an old California miner and was very
enthusiastic over the discoveries. The

daughter, who was known then as Miss
Minnie, but who is now married and
living in Oregon. Her husband was
formerly from Lisbon and still owns
property there. They have a son in
the state university at Portland, but the
iuother does not look any older than in
$he old days when gold was discovered
On the Sheyenne River.

mer and B. Cloutier, J. MacSmith, N.
W. Campbell, W. G. Ackerman, L. H.

men on the ground and attached chains
to the Fargo Southern track and pull
ed up the same with locomotives as
fast as it could be laid. The agent of
the Manitoba at Wahpeton, Mr. St.
Johns, also refused to take the cash
tendered* by General Manager Kindred
for freight bills and released forty or
fifty cars of material shipped there for
construction purposes and a 'literry|
war seemed to be on.

W. Hall was in from Grand Rapids

joining the Knights at that place. It

of Bismarck took a hand in the Fargo
Southern-Manitoba litigation by com
mencing proceedings against the latter
road asking that its officials show cause
why it should not be deprived of its
chartered privileges because of its fail- i
ure to dispatch its duties as a common
carrier, and turn over to the former
road freight duly consigned and to
which the full amount of the carrying
charges had been tendered. General
Allen as United States marshal also
took a hand in the fracas and went to
Wahpeton accompanied by a dozen
stalwart deputies, and he announced
that while it might be possible foj- k'~
person to fool with the state courts,
they could not impose on the authori
ties of the Uryted States.
There were eighteen delegates pres
ent at the democratic convention and
E. H. Palmer was named as auditor, B.
Cloutier as assessor and A. MacSmith
as county commissioner, but Mr. Clout
ier immediately issued a card stating
that he could not serve and would not
be a candidate. V I

dred men under him, but the Higher of
ficials of the road.

ritorial justice, he occdpied in reality
a triple position, as in addition to be
ing judge of the district court, he was
a member of the court of appeals in
the supreme court and was also acting
In United States cases. The various
writs sued out before him would' puz

ing and determining which should have
precedence.
Sam Treadwell discusses the New
Ulm cyclone and says, that fit-was a
judgment of the Almighty on the town
because it was first started by athiests
and infidels who planted a Godless
community, and that the first punish
ment meted out upon it was when
the Indians swooped down and massa
cred the inhabitants and then in July,
1901, it was again placed in ruins in
consequence of one of the worst tor
nadoes ever witnessed in the west. Mr.

From a Catholic institution to Cen

Some years ago a friend of our insti

Peruna as an excellent remedy for the
influenza of which we then had several
cases which treatened to be of a serious
character.
u
We began to use it and experienced
such wonderful results that since then
Peruna has become our favorite medi
cine for influenza, catarrh, cold, cough
and bronchitis."
Another reepmmend from a Catholic

Pe-ru-na for Catarrh.
Dr. Hartman receives many letters
from Catholic Sisters all over the United
States. A recommend recently n»*
ceived from a Catholic institution in th»
Southwest reads as follows:
A Prominent Mother Superior SajWt
u
I can testify from experience to th#
efficiency of Peruna as one of the very
best medicines, and it gives me pleasure
to add my praise to that of thousands
who have used it. For years I suffered
with catarrh of the stomach, all reme
dies proving valueless for relief. Last
spring I went to Colorado, hoping to be
benefited by a change of climate
while there a friend advised me to try
Peruna. After using two bottles I found
myself very much improved. The re»
mains of my old disease being now so
slight, I consider myself cured, yet for
a while I intend to continue the use of
Peruna. I am now treating another
patient with your medicine. She haa
been sick with malaria and troubled
with leucorrheea. I have not a doubt
that a cure will be speedily effected."
These are samples of letters received
hy Dr. Hartman from the various
orders of Catholic Sistara throughout
the United States.
The names and addresses to these let
ters have been withheld from respect
to the Sisters but will be furnished upon
request.
One-half of the diseases which afflict
mankind are due to some catarrhal de
rangement of the mucous membrane
lining son# organ or passage of the
body.
A remedy that would aot immediately
upon the congested mucous membrane
restoring it to its normal state, would
consequently cure all these diseases.
Catarrh is catarrh wherever located,
whether it be in the head, throat, lungs,
stomach, kidneys, or pelvic organs. A
remedy that will core it in one in^tlw
will cure it In all locations*
If you do not receive prompt and satis
factory results from the use of Peruna,
write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a
full statement of your case, and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable ad
vice gratis.

The Hartman Sanitarium, CoiumtxMk

With cinders ground into a face
bruised and bleeding, and his body more
or less battered, Henry Fornice appear
ed at the police station last night about
10 o'clock and made application for a
night's lodging. He stated to Captain
Grant that while passing through the
city from Hunter, en route to the woods
in Minnesota, he had been thrown from
the steps of a coach on which he was
riding and dragged for quite a distance
by a rapidly moving train. When the
train pulled into the yards he left his
seat in the car to take a survey of Fargo,
and by a sudden and unexpected jolt of
the train he was thrown to the ground.
The fellow was allowed to spend the
night at the station and this morning
continued his journey. His injuries
y^ere. not of a serious nature.
