When the first vessel completed the
passage of the then new Erie Canal, in
1926, there being no such thing as a tele-
graph line in those days, the news was
communicated to New York and to Buffalo
by cannons placed within hearing of each
of the other cities. The signal was passed
along in this way from Albany to New
York City and back again to Albany in
ffty-eight minutes. The experiment was
Il costly one, but was a success in every
particular.

not through the newspapers. A large
batch of printed postal cards advertising
a turkey rattle have been seized there, and
all further advertisements of the sort will
be %squelched as soon as they appear.

H COAL BUSINESS.

Pierrie Free Press: Not long since the
Bismarck Tribune contained an account
of an effort being made by some eastern
parties to develop coal mines lying along
the river north of that city. Harry Wy
brant is at present stopping at the Locke,
and hearing that he was lately from Bis
marck and knew something of this coal
deal the Free Press approached him on the
matter yesterday. He said:
"Yes, you may be sure it is no capital
fake this time. There is an Englishmsn
named Josiah Plenty, who has a barrel of
money, backing the enterprise. He has
purchased in the neighborhood of $500
acres of this coal landlying along the river,
and has opened up a big twelve foot vein
of the coal which he proposes to work.
He already has a large part of the lumber
delivered to build eighteen large barges,
and will give employment this winter to
six hundred men. He has secured
the Benton Transportation company's
ways in Bismarck. to build his barges on,
and Capt. Talbot, late of the Abner O'Neil,
is experimenting the Job. If all this does
not mean business I do not know what
does. Nj. Plenty says he is going to lay
a good quality of coal down at every point
on the river between Bismarck and Sioux
City next summer at a price nOt exceed
ing $3.50 per ton, and he can do it. Think
of that! If he cannot get a couple of tow
boats from the Ohio river this winter he
will build them in Bismarck"

THE COWBOY MARQUIS.

All North Dakotians will remember the
singular antics of Marquis de Mores who
killed the cowboy at Medora, N. D. where
he had a rancho and few high with his
Dutch wife's money. AlParis cablegram
says: The DUO de Va%llombrosa, father of
the Marquis de Mores, has asked the Civil
Tribunal to declare his son a spendthrift
and place him under a conseil judicaire.
The Marquis de Mores married Miss
Marie Medora de Hoffman,, daughter of
the we'll known New York banker, and has
three children. He was formerly a cavalry
officer in the French army, but resigned
and went to Western America, where he
had q ranch. In Paris he became an anti
Semitic and a Boulangist. Subsequently
he tried his hand at being a sort of gentle
man anarchist and consequently passed
three months in prison for fomenting riots.
He continued meanwhile to be a member
of the Jockey Club. He is a splendid
horseman and very courageous. He in
spires the sympathy of even his enemies,
who by the way, are very numerous. In
the paternal petition to the Court the Due
de Vallombrosa complains that the Mar
quis de Mores had before his marriage
debts amounting to sOOO,OOOf. Since the
wedding he also accumulated a great many
debts, which we're paid off by his mother
in-law, Mrs. de Hoffman.
The Marquise de Mores has her proper
tY separated from that of the Marquis, but
in the present suit she is with her husband.
The Conseil de Famille, which supports
the demand for the Marquis de Mores to
be declared a spendthrift is composed of
Comte Becon, Comte de Kergolay, Comte
Lafonte and Comte de Cars-all members
of the haute ~aristocratie Franchise. The
Court will give judgment in a week.

A GERMAN

Col. T'owner, who is at the head Of the
Edgemoor Farming company, the syndi-
cate which intends bringing in some 1000
Or 1900 German families next spring, was
in the city this week on business connected
with his project. Accompanying him were
WIN. H. Sarbuck, of Chicago; M. ]. Cots
chalk and G. P. Boston, of Fort Wayne,
Indiana; aud N. Hathaway and Chas. Nc
Lean, of Chicago. The latter gentleman
are all interested in the colony to a greater
or less extent and their visit was for the
purpose of "spying out the land" in order
to describe it intelligently to the people it
is proposed to bring in. They we're shown
the land around Cando and the townships
on which Col. Towner placed filings a few
days ago and were very favorably i'm
pressed with the country. They talked
with farmers, inspected the wheat and saw
threshing machines at work pouring out
1000 bushels OF grain a day, all of which
tended to make their visit pleasant as well
as profitable in the way of acquiring in
formation. Mr.. Starbuck is cashier of a
national bank in Chicago and is secretary
of the company. Mr.. Mclean is on of
the leading grain dealers in Chicago and
proposes to handle the barley raised. The
other gentlemen are prominent business
men in their respective localities and will
assist in organizing the colony.
Col. Towner states that 1t is the inten-
ton of his company to encourage di-
versifed farming on the part of the
colonists. Barley will probably be the
principal cerial raised, but wheat and oats
and other grains will not be neglected.
Stock raising will also be encouraged.
Horses, cattle end sheep will be furnished
the colonists. Gardening and truck farm
ing, for which this climate and soil are we'll
adapted, will also be pursued. Arrange
ments are being made for caring for the
produce of these farms and everything
that an intelligent use of capital can do to
make the venture q success will be done.

Grand Forks Herald: The determine
ton of federal officers to vigorously enforce
the laws prohibiting pauper immigration
will meet with hearty approval in this
state. North Dakota is one of the border
states and as such is specially exposed to
this influx of pauperism. The facts mar
rated in these columns yesterday indicate
the existence of an organized movement
for importing foreign paupers from Eu-
rope through the Dominion into the Unit
ed States. The sparsely settled frontier of
North Dakota, Minnesota and Montana
affords facilities for illegal immigration as
veil as smuggling. To the inhabitants of
these states it will be specially gratifying
to know that the force of inspectors and
detectives is to be doubled, with headquar-
ters removed from Chicago to st. Paul,
and moro efficient measures employed to
protect our citizens from the inroads of
pauper immigration.

The Stanton Pilot says that stockmen
complain that the grass this season is in
ferior in quality. The wet season is be-
lieved to be the cause. Cattle do not relish
the range grass but hang around the stacks,
and in some cases prefer straw stacks to
the range.

CHICAGO, ILL, Aug. 19.-Cardinal
Gibbons was in the city last evening, on
his way to Milwaukee to confer the pal
lium upon Archbishop Rather. A re-
porter asked if there was anything more
to say concerning the Cahenselv Incl
dent, in view of the fact that an ennis
sary of the Raphael societies was now
on his.way to America. He said:
"There is nothing new that I am
aware of, and / trust for the dignity of
the Catholic church and the welfare of
our fair land that the matter has now
become antique history. My views on
that subject have been already given to
the public IN detail. am opposed to
any movement affecting the hierarchy
of the United States that is calculated to
destroy the Americanism Of the church.
The strength and backbone of the
church in this country lies in the fact
of its being American. The efforts Of
foreigners to change the existing condi-
ton of affairs will meet with strenuous
opposition and am satisfied will prove
utterly futile"
When asked for his views regarding
the holding of Catholic congress in
Chicago during the Worlds Fair, Car
dinal Gibbons said
"That is very good idea and would
be productive of great good. Such
congress would not of course treat of
facts and morals, but would consider
the great social, political, economic and
benevolent problems of the day, partic-
ularly the latter. The vast numbers of
emigrants yearly pouring into America
makes it imperative that benevolence
and benevolent institutions should be
exclusively studied in the near future,
and the holding of congress in 1898
for this purpose would be of immeasur-
able value TO the church and TO the
countries Of North and South America.
Yes, enclose very emphatically Arch
bishop Ireland's views in this respect"

revenue laws may be so revised as to treat
with equality all the various industries of
the commonwealth, thus relieving the
land OF the farmer from unfair discrimi-
nations to which it has heretofore been
subjected.
Eleventh-we denounce the unscrupu-
lous craftsmanship of Governor Pattison in
vetoing all the apportionmentb bills passed in
compliance with constitutional direction
by the late Republican legislature, and in
negativing other legislation, particularly
the Compulsory Educational bill, having
in view the national and moral interests of
the people of Pennsylvania.
Twelfth-We commend the Republican
mayor, city solicitor, county controller and
district attorney of Philadelphia for their
discovery and prompt prosecution of those
guilty Of official malfeasance. These
officers, by their action, have exemplified
the ever ready determination of Repub-
lican officials to correct and reform abuses
in all branches of municipal, state and ma
tional government.
Thirteenth--We are in favor of the
prompt repeal, by the legislature, of all
mercantile taxes levied by the state and of
such amendment TO the revenue and other
laws as will effectually promote the orderly
receipt, the lawful and safe custody, and
the prompt and proper disbursement not
only of the moneys of the commonwealth
but of all of its cities, boroughs and town
ships, and the law should be so improved
as to absolutely prevent the use of all pub
lie funds. small or great, for the personal
benefit of public officials.
Fourteenth-We favor such legislation
as will secure to the firemen in our State
relief from any disability or sickness
caused by exposure or service in the per-
Torrance of their duties. and which will
secure from want any person or persons
dependent on any fireman who may lose
his life in the public service or die from
any cause consequent thereupon.

Brief Description of the Whaiebac
Steamer Coming Here.

Steufnef coming mere.
The whaleback steamer Wetmore is
at Brooklyn, whence in few days she
will come to the shipyard of the Pussy
d Jones Company to take on cargo of
machinery. From this port she will sail
tor Tacoma, Washington state. AT Ia
coma shipyard is to be established and
a fleet of whalebacks built for service in
the Pacific trade.
She is 265 feet long over all, 39 feet
beam and "a feet hold. She carries four
iurymasts, on which are set five sails
four trysails and lib. Her gross reg
lister is / ,075 tons, and she can carry 5000
tons of cargo on 17-foot draught, leav-
ing freeboard of eight feet.
The hull Is made of steel plates with
internal overlapping butt straps. Right
forward there is steel turret, which
covers the retreat of the crew to their
sleeping quarters, and from this there
is a clean sweep Of about 200 feet, clear
of all circumference, and only protected
by light wire fence. Aft are three
steel turrets, connected by an iron
sheathed deck, one of the turrets con-
tanning the smoke-stack, another rising
above the engine room, and the third
being the companion to the cabin and
engine room. There is no keel, the bot
tom bullying downward from stem to
stern, and the water ballast-S00 tons
is arranged for by means of cellular
double bottom. The single deck is
round. There are no less than nine
steel matches, all bolted down to the
deck. and made tight by India-rubber
groove held packing.
The engines are of the compound sur
face-condensing type, with inverted cyl
inders, to work at pressure of 1876
pounds to the square inch.
Had the Wetmore jumped Niagara
Falls she would hardly have attracted
more attention than was awarded her.
She steamed from Proctor Knots "City
of the Unsalted Seas" through the lakes,
down the st. Lawrence Rapids and
across the Atlantic in Al days, carrying
in her capacious NAV of steel $4,000
bushels of wheat. From Liverpool she
ran to New York in IA days, burning
only 10 tons of coal day.

A vTcIous RAT.
1t Attacks Woman While In Bed and
Severely Bites Her.


Mrs. Hannah Neal, of sos Walnut
street, is recovering from rat bite
which threatened for time 10 develop
into blood poisoning or something
equally as fatal and thus result in
death. The wound was inflicted on
Saturday morning last while Mrs. Neal
was in bed. She arose about o'clock
in the morning to put the bed-ro
window down during the rain and lay
down on the bed again and had Just
fallen into a dose when she felt pierre
ing bite on the thumb of the left hand.
She awoke with start and was terror
stricken to see large rat with q long,
ugly tail and grizzly hair gnawing at
her thumb.
The woman's screams soon brought
her mother, Mrs. Dennis, into the room
to learn the cause of her daughters
screaming. Just as Mrs. Dennis rushed
into the room her daughter raised her
hand with the rat hanging tight to the
thumb with its teeth, and gave it sling
in the direction of the floor. The huge
rodent was unable to hold tight to the
finger any longer, and its horrible-look-
ing body rolled over on the floor at full
hN"hNAf Juot ibCilHlS CultTtu
room. The rodent was not slow in re-
covering its equilibrium and made its
exit out through the door. Mrs. Dennis
was frightened.
Mrs. Neal was at this moment laying
on the bed with the blood fairly oozing
from the wound in the finger. The
poisonous teeth OF the idiminutive mon
ster had almost penetrated the finger
from side to side and the long teeth
marks were plainly visible The thumb
soon began TO swell up twice its natural
size and the pain was excruciating. The
services of DIR. Hertel We're called on
Saturday morning and he at once began
to allay the poisoning. The woman's
condition grew worse for a time and on
Sunday il was thought she would not
survive the rodents assault. She had
heard of persons dying from similar
bites and this agitated her mind. and
made her condition worse. Finally her
condition changed and she is now on a
rapid road to recovery.
She considers herself quite fortunate
that the rat did not attack her throat in
stead of the finger.
