The Electro: & Water company
makes a specia' offer, good from Jan.
Is to Feb Is to wire buildings for 81
per light. This is less than half the
actual cost To the company. The
fact that nearly every buildingin the
city that is wired for electric lighting
insures a patron for the company war
rants q special offer to do wiring at
almost a nominal sum. Owners OF
| residences should especially consider
this offer.
This season there is a large death
rate among children from Group and

be relied upon in grippe and all
throat and lung troubles OF adults.

News has been received in this city
that the home Of Mr.. and Mrs. B. F.
Case, of Fargo, was destroyed by fire
last Wednesday, night. The fire was
started by the explosion Of a coal
stove, and the building and contents
were a total loss. Mr.. Case carried
some insurance. Only two years
ago Mr. Cases residence was totally
destroyed by fire and he had built a
new home and was nicely settled
when it was again destroyed.
Moorhead owns it's own electric
light plant, but the plant is man
aged by E. commission, and 40 one
department Of the city pays another
department for street lighting. The
city has been using fifteen arc, lights
at $40 q month each, and at the last
meeting OF the council it was voted
to reduce the number Of street lights
to ten. It looks rather peculiar that
Moorhead, owning it's own plant,
can't afford over ten street lights.
The Northern Pacific has settled
the claim OF Miss Mary Wilson, the
girl injured last autumn by rock
thrown from q pushcar at the street
car crossing in Sank Rapids. The
car was struck by a locomotive, and
the rocks distributed about mis-.

one and was later taken to the hOspi'
tai for treatment. Her physician de.
clared her injuries were not OF q seri
GUS or permanent character and the
company settled by paying all hel
medical and hospital expenses
