Fine Methodist Church.

The contract for the building of the
new Methodist church in Minot has
been let. 1t will cost, $4,000. The
church will he 55x74 feet and will be
built, from the Twin City pressed
brick and trimmed with white stone.
The windows are to be of a very
pretty ornamental design of the latest
pattern. There will be a basement
under the entire structure, and the
church will be fitted up according to
the latest arrangements, having
boys club room and pastors study.
The Interior will be finished with fine
fixtures and as soon as the church is
completed they contemplate putting
in $4,000 pipe organ. The assembly
room of the church will have a seat
ing capacity of 600. Lord & Horton,
the contractors, will commence work
on the building as soon as the old
church can be moved away. The
Methodists will have the finest church
in this section of the state when they
have their new building completed.

CONTROLLED
Michigan Forest Fires Sub
dued SIS Tremendous
Property Loss

Milwaukee, Wis, May 21.-The
forest fires which have devastated
almost six counties of upper Michi-
gan, covering an area of at least 100
square miles, are under control. An
estimate, with figures, received from
various points of the peninsula places
the loss at 100000. It is probable
this figure will be increased when the
results OF the fire at points now cut
off from communication are known.
Quinnesesc, with a population of
5000, has been destroyed, as we'll as
seven or eight hamlets in the woods.
One man is known to have been
burned to death and a dispatch says
three children persisted when Quin-
nesesc burned. Refugees from the
lumber camps and burned villages
are pouring into Escanaba, Marquette
and other cities. It is estimated that
four thousand are homeless. Many
deeds of bravery are recorded and
stories of heroic fights of hcme.
steaders to save their possessions are
numerous. The scene of the fire ex.
tend from the Wisconsin boundary up
to Lake Superior.

obliged to have the same discounted.
The amount of this discount amounted
to $3.50. Later Mr.. Lord appeared be-
fore the board and asked that the
board pay him the amount of the dis
count, in order that he might receive
the full amount of the warrant. The
request was granted and MIR. Lord
was given $3.50.
In the Dinnie case a similar action
was taken by the board, ;Dinnie be-
ing given a discount of $40 on one of
his warrants, which he received in
payment on the county hospital con-
tract, the commissioners later refund
ing the amount Of the discount to
Dinnie.
States Attorney MCGEE is of the
opinion that the action Of the COM
missioners, in allowing the discounts,
was illegal, and has started actions
against both the above mentioned
men for the recovery Of the amount
of the discounts.

INDIANS AT FORT BERTH0LD ARE

Fargo Forum: Another insurgent
secret is out.
The destination of at least a part
OF the arm loads of insurgent Iitera-
ture which Tom Hall has been carry
ing to the postofice daily for the last
few months has at last been discov-
cred.
The Indians on the Fort Berthold
reservation are receiving a free cor
respondence course in politics and al
ready they have made rapid progress
In the knowledge which is being dis
seminated from the insurgent head
quarters in this city.
~ Such distinguished redskins as
Stink Face, Dancing Bull and Yellow
Bear know all about the insurgent>
movement, but, strange to relate, the
ponderous statements contained in
the insurgent literature have not mis-
led even the simple sons of the
prairie. Even they have discovered
the 'enigger in the woodpile."
The news of the spreading of the
1nsurgent movement to the wilds of
the Indian reservation was brought to
this city by United States Marshal
Shea, who was in the west on official
business. At Elbowoods Marshal
Shea was afforded every, opportunity
OF learning the habits and customs of
the redskins through the courtesy of
Major Thomas. Among the Indians
whom the federal officer met and
talked%with were Stink Face, Dancing
Bull and Yellow Bear.

KILLED BY LIGHTNING
THREE 500 SECTION MEN
STRUCK AT BALDWIN AS
THEY WERE
GOING TO WoRk-oNE KILLED,
ONE SERIOUSLY INJURED AND
! ..:r,:s.ss OTHER BADLY HURT,

Word was received in the city early
this morning that during a heavy
thunder storm at Baldwin at Z O'Clock
three section men were struck by
lightning as they We're walking down
the track to go to work. One was
killed Instantly, one was seriously in
Ejured and the other was rendered I'M
conscious, but has since regained his
senses and will live, though he is
badly hurt. DR.. Matchan went to
Baldwin in response to telephone
call and it may be that the lives of
two Of the men may be saved. De-
tails are meagre and the. names of the
men could not be obtained.
Coroner Gilbert and DR.. Matchan
returned this afternoon on a special
train from Baldwin bringing with
them the body of Leopold Bopoul, the
man who was killed, and the man who
was badly hurt, but whose name can.
not be Nascertained as he, is non COM
pos mentis. The coroner says, the
Clothing Of Bopoul was torn to
.shreds and his body badly disfgured
and burned. The cause Of his death
being apparent, no inquest was held.
The injured man is at the hospital
and 1t is thought will recover, though
he Is badly hurt. The dead man had
a claim Is miles northwest of Garri-
son and Is supposed to be unmarried.

to Forum reporter this morning, che

l replied in the affirmative and then
asked him what he knew of Mr.. Spal

Wah? replied the Indian. Him

The statement from the simple red.
skin occasioed much merriment at
the expense of Mr. Spalding and it
was then suggested that the tactics
being employed by the insurgents
must be crude, indeed, when they
could be seen through so readily by
one so little versed in the ways of
politicians.
Hardly had the laugh caused by
Stink Faces statement subsidized than
Dancing Bull indicated that he was
anxious to be interviewed along the
