should and will probably be something
worth seeing,

there until Monday. Surveyor Earold
who left here by rail Friday, expecting
to meet his party there, was forced tc
await three days for their arrival. They
were delayed by washouts and baG
roads, resulting from the heavy rains Of
last week.
The friends and relatives of the late E
L. Strauss gathered at his residence at 2
p. m. Thursday, to pay their last respects
to one who will be sadly missed in q bus
mess and social way in this city. Father
Martin presided over the funeral exer.
cises, upon the completion Of which the
body was followed by the large numbers
of friends to its final resting place.
A sad looking man with a fearful face,
a sad smile and a fierce look in his eye,
inquired for Marshal Mckenzie, yester'
day. He had a large, burdensome load
of trouble to deposit somewhere, and he
wanted something done to prevent the
oppression of the weak by the strong. He
reminded one of a large, silverine jag
with fringes on 1t. How he succeeded in
his philanthropical mission is not known.
Pembina Democrat: Our old friend
R. D. Hoskins asked us to remember
him to all Pembina county people-re-
gardless of politics, religion or previous
condition of servitude. He loves the
county and would be glad to see any or
all of her inhabitants at any time in Bis
marck, and will do all he car for any
visiting there at any time. We wv him
many thanks for favors shown while
there.
Fargo Forum: Senator J. H. Worst
came in from Bismarck this morning.
! The senator was enjoying the peaceful
| sleep when the train passed Fargo, nor
did he wake until Lake Park was
reached. He returned on the next train,
and to say that he was mad, does not
half express it. The senator is sched-
uled to speak at Rolla on Wednesday
night aid is now wondering how he can
make connections.

understood that Dan Williams is now
doing the continent leisurely and thor
oughly. With headquarters at London
and Paris he will, before his return to
America, take in all points of interest in
Europe. Mr.. Williams is accompanied

meridian sixteen. Mr.. Alvord's party

work, Messrs. Mills and Talcott will
take up permanent residences in this
city.
The following conversation, which
took place in one of the we'll known Of
fees of the city, Tuesday is worthy of
record: A stranger who seemed to be
yearning with a great longing, for in
formation opened the door of the said
office and looked in, els this the -'s
Officer? he asked. mo SIT, next door,
was his answer. "But he is out" said
the stranger. "Then he is probably not
in" answered the. official, and the
stranger looked at him, stunned for a
moment, AND then closed the door,
while the radiant light of a dawning
intelligence glistened on his counter:
ance like q dewdrop on the petal of g
red rose.
Ed. Sloan: We are ~endeavoring tc
have a road made, around by way of the
reservoir to Wards farm, and thence
along the river to the landing. By &c
doing, it will be a delightful drive to an6
from the landing, for, instead Of return
ing by the same road you 20 on, you car
drive there by the track, thence up tt
Wards and home by way of the reser.
voir. If We can enlist the people in thu
measure, the work can be done quickl,
and without much expense, at least, no
