o OF THE PRAIRIE.
Every North Dakotan Should Have a
Copy Of Prof. WiIlardss Book.


"The Story of the Prairies." by Prof
Daniel f. Willard, Of the Normal
school at Mayville, is a book to which
We would call the attention of our
readers and the citizens of the state
generally as one of special interest
and value, and which deserves a wide
reading. 1t is a book unique in its
character. as a work of similar char
acter and scope has been written
about few states. The New York Out
look says very aptly that "it is a sug-
gestion of what should be in book
form concerning every state" The
book has been very highly reviewed
and commended by the press of North
Dakota and the eastern press, and it's
sales have been UNEXPECTEDLY large
in the eastern states. But il is to the
people of North Dakota that ii appeals
most strongly. for it is the best write
up Of the state as to the natural re-
sources of soil. coal, water supply and
general agricultural features of the
state which has appeared since state
hood. 1t explains the character of
The land in every part of the state.
The Red River valley is not repre-
scented as the whole thing" but every
section and county receives cOnsidera-
ton and fair treatment. The level
lands. the grazing lands. the extensive
coal beds-all are treated from the
scientific standpoint of the causes
which produced them but all in
simple and readable language.
The book is on sale at the Capitol
book store in this city or i. may be
had by addressing the author. Prof.
D. =. Willard, Mayville. n. d.
The book has been published at the
authors own expense. and it would be
only benefitting that the citizens of the
state should make use of the work
which has been done for their benefit
so far as may be.

The Easv Pill.

DeWitt's Little Early Risers do not
grippe nor weaken the system. They
cure biliousness, %jaundice, constipa-
ton and inactive livers, by arousing
the secretions, moving the bowels
gently, yet effectually. and giving such
tone and strength to the glands of the
stomach, liver and bowels that the
cause of the trouble is removed en-
tirely. These famous little pills exert
a decided tonic effect upon the organs
involved, and if their use is continued
for a few days there will be no return
of the trouble. T.. G Patterson & Co.

NEGRO LYNCHED.

Last night a mob Of from ], 300 to
.. 600 men at midnight attacked the
Wilmington, Del, workhouse and, after
a battle with the guards, dragged out
out George White, the negro who the
coroner's Jury declared guilty of the
murder of Miss Helen Bishop, and at
1890 were preparing to burn him at the
stake. The negro was taken to the
scene of the crime. He there confessed
to having assaulted the girl. He was
then burned to the stake and his body
riddled with bullets.
Shortly after nine o'clock Chief War
den Meserve. of the workhouse, asked
for help from Wilmington in guarding
the institution, and Chief of Police
Black at once responded by sending a
squad of 80 officers to the inst tuition in
a special trolley car When the police
arrived they found an immense mob had
gathered, but there was then no show of
violence. The police, reinforcing the
workhouse deputies, made total OF 90
men guarding the institution. The
mob. the largest of the kind ever
gathered in Delaware, appeared to
be equally divided between Prices
Corner, near the scene of the tragedy,
and the workhOuse building proper
The authorities had more to fear from the
Prices Corner gang, as the men in it were
of more determined character. They
were fully armed with shotguns, pistols
and ropes. They had come from Rising
Sun, Md, and other towns in the vicin-
ity of the workhouse, for word was sent
all through the northern end of the cOun-
tv for the men to assemble for desperate
work. Before the call for the police was
received an attempt was made to use the
Delmarvia telephone to call up the work
house. but it was found that the wires OF
this line had been cut, shutting off COM
munication by this means. The crowd
was being constantly increased by persons
who went from Wilmington. a majority
of the men who went in the cars were
armed with pistols. 1t was reported that
MANY OF the men in the mob had dyna-
mite with them and that the quarries IN
the northern part of the county had been
robbed of the explosive. The mob bat
tered in the doors of the workhouse. They
had threatened to blow up the building.

burned at the stake.

Wilmington, Del, June 23.-The
lawless vengeance wreaked upon George
+. White, a negro, by burning him at
the stake last night, for assaulting Miss
Helen S. Bishop, daughter of the Rev.
DIR. f. A. Bishop, is the first time that
lynch law has obtained in the State. In
cited to vengeance by sermon preached
by the Rev. Robert A. Elwood, four
thousand men under the command Of a
leader, said to be virginian, and us
ing railroad ties as battering rams charg-
ed the jail and the doors gave way. The
mob rushed into the hallway and beat
down more doors. A yolley from police
and Jail guards met the crowd as il jam
med in the building, and four men were
taken away wounded. Those in the
rear kept pushing those in the front and
the sheriff, not wishing to slaughter the
mob, ordered the hose turned on. The
sheriff and his men were flung aside and,
with the help of man who knew White,
the negro was found. The cell door
was beaten in and the negro dragged out
crying and pleading for mercy. A great
cheer arose from the mob outside when
the word was passed that the negro was
found aud there were many who wanted
him shot on the spot. The leaders in
sisted that he must be burned and Whites
hands were tied behind him. Quickly
the march to the place of execution was
commenced and the negro was led 70 the
very place where he had assaulted Miss
Bishop. There, while four thousand
men looked on, he confessed his crime.
A stake had been driven in the ground
and to it the negro was bound hand and
foot while dry underbrush, soaked with
oil, was ignited. For over an hour the
mob watched the flames as they ate theiI
way into the negro's body, leaving but
charred remains which were picked W
as souvenirs. What was left of the
incinerated torso was taken in charge by
the deputy coroner this morning. The
mob quietly dispersed.

GALVESTON INCIDENT CLOSED.

The United States has made con-
cession with respect to the removal OF
the cruiser Galveston. The situation
is fully satisfactory to all concerned. The
government acknowledges the authority
of the State court and is permitted
without further hindrance to take the
ship and complete it while the claims
of the Trigg creditors are safeguarded
pending decision in the court OF last
resort. Judge L. L. Lewis, United
States district attorney, appeared before
Judge Grinnan, of the ChaDcery Court,
in Richmond yesterday, and obligated
the government to recognize the ship as
the property of the Trigg Company until
the matter is finally decided in the
courts, and Judge Grinnan at once filed
an order dissolving his injunction and
freeing the Galveston. The cruiser will
probably be launched some time this
week. The agreement governing the
Galveston also applies to the Benynard,
an ocean dredge also building at the
Trigg yard for the government.
The Navy Department has been in
formed of the release of the Galveston,
and steps will be taken to launch the yes
sci as soon as possible.
The creditors of the Trigg Company
contended that the government would
be put to additional expenses in complet.
ing the Galveston at Norfolk. Should
extra expense be occasioned the govern
ment will call on the sureties of the Trigg
Company to pay any excess of cost over
the limit fixed by Congress. The naval
officers in charge of the Galveston have
set Wednesday at $3.50 o'clock in the
afternoon for launching the ship, proyid-
ed Miss Ella Sealey, the sponsor, can
reach Richmond by that time.
