DISCHARGED.

The case of Chas. Nelson against
Jos. Kintop, which was to have been
tried before Judge Sheldon at two
o'clock Thursday afternoon, did not
reach the justice until about four
o'clock. Nelson charged Kintop with
assault. The cause of the trouble
was spoken of a couple OF days ago.
When the case came up for trial
Nelson only had his wife and young
son for witnesses, while Kintop had
six or eight people who swore that
he had not illtreated the plaintiff in
the case. Blanchard represented
Kintop and Lyon represented Nelson.
The attorneys did not argue the case.
The evidence was directly contra
dictory, one side sweating there was
an assault, and the other side giving
equally positive testimony that there
was none. Sheldon discharged
kintOD.

The evening program OF the State
Fair will be Of very great interest to
every body in Minnesota from the
fact that members from the gallant
Thirteenth will take part in Porter's
brilliant spectacle Of the Burning OF
Nar;':i." which has bep: !:'o,'n""d
especially 1u.' 4:,c .ri'' and is the iIr,t
modern war spectacle presented to
the American public. The portion
of Manila that was burned will be
represented exactly as it was with
fruit stands, carts. street cars and
other real things in the foreground,
with soldiers of the Thirteenth about
their headquarters and the bay in
front of the city floating Dewey's
victorious fleet. All these things
will appear as real and actual as
will the fighting through the streets,
the blowing up of buildings and the
killing and wounding OF soldiers in
the streets, the Red Cross servants
with the ambulances, the terrific
bombardment from the fleet, the
frightful havoc with the real battery
which comes up at full gallop,
wheels into line and goes into action.
The locker on cannot separate the
real from the..spectacular and is i'm
pressed with the reality of the entire
SCENE and action. The men, the
artillery, the guns, the firing, the
bombardment, the water, the street
cars, the horses, the fields torn by
shot and the air full Of bursting
bomb shells he knows are real. The
rest is scarcely less thrilling than it
would be if real. 1t will be a scene
worth visiting and one that will i'm
press a historical event OF vast i'm
port on the mind Of everyone, who
sees it,

BOTH GAVE BONDS.
James Herman an Math krauSe
Will Tell Their Troubles
to a Grand Jury.

1t happened. last fall. In the
eastern part of the city James
Herman and Math Krause live in the
immediate vicinity of each other.
They are not on the best OF terms as
is evidenced by the number OF times
they have had one another arrested.
Both were up in the justice court
most all day Thursday. Thetrouble
came about this way. Herman was
going home on horseback on the
evening of August 20, last year. just
as he was passing a stone pile near
krause's house q volley OF stones
was hurled at him. He Immediately
dismounted to Investigate the origin
of the missiles being hurled. Finding
some of Krause's boys behind the
stone pile he chased them into
Krause's house and kept them there
until the father of the boys arrived.
Krause told Herman that if he did
not leave his house at once he would
shoot him, at the same time display
ing q gun. Herman left and krause
fired q parting, salute. In a few
moments the party whose departure
was FASTENED returned with a
shooting iron and commenced
blazing away at Krause's house. A
number of the shots perforated the
screen door and denied the wood
work in the interior OF the house.
Krause even claims that some OF the
shot hit members of his family.
Neighbors who were attracted by
the noise interfered and separated
the two herders. They were both
brought before the justice court and
put under bonds to keep the peace
for q term OF six months. AS the six
months have passed by they are at
it again. They couldn't stand the
peaceable strain so have renewed the
quarrel.
Krause had Herman arrested and
brought to trial Thursday. He was
represented by Lyon & Trettel, and
Herman secured the services OF At
torney Rhodes. They had warm
time at the trial Thursday which
Justice Sheldon brought to a close in
this manner: He bound Herman
over to the grand jury under 5000
bonds. He then told Herman that II
hs (Kernan) would lodge a COM
plant against Krause he would
make him put up similar bond to
appear at the fall term OF the dis
trict court. They will rest in this
manner until the grand jury listens
to their troubles in September.

Common sense tells woman that when

Common sense tells a woman that in

about disease unless that woman is a

The Minneapolis Lumber Mar.
k0t.

From the Minneapolis Lumberman.
Last week q new record was set by
the volume Of shipments from the
local market. Nearly fourteen mil
lion feet of lumber was shipped out
of the city, and that is nearly the ca
pacity of the saw mills of the city for
week. II every week showed like
record, the stocks of lumber in Min
neapolis yards at the end OF the sea-
son of active manufacture would be
little larger than at the beginning Of
the season, and the assortment
would be such that few orders for
ordinary yard trade could be filed.
AS it is the assortmentis none too
good. The shortage of long dimen-
sion is especially bad. Eighteen and
twenty foot stuff is not to be had in
sufficient quantities here nor in any
of the other markets Of the north.
Twentv-four foot timbers are hard
to get and timbers longer than that
In pine are practically out OF the
market. Holders OF long dimension
can get what they are willing to
ask for it.
1t is likely that there will be a fall
ing off in the number OF orders dur
ing this month. This will be partly
due to the high prices now asked and
partly to the fact that the re-
tailers will wait for the farmers to
get through harvesting before they
stock up for the fall trade. How
ever, the volume of shipments is like
ly to be reduced but little for every
wholesaler in the city has orders
ahead and some Of them would be
busy for month and upward if
they did not in that time receive
an other order.

About six O'Clock Friday evening
several feet Of the east end of the
Gravelville dam across Platte river
at that place went out. A hole had
been made through the dirt at this
end, presumably by rats, which al
lowed the water to flow through.
Before the gates Of the dam could be
opened several feet of dirt had been
washed away.
This interfered with traffic over
the bridge for a time, but men were
at once set to work and constructed
