Joseph Barnes of Statfordshirc, Eng,
has just arrived at and expects to make
his home in Grand Forks or it's near
vicinity. His arrival there may be of
considerable Importance to that city.
Mr.. Barnes has been Engaged in
England in the work of extracting
from refuse meat and the horns, bones,
hoofs etc, of dead horses and cattle,
various substances commercially ualu-
able. Among these are glue and va
rious forms of sizing, fertilizing matter
and soap. He is thoroughly familiar
with the various processes necessary
to convert into saleable commodies the
otfal of butcher shops and slaughter
houses and the bodies of animals
which have died from age or accident
and the disposition of which is prob
lem OF more or less magnitude in every
municipality.
Mr. Barnes proposes, if he receives
sufficient encouragement, to establish
fcrtlliZing plant near the city which
will convert into valuable material
large quantities of matter which arc
now worse than useless as they are Of
fensivc, and threaten the health of the
community. A plant of this kind
could be built and operated at COM

BOERS ARE At SYPFONTEIN
METHUEN AT MoDDER RIVER
The Bridge Has Been Swept Away.
Censor Is strict-Boers Are Making
Great Efforts to Recruit--Mostly
Young Men Under Age.

London, Dec. 4.-The meager dis
patch giving a list of the British casual
ties at Modder river and announcing the
bare fact that Lord Methuen is still there
awaiting achievements, is only supple
mented by brief special message from
Cape Town tonight stating that the Beers
destroyed the bridge over the Modder riv-
er before the battle, and are now concen-
trating at Spyfontein, where the final bat
tie before Kimberly is relieved is expected
to take place.
The censor has apparently stopped all
press messages from the front relating to
the battle, which is not regarded as a
favorable indication. As to the material re-
suits of General Methuen's victories it is
not clear whether General Methuens
force actually crossed the Modder river
or is still awaiting the rebuilding of the
bridge before the artillery and cavalry
can cross.
In any case the railroad must be car
ried over the bridge before the indispen-
sable big naval guns can pass, because
Lord Methuen's last message showed that
they were worked on trucks along the
railroad. 1t is significant fact that Lord
! Methuen's cable makes no mention of the
Boer loss, which therefore is assumed to
be small.
"A dispatch from Cape Town this even.
ing says Lord Methuen's advance un-
doubtedly is beginning to affect the Boer
strategy and probably explains the with.
drawal from MOOT river.
The continued presence of commands
in Cape Colony tends to confirm the opin
ion that the Beers are making desperate
efforts to recruit their forces in the Dutch
districts.
While it is impossible to obtain exac,
statistics, it is absolutely certain that the
disaffected Dutch have Joined the Boeri
in great numbers which are still increas
ing Most of the recruits are under-agt
men, General Buffers message clearly in
dicating the punishment for disloyalty
having deferred the actual holders Of
farms from joining the Beers through
fear of confscation of their property
There are now clear proofs that the 10y
atty of the border Dutch is unable tc
withstand the proximity Of Boer comman
dos. The rest of the colony is apparently
quiet, but there is a strong undercurrent
of sympathy for the Beers. The outlook
regarding Cape Colony, however, may be
regarded as hopeful.
