Oando Herald: On last Friday one of the most sad events in the history NORTH DAKOTA PATENT. Owing to North Dakota's limited naval facilities it would hardly be ex pected that inventions of a maritime character would be evolved there. But Arthur Donaldson of Dunseith, N. D., through Williamson & Merchant, has just taken out a patent for armor plate that strikes naval men with favor. During the Spanish-American war Mr. Donaldson had his attention drawn to the question of armor plate and began to study the physical principles under lying the penetrability of metals with the result that he hit upon an ingen ious invention. The plate he has in vented consists of several alternate layers of steel and an elastic material. The steel plates are the toughest kind known to mechanics and the elastic material may be made of several kinds of material, but a composition of which rubber is the principal ingredient is preferred. The plates are held to gether with an ingenious contrivance of bolts which constitute a part of the patent. The best and surest remedy for any stom ach trouble is the 11 rs. This excelent medicine nev er fails to cure nstipation Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Biliousness, Liver and Kidney Troubles. Try it and be convinced. Utters DEWET THE FOX.

General Washburn and party re turned last night from Wilton and left nthe night train for the east. It was four months ago yesterday that the ground was broken for the shaft to the coal mine, and now there are several tunnels three to four hundred feet long seventy feet under the ground, from which coal is being taken at 'the rate of 200 tons a day. Elec trical mining machinery has been In stalled. The mine Is lighted through out with electricity and soon a trolley system will be put in to handle the coal cars underground. At present the coal is drawn out with cables along an inclined shaft and automatically dumped into the cars. The progress that has been ftiade In mining at Wil ton is remarkable and those who hav'e not seen for themselves will not appre ciate the magnitude of the enterprise under way there. Thj mine is oper ated after the fashion of the big east ern anthracite mines. Everything is modern. It is expected by the middle o'f January to double the output of the mine and even this will not supply the increasing demand. If the mine turned out a thousand tons a day, all could be disposed of readily. General Washburn was much pleased with the progress that has been made and ex pects to have a winner, both of mine and railroad.

The Rolette Wheel Starts up with the Sheriff in Qharge of the Game. Two Warrants are Served, One Against the Premises and One Against E.G.Patterson. Bismarck Starts Out on a New Era and the Legislature is to be Deprived of Gambling. Mayor Patterson Appears Before Judge Winchester Committing Magistrate and Placed Under $200 Bonds. Appearance to be Made January 3, In the Meantime Patterson is in the Custody of the Sheriff. Claims Not to Own the Gambling Ta bles and Will Fight the Case to a Finish. WHAT DOtS IT MEAN. Two warrants were issued Monday by Judge Winchester of the district court for the arrest of E. G. Patterson, under section 723" of the penal code of tJhe state, which makes it a misde meanor to keep or allow to be kept a place where gambling is conducted. A warrant was issued, alleging that the defendant kept such a place, and an other that he allowed such a place to be kept in his building. The section of the code under which the warrants were issued is as follows: "Every person who keeps any build ing or part of any building to be used or occupied for gambling and every owner, agent or superintendent of any such place who knowingly lets the same or allows it to be used or occu pied for gambling is guilty of a mis demeanor." The warrants, under the provision of section 723!) of the code provide also for the seizure of any gambling apparatus, taibles, etc., and a rolette table and chips were seized by Sher iff Bogue Monday afternoon in the place on Main street, and are now in charge of the sheriff at the county jail. Mr. Patterson was out of ths city when the warrants were issued to the sheriff and they will be served on his return. The complaint in the case was made by George A. Joy and the papers were, drawn up by Attorney A. T. Patterson. The papers are after the same manner as those in the case at Fargo where Judge Pollock issued warrants for the arrest of E. J. Berry and the seizure of the roulette table, which was after ward destroyed. The law provides for the destruction of the gambling appar atus seized after the conviction of the defendant. Mr. Patterson appeared before Judge Winchester today and asked for time to plead and employ counsel. The cases werp set for January 3, .1001, and bail was fixed at $200 in each case. Mr. Patterson said he would not fur nish bonds—'but was ready to be com mitted to jail—and was committed to the custody of the sheriff and is con structively in jail. He says he has no interest whatever in the gambling table that was seized. It may be asked what this action means. The officials and other parties to this action have little to say but if means anything it means that the legislators and the army of clerks and other attaches are to be de prived of some of the luxuries that have hitherto abounded in the capital city during legislative periods. "Round and 'round she goes and where she stops nobody knows," is to be a thing of the pasit in Bismarck. The jingling of chips and the seductive red and black have lost their charm— for Bismarck—no matter how lone some and forlorn the visiting states men may be this winter. A new departure has been taken in the Sixth judicial district. I&ws are to be enforced ana justice administered hereafter regardless of political alli ances or personal friendships. The judge, the sheriff, the states attorney, the mayor and other old time associ ates may "speak when they pass by" in the future but the new order of things will require no marked frater nal demonstrations. There is 10 be a new order of things in Bismarck. The states attorney has been "passed up" like a white chip. He was not advised or consulted in this action. The sheriff of Burleigh county has been placed on the list of "has beens" and does not longer possess that con fidence and faith heretofore productive of so much good feeling in the com munity. He was persuaded to take a little friendly walk—Monday after noon—and while leaning against a piece of furniture, covered with a dust cloth, was advised "not to drop dead," and handed a warrant for the arrest of one E. G. Patterson and the seizure of a certain alleged gaming table just then forming a comfortable sup port It was not even necessary that the sheriff of Burleigh county should serve this warrant. It was addressed to any "peace officer," and while Mr. Boigue was given the preference he doesn't take kindly to the methods used and says that having always done his duty in the past no committing magistrate ought to doubt Mm now. But 'these matters are details that do not necessarily interest the com munity—except in so far as they indi cate a new order of things. Of course there 4s to be no partiality shown. Gambling is under the ban and must go whether the paraphernalia belongs to the mayor or to Sanderson, Berry or anyone else. The legislature must and- shall be protected. The tempta tions must be reduced to the minimum. War has been declared. "Let us have peace" no longer hath charms to soothe the Bismarckian breast. HELD FOR TRIAL. J. H. CARVER AND WIFE HELD FOR TRIAL TO THE DISTRICT COURT IN .$500 BONDS TODAY. J. H. Carver and wife were today held by Justice Tibbils in $500 bonds for trial in the district court on the charge of obtaining money under false pretenses. They are the couple who were arrested for obtaining magazine subscriptions and throwing in valu able silks. When the case was called this morning they offered no further defense and Justice Tibbils held them for trial. It is probable they will act upon the plan that the best way out of a bad mess is to admit their wrong and ask for the lightest sentence pos sible. The ot'her persons who were concerned in the swindle have not been apprehended. In default of bail Car ver and his wife will be the guests of Sheriff Bogue for some time, awaiting the session of the district court. The Butterick Pattern company have been assisting the officials with the prosecution of the case. They offer .$100 reward for the conviction of any swindlers so that the reward in this case will probably go to Sheriff Bogue. TELEGRAPHERS FAIL. NORTHERN PACIFIC REFUSES TO RECOGNIZE THE ORGANIZATION. St. Paul, Dec. 20.—The Northern Pacific has refused the demands of its telegraphers for the formation of new rules to govern their work and conver sations. This decision was made known to the telegraphers' committee at noon today. The Northern Pacific holds that the changes demanded in the rules are substantially the same as those in effect now, though in many instances worded differently. The refusal of the railroad company for rules and recognition as an organ ization practically disposes of the wage question, as a readjustment depended almost entirely upon the adoption of new rules.

Counsel for Wertheimer denounced Castellane as a bigger knave than fool and threat ened to institute criminal prosecution. He asked the court to order the im mediate payment of indebtedness. The decision was reversed. AFTER CROWE. SUSPECTED ABDUCTOR OF YOUNG CUDAHY BELIEVED TO BE LO CATED.

Vienna, Dec. 26.—A Salonica dis patch says a body of Bashibazouks surrounded the Greek church at Banla, Albania, recently in which service was in progress and after smashing it set fire to the edifice. When the wor shippers tried to escape they were driven back into the flames and twenty incinerated. Many at the Christians were wounded by stones, and knives. 1900. THOIUI SAfi NOT.

White Hall, 111., Dec. 20.—A band of fifty citizens with a rope went to Car rol town at midnight to lynch Tobe Shcnkell, who is alleged to have robbed and assaulted Grace Giller Monday. They were foiled by the ac tion of the sheriff in removing the prisoner to the Madison county jail. Another attempt is probable. POPE TO CELEBRATE AGED PONTIFF WILL OBSERVE MIDNIGHT MASS DEC. 31.

Went Aronnd the Spot. Before Bismarck reconstructed the map of Europe aud made a united Germany a dozen little principalities used to annoy travelers by stopping them at their frontiers until they had satisfied the custom house demands. A Yankee ouce had his carriage stop ped at the frontier of a petty prince's country. The Herr Ober (controleur at the custom bouse) came forward and, much to his indignation, was received in a nonchalant way. The Yankee was ungentlemanly enough not to get out of his carriage or even to take off bis hat. The Herr Ober sharply demand ed the key of .the tourist's trunks, which his subordinate began handling roughly. "Here! Hands off!" shouted the Yankee. "I didn't come from the United States of America to be con trolled by you. Put those trunks back. I'll not go through you at all. I'll turn back. I'm in no hurry and don't care for losing a day. You're no country. You're only a spot. I'll go around you." And he did.—London King. A Way Oat of It. It was a man who opened the door when the book agent rang the bell, but a woman stood not far behind him, and subsequent developments indicated there had been a few warm words.

Beetles, Tip Barn and Their POTATO LEAF EATEN BY FLEA BEETLES, made of the arsenites. Halsted has found that the bordeaux mixture alone may more effectively protect plants against this beetle than does the poi soning with paris green. This Is of course attributable to its action as a deterrent. The bordeaux paris green mixture is more effective than is paris green alone. Flea beetles frequently cause more loss to the potato than do the potato beetles. This is largely because their attacks are most severe at or soon aft er the critical period in the develop ment of the potato. When badly eaten at this time, especially if the weather is dry, the plant never recovers. Ar senical poisons alone do not afford ade quate protection. The combination of arsenites with bordeaux mixture does serve to keep off these pests. Expe rience has also shown that bordeaux mixture alone Is sufficient protection in practice. It is necessary to make several appli cations of arsenical poisons to the po tato plant during June and July in or der to give protection against the pota to beetle. The commercial prepara tions used, paris green, london purple, etc., arc largely Insoluble. A small per cent of soluble 'arsenious acid is always present, however. This poison rarely penetrates the uninjured epi dermis to do harm, but serious damage often results when it comes In contact with mutilated tissues, such as insect injuries, rents in the leaf, etc. The tissue die and blacken for some dis tance about such spots. The full benefits from arsenical poi sons can be obtained with lighter ap plications of arsenites than usually are made and such as will cause little or no injury (e. g., 1 pound in 100 to 200 gallons water). The slight remaining danger is eliminated when lime is add ed to the arsenite or when, as is pref erable, the arsenite is applied in bor deaux mixture. In such cases the solu ble arsenious acid is made insoluble by the lime and so rendered barmles. 'Tip burn" is characterized by the death of the potato leaves at their tips and margins, which portions dry, blacken and roll up or break off. This trouble occurs during the dry hot weather of midsummer. Tip burn is not caused by parasitic fungi. It Is at tributed to unfavorable weather condi tions surrounding the plant, with in suficient water supply. As preven tion, efforts should be made to sustain the general. vigor of the plants. The only thing that can be done in addi tion is to irrigate in times of extreme drought Irrigation of potatoes is rare ly practiced in the eastern United TIP BURN OF TBS POTATO £1AV. States outside of small gardens. We have seen marked benefits from water ing such garden plots. In the western states, notably in Colorado, immense crops of potatoes are raised upon Irri gated land. In the eastern states proper attention to the accumulation of a store of hu mus in the soil by the mora frequent growth of clover, frequent tillage dur ing drought and proper spraying with bordeaux will reduce this A»mmga to little practical importance. The foregoing are among conclusions drawn by Professor L. R. Jones from Investigation of potato troubles at the Vermont station. HVh Rmm dlea—Benefits of Irrigation. Colorado potato beetles are especially active before the plants come into blos som. They are destroyed by arsenical poisons (paris green, etc.). The in sects are so numerous and omnipresent that some damage is practically un avoidable, but since their attacks large ly precede the critical period in the development of the potato, the plant recovers rapidly and the damage to the crop is small, providing timely use la l!
