In the United States district court at
Fargo, Alexander Helmsworth of Man
dan, plead guilty to the charge Of send
ing obscene postal cards through the
mails to Chas. w. Cushman at Duluth,
and a he appeared to be penitent,
Judge Thomas let him off with a fine of
$50. Marshal Price brought the prisoner
back to Mandan Sunday.
Taylor Crum in his address to the
court: Il regret that a newspaper, sup
posed to be friendly to the defendant
Healy, should have made u%tterances
which l almost consider contemptuous.
But [ have never heard Of such outrage
GUS contempt Of court in the persons of
bailitfs as appears from the affidavits of
the jurors themselves"
J. N. Brundage: I noticed a very Pc
culiar phenomenon Monday. On the
south side of an unoocupied building the
snow was melting, and on the north side a
thermometer registered IL degrees below
zero. Here is a difference of about so
degrees between the sun and shade,
which indicates how much Importance
the sun is to mankind.
While playing on Fourth street Sun
day, Charley Noon, a boy who is attend
ing St. Mary's school, and whose par
ents reside in the northern part of the
county, was struck on the head with a
beer bottle by some n whom he does
not know, but whom he thinks was in
toxicated. The boy wa pretty severely
hurt, and his assailant should be hunted
up and prosecuted.
Arson Northrop, whose claim is on
the reservation, has had considerable
trouble to prove up on his homestead.
The land Office refused proof on account
of his not living on his claim prior to the
date of proof, although he had served
the required time previous. Attorney
Register took an appeal to the land COM
missioner and won, and now it seems a
mistake in the description will cause
further delay.
DR.. Slaughter was before the insane
board Tuesday, and as a result was
taken to jamestown last night to receive
treatment under DR.. Archibald. Tt is
said that the brain affection from which
he has so long suffered arose from the
injuries received in the army, and for
which he is pensioned. He has realized
his condition, and it was by his own re-
quest that he was sent to the hospital
for treatment.
W. o. Tuohy, an old-time Bismarcker,
but now the Northern Pacifc's agent at
Butte, one of the most responsible posi-
tiops on the line, passed through the
city Sunday night with his family Ell
route to St. Paul. Mrs. Tuohy will
visit her old home in Kentucky and Mr..
Tuohy will return to Butte this week.
He met a few friends at the train and
had time to say that Quinn, Williams,
Duane, and other old-time Bismarckers
are doing we'll in Butte.
Chas. M. Cushman, the we'll known
former Bismarcker and manager of the
Hayes farm, but now a resident and real
estate agent and all around boomer for
West Duluth, arrived in the city Sunday.
He comes up to look after some inter-
ests he has here and to pay his taxes.
Mr., Cushman gives glowing accounts Of
Duluth's growth and the probabilities of
the future-particularly the development
of the great iron industry. Some recent
discoveries are the richest in the world.
Ed. Sloan: You a say that I feel
very grateful to my friends, and especial
ly to Agent Davidson, through whose
kilograms, I believe, the management of
the road on which poor Frank Muggy
was killed, we're prompted to act. The
company sent the body to Kenosha, Wis,
for burial and seems to have done every
thing possible to do in the matter. We
have since received fuller particulars
about the killing of Frank. 1t seems
his foot got caught in a frog and he
couldn't get out of the way of the cars.
A Huntsville, Alabama, dispatch says
"The North Alabama Improvement
company has sold and transferred al,
their properties to the Northwestern
Land association, of Pierre, S. D. Il
was the largest deal made in the south
for some years, involving the transfer o.
upwards Of $4,000, 900 worth of property
} This is of local interest because of tn.
, fact that Miss Lizzie Comerford of thil
city is one of the stockholders, and il
the deal exchanges considerable Soutf
Dakota property for stock in the nev
l enterprise.
A Missoula, Montana, dispatch of tn
18th inst. says: II g. Denney, a promi
