Monday afternoon that the Common.
wealth safe had been opened and the

the American Humane Education So
ciety, Mrs. j. NJ. Bartholomew, of Bis
marck, a lady we'll known to many of
our Edgeley people, was here last Fri
day and Saturday to try and organize a
society. It was so late before the word
went out that very few responded to her
invitation, but she explained her views
and manner of work to the few, and it is
thought there will soon be a good work.

"Trlb" Harris had a narrow escape
from serious injury yesterday. He and
another gentleman of color had a dis
agreement of which some one of the
gentler sex was the cause, and in the
row a razor was pulled, and Trib's shirt,

side. There was but one witness to the
trouble, a woman, and as she did not
wish to be called up as a witness, Trib
CALAMITY acquiesced in her request that
no prosecution be made.

deal by the Fargo fire, my personal loss
consisting of nearly all my clothing; my
library, consisting of very rare and costly
books Of fine art, theology, etc.; a large
number Of beautiful pictures and an ele.
CANT Weber piano, besides fine furni-
ture, china and silver ware; all these
consumed by the destructive fire."
Alderman Healy: Yes, we had q good
time down in Chicago. Its a good show.
Our family reunion was, of course, the
greatest pleasure. There was eighteen

States. We had not met before for
many years. We shall meet again five
years hence. I tell you every person
who can spare the time and money
ought to take in the Worlds Fair. It is
beyond all anticipation. 1 met many
Bismarckers and North Dakotans at the
fair.
