BRASS THIEF SENTENCED.
Notorious Abe HyattGiven Two Years
in Penitentiary.

Topeka boys who have started on the
downward path by stealing wire, brass,
and other junk, have an object lesson
in the person of Abe Hyatt, who
started in the same way. Hyatt is a
coIored youth who limited his thefts
to small articles until about two months
ago. He probably did not intend to
take anything of great value then, but
the piece of brass which he took hap
pened to be an air valve belonging to
the Santa Fe, and it was valued at
SIPS.
For this theft, which constituted
grand larceny, Judge Hazen has SEN
fenced Hyatt to two years in the peni-
tertiary, where he will have time to
reflect over the evil of his ways.

report from a special committee on
the advisability OF lowering the
dam in the Mississippi river at this
point. Four or'flve years ago, after

manner indicated.

LIQUOR SHIPMENTS.

The Great Northern and
Northern Pacific express com:
panies have enforced a new rule
with reference to the shipment
of liquor packages to North
Dakota points. It appears that
the custom has prevailed among
liquor men, more especially at
st. Paul, Minneapolis, Rock Is
land, Peoria and other places,
of shipping quantities of liquor
in small packages, consigned to
themselves, to the different
stations throughout North d.
kota, with private instructions
to the express agents to deliver
to applicants on receipt of the
price, and on giving a receipt
for the goods, giving said
agents a liberal commission for
handling the business. This
practice has made a. veritable
saloon, or at least liquor dis
tributing place of all the sta
tions, and the companies have
determined to break it up. It
won't materially effect the
liquor dealers of Moorhead, as
they have not engaged in this
method of business extensively.
It is understood that the order
and change of practice does not
effect bona fde orders for bev-
erages but only the G. O. D.
business as above explained.
The Moorhead wholesalers seem
to be pleased at the change as
they believe it will shut out the
dealers in the cities further east:
