Resignation Sent In.

United States District Attorney Camp
has sent IN his resignation to Washing
ton to take effect April 1st, and although
the announcement may be surprise to
many, the step has long been contem-
plated.
Atty. Camp, seen today, states that the
duties of the office take him away from
the city So much as to break up his bust
ness here. He cannot attend to either
work satisfactorily, while trying to hold
both, without neglecting one and his
home practice he considers the most i'm
portaut. His commission would not
have expired until January. 1896, he hav-
ing been appointed in Oct, 1891, to sue
ceed John Selby, whose time would have
expired in March of this year.
The resignation of Mr.. Camp Will open
up lively contest for the office which it
is said will lie principally between At
torneys Hildreth and Miller Of Fargo.
Bangs of Grand Forks, and O'Brlen of
Devils Lake. ..,

Weather Forecast Charts.

For over month past Postmaster
Smith has received from the local fore.
cast official at Huron, South Dakota. de-
partment of agriculture weather maps
showing the local forecast for 36 hours
in advance. These he has had placed in
public place IN the postoffice for the
inspection Of the public and for their IN
formation.
The map covers the entire United
States with especial reference to the
northwest. Isobars, or heavy lines, pass
through points OF equal barometric
pressure, while isothermal lines, repre-
sented by series Of dots. show points of
equal temperature. Arrows on the map
show the direction of the WIND at the
points indicated. The condition of tt e
atmosphere, whether clear, partly cloudy,
cloudy, or whether there is preclpita
ton OF RAIN or snow, is shown by a sys-
tenn of small circles. Shaded areas in
pink show a change to warmer of 10 de-
grees or more within the past twenty four
hours, while shaded areas in blue show
change to colder of ten degrees or more.
Shaded areas IN black represent rain
fall OF one quarter Of an inch or more.
Postmaster Smith states that he ex-
poets shortly to receive frame for the
reception Of the charts, as they are re-
celyed and providing better means of
of the charts by the public.
At present they are suspended from the
wall almost out OF reach and where but

Richer by $4,000.

! Word has been received from the offi.
cias of the Peoples National bank of
Plttsbnrg, Pa. of which d. Mex. Lloyd,
is president. that they have remitted to
the receiver Of Lloyd's National bank the
amount due aud charged against this
banks account on the note of W. NJ.
Lloyd. The remittance amounts to
$4,000 less the discount OF $l1l67. It
will be remembered that D. Mex. Lloyd
was indicted by the grand jury and it
was charged against hun that by CORE
spondence between William NJ. Lloyd
and d. Mex. Lloyd a ticticious credit to
this bank was made on the books OF the
Pittsburg bank in the sum of $4,000.
10 80 back to the time OF the closing
Of the doors Of the bank it will be stated
that there was o credit OF this bank on
the books of the Peoples National bank
OF Plttsburg, OF which d. Nick. Lloyd is
a director, in the sum of $4,000. That
same day, the Pittsburg bank, learning
that this bank had suspended payment,
SouSOlAcA Lu0t CIcllU 6uu OOtlQoO t0lS
bank that they had done SO in pursuance
OF a letter on which the credit was
based. The signature of the letter
showed William M. Lloyd had prom
ised d. Nick. Lloyd, that it he should
secure that credit, this bank would not
draw against the other and that 1t should
remain in the bank where he got the
credit, but might be cancelled off at any
time. 10 secure this credit William NJ.
Lloyd put up his own note for $4,000,
which D. Nick. Lloyd was to negotiate
when he had secured the credit. The
Peoples National bank negotiated $4,000
and W. NJ. Lloyd was credited with S1O,-
coo. This bank never drew out any OF this
money and Wm. L. Lloyd's credit was
increased that much. His overdrafts
would thus have amounted to $4,000,
instead Of $25,OOO While the bank did
not get the credit, William NJ. Lloyd
did. and used it. The Peoples bank
cancelled the credit, said that th>y we're
not liable and refused to pay. D. Mex.
Lloyd was indicted on that entry. Itis
now easy to see that the indictment
brought him and the Peoples National
bank to realizing sense OF the situation
and compelled them to pay the amount.
This payment does not necessarily re-
lease d. Mckay Lloyd from the indlct-
nent against hun.

volved. When the "science" healer goes
into a sick room and Immediately
banishes medicines prescribed by pro-
fesslonal men skilled in physical healing,
the Herald thinks he does foolish, if not
criminal act, and the chances are more
than nine to one that bis patient will
die. 'Chrlstian science may have some
curative effect upon the mind and the
spiritual and immortal part of man, but
the corrupt body, laden with disease, and
afflicted with ailments of purely physi-
cal nature, requires something more than
faith or vivid imagination to restore it
to health.

noticed that the former was very nervous
and both exceedingly interested in each
other, Mr.. Harper explaining things in
bis simple and earnest way.
From these various peculiar move
ments and singular transactions it is
stated the result was as intimated above,
that the gold brick scheme, the exchange
OF what was possibly gold brick for the
spurious one, was worked upon the peo-
pie from jamestown. 1t is currently
reported IN st. Paul, at least, that such
is the case. 1t is supposed that Mr..
Holt believed in the stories OF old man
Harper and impaired his belief to Mrs.
Lloyd, interested her and Cashier LLOYD
in the case and that they in turn favored
the transaction for the sake OF some
great gain to he derived, but by which
some $4,000 disappeared from the cash
OF the L]oyds bank, and the note of O.
Fl. Holt left instead.
AS improbable as it might at first ap-
pear, the story Of how the Lloyds
depositors were fiiched out of $4,000 by
the old gold brick fake, as told in The
Alert last night, is confirmed by the
Capital. which says it has known the
facts long time. but promised a "dis-
Interested party" not to tell. The
Capital says the swindle occurred in 1892
instead OF 1891 This is not correct.
The deal occurred IN 1891, as stated IN
The Alert. In 1892 the Lloyds block
was built, and William Lloyd remained
IN jamestown during that summer. He
left for Europe, July 2nd, 1891.
The Capital further says. that
j. NJ. Lloyd let Mr.. Holt have the money
from the bank. The brick was tested
and declared to be genuine and during
the exchange of the money for the BRICK
a copper brick was substituted for the
other one. The confidence man got away
with the $4,000, and the bank got an.
other valuable security, upon which 1t
will realize, according to the Capital. 100
cents on the dollar

the Lowest Figures OF the Year
The Market Closed weak.
NEW YoRK Jan. 2.-The year opened with a
lower market Sugar, Louisville and Nashville,
New England, Missouri Pacific, New York Cen
trail and the grangers were particularly weak.
Sugar was pressed for sale and broke from 81 to
7616 and closed at 7s16. The stock was affected
by further reduction, in the price Of refined
and the decentralization In the market for raw
sugars. New England declined from 1915 to ~
the lowest figures In years. No new reasons
were assigned for the break. The receivers ex-
poet to issue statement shortly in view Of the
attacks made on the company by the English
press. New York Central sold down from 9s1S
to 96N regular, and from % to 95 seller 60. Mis-
souri, Pacins fell ia to 1894 and lacked support
The grangers were weakened by reports that
the forthcoming statements of the St. Paul and
Rock Island will show large losses as compared
with the previous year. st. Paul fell on Rock
Island ~. Burlington and Quincy ~ and North

or for the seconds. The proposed reorganiza-
ton scheme was favorably received. The report
that the Holland Trust company was to go out
of business had little effect, 1t has been well
known for eighteen months that the concern has
been struggling In vain against its old establish
ed competitors.
In the last hour Sugar was at its lowest price
| and Western Union, Union Pacific and Atchison
were also heavy. The market closed weak and
l feverish with net declines ranging from u in
l Lackawanns to ~ in Sugar.

It took me back to my youthful days

Der we'll the facts alluded to and tho
prominent families spoken of. One par
ticular circumstance respecting . FIRE In
Mr.. Huggin's erockery store has ever re-
manned freah In my mind. The facilities
for sxtinguishing fires in those days were
about equal to the primitive method Of
lighting the streets. Tho store took fire
one Saturday evening and the flames were
not out until next day ut church time.

was carried In buckets, which were filed

The reason why Alloock's Porous Plas-
ters are popular is that they may be relied
on to cure:
1. Lame back, sciatica, stiffness or twitch-
ing of the muscles.
2. Chest troubles, such as pleurisy, pneu
monia, consumption.
8. Indigestion, dyspepsis, biliousness,
kidney complaint.
The success, however, will depend upon
the genuineness of the plaster used. The
popularity of Allcock's Porous Plssters has
been 80 great that multitudes of limitations
have sprung up on every hand. The only
sure cure is to get the genuine Allcock'i
Porous Plasters.

The Nutritive Element in Ale
and Beer.

There is a nutritious element in
ale and beer, but it is smal1-there
is the Intoxicating effect, too. That
is a strong objection. Yet ale and
beer are used, and benefit health
at times. There is another liquid,
the active principle of malt, JOHANN
HoFF's MALT EXTRACT. One dozen
bottles Of it has the same nutritious
and tonic effect as large cask Of
ale or beer. That's an advantage.
Another-it has not the intoxicat-
ing effect of either. 1t helps digest
and assimilate food, creates appe-
tite, makes the weak strong and,
healthy.
Be sure to obtain the genuine.
