An individual with a mania fol
waylaying people with clob has late
ly stationed himself on Beecburst ave-
nue. near the site OF the old Mechaui-
cal Hall. He has assau.te several peo-
pie ADD one OF Them received serious
injuries from his weapon which Is a
club.
Others lave been assaulted but they
have escaped with slight injuries.
The Scene OF these assaults is q dcso-
late place aud there are no houses
near, it being on state property about
midway betweeo tie houses on either
side OF the campus.
Young Victor Is the oue who was
hurt The worst In the assault. He
had bis IN broken. He knew poth-
ing OF the blow until the fellow struck
at his head with club. Victor thre W
his arm up TO protect his head and
the arm was broken by the blow.
Still more recently George Wioger
and Rightmire son OF A. Rightmire
were assaulted at different times
They were coming up the avenue rath-

same place a fellow made pass at
them but did them no serious injury.
Nothing was said by bin as to his
object and he made no effort 10 hold

MAIN COMPLETED.
Another Feed Pipe from tbe gas field
to Town is now Ia Commission.

The new gas main from the field to
town has been completed. 1t is now
bringing in gas to the consumer. The
gas was turned into it on Wednesday
night about midnight. Since that
time there has been plenty OF gas 10
town The scarcity was due to the
fact that the old mains were not
large enough to bring 1t to town as
fast as 1t was needed.
Several wells are being drilled and
one OF them is near the sand The
production is all right and with the
new main laid there need lie no fear
ofany further this winter. Ia some
parts of town the mains which have
been laid from the big pipes are too
small to carry gas enough and people
In those sections will not get what
they need until new mans shall
laid.

HORRIBLE CRIME.
Aged Man Foully Murdered
Near Warrington.

Tremendous Explosion Wrecks His
Home as He Sleeps and Kills Him Ii.
stantly Thought to hare
Eeen at The Bottom OF the foul
Crime.
Robert p. Floyd was instantly killed
and his wife was fatally Injured on
Wednesday night near Huntington by
an explosion under their home. There
is no clue to the criminals who caused
the explosion although heavy rewards
have been offered both by tie heirs oil
Mr.. Floyd and by the county.
Mr.. Floyd was 10 years of age. He
was formerly owner OF the Floyd House
at Warrington but had retired from
business recently and was living ia
the country near Warrington.
Before midnight an explosion oc-
CURED which wrecked his home and
killed hiaI His wife who was sleep
ing with him narrowly escaped death
and the hired girl was also injured to
some extent.
Evidence presented to the coroners
jury showed that the explosion had
been caused by nitro-glycerine which
had been placed directly uuder the
room occupied by Mr.. and Mrs. Floyd.
The criminal had crawled for thirty
feet under the house to place the
charge in the proper position to carry
out his plan.
Nothing about the house indicated
robbery although there was large
sum Of money in The house.
1t is thought that the motive fer
the crime was revenge although it is
not known that ne had an enemy who
would stoop to such base act.
II is believed that the murderer
knew all about the house and its 10.
terror arrangements as he placed the
explosive Just where it would explode
under the bed of his sleening victim.
Large rewards have been offered by
the county and by the heirs of the
dead man. Sheriff Jollitfe Of Marion
county has been on the scene constant
ly but he has discovered no evidence
which will aid 10 running the murder
or to earth.

Brain Food Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad has
been branded by the most competent
authorities. They have dispelled the
silly notion that one kind of food is
needed for brain, another for muscles,
and still another for bones. A correct
diet will not only nourish particular
part OF the body, but it will sustain
every other part. Yet, however good
your food may be, its nutriment is de-
stroyed by Indigestion or dyspepsia.
You must prepare for their appearance
or prevent their coming by taking
regular doses of Green's August Flow
er, the favorite medicine of the
healthy millions. A lew doses aids
digestion, stimulates the liver to
healthy action, purifies the blood, and
makes you feel buoyant and vigorous.

FAMINE OF

FAMINE OF RESIDENCES.
Bismarck has a house famine. There
is not a vacant house in the city that
it at all desirable as a place of abode
and real estate agents report that every
Gay they have many inquiries for resi-
dences. Rents are going up, and the
demand for houses promises to be-
come greater through the summer.
Many new families have taken up resi-
dence in the city in the past few years,
and a number of small, comfortable
cottages could be rented without diff
ficulty if they were to be obtained.
