reached before S~widensky's fate is de-.
cided. It is said the verdict in the case
was somewhat of a surprise to some of
the Fargoites-who we're wagering on an
acquittal or disagreement.
Frank Donnelly has returned from
Emmons county, accompanied by Mrs.
Donnelly, who improved sufficiently
from her rheumatic trouble to make the
trip. Mrs. Donnelly has been in EN-
mons county for four months, having
been taken with rheumatism upon her
first arrival there, and unable to be
moved from then to now. Her friends
in the city trust she may recover COM
pletely now that she is back at home.
Fargo Forum: Progress, a weekly
society paper in Minneapolis, has made
rapid strides toward success and is GER
tainly most entertaining. Mr.. Ralph
Wheelock, an old-time Dakotan, is con-
nected with Progress, and his many
friends in the editorial profession extend
congratulations to him and his charming
wife, whom he captured in Bismarck, in
territorialsd ays, whens up from Mitchell
to the capital, one winter.
A little son of Ed Morris had a nail
driven through his hand Monday in a
peculiar manner. A brother was driving
a nail, and to stop him the little fellow
in question placed his hand over it.
Down came the hammer on his hand,
and the nail was driven head first up
into the palm and clear through the
hand, the head of the nail coming out
through the back of the hand. It was a
painful injury, and the little fellow suf-
fered considerably. m
There is a suspicion that an attempt is
being, or has been made, to evade the
provisions of a certain liquid refresh
ments ordinance. Now it may be put

e%xchequer is benefited, Jordan will in
deed be a rocky road to travel for those
who persist in being blind to their own
interests and who refuse to make haste
in coming forward-so to spesk-as un-
der said ordinance provided and by q
patient, easy-going community tolerated
Secretary PheIan of the railroad COM
mission is calling attention to the law
with reference to licenses for public
warehouses passed at the last session of
the legislature and approved by the gov
ernor March 10, 1895. By the provisions
of this law a separate license must be
issued for every public grain warehouse

Local Knights Templar are preparing
for the Boston trip, and those who go
will leave about the goth of this month.
Railroad rates are way down, and, from
st. Paul to Boston and return fares
range from $40 to $25. by half a dozen
different routes. This is low enough to
afford everyone who wishes to go a trip
which shall be not too expensive, and
doubtless a number of the local knights
will take advantage of the opportunity.
There will also be quite a delegation
from Fargo and other towns in the state.
Some of the outside operations Of the
pen convicts have been suspended for
the past few days, while the search for
the missing convicts, Watkins and
Smith, has been in progress. Guards
have been busy searching along the
