The Chautauqua Assembly.

The question as towhether the perma-
nent Chautauqua assembly shall be
located at Spirltwood lake or not is a
matter which is now largely in
the hands of citizens OF jamestown.
1t would be a nice thing to
have near us, and If it should be
located there would be standing ad-
vertisement Of Jamestown. It would do
more to make this city known abroad
than any other thing / can think of. But
there is another side to the
question. Whatever place succeeds
in getting it will have to bear
q large proportion Of the financial res
possibility which will have to be as.
sumed in order to make it a success.
The original Chautauqua had all the
advantages of being located in the
midst Of thickly populated country, yet
it was not able to pay expenses for quite
Q number Of years. Still I am OF the
opinion that it will pay jamestown to
make strenuous efforts to capture this
prize, provided she is willing to wait for
tho money returns.

Railroad Rumbllngs.

NJ. Lynch ''is little new at the busl-

Mike will learn, however, they say.
Considerable trouble is being caused
trainmen by tramps breaking car seals
while the trains are at the stations. A
good many pieces Of lost freight have
been reported.
Roadmaster Fletcher says firebreaks
are now being constructed along this
division of the Northern Pacific. Five
furrows are plowed on each side of the
track, 200 feet distant, and the interven-
ing space is then burned over, affording
ample protection. This is done to pre-.
vent damage to adjacent fields from
sparks, and also to protect the bridges
and roadbed of the company from pass
ing prairie fires.

Judge Standish's Address.

The address of Hon. W. H. Standish
of Nelson county, at the courthouse
Monday night was closely followed, by
fair audience, composed OF all parties.
Mr.. Standish does not claim to be a
fluent orator. or gifted public speaker,
but his earnestness is unquestioned and
his speech brought out many important
matters for consideration in q different
light from which they are generally
treated. He dealt with questions Of
tinance,and national issues as regarded by
:he peoples party. He made many points
that were we'll received by his hearers.
His address was a plea for change IN
national legislation in the interests OF
the laboring and agricultural classes.
The interest with which the speaker was
followed showed the great desire to
receive information on the questions dis
cussed, and readiness to Investigate
any remedy proposed.

Returned with Her Husband.


Mrs. DR.. Graham OF Forest River, the
lady who was sick at tie Gladstone for
several days, returned to her home. ac-
companied by her husband. The cause
Of the rady's disappearance from her
home, which was reported recently in
The Alert, AZ presenting several sensa-
tional features is still mystery. She
has been slowly recovering since her
arrival here, aud the intention of placing
her under the care of DR.. Archibald at
the hospital was soon abandoned.
1t was reported that during her ab.
sence since July she had spent nearly
81, 600, drawn from bank on her hus-
bands note. This was incorrect. Some
5000 were found in her possession after
arrival here. The lady is greatly dis
tressed at the anxiety she has caused her
devoted husband and friends, and left
for her home resolving to stay there in
the future. Detectives have been
shadowing her movements for sometime,
unknown to her, and reward for her
discovery had been offered.

The greatest of all shows this year will
be the Minneapolis Industrial Exposi-

be the best display ever within the walls
of the building. The whole world has
been ransacked for novelties that will not
only please, but instruct as we'll. The.

Of the scientific age, and it is only within
the past few years that anything definite

Police P,ckings.

Sunday was day Of rows and much
material for the police court abounded.
During the morning Officer Gleason at
tempted to arrest two men, for attempt.
ing to hold up A. NJ. ClouRh. One Of
the men, who gives his name as Steve
Reynolds, was captured and put in the
city Jail. The other escaped. Both re-.
sisted the officer and Capt Gleason had
a tough time for few minutes, as the
two men were proving too much for
him. The officer was struck in the eye
hard blow, but received the assistance
OF bystanders and landed his man. The
men were begging money on the streets,
while having money in their possession.
The party who escaped carried away q
sum of money handed him by his partner
while resisting arrest.
Another row occurred in the afternoon
and James Murphy, or man giving such
name, is languishing in the jug for his
propensities to SCRAP" His victim is E.
Holyoke, peaceable farm hand, who
has been working on the Mulholland
place near town. Holyoke was knocked
down and stamped upon by Murphy and
bis countenance this morning is badly
disigured in consequence. He was re.
leased from custody and considerable
sympathy is felt for him as he was badly
pounded.

of the alleged culprits to appear at the

name, We have the highest regard, it
being vouched for by such distinguished
gentlemen as Hon. James F. O'Brien, a
memberof the constitutional convention
of the state, and a mild blue eye and
somewhat carmine moustache, whom
it is said is likely to be the nominee of
the democracy for congress. Then, too,
our esteemed friond and former cola
borer. Hon. James V. Brooke, vouches
for the high character Of the lady, and
Jimmy is a gentleman, whose good
opinion is worth having. And also comes
Colonel Lounsberry, who volunteers
kindly words for Bertha, whom he has
known for long time With the testi-
mony Of such gallant and distinguished
trio of gentlemen, to say nothing of
others-we feel sure that nothing more
could be asked. We reget exceedingly
that more has been asked-but we will
be there-having again given bonds to
secure temporary release from the ma
jesty of the law, as encompassed within
the towering presence OF Sheriff Wagness

JAMESTOWN AGAIN DEFEATED
The Baseball Boys Lose
Another Game With
Cooperstown.
A Special Train Takes The
Crowd to Witness The
Contest.
Police Court Items-Tramps
Causing Lots Of Trouble
in jamestown.

when ll6 AlorJ WenG 10 press IIl-
day afternoon, the jamestown boys
seemed to have an excellent chance Of
winning the baseball game at Coopers-
town. They led from the start and we're
playing strong game, with bright pres
poets OF success. But fate decreed
another defeat. Errors in the seventh
and eighth innings lost them the ex-
pected victory, and the battle ended in
favor of Cooperstown by score Of l3
to 8.
Both clubs were made up Of the same
material as when they met in this city
last Monday, except the change of'one
man each. jamestown played Burke in
the place of Marrell, in the right field,
and Cooperstown had Shaw in center
field, IN the place Of Will Sinclair. The
same batteries participated Nielsen and
Nashold for Jamestown, A. Sinclair and
Mcdaniel for Oooperstown-and both
did effective WORK. Nashold struck out
Is men, and Mcdaniel five. Nelson
worked faithfully behind the bat, and
suffered only one passed ball. Briggs
played first base in his usual 1irstclaes
form, but made two errors, one'of which
cost ran. Walters was on
second base and Buck on third,
with Marion Nashogd as short stop.
Proctor, Poole and Burke looked after
tho outfeld. The game was Impired By
McMahon OF Hope, and D. Ward Ken
nedy Of jamestown.
Cooperstown went to bat first, and
failed to sco.e. Jamestown followed with
three runs. In the second inning
Cooperstown got aEother goose egg, and
jamestown enc run. In the third neither
club scored. The fourth inning gave
Cooperstown one run, and Jamestown
eeose-ege. In the fifth, the game got
interesting, the clubs making two runs
each. The sixth inning gave Coopers-
town two moro runs and Jamestown q
cipher. The seventh added three runs
to Cooperstown's credit, While James
town scored but one, and dropped one
score behind in the race. In the eighth
inning. jamestown went to pieces. Buck,
N. Nashold and Burke each made an
error, the latter "muHing" ty and let
ting three men cross the plate. A total
OF four runs was scored by Cooperstown
in this inning, while Jamestown was
shut out. The boys beaced up again IN
the nintin, and held Cooperstown to one
run, but they were unable to recover the
lost ground, and gave up the ghoet after
scoring two runs in the last halt OF the
last inning.
The game was not for the Leland cup,
as it could not :be contested for under
the rules, and there was not even purse
in controversy-bu quite a sum OF
money was bet on both clubs, the bulk
OF which was lost by friends of the James
town boys. The latter were considerably
depressed over their defeat, but accepted
the result gracefully and say they will
atry, try again They returned home
in good spirits, and the special
train was greeted at the depot by large
crowd. Arrangements are already under
way for the third game in the series, and
il both clubs work with as much vigor as
they did Friday, it will be battle
royal.

gentleman largely interested in Everett
the Press. Times says: William Bulge Of
Grand Forks, N. D., who has been in
Seattle all winter, left this morning for
Okanogan, where he is interested IN a
mine. Mr.. Bulge is a banker at Grand
Forks, aud during his stay here last win
ter has made several investments. He
purchased an interest in the mine which
he is now going to visit. Development
work this spring has shown that the
mine was far richer than was at first ex-
pected, and Mr.. Bulge has been offered
handsome advance over the amount
paid for the mine. There is, in fact,
enough ore ON the dump to pay the orig
:nal purchase price Of the mine. 1t is
located five miles from Osoyoos lake, but
already company has been formed to
build railroad from the mine to the
lake, where the ore can be shipped by
steamer to the smelter. Mr.. Bulge went
to Ellensburg, and from there he will 20
horseback to Okanogan.
Devils Lake Free Press: Mr.. G..

ceilings and shingle roofs for which the
material is furnished by the government.
They vary in size FROM one to six rooms
and none are over story and half.
They are. built in { very substantial
