WEATHER MAKES
WHEAT NERVOUS
Seeding Is Delayed-Delay Will
Affect Acreage = Reports
From the valley

The dark and rainy weather makes
the grain trade a little nervous. Nu-
merous reports were in to-day from
the Red River valley regarding seed
ing prospects. The line elevator COM
panies believe that conditions will
right themselves before long, but a
somewhat backward start seems GER
tain. Wheat cannot be seeded for ten
days or two weeks in some localities
where the recent snow was heavy. The
situation Is such that week of the
right kind Of weather will make
things favorable, and a few days Of
bad weather will make the crop late.
What is feared now is the line
storms Of about the Goth, which may
bring heavy rains. Some Of the low
lands in the valley will not dry suffi-
GENTLY to permit of seeding before
April rs, even with dry weather in
the meantime.
Fargo says the last snow put more
moisture into the ground than all the
precipitation for almost two months
preceding, and that an early start is
not expected. There will be 20 per
cent more wheat sown around Fargo
if conditions permit.
Devils Lake has much wet land
tributary. Farmers had intended to
put in more wheat and less flax, but If
seeding is late they may change.
Neche, N. D., reports much old ice
and snow still on the ground in places,
and a warm period Is necessary to
enable farmers to get at their farm
work.
Grafton reports the outlook favor
able, considering the late excess of
snow, but seeding on the whole will
be little late in the vicinity.

GUNDERS SEES S, GOVERNOR
EMPLOYEE OF DUNN CAMPAIGN
BUREAU MAKES ACCUSATIONS
AGAINST PUBLIC EXAMINER,
WHO DISCHARGED HIM.

P. A. Gunders, formerly a deputy
in the public examiners office, called
on Governor Van SAINT this morning.
Gunders is the man who was dis
charged by Public Examiner Johnson
for irregularities discovered in his adj
ministration as county auditor of Blue
Earth county, and for giving a writ
ten opinion to r. C. Dunn, former
state auditor on the condition of his
records, which were still under ex-
animation. He has attracted some
attention since his dismissal by his
activity in behalf of Mr.. sDunn's cam
didacy for governor. IN
Neither Gunders nor the governor
had much to say about their confer
ence this morning, but it is understood
that Gunders made some complaints
against his former employer. He has
been working in the auditors office
for week past and has been over
hauling the public examiners expense
bills and those Of his employees. He
claims that some of the expense &C
counts put in for work on railroad
gross earnings and other department
work are larger than necessary.
The plan seems to be to pound
Johnson ard, by urging the governor
to remove him, to stir up a scandal
and discredit any results from the
examination of the auditors office
which is still in progress.

AS the result of row at 416 Marshall
street NE last night, Andrew Janowitz is
at the point Of death at the city hospital
and Thomas Moswitz and Ludwig Harvey
are locked up at central police station.
Mrs. Janowitz says that her husband
came to her home intoxicated last night. A
year ago she ordered him from her house
because, she says, he would not support
her, and often since he has tried to force
an entrance. Last night he tried agar
and succeeded. He burst into her room
and threatened to kill her, she says, but
was prevented by the two men who are
locked up. They are roomers in the
house, and hearing Janowitz's threats
came downstairs. Janowitz either walked
or was thrown into the rear yard, where
he was found two hours later by some on
passing. A patrolman was called.
The physicians at the hospital sa!
Janowitz's condition is serious and he ma.
not live. The police have not been abb

TOOK A CHANGE
And RECOVERED
MINNEAPOLIS WOMAN CURED BY
STRANGE sEER,s ADVICE.
The Patient Was Not Believer in
Clairyoyancy and Followed Instruc-
tions Simply Because the Medics
Said She Must Die Within Six
Months.
Months.

There is a family in Minneapolis,
the members of which profess to have
an utter disbelief in clairvoyancy, but
they are wondering over the advice of
st. Paul woman which, when fol-
lowed, resulted in the restoration to
who had been given but six months to
live by the family physician.
About a year ago the daughters
physician announced that she must
undergo severe operation or die
within six months. She decided to
home Of her mother with the firm
conviction that death would come to
her within the period named.
Soon after her daughters return,
the mother Of the sick woman went to
st: Paul to call upon friends who re-
sided in a fiat in that city. The
friends were not at home and the
mother knocked at a door opposite
her friends fiat to ascertain her
whereabouts. The door was opened
| by strange woman who spoke imme-
diately, saying: You are having a
great deal Of trouble. Do not give
up. It will come out all right.
but go home and give her hot water
treatments and she will recover"
The mother was naturally dumb
] founded as she had never seen the
woman before. She followed the ad-
! vice and the woman who was
| thought to be near death is alive to-
| day and as healthy as she could well
| be. The woman who gave the advice,
is was subsequently ascertained, poses
, as clairvoyant. The family on
whom the mother called had not
heard of the daughters illness and all
concerned are bordering over the
circumstances. The names of the
l persons concerned are withheld by
THE Jour M al from motives Of
delicacy, but the facts appear to be
we'll authenticated.
