ANOTHER HIGH TIDE YESTERDAY


The rough weather continued along
the coast and in the harbor yesterday, the
seas being even higher and the tides COM
ing in with even more force than on
Thursday. In the morning the steamer
City Of Bangor, on her way from Ban
gor to Boston, arrived for harbor. She
transferred her passengers to the steam
err Forest Queen and they came ashore
and proceeded by rail to their destina'
lions The steamer Merryconeag still re-
manned tied up at her dock at Portland
pier.
Capt. Mckay and Gus Campbell, two OF
Portland's polo players. spent part OF
the afternoon on Portland pier fishing.
They enjoyed very good luck and showed
themselves TO be as skilful with the rod
and line as with the roller skates.
AT noon the tids was one OF the high
est that has ever been known in this har-
Dor. On Commercial street many cellars
were flooded and Considerable damage
caused. Hardly a business HOUSE on the
street escaped this trouble. In the Bach
Bay the water washed clean over the
marginal way in many places and came
wen up to the flooring of Tukey's bridge.
At Vaughan's bridge the water covered
the planking for depth OF three inches
and the draw tender said that the tide
was the highest that he had ever known.

Misc Grace Stevens OF Madras, India, dc
Ifvered the address. She told OF the con-
dltions In India, particularly among the
women. Until the Women's Foreign
Missionary society began Its work In
Madras no attention had been paid to
the women. They were forced to wor-
ship their gods of mud and stone and
also their husband. They could neither
read nor write and the greatest accom-
plishment a woman could have according
to the native idea was dense ignorance.
| The women never used needle or saw
pair Of scissors.
They have been taught to read ana to
| write In the Tamil language and4though
they have suffered much in consequence
many of them have become Christians
Miss Stevens told of some OF her inter-
Iesting experiences In this land during her
stay there of 10 years and particularly
interesting was her story OF the CONVEX
sion OF Sooboonagam, the Indian woman,
who was present on the platform. Miss
Stevens speaks with a slightly foreign
accent. bat her dsltvery is excellent and
her auditors last night were much inter-
ested in her story.

President Hill to Re tire.

A Minneapolis dispatch says:
The rumored retirement of James
j. Hill from the presidency of the
Great Northern railway company,
appears to be verified by plans
now being made in the st. Paul
Offices. It is now understood that
Mr.. Hill will be succeeded by his
son, James N. Hill, as president,
and that MI. Hill will be known in
the future as chairman of the board
of directors. James N. Hill is now
general manager of the system.
He was recently elected president
of the Montana Central to succeed
James j. Hill, and this week he
also became president of the East

OF the Great Northern is able,
liberal and progressive, and to
their efforts is directly due the re-
markable success Of the railway.
Mr. r. I. Whitney. the general
passenger agent at ST. Paul, Mimi,
is one of the oldest and most ex-
perienced officials of the north
west. With a thorough and COM
plete knowledge Of the require
ments of that section and by con-

ultimate end of improvement, he
has long since attained the success
full object Of his efforts. Ably Sc
conded by Mr.. W. L. Agnew, chief
of the department Of publicity,
every effort is being made in the
direction Of improvement of the
vast territory covered by the Great
Northern, the success of which
will be directly reflected on the
road itself, to which all credit
should be given. Tourists and in
~vestors visiting the Red River
Valley should see to it that they
are ticketed over this we'll known
road, as by that means they will be
able to thoroughly inspectthe rich
est sections of this prosperous
valley.

The Situation.

Chicago Bonds and Mortgages:
The overwhelming defeat of
Organism at the last election is
being properly accepted and inter-
preted by financial and industrial
circles to mean increased activity
and the height of prosperity dur
ing the next four years. In the
verdict Of the American people as
rendered at the polls there was
found the amplest assurance not
only of a continuance Of the pres
ent prosperous conditions but of
the elimination from the situation
of one of the most dangerous fnan:-
cial heresies with which this or
any country has ever had to con-.
tend. Free silver, as far as the
United States is concerned, is dead
beyond every hope of resurrection.
So decisive was the declaration
of the voters in favor of sound
money and an honest government
that there is every reason to look
forward to at least four years more
of healthy and settled conditions
during which the nation can, and
doubtless will, makefurther gigan-
tic strides along its present course
of progress and advancement.
It is especiallyfortunate for the
thriving west and south hat their
business interests can continue
their wonderful progress without
the sudden and disastrous inter-
ruption which would neces sarily
have followed the election of
Bryan. Wonderful as sour progress
and development have been during
the past years, we believe them to
be but faint indications of what is
ahead of us in the immediate
future.
There can be no doubt that we
are entering or a period of wide
spread business expansion. Fin
ancial interests are agreed that the
next political campaign will not be
on lines affecting the business of
the country and the success of
either prominent party can be
realized without harm to COM

The End of the World in 1914,

A famous scientist predicts that
the world will come to an end in
1914, basing his calculations on
the revelations of the Bible. If
this is so, it is we'll for us to get
what pleasure we can out Of the
few years that remain for us to
live. One of the surest ways to
enjoy life is the possession of
good health and a well regulated
stomach. Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters will enable anyone to OBJ
tain this. It is the greatest medi-
cine fer the cure of ills that arise
from a bad stomach. It cures
dyspepsia, constipation fever and
ague, malaria, rheumatism and
insomnia. No other medicine
can show a record equal to Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, the
standard medicine of the Ameri-
can people for over fifty years.

All Right, Duke.

Zimmerman, an American heiress,

people to believe him when he says
Ethis is a love match and he further
states that he loves his wife. In

opposition to his veracity is so
small in this city that it doesn't

happiness. The news that the
duke said he loved his wife came
as a great shock to our people, be-
cause it was so out of harmony with

statement but thought the duke
was the biggest liar on earth. But

Thanksgiving Day, 1900, will have

Mrs. w. E. Grissom, Henry, Ellis Co.,

and have found it to be a most excellent

similar ills, it is unsurpassed" Corr

Catarrh is q systemic disease, durable
only by systemic treatment. A remedy
that cures catarrh must aim directly at
the depressed nerve centers. This ia
what eruna does. Peruna immediately
invigorates the n~erve-centers which
give vitality to the mucous membranes.
Then catarrh disappears. Then catarrh
is permanently cured.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE COUNTY AND
THE CITY OF DEVILS LAKE,
FRIDAY, NOV. %. 1900.
PUSH ALONG
MENTS.

The necessity for such city i'm
provements as we're suggested by
the Inter-O Ocean last week, as we'll
as others along the same line, must
be apparent to every intelligent
and progressive citizen Of Devils
Lake who takes an interest in the
place and wants it to develop at a
ratio that will correspond to its
opportunities.
AS the leading and most induen-
tial city in the Devils Lake land
district, the people Of this city
ought to set a pace in the march of
municipal improvement that will
attract attention. True, the i'm
provements suggested will cost
money, but it will all come back
again. Every dollar expended in
legitimate public improvement, in
identifying the city and render
ing it more attractive as a place of
residence, will bring rich returns.
Make Devils Lake whatitshould
be by erecting a new hotel, build
ing business blocks, extending the
sewage system to those public
buildings which need it, and the
rise in value Of property within
the city limits will compensate
many fold for the expenditures in
Cured. In fact there is no means
by which our citizens can enrich
themselves more rapidly than by
pushing along public and private
improvements.
Surrounded as Devils Lake is
by one of the best farming districts
of the whole northwest, it presents
arich field for individual and cor-
porate enterprise. Money prop
erly invested here cannot fail to
bring satisfactory returns. The
population Of the surrounding
country is rapidly increasing, and
if Devils Lake keeps pace with
this adjacent progress as it should,
it must soon become a large and
%hourishing city.
Capitalists everywhere are in
vited to come and look us over,
take measure of our prospects as
we'll as our needs, and then Judge
for themselves whether this is not
a good field for their exploitation.
