STONE MAN A FAKE.
MouIds I'm Which 1T Was Cast Dis
covered at Argyle.


Special to the Globe.
CROOKSTON, Mimi, July 31.-The petrifed
man which has interested people of this city
Fargo, Grand Forks and Winnipeg so much
OF late, proves to be fake. Today Agent
Harris, of the Great Northern at Argyle, be-
came curious as to the contents Of a box
which has been in his freight house for sew
eral months without any address marks, and
opened it. It proved to contain the plaster
moulds in which the stone man was cast,
together with tools with which the work was
done. Argyle is the nearest station to the
farm of Mcpherson, the Mimic miller upon
which. the body was discovered. 1t is be-.
lieved that he had it manufactured at Moor
head, from which place it was originate
shipped and buried where found After it was
brought to Crookston and sold, Mcpherson
appeared and laid claim to It, The litigation
which has resulted has been a splendid ad-
yertisement and but for the discovery of
the moulds the exhibition would continue to
be what 1t has already been highly remuner-
atige. It Is at Brandon at present. The
LeCount brothers. Of Medicine Lake who
claimed the body as that Of their father. a
Canadian voyageur, gave up the effort to Sc
cure 1t after their failure In Winnipeg and
returned a week ago.

1t Is Attributed to Unsettled FL

EAU CLAIRE, Wis, July S1.-The re-

The Northwestern Lumber comnan-r
IS the only one to suspend operations.
They will, in a few days, close their
Porter's Mills, Stanley. and local plants.
The reason assigned is that the lumber
market is overstocked and that their
yards are full of lumber for which
they have no sale. Politicians claim
that the 'close down. is for the pur-

DEVASTATION AT MELLETTE.
Hail Storm Caused Destruction Over
Wide Area.

Wide Area.
MELLETTE, S. D., July S1.-The ter
rife storm of Wednesday night, which
swept over this region doing such great
damage, pounded out the finest crops
in the state over an area estimated at
twenty miles long and from one to five
miles wide. It gathered first in the
north, then gaining force and fury,
swept west. first striking Mansfield,
ten miles northwest of here. Then it
turned due south along the Chicago &
Northwestern railway. tearing up all
crops in it's pathway to a point cou-
it turned again and rushed due east,
devastating the great Hunter-Salzer
irrigated farm, thence on over Mellette
and still on east at least to the Jim
river, actually converting into a desert
waste thousands of acres on which that
morning stood the grandest crops Of
South Dakota
All the towns hit are windowless,
particularly Mellette. On the north and
west sides of every building scarcely
whole pane of glass remains The
water deluged the interior of all the
buildings as soon as the hail broke the
glass, and considerable damage to
store goods and household furniture
occurred. The Arlington hotel lost
about fifty window lights, the Tribune
and postoff1ce buildings were left with
out whole glass in the north end and
all over the city the same state of af-
fairs exists. Even the plank sidewalks
show plain and deep indentations thick
all over them where the hail struck.
Fully two inches of rain fell within
an hour
Estimates of damages cannot be ac-
curately learned. Neither Ashton, ten
miles SOUTH nor Warner, twelve miles
north, was damaged. The storm may
safely be regarded as one of the very
worst and most destructive storms of
Its class that ever touched this state.
