"a very strange accident happened

some prospectors named Bell, Prewitt
and Cole, had been injured by an ex.
plosion of powder or nitro.glycer1n,,
which was explained us follows: It
appears that they had placed some
sticks of giant powder in a hand NOR
tar some weeks ago. Wishing to test
the ore they had occasion to use the
mortar, and taking out the powder
they proceeded to break up the ore
in the mortar, when they were all
shocked by a d~eafening explosion
The mortar was blown to pieces and
the pestle struck Cole in the mouth
knocking out three teeth. To say
that they we're surprised is only put
ting it mildly. They all say that the
ore must be very rebellious, or that
the hot weather caused the nitro.
glycerine to exude in the mortar.
causing an explosion when the rock
was being crushed by tho pestle."

and one board of directors. rhe causes
of strife must be removed before the
common people can do anything for
themselves. Existing conditions and
the remedies must be understood before
there can be useful political action.

other. There are too many leaders, each

the gulf to Lake Itasca or the repub-
llcan party declaring in favor of the free
coinage of silver. If the Especial friends

reason has not departed, says he, they
should take the third term boomers to

advice. They need it. They are making
themselves the laughing stock of the

AS EAR east as Boston appears in print
a sensational article which was sent out
from Fargo the other day, relative to the
overplus of unemployed in the Gateway
City. The item states the presence of
1000 Migrants in the city-all armed to
the teeth-with weapons stolen from the
different hardware stores, which, accord
ing to the same article, are burglarized
regularly each night, to secure improved
firearms for the tramps. Tt is further
stated that a plot is on foot to hold up
the city, and that many of the residents
are greatly alarmed at the prospect
which appears to be little less than
civil war-according to the versatile
space writer. If Fargo is in any such
danger as the article would lead one to
believe, it might be we'll to throw up a
few Notifications, and rifle pits, and pre-
pare for the worst. If not, it should
hunt up the string writer aforesaid, and
pay him literally to refrain from further
correspondence Of such a discouraging
nature.
