Bismarck weekly tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1884-1943, 1899-11-03

The situation in the South African
war is very clear. Interpreting and
putting together the press dispatches we
find that the Boer army, beaten and al
most cut to pieces by the British at
Glencoe, was driven back decisively
from that place, advancing and taking
the town, with the British wounded.
The British forces, after administering a
terrific defeat to the Beers and driving
them back into the hills, retreated with
mastery. strategy to L%adysmith, the
Boer army following with their artillery,
all of which was captured by the British
forces at Glencoe. At the present time,
General Joubert, discouraged and de-
feated, is confidently investing the town
and preparing to attack with a spirited
army, eager for the fray, demoralized by
their defeat at Glencoe. President
Kruger, discouraged and Inundated, is
at the front with the army, confident
and certain of victory, endeavoring to
whip the English army into accepting
his unconditional surrender. There may
be few unimportant details in the dis
patches we have overlooked, but the
above is in the main an accurate sum-
mary of the situation as it has been
presented.

The Burnt Greek Massacre.


Editor Joe Taylor of Washburn, the
frontier historian, has the following in
the Washburn Leader:
Those who have seen the neat pamph-
let describing the Washburn lands will
have noticed among the list of beautiful
.engravings that of Oscar Wards farm.
The picture show a deep coulee lined
with trees running up from the Oscar
Ward residence. It was in this coulee
on the fateful 10th day of August, 1853:
that a large camp of hostile Santees were
resting from pursuit by soldiers of Gen.
sSibley who had driven them from their
former home in western Minnesota after
the massacre of white settlers the year
previous. In sordid gloom the warriors
lay stretched in the shade of the trees
that lined the coulee curves then-trees
which we see in the picture. The Mis-
souri's waters laved the cut bank within
three hundred yards of where the Ward
house now stands, and out along a
.shute some Indian women were washing
and bathing, and perched out on a log
above a pile Of drift sat an old and de-
crepit Indian fishing and thinking. just
then the group sighted a large skif or
fiat boat gliding smoothly along near tho
bank above stream. In the boat were
seventeen miners, n woman and one
.child-all returning to their former
homes from the Montana gold fields. In
their belts and bored in the staunchions
of the boat was over 100000 in gold.
The Indian story is all we have to go on

PRAIRIE FIRE.
Fire Started Presumably by Hunters
Burns Over Hundreds of Acres
Near the City.

A prairie fire, started presumably by
hunters, burned over several hundred
acres southeast of the city Sunday
afternoon and only hard fighting by a
number of property holders saved hay
and other property from destruction.
The fire started nea the Yegen pasture
and burned rapidly the grass being dry
and there being a fair wind. A number
of the property in the vicinity
united to fight the flames, and succeed
ed in preventing any damage other than
the burning over of about 400 acres of
grazing land. The owners of land in the
vicinity give notice in another column of
their intention to prosecute trespassers
and hunters on their land hereafter.

the time the Shut matter occurred, Mr..
Booker sold his ranch cattle and put
$4,000 more in the bank at Chicago for
Shuts disposal. All these facts devel-
oping-went to show that MI. Booker
had larger financial interests at stake
than any n else and kept putting in
his fortune, to a v the bank and its
creditors-of which he was the largest.
With such a record to his credit, it does
not look possible that Mr.. Booker was
trying to do the bank. The facts are, he
tried with all his great fortune to save
the institution-but3 was unable to stem
the tide. Mr.. BOXERS friends are glad
of his v%indication and he goes back to
his home in Mexico with the best wishes
of all.

WORK OF BUILDING.
Progress of the Work of Build NO a
the Irvine Plant and Post.

The factory and engine room buildings
at the state penitentiary Irvine plant are
nearly completed. The building for the
boilers and engines is finished, and the
work of erecting the brick smoke stack
soon to begin. The stack will be about
eighty feet in height. The brick work
on the factory building is completed and
the building is receiving the finishing
touches. If the weather continues ia
vorable two other buildings will be COM
pleted at the Irvine plant this fall, an
office building and a warehouse for che
storage of fibre, before it is converted
into Irvine. 1t was first proposed to use
the old harness building for this pur-
pose this fall, but it is hoped, uder favor
able conditions to erect the new brick
warehouse. The office building will
have a face of the Dickinson pressed
brick and an order has already been sent
to the Dickinson kilns. The new build
ings make a handsome showing as they
stand, and the completion of all of them
will add materially to the air of business
about the %penitentiary grounds. The
plan of the buildings is substantial and
they are built to stay. The buildings are
faced with pressed brick from the peni-
Tertiary kilns, and there are trimmings
of white brick and stone that make a
handsome finish.
The two buildings at the military post
are also we'll along: The officers quarters
is finished nearly to the top of the second
story and the brick work would be COM
pleted in a few days on this building, if
the brick supply from the kilns had ar
rived. The barack building is completed
to the top of the first story, and a good
idea of the general plan of the building
can be obtained from the progress of the
work SO far. The pleasant weather Sun
day brought many sightseers to the site
of the fort, to look at the new buildings
and there vas a continual procession of
vehicles to the post during the afternoon,

A Sure Sipn of Group.

Hoarseness in a child that is subject
to Group is a sure indication of the ap.
proach of the disease. If Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy is given as soon as the
child becomes hoarse, or even after the
croupy cough has appeared, it will pre-
vent the attack. Many mothers who
have croupy children always keep this
remedy at hand and find that it saves
them much trouble and worry. 1t can
always be depended upon and is pleasant
to take. For sale by E. S. Beardsley.

Spaldinp's Views.

Congressman Spalding was inter
viewed at Grand Forks and the Herald
says: Concerning North Dakota mat
ters in congress Mr.. Spalding said that
there appeared to be nothing of very
great local Importance to be brought to
the attention of congress, although such
matters were liable to develop at any
time. He hoped to see an appropriation
made for a public building in Grand
Forks, among other things. He also be-
lieved that an effort would be made to
have the military forts at Pembina and
Buford ~re-occupied. Both of these have
been abandoned, but the buildings are
still there and could be prepared for
occupancy at comparatively slight ex-
pense. Among the arguments which he
had heard advanced in favor of re. open
ing the forts we're that M was close to
the boundary, and commanded a long
line across Minnesota and North Dako-
ia, and the other is on the Indian 'front.'
Ter, where it is very convenient to have
a small force kept continually. Also
that with a larger standing army there
would be a necessity for more recruiting
and that such small forts would be a
great convenience in both recruiting and
drilling new men.
There is a military reservation at Fort
Buford, however, much larger than is
needed for military purposes. and upon
this settlers have squatted. The dis
position Of this land presents a problem,
but Mr.. Spalding thinks that eventually
the land will be opened for public settle
ment, the settlers at the same time being
given an opportunity to perfect their
title to it should they. desire to do SO.

We pause to congratulate the Grand
Forks Plaindealer upon the cosmopoli-
tan nature of its correspondence and
special kilograms. In a recent issue the
Plaindealer had five special cablegrams
from different points in China, several
from South Africa and a few from other
parts of the world. The Chinese news
is an especial feature to which we would
call the attention of a critical public. We
see no reason why the Plaindealer should
not ultimately reach the high distinction
of wrapping up every laundry package
in the Red River valley.

Dewey and Otis Enemies, and Ameri-

BARCELONA, Jan. 28.-The Manila cor

covered that the relations between Gen.
Otis and Admiral Dewey are most
strained, owing to the profound rivalry
which exists between the land and sea
forces.
The administrative morality of the
Americans" says the correspondent, sis
below par. The gambling hells of Ma
Mia are taxed $1,000 each, and the police
are highwaymen, who make arbitrary
arrests and then demand from ten to
twenty dollars for the release of their
prisoners
The correspondent also claims that
the Americans have monopolized all the
trade, and swamped the market with
their products, rendering European
competition impossible. AS an instance
of this he alleges that California wines
are sold in Manila as genuine Bor-
deaux.
