Crop Summary.

Bismarck, N. D. July 9-1he heay-
lest rains Of the season fell the past,
week, and coming just after the pre-
vious heavy ones Of June, have COM
pletely saturated the soil in all parts
LOT the state, and in portions of the
Red river valley, as well as scme other
scattered sections, have flooded the
low lands to such an extent that they
look like small lakes, and have dam
aged the crop considerably.
Wheat is still doing well, although
| the stalk is getting rank growth,
and is beginning to lodge in some
parts. The early sown wheat is most
~ headed out, but no reports as to the
size Of the heads have been received.
Flax still continues poor and has
further aeteriorated during the week,
the wet weather being very unfavor-
able for it. In some sections it is be-
| ing plowed under, and at the present
promises very poor crop.
Corn is about the poorest Of every-
| thing this season: it came up thin,
| and on account of continued rains and
cool weather has made but slow
growth, while the land has been SO
wet that it was impossible to get on
it to cultivate, with the result that it
is being overgrown by weeds.
Oats are only fair: rye and barley
good, as are fodder crops, as a rule,
while the bay crop promises an abun-
dant yield.
Some Slight damage has been done
by hail at widely separated places.
Grasshoppers continue numerous, but
have done but little damage.
Observation-Disclosures and
oats doing well; flax from no good to
extra fine; cut worms and hail have
destroyed considerable corn and flax:
corn small and sickly. Pingree-Low
places are flooded: some small flax is
beaten out Of sight and much is get

BARROWS TAKEN TO BISMARCK
Murderer of CarOlen Taken to Peni.
tentiary to Serve Life Sen
tenCe.

Sheriff BeaverStad of MinneWaukan
arrived on the Jamestown & Northern
train Monday evening, with BarroWS,
who was convicted last week OF the
murder of James Carolen near Oberon
in Benson county The sheriff took
no chances and had the prisoner SO
manacled that he could not escape.
Barrows did not seem to be affected
to any great extent. He has had a
hard time of it in the past few years
securing enough to eat, and the pros
pect of getting free board for the rest
of his life is not an unpleasant one.
Added to this is the fact that he is
greatly pleased that it was decided not
to inflict the death penalty. He is sus-
pected of having been connected with
two other murders.
His appearance is against him. His
dull eyes Shift restlessly. He is fairly
tall, but is bumped over. His hair is
quite gray. He looks and acts the
part OF a broken dOWn nODO. Ills
health has been poor and it is doubt
full if he lives a great length OF time
in the penitentiary.
Barrows was known to a number of
jamestown pleople, having lived here
in 1S9S-99, part of which time he was
a guest in the county Jail, being held
as witness. He has changed but
little since the fall of '9S, when he tes-
titled against Hentz, a brakeman, who
he alleged made threats against the
life of friend because of the theft OF
a jug Of whisky.
Barrows spent the night in the
county jail and the sheriff left fol
Bismarck with his man today.

the left shoulder Monday evening.
She used for the purpose 32 calibre
revolver. A physician was immedi
ately summoned. The wound was
found to be in her left shoulder above
the heart and although necessarily
painful is not likely to result seriously
Had it been few inches lower death
would have speedily followed. The
bullet lodged in the flesh back OF the
shoulder and was this afternoon re.
moved by physician. Mrs. Masters
is resting as comfortably as could be
expected and there is no doubt tina
she will recover unless unforeseen
Implications arise.
Mr.. Masters states that she had
not been feeling very well for the past
days. Sunday she was quite i'll and
also Monday. At about s O'Clock
Monday evening Mr.. Masters returned
from trip to the postoffice and sat
down at the table eat his supper. Fl {
conyersed with his wife for few
minutes and then he understood he1
to say that she was going to lie down
for a while: She went into the bed
room and returned shortly saying she
wanted to say goodbye. She kissed
her husband who was at loss to un-
derstand why she should say goodbye.
Then she pointed the revolver, which
she had been holding by her side. at
her shoulder and fired. AS she fell
she threw the revolver across the
room.
MIR. Masters picked her UP in his
arms and carried her to the bedroom.
In doing so his clothing was covered
with blood which flowed freely from
the wound.
His wife seemed to be somewhat
dazed and asked him what had hap
pened-if she had shot herself or had
someone else done it.
Today she was very sorry that the
affair had happened and cannot under
stand why she did it. She was able to
eat slice Of toast and drink cup OF
coffee.
1t is believed that she was temper.
arily insane when she committed the
act. She had suffered great deal Of
pain during the two days previous
and it probably affected her mind sc
that the revolver suggested speedy
relief.

same right to exist as two banks, two
furniture stores or any other two COM
peting enterprises When the matter
was simmered down all the company
asked was the use of the streets and
in return the city received a great
deal of benefit. The company pro-
posed to do more than most plants.
John Masters of the new company
said the company proposed doug more
than any company in North Dakota
or in the United States. A party OF
citizens were in the new company and
proposed to furnish light cheaper
than the old company owned by a
Milwaukee corporation. The new
plant could furnish electricity 30 per
cheaper than the-Uld.
Geo. Lutz admitted that he had
opposed the Hughes ordinance be-
cause there had been no safeguards
for the city in it. There was nothing
said about maximum rates.
Mr.. Trimble believed that that the
council had no more right to ask
whether there was room for two new
companies here than the secretary of
state would have when second bank
was about to be started in a town and
the incorporators made application to
him.
Alderman Canham cOntradicted
statements of John Masters regarding
Milwaukee men owning the plant.
Mr.. Canham said he owned the plant
had bought the same under contract
and expected to pay for it.
Mr.. Masters here sprung new one
by asking why anyone furnishing light
and water to the city under contract
should be allowed to sit in the board
of aldermen. 1t was contrary to law.
Mr.. Masters alleged, and he proposed
to make it his business to see that Mr..
Canham either resigned quietly or
was required to do so by due process
of law.
