GOLD As
Discovered i'm the Kootenai


One year ago this spring there was
considerable excitement over the large
discoveries of silver in the Kootenai
mining district of British Columbia.
about 100 miles north OF the state of
Idaho: and the Great Northern. North
ern Pacific and Canadian Pacific rail-
roads carried great many people to
Ainsworth and other mining camps in
that district.
Quite number of Minneapolis and
st. Paul people invested in these mines,
which are all rich in silver and lead,
but the price of silver declined. and
many of the mines shut down because
their owners became discouraged at the
outlook. There was one company. how
ever, composed largely of Minneapolis
and ST. Paul people, who have kept
steadily at work in developing their
mines, and now they are being. rewarded
for their trouble by the discovery that
their mine contains not only silver and
lead, but also is rich in gold. This COM
pany is the Kootenai Mining and De-
velopment company. whose office is In
the Guaranty Loan building, Minneap
oils. The company now have tunnel
driven 1O2 feet and have struck a rich
gold quartz vein in the tunnel, besides
four distinct veins of the same ore which
has recently been discovered on another
of their claims.
The company are selling a small
amount of this stock for working
fund with which to carry on this de-
velopment work, and the stock promises
TO become very valuable within the next
few years.

A SMALLPOX SCARE.
it Started From Young Woman
in a Drug Store

There was well nigh panic in the
vicinity of the st. Louis drug store, at
the corner Of Washington aud Fifth
avenues south, last evening. A young
woman came into the drug store to pur-
chase some medicine. There were erup-
tons all over her face, and the drug
clerk who waited upon her felt con-
strained to ask her what the mat
ter was. Imagine his horror when the
girl informed him she thought she
had the smallpox. She stated that she
had been employed at the Glass block,
but of late had been stopping at Mid
way. and while there had been exposed
to the smallpox. She asked for ply
stefan. but there was none around. She
refused to give her name, and said that
it was nobody's business where she
lived.
Before anything could be done the
young woman left the store and boarded
an interurban car. There was great
excitement in the drug store for awhile.
Vaccine virus was gotten out. and every
person that was in the store at the time
the Young woman was there underwent
vaccination The druggist was also
vaccinated. The police were notified of
the incident, and later in the evening
DR.. Friedlander, who has an Office over
the drug store, was asked what he
knew of the matter, and he stated he
had not heard of it.

Minneapolis Lodge of Elks have always
been affairs of artistic merit and
novelty. The entertainment this year,
which occurs at the Lyceum thsater
Thursday afternoon. will be no excep-
ton to the rule. Indeed. it bids fair to
Outshine any of its predecessors. Be-
sides the skit. 1.-TWO Can Play at That
Came" which will be put OF specially
for the occasion by Miss I.enora Brad

Prof. A. F. Hasten, the Commercial
clubs athletic instructor. will give a
series of poses demonstrating athletic
development, la Sandow. There will
be one or two other features yet to be

unique feature will be a representa-
ton, genuine social session for which
the Elks are famous. 1t will come at
the close of the programme. The men,
bers of the lodge will be seated on the
stage. Frank j. Jungen will preside as
chairman. and will have power
to compel any one to do some

Then will follow the usual mock ar
raignments of culprits, the imposing of
ludicrous penalties, the stories, jokes,
funny fines, singing, dancing, etc.. that
go to make UP a social session. After a
half hour of the fun Weed Munro will
deliver the IL o'clock toast to the absent
brothers, a custom always observed at

the Elks in singing ''Auld Lang Syge."
The Elks will make parade from

ment, and the box reserved seat sale
opens at Dyer Bros. Monday morning.
Boxes and lodges can be obtained from

ROAST FROM GRAND JURY.
The COURT, JUDGES AND COUNTY
ATTORNEY INCL 0DED.
BECAUSE OF. *. KoRTGAARD.
The Bond is Too Small, and the
Sureties Anything but Gilt
Edged Why HASN'T kristian
Left the City? = Another Suit
Against the Bank President
The City's Funds Implicated.

When the grand jury concluded its
labors the foreman turned in a report
which to many seems novel. The Of
ficials of the court have the document
in safe keeping, but its contents are
known. Among other things, the jury
investigated the KOrtgaard case. and
| the report treats of how the president
of the State bank had appropriated TO
his own use $4,000 belonging to the
| depostors. He was charged with the
| theft of something like 100000. He is
| now at large On bond of $4,000, and
! to the grand jury, as well as many 9TH
erS, this seems Qneer. The county
! attorney comes in for mild roast for
| accepting Kortgaard's sureties, aud the
court is also arraigned for placing the
| bail at such small amount Just why
KoI tgaard does not leave town is not
apparent to the grand jury. A. j.
Blethen. Ii. o. Peterson. w. II. Lynn
and G. A. Sickle are his bondsmen in
the sum Of $4,000 each.
Judge Russell was seen, and he stated
he approved the bond because it was
approved by the county attorney. He
County Attorney Peterson, who o. KID
the bond, said that the men who are on
it as suretieS are weil-known citizens,
and they would not testify to owning a
certain amount unless they could show
they were worth that beyond all liabiii-
ties. KOrtgaard is charged with en-
bezzling 100000. His bond is $4,000
and he is still in Minneapolis.
Kortgaard and the State bank are
parties to another suit brought yester-
day by the holders of So, 900 worth of
stock in the defunct bank The suit
was brought ny the stockholders to
| escape the liability of their stock. When
it was purchased of Kortgaard, it is said
he made false representations concern
ing the condition of the bank. 1t is also
claimed that he failed to turn the above
| mentioned sum into the bank. Stock
| issued Ill fraudulent way or sold in
that manner is not valid. neither is it so
unless the money for 1t has actually
been turned into the bank. Yesterday
morning demurrer was argued before
Judge Hicks. 1t was oyerruled and the
| case Will be taken to the supreme court.
Inc complaint makes clear the charges
on which Korigaard has been indicted.
In July Z, 1892, the capital stock of the
| bank was increased from s75, 600 to $780,
| GOO. 1t is alleged this is the way the
president managed TO secure funds for
| himself. Aug. IA Kortgaard pretended
TO purchase 220 shares in the capital
STOCK issued. He was then treasurer of
the city. The shares were To coct S22,-
24O, and to pay for it he drew his checks
! against the city funds for $4,000 on the
| City bank, and for $4,000 on the First
National bank. He then gave his check to
the State bank for $4,000, but he had
no money in that bank, his account be-
! ing overdrawn. Tie State bank ac-
copied the checks, and when Attorney

Trials of an7Entertainer.
Some people give entertainments, not for
the purpose of inviting some people to them,
but so as to leave other people out in the
cold. This is not very commendable, but 1t
is an everyday fact and It can be remem-
bered that several years ago a number Of

Mrs. Sun thought Mrs. Noon had snubbed
her; had endeayored, in short to eclipse her
on a certain occasion; SO Mrs. Sun gave a

latter in the alleged snubbing were three
other high and mighty social lights, and

Thus 1t happened that a large number Of
people were given a great deal OF pleasure
in order that four ladies might get even
with one another.
Under any circumstances, however, 1t is
hard thing for woman to manage her
invitation list successfully, and to entertain
in such way that she will not oflend some
Of her acquaintances. She cannot invite
them all, and yet all of them expect to be
invited. She may find the safest plan Is to
give number of small parties and gradu-
ally get through her list in that way, or
she may not entertain at all out of sheer
despair. Even If she has a very large house
and invites everybody, she may forget some
body and offend in that way
novel way of avoiding all difficulty on
this head was successfully tried by Reuben
Davis, a noted politician, in Mississippi His
wife and daughters having determined to
give a reception, and being somewhat
troubled about their invitation list, Mr.
Davis took the matter in his own hands,
and, without saying anything on the sub
ject at home, quietly inserted in the county
paper brief notice to the effect that Mr.
and Mrs Davis would be at home on a GER
tain day at certain hour and would be
very glad to see their friends. Strange to
say, this comprehensive hospitality was not
abused, and his reception was great sue
