Joel Ermanskl, who does a rag-picking business at 927 Second street north, claims to have fallen heir to quite a little fortune. He states that he had purchased a lot of ragß and that when his daughter cut them up she found a number of bank notes, ranging in denomination from $1 to $500. The amount aggregated nearly $1,000. Some of the notes were badly mutilated. Ermanskl, flushed with his good luck, visited a banker and laid the matter before him. He was advised to write to the treasury department at Washing- ton to see if the notes were of value after being so badly cut. Joel has done so, and is now waiting to hear from the authorities. The story seems improbable, but Mr. Er- manski vouches for it. A|M»sir<H|iliixiii S - Their Association.

YOUNG BATHER MEETS DEATH. BODY RECOVERED BY THE FATHER WHEN THE SPARK OF LIFE WAS EXPIRING. C. A. GAU ENDS LIFE BY SHOOTING. Wholesale Rnnawayi Caused by a Steam Roller News of Minne- apolis. Piercing, agonized screams awoHe the quiet echoes of the locality of First avenue and eleventh street south about 8:30 last evening, and the awful spectacle of a woman enveloped in a burst of flames was presented in the yard in the rear of W. W. Harrison's residence, 113 Eleventh street. Selma Herrick, a Swedish domestic, was the victim and was so frightfully burned it will be almost a miracle if she recovers. She had gone last night I to visit her sister, who is a domestic in Mr. Harrison's family. The two girls were in the sister's room in the domestic's quarters over the barn and were making their toilets preparatory to going out. In taking the curling iron from the lamp, where it was heat- ing, the burned girl in some way up- set the lamp into her lap, and in an instant her clothing was ignited. Pick- I ing up the lamp, apparently unmind- i ful of her own peril and thinking to prevent a conflagration, she started down stairs with it, and not until she had cast it away did she realize her own plight. Her clothing by this time w.._ well ablaze and running out into the yard she rolled on the ground at- tempting to extinguish the flames, i screaming meanwhile in fright and ! agony. Her outcries with those of her sister ; attracted the attention of neighbors ! and several went to her assistance. Her burning clothes were torn from her body and she was carried back to the room. The chemical which had been | called arrived at this time and the | firemen lent their efforts toward as- ; suaging her terrible pain. With soda and ointment which they carry, they covered her body and made her as comfortable as possible. Suffering ex- treme pain, as she was, she was eon- sc-ious and exhibited wonderful forti- tude. Her lower limbs, abdomen and chest are terribly scorched. Her hair was burnt from her head and her face is frightfully seared by the flames. Her nostrils and tongue are burned , and blistered and it does not seem pos- jsible she did not inhale the fire. Phys- , icians were in attendance immediately and hypodermic injections were given I her to relieve her misery. The room to which she was taken was made com- fortable for her and she will remain l there for the present. But little hope is entertained for her recovery. Her injuries are so severe that if she has not inhaled the flames, it is thought her system cannot recover from the shock. ORDERS ARE OUT. Minnesota Pj thiang Summoned to Camp Yale.

P. headquarters yesterday. The stools have been designed especially for the Min- neapolis encampment, and are models of comfort and elegance. It was the aim of the manufacturer to make the stools as attractive as possible, as It is a fad of the uniform rank to carry away from camp their stools as souvenirs. The Minneapolis stools will be found the handsomest in these collections, as they were manufactured for the purpose. Each stool is neatly inscribed: "Encamp- ment K. P. 1896, Minneapolis." Asphalt Bnsiaeii Is Rushing:. Hot asphalt is a staple product in Minne- apolis and is in general use, so much so that the odor pervades to all parts of the city.

The festivities close with a picnic today at Minnetonka. LIGHTXIXG DELIVERY. WholeNule Runaway of Vena's Gro- cery Trams. Fifth street in the neighborhood of Yerxa's store, was a scene of excite- ;ment at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon, | when the advent of the steam roller used in laying asphalt caused a wild .stampede among the delivery horses. Six or eight of Yerxas wagons, at- tached to as many horses, were waiting for their respective loads for delivery ! when the steam roller, which had been ! viewed with apprehersion by the ! horses all day, began to emit more i than the usual volume of steam. Then one of the horses, none of whom were hitched, gave a wild neigh and went j down the street on the jump. This was the signal for the others, and all started away at a mad gallop for different points of the compass. As a result there soon was no room on Fifth j street and adjacent avenues for any- thing but runaways. The runaway horses smashed other vehicles right and left and the wildest confusion resulted. Pedestrians began to get out of the way and all the police- | men in the neighborhood rushed to the scene to quell the disturbance. All but two of Yerxa's horses were stopped before a great amount of dam- age had been done, although two of the wagons were knocked out of shape to a considerable extent. Two horses with their wagons got away, however, and went down Fifth street at a killing pace with a clear stretch before them. At last accounts they were still run- ning. Three or four vehicles, the own- ers of which could not be learned, were laid up for repairs because of col- lisions with the runaways. Luckily no one was injured. ABOUT EVEN. Flour Mills Are Grinding: More Than They Were Last Year. There was a slight decrease in the output last week, the quantity turned out being 249,540 bbts. against 254,505 bbls the preceding week, and 216,680 bbls a year ago says the Miller. The same number of mills are run- ning as was a week ago, one mill of small capacity having shut down and a larger one having started. There is likely to be a slight- ly larger production next week, as one more mill will be added to the active list tomor- row. The water power is good, but not suf- ficient to keep all of the mills going with water, and two are using part steam. Sales of flour were the largest for three weeks, ap- proximating 400.000 bbls more than double those of the week before. The 2c drop in the price of wheat made this business possi- ble. While the bulk of these sales were for domestic markets, foreign bids were stim- ulated, and very satisfactory sales were of- fered. Some foreign offers are too low for acceptance, being 6d out of line for patent and 3d for clear. The sales of patent and clear abroad were about equally divided. The domestic trade shows a disposition to take hold at present low prices, and good lots of patent and clear were disposed of. Low grade is hard to sell, and what is disposed cf goes at a reduced range. Feed is still tending downward. Sales are very slow, and prices obtained are unsatisfactory. DROWXED IX THE RIVER. Xine-Year-Old Hoy Slips From a Los to His Death. James Francis Clark, a lad nine years old, was drowned yesterday afternoon near the Tenth avenue bridge. The boy had been given permission by his father to go to the shallow water on the west side and cautioned to return shortly. It seems that the little fellow was in the habit of slipping away with older boys for a swim whenever he could elude his parents' vigilance. Yesterday after- noon, instead of returning home, he was persuaded to go to the east side of the river, where the water is deep. In playing, he slipped off a log. His companions became frightened and ran for his father, who is employed as head miller for the Minneapolis Millingcompany. Mr. Clark ran to the spot and succeeded in rescuing the boy alive, but he died in his father's arms a few minutes after being taken from the water. He is the only son of Mr. Clark. The boy was re- moved to the parents' residence, 1010 Fifth street south. The funeral will probably occur Sunday, though definite 'arrangements have not been made yet, GOOD YEAR FOR CORN. Prime Talks of Crop Conditions in the Noirthweit. S. T. K. Prime, the crop expert of Dwight, i 111., in the city yesterday, said the corn crop would be fully up to last year, being practi- cally out of danger from frost, although I damaged some during the last week from hot weather. Oats is very poor, particularly that remaining In the shock, on account of the wet weather since it was cut. The winter wheat crop is found to be poorer than expected, and has been damaged during the last ten days. It will go very low grade on the whole. The spring wheat crop he esti- mates at 125.000,000 bushels, or less, even, and his principal business here at this time is to look up the situation. John Llnd Will Speak. A concert willl be given at the Exposition Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock for the benefit of the Emmanuel Lutheran church, Thir- teenth avenue and Monroe street northeast. The programme is long and varied. The ad- dress of the evening willbe delivered by John Lind. Captured Burglar Grass. Lawrence Grass was arrested yesterday on the charge of grand larceny. Last week the home of Mrs, Anderson, on Third avenue south, was burglarized in the daytime and $10 in money and about $25 worth of clothing was taken. Neighbors had seen a stranger about the premises and from them a descrip- tion was obtained, and the police have since been on the lookout for the culprit. Grass used the money In the purchase of a suit of clothes and thereby concealed his identity until yesterdey, when he wandered onto Offi- cer Mike Duggan's beat and was by him ar- rested. Bicycle Thieves Wanted. Albert Dradin and W. H. Curtis have in- voked the assistance of the police to recover their bicycles and arrest the miscreants who made off with them. The former Dradin's was taken from his residence, 418 Second avenue south, and Curtis' from the New York Life building, where he is employe's. SMOOTH INDIVIDUALS. Confidence Men Have Already Made Their Appearance. An enterprising Individual, with an eye single to any kind of currency. Is making trouble for the accommodation committee, of the K. P., Carnival and G. A. R., whose headquarters are room 254 Sikes block, pre- sided over by J. S. Masterman. Yesterday afternoon a Mr. Morrison, of Jackson street and Nineteenth avenue northeast, dropped In to make a few inquiries concerning a smooth stranger who had Induced him to pay fifty cents for registering a room at his residence. In return the stranger promised to send Mr. Morrison a guest who w^juld pay him $3.50 per day through carnival week. Similar com- plaints from other victliftfc of the stranger's little confidence game have been pouring Into headquarters, and Mr. Masterman has no doubt but what a gang of swindlers are sys- tematically robbing people who have rooms to rent In all parts of the cfty. Mr. Masterman wishes-' it understood that the accommodation committee employs no soicltors, and desires to impress upon parties having rooms to list with the committee the necessity of promptly cayjng at headquarters and registering their names and addresses. TAVO MRS. PARTELLOS. The Alleged Counterfeiter Seenm to Be Much Married. A new and sensational charge has come up against S. O. Partello, the man who Is in jail charged with counterfeiting, namely, that he has too many wives. One of these, Mrs. Celia Partello, has been a constant caller at the jail to see her "husband" since his arrest. She lives at 413 Seventh avenue south. The other wife, Mrs. Annie Partello, lives at 1115 Greenbrier avenue, St. Paul, with her two children, who are also named Partello. Mrs. Annie recently wrote the sheriff that she was the lawful wife of Par- tello, and demanding that any other woman claiming to be the wife be refused admit- tance to the jail. Yesterday Mrs. Cella came to the sheriff's office for a ticket of admit- tance, which was refused. Deputy Sheriff Phil Megaarden told her quietly but firmly that if she could show her marriage cer- tificate he would admit her. Mrs. Celia de- clared she was his wile and brought a lawyer to affirm that she had sworn on the stand that she was married to Partello. She got her ticket of admission. THEY CALLED ITOFF. No. G. A. R. Campnre to Be Held in Minneapolis. The Minneapolis committee on entertain- ment of the G. A. R. met yesterday after- noon at Mayor Pratt'a office and decided not to hold a campfire at Exposition hall during the encampment week as had been proposed. The members of the committee are: Mayor Pratt, Judge Hicks, Daniel Fish, William P. Roberts. Hiram Truesdell, James H. Ege, John F. Rea. The reason for calling off the eamofire is because of the many counter attractions which have already been proposed for the firsts week in September, both in Minneapolis and in St. Paul. The committee decided to call a meetki^ for tonight, at Morgan "'post hall, Hennepin avenue, between First and Second streets, at which all of the post commanders of the city are invited to be present. Important matters incident to the encampment are to be discussed. y WEARY OF THE WORLD. Charles A. Gaa, an Old Mlnneapoll- tan, Committed Suicide. Charles A. Gau. who for nineteen years has conducted a boarding house at 244 Seventh avenue south, committed suicide yesterday morning by shooting himself through the head in the bath room o? the house.

The county commissioners met with the construction committee of the court house and city hall commission yesterday afternoon to see what couid be done toward completing the new jail and putting a needed boiler in the basement. The court hcuse and city hall commission stated that it had no funds, and could do nothing. Commissioner Conroy asked that the board be informed of that fact officially, that it might lake the proper steps, and the two committees <hen mads a tour of inspection of the jail floor. Things were found in a decidedly unfinished condi- tion, with no prospect of speedy occupancy of the new quarters. Uniforming the Club. The Twelfth Ward Republican club held a meeting last evening at Adams' hall. Lake street and Twenty-fourth avenue. W. Thurs- ton presided as chairman and introduced the following speakers: John Parton, A. C. Haugen, Dr. E. S. Kelley, Al J. Smith, E. H. Blackburn, S. M. Reese and E. M. Harrison.

Some of the Anoka county politicians have been in Minneapolis since the bolt, seeing what could be done to. satisfy their people, and It is understood that a deal involving the location of the insane asylum there, or at least the support of 'the Hennepin legislat- ors .in such a deal Is what they are looking for.

SEDALIA, Mo., Aug. 20.—A novel suit has been instituted In the circuit court, as a result of a wager on the presidential election. Charles R. Field, an enthusiastic free silver Democrat and a wealthy farmer of Pettis county, was very anxious to bet that Bryan would be elected, and he was willing and able to back his belief with big money. John P. McMahan, a lifelong Democrat, who has studiously noted the trend of political events, offered to wager $1,000 even money on McKinley. Field commenced to hedge, wanted odds, and finally offered $500 to $1,000 on Bryan, and McMahan accepted, and the stakes were placed with W. H. Powell Jr., cashier of the Citizens' National bank. Mr. Field, after a few days' investigation of the political hori- zon, concluded his money was already as good as lost, and attempted to pull down his shares of the stakes. The stakeholder said this could not be done, and now Mr. Field asks the aid of the court to recover his 4500. forking for McKinley. Special to the Globe. 1 MITCHELL, S.

WATERTOWN, S D., Aug. 20.—At about 11 o'clock last night fire broke out in a two-story frame building oc- cupied by John Filber. The occupants were asleep at the time, and before help arrived had been so overpowered by smoke and flames as to be help- less. Mrs. Filber. although advanced in years, was the first to recover con- sciousness, and made her escape from the burning building, after sustaining severe burns about the hands and face ' in attempting to rescue her husband i and daughters. Rose, the ten-year-old i daughter, also succeeded in escaping \ the death trap, carrying with her a younger sister, Tille, aged seven, terri- bly burned and bleeding, who, in spite of every effort made to assuage her sufferings, died this morning. The ! aged father and daughter Katie, six- teen years of age, died before they could be reached. Rescuers tried to pull the father out of the window, but. found it impossible, as his flesh pulled off in handfuls. Two sons and four daughters were away from home at the time. The building was totally J destroyed, the fire having great head- way before the fire department could do any effective work. Charred and mangled fragments of the bodies were picked up among the ruins this morn- ing.

HURON, S D., Aug. 21.— Senator Pet- tigrew is making a few speeches in this part of the state before entering j upon a thorough canvass. While here J today, he met a number of friends with whom he chatted pleasantly of the po- litical situation in this state. He says the Populist-Democratic state ticket will be elected and Bryan electors chosen. He expressed satisfaction with the progress being made by the com- mittee in organizing its forces through- out the state and the earnestness of free silver advocates in behalf of their nominees. "I have no doubt of the triumph of our cause," said he, "if our i people continue as earnest as they are now, until election day. I shall "make as thorough canvass of the state as possible, and expect to keep in the | field till Nov. 3. I will speak in Huron I toward the latter part of the campaign. I find the people everywhere anxious i for literature bearing upon the money Question) and their demands are being j supplied as fast as possible." SCHOOLS WILL PILL THROUGH. North Dakota Normals Have Funds to Start in the Year With. BISMARCK, N. D., Aug. 20.— The state normal school board is in session ; here this week, and will take action with reference to the approval of the faculties chosen for the year. While these schools have received no appro- j priation from the state for the past ! two years, their operation comes under i the control of the state board and any j action must be approved by them. The two schools have been kept open the past year through local efforts largely. The Mayville school, repre- sented by President Thomas Harrison, comes before the board with $2,700 in cash to guarantee the salary of the faculty for the first term, and the Val- ley City school, represented by Prcsi- \ dent. Wright, has pledges of a sufficient ! amount to operate until the legislature j meets. The Mayville school, at the j close of the last school year, notwith- standing the absence of a state ap- j propriation, found itself with about thirty-five hundred dollars in the j treasury These two institutions are among those of which the appropriation was | vetoed by Gov. Allin, owing to lack of funds in the treasury, and has, of course, experienced some hardship by lack of state appropriations. It is the i intent of both institutions, however, ! to ask from the next legislature an ap- propriation based only upon actual necessities. ALL THE ISSUES OR NONE. Terms .Indue Morris Inaixts Upon for ] Joint Deliate. DULUTH, Aug. 20.—The representa- tives of the two candidates for congress in the Sixth district, have not yet been able to arrange a joint debate between j Mr. Morris and Mr. Towne, for the I reason, it is said, that Mr. Towne, though the challenge came from him, i insisted on naming the terms of the de- | bate and fixing the preliminaries to j suit himself. Mr. Morris from the first j has declared himself willing to meet j Towne, but has insisted that he should i have some part in making the arrange- ments. One point at issue is, that Mr. i Towne insists on restricting the dis- j cvssion to the silver question, while Mr. Morris wants it to include all the issues of the campaign. Tonight Lee M. Wilcutts, chairman of the congres- sional committee, furnished the follow- ing official statement to the Globe: "Judge Morris stands ready to debate jointly with Mr. Towne, but will not let Towne's friends dictate all the terms DISEASES of the Liver, Kidneys and Bladder are quickly relieved and permanent- ly cured by using Dr. J.

Piercing, agonized screams awoHethe quiet echoes of the locality of Firstavenue and eleventh street southabout 8:30 last evening, and the awfulspectacle of a woman enveloped in aburst of flames was presented in theyard in the rear of W. W. Harrison'sresidence, 113 Eleventh street. SelmaHerrick, a Swedish domestic, wasthe victim and was so frightfully

burned it will be almost a miracle ifshe recovers. She had gone last night

I to visit her sister, who is a domesticin Mr. Harrison's family. The twogirls were in the sister's room in thedomestic's quarters over the barn andwere making their toilets preparatoryto going out. In taking the curlingiron from the lamp, where it was heat-ing, the burned girl in some way up-set the lamp into her lap, and in aninstant her clothing was ignited. Pick-

Iing up the lamp, apparently unmind-i ful of her own peril and thinking to

prevent a conflagration, she starteddown stairs with it, and not until shehad cast it away did she realize herown plight. Her clothing by this timew.._ well ablaze and running out intothe yard she rolled on the ground at-tempting to extinguish the flames,

i screaming meanwhile in fright and! agony.

Her outcries with those of her sister;attracted the attention of neighbors!and several went to her assistance. Herburning clothes were torn from herbody and she was carried back to theroom. The chemical which had been

| called arrived at this time and the| firemen lent their efforts toward as-; suaging her terrible pain. With sodaand ointment which they carry, theycovered her body and made her ascomfortable as possible. Suffering ex-treme pain, as she was, she was eon-sc-ious and exhibited wonderful forti-tude. Her lower limbs, abdomen andchest are terribly scorched. Her hairwas burnt from her head and her faceis frightfully seared by the flames.Her nostrils and tongue are burned,and blistered and it does not seem pos-

jsible she did not inhale the fire. Phys-,icians were in attendance immediatelyand hypodermic injections were given

Iher to relieve her misery. The room towhich she was taken was made com-fortable for her and she will remain

lthere for the present. But little hopeis entertained for her recovery. Herinjuries are so severe that if she hasnot inhaled the flames, it is thoughther system cannot recover from theshock.

The Minneapolis stools willbe found the handsomest in these collections,as they were manufactured for the purpose.Each stool is neatly inscribed: "Encamp-ment K. P. 1896, Minneapolis."

LIGHTXIXGDELIVERY.

WholeNule Runaway of Vena's Gro-cery Trams.

Fifth street in the neighborhood ofYerxa's store, was a scene of excite-

;ment at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon,| when the advent of the steam roller

used in laying asphalt caused a wild.stampede among the delivery horses.

Six or eight of Yerxas wagons, at-tached to as many horses, were waitingfor their respective loads for delivery

!when the steam roller, which had been!viewed with apprehersion by the!horses all day, began to emit moreithan the usual volume of steam. Thenone of the horses, none of whom werehitched, gave a wild neigh and went

j down the street on the jump. Thiswas the signal for the others, and allstarted away at a mad gallop fordifferent points of the compass. As aresult there soon was no room on Fifthjstreet and adjacent avenues for any-thing but runaways.

The runaway horses smashed othervehicles right and left and the wildestconfusion resulted. Pedestrians beganto get out of the way and all the police-|men in the neighborhood rushed to the

scene to quell the disturbance.All but two of Yerxa's horses were

stopped before a great amount of dam-age had been done, although two of thewagons were knocked out of shape toa considerable extent. Two horses withtheir wagons got away, however, andwent down Fifth street at a killingpace with a clear stretch before them.At last accounts they were still run-ning. Three or four vehicles, the own-ers of which could not be learned,were laid up for repairs because of col-lisions with the runaways. Luckily noone was injured.

ABOUT EVEN.

Flour Mills Are Grinding: More ThanThey Were Last Year.

There was a slight decrease in the outputlast week, the quantity turned out being249,540 bbts. against 254,505 bbls the precedingweek, and 216,680 bbls a year ago

—says the

Miller. The same number of mills are run-ning as was a week ago, one mill of smallcapacity having shut down and a larger onehaving started. There is likely to be a slight-ly larger production next week, as one moremill will be added to the active list tomor-row. The water power is good, but not suf-ficient to keep all of the mills going withwater, and two are using part steam. Salesof flour were the largest for three weeks, ap-proximating 400.000 bbls

—more than double

those of the week before. The 2c drop inthe price of wheat made this business possi-ble. While the bulk of these sales were fordomestic markets, foreign bids were stim-ulated, and very satisfactory sales were of-fered. Some foreign offers are too low foracceptance, being 6d out of line for patentand 3d for clear. The sales of patent andclear abroad were about equally divided. Thedomestic trade shows a disposition to takehold at present low prices, and good lots ofpatent and clear were disposed of. Low gradeis hard to sell, and what is disposed cf goesat a reduced range. Feed is still tendingdownward. Sales are very slow, and pricesobtained are unsatisfactory.

North Dakota Normals Have Fundsto Start in the Year With.

BISMARCK, N. D., Aug. 20.—Thestate normal school board is in session ;here this week, and will take actionwith reference to the approval of thefaculties chosen for the year. Whilethese schools have received no appro- jpriation from the state for the past !two years, their operation comes under ithe control of the state board and any jaction must be approved by them.

The two schools have been kept openthe past year through local effortslargely. The Mayville school, repre-sented by President Thomas Harrison,comes before the board with $2,700 incash to guarantee the salary of thefaculty for the first term, and the Val-ley City school, represented by Prcsi- \dent. Wright, has pledges of a sufficient !amount to operate until the legislature jmeets. The Mayville school, at the jclose of the last school year, notwith-standing the absence of a state ap- jpropriation, found itself with aboutthirty-five hundred dollars in the jtreasury

These two institutions are amongthose of which the appropriation was |vetoed by Gov. Allin, owing to lack offunds in the treasury, and has, ofcourse, experienced some hardship bylack of state appropriations. It is the iintent of both institutions, however, !to ask from the next legislature an ap-propriation based only upon actualnecessities.
