Miners are Scarce.

The Ignite coal men of this state
are making extraordinary prepare

posed there will be for Ignite coal in
view of the shortage of the anthra-

are laboring under is the shortage of
miners. Big wages are being offered,
but every mine in the state is report

good chance for some of the Pennsyl-
vania miners to get a good homestead
before the public land is all taken up.

NORTH DAKOTA NEWS
Moro Hail.

Two hailstorms in the Red River
valley cut thousands of acres of grain
even with the ground. The townships
of Tabor, keystone and Fanny in
Grand Forks county, were hit the
hardest, and strip several miles in
width was totally ruined. Scores of
the farmers have lost every acre of
wheat they had. Farther east there
was some hail. but the loss was not
total in that direction. The storm on
the Dakota side was severe one, but
the damage by hail as far as heard
from did not amount to more than
from 10 to 20 per cent. The country
between Beans siding and Arvilla was
hit and it is also reported that strip
south of Arvilla suffered. In East
Grand Forks the livery stable of
George Salisbury was struck and ev-
cry horse in the barn dropped to the
floor as though shot down. They were
simply shocked however. Aside from
the damage done by hail, the heavy
rain and wind did more or less harm
to the crops, especially where they.
were heavy.
Held Up.
Leon Gentle and Emil Y'Dean were
held up in the jamestown railroad
yards Thursday night and relieved of
about $40 and a watch and ring. Both
had been working at the asylum and
quit to go west, Mr.. Y'Dean to his
home at Medina. Gentle walked down
in the railroad yards with him about
midnight and they were talking near
the yardmaster's Office when the hold
up occurred. Gentle was sitting in the
doorway of car while Y'Dean was
standing on the ground when two
men approached one wearing a
handkerchief over his face. Mr.. Cen
tie gently passed over $22 and his
watch, all he had except IS cents in
his vest pocket. and Mr.. Y'Dean dug
up about $17 and SIS ring. They were
then put in the car and locked up
where they remained for an hour or
more before being released by yard
men.
