Conductor Killed.


A Grand Forks special says The
accidental death of Conductor M. S.
Mongovern of the east side on the N.
P. between Grafton and Pembina Sun
cay morning was doubly sad owing to
the death of an infant child a few
hours before. The conductors train
recame stuck in the snow north of
Grafton and Pembina was asked to
send help. Two engines were sent.
In the darkness they crashed into the
caboose of the stalled train and Con-
ductor Mongovern was accidentally
killed.
His little son, 4 days old, had died
Saturday at noon, and the remains
were awaiting the return of the father
from his trip. Mrs. Mongovern was
not told Of her double loss until this
morning and is now in serious con-
dition from the shock.
The coroner's inquest at Grafton de-
cided death was accidental and the re-
mains were brought to a local under
taking shop.

REPLY OF RUSSIA.
Comedies Nothing in Manchuria and
Claims Part OF Korea.

Comedies Nothing in Manchuria and
Claims Part OF Korea.
st. Petersburg, Feb. 9.-The reply
of Russia, summarized closely, amounts
to this: ., .a :
First-Russia does not recognize
Japan's interference with her relations
with China. Russia will concede moth
ing on any point whatsoever in Man
churia, except that she does not wish
to interfere with any rights acquired
by other nations, but she point blank
refuses 10 give any. guarantee. .
Second-Russia is prepared to rec
ognize the second part of Korea, under
the latitude of 80 degrees, as being
within the sphere of Japanese inf1u-
ence, which country must undertake
not to fortify the littoral nor to send
any further troops there and at once
to recall any troops sent there.
Third-Russia will have full free
dom of action iu the northern portion
of Korea, above the degree 80.
Fourth-Neither country shall enjoy
In the country at present belonging to
Korea any privileges not enjoyed by
the other.

JAPANESE CUT CABLE.
Would Prevent News of Operations
Reaching Russians.

Paris, Feb. 9.-The French foreign
Office has been advised that the Jap
anese have cut the cable connecting
Japan and Korea. The object of this
action is believed to be to prevent
news of the operations of the Japanese
reaching the Russians, which was pos
sible no matter how closely censored
the dispatches sent might be.
Following the breaking off of rela-
tons between Russia and Japan the
, cutting of the cable is regarded here
as significant of the purpose OF the
Japanese to begin hostilities.
| 1t is learned that among the troops
sent by Russia to the vicinity of the
Yalu river are $4,000 Cossacks, whose
province it is to destroy the commune
cations of any Japanese army landing
along the coast or trying to strike the
! Port Arthur railroad. The French
military experts consider this a goo6
tactical move. for the reason that thu
| Japanese have only small cavalr.
force, insufficient to cope with that o
the Russians,

Socrates called beauty q short-lived

q solitary kingdom, Homer a glorious

none Of these distinguished authorities
has left us even a hint of how beauty
is to be perpetuated, or the ravages of
age and disease defed. Time soon

the arrival OF the N. p. Ry. there, and
was spasmod ideally engaged in the
newspaper business there. He here
had several years litigation over some
land which is known as Aliens addi-
ton, and won out against the NJ, p,
which property is all that the judge
left to his family. The judges last
newspaper adventure was in establish
ing the first newspaper in Alfred coun-
ty, N. D., in company with "Old Bill,
MUMMY. This venture proved a. fail
ure, as the county at that time 1901
was sparsely settled. ,.
"The judge was an old veteran of
81, and as soon as the weather per-
mits, his remains will be removed
from Buford to Glendive and buried
with military honors."
With reference to the statement
that the Bozeman paper published the
first account of the Custer massacre,
we must defer to Col. Lounsberry. who
was then publisher of the Tribune
and who had the story from those who
came down on the Far West, and also
the diary of Mark Kellogg, killed with
Custer. Kellogg was the Tribune
correspondent.

EN- ROUTE TO KOREA.
Portion Of Japanese Fleet Sails From
SaSI1o

Berlin, Feb. 9.-The German foreign
Office has been advised that a portion
of the Japanese fleet sailed from Sasho
Sunday. Its destination is unknown,
but is supposed to be Chemulpo, Ko-
rea.
The German government is prepared
to issue a proclamation of severe neu-
trality should hostilities begin.
The popular German feeling is d.
vided between a certain admiration
for the little people of Japan and the
necessarily greater community of in
terest in international politics and
trade with big neighbor. Germany's
neutral attitude is complex OF vague
territorial hopes in China, long stand
ing intolerance of Japan's ambitious
dislike of Russia and desire to sep
arate Russia from France by winning
Russia's good will.

Five O'Clock Tea.

The entertainment given by Mrs.
John II. Carpenter Friday afternoon
for Mrs j. +. K Carpenter was
one OF the striking successes OF the
season. The palatIal home present
ed brilliant and beautiful scene, with
choicest flowers everywhere and num-
beTs Of candles and an assemblage of
elegantly gowned ladies. The reception
room was in pink anc white. and the
magnitcence OF the flowers and their
tasteful arrangement could not fail to
impress themselves indelibly upon each
guest.

throughout the room. At the service
were Mrs. Eugene Anderson, who wore

The most lavish display of beauty was,

beautiful. ln the centre of this room
