FIRE At DARLINGTON.
Business District Of Darlington is Re.
!
duced to Ashes.

Darlington, N. D., March 81. -
Originating in Hunts pool hall stove,
fire early Friday morning practically
wiped this town off the map, causing
a loss of $3.50, 600. The whole business
section was destroyed, but two brick
stores remaining.
The flames had made good headway
before they were discovered, it being
2:30 O'Clock when general alarm
was sounded.
The fire department., with the assist
ance of the volunteers, had no more
than started to work when the water
apparatus refused to operate, thus
rendering all resistance to the fire
fruitless.
The trouble was due to the failure
of new standpipe to furnish water
and the flames had spread to several
buildings before water could be So
cured from another source.

MAKING SUFFER- ON THE FARM.
Two Prime Essentials to Success In
This Branch Of Dairying.

There are two prime essentials In
making butter on the farm profitable
business. In the first place, one must
have plenty Of pure, cold water; and
then a good enough grade must be
turned out to make and hold custom.
ers. The trouble with nine out Of
every ten farm homes is they are not
equipped to take care of milk and
cream. When one goes into this work
to make money, better put up milk
room, where pure water may be had
from pumping or from spring. Con-
crete floor and walls may now be built
as cheaply as with lumber, and it is a
great deal better than lumber. Don't
stop here. A barrel churn and but
ter maker will be necessary in turning
out uniform product. It looks easy
simply separating the cream, churn-
ing till the butter comes, and sailing
and the trick is done. That is where
so many fail. The cream must be
churned at the right temperature; it
must be neither too sweet nor too
sour. Working and sailing butter to
secure uniform color and flavor is a
very nice art. Don't try to learn to do 1t
infallibly in two or three weeks, but by
all means don't practice on your Gus
toners. That means loss. It Is better
to wait two or three months, until you
are sure Of your quality before you
seek customers. And before you ship,
find out how your commission man or
private customers prefer to have their
butter put up. Sometimes the pack
age means a difference of two or
three cents pound.

A GOOD BARN.
This is the Only Kind That It Pays
to Build.

It pays better to build a good barn
than it does poor barn. 1t will pay
the farmer better to take time to
think over the matter of building
than it will to rush in and build a
barn that will become rickety in 20
years. Time slips away rapidly, and
the poorly built barn deteriorates
rapidly. If it is so built that i. I'LL
have life of not more than 20 years,
then five per cent. must be charged
off as depreciation each year, and this
is equivalent to an interest of that
amount, which has to be added to the
interest on the original investment.
This will sometimes make a total of
more than ten per cent, which is too
much money for man to pay out an.
rually on any structure. Therefore,
says Farmers Review, the part of wis.
dom is to build for permanently. Ma
terials, plans and labor should be such
that the barn will have life of from
so to 100 years.. In that case the an
nual charge for depreciation will be
less than two per cent. The poorly
built barn will soon take on an ap.
pearance that will detract from the
value of the farm, in case the farm
has to be sold. Z

THE Black HAND
IN minnesota.
SENATOR CALHOUN OF MINNIE.
APoLls RECEIVES THREAT
ENlNG LETTER,
Result Of the Announcement to Put
the Lid on Emma Goldman If She
Appears. Orders HIM to Keep
Quiet.

Minneapolis, March S3.-Following
his announced intention of resorting
to injunction if possible to prevent
the public appearance of Emma Gold
man, noted anarchist lecturer, in
Minneapolis, and fired to rancorous
resentment by scathing utterances
regarding the sect some one has sent
Senator John F. Calhoun letter
threatening his life. The letter reads:
Beware, beware, Take warning!
Any more cheap utterances from you
and ZIP you go to-"
The letter was unsigned, but at the
top of the sheet was scrawled the
crude outline of q skull and cross
bones. At the bottom of the page a
hand, drawn with black ink, designat-
ed the emblem of the Black Hand.
The letter was not sent through the
mail, but was delivered to the CLERK
of the West hotel, where the senator
and his family are living, by mess
enger Of the A. d. T. 1t was received
first by Mrs. Calhoun, who read it
and suffered a nervous shock from the
threat against her husband.
Senator Calhoun has placed the let
ter in the hands of detectives who
are seeking to ferret out the author
of it, but nothing has been yet
learned. The clerks of the A. D. r.
office, where the note was sent in for
delivery, have no recollection Of the
sender.
Senator Calhoun feels little fear
that the threat contained in the letter
will be carried out, but to the con-
trary reiterates his denunciation Of
anarchists.

IN CONGRESS-.

Without division, the senate passed
the ship subsidy bill. The measure
provides that 16-knot vessels plying
between this country and South Amer
lea, the Philippines, Australia, China
and Japan shall receive four dollars a
mile, which was the amount awarded
only to vessels of 20 knots by the act
of 1891.
More criticism of President Roose-
welt was INDUCED in in the house Of
representatives, when he was roundly
denounced by Mr.. Hardwick of
Georgia for failing to send to congress
all information regarding corporations
which had come into his possession.
The president, however, found a ready
and vigorous defender in Mr.. Mann of
Illinois, who asserted that the presi-
dent had acted with the utmost good
faith in sending to congress all the in
formation that had come to him.
The discussion arose over resolu-
ton by Mr.. Hardwick to require the
president to supply the house with all
data so far obtained by the bureau of
corporations. The resolution was
tabled 148 to 115.
The Notifications appropriation bill
was taken up and in the course of de-
bate upon it, Mr.. Bartlett of Georgia
refuted the claims of the Republicans
to the credit for authorship of the rail-
road rate or Sherman antitrust laws.
Senator La toilette of Wisconsin re-
sumed his speech against the Aldrich
currency bill and declared that he had
received additional information which
proved he was correct in stating that
the recent financial stringency was
started by great bankers and f1nan-
ciers. Senators Gore and Bailey criti-
cised the president for writing con-
gratulatory letters to the f1nanciers
after the panic.

will be declared constitutional by the
