Claimed by Death.

Died Friday evening, May 10th, of
heart failure, Flossie Bird, daughter of /.
b. Bird of Belheld, aged a little less than
thirteen years.
Once again has death come suddenly
and claimed the young and fair for his
own. Flossie Bird was born in Bel6eld'
June, 1883, but has resided most of her
life in Dickinson, and the past two years
has lived in this city with her aunt, Mrs.
F. p. Stone, and attended school. She
had been working hard in school and her
friends noticed that she was overweight
and complained of a pain in her ear
Tuesday but was not i'll in bed until
Friday, when spinal meningitis devel-
oped. The immediate cause of her
death, however, was heart failure.
Flossie was a very aimable, lovable
child and her death is a great grief to
friends, teachers and playmates as well
as to her immediate family. Services
were held at the Congregational church,
Rev. U. G. Rich officiating. Mrs. Wiley's
class, OF which Flossie was a member

Dickinson People Hustle.

T. H. Poole, private secretary to Gov
Fancher and an all-round good fellow,
was in the city on Monday to make ar
rangements for bringing the Capital City
band here tournament week,and on his
return home I've was interviewed by the
Daily Tribune as follows:
The citizens of Dickinson are making
elaborate preparations for entertaining
the visitors to the tiremen's tournament
and street fair to be held June II-l4, and.
nothing will be overlooked or spared TO
make it the largest and most successful
undertaking Of its kind ever held in the,
state, and the people are just that class
that will make everyone at home. Many
improvements are being made around.
the city, the streets are being graded and
put in the best possible condition and
the new tile walks that are being laid
will add much to the comfort and looks
OF the place. The hard work being done
by the committees in charge, including
our friend George Hughes as secretary,
is a guarantee of success. A good rain
appears to be needed to put the country
in the condition it should be to be in
keeping with the hustle of the city, and
the Capital City band expects to be there
in full force to help push a good thing
along.

Good for Jewell.

At the North Star Daily Press associa-
ton meeting held in Fargo on Tuesday
the matter of the Fargo Fire Festival
came up, and Mr.. Anheier spoke of the
various attractions and called upon
Editor NJ. H. Jewell of the Bismarck
Tribune to back him up in the statement
that they we're the best ever. Mr.Jewcll
said they we're, but called attention to
the fact that the Firemen's Tournament
would be held in Dickinson the week fol-
lowing the festival in Fargo and that it
would not be.a side show but a c%ontinu-
alton of the big one. He wanted it un-
derstood that Dickinson is on the map
and that it is next to the city of Fargo as
"the biggest little city on earth." He
wanted the press boys to remember
Dickinson when they write up the Fargo
Fire Festival.

Runaway Car.

jamestown Alert: Railway mail clerks
report a rather exciting incident Thurs
day night, May 9th. The wind blew a
terrible gale and at Kurtz,-a station on
the N. P. west of Mandan, a box car was
blown out from a sidetrack and started
east down the track.
At Curlew a section man could barely
distinguish the car as it dashed through
at the rate of about 60 miles an hour. At
Almont there is a curve and for some
distance the track runs north. The Car
car stopped but not until it had gone
some distance against a side wind.
The car passed through Curlew at o:3o
p. m. and the section boss succeeded in
notifying the through passenger trains
Nos. ! and 2 in time to prevent an acct
dent.
One of the trains was late or it would
have undoubtedly have run into the car

An ASSURANCE AND A WARNING.

No better assurance could be
given of the financial soundness
and substantial basis of our ma
tional prosperity than the tremen-
dous shrinkage of S6o8,388,4o7 in
the market value of forty-one of
the principal stocks handled in
Wall street from the high price of
Tuesday to the lowest figures of
Thursday.
The fact that in the frenzy OF
trading, with prices falling as
if the bottom had fallen out of
everything, with brokers calling
for increased margins and with
one of the most colossal corners
in the history of New York hoist
ing one stock to a dizzy eminence,
whence its fall threatened the en-
tire speculative world-the fact
that under the stress and strain of
such situation only one small
failure was announced on the New
York Stock Exchange bore the
strongest sort of testimony to the
solid wealth and credit of the
American people.
While the underpinnings were
being knocked from under the
paper fortunes built on margins of
thousands of spectators the sober,
industrious and contented millions
were pursuing their ordinary avo-
cations piling up their surplus
earnings in factory and workshop.
1t is no thanks to Wall street
that the storm of Thursday passed
without strewing the centers of
speculation in every section OF
the Union with the wreckage and
ruin of a national catastrophe. 1t
has been fostering the conditions
for such an inevitable disaster fol
the past six months. Ever since
last November the game of boost.
ing the market for industrial and
railway stocks far above their in.
vestment value has been played
with ever-increasing fervor and in
feverish contempt Of the certain
day of reckoning.
But the warning of the past
week to the man of small mean:
with anything depending on hin
is-Don't dabble in stocks and es
pecially don't buy stocks on mar
gin.
