Grand Forks Merchant Performs Many
Queer Stunts.
Charged with insanity, C. A. Rhein-
hart, proprietor Of a large hardware
store and a pioneer resident Of
Grand Forks, wa arrested last week,
the arrest of Rheinhart, following a
series of startling stunts. Jealous of
his wife. he had frequently caused
her to fear for her life within the
past six weeks, and in the Office of
an attorney he made the threat that
either himself or his wife should die
before leaving there. He assaulted
a policeman, and made desperate eff.
forts to reach his wife to choke her.
Fearing that her husband would kill
her, Mrs. Rheinhart sought protection
at the county Jail, where she remained
one night with Sheriff Hanson and
family. Next day Rheinhart sold the
stock in his hardware store to one Of
his sons, executing a bill of sale, for
the same, and drew $4,000 from one
Of the banks. He flashed money
around town and handled it as one
demented. He resigned as a director
of the company owning the Empire
theater.

EFFECTS OF THE STRIKE.

soilermaker5 Strike Causes Great
Delay In Train servlee-Enaines In
Very Bad Shape.
A great many people are making
complaints about the trains on the
Northern Pacific railroad being de.
layed, and attribute the cause to the
condition Of the engines. which they
say are in very bad shape, as a re.
suit Of the boilermakers' strike. This
is. however, denied by the officials Of
the road, and they attribute the cause
to the congestion of freight in the
eastern part Of the state.
Travelling men who have a good
chance Of studying the cause of the
delays say that the engines are in
miserable condition, and that they are
continually falling down, and that II
is almost impossible to make them
steam. The hotel clerks in the city
say that they hear many complaints
about the delayed trains which are
usually attributed to the unrepaired
conditions Of the engines. caused by
the lack of sufficient boilermakers.
Nearly all the passenger and freight
trains are delayed every day and ar
rive in Fargo all the way from few
minutes to several hours late.

the day Of his departure, husband
and wife subsisting exclusively the
whole time on the viscount's earnings
as an amateur paitner. There was no
stipulation as to time.
The pair have just reached Paris on
