ELECTRICAL FREAK.

SHELDON, N. D., June 2S.-During
an electrical storm of last Monday
morning lightning played a queer freak
of nature at the home of Theodore
Smile, living near the Power bridge.
The bolt entered the chimney Of the
house and passed down into the living
rooms where it tore a huge hole in
the side of the house. 1t then struck
the bed on which Mr.. and Mrs. Smile
were sleeping and from there passed
over to the bed where their four chill
dren were asleep, tearing off one Of
the legs of the bed. 1t visited every
room in the house, damaging the walls
and ceiling to a large extent. A dog
that was in the house at the time was
paralyzed, his injury being so bad that
he had to be shot There were eight
persons in the house and no one was
injured.

TRAGIC TALE $uNFoLDEDs lin THE
FINDING OLA PETRlFIED
BODY. 81.

JAMESTOWN N. d., June 2S.-
Three months ago Frank Andre Of
this city received a letter asking him
to care for a chest until called for by
the owner and enclosing one dollar.
The coffin-shaped box was hauled to
the Andre barn and half forgotten
until Mrs. Andre and son noticed the
screws drawn from the hinges and
found on examination the petrifed
body of a young negress wrapped in
canvas, on which was painted, "Hu-
man petrified body found along the
old Pembina trail on the Snake river
in Marshall county,. Minnesota"
The body weighs about 200 pounds
and is in good state of petritication.
A letter found with it told of the
camping along the Snake river of
Count and Countess De La Jeune in
1865. One of the serants going sud-
denly insane shot and killed Countess
Jeune, also a negress maid who tried
to escape, and the women were buried
in the swamps While the ditch dig
gers were draining the district in
Marshall county, they excavated the
two petrified bodies of the women, one
white and the other negress. The
body of the countess is in a museum
at Chicago. ~ :, ,g ~ "a

NEW SERVICE OVER GREAT
NORTHERN ROAD TO MlNOT
.,,....-. SOON TO OPEN.

MINOT, N. D., June 2S.-Regular
passenger and freight service will be
established over the Great Northern
Ayr line between Fargo and Minot,
September 1st, according to the state
ment Of Great Northern officials at
Fargo recently. ..s @@
The service will be only temporary
in order to allow time for the roadbed
to be "surfaced up" that the weak
spots may be detected. AS soon as the
roadbed is in shape the fast mail trains
and through passenger service will
substitute the temporary service.
Shorter by Sixty Miles.
With the completion of the Great
Northern Ayr line from Fargo to Minot
the mileage between Minneapolis and
Seattle will be reduced 60 miles and
the distance from the Twin Cities to
the coast will then be 1,744 miles. The
Northern Pacific mileage for the run
from Minneapolis to the ocast is now
1897 miles. The decrease in running
time will enable the Great Northern
to compete successfully for the trans
continental mail contracts.

ADJUTANT GENERAL MAY BRING
s@ MILITIA TO DEVILS LAKE
s.y5s,,a.s. , .. CAMP. ...- ,,,s,-ss y.

s BISMARCK, N. D., June 2S.-Adjut-
ant General w. c. Treuman is attend
ing the camp of instruction for Of
ticers of the North Dakota national
guard at Sperry. General Treumans
has been devoting the past two weeks
to completing arrangements for the
annual encampment of the state
troops, which were originally schedul-
ed to participate in the war maneuers
at Camp Bruce E. Mccoy near Sparta.
The veto of the army appropriation
bill by President Taft, on account of
the rider attached that would GUST
General Leonard Wood from the SER
vice, has affected maneuvers of
sguardsmen.
General Treuman on account of the
proximity of the camp date, believes
now that preparations will have to be
made to go to Camp Burke at Devils
Lake. He will discuss the situation
with Colonel Frame and other officers
in the city at present, and the camp
order will be issued in the near future.
The Devils Lake reservation is
greatly improved this year, and a
large new storehouse has been erected
In case the militia goes to camp at
Devils Lake the regiment will also
spend day or two at the state fair at
Fargo. The date for maneuvers was
set for July Is to rs, and this will
probably be adhered to.
