Windsor Growing.

Another Stutsman county town is
showing the evidences of improve
ment noted all over the county. With
the advent of the Powers elevator and
lumber business, and the increase in
the sales Of land have begun the ma
tural improvements that follow for
those doing businesslin the town. A
new house has been built for Mr..
Parkhurst the elevator agent, also a
new residence for Frank Kellogg the
enterprisingreal estate man, and is "a
neat and we'll constructed residence.
A blacksmith shop will be opened by a
Mr.. Thompson and a house will proba-
bly, be built by Mr.. Clothier the old
time merchant, and the second floor
of the store building used as lodge
room for the Woodmen. Windsor is
in the center of d good stock and farm
neighborhood and IS well located for a
thriving trade.

No Indictment.

The mystery concerning the robbery
of mail pouch at Harvey seems to be
as far from solution as ever. Ex-Post-
master Wieland, who was in charge OF
the Harvey office at the time the s3,'
900 package was stolen, testified IN
the case before the grand jury at
Fargo recently.
No indictment was found against
the manCSoule, who was suspicioned
of having committed uhe robbery OF
the money package while the mail
pouch was in the possession OF the
railroad company, though a jeweler at
Harvey testified that he made a mail
pouch key for Soule, and the day after
the robbery Soule told the Jeweler
that the key worked like a charm. y
Soule, the man in question, was
readmaster of the 500 from Harvey to
Portal at that time, but since the rob-
berry all traces of him seems to have
been lost. though some of the officers
claim they can lay their hands on him
at any time.
Some are of the opinion that the Of
hcers may have an idea that Soule
will come back when he finds there is
no Indictment against him and that
he will then be arrested and new evi-
dence brought out.

PROMISING CROPS
Immense Growth of Grain and Feed
Crops Everywhere lin James
River Valley.
Specimens of Growing Grain of Un-
usual Length and Fine
Heads.
Conditions are Such that 0ldtimers
in the State Predict a Bum
per Yield.

The country in the James River
valley never looked finer, greener OF
| the crops more promising than they
do at present. The grasson the bluffs
is heavier than it has been for mum.
ber Of years and the coolies bear
thick mat OF grass that can be moved
and immense quantities OF hay Sc
cured. On the level prairie the hay
can be cut almost anywhere and this
hay will take the place of the meadows
that in nearly all localities are full OF
water, where wild fowl are breeding.
1t reminds all the old timers of the
seasons in the early eighties when
such great crops of wheat and grain
were raised. The season promises to
be duplicate Of the year 1882 in the
matter of crops.
The growth of grain is surprising
Notwithstanding that the weather
keeps cool and the dry days of the
past week have greatly added to the
advancement of the crops.
Specimens Of growing grain are seen
to be of unusual length with fine
heads. On B. w. Fuller's river land
north of the city specimens OF timothy
feet high, broom grass A feet in
length and of speltz nearly 6 feet high
are to be seen. The yield promises to
be very large if no unusual drawback
occurs between this time and harvest
Corn on low grown suffered a little
from the frost of June % but will
come on all right although it may be
set back somewhat. Wheat in all
parts of the county looks we'll and
gives indications of making an old
fashioned yield. This is the condi-
tion in this county at the present
time. and reports from other counties
in the James valley and the Missouri
slop are Of the same tenor.
In the Red river valley conditions
are rapidly improving and the Hun
ter Herald says the weather for a week
or more has been almost ideal for
growing crops and unless something
like grass hoppels do serious damage,
a bumper crop can oe expected. The
recuperative qualities and the
strength of the famous North Dakota
soil will be seen to then greatest ad-
vantage this year unless all indlca-
tiOnS fail.

Two More Deaths.

Two more deaths have resulted from
the wreck which occurred early Fri
day morning near Staples and the list
of fatalities is probably at an end.
The injured who were removed to the
hospital at Brainerd are reported as
doing nicely with the exception Of
Harvey thinner, Of Hammond, Ind,
and Fireman Montgomery, Of No. I.
thinner was a passenger on the train
and the only one badly injured. He
suffered internal injuries by being
thrown forcibly and the injuries to
his abdomen proved fatal, death en-
suing early Saturday morning. Fire
man Montgomery, who was drawing
the hood from the light on No. I when
No. 8 struck the engine, died Sat
urdaya at the hospital in Brainerd. 1t
was thought at first that he would
survive as he was thrown clear Of the
wreckage but a compound fracture Of
the thigh with complications caused
his death. The eight fatalities are
expected to complete the list of the
dead and the others are doing nicely.
The remains of Dan Kennedy, the
section hand killed in the wreck, were
taken through jamestown to Glad
stone for burial Saturday morning.
No cause has yet been determined
for the wreck. Only two explanations
suggested themselves. One was that
the forward brakeman of No. had
either made a mistake and turned the
west switch from the main line into
the siding, and that some one turned
it back after the wreck, or else it was
deliberately turned by some miscreant
who turned it back after the wreck
had occurred.

Hold=Up.

Conductor Tom Hatton and gang
of tourists came together Tuesday
evening about o'clock. Tom claims
they attempted to hold him up and
assaulted him with piece Of gas pipe.
He succeeded in wrestling the gas pipe
from one Of them and drove them off.
Mr.. Hatton captured two Of the
men single-handed before Officer Rus
sell arrived to assist him in the round
up. The men protested that they had
nothing to do with the affair.
Later in company with Officer Russell
he secured the arrest Of five men sup
posed to have been among the gang
who made the trouble. They were
held in Jail all night and in the morn
ing Mr.. Hatton decided that he could
not positively identify them. The
men were accordingly turned loose by
the authorities. There was consider
able excitement over the affair Tues
day evening. Conductor Hatton lost
nothing.

Robbery

"A bold and successful burglary was
accomplished in Fargo Tuesday night
or early Wednesday morning. The
store OF j. r. johnson in the johnson
plock was entered by thieves and about
500 worth of goods carried away, the
burglary being undiscovered until
Wednesday morning, when it came
Time TO open the store. The work Of
the burglars evidences superiority in
the manipulation of burglars tools
and the fact that people were con-
stantly passing the store, shows that
thelr movements We're made with care
ana betokened a knowledge of the
premises.
Entrance to the building was secur-
eel from the back door, which was
locked. the key being left on the in
side. The thieves with brace and
bit, made three holes close to each
| other in the panel of the door, where
The Key could be conveniently reached.
With the space left by the holes
piece OF the panel was broken out and
| 1t was an easy matter toreach through
and turn the key. Sixteen of the best
| revolvers in stock, eighteen shot guns
and twelve rifles were taken. They
did not molest the cutlery department..
From the presence of a winter coat,
which was IN the shop soaked with
water, it is thought they intended to
make forcible entry to the safe but
decided to be satisfied with their haul.
The coat belonged to Mr.. johnson.
The trains were carefully watched by
the Fargo police and it is thought
that the thieves cannot escape de-
lection. The weight Of the goods
must have been nearly 800 pounds and
a conveyance might have been used
n the transportation of the goods.
Wednesday afternoon while the
family OF Lou Gilbert. of Casselton,
were in attendance at the circus their
home was entered by two men who es-
cLped, taking with them all the sill
VarWare of value and a quantity of
j :welry, most of which belonged to the
young daughter of Mr.. Gilbert.
Special Officer Witcik met the Cir
chs train which arrived at Fargo at
:o5 this morning and placed fellow
who answered the description of one
Of theL LCasselton burglars under ar
rest. Deputy Sheriff Ross arrived
from Casselton and. While the fellow
tailed closely with the description,
he was not the wanted man and he
was released.

Never Looked Better.

Minot Optic: The flax is about all
in, and the crop never looked better at
this time of the year. The new set
tiers are all happy because they came
and are already making preparations
for using the money which they will
get from the bountiful harvest
North Dakota banks are borrowing
money in the east on the prospects of
the crop and this in itself is an indica-
tion the wiseacres also have confidence
in the prospects this year. We have
rains almost daily and the hay crop
will be immense. Each day moneyed
men step off the trains at this place
and inquire for the men who sell the
rich Ward county land. Not a day
passes but that several quarter sec
tions change hands at figures ranging
from 81 800 to s., 900 each. The money
will be doubled by another year.

Mix.Up

Ferle Fergus admitted today before
Justice Pearson that he had slugged
George Blake, pressman in the Alert
office. and was fined SIS and costs by
the court. 1t seems that Blake was
standing in front of the Capital hotel
talking to friend when Fergus came
along and after some remark knocked
his hat off. Later he struck at Blake
again, Blake defending himself.
Officer Dewey arrested both Of them.
Fergus stated in court that he had
been drinking and had no recollection
of striking Blake. He said he did not
know him at all. Fergus paid the
fine and costs.
Justice Pearson in tining Fergus
said that in view of the numerous af-
fairs of the kind lately he was disposed
to be severe in dealing with those
found guilty and hoped thereby to
prevent there being so much trouble.

y William Bennett Killed Himself and

They Had Conducted a Restaurant
in Valley City for Many
Years.
Bennett Leaves Widow and Several
Children and Was Sixty Years
of Age.

Valley City, N. D., June 20.-Wm.
Bennett shot Miss Jennie Daily last
night six times with revolver killing
her instantly and then committed
suicide.
Bennett wassixty years old and Miss
Daily fifty. They had conducted a
restaurant in Valley City for years.
! Bennett leaves a wife and children
No cause is assigned for his terrible
deed.
T, The coroner's jury brought in YER
= dict that Jennie Daley came to her
death by reason Of wounds inflicted by
William A. Bennett; also that Will
liam A. Bennett came to his death
from the effects Of bullet wound in
the head. Seven witnesses gave testi-
mony, but all were coroborative.
S. w. Pasco, Of Chicago, represent
ing the Criterion Theatre Co., was in
an adjoining room and testified that
he heard five shots in quick succession
!. then womans voice screaming and
Scrying: '.My God! My God! will no one
Gomez. Then he heard Bennett un-
load and reload the revolver and heard
him say: 'sYou have fooled with me
for the last time, !" followed by three
more shots, then all was quiet except
the man groaning and knowing that
he had inflicted injury upyn himself,
Mr.. Pasco hurried down stairs to the
street and gave an alarm.
William Bennett and Miss Jennie
Daley, under the firm name of Ben
nett & Daley, have been conducting a
restaurant and confectionery business
for about twelve years and prospered
! exceedingly WE'LL During The past
few wears there has been dissention,
however, and both have been in poor
health. The large number of regular
II, boarders noticed nothing Of an unus-
(ual nature at supper time, everything
beingin good order and all were wait
ed upon cOurteouSly. Z
It is learned now, from the help in
the house, that since Mr.. Bennett re-
turned from Fargo Monday evening,
he and Miss Daley have had frequent
quarrels, some of which almost reach
ed the fighting degree, but they did
not suppose for moment the dis
agreement would eliminate in such a
dreadful affair.
Mrs. Bennett, who has been in poor
! health for several years was prostrat-
ed, but is being carefully and con-
stantly attended by Dr.. Proctor and
nurses.
The body of Miss Daley shows her
to have been shot six times. Any one
Of three of the wounds would have
proved fatal, even though none of the
bullets passed through her body. One
shot fired must have missed her, as
eight we're fired, the last one taking
his own life.
After shooting at her five times,
thereby empuying his revolver, he re-
turned to the room occupied by him
self and wife across the hall-re-
= loaded the revolver, returned to her
room and fired twice more at her, then
placing the revolver muzzle to his
right temple fred the eighth time
Sand the bullet came out through the
left temple both arteries being severed.
The shooting occurred at Has.
Miss Daley died an hour later and Mr..
Bennett three hours afterward, being
unconscious all the time.
