spotter Sent to Jail.

JAMESTOWN, N. D.. July IL
Carl Burns, an Enforcement league
spotter, was arrested and jailed yester-
day, in default of $3.50 bonds, chars ed
with carrying concealed weapons. Burns
has been boarding with an Enforcement
league man named Shain. Six weeks
board was due Shain claims, and he was
anxious to secure payment. They had
little trouble over some other matters
and Shain decided to throw Burns out.
He seized a poker and was about to do
something, when Burns threatened him
with a revolver. Shain complained, and
Burns was arrested.
There is considerable excitement among
Enforcement league members, and efforts
are being made to secure the release of
Burns. Burns has been in jamestown for
several weeks and with two other young
fellows claimed to have secured evidence
against eight places where liquor is sold.
They drank up the liquor secured, how
ever, and are not able ITO bring a case
against any of the alleged law violators.
Segerson, another member of the spot
ter trio, has left jamestown and will be
arrested on his return on a serious charge
made by a reputable citiz n Many strong
temperance people are indignant that the
Enforcement league should send such men
out.

West SuperiOrites Fear That Their
City May BE Guaranteed.

City May lie QuaFant1ned.
WEST SUPERIOR, Wis, July u.-By
the decision of Attorney General Hicks
and Gov LaFollette in regard to the
contingency fund for smallpox cpl
denies, Superior is out almost $1,000
spent in taking care of patients that
came to this city from outside points.
The city took care of the patients in the
belief that the state would help it out
and had assurances from the state
board of health and the governor to this
effect. The attorney general says, how
ever, that the state cannot reimburse
for moneys spent, but can pay to help
stamp out the disease in the future 1t
is expected the board will come here at
once and look the ground over with
view to taking it's share upon itself.
Superior has had in the neighborhood
of 400 cases in the asst eight months OF
so and is now making am effort to have
something done by the state. If the dis
ease grows worse, as every physician
in the country believes it will it is
feared the town will be quarantined.
There seems to be no doubt that the
disease is growing worse. In one house
at South Superior six people, the entire
family, have it, while the isolation hos
pital is well filled all of the time. Pic
lures have been taken of different pa
tients at the pest house and these show
that the latest patients have been affect
ed much worse than others. A general
run in a deadly form Is expected.

Indicted for Taking Bride.

Fred Coffin, captain of the mounted
police, was arraigned yesterday before
Judge Elliott on charge of asking a
bride. He pleaded not guilty. and bond
was fixed at $500, which was at once
furnished. Mrs. John Fitchette, wife of
another police captain, is the surety.
The complainant is Louisa Schubert and
the offense is alleged to have been com
mitted June 20, at Mipnehaha Falls. The
Indictment sets forth that the complainant
was engaged in the sale of Intoxicating
liquors and that Coffin went to her and
demanded 500 in consideration of pro-
tecting her from the enforcement of the
municipal or state liquors laws.
In testifying before the grand jury, one
of the witnesses swore that Coffin OBJ
tanned the money, while another was not
certain as to that point.
Capt. Coffin has served on the police
force in various capacities for number
of years, and some years ago was dis
missed by Mayor Eustis. He is an Ames

WILL NOT BE FREED THIS WEEK.
Meantime They Are at Work as
Usual

SALTWATER, Mimi, July 1l.-(Spe-
clal.)-That Cole and James Younger viii
not be liberated from prison this week
is the positive statement of Warden
Henry Wolfer, but he refuses absolutely
to tell anyone when they are to go. He
said this morning that under no consid-
GRAFTON whatever would the hour of
their departure be divulged to anyone,
and his intention Is to get them out of
prison secretly, even thought it becomes
necessary for him to take them over the
prison walls by means of ladders in the
dead of night. He is fully determined
in this matter and adds that he will 90
his utmost to keep this bit of intelligence
away from the newspaper reporters for
the purpose Of having the Youngers
evade as much publicity and notoriety as
possible. Warden Wolfer says that this
is the desire of the board of pardons,
members of the board Of prison man
ayers and the Youngers themselves, who
are anxious to be relieved from further
newspaper interviews and stories.
Warden Wolfer also says that the en-
ployment that will be selected for the
Youngers will not be made known and
that they will be quietly taken from the
prison to their place of employment
without any noise or hustle. He would
not state how many offers of employ
ment have been received, but said:
''Well, there are a great many"
There was absolutely nothing in the
conduct of the Younger boys today to
indicate that they stand upon the
threshold of freedom. When the gong
sounded this morning they were up as
usual and in a few minutes were at
tending to their duties as if nothing had
happened to them. Cole was busy about
the hospital and Jim took care of his
mail deliveries and the library work.
Both continue to pay strict attention to
prison rules and will do so up to the
minute they are released. 1t is believed
by some that the Youngers will not be
made acquainted with the time wnen
they are to go until shortly before they
are permitted to don their new citizens
clothing
