the fort at 3 O'clock Wednesday, afternoon.
The occupants were by no means confident
but they did the best they could. Water and
men were scarce and anxiety prevailed
among the women. Finally rain interfered
in their favor, and Little Grow failed to in
duce his men to make a charge at the critical
moment in the face of booming artillery. The
ing. relief also arriving at the fort the same
day under command of Col McPhail.
But the worst was yet to come. Saturday
morning clouds OF smoke could be noticed
rising from the farming community around
New Clm and it was quite evident to the
eager citizens that the Indians were ad-
vancing in full force. During the night
previous, about twenty men had started for
St: Peter and in the morning seventy more
left under command Of Lit. Huey. They met
another company under Capt. Cox, but the
Indians cut Off the return OF both. and only
a few managed to reach the besieged city.
AT noon man on the EEd'S house cried out
that the Indians were at hand. The build
ings outside Of the barricades with the ex-
ceptiOn of Weddendorf's brick house were all
burned either by the Indians Or by the de-
advantage. The fight on the part of those
within the barricades was courageous. They
had everything to fear, nothing to hope for.
Still they adhered to their duty to the last,
unflinching inspte of the odds against them
The women huddled together in the cellars
and in Erd's building they had a barrel Of
gun powder ready to ignite in case the In
dams should be victorious.
Such examples of resignation to an awful
fate few in the annals of recent history.
Only eight were killed in the battle, among
them being Capt. Dodd, who ventured to at
tack the Indians outside of the barricade,
and a Mr.. Castor, a baker, who wanted to

arrivals from St. Peter under command Of
Capt. Boardman. and confidence was then
rendered dou lly strong. Much credit has
been given to this company from St Peter, in
determining the first battle, but the credit
has been seldshl}y misplaced: To the brave
band from Nicollet, is due all the honor of
the first days fight and no one should en-
deayor to take it from them. They fought
the battle alone: and had they not won when
they did the arrival of the St. Peter company
would have awaited nothing. That they were
of great value later on there is no gainsay-
confined to the second battle alone and should
be bestowed only where they belong
Only two people were killed within the bar

being Miss Paule fourteen years. who out of
curiosity had ventured from the Erd resi-

that had been brought into town were cared

claiming that he was too careless with the
life OF men: Accordingly meeting was held
in WHICH Flandreau was selected as comman-
der, with Dodd as provost marshal and Buell.
as deputy. A regular military organization
was formed and martial law proclaimed:
People arrived during the day who in their
eagerness to fight Indians had forgotten their

to ride had walked at least thirty miles.

Confirms BOSky.

Prof. Bosky writes from Rhinelander
Wis. enclosing a clipping from the Min
neapolis Tribune substantiating his the.
DRY OF the creation as given in the fist
volume of his recent work of science.
The discovery of the bones of man who
is supposed to have lived before $4,000
years ago coming as it does at a time
when Mr.. Bosky advances his theory
gives him reason to feel that he is study
ing along the right lines. The clipping
is an elucidation of the follow1ng:
A party of scientists, four of them
known and recognized as authorities on
the subject of geology, made trip to
the Concannon farm near Lansing, Kan,
yesterday and proved to- their complete
satisfaction that the human bones found
there recently are the skeleton of man
who lived in the glacial period, or about
$4,000 years ago, and that this skeleton
is tho oldest ever found on the North
American continent. In other words, the
man whose bones were found IS supposed
to be one of the first human beings who
existed on this continent.

FLOM Hot TO Cold.

Dysentery is prevalent everywhere in
summer and is due to miasmatic poisons,
and begins abruptly with Inflammation of
the mucous lining of the large bowel. In
America the disease is common, but prop
erly treated does not result seriously as
in the tropics. Perry Davis Painkiller is
the best known remedy and the most eff
cacious in the treatment of dysetery.

The city council has a problem be-
fore them that will soon have to be solv-
ed and that is he expenditure of some
$500 for a new dynamo. The one that
furnishes the current for the inc andes
cent system is now loaded and with the
400 lights that will be used by the new
St. Mary's church and those to be used
by the other two new churches will
make it necessary to add more mechin-
cry to accommodate the public. The
present dynamo has only power for
about 600 lamps and that number is
used by the citizens. At the meeting
of last Wednesday night it was decided
to get estimates on machine of suitable
power and in due time the local plant
will be running an additional dynamo.
1t is the intention Of Mayor Glo'zbach
and his associates or the council to get
one that will be large enough for future
needs. With the boiler capacity and
the large engine now in nice running Or
der at the plant it will be model plant
when the third dynamo is installed there.

Reach Verdict.
VERDICT MEETS APPROVAL
Wonderful Change in Public Senti-
ment-Suspicion Points to Harry
Cornish as the Murderer-Hand-
writing Experts Discredited and
the Prosecution Dumbfounded.

New York, Nov. 11-Roland B. Mol
mex was set at liberty today after
spending nearly four years in prison
ana being once condemned to death
and twice placed on trial for his life
Tor the murder of Mrs. Katherine ].
Adams.
MollneuX gave no evidence of emo
ton when the words that established
his innocence were pronounced. His
aged father, General Molineux, was
deeply affected and could with diff
Guilty respond to the greetings of
friends, who pressed forward to offer
congratulations.
During the last day of the trial, in
which the defense had its INNING evi-
dence was introduced which not only
established an alibi for Molineux, but
the credibility of the states main
witness was impeached The proof
contained in the testimony of Mrs.
Anna Stephenson that MohneuX did
not mail the poison package on the
afternoon of December 23, 1898, was
reinforced by the testimony of Pro-
fessor Vulte of Columbia university
that MolineuX was in his company in
the upper part of the city all that
afternoon.
A wonderful change of sentiment
has taken place in New York since
MolineuX's first trial and conviction
Then he was believed to be guilty.
Now there are few who believe him
guilty, and suspicion strongly points
to Harry Cornish. Judge Black as
much as accused Cornish of the crime
in his speech to the jury, which was
a masterful summing up.
The handwriting experts, who cut
so important figure in the first
trial, were so discredited that their
evidence really amounted to nothing
1t was their evidence that convicted.

criminally assaulting the 14-year-old
daughter of James Van Hamm last

well known among the railroad men
here, and there is much feeling
against him.

last summer will have a second fun
eral now, if they wish to inter the
remains of Shaw with appropriate

disappeared last summer, his sup

CITY OF HELENA BANKRUPT.
According to the Decision of the Su-
preme Court

premS Couft.
Helena, Nov 10.-According to a
decision rendered by the supreme
court this morning, the city of Helena
is in state of voluntary bankruptcy
1t is the outcome of the celebrated
litigation between the city and wa
ter works company, and the decision
this morning scores a big point for
the company. The injunction applied
for was granite to the company, re-
versing the decision of Judge Glenn
ents, of the district court.
No city employe can be paid under
this order until the city has paid its
water rent due the company, which
amounts to about 100000 Judge
Clements decided that the city could
pay necessary expenses, but could
not incur additional debts. Now the
higher court holds that the amour
coming to the water company is due
and later debts cannot be legally
paid.
The water fight now promises to
become the leading feature in munici.
pal affairs, the company being deter
mined to force the question to an
issue.
