me Naronic's Life-boats are Picked Tn bv
Passing Vessel

wa II IIckf1 Tn hy
aPassing Vessel.
AFTER long-contlnued anxiety 70.
gardlng the fate of the White Sta,
line steamer Naronic, which sailed
from Liverpool, Feb. II, for New
YORK, and which had not since been
heard of, intelligence has been re-.
ceived showing beyond a doubt that
the vessel is lost.
The british steamer Coventry.
capt. Wilson, from Fernandina. Feb,
~, has arrived at Bremen. She
reports that at 2 o'clock in the morn.
ing OF March 4, when in lat. AZ north.
long. AS west, she passed a life boat
painted white, bearing the name
'Naionic.' The boat was floating
keel upward. At . o'clock in the
afternoon OF the same day another
life boat from the Naronic was
passed. This boat gave evidence Of
having encountered heavy weather.
The mast and oars of the life boat
mad been dashed together and
attached to the painter, and then
thrown overheard as a sea anchor to
keep the boats head up to the wind
and sea. Judging from appearances
neither OF the boats had been long
adrift. The position of the drifting
boats was about south by west OF
Sable Island on the banks of New
foundland. There is a chance that
the occupants of the boat were
picked ur by a passing vessel.
Officials Of the White Star Line
Company at Liverpool have received
the full report of the steamer Gov
entry which arrived at Bremen.
They state their advices show that
the last life boat Of the Naronic
passed by the Coventry was recently
occupied by a portion of the Naronic's
crew and they expressed the hope
that the occupants had been picked
up by a passing vessel. They also
expressed the hope that the occu-
pants Of the other boats had been
rescued. All doubt az to the fate of
the Naronic has been dispellsd by
the sighting Of her life boats. That
she is now at the bottom of the ocean
cannot be disputed, but the cause of
the disaster is, Of course, still a
matter Of conjecture. 1t may be,
judging from the latitude and longi-
tuCe in which the boats were seen,
that the steamer struck either a
derelict or an iceberg, though it is
still rather early in the season for ice
to be adrift so far south as the banks.
1t is hoped that the mystery of the
loss Of the steamer will soon be
cleared up by the landing at some
mort of members of her crew.

NORTH DAKOTA NEWS.

District Attorney Cowan closed all
the blind pigs at Church's Ferry,
giving the proprietors the alternative
OF being prosecuted or leaving the
county. Dispositions were made by
sixteen citizens, sufficient TO secure
conviction.
The recent visit of James G. Blaine,
Jr., to North Dakota was for the
purpose Of seeing about the title of
thirty-seyen and a half acres OF land
near Pembina, which belongs TO tie
family. The title Is imperfect, and
he is trying to straighten it out.
Gov. Shortridge has approved the
bill for the state elevator at Duluth
or Superior. He regards it far from
being perfect, yet hopes it may lead
to some practical scheme for pro-
tecting the interests of the grain
growers of the northwest. The
governor has approved the vital
statistics bill, and allows the bill
requiring the use of Dakota coal in
all state, county, town and school
buildings to become a law without
his signature; also the Glendale in
dustrial school and the bill relating
to drainage. This clears up all
bills sent him by the legislature.
The most important of all failed
-one because it was stolen, and one
for lack of the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
signature, and the other through the
carelessness of the enrolling COM
mittee.
