Boys TO Get Together.

San Francisco, Nov. 26.-An address
has been issued from the office in this

now more than four years since the
Fifth army corps and its reinforce
ments achieved the-conquest of Santiago
and compelled the surrender of its gal
liant defenders
Owing to the active field operations
of a large portion of the United States
army on foreign service. it has been i'm
practicable thus far to call the society
together in a national convention but
through the assistance and gallantry of
our troops, tranquility finally has been
and conditions seem now to favor the.
realization of our long cherished desire
for happy reunion 1t is hoped that
all who participated IN the Santiago
campaign, whether members of the So
ciety or not will be able to assemble
with us and participate in a grand re-
view and parade and other festivities
of the occasion. No date has yet been
definitely decided upon, but it is thought
that July II. 1903. the fifth anniversary
of General Tora1's surrender will be ap-
propriate. and the council have accord
ingly empowered me to appoint the
necessary committees to definitely fix
the date and place and to arrange other

TURKEY ORDERS GUNS.
Preparations for Serious Trou-
BILE Which is Expected.

Constantinople. Nov. 26.-Sixteen bat
teries of quick firing field guns, NUM-

from the KrupD works as the conf

is authorized to purchase 220, 900 small
calibre Mausers to complete the present
establishment With wagons and am
munition for the artillery the orders en-
tail an outlay of s.. $50. 900.
The purchases apparently were accele-
rated because of the recent develeD-
ments in the situation in Macedonia and
the Balkans and the impression prevail
ing in many quarters here that a serious
outbreak possibly leading to widespread
complications, may be expected in the
spring.

COUNTY FIGHT AGAIN.

Minot Reporter: 1t is understood
that the proposition to create the
county of Renville will be submitted
at the next Legislature. 1t will be
fought to a finish by Ward and Bot
tineau counties from which 1T is pro-
posed to take the territory. For
sometime the people living in that dis
puted territory have claimed that old
Renville county is properly organized.
The result of the case will be watched
very closely all over the state as there
is a point involved which will have
some bearing on other counties which
are proposed. The people living in
the territory have placed the case in
the hands of am attorney who will
bring it UP before the next term of the
supreme court. This will not hinder
the legislature acting upon it.

PRISONER ROSS SENTENCED TO
BE HANGED IN BOTTINEAU
THROWS LIGHT ON ANOTHER
MURDER.
A Williston dispatch says: Willis
ton people are again excited over the
arrest of an alleged murderer. SHEER
If Billy Carroll Of Ward county came
to Williston Wednesday evening and
In company with Sheriff James Heffer-
man crossed the Missouri river and ar
rested Carl Hanson and his brother.
The facts leading to the arrest OF Han
son are these: A few days ago Billy
Ross, who is to be hanged at Bottineau
Dec. 5, for the murder of a man last
summer, confessed to a priest and later
on to Sheriff Nelson of Bottineau. He
stated that they would find a dead man
in a well about five miles south of
Tagus. A year ago in November Ro.s
and Hanson were working for Ed Ty-
gason about six miles from Tagus, N.
D. One day while they were round
ing up, Hanson and Ross met a man
named Alfonz Lamay from the Turtle
Mountains who was in camp about five
miles west Of Tygason's place. Lamay
had three horses. The two men tried
TO trade for the horses. Lamay re-
fused to trade, w%hereupon Hanson shot
him twice and then put his lariat about
his feet and dragged him about thirty
rods to an old we'll and threw him in.
They covered up the body and Ross
took two horses, the wagon and $40
and Hanson took one horse and $40.
Tuesday Sherifs Carroll of Ward and
Nelson of Bottineau went out to Tagus
and found the body in a four foot we'll,
exactly where Ross had designated.
The cap, and fur overcoat had pro-
tected the body. A new rancher had
bought the place and dug a we'll only a
few feet AWAY. Some Of the dirt had
rolled into the old we'll and helped to
cover the body deeper. No one was
living at the place when the crime was
committed. 81
Hanson denied all knowledge of the
crime. He had only lately moved
here from Ward county. He has an
aged mother and brother here with
him. Sheriff Carroll left for Minot
last might with his prisoner.
The brother is not supposed to be
implicated. .
