OF the several causes Of fear, that Of
thunder and lightning is said by Presi-
dent Stanley Hall to be the most com
mon, because of the supposed helpless
ness of humanity to avert or neutralize
q stroke of lightning. Yet this is not
always the case. During the civil war
Col Rutherford B. Hayes and a little
squad Of men were accommodating in
the mountains of West Virginia, when
a severe thunder storm broke over
them and they took shelter under a
clump Of trees. With single bolt,
five Of the men fell senseless and were
mourned by their companions as dead.
Col. Hayes detailed two men to each
OF the unconscious soldiers, and him
self demonstrated the methods used
in resuscitating the drowned. After
ten minutes Of Intellectual effort, the
soldiers declared it folly to try longer;
the men were dead. The colonel or
dered no relaxing of work In twenty
minutes two of the men showed signs
of life; in forty minutes two others,
and after an hour and half the breath
of the fifth came with faint f1utter,
and all were saved. Make a point Of
telling this experience President
Hayes used to say; 1T may save other
lives"

Is Alum Poisonous?

Alum is used by many bakers to
whiten their bread, enabling them to
use an inferior flour, and it is also en-
ployed as cheap substitute for cream
or tartar in the manufacture of baking
powder. It's use in bread and baking
powder is very detrimental to health,
producing dyspepsia and obstinate
constipation, and under certain condi-
lions of the human system results in
poisoning. What these conditions are
SO far as each individual is concerned
can only be surmised: some peculiar
1ty OF the system producing a morbid
changc in the secretions of the stom-
ach with which the alum combines
and forms an active poison; or, the Sc
cretlons may be healthy but in alb
normal proportions, and these lesser
or greater proportions in combination
with the alum constitute poison just
as Two parts of mercury and two parts
ch!rrlne form calomel, which is not
POISONOUS. while one part of mercury
ana Two parts Of chlorine yield q cor
rosive snblimatc. which IS a most dead
ly poison.

to have a standing army Of one hun
dred and fifty thousand men. That
would be Imperialism indeed. What

would be q misfortune to have that

upon US year by year. There is no ne

of the foreign systems which ignore

We can get up a larger army within a

and destructive than continual army
tax and an utterly useless display OF

EVICTING 4 WOMAN.

An Interesting Case Giving Fargo
People Something to Talk About
Fargo, y. D.-The petit jury for the
term assembled this forenoon. There
are several criminal matters that re-
suited from the last session OF the
grand jury that will come before the
court. Among these will be some in
dictmcnts on banking matters that may
cause more than ordinary interest. At
ter the petit jury cases are disposed Of
the grand jury will be summoned. and
there are a number of things to be
brought before that body.
Considerable local feeling is aroused
in Fargo circles just now over the at
tempt Of the First National Bank to
evict Mrs. DR.. Turner, one of the tom
ants Of the building. Mrs. Turner rent
ed the offices some time ago, and made
some improvements, with the under
standing that she should have the Of
fees as long as she wished. Recently
the bank served notice upon her that
they had rented the offices occupied by
her tr: DR.. Campbell, who mad dissolved
partnership with DR.. Wear. and
wanted to remain in the same bnild-
ing. The bank people Informed Mrs.
Turner that the Otticts ha:: been rented
to Campbell because he would make Il
tiva-ycar lease. She offered to do the
s,T'r thing, and when they demanded
"as's. sh offered them bonds and her
~: for the next five years, in cold.
i,iii casL down was offered Il ALSO
lr'ely necessary. To-day ;he bank
served the eviction papers. Mrs. Turn
er declares che will not go out. Mrs.
TI'.:cr is a graduate of the University
of Minnesota and one of the most sue
ce>>'al physicians in this city. The
b '::j'.lg in which the offices are locat-
a. IS Owned Ey the bank. One clause
in IL" rational banking law prohibits
ban;,s from owning buildings other
than She banking building for longer
term than five years. In this ease the
building is pr adjoining one. and some
of the Stockholders. who are Mrs. Turn
er's friends. may insist on the forfeit
ure Of the charter if the case is fought
bitterly.

commissioners at Paris are still dealing

the agreement was hastily drawn and
under great pressure. There is an
evident wish on thci- part to associate
Cuba and the Philippines in their final

application of the Spanish military
commissioners for an extension of the
time allowed for the evacuation Of
Cuba. This application Will be duly
