Notn'ng since the location OF the capital al
Bismarck by the Ordway commission has ere.
ated such intense excitement throughout North
Dakota as the recent act Of the constitutional
convention locating the public institutions Of
the state. The people feel that they have
been insulted and their rights have been out
ragged by the action of the majority Of the con-
ventlon. 1t is not that Bismarck was selected
Tor the capital, but because upon its face the
act carries with 1t the taint Of fraud and the
arrogant assumption of powers not intended
by the people to be delegated to the conven.
tlon. The masses of the people Of North Da.
kota are honest and love fair dealing, and are
opposed to the schemes of the designing poll
| tical trlcksters who have sold their birthriebt
Tor mess OF pottago. Everywhere, except in
the localities which are the immediate benefi-
Charles OF the fraudulent deal, the. people have
held meetings OF indignation aud given voice
to their feelings on this subject In no uncer-
tain sonnd. Well would it have been for those
members OF the convention through whose aid
this combine was enabled to complete Its
work, to have listened to the voice of the peo-
pie ere 1t was too late. But their political
doom has been sealed by their own act, and
henceforth they will walk the land as political
outcasts, devoid alike Of honor and sympathy.
All honor to the brave minority who were true
to tho trust reposed in them, and yaliantly
fought for right and justice. In the history Of
North Dakota let their names be enshrined as
men whose honor was above all price.

ing up from his farm to Hope, while crossing
the railroad track and ascending the embank-
ment, the tugs became slackened and unhitch-
ed, the wagon was forced from tie horses,
soaring them and causing them to start and
run up the railroad track till they reached the
bridge west Of Gilman's, when one got his
feet through the ties and became fastened,
while the other fell off the edge Of the bridge
aud was held suspended by the harness. When
the fastenings were cut loose the animal fell
to the ground, distance Of some six feet, re-

THE VIENNA OPERA HOUSE.
One Of the Finest Buildings of the Kind
In Europe.

Among the beautiful buildings fronting on
the Ring street, in Vienna, none stand out
more conspicuous than the Imperial Opera
house. It was designed by Van der Null
and Sicculsburg in 1861, and completed
by their pupils, Stcrck and Guggitz, in 1859.
Both architects died during this interval Of
time, ana the magnificent structure stands
today a monument 20 their memory.
The building Is iutwo groups, the narrower
front tiank,l 10y fountains toward the Ring
containing the auditorium, the broader rear
wings lciUg devoted to the stage. together
with tie rehearsal halls and Offices Of the

an area Of $500 square feet. On the first
floor graceful clllptical arched doors support
a parapct adorned with statues Of the liberal

Pinafore," a new SIR ARTHUR SULLIVAN.

written by Arthur Sullivan and W. S. Gil
bert, the latter having published sumo time
before the Bah Ballads" a work which
showed considerable ability in the comic line.
"Pinafore' was English to the core. The
music, the words, the action were each re-

Besides, there was in il a most delightful
satire on the chief lord Of the admiralty Of

Some Of the Holocausts and

HOW CAN SAFETY RE ATTAINED!

The Ideal Theatre should BE Provided

Curtains and other Safeguards
A panic in the little Parke opyrn house at
JohnsUown, Pa, recently resulted in the loss
Of about a dozen lives. 1t was the first the
atre disaster Of the season, and in conse
quence has been made the text for many
newspaper sermons on the fact that 4 person
can never tell whether his check for a re-
served seat At the play will not serve also as
a ticket for the great Styx ferry.
In reckoning up the news probabilities of a
winter, every newspaper man confidently
counts on al least n or two great theatre
horrors. They are as certain 10 come Is are
the railroad accidents and big fires. In 1881
the whole world sHuddered rs the news Of the
Paris opera comique catastrophe was flashed
over the land AMI under the ssa. This fire
resulted IN the loss Of more than a hundred
lives: hall as many were severely injured,
and nearly a hundred were slightly hurt. d.
A peculiarly horrible feature Of this dis
sster was the fact that fully half Of those
burned todeath were So disfigured that identi-
fication was impossible. During the same
year occurred the burning Of the Theatre
ROYAL at Exeter, Eng. Eleven years before,
in December, 1876, the destruction Of the
Brooklyn Theatre was attended by almost
double the loss Of life and by incidents some
what similar and quite Us terrible. Ia ISIS
there occurred the fire and attendant panic
and wiping out Of human lives in the theatre
at Oporto, Spain. In 'he cheaper parts Of

occupants were principally IT the rougher
