silk Waists.

We don't wish to alarm the ladies in-
tentionally, but we would like to adj
wise them in a quiet, gentlemanly
manner to buy no Silk Waists, be they
high or low in price, before they first
look at our display. We do not deny
that there are some very fine and
pretty looking Silk Waists shown in
this city, but if the ladies will only
look at our own manufactured waists,
made in the best possible manner and
latest style, combined with designs OF
silk that's impossible to duplicate or
find anywhere else, they will thank
the hand that penned the words writ
ten here.
Let's say for edifcation sake, no
two waists made of the same color
unless pretty twins should so de-
mand,-there you'll find the essence
of our success in the unsimilarity OF
colors. Nature has taught us that
sameness in anything, particularly in
dress, is very undesirable, and that's
Just what we overcome. Prices range
from $1.9S to $500.

The Crop Bulletin.

The conditions during the past week
have, except in few localities, been
favorable for harvest, which now oc-
cupies the attention of farmers
throughout a greater portion of the
state, there being few sections where
wheat has ripened very slowly, owing
to cool weather and an excess of rain
Early sown grain has been about all
cut and considerable has been stacked.
AS general rule the yield Of early
wheat will be about up to a fair aver
age as to yield, but much of the grain
is of inferior quality, owing to the
past period of drought during the
growth Of the plant, and the hot sun
caused 1t to ripen previous to matur-
ity. Some few reports indicate the
quality as being very good. A few
fields of late sown wheat have not
yet ripened, and where cutting of
early wheat has been finished the time
is now occupied by fall blowing and
finishing up Of haymaking, which was
temporarily laid by. Threshing from
stack and shock is being done in a
few sections. Harvest of other grain
still in progress, and yield generally
reported as fair. Millet will be very
good crop this season. Corn is grow
ing well, and with an absence Of frost
the prospects point to a good yield
Light frost occurred on the nights of
the 18th and 10th, which caused slight
damage to vine sand garden truck, but
corn and potatoes were not injured
The yield and quality of potatoes
promises to be very good.

FATAL EARLY MORNING .FRE IN
MINNEAPOLIS.
Three Mem Are su6ocated While
Asleep and Their bodies Are
burned to . Crisp. but Nothing
Il known Of the Fatality, Until.
Several Hours Later, When Fire
men Stumble over the, Charred,
Remains. H.,

Minneapolis, Aug. 29.-Three men,
lost their lives early thlB morning in
one Of the tiercest and, NJ ost disastrous
fires that has occurred in the city
since the Mcdonald Bros. catastrophe.
Three, other persons were more or less
injured, three people norrowly escaped
and loss of about $11, 900 was sus-
tanned. The dead are: Henry Dulun,
foreman of Buffers blacksmith shOpf
Merriam Park; Gust Anderson, coal
shoveler, employed By the Great West
ern road; a. F. Anderson, coal shovel
er, employed by the Great Western
road. The injured. are: Chris Ander-
son, face burned and hair singed;
Charles Mattsol, hair singed and his
hands badly burned; Mrs. John Lun-
din, prostra+e !.
The fire broke out at about 2 o'clock,
and In an hours time the department
had it under control. 1t was. not
known that any one had been burned
to death until this morning at about
O'Clock, when fireman stumbled over
the remains of Henry Dulun. The
body was taken at once to a neighbor-
Ing house, but it was burned almost to
O crisp, and the flesh had begun to
drop Off. :.
The bodies of two other men, d. f.
Anderson and Gust Anderson, who
were in the same room with Dulun,
were found at neon. Gust Anderson
was 30 years old and a single man. E.
r. Anderson was 40 years old, and had
wife and several children in his ma
tive land. Dulun was 81 years old
and single.
The injured people received their
burns as they attempted to get out of
the burning building. but it is thought
that they are, not dangerous. Mrs.
Lundin was i'll at the time, and it. is
feared that the shock she received will
go hard with her, although her physi-
clan thinks that it will not prove fatal.
Mrs. Catherine Sterling, Miss Ella
Stevenson and Miss Helen Hendrick-
son were brought from the building by
the firenlen or ladders.
The fire is supposed to have started
on the third Hoe. of the Lundin block,
near the rooms, or possibly in them,
where the dead men slept. The fire
spread rapidly. and in few moments
the third floor fell in and later the
second floor. At the same time the
Berslin block was burning tiercely. 1t
was not long before the two buildings
We're almost total wreck.

Indian. Doing wen,

Fred Treon, United States Indian
agent at Grow Greek agency, reports
that many of the fields Of wheat OH the
reservation, belonging to Indians, are
yielding ashi gh as twenty bushels to
the acre, and that up to few days
ago he had purchased about 1000
bushels Of grain from them. He ex-
poets to purchase total of about 5000
bushels. Three threshing machines are
kept constantly busy threshing out the
grain for the Indians. Agent Treon is
also purchasing cattle from the In
dams for ration purposes, and stated
that the stock he is receiving is the
finest he has ever seen, some two
year-olds weighing as high as 1,3OO
pounds. The grass has been very fine
this season on the reservation, and
stock belonging to the Indians has
done remarkably well. The wheat pur-
chased from the Indians is taken to the
roller mill at Grow Creek agency and
ground into flour, which is then issued
to the Indians at Crow Creek and
Lower Brule agencies with other az
ticles turned over to them on the legu-
lar ration days. The government thus
substantially encourages the Indians
in farming and stock raising pursuits.
