the Dakota Midland grade, and
broke all former records from there
into town.
The assignment Of H. M. Ber-
gandahl, of Ellendale, is the result
OF poor crops in that vicinity for
several years past, and the failure
OF the farmers to pay him. His
Liabilities are about $4,000 and the
assets about the same, but consist
chiefly Of farmers securities.
In another column we state that
the meeting Of the G.. A. r. at Bos-
ton was a complete success. Since
that item was written it has rained
so hard as to mar the success Of the
exercises, and the heroes were re-s
minded Of old times by being COM
PEELED to march for hours in the
mud.

Aberdeen News: There is quite a
discussion in Methodist circles con-
corning the whereabouts Of the 46th
parallel Of latitude. It arises from
the fact that the general conference
described the South Dakota confer
ence as being that part Of the ter
rltory Of Dakota south Of the 10Th
parallel. Ellendale and Ludden. al
though in North Dakota, are very
near the parallel. The presiding
elder Of the Aberdeen district would
have jurisdiction Of the churches in
these two towns if they were south
Of the parallel. His Jurisdiction is
now questioned. Grams atlas places
Ellendale north Of the line, while
in the official map of the state, the
10th parallel passes right through
the city, One man there says the
line passes through on the main
street. The church is on the south
side Of the street and if the line is
there the church is in the Aberdeen
district. How can this be decided?
