viii Vote At Once. %.
The union men are to take refer.
endum vote at once as to whether the
modified terms for the new wage
agreement will be accepted, and there
is a general feeling that the result of
+, the ballot will be to return to work.
Upon the outcome Of the voting in
the central competitive fiela," CON-
promising Pennsylvania, Ohio, lndi-
ana and Illinois, depends aslo the
basis for the new wage scales in 9TH
er sections Of the country as the pres
ent agreements do not expire until
May 1, or. later. The southern and
Southwestern mines, and compare
lively few Rocky Mountain states, are
affected by this state of affairs.
Million Men Watching Outcome.
The West Virginia and Kentucky
bituminous fields will not be greatly
affected unless the present suspen-
sion becomes a strike. Approximate
ly 100000 men are directly affected
today, and some 100000 more, scat
tered throughout the coal districts OF
the country, are watching the outcome !

It is probable that it will be at |

danger existing from floods when the

Floods at Msndan.
The water in the Heart river at

Excitement at Yankton.
While the Bismarck station Of the
weather bureau does not receive word
of conditions on the Missouri south of
the capital, word has reached Section
Director Roberts that the ice has gone
out at Yankton and the greatest e.

are inundating the lowlands and have
driven many people from their homes.
Great damage is reported although

hiah Mater At Mott.

MOTT, April 1.-The city of Mott
has been all astir the past two days
in anticipation as to the amount Of
damage which may occur as a result
of the high water. The ice in the Cam
nonball has begun to move and. It is
a matter OF conjecture whether or not
the big steel construction which spans
the Cannonball river at this point will
withstand the heavy strain of the
floating icebergs and the pressure of
high water.
The Milwaukee people are expect
ing much damage and Inconvenience
with their bridges Two of them have
gone out west Of Mott and the third
has to be altered SO as to allow the
ice to continue its course. No trains
are running west of Mott. and prob
ably traffic west on the Milwaukee
will be tied for week or so. The city
Is dynamiting the ice gorges east of
Mott which will probably save the
Mott bridge and other structures To-
Gated on the river bottoms.

face. Use hot infusions, of red pep
per, or ginger or mustard plaster on
the spine, extremities and on the
stomach.
Convalescence is usually slow, and
the patient is much more liable to re-
peated attacks than before. A very
slight attack may be like a fainting
tit. Sprinkle water on the face, and
apply smelling salts to nostrils, then
place in cool, shady place for a
few hours.
Sour Stomach, Heartburn-Due to
acidity from sour foods, or the acid
ity caused by fermentation of foods
an excellent remedy is tablet COM
posed Of charcoal, pepsin, ginger and
magmesia, and a half cup Of wat
er. Do not eat candy, cakes, etc.,
tor time at least.
Dysentery (acute stage)-Indicat-
ed remedies, powdered ipecac, twen-
ty grains in four ounces of faxseed
tea. Keep patient quiet in bed. Place
hot applications to abdomen and feet.
After acute stage injections Of thin
boiled starch are beneficial.
Summer Food-In hot weather you
will find in rice cooked in various
ways a most satisfactory article Of
diet. It is an excellent substitute for
the heavy meats often INDUCED in.
1T is nourishing, and particularly
healthful. Get used to the eating of
rice in some Of it's very palatable
forms Of cookery. Do not be afraid
that it will not sustain you, for it
will, and it will be particularly desir-
able in hot weather, as it does not tax
the digestive organs. Remember that
in China over 40,000,00O people sub
sist chiefly on rice. A rice pudding
with raisins is a good dish, which is
sufficient in itself to constitute a
meal.
Keep bottle Of peroxide of HYDRO
gen handy to prevent infection from
the numberless causes present in the
summer time, for cuts, wounds,
scratches, sores, stings Of insects,
rusty nails, or anything which the
skin is abraded or the flesh punctur-
ed, allowing germs to infect the
wound.

FARM HAND FATALLY
BURNED In BARN FIRE
Sunday Night, July %, Geo. Ammer-
mann's Barn Burned With
Contents.

Fire completely destroyed thelarge
barn of Geo. Ammermanm in town of
Rheiderland, last Sunday about mid
night, while the family were in bed.
The fire was not noticed until it had
made such Roadway that it was i'm
possible to save anything. When Mr..
Ammermann discovered the fire he
rushed into the barn to loosen the
six horses that were in the fire and
he succeeded in cutting all Of them
loose and he led three outside but he
was unable to keep the animals from
going back. The horses Immediately
returned into the burning building
and all six horses were burned to
death. All the harnesses, one al
most new top buggy, and two drills
were also destroyed, with about Is
ton of new hay. There was a stran-
ger working for Mr.. Ammermann at
the time and he slept in the barn and
was seriously burned. The stranger
was unable to find his way out on
account Of all the smoke and when
the barn door was opened he was
found in an almost unconscious state.
He was hurried to Montevideo after
DR.. Dawson had dressed the injuries.
The origin of the fire is unknown.
Some think that the stranger may
have been smoking and failed to emp
ty his pipe before going to bed. 9th
ers claim that it originated from the
new mown hay that was in the barn.
The barn was insured in the Farm
ers' Fire Insurance Co.
LATER: The stranger who was
fatally burned in the fire of Geo.
Ammermann's barn last Monday died
in the Montevideo hospital last Tues
day. His name was Oliver Hatfield
and he was about So years old. He
was married and has family Of five
children living in Omaha. Before his
death he expressed a desire to thank
all those who aided him during his
last moments.-Clara City Herald.

Don't Snub.

Don't snub a boy because he wears
shabby clothes. When Edison, the
inventor Of the telephone, first en-
tered Boston he wore a pair Of linen
breaches in the depths of winter
Don't snub a boy because his house
is plain. Lincoln's early home was in
a log cabin. Don't snub a boy be-
cause of the ignorance Of his par
ents. Shakespeare was the son Of a
man who was not able to write his
own name. Don't snub a boy because
he chooses a humble trade. The au-
thor Of "Pilgrim's Progress" was a
tinker. Don't snub a boy because of
physical disability. Milton was blind
Don't snub boy because of dullness
in his lessons. Hogarth, the celebrat-
ed painter and engraver, was a stu
pid boy at his books. Don't snuh
anybody, not only because some day
he may outstrip you in the race of
life, but because it is neither kind
nor right nor Christianlike.-Un-
known Exchange.

1.-THE Next Governor"

1t is an open secret that demo-
Gratis from practically every county
in the state have been importuning
Mr.. Ringdahl for weeks past to ac-
cept the party leadership in the COM
ing campaign. He has steadfastly,
almost stubbornly, declined to accede
to their wishes, but the pressure has
recently become so great that he felt
that he was not justified in longer
refusing the use Of his name.
Mr.. Ringdahl belongs to the old
farmers alliance school Of politics,
Of which the late S. NJ. Owen was a
leader back in the nineties. He stood
for things at that time which Bryan
and men Of that stamp have since
nationalized and which are known to
the country as progressive. He serv-
ed in the state senate in 1857 and
gained a record as a consistent ad-
vocate Of reform principles which
made him conspicuous in the politics
of the state since that time. Gov.
John Lind recognized his ability by
appointing him a member Of the state
board Of railway and warehouse
commissioners. In this position with
the assistance Of Hon. T. J. Knox,
he demonstrated that the members of
that body were something besides fig
ure heads, doing the bidding Of the
corporations. So Objectionable did
he and Mr.. Knox become to the rail-
roads the republicans, taking advan-
tage Of their big majority, legislated
them out of office and transferred
the selection of their successors to a
republican state convention, with re-
suits very gratifying to everybody
but the people.
Governor johnson still further
honored Mr.. Ringdahl by appointing
him on the board Of control. How
we'll and faithful he has performed
the labors and assumed the respon-
sibilities Of that position is known
and recognized by men Of all parties
The state has need Of men Of Pet.
er M. RingdahPs stamp. The Sentin-
ell believes he will be the next gov.
ernor.-Fairmont Sentin |.

The exhibition Of Dazzle Patch, tho

Mr.. Savage has contracted to have
Dazzle give half mile exhibition, but
If the colts condition warrants it and
weather and track are suitable his
owner has stated that he would let

NEW DEPOT WILL BE
BUILT At ATWATER
Atwater Village is Rejoicing Over
improvements Now Put Under
Way by the Great Northern.

T he Atwater Republican-Press
contains definite information regard
ing the improvements being planned
there by the Great Northern. 1t says: :
'The Interstate elevator at Third
street is slated for removal on the
company's blue prints, but as yet it
had mot been definitely settled where
to. Change in the location of the
loading platform at the depot. was
also considered and this will prob
ably be done. The "house" track on
the south side of the depot will be
moved about forty feet further south
necessitating the filling in of large
amount Of dirt, fact which suggest
ed to the committee the propriety of
also asking for dirt, to fill up on the
north side even with the street with
a view Of constructing a park. With
the Interstate elevator removed we
would get park over a block in
length, something that we ought to
have and that would be a mutual
benefit to the village and the rail-
road.
"The old depot has been here over
forty years and is entitled to a per-
manent rest.
''The first filing Of dirt for the re-
moval Of the south SIDE track was
done Monday by large crew Of lab
orers, who arrived on the morning
train.
"On Wednesday afternoon the sig
nal Inspector for the Great North
ern, Mr.. H. E. Brasheres, came up
from st. Paul and met with members
Of the Commercial Club. His visit
was for the purpose cf interviewing
them in regard to the proposed cross
ing alarm system. He submitted the
drawn plans for installing automatic
street crossing bells, which would
give an alarm of approaching trains
at a distance of half a mile away.
The system would be constructed as
to also include an Illuminated sign
bearing the word "danger," thus
making the alarm both an audible and
visual one. 1t was the opinion of
those who saw the plans for this
alarm system that it would be
most satisfactory one for Atwater
and we can look for the installation
Of it at an early date"
