
A petition from property owners oil
Beech and Hope streets was read asking
that the grade of these streets at their
intersection be raised at least sixteen
feet. The petition was referred to the
committee on streets.
Henry II. Sibley, as president of the
board of trustees of the Oakland Gene
tery association, addressed commu-
nication to the council asking that no
licenses be granted to sell intoxicating
liquors within 1000 feet of the entrance
to the cemetery. The communi-
cation stated that license had
been issued to William Miegel
to open saloon at Sycamore and Jack
sou streets at the immediate entrance to
the cemetery. and asked that it be re-
yoked. Aid. Gehan and Fischer could
see no objection to the saloon at that
point. and after some discussion the
subject was referred to the committee
Oh licenses.
An ordinance was offered by City At
torney Murray, at the request of the
chief of police, for the regulation and
control of pawnsheps and secondhand
stores. The ordinance provides that an

A Second Marriage Between
Former Slaves Develops an

Ante.Belium Romance. .-
Special to the Globe.
VERSAILLES, KY, Feb. 5.-A mar
riage ceremony in the Coloreu Methodist
church here yesterday developed ain
ante-bellum romance of more than the
usual Enoch Arden tendencies. The
contracting parties were Uncle Green
Morgan, seventy years old, and Aunt
Prudence Brown, sixty -eight. 1t was
the second marriage between the two.
In iS5S--during slavery Prudence Nor
gan. the slaye-wife of Green Morgan, of
this place, was sold to Louisiana
planter, separated from her husband
and taken South. Years rolled on,
the war came and ended, slavery
became q thing of the past. but
Morgan never heard of his wife.
Finally he gave her up as dead and
married again. By this wife he had
them married, with families of their
own. Last year the second Mrs. Nor
gan died. Uncle Green began to primp
UP and look around for third matri-
mOnial partner, when one day he re-
ceiyed a letter with Texas postmark.
1t proved to be from the first wife, sold
thirty years ago as a slave. She was
alive and well. and wanted to join
Green. She casually mentioned that
she had married a man named Brown
after the war, and had emigrated to
Texas and raised family. Brown had
died a few months ago and the children
had married. Morgan at once sent for
Prudence, and she arrived here last
week. 1t was necessary. of course, to
have another marriage ceremony per-
formed, and this was done yesterday.

Cable cars standing along the tracks,
empty save for the lone grlpmen who
sat inside endeavoring to keep warm,
attracted the attention Of pedestrians
last evening, and many belated West
enders had to foot it or take cabs to get
home. In one of the cars was trio of
fur-clad gripmen chewing tobacco and
swapping lies to kill time. The princi-
pal thing that troubled them was the
danger of the fire going out and leaving
them to freeze to death. They ex-
planned the unusual stOppage by the
fact that at 5:54 p. m. it was discovered
that one of the strands in the cable was
broken. 1t was absolutely necessary
that this strand be repaired at once. as
the danger was.very great of grip
catching the broken part and tearing it
still further, which would be liable to
cause destruction to the occupants of
the car. Accordingly, the everlasting
cable paused in its wild career and a,
new strand was carefully spllced into it.
