After long period of Imprisonment,

ferocious wild beast than a human be-
ing, Geronimo, one of the most blood
thirsty Indians that ever figured in
the history Of this country, has gone
stark mad. He is prisoner mt Fort
Sill, Oklahoma. 1t cost the govern
ment million dollars and hundreds
of lives before he was safely behind
lock and key. Deprived of his liberty
as punishment for his crimes, he
could not stand the confinement. For
fourteen years he has been pri, oner
of war. the last ten at Fort Sill.
For almost half a century Geronimo
led a band of bloodthirsty Apaches on
the war path. He was ter ror to the
early Sc tiers in the southwest. At
the age of 16 years his people crowned
him a war chief because he success
fully led them in bloody fight. In
1882 he and Victoria, with 600 Apaches
were attacked by Mexican soldiers

Admiralty Weak on Geography.

Admiralty Weak on Geography.
During the Boer war of 1880 the ad-
miralty was hopelessly ignorant Of the
geography Of South Africa.
The admiral in charge Of the feet at
Cape Town received strict orders that
he was not on any account to lombard
the town of Potchefstroom. Now, as
Potchefstroom Is a good many hun
dred miles from the seacoAst and lies
on the MOOT river, which is barely 200
yards across and dry for three parts
of the year, this order was superfiu-
ous.
During the same period the fleet was
Mt Port Elizabeth, and the admiral
headed dispatches to the admiralty
from that seaport. By the next mail
he again sent dispatches, but happened
to head them Algoa bay.
The admiralty cabled out asking him
what business he had to change the
location Of the fleet without instruc-
lions, sublimely ignorant Of the fact
that Port Elizabeth and Algoa bay are
one and the same place.
BY the way, the names Algon bay
and Delagoa bay are derived from the
outward and homeward voyages Of the
old East Indiamen who, on their voy-
ages to Goa, In India, were wont to
call at Port Elizabeth IN the outward
voyage and at Lourenco Marques on
the homeward voyage. Hence the
names Algoa Ito Goa) and Delagoa
(from Goa).-Stray Stories.

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For a
great many years doctors pronounced it
a local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to
cur with local treatment, pronounced it
incurable. Science has proven catarrh
to be a constitutional disease, and there
fore requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F.. ]. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the
only constitutional cure on the market.
It, is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to a teaspoonful. 1t acts directly on
the blood and mucous surfaces Of the
system. They offer n hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Send for
circulars and testimonials.

Reduced Rates For Irvine.

North Dakota P%enitentiary, Bismarck,
N. d., July 7, l6oo.-At a meeting of the
board of trustees held today the follow
ing action was taken with reference to
the price of binding Irvine:
Whereas, since the time of fixing
prices of binding Irvine, manufactured in
the factory connected with the institu-
ton, and the adoption of rules and regu-
lations governing the sale Of same, viz:
at the April, 1900, meeting of this board,
the crop conditions have materially
changed throughout the state, which
makes it necessary in the judgment of
this board to make a reduction in the
prices of Irvine fixed as above referred to,
therefore be it resolved that the prices
of twine for this season from and after
this date be as follows, viz:
Pure sisal and standard in car lots
minimum 10000 lbs.) nine (o) cent per
pound, F. o. b., Bismarck, N. D.

REPUBLICAN
CONVENTION.
L. A. Simpson Chairman.
SLOPE COUNTIES BREAK THE VALLEY SLATE
Representative SpaIding Refuses to Leave
Winship to Secure q Reformation.
Ferdinand Leutz OF Hebron and r. J. Turner
of Gladstone on the Ticket.

The republican state conven-
ton at Grand Forks Wednesday
has been the chief topic of con-
versation all the week. The dele.
gatates from Stark and other coun-
ties began to gather Monday, and
Tuesday and Tuesday night states
were made and unmade with great
rapidity.
Editor Winship of the Grand
Forks Herald was candidate for
governor and seemed to have an
unbreakable combination to back
him.
1t was conceded from the first
that the Slope was anti-W inship.
Register McGillivray of Dickin-
son, Editor futile of Mardan, and
Col. Little of Bismarck were sell
ected to effect the best possible
combination for the Slope and
they neither ate or slept until the
Winship combine was broken.
Capt. Gregory and L. A. Simpson
were good outside seconds.
The valley of course does not
like the result and the papers
complain that Cass, Grand Forks,
Trail and Walsh counties are
wiped off the map-and why?
The James river and Slope coun-
ties agreed upon slate and stood
by their Notwithstanding
the jealousy of the Valley coun-
ties kept them from doing,
The Valley papers would make
it appear that the Slope was after
Rep. Spalding's scalp-which is
untrue. Spalding was invited and
even urged to come in and receive
a denomination but would not
desert Winship and SO was left
out. No other candidates had
been considered or even men,
toned until Spalding refused.
L. A. Simpson was made tenn
porary, and later, permanent chair
man. His voice was easily heard
in every part of the opera house,
