CANE
IN REAL LARGE
PUNCHES
Alleged Holdup and Running
Chase By Police Stirred
Two Cities Last Night.

About 9:45 last evening a transient
named Al Young and claiming Grand
Rapids as his home was shot in both
arms in front of Lynch and Gallagher's
saloon. Young's companion. man
named Tom Collins. says that as they
were conversing together in front of
the saloon, a man suddenly rushed nm
and made a grab for YOung's watch.
A short scuffie took place and the as
sa1lant, whose name Is not known.
drew a large revolver and deliberate
iy shot three times. two of the balls
taking effect.
Immediately crowd gathered and
pursued the would-be murderer across
the bridge. On this side of the river,
Ofhcer Blue hearing the shots rushed
to the end of the bridge, where the
man ran past him unopposed. Blue, it
is said, then fired several shots in an
endeavor to stop the fellow, but his
Efforts proved futile and the hold-up
artist escaped from what the specta-
tors thought was sure capture. Run
ming short distance along DeMers
avenue, he lodged up the tracks in the
rear OF the st. Johns block and thence
north toward the Northern Pacific
depot. Several people on Third street
near the Hotel Dacotah, hearing the
noise, ran to the back of the hotel and
almost into the fleeing man.
About II o'clock a man was seen
lodging up the alley in the rear of
the Hotel Northern, and it is thought
that the robber doubled back after
reaching the Northern Pacific depot
and went south along Fifth street to
the Northern. After that his course
Is unknown save that he was later
seen in the Great Northern freight
yards. Chief Lowe searched for three
hours in the yards, but with hundreds
of empty cars the task was like look
ing for needle in hay stack.
There is considerable speculation in
the city as to who the men are. It *
claimed by many that those directly
concerned in the ARRAY are trio of
bad actors and that quarrel prob
ably arose over the division of GER
tain spoils, wherefore the shooting.
The would-be murderer is described
as a man of medium height, wearing
the clothes of a working man, and
with dark beard of about six weeks
growth. The injured man was taken
to DR.. Gilbert's Office and from there
to the Great Northern hotel. where
he was made as comfortable as pos
siple. The man Collins has disap-
peared and the police of both cities
are now searching for him.
The story of the watch stealing is
not given great amount of credence.
The shooting of the officers caused
the gathering of large crowd of en-
cited men on DeNiers avenue.

ARE We TO HAVE PADEREWsM?
He Will Be Passing Through Grand
Forks Some: Time Between
October and May.

Paderewski's great tour of 19O7-OS
is being rapidly booked by his man
ager. c. A. Ellis, of Boston. 1t is ex-
pected that he will give 1876 concerts
between the first of October and the
first of May. his itinerary extending
from the east to the Pacific coast. and
passing through Grand Forks, De-
mands' for him are being received
daily from all parts of the country and
one interesting thing about them is
the large number of cities of consid-
cradle importance that have never
heard him. Many of these will be
visited this year. There seems to be
no diminution of interest in this great
pianist and his tour even now, over
a year in advance. promises to be a
greater success than any of those
which have preceded it.
The question now arises. shall an
effort be made to secure the great
artist for Grand Forks? There are
1000 houses in this city. 1T is safe
to- presume that in every second one
there is Il piano. and where there is a
piano it is safe to presume there is a
pianist. All these ought to be eager
to hear the. great artist and steps to
that end ought to be taken immed-
lately.

CHARLES W|THAM'S.
UNFORTUNATE
AFFAIR
Wife and Ted Stirling of Moor
head In Jail Charged With
Adultery.

Due entirely to the timely arrival
of an officer who interfered, Charles T.
Witham, son Of Rev. and. Mrs. Henry
Witham of this city, is today enjoying
liberty, instead of being in Jail charged
with manslaughter or murder.
In his place Mrs. Witham, a pretty
dark-eyed girl of less than twenty
summers, and Ted Stirling, a shooting
gallery proprietor of Moorhead, and
we'll known in this city, now occupy
cell in the city Jail at Moorhead,
charged with the crime of adultery.
1t seems that Mr.. Witham, we'll
behaved and steady young man, en-
ployed in the Evening Times press
room as pressman, started his wife
Saturday on a trip home to Kalama-
zoo, Mich. Instead of continuing to
her destination, Mrs. Witham, by a
pre-arrangement, dropped off the train
at Glyndon, MINI. with Stirling, spent
that night there, and yesterday went
to Moorhead. Mr. Witham heard of the
condition of affairs through railway
men, and last evening went south in
search of Mrs. Witham. This morning
he located her with Stirling occupying
room in the Exchange hotel in Moor
head. He endeavored to break into
the room, but Stirling climbed a
transom and got into an adjoining
room, where he was arrested minute
or two later by an officer who appeared
on the scene and forced the door. As
500 as the door swung Witham pulled
out large revolver and fired. The
policeman, however, saw the move and
struck the young mans arm upward
diverting his aim. He then took the
gun away and arrested both Stirling
and Mrs. Withan1, who are now in Jail
and both of whom. it is expected and
announced by Witham himself, will be
prosecuted for adultery.

WHITE RAINSOWS.
They Are Formed by n Flns RaiA
and a Strong sun.

Though rainbOws are generally assO-
ciated with cOlors. there Is such a
phenomenon as white rainbow The
circumstances necessary for its fOrma-
ton are a fine rain and strong sun.
The phenomenon Is due to the optic
principle known as interference. II
the drops OF water be very small. the
Interference Of the rays causes such
complete overlapping OF the cOlors that
the bow appears white.
That Is to say. the various prismatic
cOlOrs, instead Of being thrown out
separately. as In the ordinary prism,
are thrown one ON the top Of the other.
and the light IL thrown by the sun, as
II were on a sheet Of rain. The fine
close rain produces the same effect as
a woven texture. This result ID still
more noticeable where fog takes the
place Of the rain.
The phenomenon Ia not often noticed,
because the conditions necessary TO the
formation Of q white rainbow are a
strong light. a close rain and a sun
lying near. the horizon. These three
conditions are not often present at the
same time.-LOndOn Standard.

SLEEPING CARS.
Ths First Grade Ones Were Thought
the Acme Of Comfort

Current advertisements describinythe
luxurious appointments offered the
modern traveller Oh sea and land give
point to the contrast afforded by the
facilities Of the middle OF the last cen,
fury. which were then regarded as the
height to which the passengers had a
right to aspire. The issue Of the Penn
sylvania Railroad and Mining Register
OF June ., 1856. said:
"The Buffalo Car company lately
shipped q lot Of ears for the Illinois
Central railroad which are far ahead
Of anything In their line yet seen in
the west. One Of them contained six
stateroOms, each room having two
seats with cushioned backs. long
enough for q person to lie upon. The
backs OF the seats are hung with
hinges at the upper edge, SO that they
may be turned up at pleasure. thus
forming two single berths. one over the
other, where persons may sleep with
Ill the comfort imaginable In one end
OF the car IL q small wash room, with
marble washbOwL looking glass. etc
On the opposite side OF the chr from
the staterOOms Is row OF seats with
revolving backs, similar to BARRIERS
chairs, 50 arranged that the occupant
may sit straight or recline In an easy
attitude at pleasure. The other nve
ears have each two or three similar
staterooms."
The birth Of the Pullman car came a
little later. In the spring Of 1853
George N. Pullman remOdeIed at
Bloomington, ILL.,, few Of the cars Of
the Chicago and Alton and made them
the FIRST Pullman sleeping cars.-RaiL
