Jordan, who was for some years connected
with the Tribune, as editorial manager
under the dispensation of Gen. NettletOn.
He was prominent N newspaper work In
Minnesota in the early 'S0's, and was cred
tied with some very effective work for
Window in hisssenatorial contest in 1883.
He went to Fargo in 1884, and was for. a
long time negaged in newspaper work
there. He was 45 years old, and for some
years had been N i'll health.
very aged game was worked on Peter
johnson, who arrived N Minneapolis,
from Duluth, Tuesday morning. At the
union passenger station he was accosted
by two men, who with pitiful tale about
having some baggage in store, sick FAM
lilies, and, strange to say, a check on the
Washington bank for $780, They wanted
to raise some money on the check, and
finally worked on Petes feeling until he
was constrained to advance $21. OF
course the check was worthless, and the
men have not returned to claim it.. .t

thing Is not In shape yet, the rooms are
particularly Inviting and when. the pic

furniture arranged, it is believed that
they will go ahead Of anything ofs the kind
