the PUBLIC DRUG STORE.
Arthur c. Hanson to Open Splen=
did New Pharmacy in the new
Blaisdell & Bird Blackstone
to be Open about December |.

About the first Of December
Arthur C. Hanson, a prominent
young pharmacist of this city,
will open a new drug store in
Minot, to be known as the Pub
lie Drug Store. The new phar-
macy will be located at the corn
er Of Second and Main streets in
the new Blaisdell and Bird block
which is now almost completed.
The fixtures have been ordered
for some time and they will be
something different from any,
thing yet in Minot, and no fix
lures in the Northwest will out
shine them. They are made
from oak and the finish is known
as the silver gray. Mr.. Hanson
informs US that his store will be
a prescription pharmacy, pro-
gressive place, devoid of any old
stock. Next spring he intends
buying an elegant soda fountain.
The room will be extra light and
we'll arranged. The corner en-
trance will give it a splendid ap-
pearance. The floor will be tiled.
Mr.. Hanson is a druggist who
knows his business. He is a
hustler, is accommodating and
we'll liked. His ideas are pro-
gressive AS manager of the
Towner Drug Co. he attracted a
good deal of attention. His adj
vertisements were favorably
commented upon by the leading
drug journals. That the Public
Drug store will succeed is the
belief and wish Of Mr.. Hanson's
friends.

North DakOtan at WenatChee.

John Bishop, formerly OF Glen
burn, who recently moved to
Wenatchee, WASH, likes the
country fine. We print an ex-
tract from a letter received by
one of his Minot friends:
This leaves US better satisfied
than in North Dakota. We like
the place fine. The weather is
grand. Last night we had quite
a rain, but today the sun is shin
ing bright. The grass is green,
and flowers in blossom in the
yard. We can see the snow up
on the mountains. Wenatchee
is on the Columbia river. We
can see the steam boats come in
from our house. A fair was
held here the last week of Octo-
Der. The fruit display was
grand. An apple weighing two
and a half pounds was on exhib-
it. Fine fruit is raised here.
The land in the valley is all irri-
gated and is worth from $500 to
$4,000 an acre. Most fruit
ranches consist of five acres and
none more than ten acres. The
population Of Wenatchee is about
5000 and the town is still grow
ing. An empty house is hard to
find for so many people are COM
ing in from the east. +"
Mr.. Bishop has invested in
two houses. AS he is a hustler,
he will make a big success in the
west.

Judge G0ss' Vacation.

When court convenes Dec. 3,
there is a question as to whether
or not Judge Goss will have a
vacation for an entire year, pro-
viding he stays with the cases
until they are all wiped from
the calendar. There are now
215 civil cases pending and up
to date about forty criminal
cases. Providing that one case
is attended to a day, it will re-
quire 255 days to complete the
work. It is believed that Judge
Goss will soon be able to hold
court in Minot the year round.

not wishing to gain any note RI

mentioning their names.
One lady, the wife OF a doctor,

second day she got gloriously

girl had stolen the goods for a

NARROW ESCAPE.

HACKENSACK, N. j., June 25.-The
discovery of two tin boxes, containing
two hundred dynamite blasting caps in
flint sand, shipped to the Federal Match
Company's plant at Garfield, NJ" leads
the authorities to believe that an at
tempt was made to blow up the plant
and kill several workmen.
The discovery was made late Saturday
night when John Bennett was shoveling
sand from a box received two days ago
from West Virginia. Fortunately the
shovel only touched the package suffic.
iently to warn him of its presence. The
tin boxes were wrapped in sheets Of a
Philadelphia paper dated April B. 1905.
The police say that had Benefits shovel
hit the box with sufficient force to ex-
plode the caps the plant would have been
wrecked and several persons killed.

SAN FRANCISCO. June 25.-Dr. A,
Beattie, an American missionary who
arrived here yesterday from China on
the Siberia, had an experience with
Chinese robbers shortly before the left
Canton, where he has been stationed for
years. DR.. Beattie's residence was in
the heart of the city. Anchored in the
river within less than 200 yards from
his house was the United States monitor
Monadnock. Patrolling the streets We're
native policemen who frequently passed
the house. One night DIR. Beattie, his
wife, children and servants were sud
denly awakened to find a strong yellow
hand across his or her mouth and slant
eyed yellow face confronted each of the
Beatties while in the dim glow of fish
lanterns glittered sharp knives. The
house was in the possession of 80 rob
bers. Every member of the family was
gagged and tied to bed post. The
band of burglars then stripped the house
of everything that was of any value.
Despite the fact that a United States
warship was lying so close to the house
and police patrols were passing at fire.
quent intervals, the robbers. heavily bur-
dened with their loot. made their escape.
The Chinese government promised re-
paration, but up to the time that he left
Canton, Dr. Beattie had received moth
ing but apologies.

KEEP TO OLD CHANNEL.
Bar Pilots Refuse to Change Even If
New Route Is Better.

Acting upon the advice of the Bar
Pilots Association, the lighthouse de-
partment will not change the buoys
which mark the old channel across the
Columbia River bar. The pilots claim
that the present channel is as good as
any other which could be picked out,
and they intend to use it. The recent
government soundings show that much
deeper water can be secured to the south
of the inner buoy. There has always
been more or less wrangling about this
matter by the pilots and the United
States engineers, and the stand taken by
the former shows they intend to remain
obstinate.
As matter of fact, the lighthouse
people say that ships can cross the bar
at almost any point, there not being
much of a choice in any of the locations.
They explain that the bar has narrowed
down to a very small strip during the
past six months, showing that the jetty
is gradually wearing it away. Before the
end of the shipping season it is believed
that the channel will be from two to
three feet deeper than at present.
The department has again put the
light in place at the st. Helens jetty,
which was recently discontinued on ac-
count of high water. A late chart pre-
pared shows that the Columbia River
lightship now occupies the following
position off North Head Northeast
