CHARGED WITH B|GAMY
Charles o. Hanson Married to Caroline
swenson, Who Already Has
a Husband.
Martin ]. scogland Of Minneapolis Has
a Kick Coming on This Sec
ond Alliance.
Both Parties to the Case Arrested and
Brought to the City Thursday
Afternoon.
For. Biqamy.

Charles 0. Hanson, formerly clerk Of
court of this county, and his wife, to
whom he was married but a few days
ago, were arrested Thursday on a warrant
charging them with bigamy. The com
plant in the case was sworn out by
Martin P. Scogland of Minneapolis, who
is, according to his W story and legal
evidence in the shape Of a marriage GER
~tiicate, the lawful husband of the
woman who was married to Hanson
under the name of Caroline Swenson.
Hanson was brought to the city by w.
b. Livermore about 2 o'clock Thursday
afternoon, and the woman in the case was
brought in by Sheriff Taylor.
The whole case is a peculiar one. and
inexplicable to those who know the
persons concerned. Scogland was one
of the carpenters who came up from
Minneapolis to work on the capitol ad-
dition last fall. While here he met Caro-
line Swenson, and they were married in
Mandan just before he left for Minnea-
polls. He says he gave her money to the
extent of 500, and was to prepare a
home for her in Minneapolis. He has
been in correspondence with her and but
short time ago arrangements were COM
pleted for her to go to him there. She
failed to come, and yesterday morning
he came in from there to meet her, and
take her back with him. He discovered
upon her arrival here that she had been
regularly joined in marriage a second
time to Charles 0. Hanson, and he
at once laid the the matter before the
authorities, and warrants were sworn
out for the arrest of the two. The cere-
mony which purported to join Hanson
and Miss Swenson was performed by
Rev. Spangberg but a few days before
Scogland's arrival, and the certificate
was returned to the county judge only
yesterday.
1t is difficult to conceive what induced
the woman to contract the second cere-
mony while already married. Mr.. Han
son is we'll known in the county as an
honest and industrious farmer, and the
affair, which is a serious one, is to be
regretted. The two were brought be-
fore Justice Tibbils in the afternoon and
a time fixed for a hearing of the case.
Hanson was admitted to bail in the
sumof 500 to appear on Saturday next.
The other case will be heard Tuesday.

SCHOOL NOTES.
Items Of Interest from the High Schools,

Items Of Interest from the High Schools,
and Notes Of Their Progress.
The board of education has ordered a
set of the International Encyclopedia
for the use of the schools. This is the
latest and best published.
Two sets of the Ideal Music Charts
have been ordered for the use of the pri-
mary grades, also a dozen newspaper
files for the purpose Of keeping some Of
the daily papers on hand for the use of
pupils in the higher grades.
Several of the pupils have been pro-
noted to higher grades in the past week.
The upper grades are gradually filling
up. The policy is to relieve the lower
grades as much as possible.
The report Of pupils work for the first
two months will be made out next week
and sent to the parents for inspection.
The boys of the three upper rooms are
fitting up a gymnasium in the basement,
on which to work off surplus energy.
Glasses in geography, English gram
mar and physiology are preparing for
university examinations on these sub
jects next month. Pupils failing in any
one of them will be required to take the
study with the next lower class.
A committee is preparing a constitu-
ton and bylaws for the purpose of or
ganizing a literary society in the high
school. A regular program will be pre-
sented every Friday afternoon. This
will constitute the rhetorical work of
the upper grades.
Superintendent Moore is at work on a
course of study which will be printed,
and all pupils will be obliged to pursue it.
There are a few isolated cases of scar
letina, but there has been no epidemic.
The school officials have been vigilant
in quarantining any cases occurring in
the schools.
The use of the slate and slate pencils
is injurious to the eyesight. It is also
filthy and a means of spreading disease,
and it is to be banished from the schools
AS it has been in all progressive schools.
Lead pencils and paper will be substi
tuted in the lower grades where the
states are used.

LUCK OF THE TRIP.
Party of Spiritualists Who Went West
After Gold Have Quit.

Ill.,. <aILSI IOAu nave Qu1L.
Some time ago, the TRIBUNE chroni-
cled the passing through the city of
three spiritualists, who we're following
the, lead of the spirit westward, to find
a lost gold mine. One of them was
a quite wealthy woman from Mime
apolis, and appearances indicated that
the other two were industriously en-
gagged in pulling her leg, as it were.
The party appears to have abandoned
its quest, for the Fargo Forum y
"Mrs. H. Nix is here today on her way
east. Some months ago she was here
with Mrs. Holland, and they drove west.
At Steele and Bismarck there was some
trouble in regard to financial matters,
and when Montana was reached Mrs.
Holland returned to Minneapolis "after
funds" but they were not sent. Mrs.
Nix secured some aid in Montana, and
is now trying to get to Chicago, where
she has friends. She is also DESTROYS of
securing her trunk, which is stored
somewhere. Mrs. Nix believes she has
had enough experience of this kind, as
she broke up a well furnished home in
Chicago to go off on this trip, and is
10Y left penniless, "

A BLACKMAILER.

One of the Enforcement League Spoilers
in Bismarck, an Admirable Character.
Fargo Argus: J.. Chester Bell, whose
name was linked with a counterfeit deal
some time ago, but who has been more
recently associating himself with illicit
retailers Of beer and whiskey, which has
come to be vulgarly dubbed blind pig
gerry, has completely fallen from grace,
if all reports are true. Bismarck proved
a trifle too warm for the embryo detec-
tive and SO he has shifted his scene of
operations to the more congenial envi-
ronments of this city. Here he is evil
IDENTIFY trying to cut his name deep into
the; heart of history. Whether he will
eventually succeed cannot be determined
but he has begun a campaign which will
bring to him unenviable notoriety if he
persists. The latest comes from Chief
of Police Barnes, who AYERS that j..
Chester Bell is Matchmaking. He states
that two of the proprietors of houses Of
designation made complaint to him yes
terday that Bell attempted to persuade
them to give him collateral sufficient
in an amount to guarantee protection.
They did not fall in with his brilliant,
but not visionary scheme, for they do
say whatever Bell is, he is not visionary.
1t is alleged that the amateur detective
called upon Madame Massey and said
he had a great mind to close all the
other disreputable houses and leave her
place open provided she would make the
trouble worth the while, It ID alleged
that Bell said 800 would be needed to
bring about such a state Of things. The
madame turned pale, she said, and then
notified the police. TIL is also said that
Bell approached a woman call Peart
and made her the same proposition only
the figure was a trife lower. It is
charged that he asked only 500
but this he did not get. Chief Barnes
is busy investigating the charges.

CASE DISMISSED.

The Case of Charles o. Hanson Dis
missed in Justice Court Saturday.
The case of Charles 0. Hanson was
dismissed by Justice Tibbils Saturday. At
the time set for hearing, State Attorney
Allen said he had investigated the mat
ter as thoroughly as possible, and that
there was no evidence that MI. Hanson
had been guilty of any intentional wrong
in the matter. Accordingly the case was
dismissed, and Mr.. Hanson discharged
from custody.

Prosecuting Witness in the Bigamy
Case Fails to Respond.

Prosecuting Witness in the Bigamy
Case Fails to Respond.
The case against Caroline Swenson
for bigamy came up for hearing before
Justice Tibbils Tuesday. Owing to
the fact that the defendant in the action
vas all but ill, as a result of the events
of the past few days, the hearing was
adjourned from the Justices office to the
court room, which is contiguous to the
jail, and easier of access by the defend
ant. When the cast was called, Martin
P. Scogland, the prosecuting witness,
who made the complaint in the case
failed to respond. A subpoena was is
sued for Scogland by the states attor-
ney Tuesday, he having heard a rumor
circulated that Scogland had left the
city. Sheriff Taylor returned the sub
poena, saying that he was unable
to find Scogland, and that, from what
he could learn, the man had left the city
Sunday morning, and was out of the
jurisdiction Of the court. This being
the case, Attorney Allen said that it
would be impossible to make out a case
against the defendant without the prose-
cutting witness to substantiate the alleg-
atoms which had been made, and the
case was dismissed by the justice.
It is said that Scogland went back to
Minneapolis-did not want to appear in
court against the woman to whom he
was married-and 8 left town quietly
to avoid it. The result will probably be
generally satisfactory, as it is doubtful

Among the features of the second day
was the speech of Miss Emma F. Bates,
state superintendent of public %instruc-
ton, on "Civilization's Evolution"
The subject was we'll handled by Miss
Bates, who held the attention of the
audience from beginning to end.
She spoke of the progress of civiliza-
ton in h last few years, and predicted
great things for the suffrage movement
in the years to come. A number of the
ladies present joined the association,
and the convention closed after a pleas
ant meeting. The members feel much
pleased over the first state convention
and think it was the means of interesting
many in the movement who have hith-
erto given the matter but little consider
alton. The next convention will be held
next November, but the date and place
of holding it has not been decided upon.

SELLING BOOZE.
Fort Yates Man Arrested for Selling It
to the Red Man.

to the Red Man.
Deputy Marshal w. B. Livermore re-
turned Tuesday morning from Fort Yates
where he went to arrest Dayton Stewart,
who has been smuggling booze across
the river to the reservation and dispens-
ing it to the Indians. Agent Cramsie
filed a complaint against Stewart with
United States Commissioner Shaw at
Mandan, and Stewart was placed in jail
in default of $500 bonds, for a hearing
or Tuesday next.
A peculiar feature of the trip is that
Mr.. Livermore took with him a driver
from Mandan, who tanked up with bad
booze at Yates, and entered the officers
quarters, raising Cain generally. He
was taken in charge and placed in the
guard house, and the marshal had to
come away without him.

A Forgotten Certificate Of Deposit
Paid After Some Twenty Years.

Paid After Some Twenty Years.
One Of Harvey Harris business eli
ents brought to him the other day a GER
tifcate of deposit which had been issued
by a Sioux City bank early in 1873. The
certificate had been originally for 800,
and several payments had been indorsed
upon it, %aggregating in all SIT. The GER
tifcate had lain among some old papers
for years, it being supposed to have been
paid in full, and when it was found only
SIT had been paid, it vas placed in the
bank here for collection. A day or two
ago returns were received for it of seven
dollars and some cents, the interest
amounting to over 81, or more than the
original balance due upon it.

The Wheat CroD.

Duluth grain buyers have after care

wheat per acre in North Dakota at 2l.s
bushels. This would make the total
yield for the state 65,814,OOO bushels.
The total yield for the three states is
placed at 16s, 100000 bushels. It is
estimated that in North Dakota about
46 per cent of the crop has been mar
keted. .

The farmers in the neighborhood of
Leeds, want the Northern Pacific to ex-
tend their road from Leeds, in Benson
county, to Bisbee, in Towner county, on
the Great Northern. AS an inducement
they offer to furnish the right-of-way
and grade the road bed for that distance.
It is not unlikely that the road will be
built, as it would give the N. P. a valu-
able feeder in a heavy wheat producing
section. Many of the farmers there are
hauling their wheat long distances in
order to reach the Northern Pacific,
where cars are more plentiful.
There is good field in the state for a

much from those in the older states,

use to a farmer in North Dakota and
