"A Sensational ElOpement,

Another illustration of the inability of
parents to control the feelings of their
children IN love affairs was brought to
light yesterday. 1t seems Otis Tye won
the heart and hand of Lizzie Galloway,
daughter Of one of Burleigh county's
oldest citizens, and finally the consent of
her parents on conditions that they
should wait until Lizzie was 10 years
old, which the lovers agreed to. Scarce
ly a week had passed before Lizzie's
parents took a different view of the mat
ter and refused to allow the lovers to
meet or see each other. When this COM
mand was issued Lizzie left home and
went to live with her sister, Mrs. John
Allen. On learning that her father was
coming to compel her return home she
went to the residence of j. r. Hamilton,
where she took up her abode. On June
10th, Judge Winchester issued a writ of
habeas corpus commanding John Allen
and wife to produce the body of Lizzie
Galloway in court. To the writ Mr..
Allen made return that Lizzie had gone
to the home of j. r. Hamilton, where
she was supposed to be living. Mr.. Gal
loway then applied for a warrant to ar
rest his truant daughter on the grounds
of insanity. This, however, was refused
unless he could show grounds on which
to base his charge. The hearing of Mr..
Allen and his wife, charged with unlaw-
fully keeping Lizzie from her parents,
was postponed until yesterday. In the
meantime her lover, Otis, had not been
idle and when the sheriff visited. Mr..
Hamilton in search Of Lizzie he found
a letter addressed to Mr.. Hamilton stat
ing that Otis and bride had been mar
ried in Wisconsin and were now in st.
Paul. Lizzie is only II years old, which
prevented them being married in this
state, but the lawful age for marriage is
16 in Wisconsin, which in no way inter-
feres with the marriage in that state.
Mr.. Allen was seen yesterday and said:
Had not the charges of insanity been
made Miss Galloway would not have left
home to be married" He said Mr.. I've
was a man of good habits and excellent
character and while it was unfortunate
the union had to be made in the manner
it was he believed it would prove a
happy one for both the bride and her
husband. Mr.. Tye and wife are expected
to return in about two weeks.

NaughtOn Notes,

A%otCs.
Since the recent rains a number of our
farmers have engaged in breaking sod to
plant to corn.
Mr.. John Flanagan is building a sub
stantial log addition to his frame house
on his farm, and will move here with his
family, that his children may attend
school.
Mr.. Peter Smith our skilled carpenter
went to Bismarck on Friday to prove up
on his valuable homestead here. MIR.
Bernard Bischoff accompanied him.
MIR. j. Carlson has moved into Mr..
Glineberg's house to get nearer to the
school.
MIR. j. Mcdonald has two teams en-
gagged IN breaking this week.
Mr.. G. LETTERS is breaking on his land
here and will put in a few more acres of
corn.
Messrs. Smith and Bischoff completed
a comfortable house on Miss Rosa
Slaughter's farm this week.
With a prospective p~ostoffice and a
railroad, why shouldn't Naughton town.
ship have a boom?
Mr.. John Allen is another good citi-
zen who appreciates the advantage of
being near a good school, and he will
build on his tree claim here, and move
over from his homestead with his fami-
ly.
Mrs. John Naughton and Patsey went
to Bismarck on Saturday to spend Sun
day and listen to one of Father Martins
excellent sermons.
North Dakota is a great sheep country.
The climate, the grass and the water is
unexcelled anywhere, but although sheep
a stand cold they cannot stand rain
and the firm or individual who will send
a flock of these woolly creatures out on
the prairie in the rainy season with no
other protection than a portable fence,
ought to be punished for cruelty to ami
mails. Straw sheds are a necessity on a
sheep ranch.
Our farmers are talking much interest
in the farmers alliance and knights of
Labor movements. Two years hence
there will not be a farmer or laboring
man in North Dakota who does not
belong to one or other of these ~oreaniza-

Rev. Ryan Will Not Reply.

Rev. Ryan has been asked what reply,
if any, he would make to the charges of
Peter Miller, of Washburn, published in
the TRIBUNE, in which he is charged
with having published an untruthful
statement of the conference, in which he
was judge, as to the guilt of charges pre-
ferred against Rev. Geo. E. Brownell of
Washburn. Mr.. Ryan said he would not
publicly answer Mr.. Miller. He said he
would not lower himself to engage in
controversy with a man of no more hon
or than Miller. "As to the charges, they
are all false" said the reverend gentle
a "The opposition to Mr.. Brownell
is purely of a political character and
could not be considered by the confer
ence. We believe MI. Brownell is ad-
ministering the gospel to the people and
not trying to engage in a political strug-
gle" It was on that basis that the
charges we're considered to bear no evil
dence.
Hon. Geo. Aud, Dickinson: The North
ern Pacific has raised the price of hauling
Ignite coal from Dickinson to points as
far east as jamestown, to so cents a ton.
Formerly the difference in the rate be-
tween Dickinson and Sims was but Is
cents a ton, which enabled us to get at
least a share of the coal business. AS a
matter of fact. the interests of the people,
and the development of the western native
coal region require that the company make
q fiat rate on coal, the same as it did on
hay to Montana from points in North Da-
kota, wherever hay could be obtained. If
this were in force, giving all coal mines an
opportunity to get their product into the
would rapidly increase and all parties be
greatly benefited.

The Fargo Commonwealth Sayeth.

It is reported that the Bismarck team
has a runner that will run with any and
all corners at the tournament. Perhaps
they have, but we wish to predict right
now that when Con Keefe runs with the
man from the slope the latter will find
that he was not sin it." Keefe is built
for running and it takes a swift n to
beat him on a 100 or 200 yards track.
H. H. Palmer, leader of the Bismarck
band, is in the city, and will remain un-
til after the tournament. He has his
musical instrument with him and will
put his spare time making music. MI.
Palmer is a base ball enthusiast, a fire.
man and a musician, and will enjoy the
tournament as much as any man in the
state.
Messrs. Geo. Moore and Ed. Conway
are two of the Bismarck boys who have
arrived in this city and will ROMAN till
after the tournament, and still longer if
they can find employment, and We think
that they can. Still they come, and all
are welcome, "

SOMERSET COUNTY WELL.
II is Not Regarded as the Beginning
of a Great OIL Terrftory

II is Not Regarded as the Beginning
of a Great OIL Territory.
John L. McCargo, who returned yesterday
from Somerset county, where OIL vas
reported 10 have been struck last Mondsy,
says that it is rather doubtful II the locality
viii amount to anything in the way Of an
oil field. Tie well, be said, IS located
in Elk Lick township noi f<r from Myers
dale, and while j; may prove the first pro-
ducer in an entirely new field, the chances
are about as 10 10 l against il. Il IS in the
southern part of the county and lies almost
due east of the Dunkani field. in Greene
county, fro3 which il must be distant not
less than - or 80 miles. II is consideTa-
bic distance east Of what is known as Laurel
Hill anticlinal, and also east Of a short an
tiolinal called the Negro mountain anticH-
nal. The charmed As line upon which oil
men operate, running through the Elk Lick
well, passes many miles east OF any oil field
in the State, and is east of any gas territory
yet opened up. If this line were extended
on into West Virginia it would pass east Of
the most easteriy field in that State, and if
extended down to Kentucky would probably
pass near the oil territory there.
- | think it is too far east to ever amount
20 much as an oil field. There has never
been oil found in paying quantities 50 close
20 the Allegheny mountain range. The
geological formation is also against the
Ekhhood Of a good we'll Still, notwith-
standing al these Indications against the
finding of oil, there is possibility thar a
producing field may be opened. The drill
has again and again knocked out the theo-
ries advanced by The most experienced oper-
aiors, and pool may be found as close to
the mountain range as the Eik Lick ven
tare.
The part Of the country in which this
well IS located has all been examined by ex-
perts, and in the opinion of all Of them Is
chiefly to the effect that it is poor oil terri
tory.
The well has been reported as a flowing
one 0utit did not how. The bailer brought |
up little black-looking fluid on top Of the |
water which had slightly brackish as we'll |
as an oily taste. The fluid Is said to smell I
ike, look like, and burn like oil. The iuid 1
was found at l,2Oo feet. This is not sure
sign OF protective oil saud, as Indications /
Of petroleum, making allowance for dip Of /
rocks and elevation of surface, have been |
found at this depth in many parts OF the
United States. A showing Of OIL at twice /
that depth would be much more eneourag-
ing indication in that locality than TO get it
at the point it IS alleged 10 hsve been found.
The usual excitement over the strike has
resulted, and the farmers are already want
ing bonuses Of about double the selling
value Of their farms in fee simple. The well
is being drilled by local company, and it is
alleged that some Of them have refuses a
Pemium of 100 per cent for their stock. 7
