wrestling with a centrifugal pump which
was brought over from Mandan the day
after the storm, succeeded this
morning in getting the upper

As o o as the basement is drained,
the work Of repair will begin. The area
walls, or at least a good part OF them,
have to be rebuilded and one or two
partition walls in the basement will
have to be replaced. The cleaning out
of debris from the cellar will also oc.

hors de combat, and cannot be repaired
until the area walls of the building are
replaced.

Senator McGillivray and Major Fleming
are interested in a find of building stone
which has been made neal Dickinson,
and had a sample of it with them yester-
day, which they intend to send along to
Washington, to accompany a bid for the
erection of the Fargo public building.
The stone is said to be equal. if not sup
erior to granite, very heavy, and suscep-
tible of high polish. A house is beng
erected by Senator McGillivray in Dick
inson from the material, and it is said
to be unexcelled for building qualities.
The deposit of the stone is large, and
efforts will be made to introduce it
throughout the state. 1t will prove a
valuable resource to the western part of
the state, if it's use becomes general.

Saturday night Mr.. Treat was sitting in
the DINING room reading. Some one en-
tered from the Kitchen, toward which his
back was turned, and struck leirU nine
times on the head and neck with n ii.@ chet.
His sister, in the sitting room adj lining,
heard the blows and came to her brothers
aid She called Bertha, her daughter, who
was in the kitchen, and together they as
sisted the man up stairs. When he Was
put to bed, he said that Bertha, his niece,
must leave the room, as she intended to
kill him.
A dulled and blood Ratchet was found
in the kitchen. Mr. Treats skull was pene-
trated TO the brain in five places, and Dr.
Erskins removed several large pieces of
bone, one of which was two inches square
The family kept the assault a secret until
Monday, and even now Mr.. Treats son,
who has come on from New York, refuses
to say word about the assault. Mrs Treat
is unusually reticent, and DR.. Ersllins, lips
are sealed. Miss Bertha, who is dumb,
cannot be induced to write her version of
the affair, even under the threat-of arrest.

EVANS IN JAIL.
Surrendered Because He Would Not Fire
on Old Friends.

FOLSOM, Cal, Feb 22.-Chris Evans, the
notorious bandit, is -, last within prison
walls Evans said he went to his home i'll
Nisalia mostly to rest from She tramp in
the hills and partly to see his children, and
that he had been betrayed by George Byrd
and his mother to the sheriff Of Tuiare
county.
When Evans saw so many old friends
and neighbors assembled around his house,
he did not have the heart to fire on them.
Morrell left the question of surrender
tirely to Evans judgment The cabin i'll
the hills, discovered and destroyed by Sher-
itf SCOTS posse, was built 10y Evans and
Somtag year ago, and Sheriff Scott would
never have discovered its location if he had
not been told by some false friend.
On his arrival at the prison Evans was
given a bath, had his beard and hair shaved
and was attired in prison garb He was
allowed five minute interview with his
wife, in which he showed more feeling than
she did. She wore il determined express
sion, and all the way up she regretted that
he had surrendered, saying he ought to
have stood up like a man and fought to the
death. George SOntag, limping around
the yard, smiled grimly when he saw Evans
going to the barber shop.

DUEL TO THE DEATH.
That Will BE, 1t Is Said, Sequel to the
Gilbert Santa Maria Trial.

PARIS, Feb. ga duel has been al
ranged to take place next week between
Mr.. Audinet Gilbert of New York and Sc
nor Bon SIanuel del Pilarde Santa Maria,
who went to New York from this city in
order to testify in favor of Mrs. Annie Il.
Gilbert, who brought suit against her hus-
band for legal separation. Mr.. Gilbert had
previously accused his wife of improper i'll
timacy with Santa Maria The New York
court decided in favor of Mrs. Gilbert.
1t is said in American circles here that
the duel between Mr.. Gilbert and NJ Santa
Maria will be fought o the death. A well
known American, who is an authority
upon such matters and who is now in
France, expressed the opinion that it would
be the greatest accident if either of the
principals was hit.
Continuing, the American gentleman re-
ferred to stated that the seconds of Mr..
Gilbert and NJ. Santa Maria had decided
that pistols were the weapons to be used
and that they were to be fired at a distance
of 65 feet. 1t is added t'Aat only one shot
will be fired, and that the words of COM
mand to fire, "One, two, three" will be
given in such quick success2r that the
principals will have no time to9tke aim.
The American gentleman said i'll conclu-
sion that it scldom happens chat such shots
tell, even if fired in earnest. Swords, in
his opinion, We're the only weapons which
should be employed by men wEo mean
business.

A Much Advertised Lion breaks Loos
Among the Audience.

CHICAGO, Feb. %. ~ Wallace. the 500
pound lion which is on exhibition at Il
dime museum, where he is advertised as
the terrible untamed wonder of the
world" escaped from his keeper and
bounded among crowded audience in the
museum. The theater was crowded from
the stage railing to the rear DOORS fully
500 people being present
When the animal went trotting up the
aisle toward the rear of the thcater, whip
ping his tail from side to side, swapping
and roaring, there was the Widest kind of
scramble among the men, women and
children of the audience. The people not
only sought place of safety at the exit of
the theater, but dashed up over the stage.
Others threw their children upon the
stage, and crowding up after them dragged
them by one arm down a narrow stairway
and hid themselves in bins and boxes in
the basement and behind the dressing
rooms of the performers. One man appeal
ingly offered stagchand big roll of bills
if he would only lead him to place of
safety.
The lion was driven back to his cage
without difficulty. Wallace is the same
lion that caused the scare in New York

Clty.
NAUGATUCK. Feb 22.-The whistles
sounded an alarm this morning at 3 o'clock
for fire in the cellar of Andrews block,
corner of Church street and Rubber avenue.
The building was occupied by four families
above and the first floor by the grocery
store of H. H. Scotield and market of A.
E. Curtiss. The cellar was divided into
six compartments, in one of which was
q lot of old bedding. rags, etc,
The fire originated in this stuff. 1t spread
to the partitions and under the side of the
floor, the flames coming out of the rear
cellar door. The smoke went up through
the building and the families were warned
out by the iremen who, owing to the par
titions had difficulty in reaching the fire.
The damage to the building and to the
stock in the store, from smoke will mount
to considerable.
Quite a number from here attended the
masquerade ball at Union City last night.
Hard having settled with all his credi-
tors, will stock up with new goods soon.
Quarantine was removed to-day from the
house of Walter Brooks, Calvin street, also

The patients have recovered from scarlet
fever, but will not go to work for some
days yet.

that Joseph Opoluski had died from in

The man was slightly injured, but will be
all right in a day or two.

Long Expected Encounter.
RIO DE JANEIEo, Feb 23.-The rebel
cruiser Aqudaban left the bay in order to
join the rebel warship Repuhlicn, having
on board, according TO report, Admiral de
Mello. Yhe AQuidahan got under way dur
ing the darkness, and at speed of eight
knots she steamed through the channel
and toward the harhur entrance as if no
such things as tOrpedOes and submarine
mines We're in existence.
When rearing the forts at the entrance
of the bay, the rebel snip was discovered,
and the garriSons being called to arms
hot fire was soon directed upon her, but
the Aquidaban steamed steadily ahead and
succeeded in passing the forts, although
she was struck several times. The forts
kept on firing at the Aquiialan until she
was out OF range, but it is not believed
that any serious damage was inflicted upon
her
When some distance of Store, the Aqui-
daban met her coisort, the Rrpuh!ica, and
both vessels steamed in southelly direc-
ton. 1t is reported ashore that the two
rebel warshipS have gone in search of the
Nictheroy and that the latter is not very
far Off
1t is understood that an American War
ship and one or more foreign vessels are to
follow the AQuidaban and Republica in OF
der to witness the engagement between
these vessels and the dynamite cruiser.
According to one story, the Nictheroy is
bound for Destelro, and according to ar
