If you are going west bear in mind the fol-
lowing facts: "The Northern Pacific owns and
operates 9S7 miles, or 81 per cent. of the entire
tory with its main line from east to west; is
the short line to Helena; the only Pullman and
dining car line to Butte, and is the only line
that reaches Miles City, Billings, Bozeman.

burg, through the center of the Territory to
Tacoma and Seattle, and from Tacoma to Port
land. No other transcontinental through rail
line reaches any portion of Washington Terri
tory. Ten days stop over privileges are given
on NorthernPacific second class tickets at Spo-

intending settlers an excellent oppor- unity to
see the entire Territory without incurring the
expense of paying local fares from point to

NIPPED A BURGLAR.

Friday night about II o'clock Night
Waterman Mcdonald discovered a young
man attempting to gain an entrance into
the rear of ID. l.. Clements grocery store.
One of the large panes of glass had been
carefully removed from the rear window
by taking off the putty that held it, and
it was evident that the young fellow
was about to get in. A young man
named Payer was standing there and
the officer locked him up. Payer says
that he was not the one who removed
the glass, and did not intend to enter the
store. According to his story, a boy
named Ben Smith, living back of the
store, had planned during the afternoon
to break In and steal some cigars and
had told Payer about it. The latter &C.
ccmpanied him to the store and watched
him remove the glass, assisting him to
remove broken piece. Smith was in
his own house when the officer appear
ed. There was only small amount OF
change in the money drawer of the
store, so that the boys could not have
obtained much besides goods.

MANKATO's FIRE PROTECTION.
The Water System Stands Thorough
Test Wednesday.
A Complete Success.

A thorough test of the water system was
made Wednesday forenoon between $50
and 1000 o'clock. Theft hose carts
were taken out and stationed in differ
ent parts of the city and all the mains
were tested simultaneously. Four large
streams were thrown high in the air,
anyone of which would easily have reach
ed the roof Of the highest building in
the city. The pressure was first secured
from the pump and reservoir combined,
and later from the reservoir alone. So
| even was the pressure that although it
was as great or greater than ever before
applied, the hose could be handled with
less than one-half the difficulty that was
the case when the mill pump furnished
the entire pressure. The smaller noz-
Zles sent the water in almost solid
streams to the height fifty to one hun
dred feet and considerably further than
that in lateral direction. Chief Phil
lips is enthusiastic over the test and be-
lieves that Mankato is perfectly protect
ed within the limits of the mains. The
members of the department who par
ticipated in the test are also greatly
pleased with the result. There was a
pressure of from 80 to 120 pounds on the
mains throughout the test. But a single
section of cotton hose burst, and as this
was fair test other strength, 1t is rea-
sonable to suppose that they can be relied
upon in case of fire. When the reser-
voir is full the pressure will be much
greater than to-day, and the pump it.
self could have put on enough pressure
to have burst most of the hose. This
proves that Mankato's fire system is I'M
eXcelled.
One company took I'M its station at the
Normal school and sent a stream through
at II inch nozzle as high as the building,
through over 600 #. of hose. Another COM
panv located on n. Broad street and sent
a stream more than hundred feet. It
afterwards gave a test at Busch's corner
on Front street. Another company took
Front street near Liberty and sent a
powerful stream through $50 feet of hose
bursting section of cotton hose. The
fourth company gave an exhibition on
N. Broad street and secured an excel
lent stream. All of the companies were
playing streams at the same time and
for about half an hour, without affecting
the supply. 1t WAS much greater test
than an ordinary fire.
All in all, to-day's test may be looked
upon as conclusive evidence that Man
katy has system of water supply Sec
ond to none anywhere. Since this has
been demonstrated, there can exist no
doubt as to the great desirability of ex-
tending the mains and dIffusing the
blessings of pure water and the benefits
of ample fire protection. Many of the
best residence portions in oil parts of
the city are urgently crying for both
and Their prayers should not longer be
ignored.

cause il was found impossible to issue

however, has evidently concluded that
the State must not be without argicultur
al statistics, for he has been sending out
blacks To the county auditors requesting
an estimate of both acreage and Weld
for the year 1889. The estimate is to in
clude the acreage and yield of wheat,
oats, corn, barley, rye, buck wheat, pota-
sugar cane and pounds of sugar OBJ
tanned; acreage of hay and tons raised !
acreage of timothy and clover and the !
Y eld, number ofapple trees growing and

ing grape vines and grapes, us well as
the total acreage cultivated this year.
The returns must be sent in by Sept. |.
The secretary is quoted as saving that he
will secure by these blanks as accurate
lata as under the system of collecting
hese statistics through the assessOrs,
which statement is certainly no compli-
nent to the assessors.

Durability of Consumption.

This has been vexed question among
physicians, opinions even in the same
school, being strangely divergent. OF
this, however, the public are convinced:
it is terrible prevalent disease, and the
average doctor meets with but scant sue
cess in treating it. Consumption is in
reality scrofula of the lungs, and is liable
to attack any whose blood If tainted.
For driving out the scrofulous humors,
and thus removing the predisposing
cause, DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery Is a sovereign remedy. 1t
purIfies bad blood, heals scr 1fulous
ulcers. and, whatever difference of opin-
ion exist as to curing advanced cases of
consumption, it remains that many pro-
nounced ''inCurable" have been by it
brought back from the brink of the
gray e to restored health and vigor.
