parants moved to Highland county, o.,

OF ten years she united with the Meth

not render the transaction fictitious.
II cannot be material whether the con-
tract is performed by the original par
ties or by others whom they have pro-
cured to perform it i'm their stead. >
J "But If the understanding and inten-
ton of both parties, at the time ofmak-
ing the contract was that they were
neither to perform it themselves nor to
procure Others to perform il for them,
or if by the like understanding either
party may elect before the time of per-
formance, not to perform his part, and
discharge himself by the payment of
the difference between the contract
price and the market price at the time
of exercising his option, or at the ma
turity of the contract, the transaction
is mere wager. The evidence
establishes, we think, with absolute
certainty, that Hamilton d Co., (the
assignors) did not intend to receive the
goods they purchased, but intended to
re-seu them before the day of delivery"

Frank Smith Commits Suicide.

The many friends of Frank Smith
We're shocked to learn last Thursday
that he had committed suicide at
jamestown Wednesday. Frank had
for the past year been working for
the Cuskelly Bros, who speak of him
as a faithful employe. He severed
his connection with the firm last
week and started on visit to his
parents in Minnesota, stopping ut
Mandan and Bismarck for few days
and all supposed he was at home un.
til the sad news was received of his
death. From the best information
obtainable we learn that he
shot himself with revolver while
at the Fifth Avenue Hotel in James.
town. When he left here it was his
intention to return in short time
with team and machinery for oper-
ating a valuable farm near here.
Frank was a young man of good char
acter, we'll liked by all his acquaint.
ances and was unmarried. He
seemed to be man of cheerful dis
position and why he should commit
the rash act that cut him off in the
prime of manhood is a mystery.
The sad news will be terrible blow
to his aged parents and only sister.
The Bad Lands Cow Boy speaks of
''gumbo grass" This is too good;
who ever heard of such thing be.
fore but a tenderfoot of the tender
est kind.
A large number of subscriptions
expired with our last issue and we
urge our friends to make prompt pay
ment for the coming year as it takes
money to run 4 newspaper and our
capital is limited.
