LADIES MUSICAL QUARTET.
Third Return Engagement This Week of

Third Return Engagement This Week of
the Talented Ferguson Sisters.
The concert given Tuesday evening
at the Donovan Hall by the ladies of the
Philharmonic Concert Co., under the
auspices Of the Langdon Public Schools
and for the benefit of the school library
fund was attended by big audience,
standing room being at premium.
With single exception, the makeup of
the company is the same as on their
previous visit to our CITY couple of
years ago and the leading artists, the
Ferguson Sisters, have lost none of their
vocal talent and were greeted as heartily
as ever by their friends who have heard
them before. The program was of q
strictly high class and the numbers
repeatedly encored. The Philharmonic
ladies are always accorded a warm
welcome by the Langdon public and it is
pleasing to know that their visit here
this time has made quite substantial
addition to the school library fund.

LANGDoN GRAIN SHIPMENTS.

Total For October 535,75o Bushels-Four"
ffths Of it Barley.
Grain shipments from Langdon for
this season up to November let have
passed the half million bushel mark.
Figures furnished by Agent Shaw, Of the
at. Northern, show that 275 cars have
gone out of here since the present crop
began to como onto the market month
ago The movement of 535, $50 bushels
of grain from this one shipping point in
Cavalier county before freezing up is an
indication of the phenomenal crop that
is still to be handled. Fully four-fifths
Of the shipments. in actual figures, 49,.
500 bushels, consisted of barley, and
wheat and fax are placed at $4,000 and
52,25O bushels respectively. Elevator
men say themselves that the movement
of Cavalier county's crop has scarcely
begun, what has been marketed merely
being the surplus that farmers had on
hand after the granaries were filled to
overfowing. Now that the ground is
freezing up and teams are no longer on
the plow the hauling in of the crop will
be in order. Besides the half million
bushels shipped all six elevators are
filed to their utmost capacity and until
the existing car famine is relieved busi-
ness is at a standstill among the buyers
The quantity of grain that is still in the
hands of the farmers is unknown but
must be enormous. The wheat and
fax already on the market is mere
bagatel to what is to follow and it il
claimed that third of the barley croI
around here is still to be brought onto
the market.

WILL BE A GREAT EVENT.
This Years Catholic Fair VII be Better
Than Ever Before.

The outlook for the Catholic fair, which
opens next Tuesday at the Donovan Hall
is most promising, especially so from the
reports handed in by the executive com
m,ttee engaged in completing the ar.
raDgements. It is believed that the affair
will excel any of its predecessors in at
tendance. Meals will be served during
each of the three days that the fair con-
tinues and an attractive musical program
wall be provided for the twofirst evenings
The fair closes Thursday evening when
the prizes in the following popular vot.
ing contests will be awarded:
Gold Watch-Misses Bertha Dohmann
and Nellie Click.
Girls Doll-Misses Tillie Voll and
Blanch Barnett.e
Boys Pony-John McHugh and Colin
cCorquodale.
There will also be drawings for differ
ent articles of high value. Among
others an Oriental rug donated by j. B
Boyd and several ornamental and usefu
articles donated by the ladies.
In the bazaar booths the display
of needle work will be unusually attrac
tive and the admiration of the ladies viii
doubtless centre on the exquisite line o1
fine hankerchiefs, of fancy lace designs
rare and costly mites of dainty handi-
work, some even being sent over from
Limerick, Ireland, donated by the famous
McGarry sisters. 1t is needless to say
that these will be sold at fabulous
prices like the proverbial hot cakes.

SHORT CALENDAR.
Fifty Civil Cases for Trial at This Term
of Court all Unimportant.

The calendar for the November term
Of District Court is short one. The
court and jury cases all told number
only fifty. Judge Kneeshaw opened
court Tuesday for the disposition of such
cases as will not require the services of
the jurors. The jury cases are set for
trial about month later, Dec. 3, and
regular term, so arranged for the con-
venience of jurors, Judge Kneeshaw
realizing that ut this time few farmers
feel warranted in leaving their duties
to attend court. There arc no criminal
cases for trial and the few new cases on
the civil calendar are OF lttle importance
to the public generally.

"The climax of this period" says Mr..
Hicks twill most likely fall in the open

will be attended by very low barometer
and change to much warmer, followed
at first by general and heavy rains.
Later the rains will turn to q general

a real snow storm and blizzard over
northern parts OF the country"
