Bismarck weekly tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1884-1943, 1891-08-21

the business and his pen pictures will
describe the grand of the
ozone state to the world.
Recorder, Albion, Mich: Mrs. J.. r,
Gage and daughter Florence of Bis
marck, N. D., are visiting Mrs. Cages
parents, MI. and Mrs. P. w. Marsh, and
other friends in this city. Mrs. Gage was
born and brought up in Albion, but Wis
its it nov for the first time in ten years.
She notes many improvements made in
our beautiful city during the past de-
cade.
Elk Senator Pierce is in Minneapolis
again. He has not quite regained his
former goodf health and writes his son
Gerald that he is coming to Bismarck to
recuperate for a couple of weeks. The
senator is not sure he will be able to live
in Minneapolis on account of his health,
but says he will try once more. His
many friends in Bismarck will regret to
learn of his misfortune, but feel conf
dent a couple of weeks in the Ozone state
will produce the desired change.
Capt. Dan Yorkey, president of the
North Dakota Firemen's association, has
appointed the following committees:
Legislative, Harvey Harris, Bismarck;
A. G.. johnson, Grand Forks; and Arthur
Bassett, Fargo. Railroads, j. F. Ven
mum, Jamestown; j. Edgerly, Bismarck;
and Il. Strelow, Casselton. Mr.. Harris
is a member of Banner, Hook & Ladder
company and MI. Edgerly of Pioneer
Hose company No. l and both appoint
ments will give good satisfaction in the
department.
The G. A. R. men Of this city are won
dering why the North Dakota banner
was not at the Detroit encampment.
Commander Bentley sent 1t to the vice
commander at Fargo who was supposed
to have it at the encampment. There
we're forty-two veterans in line from the
Ozone state, which was a good representa-
ton, everything considered. Bismarck
secured all the honors for the state in
the appointment Of Judge Winchester
on the national council. A worthy man
for the position.
Critic: I tell you, since I went to that
splendid entertainment gotten up by
Mrs. Anderson and her charming and &C.
complished daughter, Miss Jessie, I am
more proud than ever before of Bis
marck's young people. I am glad to see
young ladies blossoming into woman
hood possessing such rare talent as Miss
Cora Strauss, Miss Bessie Waggoner,
and the Misses Joslyn, Winchester, Will
son, Murphy and Stoyell. And then
there are a host of younger girls who. are
also developing wonderfully. Bismarck
ought to pay more attention to such en-
tertainments.
Press, Fort Benton, Mont: This morn
ing the boating party bound for North
Dakota took their departure. It was
composed of John Sheath, Sidney Den
mis- and family, Charles Stedman and
Will Stoney. Their large boat had a
canvas tent pitched on it, and in addi-
ton they had a large skiff. The party
took provisions enough to last a month,
and expect to be able to float about forty
miles a day. Sheath and Dennis expect
to locate in North Dakota, Stoney ex-
poets to go east in the spring, while
Stedman will probably return to Fort
Benton in a couple of months.
There is a question as to the sanity of
one Lipnitz formerly engaged in shoe
making in the city. He recently went
to an attorney in the city and asked him
to u the city of Bismarck, the city
council and several individuals. He says
when he was in business first, certain
citizens tried to kill him by hanging him
with ropes. He was finally forced to
quit business. Afterwards he began again,
and this time other we'll known citizens
hired fifteen Or twenty men to wait for
him on the Main streets with axes and
kill him. He goes on back streets and
alleys altogether. He is undoubtedly
mentally deranged.
Auditor Bray: How's the Forks!
Booming; you would be surprised at the
life and activity and the building opera.
tions going on. Big four and five story
brick Iblocks are going up that would be
a credit to any city in the country. The
Great Northern depot will be a fine
stone structure, with a big tower, and 6
clock. Yes, the wheat crop now being
harvested is elegant. l am glad to
know it is so fine on the Missouri slope
and I notice great fields Of corn. Il
looks nice. The state board of equal
ization meets this week. We have the
returns from all the counties on person
al property and from all but Mcintosh
and Logan counties on real estate.
Washburn Leader: John D. Mack anc
