WE'LL ALL TAKE A RIDE SOON
Capitol Commissioners Let Contract for
Electrical Machinery for Trolley Line
and Lighting Plant.

The State board of capitol commits
sioners, consisting of Governor White
Secretary Porter and Auditor Holmes,
has been in session for the past day
or two, considering the improvements
to be made at the capitol this year.
Architect Beebe submitted the plans
he has prepared for the new wing
and the interior changes, and the
board is considering them, in order to
have everything in readiness when
work begins. The capitol proposition
like the other institution additions. is
in statu quo, pending the settlement
of the bond question. but the board
desires to have everything in readi-
ness to begin work at once, if the
matter is settled favorably to the in
stitutions.
Bids were received for the other
supplies necessary and contracts
awarded
Two engines are required, one of
$50 horse power and one of 75. with
steam separators. j. G. Robertson
was present representing the Ideal
engine, made in Springfield, H., and
Mr.. Kirk represented the firm of Rob-
inson & Cary Co. st. Paul. The bid
of the Ideal people. s3.2SS, was ac
cepted, it being S4S lower than that
of Robinson & Cary Co.
There were four competitors for the
electric machinery. A generator of
100 kilowatt capacity is wanted to
generate power for the trolley line to
the capitol and 80 kilowatt machine
is required for the electric light
plant. The contract for the outfit
was awarded to the Commercial Elec
trio Co., of Indianapolis. for s2S51,
which is about $1,000 lower than the
propositions of the Westinghouse,
General Electric and Fort Wayne peo-
pie. The Indianapolis people are not
so well known in the Northwest but
it Is claimed that in Indianapolis and
throughout Indiana and Illinois this

q most minute examination OF the pa
tient, listening to his breathing and
testing his lungs. Shortly after the
following bulletin was issued:
THE pope passed restless night,
without sleep. Nourishment, however,
has been more freely taken and the
general condition of the patient is
little more reassuring An objective
examination shows change in the
right of the thoraX and the middle
lobe of the lung, which up to Monday
did not permit the passage of air. now
allows the air to pentrate. On the
other hand the interior zone has be-
come more obtuse and the transmits
sion of vocal and tactile vibration is
wanting. This leads to the belief that
there is liquid in the pleura. The ac-
tion of the heart is depressed, so much
SO as to render the renal function in
/ sufficient and to cause cyanosis in the
last phalanges of the hands,
Willingly Submits to Operation.
The calmness with which the pope
underwent the ordeal of the operation
was one of the most remarkable evi-
dences of fortitude that he had given
in his whole life. After lengthy con
ference the doctors concluded it was
advisable TO operate for pleurisy, the
primary purpose being to explore the
affected parts. They hoped Incl
dentally to draw off the collected fluid.
When their determination was COM
municated to the pontiff he showed no
anxiety. On the contrary he submit
ted very willingly, expressing the hope
that good results might come, recalling
the successful results following DR..
Mazzoni's operation some years ago
for cyst. AS the operation was not OF
a capital nature no chloroform was
used The pope lay on his bed with his
left side exposed below the armpit to
The waist. Only the two doctors and
two personal attendants were within
the chamber The immediate direction
OF the operation devolved on DR.. MAJ
zoni who handled the instruments
and made the preparatory arrange
ments. Under his skillful guidance
the operation scarcely occupied over
four minutes.
The pope manifested no pain what
ever, neither was there the slightest
! culver of moral dread of the operation.

company is successfully competing
against all the old companies
The Fargo Plumbing and Heating
Company, through Mr.. Price. secured
the contract for installing a new heat
ing system in the present capitol
building to take the place OF the pres
ent obsolete and expensive system
The new system is known as the Paul
vacuum system. Mr. Price had one
competitor, the Warren Webster sys-
TEN, but Prices bid of S2,567 was
S233 lower than his opponent and he
was awarded the contract.
The matter of ties and rails for the
street car line was left open, and En-
sineer Foster will go east in few
days to look at some second hand
rails that are offered at a bargain
He will also investigate the car prop
osition. 1t is possible that something
applicable in the second hand line viii,
be found where average size cars are
being replaced by larger ones.
1t is expected that all the machinery
and material ordered for the trolley
line will be on the ground in sixty
or eighty days and as the grading and
laying of the track will require but q
short period ride to the capitol from,
the Washburn derot is an assured fact
before snow flies this fall.

WOULD AMEND THE TREATY
Colombian Congressman Now In New York;
Discusses the Canal Treaty and Modi-
fication that Would Insure Adoption.

United States is the only government
which
Can Build the Canal.
The fortltication OF the canal prac-
tically is equal to the doubling of this
nations navy In return for this great
advantage Colombia wants something
of more permanent good than the mere
money consideration.
we realize, though, that Colombia
will be benefited by the increased SHIP
ping facilities from the Pacific TO the
Atlantic, and the value OF land VIII be
enhanced 1t will also revive some or
our dormant industries and give en-
ployment to thousands.
with some modification to be
agreed TO by both sides and with mu-
tual good will / think that the treaty
can be made acceptable, for we Colon
bians appreciate the necessity ior the
canal and the great good it will Go.
Il doubt that President Marroquln
will use any executive pressure to Sc
cure the passage of the treaty, but VIA
leave it entirely to the legislature.

The loss of property and growing
crops is very heavy. The river below
Yuma averages about ten miles II

THE PURE FOOD REGULATIONS
Pure Food Commissioner OF the State Laws
Down Some Rules for the Guidance OF
Dealers in Food Products.

Prof E. F. Ladd, state pure food
commissioner, has issued the follow
ing circular:
The Pure Food Law went into ef-
merchants should see that all goods
purchased comply with the require

The question is very generally ask
ed by The merchants. We have these
goods in the state nenv
neither the merchant or wholesaler in
selecting the goods knew that they

there is but one honorable course to

long periods of time will be ew.mpt
from inspection until July / 1904
This applies only to goods now in the
state. The order may be revoked
where the privilege is abused
All goods shipped into the state
after July 1st will be subject to in
spection wherever found. Therefore
we ask all merchants to see that their
goods, now in stock be disposed of by
the dates mentioned.
All new goods received after July
1st are to be identified by the several
invoices held by merchants The
same ruling applies to wholesalers,
manufacturers, and jobbers in North
Dakota as TO the retail merchants;

for all other products. There will be
many changes in labels on goods sold

In the future, many food products
will not be so highly colored as in
the past Color is no indication OF
food value or of flavor. Remember,
in some instnces, colored food prod

TELEGRAPHIC NEWS.


New York, April 3.-Two lives were
lost and half dozen persons burned and
otherwise injured in fire in a six-story
tenement on Henry street this morning.
The dead were found on the top floor
after the fire had been subdued. One
body was that of a child, and the other
of a man. Mrs. G. Applebaum with
her two-year-old baby, tried to escape
by way Of the stairs Smoke and flames
drove her back and she ran to the front
window. Screaming to attract the at
tention of the throng in the street below,
she suddenly flung the baby out of the
window. Roundsman Cary was stand
ing on the curb. He reached up and
caught the child in his arms. 1t was
not injured. Mrs. Rebecca Greenberg
and her two children, Dora and Irene,
in spite of warnings from fremen, jump
ed from the second-story widow, the
woman breaking both legs. Today s
fire was in the heart of the-Jewish quar-
ters only short distance from the tene-
ment on Rivington street, which was
burned last night, and where woman
lost her life and half a dozen persons
were injured.

TROUBLE IN HAITI.

The situation in Santo Domingo city
is vory critical. The commander of the
United States cruiser Atlanta, which ar
rived at Santo Domingo from Cape Haiten
Wednesday, landeda detachment of fifty
bluejackets to guard the United States
consulate general in that city.
A shell fired Wednesday night by the
Dominican cruiser Presjdente, which is
on the side of President Vasquez, fell on
the German consulate. The damage
done, however, was purely material, as
the projectile happily did not burst.
A battle lasting three hours took place
Wednesday morning between the govern
ment troops and the revolutionists on the
banks of the River Ozama, which flows
into the Caribbean Sea at Santo Domin-
go. A hundred men were killed or
wounded.
President Vasquez demands the surren-
der of Santo Domingo city, but the re-
volutionists are disposed to resist up the
last moment.
All communication and news from the
interior is interrupted, and business is
practically suspended. A quantity of
arms and ammunition was shipped yes
terday on a gunboat, which is in the
hands of the rebels, for an unknown
destination. The situation is critical.
