O'Clock in the morning and following in
npid succession six explosions wrecked
a. many assay offices in Victor, Cripple
Greek and Gold Field The raiders did
not hesitate to jeopardsize hfe, as all but
one OF the buildings were occupied by
sleeping families Men, women and chill

shocks aud serious injuries inflicted. Tha

mated.
In this city the Davenport office was
wrecked by two explosions. involving
loss OF $500 Almost at the same time
the assay offices OF vanderwsiker, Nor.
gan and Williams were similarly de.
stroyed. The loss was approximately as
large as at Dayenport's. A miner WAS

ALL FOR YOUNG.
Representatives of Fifth JudiCia
District Endorse Geo. N. Young
for Speaker.
Outlook for the Election of Mr.. Young
Seems to be Very
Favorable.
Other Candidates Have not Developed
any Great Strength
Yet.

A caucus of the representatives 0
the Fifth judicial district was held in
the Gladstone hotel in jamestown Fri
day evening. Stutsman, LaMoure,
Griggs, Eddy, Foster, Wells and Bar
nes were represented and the candi-
dacy of George NJ. Young OF Valley
City for speaker Of the house was un
animously endorsed. Logan county
was not represented but the represent
atives from that county are favorable
to Mr.. Young's candidacy.
All the representatives present ex-
pressed confidence in Mr.. Young
candidacy. He was among those pres
at the caucus. He has assurances Of
support frtm all over the state and
is confident of his success.
The situation seems to be very favor
able to the election of Mr.. Young.
Other candidates for the speakership
who have been prominently mentioned
are Thomas Baker of Fargo and Cass-
ell Of Trail Baker seem to have
fallen down in his efforts to secure
the Cass county delegation and Cass-
ell has not developed any great
strength. Young seems to have devel-
oped enough strength to assure his
election, unless the unexpected should
happen.
The senatorial situation was not
discussed at the meeting, it is given
out.

Funeral Services.
There Is reaper, whose name is death,
And with hia sick1o Loon

There Is a reaper whose name Is death,
And with his sickle keen
He reaps the bearded grain at u breath
And the flowers that grow between.
At the residence of John B. Fried.
Fourth Avenue South, this afternoon
the simple, impressive funeral services
of Olga Louisa Fried, aged two years
ten months and four days, were said
the last tribute of loving hearts to the
dear one transplanted to bloom again
in fields of light above. The services
were conducted by Rev. Phillips.
Her death was caused by pneumonia,
preceded by measles and whooping
cough.
During the latter part of her illness
she frequently said, "Mama, let me
sleep; l am so tired" Words which
suggested that most appropriate hymn,
"Asleep in Jesus! Blessed sleep,
From which none ever wakes to weep.''
1t was sung by Claudine Chenery.
Longfellow's "Holy Dead" by a trio
Of girls, was pretty tribute.
Rev. Phillips brief remarks were
bright with hope for the future and
full of comfort for the bereaved par
ents. 'Safe in the Arms of Jesus, -
sung by Miss Josephine Smith, was a
fitting benedict.on.
Several wreathes and large quanti-
ties OF cut flowers were sent by various
orders, and by friends and relatives.
MIR. and Mrs. Fried have the sympa-
thy of a large circle of friends, not
only in jamestown but throughout the
entire country.
The interment took place at High
land Home cemetery, several carriages
going out, Notwithstanding the day
was cold.

DEATH OF WILLIAM CONSTANT.
We'll Known Farmer of Stutsman
County Died After Brief
Illness.

William Constant died at his farm
of Jamestown at 10 o'clock
Friday after illness Of but brief dur
alton OF penumonia
Mr.. Constant was one of the best
known farmers of the county. He had
been resident of Stutsman county
Tor many yelrs, was thrifty and pro-
gresslve and will be sadly missed by
his neighbors.
He leaves family consisting of his
wife and seven,children.
The unfortunate demise of Mr..
Constant. as comparatively Young
man, is greatly regretted by all who
knew him, and the efforts he made to
accomplish his purpose in life. He
came to the county in the early eigh-
ties and took land about fifteen miles
from the city. He afterwards rented
the Winslow farm and later bought
quarter north of the big Wells farm.
which ne bought several years ago.
Mr.. Constant had one or two years of
hard luck with hail, but was determ-
lned TO win out in the large undertake
ing which he assumed. He was a hard
working man and did not take the,
care OF his health at all times which
prudence would require, and the haul
ing OF grain to market after getting
heated in the work Of loading it is
said to have been one of the means Of
undermining his system. He had an,
attack OF the measels which kept him
IN the house for week and which de-
veloped into pneumonia. He had be-
come run down in health and was un-
able to stand the attack of the disease.
which soon proved fatal.
Mr.. Constants death will be sin
cerely regretted, as he was a good cit.
izen and neighbor and had the respect,
Of all.
The funeral services of w. L. Con-
slant took place at the home Monday
afternoon and was largely attended.
His death was caused by measles. ter.
mlnating in pneumonia, which gave
him much pain and suffering. He
was conscious until the last.
The deceased was very kind hearted
and generous, putting great stress on
morals and honesty, and had won to
himself many true friends who mourn
his departure 50 soon
AS parent and husband he could
not be excelled. for he was very affec-
tionate to bis family, sacrificing his
all to their comfort and happiness:
this may be remembered by the costly
presents he had concealed for their
Christmas, and were found prior to
his death.
The deceased was not a member of
any church. but on his sick bed ac-
knowledged Christ as lis personal
savior giving expressions to his hap
piness, and bidding farewell to the
family one by one his spirit awaited
the death angel.
Rev. Y. D. Poole Of the Methodist
church Oftciated at the funeral.
Farewell, dear one, long farewell,
For we shall meet no more
Till we be raised with Christ to dwell
On lions happy shore.
If faithful. we shall shortly leave
This world for that above:
And with our dear one shall ever live
In bonds of JOY and love.
Farewell, dear one, again farewell:
We soon shall rise to thee:
And when we meet no tongue can tell
How great our joys will be.

MONEY FOR LAND INVESTORS.
Advantages Of Stutsman County and
the Great Profits in
Stock.

G. y. Wheelock of the North Da-
kota Land & Investment co. was in
Medina Saturday on company busi-
ness. Speaking of the growth of this
part Of the state and Stutsman coun-
ty, Mr.. Wheelock said to an Alert re-
porter:
"Stutsman county is one of the best
all round farming and stock counties
in the state, and from the rapid fash
ion that the lands are being taken by
actual settlers, l expect to see the
population materially increased in the
next few years by good class of set
tiers. The government lands are going
at rate that will soon exhaust every
government quarter and not only are
the men without capital coming here
to get your cheap lands, but farmers
with money and experience in farm
ing from other states are getting a
foothold before the lands are too high.
Stutsman county lands are cheaper
than those of any county east of here
and are yet low in value compared
with the prices they are asking and
getting in Ransom and Sargent and
other counties, where no better lands
than are offered for sale here at $40
to Sl5 are selling at from SIS to S25
an acre.
81 notice good many new settlers
going on to the western part of the
county. Last week we closed a deal
wi Oh one of the type Of good farmers
who are coming here. Mr.. H. c.
Harken of Laketield, MINI. bought a
quarter section of our company. He
brings with him 36 head of cattle, and
horses and has money besides. He
located some three miles from Medina
and will no doubt do we'll in the stock
business. He bought homestead and
will live in the county. Men of his
class can bank on their stock for it is
certain to be sure paying invest
ment. 1t is good thing for your
county that your banks are assisting
reliable men to get started in the
stock business, and it is fortunate
that there is ample capital here to
help those who need the help.
II heard from one train load of
Stutsman county cattle that were
shipped to Iowa and finished after
leaving here this fall. The owners
said they cleared a handsome profit
over what it would have cost them to
raise and feed the stock in Iowa. /
think they figured that the profit was
from $40 to Sl2 a head over the Iowa
raised stock. Our cheap grass is
where the profit lies.
II heard of another result in the
raising of stock in the Red river val
ley, that is encouraging to farmers
in that part of the state who wish to
get out of exclusive wheat growing.
One Of the big farmers in Cass county
planted 200 acres of corn and bought
200 head of young cattle. In addition
to the corn, the stock were fed during
the winter speltz and barley, and ev-
cry item of cost kept as accurately as
possible. l am informed that the
profit on the transaction was 81, 200.
