Every thoughtful person has at some
time or other faced the question of a
possible emancipation from thralldom
to the appetites Of the physical nature.
Is there not a power above and be-
yond man to help him amid the beset-
ments of his lower nature? The Chris
tian religion teaches that there is. The
mysteriously impaired Spirit of Jesus
is given to man to help him to be more
than man. It is 'by the Spirit that
we are to put to death the doings of
the body. Or as that other reasoning
word summarizes even this truth,
where the Spirit of the Lord is, there
Is liberty"

WATER At MANDAN :-:.....;:
DID LITTLE. DAMAGE
FIRST REPORTS HAVE PROVED
TO BE ERRoNE0us-DYkEs Z
f., SAVED CITY.
City Was and 10 Without Lights and
Many Strangers Within Her Gates
Ferry Man Has Good Thing.

The reports received from Mandan
Monday to the effect. that the busi-
ness part of the city was inundated,
have proven to be incorrect. It ap-
pears that the dykes built for the
very purpose of protecting the city,
"seen their duty and done it we'll.
There were a number OF leaks during
the time the water has been high, but
the people carried sand bags and 9TH
er filler and soon stopped the leaks.
Where damage has been done in the
business section, was from back wat:
er through sewers, and this will be
only a small item.
The city is in darkness on account
Of the fact that the electric curren
is secured from Bismarck and the
wires have been down since the
flood started. It was said by some
who came over Tuesday that there
was not all the food in Mandan that
could be disposed OF, but there Is ne
suffering, and trains from the west
will begin to- bring supplies today
f. Every passing track for fifty miles
from Mandan is full OF cars as al
freight trains have been abandoned
and their crews run into Mandan
The yards there are full of trains and
there will be congestion of traffic
there for some time to come as II
will be a number of days after the
road is opened before things will be
normal again. y:
The party who is running the ferry
between Mandan and the Mp. bridge
is making barrels OF, money transport
ing passengers for IS a head. 1t is
stated that he was unable to care fol
all the traffic that was offered HIN
Tuesday. Travelling men and others
who were marooned in Mandan were
willing to pay almost any price to re-
sumo their journey.
A story is told of one party in the
vicinity Of Mandan, whose home was
surrounded by water and who, when
the water came to the second story
had no means of escape save badly
used up row boat, finally reached q
place Of safety after nearly losing
their lives by being tipped out.
There was no water in any Of the
buildings in Mandan aside from those
on the lowlands where high water al
ways brings discomfort, but those peo'
pie have built their houses for the
very purpose of fighting these con-
ditions and there was no more serious
loss in Mandan than there was at
this point.
Taken all in all the first reports
from Mandan were all to the wrong
and it Is doubtful that aside from the
loss Of the company property, there
has been any more loss than in Bis
marck. e.. 49,. &

IT'S YOUR KIDNEYS
DON'T MISTAKE THE CAUSE or
YOUR TROUBLES.


Many people never suspect their
kidneys. If suffering from a lame
weak or aching back they think that
it is only muscular weakness; when
urinary trouble sets in they think it
will soon correct itself. And so it is
with all other symptoms Of kidney
disorders. That is just where the
danger lies. You must cure these
troubles or they may lead to diabetes
or Bright's disease. The best remedy
to use is Doan's Kidney Pills. It cures
ali ills which are caused by weak or
diseased kidneys. Residents Of this
vicinity are constantly testifying to
permanent cures.
Fred Koch, 214 South Fifth Avenue,
Jamestown, N. D., says: "F'or the past

AN EXCITING time
Ed. J. BERRY GETS MIXED WITH
FLOOD AND HAS SERIOUS
LOSSES. =.
Loss Of Stock Was Particularly Heavy
Hotel Milk Supply Was Swept
Down tho River.

Ed. J. Berry, proprietor Of the
Hotel Jordan at Glendive and for
merly a we'll known resident of Bis
marck and Dickinson suffered a
heavy loss in the high water from the
Yellowstone river some days ago.
Berry had a fine stock farm near
Glendive, and the rising waters sur
rounded it, drowning number Of
head of stock and destroying much
valuable property. The Glendive Re.
view says:
Along about the middle of the az
ternoon an alarm came from E. J.
Berry's Riverside" ranch, where the
overflow Of the water, due to big
gorge below the place, had left four
persons facing death where they had
sought refuge in the barn.
A rescue party was quickly formed
and superintendent B. o. Johnson
ordered out special on which were
loaded boats and ropes. A large
number Of volunteers were on hand,
and the train pulled to the place of
danger none too soon.
When the rescuers arrived, the
four persons, first driven from the
house when that building began to
cave in, had been forced to seek the
highest possible place In the hay
NOW, the water having reached the
second floor of the barn. They did
not know at what moment the build
ing would be carried away.
Mr.. Berry's loss of stock was par
ticularly heavy. When the water be-
gan to rise, the boy on the place at
tempted to drive the cattle and
horses to higher ground. But the
water rose with amazing rapidly,
and he finally had all he could do to
save himself.
Thirty-one head of cattle, mostly
mich cows used for supplying the
jordan hotel with milk and cream,
and consequently valuable stock,
were swept down the icy torrent and
destroyed. Likewise sixty-seven
head of hogs (and hogs are mighty
valuable just at this time) together
with number of head of horses
were destroyed. Mr.. Berry's loss
from this source alone, will run into
the thousands of dollars.
In addition, his irrigation pump
ing plant was practically ruined, and
it is impossible to estimate at this
time the damage to buildings, fences
and to the land itself, for the great
river was practically turned from its
course, hundreds of yards to the
south, seeking for itself new chan
mel in place Of the one blockaded by
tons and tons of ice. It was more
than fortunate that the gorge broke
as soon as it did.
