After the Gophers.

Some of the counties intend to take
advantage of the gopher law this year
and make an effort to eXterminate the
pests. Under an act passed by the
last legislative session the commits
sioners of any county are authorized
to levy tax not exceeding four mills
on the dollar of assessed valuation
upon all real estate in the county, the
proceeds of which shall be used for
promoting the destruction of the little
animals.
Some counties have offered boun-
ties for gopher tails and there were
big scandals, especially in Sargent
county, where some Of the offenders
wound up in the state penitentiary
for defrauding the officials. In a few
counties small tax is levied and the
auditor is instructed to purchase
strychnine in large quantities. This
is furnished to the farmers on appli-
cation. They plow fresh furrow
across the fields before vegetation
starts and drop corn, which has been
soaked in a strong strychnine solution,
in the burrows. The little pests do
great damage to the grain in some
sections OF the state. The southern
and central parts have suffered worst.

Supposed That the Shooting IS q
Result of an Accident to
Shotgun.

Fargo, N. D., April 6.-Word was
received last night from Blanchard,
Trail county, which told the story OF
frightful tragedy which occurred
near that town yesterday afternoon.
Charles Boercher, the l4-year-old son
OF Herman Borcheer shot and in
stantly killed his l0-year-old sister
and mortally wounded his brother
who was six years of age.
The shooting is thought to be the re-
suit Of accident, although the boy
Charles has disappeared and no par
ticulars of the affair can be learned.
The shooting occurred when the
father and mother were away from
home, and it is supposed that Charles
was cleaning his gun preparatory to
going goose hunting. The parents are
Frustrated with grief over the awful
affair and are making every effort to
find their missing son that he might
return and vindicate himself. The
six-year-old son who lies near Deaths
door is unable to give particulars as
yet, although it is hoped that he will
recover consciousness and tell about it.

out the principals knowing exactly
what was going on. The pair went to
Judge Bigelow's office accompanied by
youth named NowatZeck, who acted
as witness. They told the judge that
they wished to get married and gave
him. a letter of introduction from a
friend. In this letter it was stated
that the Judge would be doing the
proper thing if he would unite the
two loving souls whose thoughts were
but of matrimonial bliss.
The judge made out the license and
calling the pair before him asked
them the usual questions required in
marriage ceremony. After it was
all over the couple informed him that
they desired to be married by priest.
Judge Bigelow informed them that
they were already one and this infor-
nation greatly surprised them. They
finally recovered sufficiently toinquire
what could be done about it. The
Judge told them they could be married
over again if they SO desired.
AS they have not put in an appear
ance at the residence of Father Nc
Phee it is supposed that they have de-
cided that one ceremony is sufficient.

William Gerke Arrested on COMPLAINT
of Steward John Milstead
of the Asylum.
That Gerke Embezzled ia,
and Potatoes to Amount
of About 5000.
Tenant on MilSted's Farm and HAS
Had Good Reputation Here
tOf0re.

William Gerke of Eldridge was ar
raigned in Judge Pearson's court to-
day charged with embezzlement. The
hearing was continued ito Monday
April Is. The complainant in the
case is Steward John Milstead of the
asylum who alleges that the defendant
embezzled hay to the amount of 25
tons valued at $175 and 40 bushels OF
potatoes.
Gerke is a tenant on the farm of
Steward Milstead and it is alleged
that the hay and potatoes, the prop
erty of Milstead, we're appropriated to
the use Of Gerke. Gerke however re-
lates different story.
The defendant has hitherto had a
very good reputation as an Industrious
German. He was released, bail being
in the sum of 5000.

FOUR BURIED IN one GRAVE
Bodies of Three SegerIcn Children
and Their Demented Father
Inferred.

Devils Lake, n. D., April seldom
such sad spectacle occurs as was wit
messed here in the burial Of the three
murdered little Segerlen children.
Scant sympathy is expressed for the
father, though his deed was that of an
insane man. The mother. an invalid
unable to walk, is nearly crazed with
grief and fears are expressed for her
future acts. The funeral services were
conducted from the Methodist church
by Rev. j. NJ. NJ lrcheson. The father
and his three children were buried in
the same grave. Investigation shows
that he had struck each Of the child
rem in the head with hammer and
had also inflicted knife wounds on
each. After their death he placed
them side by side in a stall cleanly
bedded, stood in position so he would
fall near them, then half severed his
head from his body with the same
knife that he had used on his children.

and they check up the returns of the
conductors. No other road in this
section is similarly equipped, and to
these exchangers the conductors offer
no protest. But recently the manage
ment created what are called train
collectors. There are two of them.
They also board the train at any point
which suits their convenience and
take charge OF affairs. The conductor
is obliged to accompany them through
the coaches, explain the hat slips and
show up the tickets besides. The con-
ductors complain about being humilat-
ed, and in the four months the cOllec-
tors have been operating it is claimed
that not one conductor has been
caught in wrong doing. This is but
one of number Of complaints which
they are making. A grievance COM
mittee will 60 to the Twin Cities soon,

Many Filings.

Devils Lake, N. D., April 5.-The
local land Office is being rushed par
ticularly hard at present, most Of the
filings being made by the new arrivals
from Missouri, Iowa and Indiana, by
the immigrants who arrived last week
by the train load. The filing is being
done mostly in Bottineau and McHen-
ny counties. During March at the
Devils Lake land Office 302 homestead
entries, embracing about $4,000 acres,
were made: also 149 cash proofs, %
final proofs, tree claim proofs. The
office also received upwards of $4,000
during March. This is undoubtedly
the largest amount of business trans
acted in any office in the United
States for March.
The March term OF court has ad-
journed after a continual grind of two
weeks. William Walsh, arrested
last Thursday charged with grand
larceny, was sentenced to one year in
the penitentiary. This was the only
prison sentence made at this term.

law in it's efforts to place restrictions
on the Missouri slope horse thieves.
The measure says it shall be unlawful
for any stock to be either shipped or
driven from one county to another
without permit from the stock in
spector. OF course the measure is alb
Surd, as it would prevent a StutSman
county from driving in a buggy across
the line and visiting brother farmer

Lisbon, n. d., April 9.-An explo-
sion occurred at Lisbon last evening
which might have resulted much more
seriously than it did had there been
large number Of people in the imme-
diate vicinity.
1t had been the purpose of the Cath
olic society Of the city to put on the
piece Turn of the Tide" last evening,
in the production of which it was nee
essary to use flash light.
Shortly before the doors of the op-
era house were opened it was thought
advisable to test the working of the
light to see if it was in perfect order.
AS result, through some unknown
cause, a terrific explosion occurred and
confusion reigned supreme.
When the flying debris had been
cleared away it was found that Rev.
Father Mcdonald of the local Catholic
church had been seriously injured,
having sustained broken arm, and
was otherwise shaken up. Miles
Moore was quite seriously injured by
flying slivers and Roy Severance was
rendered entirely deaf.
The explosion was heard for blocks
around. The injured were at once
cared for by local physicians and at a
late hour last evening were reported
as resting as comfortably as could be
expected.
