Sad Death,

One of the freight cabooses which
passed through the city Sunday, was
decked with Grape, in token of the death
of Charley Pomeroy, n of the popular
brakemen on the east end. He left
Fargo at $50 Thursday afternoon on
freight IS, with Conductor Bailey's crew.
just as the train reached the Jamestown
yards, it broke in two, and Pomeroy
was just in the act Of stepping from the
caboose to a gondola car, when the train
came together with q crash, throwing
him on the track between the cars. The
wheels ran over his body, killing him
instantly. Pomeroy lived with his
mother and five brothers and sisters,
whom he supported, and his death is ex-
ceptionally sad.

Schools Observe 1t.

A profitable observance of Arbor Day
was had by the public schools Friday.
III the morning about thirty of the boys
started out with teams, and brought
back a hundred young trees to be set
out in the grounds about the school.
The observance of Arbor Day has been
customary by the public schools, and as
a result, the grounds are beautified with
hundreds of healthy young trees. The
addition to the number yesterday was a
large one. In the afternoon, nearly all
OF the pupils were present, and each
room and class set out a tree of it's own.
A few more Arbor Days, and there will
be no handsomer grove in the state, than
that about the high school building.

Fleming Dead.

Chicago papers chronicle the death Of
Jonn Fleming, one Of the noted board of
trade operators of that city, who was for
a year or so a resident OF Bismarck, back
in the early 8O's. Fleming was in Bis
marck, shortly after he was forced to
flee from Chicago, on occount OF. what
was known as the 'Fund w" scheme,
which is described by the Chicago Inter
Ocean:
1.-THE latter scheme was, in brief, to mass
the funds of all customers and invest the
amount as a whole, dividing the profits
pro rata. They paid some dividends, three
or four, | believe, and that brought in
more customers. Whether they actually
invested any Of the funds IS doubtful.
Whenever a country customer made a re-
mjttance, in a short time they would send
back aportion OF it, stating that the invest
ment had been successful, which usually
