EXPERIMENT STATION NOTES.

The effective work the expert
ment station at Knoxville has been
doing for the agriculture of the
State is now generally, recognized.
Those who are in close touch with
it realize that it can render much
greater service to the farmer in the
future, provided it has the proper
financial aid from the State.
The station has made a credita-
BILE record with it's limited finan-
cial support It's Investigations
have resulted in placing the peo-
pie in possession of information of
priceless value. In view of these
facts the following excerpts from
the report of the director, dealing
with the needs Of the station, will
be Of interest to our readers. The
requests for State aid are certainly
moderate in view of the valuable
work the station'has accomplished
and the splendid support accorded
to these institutionsinsi states:
"Sotne of the more important
needs may be summed up. as fol-
lows:
"Money to conduct cooperative
investigations in various sections
of the State relative to truck crops,
cotton, tobacco, soils, fertilizers
and stock. For this purpose an
appropriation of $4,000 from the
State is essential.

THE CONGRESSIONAL RACE.

Judging from the tone Of the
press Hon. 7. W. Sims is going to
have strong opposition if he is a
candidate for reelection to Con-
gress. The Nashville News says:
Congressman Sims has cause
to look upon the future with fore
bodings, for something is threat
ening to happen in the Eighth,
and it threatens to happen to Mr..
Sims, too, if all reports are to be
credited.
The Troy News-Banner says:
"Thera. will be a royal battle for
Congressional honors over in the
Eighth district, our former popu-
lar attorney general, j. W. Lewis,
having announced his candidacy
for Congress against the present
incumbent, Mr.. Sims. While we
wish Sims no evil, we sincerely
trust Mr.. Lewis will defeat him.
We regard Lewis as one of Tennes-
sees ablest and purest men,"

his decisions, so that number
of doubtful scores were made
which were recorded by Score
keeper Schneider, who seemed
to favor the HAS Beens. Barker
who played at short, made some
very lurid and astonishing errors,
considering that he was talked of
before the game as being the
star man of the team. White
seemed to freeze to the ball on
first when it came his way, but
seldom located the bag with his
foot. Brooks made very pretty
catch in left field and Flatner
stopped everything that came his
way at third. Palmer made a
record as a foot racer whom he
ran down man between first
and second. Gill was added to
the "Has Beens" IN the fifth inn
ing, but his spectacles hindered
him to such an extent that he
was unable to- score. Quite a
crowd turned out to see the game
and a large number of tickets
were sold.

Was Shot to Death By Bullet From $3.50
Calibre Winchester Rifle.

The autopsy held over the re-
mains of N. 0. Dahl this morning
developed the fact that Dahl came
to his death from a gun shot
wound and not as the result of a
wound inflicted by an ak at first
reported and supposed.
Dahl's body was brought down
from Tenstrike this morning,
having been hauled in from his
homestead over almost inaccessi-
BILE roads by a neighboring home
steader. At the grave it was
picked up and put in rough box.
Upon it's arrival in this city it was
at once taken to the undertaking
establishment of J. P. Lahr,
where Coroner Henderson and
Deputy Coroner conducted the
autopsy.
A careful examination of the
body was made for the first time
and the gun shot wound was
found. The body is in state of
decomposition and it is difficult
to tell whether or not a wound
might not also have been inflicted
by a blow from an ak but this is
not improbable. The bits of
broken skull placed together
plainly show where the bulleJ
entered. The ball was not found,
but from the nature and extent
of the wound it has been decided
that it was probably inflicted
with a 5000 calibre rifle. At the
conclusion of the autopsy tho
body was Theoretically sealed in
link casket and will be shipped
to Crookston. O. G. Rood, a
son-in-law and G. G. Strander
another relative, both from
Crookston, were present at the
autopsy this morning.
The funeral will occur at
Crookston tomorrow but the ar
rangements had not been com
pleted when the relatives left the
city this afternoon.
The search for Miss AagOt
Dahl still continues and has SO
far been without developments.
1t is believed, however, that she
will be found dead or alive some
time within the next few days.

DEATH BY 4 BULLET
Coronor's Autopsy Makes Important Develop
ment in Dahl Murder Case.

Gated about hundred and fifty
feet distance from the front door
of the cabin and behind and a
little to the right of the log barn
and woodshed. It is a monarch
balsam, which has been uprooted
by the wind and later split by
frost and allowed to settle back
into the ground. It was taken
out of place when the body was
removed a team being hitched toit
with chain and literally dragged
it from the ground.
The searching parties have
passed the spot hundreds of
times since the Investigation was
begun. A rude foot path runs
on one side of the stump and one
;of the men who was searching
for Dahl several weeks ago acct
dentally stepped in the hole on
one side where the body was
buried while passing. He nc
ticed nothing peculiar and paased
on. Caldwell, who is under ar
rest and accused of completely in
the crime, claims that the first
mixing he had that the body was
buried there was when a dog
that was with him stopped and
began smelling near the stump.
He then noticed the odor and
stopped and made the search
which resulted in the finding of
the body.
Concerning Caldwell and Four
ME, who are held for the crime
lat the county Jail in this city,
people in the vicinity Of Quiring
have little to say. Caldwell is
known as very talkative and un-
reliable and has told mum Der of
conflicting stories. Fournie is
said to be a bad man with a record.
He was sentenced to the state
penitentiary for highway rob-
berry and served three years of
five years sentence, when
through the influential friends of
J. G. Sodina, the notorious Col
umbia theatre man, of Mime
apolis, he was pardoned. He has
been in that vicinity for num-
Der of years.
Caldwell and he have been
quite intimate and much of the
talk that Fournie is a bad man
seems to have it's foundation in
the fact that Caldwell claims that
a relative of Fournie's named
Savers told him that Fournie
had planned the murder of the
government paymaster on his
last trip to the Red Lake Agency.
He was to be murdered for the
money he had on his person and
his body was to be thrown in
1.-THE river. With the plans all
perfected Sayers weakened and
it was abandoned.
After the discovery of the body
and before his arrest Fournie ap-
peared to very nervous according
to those who talked with him.
He Was employed in cutting hay
near the Dahl place and stated to
a friend that he expected to be
arrested for the murder but that
he was innocent. A third man
in the case who is competed with
it in an important capacity by
the neighborhood gossipis James
Wesley, Familiarity known as
'Shorty," Wesley has been
missing from his usual haunts
FOR some time. He also bears a
bad reputation. Others are
mentioned in connection with the
case.

A WHALE STRANDED

Kihei, March 5.-Last Saturday .
live baby sperm whale. about eight
feet In length, was washed ashore at
the Kihei wharf. The little sperm"
whale baby remained alive until the
man who discovered 1t chopped 1t up
in the evening. When he was drag
ging 1t home with team Of mules baby
whale objected and would bend up al
most double but two good mules on
dry land was more than II could hold
back. 1t kept alive on dry land seven
or eight hours until butchered with an
axe. suggested tying a strong rope
to 1t and letting It go into the sea
again In the expectation Of having the
mother whale follow the baby ashore
as whalers say mother whales will
stick by their babies till killed, but Mr..
Man evidently was Of the opinion that
a baby whale on dry land was worth
all the mother whales at large in the
sea and did not see my way Of looking
at It, A large full grown whale is
worth thousands Of dollars providing
II is a sperm whale as old whalers
around here claim this baby whale to
be. The baby whale probably netted
81 or IS to the lucky man who found
her.
There are quite number of whales
off the shore. You can see them sport
ing, jumping out Of the water, and
blowing almost any hour Of the day all
