SPECIAL TRAIN CHARTERED
WHEN BURKE THREW OUT PETI.

LEADERS HAS STRENUOUS TIME

Bismarck, N D., May 1O.-When
Governor Burke announced yesterday
afternoon that all the petitions, in
the county seat contest between Fort
Yates and selfridge for the seat Of
government for the new county of
Sioux In southern Morton county and
on the Standing Rock reservation,
would be called off and the delega-
tions given until May 16 to present
new petitions, there was rush to get
back to the reservation on the part
of 100 or more Indians here in the In
terests Of their respective towns.
The Fort Yates contingent hired a
private train to take them to Mandan
where they had engaged all the availa-
BILE automobiles to take them to the
reservation.
AS the special train was leaving the
city, Chas. A. Patterson, who is boost
ing for Selfridge was found to be a
passenger and the train was stopped
and when Patterson refused to alight
Captain Martineson OF the police force
was called and elected the man. Pat
terson later secured an automobile
and attempted to cross the railroad
bridge but the tender refused to al
low him to do so.
Offers Of any amount of money failed
to get passage across the river on
any Of the half dozen freight boats
that were there and Patterson had to
remain in Bismarck while his rivals,
the Fort Yates delegation were on
their way to the reservation to secure
a new petition.
Patterson got across the river at
9:35 last night.

POISONED COFFEE
AT MINNESOTA
SOLDIERS HOME

St Paul, Mimi, May 10.--Arsenic
was in the coffee served to and drank
by DR.. and Mrs. j. r. Davis, DR.. Heron
and two Others when they dined in
the cottage Of the chief surgeon Of the
soldiers home April 2S, according to
a report submitted to the board of
trustees today at its meeting at the
home.
1t is believed that before the board
adjourns, startling disclosures will be
made, since it has been intimated that
a special investigating committee has
cognizance of how and by whom the
deadly poison was put into the cof-
fee.
C. f. Macdonald Of ST. Cloud and Al.
L. Sackett Of St. Peter, members OF
the committee, have reported to the
board that the affair is most serious,
and that the preliminary investigation
warrants a searching inquiry.

The second day of the big medical
convention has proven just as success
ful as the first and the excellent pa
pers read this morning at the meeting
drew forth much discussion. DR. Harry
Riches illustrated address was the
feature of the session and proved one
OF exceptional interest,
While there were a few slight al
terations made In the programme,
everything went off about as had been
planned. There was considerably
more discussion this morning, how
ever, than at any of the sessions yes
terday. The doctors felt better ac-
quainted with each other and more
informal and homelike feeling seemed
to prevail today, which made the dis.
cussion easier.
At an early hour President Healy
called the meeting to order in the as
sembly room at the commercial club
and nearly every delegate was in his
place.
The first paper Of the day was by
DR. r. e. Weible Of Fargo, whose
subject was, Clinical Cases. which
was handled with the assistance Of
DR.. G. NJ Callander. This feature OF
the mornings session was one that
was highly instructive and brought
forth much comment from the dele
gates.
DR., Harry Richie OF st. Paul was
the next on the programme with his
able paper on. Indications for the RE-
moval OF the Call Bladder. This was
given with illustrations and was one
of the red letter attractions of the
convention.
DIR. Richie made his subject so enter
tanning and OF such vital interest that
when he was finished, nearly every
delegate attending the convention took
part lii the animated discussion that
followed. 1t was topic that awakf
ened general interest and while he was
reading his paper the room was crowd
ed with many OF the local physi-
clans who cannot spare the time to
attend all the sessions of the conven-
ton.
The other subjects OF the morning
on the programme were. Tubal Preg~

PAVILION DESTROYED.
Street Car CompanY's Pleasure Resort
Is Burned Sunday Morning.

Fire was discovered in the Wausau
Street Railroad Co.'s pavilion at
Rothschild Sunday morning at about
nine O'Clock, and in a few minutes
the whole structure was one mass of
flames. Much of the material used in
its construction was of highly COM
bustible nature, being tamrack and
spruce, which was filled with pitch.
When the fire was discovered it was
plainly evident that there was abSo-
lutely no hope of saving the building,
even if fire fighting apparatus had
been at hand. The Wausau tiremen
were not even summoned. 1t was not
long after the fire started before the
roof fell in, and after making spec
tacular blaze for short time the
structure was reduced to a mass of
Goals. All that now stands is the
stone rustic chimney and the concrete
piers.
The fire is supposed to have origi-
mated from electric wires on the east
side of the building near the electric
piano.
The first work on this building was
started March "A, 1908, and the build
ing was completed during the summer

design throughout, the walls being
constructed of tamrack unpeeled poles
stood on end. The roof was supported
by crotched poles selected for their
symmetry, and large fireplace and
chimney built of undressed stone
added to the rustic scheme. The
building was so arranged that the en-
closure on the south and west sides
could be taken out in warm weather,
and put back again in the cold months.
The floor was set on series of
springs, it being the only building in
Wisconsin so equipped. The springs
gave the floor a swaying motion when
dancers or roller skaters were on the
floor. The building also had dining
room d kitchen. The total cost of
the structure was about $4,000, but
there has since been added 81 200
electric music box, silverware, roller
skates, electrical appliances for the
kitchen and other apparatus. The
company carried a total of SO, $50 in
surance, in the local agencies of e.
G. Kretlow, the V. A. Anderson In
vestment Co. and Zimmerman &
Rowley.
Frank Oswald, who had charge of
the table service and reITesnmenJ
booth, lost a considerable amount Of
clothing, and there was an amount of
money in several cash drawers which
could not be removed. G. S. Cone,
whose orchestra played there Sunday
afternoons, lost some musical instru-
mentS.
The board of directors of the COM
pany will meet as soon as Neal Brown
returns home, and will come 70 a de-
cision regarding rebuilding. Several
directors whom we have seen have
expressed themselves as in favor OF
rebuilding at once. As this pleasure
resort was source of large income
for the street railroad company there
is hardly any doubt about the COM
pany erecting another building. But
il is most likely that the plans Will
be changed, as well as the material
thae goes into it. No doubt concrete
or some other more substantial maSer-
tial will be used.
