NEW TRIAL FOR YOUNG.

Was Convicted of Setting Fire to the
Mill at Glendale.
The May term Of the district court is
now in session at Glendale. The first
case taken up was that of the state VS..
Harry Young. The jurylnen selected
are from the east end of the county,
non from the west end being accepted
owing to alleged prejudice. This is the
arson case that excited SO much in
terest in this part of the state two
years ago. In August, 1898, an at
tempt was made to burn the new flour
mill at this place. The fire originated
in the basement and was extinguished
after a hard fight by the night watch
Iran. The fire was plainly of incen-
diary origin, as traces of gasoline We're
found and tracks were shown in the
soft cement and sand leading to and
from an open window in the basement,
where the incendiarian made ris es-
cape.
Suspicion rested at nee on Young,
who was seen going in the direction Of
the mill a short time before tie fire
was noticed. Warrants were at once
sworn out for Young end John Dyer.
The latter. it was. alleged. was the
prime mover. owing to the sharp COM
petition between this mill aud the
Kuhn mill. Of which Dyer is one of the
principal stockholders. Young had but
a short time before come from Mon
tana. was a "bro1lcho buster" as he
called himself. and was alleged to be
the tool of Dyer in making away with
the mill. Young was convicted and
sentenced to the %penitentiary for four
years. while Dyer pdoved an alibi and
his case was dismissed. Young las
already served two years Of his SEN
tence. The case was appealed to the
supreme court and n lew trial granted
by reason of an error in the judges
charge to the jury.

In replying with considerable asper-
ity to the invitation to be present at
the Chicago celebration Of the ami
versary of Dewey's victory at Manila.
Duke D'Arcos, the Spanish Minister,
was following the general lines Of dip
lomatic usage. At the time of Dewey's
arrival in this country, invitations to
his New York reception were sent to
all members Of the diplomatic corps In
Washington. After a little conference
they decided that it would be improper
that they, as representatives Of ma
tions friendly alike to Spain and the
United States, should manifest interest
in a victory of M nation over the
other. Some of the diplomatic repre-
sentatives, it is said. did not even re-
ply to the invitations.

beg you to leave Manila with your
family and come here to Ma)olos. but

Rear Admiral Hichborn, the chief con-
~structor Of the United States navy, re-
turns to California, the state from
which he was appointed in the navy
as an assistant naval constructor in
1869. In California he spent the early
days "of manhood and served as a
journeyman ,shipwright, master ship

of "reminiscences of the early time in

The %rproverbial foible of many per.
sons for. c%oncealing or misrepresenting
their ages is proved by the census to
be a reality. Careful scrutiny of the
returns Of population according to ages
in successive census years shows that
there is a widespread tendency among
boys and girls to report themselves
older than they really are, as If to
anticipate manhood and womanhood.
Among those who are approaching
middle age;the tendency is in the oppo-
site direction, namely, to report them
selves younger than they are. Finally
in the case Of the very old, there is
an inclination to add to their years.
They seem to take pride in every year
they have lived since they could boast
that they were octogenarians. It is a
little strange that this weakness of
human nature should be SO widespread
and that both men and women should
be SO sensitive upon the subject Of
their ages, seeing that there is no
condition or circumstance of life for
which the individual is less responsible
than his age.

DAKUTANs ARE BUILDING.

Jamestown, Darlington, ana
Several New Towns Set the Pace.
Building operations are unusually
active throughout the James river val
ley. Farmers are building new resi-
dences and barns, and give evidence
Of great prosperity. The towns along
the jamestown l. Northern are enjoy
ing a healthy boom and many new bus
mess houses and residences L being
erected.
In jamestown q number of new brick
business houses will be erected and
more new residences have been built
and are being erected than has been
the case since the boom. days. The
same is true of many other towns. In
New Rockford a new schoolhouse and
a court house are among the more i'm
portant, buildings that have been com
pleted. A large number Of new build
ings are being erected in Darlington,
including a large fiat. BOWden, one
of the new towns on the Sykeston ex-
tension, has a number Of fine business
houses and residences where but a
year ago there was nothing but the
bare prairie. Fessenden, Harvey and
other Wells county towns report many
new improvements. At Minnewauken
a new court house, to cost $3O,OOO,' has
been contracted for.
On the James River and Cakes
branch of the Northern Pacific the
towns seem to be enjoying a healthy
growth and building is receivin ga
great deal of attention. All business
houses are occupied and numerous new
structures arc hpinp h1i1t tn Snnnlv the
demand. AT Dickey a lev bank build
ing is proposed and at La M0ure and
Edgeley contractors are said to be very
busy. Courtenay and Wimbledon, or
the 500, are also being rapidly built
up. A new flour mill and elevator
will be built in Courtenay and at VIM
bledon an elevator will be constructed.
From every point of view the indi-
cations are that the James river valley
will be the scene of more improve
ments this year than for many years,
and with a fair crop business will be
excellent. H.
