Seeding IN LaMoure County.

Seeding in LaMoure county will be
about completed by the end of the week
if rains do not intervene to delay work.
Wheat is nearly all in the ground and
farmers are beginning to SOW oats, barley
and flax with here and there a few acres
of rye The fine weather of the last ten
days has fully been taken adyantage OF
by all having land to seed. In recent
trip down the James river valley into
LaMoure county. several fields of wheat
we're noticed which showed nicely above
the ground. Early sown, and in fact all
sown grain, seems to be coming on fully
as fast as the grass which has shot up so
rapidly since the first Of the month.
Outside of the river valley proper, on the
uplands, about five per cent of the land,
it is estimated, is too wet to seed to
wheat but will be sown later on to other
crops where practicable. In great
many cases the wet places are scattered
through the plowed land in such man
ner as to be unavailable for seeding to
other crops when sufficiently dry, but
where possible the ground will be put in
to oats, barley or some early maturing
crop. All affirm that not since 1882 has
there been so much water standing on
the prairies. Allowsnc ce is made for the
fact that at that date very little OF the
coil had been put under cultivation and
an excessive quantity OF moisture was
not so noticeable as at present.

Elevator Companies Happy.

Minneapolis Market Record: The late
opening of navigation is good thing for
elevator stockholders at Duluth, whether
it is for vesselmen or not. The owners of
the wheat stored in Duluth elevators do
not relish it, however. There are sixteen
millions and more bushels of wheat
stored in the elevators now. Winter
storage on all this wheat expires May Is.
Ordinarily large amount Of wheat is
shipped out before that date, and no
more storage charges accumulate for the
holder of wheat to pay. This year not a
bushel will get out OF the elevators be-
fore that date, and after the 18th half
cent will be added to the elevator charges
on the 100000 bushels. The extra
charges will amount to $4,000. OF
course, with the early opening OF naviga-
ton the larger proportion of the wheat
would still remain on the 18th, but it is
safe to cay that at least $4,000 will find
its way into the hands OF the elevator
companies because the winter stayed with
US 60 long.

Wanted Alimony.

Further interest in the sensational case
Of the Roderick family developed last
week in suit by the woman, Mrs. Alice
A. Clark, for divorce from Mr.. Clark,
and demand of $50 9 month and $50
attorneys fee. The petition was refused
by Judge Rose, who stated that it was the
desire Of the court at all times to afford
protection and aid to deserving women
who have entered into unfortunate
marital relations, but in this case the
court could see no reason for granting the
relief deslred. The case was heard Satur-
day last and some OF the testimony was
rather spicy. Several witnesses were
procured who testified to the occupancy
Of one room by Roderick and Mrs. Clark
on several occasions, and it 10 we'll un-

last February has proved remarkly sue
cessful. This was an unusual operation
and has been attended with good success
demonstrating the skill with which l! was
performed. The work was done at the
asylum with the assistance of Doctors
Archibald and Moore. About eight
inches OF the interior of the right leg
bone, below the knee, were excavated.
This portion was diseased, resulting
from an old injury. The space excavated
was filed with decalcited bone chips.
The healing has been excellent and the
patient is now walking without the aid
of either cane or crutch.

aged Governor Shortridge to hope for
this result. All classes in the west, he
says, are seriously considering this ques-
ton and demanding the legislation in
the interests OF this section as against
the money power and monopolists of
Wall street and New-England. The silver
question will, in the governors opinion,
override all other issues in this country
soon. Ever since silver was denonetized
in 1873, panics, loss of business, and the
constant depreciation Of wheat and farm
products have been going on in sympa-
thy with and largely resulting from the
depreciation of silver. He says the de-
mand for the purchase of gold and the
project of issuing bonds comes not from
the people OF this country, but from the
agents of foreign money syndicates and
the eastern bankers.

Bible Society Officers.

The annual meeting of the jamestown
branch of the American Bible society
was held Thursday at the Presbyterian
church. The report of the treasurer
showed quite an increase last year, in
the sale Of bibles as compared with pre-
vious years. In seeking still further
to extend the work of the society IN the
city and surrounding community, it was
resolved that union meeting of the
different churches, should be held
once year, and that two ladies'
from each church be appointed
to visit the various homes of
the city, IN the interests of bible cir
culation. 1t was decided also to have an
offering from each church sometime
durlng this month on behalf of the
society, and that an additional $50 be
expended in the purchase OF more bibles.
The following officers were elected for
the ensuing year:
President, E. NJ. Sanford; vice presi-
dent, DR.. E. NJ. Johnson; treasurer, G.
Hensel; secretary, H. B. Allen; executive
committee, DR.. D. B. McLain, together
with the various pastors of the city.
The book store or depository of the
society is at G. Hensel's, where bibles IN
English. German. Danish, Norwegian,
etc., can be had in various types and
bindings.

mittee was also empowered to employ
Mr.. Tilden, or some other competent per.
son, to supsrinterd the improvements;

unanimously.
In this connection, the city marshal
was directed to notify H. B. Wood and
other owners OF exposed hydrsnts, used
in washing carriages on the streets, to
abate said nuisance forthwith. r. Gains
forth asked permission to use hydrant
for washing ice, on the street, but Alder
man Blood objected, and it is evident
that the council intends. if possible, to
stop the forming OF ponds and mud holes
on the streets.
On motion of Alderman Wells, the city
attorney was instructed to confer with
Superintendent Wilson of the Northern
Pacific, in regard to securing deed of
right of way for the road west Of the coal

Mayor Steel called attention to the
necessity for sprinkling the streets dur.
ing the summer, but action was deferred.
The mayor also called attention to the
portable photograph gallery located On
Main street, and It's owner, Mr.. Logan,
was present for the purpose of securing
permit to occupy the site for three
weeks. Alderman Wells said ;nasmuch
as the owner of the gallery could not be
compelled to pay license, he was op-
posed to granting any favors to an out
slider coming into competition with
home industries. Alderman Blood was
opposed to obstructinR the streets.
Other objections were raised, and Mr..
Logan notified to locate his shadow
machine elsewhere.
