Train That Is Expected to Beat All
RecOrds-Third-RaiI System.


NEW YORK. Aug. 23.-An electrical COM
pany at Lynn, Mass. is building a train
which is soon 10 be used in Illinois, says a
special dispatch from Lynn. and which the
engineers estimate will make ninety TO one
hundred miles an hour. 1t is added that the
track for the train in Illinois is almost
completed; that the line is about 80 miles
long, and is remarkable for solidity and
strength. As far as possible grades have
been eliminated. Electricity will be the mo-
tive power and the third rail system will
be used a train Of three cars has been built
for the first trials. The train viii be
equipped with twelve motors Of 120-horse
power each. Instead Of the high speed in
creasing the danger. it is claimed that the
train VIII be safer and run less risk of leaV
ing the rails than ordinary street car.
The theory held by electricians is that the
train is practically electrically welded TO
the track. and cannot leave it while the
power is on. The location OF the track is not
given in the dispatch.

LARGEST ON RECORD.
Amount Of Gold New In the United
States Treasury,

Washington, Sept. 9.-The sum OF
gold now in the United States treasury
exceeds that of any previous time in
the history of the country and with
one possible exception it exceeds that
of any country at any time in the his
tory of the world. The single reported
exception is that of Russia, about eight
years ago, when that country was pre-
pairing to resume gold payments. At
that time Russia is said to have had
in its treasury $59S,O0O,OOO in gold.
Last Saturday the vaults of the Unit
ed States treasury contained $573,.
936,194. an increase since July 1.
1901, of $79,Os7,S97. This stock of
gold is now being admitted at the rate
of from 100000 to 100000 a day with
no immediate prospect of cessation
in the deposits. This condition of
things is eminently satisfactory to the
treasury officials, who regard it is the
best possible evidence of prosperity
and of confidence in the financial sta.
bility of this country.
The gold now coming in is being re-
placed by gold certificates, United
States notes and silver certificates.

was announced that he was out of
danger. He suffered relapse, how
ever. and died after having been con-
fined to his bed for ten months. Will
lam N. Roach was born in Washington
Sept. Is, 1910. He was graduated from
Georgetown university. He served as
clerk in the United States quarter
masters department during the Civil
war. He removed to Dakota territory
In 1879, and having secured mail con-

eY GERMAN WARSHlP.
Haytian Vessel In Service Of the Fir
n1inist Party Sunk,

Cape Haytien, Hayti, Sept. S.-The
gunboat Crete-a-Pierrot, which was in
the service of the Firminist party, has
been sunk at the entrance of the har-
Dor of Gonaives by the German gun
boat Panther. Details of the occur
renee are lacking. The crew of the
Crete-a-Pierrot left her before she
went down.
The German gunboat Panther ar
rived here Sept. 5 and received in
structions from the German govern
ment to capture the Firminist gun
boat Crete-a-Pierrot. She left immedi-
ately for Gonaives, the seat of the
Firminist government. The Panther
found the Crete-a-Pierrot in the har-
Dor of Gonaives and the commander of
the German gunboat informed Admiral
Killick on the Crete-a-Pierrot that he
must remove his crew and surrender
his vessel in five minutes time. Ad-
miral Killick asked that this time be
extended to fifteen minutes. This re-
quest was granted on the condition
that the arms and ammunition on
board the Crete-a-Pierrot should be
abandoned whe he left her.
The crew of the Crete-a-Pierrot left
that vessel amid great disorder. At
the end of fifteen minutes the Panther
sent small boat carrying an officer
and twenty sailors who were to take
possession of the Firminist gunboat.
When the seamen had arrived at a
point about thirty yards from the
Crete-a-Pierrot, flames were seen to
break out on board of her. She had
been fired by her crew before they
left her. The Panther then fired on
the Crete-a-Pierrot until she was com
pletely immersed. Thirty shots all
told were fired.
There is much feeling here against
the Firminists and their cause Is con.
sidered to be a bad one. Soldiers

Date on Silver Coins.

Most people have an old silver coin
Of some kind which they are keeping
as relic either for sentimental rea-
sons or because they think it worth
more than its face value. In some in
stances the date or the inscription has
been worn away and it is impossible to
read it even with a strong glass.
The following method, originally
practiced at the mint to discover the
genuine coins when silver was called
in. will enable any one to read an OBJ
liberated inscriptions:
Make the poker redhot in the fire and
then place the silver coin on it. The
inscription will be plainly visible in
grcenish hue, which will fade as the
coin cools.-London Chronicle.

men who gave their names as George
Wagner and Back Baker. The fellows
were in drunken condition and en-
tered the drug store of B. L. Bentson

man in charge refused to sell them
the whisky and the men became an.

great style, the inside of the store
looking as though a cyclone had

general rough house entertainment
carried on. The men have been ar.

Old RenviIIe County Rebels,

A mass meeting was held at Rem
vile last week having for it's object
the organization of old Renville coun-
ty. This county is one of those which
the legislature of 1891 divided and
parceled out to neighbOring counties
In order to increase the revenues of
the state. The act was unconstitu-
tioual, as the matter was never prop
erly submitted to the vote of the peo-
pie and it is the object of this county
to carry the question before the s,l.
preme court for decision. ]. A. Sorley
of Grand Forks has been retained as
counsel and in all likelihood the off
cials Of Bottineau and Ward counties
will be enjoined from collecting taxes
IN Renville county. Bottineau county
has lately bonded heavily for payment
of new courthouse. This large and
costly building was erected in order
to hold the county seat at Bottineau,
as there was danger of it's being
moved nearer to the center of the
county. Heavily taxed and receiving
absolutely no benefit, being required
to drive overland from forty to sixty
miles and to ford the Mouse river and
other streams in order to reach the
county seat, the people of old Rem.
vile county have rebelled and are de-
termined to have county of their
own. In event Renville is successful
In securing favorable opinion from
the supreme court, other counties will
follow its example.
