with Auditor Johnson went up the
river a short distance where the fire
was making great Roadway. Editor
Taylor took a position about midway
between the Forbes and Johnson
parties and by hard fighting on all
sides the fire was soon under control.
A great deal of credit is due Mrs. E.
A. Lamb and her little daughters for
quick work in bringing water to the
men folks before the water wagons
could reach them. Landlord Tat
ley's daughter, Miss Mabel, and Miss
Mae Wallace rendered valuable assist
ance also. All of the Washburn little
boys worked hard and were at hand
to aid the men wherever necessary.
The fire is supposed to have originated
from the sparks of a camp fire and
would undoubtedly have done a great
deal of damage were it not for the
prompt work Of the townspeople.

NO HERE.

Grand Forks Herald: 1t has been
said that M swallOw does not make
a summer, neither will one year OF
poor crops bankrupt a state or bring
even serious results to any locality.
That present conditions have been un-
favorable for this years crop can not
be denied, yet the faith of the people
in the wealth producing qualities of
North Dakota soil is, and rightly
should remain mistaken. The fact
that the demand for farming lands
substantially ceased by the first of
June is no argument for a lack of con-
fidence on the part of farm buyers, for
the demand always ceases about the
same time each year, and does not
again appear in evidence nutil after
crops are harvested in the TALL, and it
is for this reason that land transfers
are generally less in July and August
than at any other season. To show
that the utmost confidence is main
tanned, in lands and land value, an ex-
animation of the records will show thai
during the past sixty days. there have
been filed for RECORD thirty-one trans
fers of farm lands aggregating $685.

transfers; during tue same time there

NORTHERN PACIFIC SURVEYOR is
MARKING OUT THE SITE FOR
THE NEW DEPOT.
Those who were inclined to doubt
the building Of the handsome new de-
pct of the Northern Pacific road this
year are being convinced by the begin
ming of work of laying out the grounds
ana marking out the site for the build
ing that the depot is to be finished be-
fore cold weather. Today the survey
ors are surveying the block on which
the depot will be erected and setting
the stakes to mark the foundation for
the building. The road will have a
forty foot basement under the build
ing, and bids for the WORK of excavat-
ing have been sent in by local con-
tractors. The depot will be $50 feet
in length, so that the site will be well
occupied. The parking will extend
where the present temporary depot
stands and on west back of the McKen-
zie block, which will be a great i'm
provement to the appearance Of that
place. A force of men will be at work
clearing the grounds and prepar-
ing them for the work of e%xcavating.

BIG BATTLE
Force of 10000 Allies Reported Heavily
Engaged with the Chinese
Near Tien Tsiu
Unofficial Report Says the Loss of the
Allies in Killed and Wounded
was 1900.

Washington, Aug. 1.-THE navy de-
partment has received the following:
"Chefoo-The British Fame reports
unoficially an engagement at Peitzang
Sunday morning at 3, lasting to 1880.
The allied loss in killed and wounded
was 1,2OO, chiefly Russians and Japan
csc, the Chinese retreating. Taussig."
Also the following: Chefoo-An
official report said to be reliable, says
about 10000 allies were heavily en-
gagged at Peitzing at Daylight. Remey."
The Fame" is a high speed torpedo
boat destroyer and doubtless being
used as a dispatch boat. Peitzing is
about nine miles north of Tien Tsin.
The Chinese have been heavily en-
trenched there on both sides of the
river. The Taussig dispatch indi-
Gates that Russians and Japanese were
in the van of the advance to Pekin.
The advance Of the allies began last
Friday and the first battle to be fought
lasted seven and a nalf hours, and re-
suited in a victory for the foreign
troops but at a cost Of 200 killed and
wounded out OF an army of 10000. If
the Chinese are goin gto contest every
inch of ground between Tien Tsin and
Pekin in this stubborn manner the al
lies will need q much larger army to
force a way through. A dispatch from
Iaussig disproves the
statement that the Russians are sulk-
ing at Tien Tsin. They and the Jap
anese suffered the most. Peat Sang is
the first station on the railway to Pc
kin. According to the best informa.
ton here the Chinese aggregated 2O,-
600. Recent news was to the effect
that this was the only Chinese army
near Tien Tsin and a short distance
out of Pekin. The opinion of mill
authorities here is the allies will
now pursue their way and press rapidly
after the r%etreating Chinese.

BEET SUGAR PLANTS.

The Cakes Republican says that cap
italists represented by Messrs. Crowell
II Spencer agree to put in a 100000
beet sugar plant there and they only
ask that the farmers make contracts
for 5000 acres of sugar beets. The
Republican says that the proposal was
favorably received by the people Of
Cakes. The hope is expressed that
the Milwaukee and Great Northern
will build into Cakes when the plant
is built, and make that town the Chi
cage of North Dakota.
In this connection with sugar beet
raising, c. B. Andrus of Cakes has a
letter from an uncle living in Michi-
gan, where the beet industry is in oper-
alton, and he writes. something as fol-
lows:
81 don't know how you boys are
fixed in North Dakota, nor what you
have got, but if you can sell out very
thing there come back here to Michi-
gan with a thousand dollars, buy a few
acres of land and raise sugar beets for
the factory here and you will never be
sorry for it. You will have to come
soon, or the land will all be too high
in price. as it is going up every day.

everything is considered; and the fact
that in spite of short crops, our own
people are investing money at the rate
of $4,000 per month in city real estate,
should go far in %disproving any calam-
ity assertions.
1t is not c%ontended that there is any
boom in real estate values; but it is
evident that there is a fair demand for
good property at reasonable prices,
and prospects are good for an increased
demand as the year grows older.

Mick O'Connor has a letter from DR..
Ballard at Cape Nome, written July
IA. He says: THE city of Nome was
a hot one at first. There was at least
one man killed every day and some
times two or three. The soldiers are
acting as police and keep things quiet
now. The place is like western towns
Of early days, every other building a
variety theatre and gambling saloon
combined. There is not much gold
being taken out at present because of
about three weeks late. l have been
all over the Nome district and have
seen some very rich claims, which
will be worked as soon as the rains
provide water enough. Some places
will provide as high as $ $1,000 a day to
the man.
Prices are great here. A chicken
dinner costs Sc. Steak, 50; coffee was
IT. cents a cup but now is %. Bread
is - cents a loaf, and so on. Pota-
toes sell by the pound, as high as >
gents. These prices will come down,
however, as the place is so near the
ocean that freight can easily be
handled. Laborers receive 81 and S1.!W
an hour. Teams were $40 an hour
but have fallen to $50.
There is every chance for a man to
make money here. The country is
practically unknown. No one knows
how rich the mountains back Of Nome
are and almost all the people believe
the gold came from them. New finds
are being made every day but a man
must hustle to get any property and
must get out into the country.

gamble of the worst kind. For in

other crowd of fellows came up on

wipe out the Christians and drive
out foreigners. A Mr.. Brooks Of
the Church of Euglapd mission, was
murdered by them only little west
of here. Our servants were all
frightened and were leaving US
Two thousand foreign drilled soldiers
were posted here for our protection
for several months. Things are
quieter now, but there are still 200
of them here and We are under in
structions not to travel without first
getting military guard. This
greatly hinders our work here, but
We are still able to preach to crowds
of the pilgrims in the open air. The
local people, though, are hard to ge:
at. They are afraid to come about
us. We have few callers and not
many attendants at our regular ser
vices outside of the ordinary mem
bers. All this has been very trying
upon Us and the condition CT our
work is depressing in a sense.
Everything looked 80 bright and
hopeful year ago and then came
this outbresd which so frightened
the people away from US. Our few
Christians have suffered no particu-
lar persecution and stand all right,
and there are some who still keep up
their interest, but the many are
