A Severe Droush at Jamestown.

"A ooNerc A1rousH AC Jamestown.
A prohibitionist in Alert: I believe
that prohibition prohibited IN
jamestown yesterday. I am
informed that it was, impossi-
BILE to get a drink Of Intoxicating liquors
in a saloon for love or money. 1t was
probably the first day in the history of
the city that liquor was not sold. Blum
closed his place Wednesday night and
several of the other places followed suit
yesterday. The men who are now open
claim to be selling only soft drinks.
They would close their doors but for
their billiard and pool tables. Blum
expressed his feelings by tying a piece
of Grape on his door. If the saloon men
will quit selling for good we can save the
exp:nse of a grand jury. A petition
with the requisite number of signers has
been obtained and if the matter is not
settled within a very few days the grand
jury will be called. We have no desire
to subject the saloon men to the heavy
fine and imprisonment provided as penal
ties. If they cease selling they will not
b. prosecuted; otherwise they are liable
to get full benefit of the law which they
term "~barbarous."

definitely prolonged. But when the bar
rel was tapped the next day it YVES
discovered that some goblin had been at
work on the supposed spirits and the
scrlptural miracle of old was again ex-
emplifed, but in a reverse way. The
whisky was turned into a very choice
sample of Missouri river water. The
curtain is drawn over the fervent re-
marks of Mr.. Walker. 1t is stated that
an old account was due from Walker to
SHIRLEY and by this means 1t was liqui-
dated.

Williamsport Record: Mr.. John Whit
taker visited the county seat Monday
and Mr.. Charles Mcintyre was in town
on Tuesday. Both are residents of Burr
Oak township, IN this county, and both
were early settlers. They are about to
leave the county, but not on account of
loss of faith. Both are stockmen, and
they are going up into northern Bur-
leigh, where the wild hay is plentiful
and settlement sparse. Mr.. Nc
Intyre says there will be no loss to the
county in the way of taxable property, as
sheep will at once be brought in to take
the place of the cattle and horses re-
moved. He believes that the bright days
are near for the farmers of the Missouri
slope. Mr.. Peter Shire has purchased
the Mcintyre claim and will stock it
with sheep.

No Wonder They nobbed Him.

It is related of a dissenting minister that
he started a church in a rural district, but
his congregation being incorrigible snorers,
and, what he considered worse, mean con-
tributors to the cause, he was soon obliged
to abandon it. His farewell sermon to the
lukewarm brethren was characterized by
more heat than eloquence. He ended thus:
AT the last day the Lord will say unto
Peter, Where is your flock?' and St. Pc
ter will answer, Here, Lord He will a
to Calvin, And where are your sheep?' and
Calvin will reply, Here, Lord And SO all
the shepherds can answer. But when he
asks me, Where are your sheeps' how will
you feel vixen | am compelled to reply,

The High School Commencement Elk
ercises at the M. E. Church
Last Evening.
The Three Graduates do Honor to
Themselves, the School and
the City.
The Audience was Large, the Floral
Offerings Many, the Program
Excellent.
Commencement Exercises.

lfrou sundays Da1y.J
Bismarck high school graduated it's
class of 81 last evening. The exercises
were held at the Methodist church which
was crowded to it's utmost capacity long
before the entertainment commenced.
which proved beyond doubt the deep
interest manifested in the cause of educa-
ton by Bismarck citizens. The church
was beautifully decorated. About the
rostrum was a profusion of flowers and
roses. Behind on the platform we're
seated the three graduates and others
who participated in the exercises. The
motto of the 81 class was gracefully dis
played from back of the pulpit arch.
The program was very promptly opened
with a piano duet by Misses Minnie
Stoyell and Edith Wakeman who ofici-
ated in their we'll known and pleasing
manner. The Rev. Geo. Kline offered
a short prayer and then Abraham w.
Eppinger proceeded to crate on. Ma
tional Reform. Beginning back in early
history of other countries he discussed
many reforms and ended by brief and
not very favorable illusions to the Nc
Kinley bill. Miss Maude Robin
o followed in the recitation of
that beautiful poem "In the South"
A we'll executed piano duet by the
Misses Minnie Stoyell and Bessie Wag-
goner led to the Grafton by the second
graduate, Ralph D. Ward, entitled Sue
cess a Result of Struggle" His re-
marks were scholarly and creditable but
difficult to hear in the rear on account of
the low tone in which they were spoken.
Mr.. Ward starts we'll with bright pros
poets. Instrumental music and a decla-
nation by Robert e. P. Kline-both be-
ing we'll received-were followed by the
essay of Miss Bessie Waggoner, the only
lady graduate. Her subject was "The
Artists who Paint our Lives,' which was
we'll received. Miss Celia Conway then
favored the audience with a vocal solo
"Fly Forth Gentle Dove which brcught
forth an encore, to which she responded
with another charming selection.
). K. Gage, president of the board of
education, in response to Prof. Thomp-
sons presentation of his class of 81, in a
neat speech presented the diplomas.
The benediction followed. The class of
81, although small, is no less deserving
of credit and the graduates go out into
the world with bright prospects and full
of hope and ambition.

A North Dakota Miracle.

A novel way to get even with a delin-
quent debtor has been exemplifed in this
city the past week. It t~ranspires that
George Walker, who is reported in the
past to have kept a blind pig resort at
Point Pleasant, opposite Fort Lincoln,
was in need Of some more of the liquid
r~efreshment required to sustain the fall
tering steps of the gallant defenders of
our country. Hearing that MI. Mlllard
SHIRLEY, of this place, had a barrel of the
much needed article, he suggested that
said barrel Of "wet hardware" be deliv-
cred to Walker by Sbibley in exchange
for coin of the realm. The bargain was
struck up, the barrel delivered to Walker,
SHIRLEY received therefor the stipulated
price-something like $9O-and both
were satisfied. The next day Mr.. Shib-
ley's business interests called him east,
anditsis rumored his return will be in.
