The year which onds tu-niorrow lias been marked l>y ineal events, especially ot a destructive nature. l'rof. Totten, ol end-nl-the-world ' fame, says that ill i- lias been the , closing year of the period ol strife 1 and destruction and that iSij.j will j usher in the thousand years ol j peace. When we recount the cy-, clones, railway and marine disas- j ters, explosions and other dread- j fill occurrences of iSy.i. we may j well believe the first part of his i statement, and it will certainly lie : comforting to accept the second, i To recount: Great fires have : visited Boston, Chicago, Haiti- ; more, San Francisco and --Far^o. | Between January Ji, and No-1 vembcr S, I S Q > there were twen- ty-nine railway accidents in the United States, resulting in the death of 230 persons and the in- jury of 927. ; Cyclones on sea and land have been of frequent occurrence, those along the South Atlantic coast, and in Iowa, Illinois, Nebraska, Kansas and Arkansas being most severe. The winter of 1892-1893 was of unprecedented severity through- out the United States, and, in all over the world; and much suf fering was the result. January 14, a revolution took l'l.i > 1 1.1-: on all sides talk a great deal about "hard times," and it seems to be a popular theme; but to talk with the merchants of Dickinson, one does not get the idea that the Christmas trade has been poor by any means. On the contrary, most dealers say that trade lias been good and much be- yond their expectations. Tin KSP.W morning a train of nineteen ear:- ol coal was billed out of Dickinson for points in Cass county, llie large placards on each car read, "North Dakota coal for Cass County, from the l.ehigh Coal Mines, Dickinson, N. D." We venture the assertion that there is not another town in the state sending out coal by the train-load. "W11.1. a strike occur 011 the Northern l'acillc?" is a question much discussed during the latter part of this week. Many theories are advanced, some reasonable and some unreasonable; but so far as owe can judge at this writing, it is clearly a matter of specula- tion. Nobody knows. If a.strike conies, it will be January first when the new schedule goes into effect. In the mean time United States let, i niarshalshavebeenstationed along the line and injunctions served on the employes. The road being in the hands of a receiver, this or- I). S.

Clip the last thirty yearn or more from the century, and the segment will represent the term of the unbounded popularity of Hosteller'?* Stom- ach Bitters. The opening of the year JSM will be signalized by the appearance of a fresh Almanac of the Bitters, in which the uses, derivation and action of this* world-famous medicine will be set forth. Everybody should read it, The calenda^ and astronomical calculations to be found in this brochure are always astonishingly accurate, and the statistics, illustrations, humor and other reading matter rich in interest and full of profit. The Hoetetter Company, of Pittsburg, l'a., pub- lish it themselves. They employ more than sixty hands in the mcchanical work, aud more than leven months in the year are consumed in its laration. It can be obtained, without cost, of all druggists and country dealers, and is printed in English, German, French, Welch, Norwegian, Holland, Bohemian and Spanish. The Western Rural. The Western Rural and American Stockman, published at Chicago, is without doubt the lead- ing journal of "!ts class, having been in the field for more than thirty years, and is the only Semi- Weekly agricultural journal in the world. The Monday edition is devoted to commerce, trans- portation, finance, crop conditions, markets and a summary of telegraphic news from all parts of the world. The Thursday edition is devoted to farm and household affairs, a department being devoted to every branch of farm and garden culture and live stock. Also to literature, science, hygiene, educa- tion, poetry and a young people's department. Each of these two editions is complete in itself, and the subscription price of both editions being but $1.25 the subscriber gets two complete and valuable papers for one subscription price. With this low price of $1.25 there Is also givon a beau- tiful 12-color picture of the wonderful World's Fair and Chicago, entitled the "Dream City'' iGx 26 for framing, as a Souvenir of the "White City" that is now but a dream. We will club The West- ern Rural and American Stockman with The PRESS at only $2.50 every subscriber receiving both editions of The Western Rural one year aud the picture of the 4i I)reain City free. Sample copies of the Western Rural, both editions, will be sent to any one by addressing MILTON GEORGE, Publisher, 324 Dearborn St., Chicago, 111. AND place in Hawaii, which resulted in J der came from the Lnited States the overthrow of the monarch} - court. 1 he substance ol the in- ane! the establishment of a provis- ! junction is: No employes or ional government. In February, President Harrison sent to the Senate his message, recommend- ing the annexation of Hawaii, and the treaty, which was withdrawn byhissuccessor. President Cleve- land, in the late fall, made an at- tempt- so far unsuccessful to re- store the Hawaiian queen. 13ra/.il is torn by a revolution, and difficulties arose in the sum- mer between France and Siam, re- sulting in a blockade of Siamese- ports for a time. During the summer and early fall, bank after bank failed, hun- dreds of business houses went down and stagnation of trade was the result. Lack of confidence in monetary and tariff legislation caused the great business panic of 1S93. The monetary condi- tions were somewhat improved by the repeal .of the "Sherman law." The Columbian Exposition at Chicago was unquestionably the greatest event of the year. It opened May 1, and closed Octo- ber 30. Because of the Fair, the Infanta Eulalie and the Duke of Veragua of Spain visited this country during the summer, the guests of the nation. The year lias been noted for the number of congresses, conventions, and associations, prominent among them the Parliament of Religions, at Chicago. The mortuary list contains names famous in science, art, lit- erature, theology, politics, etc. Among them we note: Gen. B. F. Butler, Ex-President Mayes. Bishop Phillips Brooks, Justice!,. O. C. Lamar, lion. James G. Blaine, Gen. Beauregard, Edwin Booth, Lucy Stone Blackwell, Francis l'arkman, Hon. Jeremiah Rusk—all of the United States. The new year is almost upon us and we hope for less of death, ac- cident, stress of weather, moneta- ry stringency, failure of crops and lack of work than is recorded for 1893. And we say, Hail! 1S94. other persons shall meet together to lay plans or schemes to organ- ize a strike. That the men must attend to the duties for which the} - are paid, and any attempt at interference with the company's properly or factois, will be in vio- lation of the i 11 junctional orders and parties violating the same will lie held to account. The United States marshal's orders arc that the property must not be molest- ed in any way and that trains will be run, manned, if necessary, by deputy marshals -the marshal's authority to appoint any number of assistants necessary to enforce the orders of the court are already issued. Indications yesterday were not fav- orable to a strike. Mr. J. P. Blaise, an extensive real estate dealer in Des Moines, Iowa, narrowly escaped one of the severest attacks of pneumonia while in the northern part of the state during a recent blizzard, says the Saturday Re view. Mr. Blaize had occasion to drive several miles during the storm, and was so thoroughly chilled that lie was unable to get warm, and inside of an hour after his return he was threatened with a severe ease of pneumonia or lung fever. Mr. Blaize .sent to the nearest drug store and got a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, of which he had often heard, and took a number of large doses. He .says the effect was wonderful, and in a short time he was breathing quite easily. lie kept on taking the medi cine and the next day was able to come to Des Moines. Mr. Blaize re- gards his cure as simply wonderful. Por sale by druggists. V .STATIC OK OHIO, CITY OK T OLKPO. F Lucas County. $ Prank .!.

THE DICKINSON PKKSS says there are 40,000,000 tons of coal in the Lehigh mines, and the Bis- marck Tribune would like to ask where the I'KESS got its informa- tion.—Fargo Argus. A simple problem in mathemat- ics. If one acre will produce 40,000 tons, 1,000 acres will pro- duce 40,000,000 tons. Competent engineers have made careful esti- mates of the quantity of coal in the Lehigh mines. A move is 0:1 foot to have business houses close at 7 o'clock in the even- ing for the winter months. At this writing all but two or three of the merchants have signed a petition for early dosing. It is a good idea. 'J'he McDowell Illustrated Maga- zines are the standard authorities in either Paris.

Wished They Were All Blind* Robert Bums' friend, Dr. Black- lock, the blind poet, was a licentiate of the Churcli of Scotland and used to preaeli occasionally. Ono Sunday ho was supplying a country pulpit. Certain deaf old women, as was the custom in those days, had squatted on the pulpit stairs to he as near the preacher as possible. Like the mass of the Scot- tish people, they abominated sermons that were read. One of them, as soon as the dis course was begun, 6aid to her neigh- bor in a tone that was audible through the whole church, "Is he readin?" "Tuts, woman I No, he canna read —he's blind." "Blind, is he, eh? That's raal for- t'nate. I wish they were a' blind 1" —Youth's Companion. White Horse.

State of North Dakota, 1 In District Court, J The second edition of the Decem- ber World's Fair Cosmopolitan brings the total up to the extraordinary fig- ure of 400,000 copies, an unprecedent- ed result in the history of magazines. Four hundred thousand copies—200 tons—ninety-four million pages— enough to fill 200 wagons with 2,000 pounds each—in a single line, in close order, this would be a file of wagons more than a mile and a half long. This means not less than 2,000,000 readers, scattered throughout every town and village in the United States. The course of the Cosmopolitan for the past twelve months may be com- pared to that of a rolling snowball; more subscribers mean more money spent in buying the best articles and illustrations in the world; better illus- trations and better articles mean more subscribers, and so the two things are acting and re-acting upon each other until it seems probable that the day is not far distant when the magazine publisher will be able to give so excellent an article that it will claim the attention of every in- telligent reader in the country. Happy New Year! That is the wish of the Burlington Route for the many thousand North- western people who have traveled over its lines during 1893, and the many more thousands who will do so during 1894. Now a word about the development of the Burlington sys- tem. In 1880, the Chicago, Burling- ton & Quincy Company, the parent Burlington road, operated only 1,700 miles. In that year it acquired 830 miles of the Burlington & Missouri ltiver in Nebraska. Branch lines were at once built to almost all the important towns in Nebraska, and in May, 1882, the road was completed to Denver, Colorado. In 1887, the line was opened to Cheyenne, Wyoming, the center of a large cattle trade. To supply coal for the operation of the Western lines, a narrow gauge road running from Denver to Lyons was purchased, and in 1889 a line was pushed to New Castle, Wyo., to take advantage of large coal fields there. In 1880, the Chicago, Burlington & Northern was completed, giving a connection with St. Paul and Minne- apolis. In 1891, the road reached Deadwood, giving access to the rich mining regions of the Black Hills and the healing Hot Springs of Dako- ta. By control of several Missouri railroads the Burlington added St. Louis, Kansas City aud St. Joseph as terminal points, and is now engaged in building a bridge across the Mis- sissippi above St. Louis, and another across the Missouri near that city, besides purchasing large terminal grounds. Three gateways are open for traffic from the Fast—Chicago, Peoria and St. Louis—and from them diverge lines passing through ten different states: Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado, Wyoming and South Dakota, and reaching every im- portant trade center—St. Paul and Minneapolis on the Northwest, Kan- sas City and St. Joseph on the South- west, and Omaha, Deadwood. Chey- enne and Denver on the West. AVitli now 7,000 miles of road in the best possible condition, the Burlington system challenges competition, and assures the public of the same excel- lent service as in the past, For any information as to tickets, routes and rates, write to W.

Everybody should read it , The calenda^ and astronomical calculations to be found in this brochure are always astonishingly accurate, and the statistics, illustrations, humor and other reading matter rich in interest and full of profit . The Hoetetter Company, of Pittsburg, l 'a. , pub­lish it themselves. They employ more than sixty hands in the mcchanical work, aud more than leven months in the year are consumed in its

During the summer and early fal l , bank after bank fai led, hun­dreds of business houses went down and stagnation of t rade was the result .

Mr. J. P.

Mr. Blaize had occasion to drive several miles during the storm, and was so thoroughly chilled that lie was unable to get warm, and inside of an hour after his return he was threatened with a severe ease of pneumonia or lung fever. Mr. Blaize .sent to the nearest drug store and got a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, of which he had often heard, and took a number of large doses. He .says the effect was wonderful, and in a short time he was breathing quite easily. lie kept on taking the medi cine and the next day was able to come to Des Moines.

THE DICKINSON PKKSS says there are 40,000,000 tons of coal in the Lehigh mines, and the Bis­marck Tribune would like to ask where the I'KESS got its informa­tion.—Fargo Argus.

A simple problem in mathemat­ics. If one acre will produce 40,000 tons, 1,000 acres will pro­duce 40,000,000 tons. Competent engineers have made careful esti­mates of the quantity of coal in the Lehigh mines.

A move is 0:1 foot to have business houses close at 7 o'clock in the even­ing for the winter months. At this writing all but two or three of the merchants have signed a petition for early dosing. It is a good idea.

The second edition of the Decem­ber World's Fair Cosmopolitan brings the total up to the extraordinary fig­ure of 400,000 copies, an unprecedent­ed result in the history of magazines. Four hundred thousand copies—200 tons—ninety-four million pages— enough to fill 200 wagons with 2,000 pounds each—in a single line, in close order, this would be a file of wagons more than a mile and a half long. This means not less than 2,000,000 readers, scattered throughout every town and village in the United States. The course of the Cosmopolitan for the past twelve months may be com­pared to that of a rolling snowball; more subscribers mean more money spent in buying the best articles and illustrations in the world; better illus­trations and better articles mean more subscribers, and so the two things are acting and re-acting upon each other until it seems probable that the day is not far distant when the magazine publisher will be able to give so excellent an article that it will claim the attention of every in­telligent reader in the country.

Happy New Year!

That is the wish of the Burlington Route for the many thousand North­western people who have traveled over its lines during 1893, and the many more thousands who will do so during 1894. Now a word about the development of the Burlington sys­tem. In 1880, the Chicago, Burling­ton & Quincy Company, the parent Burlington road, operated only 1,700 miles. In that year it acquired 830 miles of the Burlington & Missouri ltiver in Nebraska. Branch lines were at once built to almost all the important towns in Nebraska, and in May, 1882, the road was completed to Denver, Colorado. In 1887, the line was opened to Cheyenne, Wyoming, the center of a large cattle trade. To supply coal for the operation of the Western lines, a narrow gauge road running from Denver to Lyons was purchased, and in 1889 a line was pushed to New Castle, Wyo., to take advantage of large coal fields there. In 1880, the Chicago, Burlington & Northern was completed, giving a connection with St. Paul and Minne­apolis. In 1891, the road reached Deadwood, giving access to the rich mining regions of the Black Hills and the healing Hot Springs of Dako­ta. By control of several Missouri railroads the Burlington added St. Louis, Kansas City aud St. Joseph as terminal points, and is now engaged in building a bridge across the Mis­sissippi above St. Louis, and another across the Missouri near that city, besides purchasing large terminal grounds. Three gateways are open for traffic from the Fast—Chicago, Peoria and St. Louis—and from them diverge lines passing through ten different states: Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado, Wyoming and South Dakota, and reaching every im­portant trade center—St. Paul and Minneapolis on the Northwest, Kan­sas City and St. Joseph on the South­west, and Omaha, Deadwood. Chey­enne and Denver on the West. AVitli now 7,000 miles of road in the best possible condition, the Burlington system challenges competition, and assures the public of the same excel­lent service as in the past, For any information as to tickets, routes and rates, write to W. J. C. Kenyon, Gen. Pass. Agent, St. Paul, Minn.
