had given to lift the debt of the
church. A reception was given Mr.

Starving Is a Family Fad.

One of the most remarkable cases
of fasting that have come under the
observation of the Mercer county
physicians is that of Ollie Reimer, an
inmate at the Mercer almshouse at
Sharon, Pa. For eighteen months
she has refused to eat. In order to
save her life a rubber hose is in
serted through her mouth into her
stomach daily, and she is fed on milk.
Her mania is to starve herself. Her
mother starved herself to death in
the Warren hospital short time ago.

On last Friday night a meeting of
News office and from the enthusiasm
manifested it is certain that the boys
will succeed not only in getting to-
gether a good club, but that this year
base ball will be trumps in Forsyth.
There were Il dozen or fifteen presen,
and after the oh jet Of the meeting was
announced A. Buchanan was chosen
chairman. The first business to be
disposed Of was the selection of a man
ager and captain. f.. NJ. Huff was
selected to attend to the business af-
fairs Of the club and arrange the
schedule of games, and A. X. Sickler
unanimously chosen to captain the
team. After some discussion as TO
raising funds for the purpose of pur-
chasing bats, balls and liquidating
other EXPENSES incident to the game,
it was decided to have the manager
and captain act as IA finance committee
and solicit subscriptions among the
BUSINESS men and all interested in the
game. The matter of selecting play
ers was left to the judgment of Capt.
Sickler, and as there is considerable
untricd talent to select from he will
wait until the boys demonstrate by
practice what they can do before as
signing places. All ball players
whether they attended the meeting or
not, are requested to practice with
the crowd at 3 o'clock each afternoon.
1t is TO be hoped that the efforts of the
boys will receive the substantial en-
enlargement of the town as the pros
poets tor first class ball team are
brighter this year than ever before.
In addition to The players whose rec
ords are ;..feady known here, the
team will oe strengthened by the adj
dition Of Harry Wright, T. Butler, J.
l.. T.. aker, A. Butler and VERNE Bee
man, all veterans of the game. The
boys hope to pull off a game with

porter and a city editor who aren't up

other passed an interview with Cana

Conductor Hale, Engineer Wadding-
ham and Night Operator Johnson were
called to Glendive on No ! this morn
ing to account for a miss cue on the
road yesterday. No. 4, east bound,
due here a i x, was running three
hours late, No. l, west bound, due at
o:1S, was running about one hour late,
SO there was about one hour between
them. When No reached Miles City
the night operator in the confusion OF
selling tickets and and attending to
other duties in addition to telegraph
matters that falls to the lot of the
night operator here, gave the train
men orders that were intended for
another train instead of their own
and they likewise did not ndtice the
number on the orders. No. should
have been held here for No !, where
as the orders they received were to go
ahead. Fortunately the operator ut
Keogh had some little matter which
called him to the office that morning
and realizing that No. was soon due,
tagged No. down. The possible dis
aster avcrted by his presence of mind
can only be onjectured, as the half
hours run ahead of both trains would
have caused them to meet among the
bluffs west Of Keogh and they would
both be running TO make up time.
There are many curves in this part OF
the road, which follows the winding
of the river and into which the cars
would undoubtedly have been toppled
in case of collision. Engineer Wad-
bingham is noted for having saved his
train many times from certain de
struction had he been less vgilant,
but the incident shows how narrowly
railroad accidents are at times avert

Bud Finch has added another voca-
ton to his growing list of occupations.
His latest departure from the monoto-
ny of running a black smith shop, 1iv-
cry stable and sein ing catfish, is a
turn at safe cracking. Bud didn't
wear mask or carry Il dark lantern,
but performed the job in broad day
light under the eyes of the law and
by order of the court. When the APP
praisers of the Burns estate started in
on their work last Monday they found
that the safe containing papers and
money was securely locked and no
one knew the secret ofthe combination.
The only feasible plan of getting at
the contents was to either blow i. open
or have some mechanic chop his way
through the thick doors. AS, no one
claiming practical working knowledge
of the more professional methods could
be found, Bud Finch was sent for and
he tackled the more laborious way of
cutting the lock out. Turning the
safe on its side he ploughed a furrow
around the lock with cold chisel
and smashed the more brittle steel
bars with hammer. Inside of two
hours and half he opened up
the safe and revealed the contents un-
injured. Bud surprised himself with
his own ability as a craftsman as he
expected the job to take fully a day.

The little team of Shetlands belong

driver is a boy or IA 200 pound horse

stop as a team of scared mules. Last
