R OF THE SEASON.
Beautiful Snow the Order of the Day,
and the First Of 1t on Hand.

The drouth has been broken at last,
but not by rain. The first taste Of win
ter was received Tuesday morning, when
daybreak found the earth mantled in
about six inches of snow, which is some
times enormously alluded to as "the
beautiful" Some time in the night the
fall Of feathery flakes began, and far
into the day it has continued, a steady
downward fall-the baptism of the slope
by winter.
The general appearance of the city is
much the same as it has been on similar
occasions in the past. and a number of
holes in the sidewalks have been COW
cred up. The price of fuel has begun
to advance slightly, in sympathy with
the season.
Alderman Robidou predicted Mon
day that there would be no snow until
November 10. He based this upon the
appearance of the moon, but it is prob
able the recent eclipse rendered lunar
indications unreliable.

SECOND
Applied for in the Supreme Court by
Attorney Camp in Braithwaite Case.

AS was briefly stated in Mondays
TRIBUNE, Attorney Camp Of jamestown,
attorney for the defendants in the suit
of VIM. Braithwaite VS.. Jordan, ct al,
has applied to the supreme court for a
second %rehearing of the case. The
argument for the %rehearing is a quite
exhaustive one, and it is asked upon
the question of Jurisdiction in admiralty.
The question as to the jurisdiction of
state courts in an admiralty suit was
the basis Of the first rehearing, and
upon the points of the decision of the
court, Mr.. Camp bases argument for
another rehearing.
This move adds still more to the notori-
ETY. Of the case, as the most holly contest
ed one which has ever arisen in the state.
Every decision in the matter seems to
find it just as far from final solution as
ever. lthas been in about every branch
of court in the country for decision of
some disputed question. The United
States. supreme court has had it, and it
has been in the state supreme court
four or five different times for argument
upon som n of the questions in
volved, and if the petition for a second
rehearing is granted, the same court
will have to grapple with it again, and
even then, it is likely to go to the
United States supreme court for final
adjudication.
Captain Braithwaite says he is train
ing his boy to fight it, after he gets too
old, and the prospect of it's fitting
about the courts for years yet is good.

According to the jamestown Alert the

the Missouri river, through Logan, Nc
Intosh and part of Emmons county is
now a blackened waste with only here
and there, at infrequent intervals, ranges
of small area which by ehrewd foresight
and considerable labor we're secured for
the coming winter. Prairie fires, aided
by the high winds which have prevailed,
have swept over this country, the pro-
perty losses have been considerable, in
large part of hay-some stock aud
some buildings-and the range swept
bare. AS this is principally a stock
country with only here and there an at
tempt at farming, the loss is considerable
and serious.
VIM. Dryer OF Napoleon, says that
many farmers and ranchmen lost all their
hay. Some had their supplies protected,
others not, but unless the frebreaks
were better than ordinary they we're of
little use. One farmer W. L. Belden,
determined to ave his range, placed
around it a firebreak 100 feet vice in the
n%arrowest place. His property CHANGED

and shrewdest ranchmen in Emmons

his stock from it, and surrounded it with

FOR WoMAN's
Mass Convention Called to Meet at
Grand Forks in November.

a state mass meeting has been called
by the National American Women Suf-
frage association to be held in Grand
Forks Thursday and Friday, November
IA and Is, for the purpose of organizing
North Dakota Womans Suffrage asso-
citation. In the call, which is promul-
gated by Susan B. Anthony and Rachel
Foster Avery. the following enthusiastic
summons is embodied. 1.-The question
Of woman's suffrage is aggressively be-
fore all the people of the great West.
Every year adds to it's prestige. The
glorous example of Wyoming, where
woman have voted upon every question
that men have for thirty years, has an
swered every objection of the opponent.
She has demonstrated that none of the
fancied ills that the theorists declared
must follow the acknowledgements of
woman have proved true in the actual
experiment. Wyoming is today an I'M
answerable argument for the advan-
tages of a government which knows no
sex. The progressive spirit of North
Dakota will not permit her to lag be-
hind her neighbors in this line of
march. The time to act is now.
We earnestly request all the friends OF
the cause to be present at this meeting
and to participate in it's deliberations
Entertainment for delegates will be pro.
vided in the hospitable homes of Grand
Forks. An interesting programme viii
be provided. Come one! Come all! Lei
this be an earnest and enthusiastic pro
test against existing conditions and be
come a fit prophecy of a new time com
ing when there shall be a better ant
truer cililization."

Former Bismarck Attorney Stands a
Chance Of Securing aJudgeship.
Judge A. J. Edgerton Of the United
States court in South Dakota, has been
seriously ill for some time, and mem
bers Of his family have expressed the
belief that it may be necessary for his
health to resign from the bench. This
has started speculation concerning his
successor, and John E. Garland of Sioux
Falls, who was formerly a resident of
Bismarck, is one of a number who are
suggested to succeed Edgerton should
he resign. OF all the candidates, it is
conceded that Mr.. Garland will have the
preference. He was United States pros
ecuting attorney for Dakota territory
during Cleveland's first term, is an able
attorney, and stands well in South Da-
kota. His Bismarck friends would be
pleased to learn of his preferment, should
a vacancy occur on the bench.

1 I City MUST PAY.
Cities Responsible for Injuries Arising
to Persons From Defective
Sidewalks.
Even When Loose Planks Are Dis
placed by Passage:of Bicycles
Over Them.
So the Supreme Court Holds in the
Case Of chacey VS.. City Of
Fargo.
City is Liable.

ELEEErE |
The supreme court Monday handed
down a decision which will be of especial
interest to cities which are somewhat
negligent of their sidewalks. It is in
the case Of Ruth J. Chacey vs.. the city
of Fargo. Mrs. Chacey secured a judg-
ment for $1,75O damages from the city
Of Fargo, for injuries sustained from a
defective sidewalk. She was walking
along the sidewalk, when overtaken by
a bicyclist, whose wheel threw out q
loose plank Immediately in front Of the
plaintiff, who stepped into. the hole
thus nade,and sustained severe injuries.
The city appealed from the verdict, on
the ground that the defective sidewalk
was not the proximate cause Of the in
jury. and on the further ground that a
bicycle is a vehicle, and that the city is
not bound to. make a walk for pedes-
TRANS SO safe that a vehicle will not
make it unsafe. The supreme court af-
firms the judgment of the lower court
and holds the city liable, in an opinion
written by Judge Corliss. The syllabus
Of the decision is as follows:
Plaintiff was injured by stepping into a
hole in the sidewalk made by the dis
placement of a loose plank which was
thrown out of its position by a passing
bicycle just as plaintiff was about to step
on it, so that she stepped into the hole in
stead. Held, that, the defendant being
under the circumstances liable for the de-
~fective condition OF the walk it was liable
for the damages sustained by the plaintiff
upon two principles:
First-That the loose plank was one OF
the proximate causes of tilelinjury;
Second-That when twofcauses combine
to produce an injury to a traveller upon a
public street or highway both of which are
in their nature proximate, the one being a
culpable defect. in the highway and the
other some occurrence for which neither
party is responsible the city is liable it the
injury would not have been sustained hui
for the defect for which the city is respnn
sible. a
When the defect is a loose plank in the
sidewalk it is competent to prove that the
sidewalk at that place had been in {
dilapidated condition for a long time AZ
bearing on the question whether the par
ticular defect which caused the injury hat
existed for a sufficient length of time Il
give the citv constructive notice thereof
and such evidence is sufficient for tina
purpose.
A married woman who has in fact in.
CURED liability for medical attendance
made necessary by an injury for which
another is liable may recover as part of he
damages a sum equal to the amount o
such liability the same as a femme sol,
although she has not paid for such medica
attendance at the time of trial

BEGINS.
The Work Of Appraising the Site Of
Old Fort Lincoln Has Begun.

= ~ III " Va &4FPA0 ASAA - =
Old Fort Lincoln Has Begun.
The work Of appraising the site of the
abandoned Fort Lincoln was begun Mon
day. Appraiser Merritt has appointed
Kemper Peabody, formerly state ex-
aminer, and. E. r Steinbruck of Mandan
as assistant appraisers. The work will
probably be completed inside of a
month, and a value placed upon the
land by the appraiser. This action will
then go to the department for approval,
and the land will probably be thrown
open for settlement under the homestead
act, upon the payment of the appraised
value by prospective settlers.
The land of the Fort Stevenson reser-
walton will probably not be appraised
at this time, as it is u~nsurveyed. There
are but four buildings on the land, ac-
cording to the records of the depart
ment, and these perhaps will be ap-
praised and sold.
The transfer of the Fort Buford reser-
walton to the interior department adds
100000 acres to the public domain, to be
opened for settlement. This land has
not been surveyed yet, and it, also, will
have to be surveyed and appraised, be-
fore settlement can be made Upon it.

The city council met in regular ses-
sion last night with Mayor Leslie pre-
and all aldermen present but

Several communications were received
from residents of the city, for the
correction of various wrongs. The first
one. was from Peter Wilcox, who COM
planned of the Fourth street sewer.
It discharged, he said, about the middle
of the edge Of the block on which he
lived, and the stencil was unbearable.
He asked that ,.the sewer be continued
such a distance as would overcome this
Objectionable feature. He also asked
that Fourth street be opened up as far
as Sweet street, in order that free access
might be had to all parts of the block in
which he lieved. The communication
was referred to the committee on streets,
grades and additions.
John A. Ross represented to the
council that he was the owner of a lot
on the west side of Second street, and
that the traffic of the alley back of it
as sadly obstructed by a hog pen which
had been erected by Daniel Sullivan.
He asked that the hog pen be removed,
and the chief of police was instructed
to see to the removal of the hog pen,
that the commerce of the alley be not
interfered with.
Alderman Grambs presented his res
ignation as a member of the committee
OF streets, grades and additions. Dur.
ing his incumbencyo of the Office, he said
a considerable amount Of street work
had been done, and he had been entirely
ignored as a member of the committee
He asked to be relieved from the embar.
rassment Of the position. The resigna.
ton was accepted, and the mayor will
appoint a successor at a later date.
Several reports of city officials were
received, including those of the clerl
and city justice, and referred to the
committee on ways and means. Tht
city treasurer also reported, in accord
ance with a motion passed by the coun
Gil at the time the liquid drink ordi
nance was passed that nine licenses hat

sons who have gone to the mines for
coal have been forced to wait over a day,
before their loads could be secured.
The applicants for coal have to wait atd
their turn, and there we're fifty teams at
the Anderson mine one day this week,
waiting to get loaded and off to market.
Considerable Of the coal which has
been hauled has been taken to the cap
itol, where ten or twelve tons q day are
being received. The haul is a pretty
long one-about twenty-five miles-and
those who deliver coal get $3.50 q ton
