FIGHTING WHITE PLAGUE.
Wells County o1seiaIs Active to Pre-.
vent Spread Of the Disease.

Fessenden-A campaign against
tuberculosis in Wells county, as a
part of a statewide movement, Is
now In progress. Developments in
this county the past few months have
shown that there are from thirty
five to fifty families directly or in
directly affected by the disease and
this fact. has resulted in stringent
action upon the part of the county
board of health.
DR.. Per Oyon, county physician, is
at the head of the campaign and the
work is being done along educational
lines. 1t has arranged for a series
of lectures through the county with
view to arousing the people.
Wells county's fight against tuber.
culosis will be relentless said DIR.
Oyon. ''The county health author
tiles are not in position to do as much
work as they would like to do, but
every effort will be made to check
the progress of the disease. We pro-
pose raising fund of from $1,000
to $1,000, which will be large enough
to carry on the work the next six
years, and by that time we hope to
have the situation well in hand. The
present generation cannot afford to
hand down so great curse as tuper-
culosis, and our fight will be to pre-
bent this"

Stated Mildly, the Situation at CAPT
tai Was Very, Very Wet

Bismarck-If 'cloudburst' is ever
a proper title to apply to a tremen-
duous downfall of rain, then a cloud
burst was the thing that visited Bis
marck the other might. In two
hours of the night and early morn
Ing there was a precipitation of $50
inches-a fact which can be verified,
as We have the weather instruments
here to show. What the sun revealed
as morning dawned was vast waste
of water and debris along Main
street from Sixth nearly to Third and
from Broadway to Main in this same
territory the aspect was that of a
'Wave-washed beach after a ship
wreck.
From Broadway to the railroad
tracks on the south, was a sea of
water, which rose until it swept over
the walks and into Easements. Here
the greatest damage was done, as
stocks of goods that were stored be-
meath business places were set afloat
In few minutes. The water came
with rush. as was proven by the
dlHculty with which the telegraph OPP
orator in the Western Union offices
escaped from the basement, once the
water started to enter.
The rainfall began between 10 and
u O'Clock and the downpour was a
torrent for nearly two hours. The
record Of nearly four inches of rain
fall in less than two hours will pro-
badly stand for some time.
The storm appears to have been To-
cal over this area. There was very
heavy rainfall I'M Mandan, but it is
not believed it was as heavy as at
this place.
The latest estimates of damage in
Bismarck place the loss to stocks and
buildings at about $4,000.

From the story told Chief Gabe
Grant this morning by eye witnesses,
Mcclure was seized by three stick

money stolen from another man. Well
aware of what they were doing, they
tossed him over the rail of the bridge
to light with thud on the ground
sixteen feet below.
John Morgan, resident of Front
street near the south bridge saw the
affair. He rushed to the scene and
with help of others. held one of the
three men. who gave his name as
Joseph Henry at the police station.
According to Morgan this occurred
shortly after midnight.
Officers are exertlng every effort
to get the other two men, whose de-

third national encampment of the
Grand Army of the Republic ended
with q fireworks display on Ensign

By the close vote of 307 to 293 At.
lantic City was chosen over st. Louis
as the place for the next encampment,
after spirited fight.
Atlantic City was placed in nomina
ton by Adjutant General Burrows,
New Jersey, and st. Louis was named
by former Commander-in-chief Chas.
Burton, Missouri. First one city was
in the lead and then the other.
With New York to be heard from the
vote stood 253 to 293 in favor of st.
Louis. When New York was called
the commander of that department
announced the vote as 81 for Atlantic
City and one for st. Louis. This gave
the seacoast city lead that could not
be overcome. The vote showed the
East arrayed against the Middle West
with the Far West and South more or
less divided.

ed probably the finest electrical dis
play during recent storm here that
1t is often the good fortune Of an OBJ
server to see.
He spent the night in the pilot
house Of one Of the Missouri river
steamers, and in close proximity to
the big Northern Pacific bridge across
the Missouri. The electrical storm,
which was the most brilliant and Sc
we're ever witnessed in this section,
developed and hung over the bridge
Tor an hour or so, and the steel of
the rails an the bridge furnished the
medium for display of fireworks
surprising anything ever attempted
by ni:.n.
There were all descriptions OF
lightning sputtering from the steel
of the bridge. Great sheets of col
or enveloped the whole structure at
times, lightning the entire bridge
with a lurld glare, and then streaks
of red and white light followed the
rails from one end of the bridge to
the other, sparkled from the beams
of the upperworks and Illuminated
the surrounding air, covering the
bridge with a sort of halo. Zigzag
flashes outlined the upper works
against the heavy sky, and forked
lightning played up and down and
back and forth until the whole struc-
ture sparkled like hugh pinwheel.
The air in the vicinity seemed to
be literally surcharged with electrical
current and the metal of the bridge
made a fine medium of it's touching
off. For over an hour Captain Belk
watched the display, which he says
was the finest he has seen in his
thirty years experience ON the river.
The bridge is set high over the
water and is clearly outlined against
the sky, and with the dark night and
the vivid electrical discharges made
a sight such as is seldom witnessed.
No damage was done to the bridge
the lightning seeming merely to
dance along the rails and steel beams
and dart off into the air in thousands
of Shapes and forms.
