\ A:O.OOO Fire.

ST.. PArL. August B. Twenty one
horses and one COW were burned to death
at three o'clock this morning in the de
struction Of James \. Ballard's express
barn. located in the rear of 151 Carroll
street. The loss is about f!OOO and in
surance $1,000.
How the fire originated no one knows.
but the people in the neighborhood
were aroused by the noise made by the
horses in their endeavors to escape the
blaze: As quickly as possible several
people made their way to the burning
barn and succeeded in liberating three
horses. They were unable to do more.
for the fire spread with such rapidity
that the wouldbe rescuers were driven
away When the fire department reached
the spot the barn was mass Of flame
from top to bottom. the hay and other
intiammable material aiding largely in
the rapid progress Of the flames.

An Old Pacific Coast Engine.

Perhaps few of the people know that a
very antique engine is lying useless b..-

in the early part Of the last decade. and
when the fireman wanted to put in any
fuel the tra:: had to be stopped while
the fireman put i,i wood at the front OF
the engine. as the door of the furnace Is
situated there. This engine ran between

eleven inches of snow on the ground,
with very little sunshine and low tenn
perature. The Richland county CORE.
spondent says that the ground is still too
wet for any seeding, and some snow still
remains. The Red river was within
twelve inches of the high water mark of
1883 last Saturday, and prospects are
that the low lands will be seeded late.
Stark county reports light snowfall and
stormy weather ID the middle of the
week, clearing toward the close, but no
see ding done as yet. Stevens county
will be seeding in week, while in Stuts-
man farmers are busy getting ready for
work. In the southern part of the coun-
ty plowing has commenced, and the cor.
respondent says that the prospects for
crops is as good as ever seen. In Walsh
county the ground is still frozen,
although with favorable weather the
ground will be in condition in about q
week.

DISASTROUS STORMS
Reported From the States of Iowa,
Illinois, Nebraska, Kansas and
Missouri
Iowa the Heaviest Suherer-Several
Towns Demolished-Loss
of Life.
North Dakota's Senator Will Not Be
Investigated Until the Regu-
lar Session.
The Track of the storm.

CHICAGO, April 12.-Last nights wind
wrought such havoc with the telegraph
wires that 1t is almost impossible to cb-
tain full particulars. The destruction
seems to have been general aud wide-
spread in the states of Iowa, Illinois.
Nebraska, Kansas and Missouri.
Probably the greatest damage was
done in Iowa, along the line of the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & st. Paul railroad. In
Iowa and Nebraska the storm cut wide
swath.
The town of Akron in the former state
was wrecked, and Whitfield, few miles
distant, badly demoralized. Continuing
along the railroad, into Nebraska, the
storm swept up farm buildings, fences
and bridges, and finally swooped down
upon the town of Page, which it wreck
ed. At this point there is loss of life
reported.
From Kansas news is very meagre. It
is known that the town of Parker was
struck by the cyclone and that tue resi-
dence portion of the village was almost
completely destroyed. Several persons
are reported killed and number seri.
ously injured. The towns of Willis and
Powhattan, short distance south OF
Hiawatha, are wiped out.
In Missouri the towns of haywood,
Page City and Higginsville we're wrecked
and all along the route the houses were
blown down, outhouses and fences de.
stroyed and many cattle killed. At Page
City, William Walker and his two little
children were killed. At Staheberry g
number of houses were wrecked. VIM
Ward. Il cOlored man. was killed and his
wife fatally Injured.
The storm seems to have been general
throughout the west and south, extend.
ing down into Texas and north to Da
kota.
In Illinois the cloud burst occurred al
various places, the most destructive be-
ing at Centralia, where the water rose tc
the height of three feet in the streets.

Fears Entertained That Fargo Will
Be Iuundated-The Red Still
Rising.
The Ice on the River Still Intact
But the Breakup Expected
Tomorrow.
More Appointments and Among
Them the Commissioner of
Indian Affairs.
Fargo's Predicalnent.

FARGO, April 11.-From early this
morning ram has poured down steadily
and the outlook is that it will continue
for the next twenty.four hours. The
Red river is already swollen out of it's
banks, and rose steadily all day at the
rate of three inches an hour, and now
good portion of Island park is flooded.
The river is the highest it has been for
several years and the worst is yet to
come.
The ice has not yet begun to move,
but will probably break up to night and
disastrous gorges are feared. Several
barns and out-buildings near the river
are under water and the Island park
wagon bridge has been carried away. If
the water rises another foot the city
water works will be inundated.
A dispatch from WaLpeton states that
the river has reached its highest point
there and begun to subside. According
to reports from upriver points it is pre-
dicted that the river at this point will
still rise several feet. The people on
the lowlands are ready for any emer.
gency. Grand Forks has been wired to
prepare for trouble. The railroads have
taken measures to protect the bridges
here by using dynamite in the ice jams.

Weekly bulletin Re.umed i.

The publication of the weekly weather
crop bulletin by the state weather ser
vice was resumed Tuesday, and the
nrst bulletin of the season was issued.
Since the appropriation of money from
the state to establish state crop SER
vice, the department feels on q tirmer
financial basis than heretofore, aud the
bulletin will hereafter be neatly printed,
on single sheet, and contain general
remarks as to the characteristics OF the
weather, with special remarks from cor
respondents in the several counties. The
reports from the several counties are es-
peclal'y interesting now, as seeding is
about to begin. Barnes county reports
OF late spring, with the ground still
wet and cold, and covered in many
places with snow. In Burleigh the
weather has been more favorable, pre-
parations for spring work have begun,
and considerable plowing and seeding
have been done. Cass, on the other
hand, is backward, no seeding having
been done yet, and the ground being still
covered with snow. Dickey county re-
ports very little precipitation during the
week, aud not more than 100 acres of
ground seeded, as the land ls still too
wet. Griggs county is much the same,
the weather cold and backward, no seed
ing done, and only small amount of
blowing and narrowing. Only on high
land is the frost sufficiently out of the
ground to permit cultivation. Logan,
TOO, is backward, although il is said
seeding will begin in earnest this week.
norton holds up tho reputation ct the
west Missouri, the weather being favor
"Dle and farmers busy with seeding and
other spring work. In Oliver county,
Inc weather is highly favorable, and
everyone is preparing the ground for
seeding. In Pembina, the oorre-
spondent reports still an average of
