NORTH DAKOTA BOOMING
SEVERAL OF ITS CITIZENS ARE IN
ST. PAUL
Lively Scramble Among the Repub-
icans for All the Federal PIums
In Sight-Senator Hansbrough
and Congressman johnson at
LoRgerheads.

North Dakotans were especially in
evidence around the hotels yesterday.
For the most part those in town yes
terday were merchants, who had come
down to do their spring buying, with a.
politician sprinkled in here and there.
Thomas B. Edison, of Larimore, a
nephew of 1.-The Wizard" was at the
Merchants yesterday.
Mr.. Edison is one of the best known
bankers and successful farmers in the
Dakotas. Back in the early sos Mr.
Edison bought a large farm on the
head waters of the Turtle, and the
story goes that the first year he cut
$50 tons Of hay and sold it for $40
per ton in the stack.
Mr.. Edison said yesterday that he was
thinking of having a spur track laid
across his farm, and building an ele-
yator on the premises. OF late years
his operations have been confined to
wheat raising, but in the early years
of his residence in Dakota he raised
oats. One year he harvested 1902
bushels to the acre and sold the whole
crop for over forty cents per bushel
on the farm.
Mr.. Edison is ON his way to Wash
ington, D. c., where he will look up
the appointment of a receiver for the
First National bank Of Larimore
which closed its doors ten days ago.
Richard DAILY, of Devils Lake. was a
guest at the Merchants yesterday. Mr.
DAILY was the Republican nominee for
sheriff of Ramsey county last fall. He
is now in the grain business Previous
to his removal TO the city of Devils
Lake he was the owner of one of the
finest farms in the county
There is quite a scramble among the
Republican politicians of North Da-
kota for federal positions. The recent
appointment by President Mckinley OF
John Haggard as United States mar
shall has simmered the contest down
to the land Office places.
1t is generally understood among
North Dakota Republicans that Harry
Baird, of Devils Lake, is to be named
for the position as register of the land
office. Mr.. Baird has been in Mime
apolis for several days, and it is I'M
derstood that Senator Hansborougn
has practically decided upon Mr.. Baird
for the place.
Senator Roach being of the opposite
persuasion he will have no voice in the
selection of any of the federal posi-
tons. Congressman Johnson has dis
agreed in many instances with Senator
Hansborough on federal as well as
recommendations for consular appoin-
tees. A prominent North Dakota man
said yesterday that it was the gen.
eral understanding among politicians
Of the state that Senator Hansbor-
ough's recommendation would receive
favorable consideration at the hands
of the president whether Mr.. Johnson
Endorsed the appointment or not. The

COULDN'T SEE THE BULLET.
Matthew SOrger's Injured Limb Is
Placed Under the
X-RSyS.

An X-ray experiment was conducted
in the laboratory of Noyes Bros. & Cut
1er's wholesale drug house yesterday
afternoon. The patient was Matthew
Sorger, the boy living at 1109 Subur-
ban avenue, who was shot in the leg
by stray bullet, near the Fish Hatch
cry, Monday morning.
The experiment was conducted by
DR.. Haas, assisted by Frederick Helm,
the latter having charge of the drug
firms X-ray machine.
The bullet entered young Sorger's
left leg slightly to the inside and about
six inches above the ankle. Dr. Haas
was unable to locate the ball by means
Of a probe and decided to operate with
the X-ray.
The youth felt no uncomfortable SEN
sations and for half an hour DIR. Haas
examined the reflection from the fluori-
scopic screen for trace of the bullet
The bones Of the lads leg were plain
ly visible and the soft tissue appeared
perfectly transparent, but the bullet
could not be located. The course of
the wound was seen to be directly
downward, something unusual from a
ball received in the manner young
Sorger was shot.
The result of the experiment leads
DR.. Haas to believe that the bullet is
embedded in the bone of the leg o..
that it has lodged about the ankle The
swelling about the ankle prevented the
X-ray from revealing the interior for
nation clearly and, if the bullet is
lodged in any of the bones, it will be
necessary to take X-ray photographs
of the limb.
The photographs show more distinct
results than the image examined by
means of the fluoriscc pe.
DR.. Haas deems it unnecessary to
remove the ball from Sorgers leg, as

Capt. William p. Walsh, for several
years past the special secret service
agent of the United States treasury
department in this district, whose duty
1t was to keep an eye on all counterfeit
money circulated in the Northwest, has
been relieved from duty.
No successor to Capt. Walsh has
been appointed.
Instead, Secretary of the Treasury
Gage has abolished the Office in this
district.
That was the way in which the adj
ministration got rid of Capt. Walsh s
predecessor. The office was abolished.
and Mr.. Lawrence with it. Then 1t
was recreated by President Cleveland,
and Capt. Walsh appointed to fill it.
Capt. Walsh was close to President
Cleveland, who reposed great conf
dence in his ability and personal cour-
age.
During the presidents summer vaca-
lions spent at Gray Gables, Capt.
Walsh was his attendant or body
guard, so to speak. He kept a watch
on all visitors to Buzzard's bay, and
q sharp eye out for cTanks of the Gui-
teau stripe.
The office was abolished a few days
ago.
Capt. Walsh is reported to be In

INJURED BY A RUNAWAY.
Exciting Scene at Sixth and Mime
sOtn Streets Yesterday Afternoon.


A runaway horse, belonging to Peter Schol-
lert, a sign painter at 1855 St. Peter street,
created an exciting scene at Sixth and Min
nesota streets yesterday afternoon. The run
away collided with a carriage cortainging
Mrs. DR.. Brimhall, her mother and two
children and also ran down Mrs. Douglas

Mrs. Douglas was the only one who was
seriously injured. The runaway became IN
manageable at Fifth and Minnesota streets
and ran to Sixth street. Here the driver,
Theodore Kreemer, jumped from the wagon.
In turning the corner, the horse ran over
Mrs. Douglas, as she was crossing the street.
She was carried to Smith Farwell e. CO S
furniture store. She had a large confusion
on her forehead and complained of severe
pains in her left side. Later Mrs. Douglas
was removed to her home, in the central
patrol.
Her injuries are serious but are not con
sidered dangerous.
At Cedar street, the runaway ran into the
carriage driven by Mrs. BrimhalI striking
the vehicle, but not upsetting it. The SHAFT
of the wagon, however, struck Mrs. Bran
halls horse in the left shoulder and ran
through the animals body. penetrating in
front from the horses breast. The buggy
was somewhat damaged, but, beyond a severe
fright, the occupants were uninjured.
The collision detached the runaway from he
wagon, and the frightened horse continued lis
mad run west on Sixth street. DR.. B.imhalTs
horse was taken in charge by Veterinary
Surgeon White.

INTENSE SUFFERING
From Dyspepsia and Stomach Trouble.
INSTANTLY RELIEVED AND PERMA-
NENTLY CURED.
A NeW DISCOVERY, But Not Patent
Medicine.

DR.. Redwell relates an interesting ac-
count of what he considers a remarka-
BILE cure of acute stomach trouble and
chronic dyspepsia by the use Of the
new discovery, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets.
He says: The patient was a man who
had suffered to my knowledge for years
with dyspepsia. Everything he ate
seemed to sour and create acid and
gases in the stomach; he had pains like
rheumatism in the back, shoulder
blades and limbs. fullness and distress
after eating, poor appetite and loss Of
flesh; the heart became affected. cauS-
Ing palpitation and sleeplessness at
night.
/ gave him powerful nerve tOnics and
blood remedies, but to no purpose AS
an experiment l finally bought a fifty
cent package of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets at drug store and gave them
to him. Almost immediate relief was
given ard after he had used four boxes
he was to all appearances fully cured
There was no more acidity or sour
Watery risings, no bloating after meals,
the appetite was vigorous and he has
gained between 10 and II pounds In
weight of solid, healthy flesh.
Although Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
are advertised and sold in drug stores
yet l consider them a most valuable
addition to any physicians line Of rem
edies, as they are perfectly harmless
and can be given to children or inva-
lids or in any condition of the stomach
with perfect safety, being harmless and
containing nothing but vegetable and
fruit essences, pure pepsin and Golden
Seal.
Without any question they are the
safest, most effective cure for indiges-
ton, biliousness. constipation and all
arrangements of the stomach however
slight or severe.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold
by druggists everywhere at fifty cents
for full sized package

American Expressmen Have to Use
Rope to Catch a Hog.
An immense black hog created excitement
in the union depot train shed yesterday.
The animal, which was shipped in a car
over the Great Northern, was being trans
ferred to the st. Paul & Duluth train by
the American Express employees. A Stat gave
way, and Mr.. Porker burst through the
others, and was a free hog.
Off he started, with half a dozen Ameri-
can expressmen, headed by A. T. Roehl, af-
ter him. His tail and rear legs were caught
alternately, because, being an immense
speciment his Roadway was slow, but his mo-
mentum never decreased.
Mr.. Roehl finally succeeded in getting a
half Nelson on the beast, when the latter
turned and, showing two very ugly tusks,
was left master of the field.
Finally somebody suggested rope. With
this the animal was finally caught, and he
was half dragged, half lifted back into his
crate and shipped out CT the city.
