nominee first, last and all the time
Early in the afternoon it became
apparent that such a caucus could
not be held successfully at that time.
Some Of the Kent members thought
il would be better TO walt for day,
or possibly until Monday, before
holding such a caucus. Representa-
tive Reynolds, of Smyrna. and one
or two OF the other Kent members
were not prepared to enter bind
ing caucus of Kent members II was
said that Representative Reynolds
the day before was gotten into the
Kent county conference only after
much difficulty by his colleagues
Mr.. Reyonlds lives in Smyrna, the
home town Of former Congressman
Handy, who is a Senatorial candi-
date, but he is reported TO be in favor
Of Salisbury for Senator, and for
that reason, it is said, he was chary
about binding himself to vote for a
Kent county nominee for Senator
continuously.
Some of the anti-Saulsbury leaders
say that failure Of Kent county
member or members to support a
Kent county Democrat for United
States Senator under the circum-
stances weuld end the political career
Of the baking Assemblymen. They
argue that Kent county has twelve
out Of the twenty-nine Democratic
members of the Legislature, and that
/ if Il had not been for the great show
/ ing Of Kent county at the recent
/ election the Legislature would have
been captured by the Republicans.
! Aside from that they point out that
New Castle county has but seven
Democratic members of the Legisla-
/ ture out OF a total representation of
twenty-five members from that coun-
~. and because of the cOunty's poor
showing in the recent election it
should forfeit its claim to the Sen
atorship to Kent county or to Sussex.
Not So Many Here.
The delegations heralded to de-
scend upon Dover yesterday after
noon to lay siege upon some of the
I Democratic members favorable to
Willard Salisbury for Senator, in an
effort to capture them for some other
Senatorial candidate, did not make
the eorraidable showing that some
had expected James H. Hughes,
chief of the ant-Saulsbury forces,
had said a day or so before that he
knew of no demonstration planned
for Thursday, Notwithstanding re-
ports of such a gathering that had
come from some other anti-Saulsbury
men.
Some of the anti-Saulsbury men
were here yesterday afternoon, how

last night about S.45 o'clock, when
every light in the hotel went out
owing to the blowing of a fuse. No
excitement was caused. however az
the visitors knew what had happened
and stood still, while the orchestra
played until the lights were restored.
The hotel was in darkness only two or
three minutes and was we'll worth
while, as a picturesque view Of thu

Souvenir Hunters.
In the last two days souvenir hunt
ers have been decending on the hotel
in little groops and have made away
with large number of pieces of
table ware. glasses. ornaments, fine
pieces of linen work, in fact every
thing that they could lay their hands
/ on. The loss has amounted Ia
several hundred dollars and the hotel
managers will pay particular atten-
tion to see that no more property is
removed from the hotel The loss OF
one spoon or one glass, of coure does
not amount to much, but when sever
al hundred of these articles arc taken
the loss amounts to considerable.
Another thing that was noticeable
last night and the night before was
the way some people abused Inc

The LOCAL MISSION
Nice Notice From Edinburg in Regard
to the Glad Tidings Will Be
Read With Interest Here.

The fame of the Glad Tidings mis-
sion, as a charitable institution has
been going out over the state and the
good that it has done and is doing
has been talked about in several quar-
tiers, as the following from The Edin-
burg Tribune will show:
I'm Fargo there is a charitable in
stitution known as the Glad Tidings
mission. 1t is under the supervision
of a clergyman, who is, the writer be-
lieves, the founder of it. One of the
monthly reports of the superintendent
has recently come to u notice. The
report is a most eloquent proof of what
a world of good the church can do in
dispensing charity. We firmly believe
that this mission has fed more hungery
people, clothed more people, given
medical aid, secured employment, both
permanent and temporary. for more
people, in short, given aid where aid
was needed, to more people than all
the rest of the churches in the state
combined. 1t is all very well to ex-
pound from the pulpit the theory of
the thirty-ffth and thirty-sixth verses
of the twenty-flfth chapter of st.
Mathew, but how many churches carry
that theory into practice?"

was down early this morning to bid
welcome to the new street car that
has been ordered for the Dilworth line,
which arrived in the night and which
was hauled about 7 o'clock this morn
ing out to the barns.
The new car is forty-tWo feet long
which is about twelve feet longer than
the cars that are used on h system
at the present time and it is of thirty
horse power and will be able to haul a
much larger number of people than
the old cars. The new a is of the
same color hat is now used on the
line and presents a handsome appear
ance. It was ordered some time ago,
but could not be "had for quite a
while. The new a will be placed in
commission or the Dilworth line with
in a few days and it is expected that
it will accommodate the people to a
greater extent han at present. Mr..
Brown is very much pleased with the
new car.

The Theatres
The First of the Week.

Very brilliant is the bill that Mama
ger Fowler has selected for the first
half of the present week and the
audiences yesterday and last week
showed their pleasure by loud and
generous applause. 1t is a neat bill
and one thai is bound to please. The
last number on the programme is the
headliner, Tom Eck's Racing Girls,
who do a great bicycle act and they
do it we'll, and there are four in the
company. They use some very intri-
cate and realistic scenery for the act
that always causes wonder and their
work is gilt edged and astonishing.
There is also Louise Dore in her
single. turn act which went exceed
ingly well, for she is a clever little
coincidence and she did her few minu-
tes on the stage In a realistic man
ner that was pleasing. Bob and Alice
Langley in their neat singing and
dancing turn have a pleasing act that
went exceedingly well and they Were
given many a hand which they and the
people enjoyed.
The talking pictures were true to
life and the words that came from the
mouths of the performers were all
that could be desired. Then there was
the great Orpheumscope moving pic
lures that also brought out much APP
plause and all shows open and close
with the celebrated Coscio orchestra,
making a fine bill.

ID. Fl. Tuttle was a. business visi-
tor to the city yesterday, coming here
from the twin cities. He appeared be-
fore the city commissioners and is
after a franchise for the North Ameri-
can Telegraph and Telephone
co. to use the lines Of the
Independent Co. in entering Fargo
from the twin cities and elsewhere to
carry on a regular telephone bust
ness.
1t is the purpose of the new com
pany to occupy the lines Of the indie
pendent n erect such other lines
as may be necessary for the service
In this city. Mr.. Tuttle is president
OF the North American and is one of
the best known men in the telephone
business and proposes to give this
city a good service if the franchise
granted. ~-
The question was taken under ad-
visement by the city commissioners,
but it is likely that the new company
VIII be given permission to use the
lines.
1t was stated 1T the meeting that
the North American proposes to use
the former offices of the Independent
In the Huntington block on First ave-
nue. north, for the latter named COM

DISCOVERED
HORRIBLE CRIME

Bismarck, N. d., July 15.-The body
of a nude man was found on the shore
of the Missouri river about thirty five
miles south OF Bismarck, by a stage
mail driver coming to Bismarck. The
coroner at Linton was notified, and he
had the body buried in the cemetery
near where 1t was found. The body
was devoid of all clothing, and could
be identified.
Tt had a. bullet hole in the chest, and
the man had evidently been killed be-.
fore being thrown in the river, and had
been In the water about ten days.
He was about so years Of age and
weighed about $50 pounds. 1t was at
first thought it might have been the,
body of Brakeman Rutherford, who
disappeared from a freight train while
crossing the river, between Bismarck
and Mandan ia April, but this man
was too old for him. 1T lis thought now
1t might possibly be Fred Hammond, a
restaurant keeper ait sWashburn. who
disappeared about two weeks ago. The

Wife AFTER HUSBAND
Mrs. Parker Insists That Her Husband
Be- Further Punished-Goes to
the State Office.

Thomas Parker, a .colored man, who
was arrested a few days ago on the
complaint of his. wife, is still in the
city prison.
She charged him with drunkenness
and disorderly conduct, as we'll al
abusing her. The case, came up in the
police court and the evidence was TAX
en- and he was adjudged guilty and was
sentenced to eight days in the city
prison.
When this was. over Mrs. Parker, the
wife, called at police headquarters and
asked to make a complaint against him
in which h said that he had threat
ened her life, n she was directed to
States Attorney Fowler's office. The
case appears to be an aggravated one.
There was only one other prisoner
in the city prison this morning and he
was charged with being drunk and was
given a fine Of SIS, which he paid.
