GRAND Forks, N. D., Aug. 2.-The
village of Fisher, twelve miles east of
Grand Forks, was startled this morning
by a brutal murder upon the arrival of
the west bound Great Northern passen-
ger train there. Dr.. Bahrsen Of Crooks
ton, q passenger thereon, alighted upon
the platform, when q fellow named
Horace Russell stepped up to him and
fired two shots in rapid succession. The
second shot penetrated the doctors head,
entering behind and passing out over
the left eye. The doctor staggered and
fell. After firing Russell pulled his coat
and made for the woods, which are dense
in that vicinity, still holding the smok-
ing revolver in his hand, aud closely
pursued by Marshall Riley and the
crowd, the latter intent on lynching.
Russell and his wife had q quarrel sever
al weeks ago. and the woman lett him
and returned to her home at Lisbon.
Russell attributes his wife's separation
to the influence Of Dr.. Bahrsen, though
it 10 generally believed the doctor is per-
fectly innocent. Il il believed Russell
cannot possibly escape. a. the whole
country is alarmed and citizens from
Crookston as we'll a. Fisher have joined
in the pursuit. He 10 likely to he lynch

When You Go Away.

When packing your trunk remember to
sew all the folds in your dresses fiat. There
is nothing SO quickly makes q new dress
look like an old one as bad management in
packing. Lay a paper over passementeries
and bead trimmings, IS they will be sure
tt leave their mark on anything lightly
packed above them. II your trunk is too
short turn your dresses at the top, never
at the bottom, and If there fs a velvet panel
creation in your wardrobe lay something
soft where you fold it and place it perfectly
fat, otherwise it will come out In a watered
design whereit was not evenly laid. Open
all tapes, and If you have a wash dress
with loopings open them out, for II packed
looped by the time you reach your destina-
ton all their fresh stiffness will be lost.
Pack everything IS fatty and evenly a
possible, and you will be surprised to see
how much can be gotten into wen u small
trunk, especially II the trunk be packed
gradually SO as to let it settle by degrees.

Riders and Fencers.

Outside of New York Philadelphia and
Baltimore furnish the handsomest and
best equipped as well as the most daring
horsewomen. Fencing for women grows
steadily in favor. There are few conspicu-
GUS proficients, though, outside the stage.
Mrs. Langtry is a fine hand with the foils.
So is Mrs. Potter. Bernhard swears by
them. The exercises SO essentially French
that it is no wonder French women are
most expert in 1t. Some Of the greatest
ladies in Paris could fight . duel to the
death, with all the chances in their favor
unless the opponent wa u marvelously
fine swordsman. Viennese women fence,
too. In each case It is the ladies of the
great world and the half who affect the
pastime. The great middle class and the
working women know nothing Of such dis
tractions.-New York Star.

An inexpensive Puraaer.

Altar boiling ten minutes the waAee
should be poured into q wooden or stone
tar, covered with a cloth and left an hour
10 cool, when it may be put into the filter.
For q filter a new. clean flower pot Of UNI
glazed clay. filed monthly, or rather
changed for one freshly charged. Is better
than most Of the patents in tho market.
First cut q disk Of cotton flannel to At tho
bottom Of the pot inside, put on this .
layer Of clean, white sand an inch thick,
then three inches Of charcoal in very
coarse powder, three inches of sand above
this, and clean, washed gravel over all,
and you have as good q filter for q dollar
. you can buy for ten, as Tar as working
goes. The water must run through this
twelve hours before the charcoal dust
washes out so that the fluid runs clear.
The pot should ft into the top of a long
stone jar with faucet attached and the ice
be hung in it, tied in a piece of cotton fan
mel for a primitive mode of keeping the
iceworms out and making the ice last
longer.
The only trouble with water SO prepared
Is that it tastes fat from var of air,
which DR.. Currier proposes to supply by q
clean bellows kept for the purpose, but 1t
is moro conveniently done by pouring
water from one pitcher to another several
times as foaming drinks are mixed. Or

could be used in the water for a few min
utes, and the most discriminating palate
could hardly fail to approve water 30 re-

The Cereal Crop in South Dakota.

HURON, s. D, Aug. 21.-Threshlng is
demonstrating the fact that nearly all
estimates placed on grain in the stack
have haen Far wide Of the mark. Reports
from thirty-two counties in southern and
central South Dakota prove the average
tor country comprised to be eight bushels
mar acre. The average for the state will
raach ten bushels, as the southern coun-
t;aa received o greater amount Of rain
vhen most needed. The averages Of
counties vary from three to twenty
hnshals per acre. In the same ~thirty-two
c~nnnties oats average twenty bushelsIsnd

W1LKEsBARRE, Pa, Aug. 21.-Carpen-
ters and bricklayers can be seen in all
parts of the city at work to-day repairing
damage done by the cyclone and hum
dreds more can find employment. There
are many poor families in the outlying
wards out Of house and home. Food and
money in many cases are needed, though
the majority are being cared for by poor
directors and charitably disposed per-
sons of the town. For the next sixty
days work will be suspended at the Hill

head house Of breaker was completely
blown away and part. of the machinery
was damaged. The loss on the breaker

Chicago switchmen still Out

CHICAGO, Aug. 26.-The rumor that
the striking stock yards switchmen had
repented their haste and asked to be
taken back by the Switching association
at. the old rate of wages is groundless.
The switchmen are still out tonight and
the packing town is idle once mor The
roads have dissolved their switching as
ISOLATION, declared the strikers dis
charged and say that each road will here
after do its own switching. The great
problem now is, will employees of the va
riOus roads consent to do work formerly
done by strikers, or will they declare
that they are taking the places of strikers
in doing this switching and refuse to
enter the yards? If the latter position is
assumed by employees of the various
lines, every road entering Chicago may
be tied up before 48 hours, as there is no
doubt that tomorrow will see every oad
attempting to do it's own switching. The
company's ground for hope that a gen.
eral strike may not take place is the fact
that the switchmen last night struck in
altogether an irregular and, according to
their bylaws, illegal manner No seri-
ous attempt was made by the roads to
clear the yards to-day, but tomorrow
will witness q herculean effort to resume
operations.
The X. of L. VIII Keep UP the Fight.
New YORK, Aug. 27.-Late tonight
Powderly put forth a statement. It re-
views the ground traversed by him in
his previous manifesto. He intimates
that the dividends from the New York
Central interests are not equally divided,
and says: "The New York Central owns
the Wagner palace car concern, but the
dividends of that institution are not
shared in by the stockholders of the
New York Oentral-they 60 to the q
ayers of the Wagner company. The
Blue Line of freight cars is owned by
the New York Central, and it is a ques-
ton whether the stockholders know
what the earnings are. The bridge at
Albany is owned by the New York Gen.
trail, but I am told it is held as a sepa-
rate piece Of property" Appropos of
this, Powderly demands government IN
troll of railroads; he rehearses the Sixth
National bank scandal in the same con-
nection, and he says he thinks Barry of
unsound mind and his u~tterances un-
worthy of attention. The fight will be
kept up, says Powderly, until Chauncey
Depew comes here to rebuke or to range
himself beside Vice President Webs.

The Dinusion Of Light.

A bit of clever artifice to which women
may resort with a clear conscience consists
in distributing light so that coloring and
features may be developed instead Of fat
tened. In more than half the houses, on
visits both day and night, the light Is in
artistically admitted from above. Go into
any ballroom where floods Of illumination
are dispersed from a great height, and the
freshest debutante is seen at a disadvan-
tage. Her rosiness Is fairly devoured by
the greedy glare, and not until N draws
her into the dimly lit conservatory are all
the delicate tints restored. The secret Of
preserving ones bloom after nightfall lies
in using wax or even paraffine candles as
much as possible, and so distributing their
soft glow that it will all shine from about
q level with the face. 'How exceedingly
pretty the girls always look at your house."
remarked u casual observer, never guessing
that one-half the credit was due their host
ess, who enhanced instead Of ruthlessly
d~issipating her guests loveliness by the
manipulation of illumination ILLUSTRATED

A Famous Woman Surgeon.
Mime. Ribart, the ex-grisette, who WA
the first European to practice medicine In
the Turkish harems, wa as skillful a
most Of her contemporaries. The woman's
career Is more romantic than most fiction.
Her lover in Paris was a medical student;
she devoured his text books with more
avidity than he did her novels. She passed
a brilliant examination at t~wenty-six and
went to Cairo to practice; her patients were
soon numbered by the hundreds, but the
excuses into which she plunged resultedin
her incarceration in a lunatic asylum. She
then sought a new career in Cochin China
and at oncc won the admiration of the
French inhabitants. So speedily did her
skill as a surgeon make her famous that
she in a short time became physician to the
court, and was to have operated on the
queen mother of AMMAN for cataract. The
day before she was to have relieved the old
queen, who had been blind for years, the
wonderfully beautiful and skillful DIR.

Judge Rose of jamestown Files q
Decision in the Valley City Orig
rs inal Package Case.
He Holds that the Prohibition Law
When Enacted was I'm
constitutional.
Dealers May Sell Original Packages,
But Contents Must be Drank
Off the Premises.
Judge Roses Decision.

ST. PAUL, Aug. ola Pioneer Press
special from Jamestown, n. D., says:
Judge Rose filed a decision in the Barnes
county original package a to-day,
which was argued last week. In view of
a probability that the original package
business will continue until the next leg
~islature meets in both the Dakotas, the
decision is of great interest to the north
west inasmuch as it defines under what
restrictions the original package business
might be carried on prior to the passage
of the Wilson bill. The title of the case
is The State against John Bergren. The
defendant is an original package dealer
in Valley City. The complaint alleges
that he sold liquor in violation of the
prohibition law in selling in original
packages, and that under said law his
place was q nuisance. An order was
therefore asked restraining him from
further selling. The defense commended
that the law a unconstitutional, and
when enacted, and is still a nullity. Judge
Rose holds that the law when enacted
wa unconstitutional, as congress has
sole power to regulate commerce be-
tween states, and the legislature at the
time of the passage Of. said %prohibitory
law was without power to pass such law.
He says the act was void when passed,
and imperative in so far as it prohibits
the importation and sale Of intoxicating
liquors. The judge declined to pass upon
the claim that the law is still a nullity;
for the reason that the acts complained
of were committed prior to the passage
of the Wilson bill, and hence that the
law cuts no figure in the case. The in
ference is plain, however. that he would
hold the statute still a nullity. He de-
cided the provision against Importation
to be unconstitutional at the time it was
passed and the only question remaining
to be decided was whether it was
by the Wilson bill revived and made
operative. A case of beer was decided
to be a case of twenty-four original pack
ages. He decided that the original pack
age dealers were amenable to the state
law if they permit liquor sold in original
packages to be drank on the premises.
On this he says that while an importer
can import his merchandise (beer) into
the state and sell such at any place in.
the state, and may keep a place or house
where to store or sell it. yet as soon as
he has sold beer it has passed in
to the hands of the purchaser, and has
thus become a part Of the property of
the state and subject to its laws; he
ceases to be an importer and becomes
amenable to the laws of the state, in 80
far as he invites and permits purchasers
to assemble and drink beer he has sold
in or on his premises. Bergen having
permitted liquor to be drank on his
premises, Judge Rose granted the order
restraining him from further selling the
liquor. The decision applies to South
Dakota as we'll as North Dakota.
