In the binding blizzard of Tuesday
afternoon last week the wife of Rev. E..
Scherf, Lutheren pastor at Arndt,
perished within a quarter of mile of her
home, located but few miles west of the
line which borders Towner and Cavalier
counties. In the mo. ming Mrs. Scherf
left home to visit her parents who live
only quarter of mile from her home
near Arndt. Rev Scherf was attending
to his duties at Cecil, in the western
part of the county and the wife was alone
to do the chores She renamed at her
parents until four o'clock in the after
noon when she started for home SO as to
do the necessary work before night.
There was we'll Travelled road leading
to her home, but she selected path

She had but a short distance to 20 to

for when found she had wandered half q
mile south. Her course was south in

she must have passed within a short

proved her last.

Fremont school district, Cavalier
county, has adopted worthy plan to
giving her children winter school with
out the expense of teacher. The state
tuition fund, which falls to their share is
used for paying the tuition of any scholars
between the ages of fourteen and twenty
who desire to attend school in Walhalla
during the winter months--in summer
they hire teacher and run their own
school. The plan is being taken ad-
vantage Of by quite a number, and is
accepted for the best. The little ones
who can go in summer could not attend

The monotony which has so long ex-
listed in police circles, at least had small
sized revival, and last night the police of
Crookston harbored three guests at the
city lookup. The first one to arrive was
"Scotch Nell," who was found on the
strs cts about five o'clock with twenty
seven dollar jag on and completely desti-
tute. "Nellie" had been released from
the county Jail a few hours previous,
after serving ten days sentence for
drunkenness, and this event made her
feel so glad that she had to fill up on it.
Judge Mclean this afternoon heard her
case and decided that the best thing TO
do with her was to send her out of town.
Accordingly she was a passenger for
Moorhead or Fargo on the evening
