side in Jamestown. The railroad boys
say jamestown has more right to claim
the club than Mandan. The Northern
Pacific club is the proper name.
Peddlers are beginning to show up
quite rapidly and the order of this court
is to patronize non of them. They are
sure to beat you in the long run. They
pay no taxes here and are in no way re-
sponsible for the interests or welfare of
the city. Patronize home industry and
if they don't sell you goods cheaper and
better than peddlers it is because they
are not feeling we'll. Buy of home mer-
chants.
Miss Emma B%eardsley gave a tea party
last evening. These parties have become
quite popular among the young society
ladies. After the tea the dining room of
the Western was turned into a pleasant
ball room. The following young ladies'
were present: Minnie Stoyell, Lille
Webb, Eda Wakeman, Edith Glitscka,
Jennie and Florence McNider, Edna
Falconer, Anna Williams, Celia Conway,
Hannah Griffin and Minnie Scott.
Geo S. Morrison who constructed the
Northern Pacific bridge at this place,
accompanied by Chief Engineer J.. W.
Kendrick of the Northern Pacific and
Engineer Morse of Chicago, who is in
terested in the Bismarck Water compa-
ny with Mr.. Morrison, we're in the city
yesterday viewing the bridge and water
works. The company are soon to con-
struct a similar bridge over the Yellow
stone, and their trip is mostly in copnec-
ton with that scheme.
Manager Falconer has sent a letter to
CAPTAIN Nelson in which he accepts the
challenge of the Northern Pacific rail-
road nine to play a game for 800 aside.
The game will be played on the Bismarck
grounds. Ed. Allen, Ed. Patterson, w.
B. Terrell, Manager Falconer and others
are backing the home club. Both clubs
have played good ball during the season
and no doubt the game will draw a large
audience. The date has not been
definitely decided on but will::probably be
the 25th inst.
Valley City Patriot: Insurance Com
missioner Carey was in the city Monday,
the guest of Major Black. After dinner
while the major and his guest we're en-
joying a pleasant chat and smoke in the
sitting room, Mr.. Carey struck a match
to relight his cigar, a piece of the lighted
match head flew off and fell among the
window curtains. In an instant they
were in a blaze almost to the ceiling.
Mr.. Carey quickly snatched the curtains
and smothered the fames-but not
without somewhat severely burning his
hands.

book printer in the northwest, and for
