The Ruined California Grape Crop.

The Ruined California Grape Crop.
The partial loss Of the grape crop
this year, caused by the heavy rains,
is estimated to exceed 100000.
Farmers and vineyards all over the
northern part of the state have suf-
fered. While this is true, it is equally
a fact that lost and failing strength
may be restored by the persistent,
systematic use of the great national
tonic, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
which renews and tones the activity of
the stomach, liver and the bowels,
counteracts a tendency to rheumatism
and kidney complaint, and prevents
malarial disorders. After exhausting
diseases have run their course, recovery
is greatly accelerated by the use Of
the Bitters, which improves appetite
and imparts renewed vigor to the
debilitated physique.

The directors of the Chautauqua
association met in this city last week
and transacted a quantity Of routine
business.
Prof. George I1indley, of Indiana,
who had charge of the program last
year, has been re-engaged for the COM
ing assembly. Dr.. Hindley is a great
entertainer and either on or off the
platform is very popular with those
who attend the Chautauqua.
The musical features will probably
be arranged entirely by Prof. d. Carlos
McAllister, of Fargo. The directors
have made him a proposition which
will no doubt be accepted. Prof. Nc
Allister has had considerable exper-
fence in the direction of musical
events and a program prepared by
him will be sure to please.
Prof. Kline, the kaleidoscope man,
will be present from the beginning to
the close. lie has a large number of

The C]hautauqua will DO in session
twenty days-probably beginning
about the 1st Of July.
n slight change was made in regard
to family Season tickets, which will
hereafter admit parents and all chill
dren under age. Heretofore they were
only good for children under fifteen.
All unpaid contracts for lots will be
cancelled after March l, unless ar
rangements are made for an extern
sion of time. There are quite a num-
Der of these contracts outstanding and
it has become evident that the parties
holding them are either unwilling or
unable to pay. Many of the best lots
on the grounds are held in this man.
ner and the cancellation of the con-
tracts will enable the association to
place these lots again upon the market.

Great Northern Machine Shops and
Division Headquarters.
1t is believed that a concerted effort
on the part of the citizens of Devils
Lake will secure for this city the es-
~tablishment of important railroad i'm
~provements here. 1t is learned Oh
good authority that the railroad shops
at Barnesville, employing between POO
and 800 mechanics, will probably be
moved to a more convenient location
in the immediate future and
there is no reason why they
should not come to Devils
Lake. The Great Northern has sim
liar shops in st. Paul and at Great
Falls and a more central location is
desired for the shops than at Barnes
vile. Great Falls is 1919 miles from
St. Paul, and Devils Lake, situated ALI
from the latter city, is much better To-
Gated for the purposes of the road than
Barnesville.
The Importance of securing these
shops cannot be underestimate. Their
location here would also necessarily
NEAR that this city would be desig-
mated as division headquarters for pas
senger and freight trains. At the
present time there are probably one
hundred railroad employees who make
this city their home. If the shops
we're moved here and division head
quarters established the road would
have four or five hundred employees
here. The population of the city
would just about he doubled. There
would be Il demand for residence and
business property which would Ger
tainly increase present values.
The INTEROcEAN does not pretend to
say what steps arc necessary to secure
these shops, but it believes that every
business man and property owner in
the city will at once realize the de-
| STABILITY of doing all that is possible
to bring them here. 1t is n proper sub
ject for the business mems union to
take hold of, and this would seem to
be Il very favorable opportunity for the
matter to be agitated.

The Great Northern time card makes
it very convenient for people in this
section to ~patronize the Grand Forks
opera house, and quite a quantity of
good Devils Lake money has been
spent in that direction already this
winter. Leaving here at 4:1O in tho
afternoon, it is possible to return at
2::28 in the morning. The train arrives
in Grand Forks about 1880 and leaves
at 11:40, giving ample time for the
show. The management of the opera
house are making a mistake in not CIV
ing greater publicity to the attractions
which visit that city from time to time.

examples Of the different designs for the shield

thirteen stripes each, and they are not TO be
too severely blamed for putting the red ones
outside. One OF these has thirteen stars and
the other forty-fve. II stars are TO be used at
all each OF these numbers has meaning. But
or the three other shields, two have seven
stripes each and the other five. while two of
them have only three stars each. 1t is needless
to say that the only excuse for these numbers
OF stripes and stars is that the designer found it
inconvenient TO use more in the space that he
had. form OF the shield which is frequently
seen has double curve at the top. some what
like the one in the upper eft-hand corner Of
