Munch-Denison.

Munch-Denison.
One OF the most pleasant social
events of the fall, especially for the
Hudson neighborhood, was the we'd.
ding of Miss Alice Carrie Munich to
Charles B. Denison of Guelph, at the
home of the BRIDES father john
Munich, at z o'clock, September 28th.
About thirty five relatives and friends
we're present to witness the ceremony
and offer their congratulations to the
young couple. The ceremony was
performed by Rev. E. P. Lawrence of
Oakes. The bride and groom accom-
panied by Mr.. Dow as best man and
the brides sister, Miss Della Munich,
as bridesmaid, marched into the
parlor to the opening strains of the
wedding march, Lohengrin. They
arranged themselves under appro-
pirate floral decorations while they
we're united in holy wedlock by the
use Of the beautiful aud impressive
ring ceremony.
Immediately following the cere.
mony all sat down to the supper tab
les, ready to do justice to the bounti.
full meal that was spread. Only one
incident occurred to mar the pleasure
of the guests and that was the loss ot
the ice cream which very mysteriously
disappeared after the serving of the
first table.
The bride was prettily gowned in a
dress of white organdie over blue
trimmed with lace and white ribbons
while her sister, the bridesmaid, wore
white lawn with trimmings of lace
and blue ribbons.
The couple we're the recipients ol
many pretty gifts of silver, china
glassware, linen, etc.
They will make their home for the
present at least on the groom's farm
near Guelph.
The high esteem in which both the
bride and groom are held by the
community speak>well for their future
and their many friends wish then
many happy years of welded life and
prosperity on life's journey.

TESTING THEIR DISC DRILL.
The fioosier Drill People Believe They Have
Disc Bearing That Is Dust Proof.


lieve they have a drill that will meet
every requirement for the soil of the
Northwest. They thought they had
a drill last year that was about per-
feet, but discovered that, like other
makes, the discs would not work in
all kinds of soil. Their worst trouble
was in keeping the disc bearings free
from dust and dirt, and they are now
experimenting with new invention
that promises to keep out all dirt no
matter the nature of the soil.
A practical field test was made on
the farm of j. P. Dahlbeck north of
the city on Tuesday afternoon. The
drill was put on newly plowed ground
that was almost dry, and after three
hours work in the dust an examina.
tion of the discs showed that not
particle of dirt had collected on the
bearings. The bearing socket runs
in hard oil all the time, which renders
the draft of the machine lighter as
we'll rs keeps the disc bearings from
heavy wear.
Representatives of the Hoosiar
Drill Company of Richmond, Indiana,
and Of the Great Northern Imple-
ment Company of Minneapolis were
here making the test. In the party
we're S. 81. Jones, manager of i'm
provements and patents for the
Hoosier Company and G. A. Mills,
general traveller. The Great North
ern Company was represented by
Thomas Schibsby, sales manager, Ed
Schibsby, who has charge of sales in
the northern part of this state, and
H. T. Hayes, assistant manager.
Perkins & Tuthill, the local agents,
were in the field, as we'll as number
of farmers and representative of
this paper.
The gentlemen making the test
were very we'll satisfied with the re-.
suit. They had made five other tests
in Minnesota and South Dakota be-
fore coming here, their aim being to
experiment in all kinds of soil. So far
they were thoroly satisfied and be-
lieved they had something better
than ever before, in the way of a
drill, to offer to the farmers of the
Northwest
They went from here to Fargo,
where they will try it in the heavy
soil of the Red River Valley, and will
also make tests at Casselton and
Langdon.
Trying to Help the Millers.
Congressman Marshall left Sunday
night for Minneapolis and Duluth
where he is looking toward the estab.
fishing of options on macaroni
wheat. The millers of this state
could secure some large orders for
the flour from this wheat, but as the
boards of trade will not buy and sell
it for future delivery as they do other
wheat, it is hard for the millers to
place price on the -four, owing to
the uncertainty Of the wheat market.
If the macaroni could be bought for
future delivery, millers could secure
options and fill large orders without
taking the risk that they now do.
Mr.. Marshall came home by way
of Fargo, and presented his views to
the Commercial Club of that city at
special meeting Wednesday after
noon. It may take some time to get
macaroni the place it should have on
the market, but the congressman is
willing to try. He arrived home
!. yesterday afternoon.

THE GREATEST LIVING
CRIMINAL SAID ITO BE IN SPOKANE

It is not impossible that William
Rudolph, the Missouri Kid" has
found his way to the northwest and
as detective said this morning
"you may. take your luncheon by his
side at the Ondawa Inn any day and
be none the wiser"
The Pnkertons have established IN
agency in Spokane, ostensibly for doing
general detective business, but it is
known that they are bending every
energy to encompass the arrest. of the
Missouri Kid" for whose capture.
dead or alive, more money is being
expended than for any other criminal
living. If the "Kid" is in Spokane
the Pinkertons will turn him up; if he
is beneath the sun and has the breath
of life in him the Pinkertons will find
him.
Spending 1886, 900 a month to capture
one man is what the Pinkerton dstec-
tive agency is doing under the direction
of the American Bankers association
VIM. Rudolph, alias the Missouri
Kid" is the man the "big man" is
after with his whole force, and he
declares he will spend millions il
necessary before calling off his hounds
Rudolph is wanted for bank bur.
glary and murder. With Geo. Collins
he is credited with blowing the vault
in the Bank Of Union, Union, Mo-,
obtaining $4,000. This was ON Dec
20, 1902. The Bank of Union is men,
Der Of the American Bankers associa-
ton, an organization which crooks
generally avoid.
1t never lets up in it's chase for bank
wreckers and willingly spends many
times the amount stolen to punish the
burglars. This is examplified in the
case of Rudolph and Collins. One
hundred and forty thousand dollars has
already been expended and more will
be used. The reputation of the Pink
ertons is at stake, and the infallibility
of the American Bankers association
for prosecuting a chase must be sus-
tanned.
Three weeks after the wrecking Of
the Bank Of Union, c. J. Schumacher
one of Pinkerton's highest. salaried
men, located the "Missouri Kid" and
Collins in cabin outside of Stanton,

pair and, accompanied by three con-
stables, went to the place. When

to leave his cell to get shaved. Once
clear of the cell, he eluded his guards,
climbed to the top of the row of cells,
forced a skylight and gained the roof,
from where he made two 20-foot jumps
to the ground. He was gone an hour
before his escape was noticed, and from
that day to this no detective has set
eyes on him. He is thought to have
about $4,000 of the original $l2 900 with
him. Collins has been sentenced to
death.
The efforts being made to recapture
the Missouri Kid" are the most elab-
crate ever made to catch criminal.
The Pinkertons hope to get him
through his sweetheart, and II men
shadow Miss Wade constantly. Her
home is under surveillance at all times;
she cannot make move that is not
reported. This vigilance has several
times led to narrow escapes for
Rudolph.
Since his disappearance from st. Louis
Rudolph wrote Miss Wade to meet
him in Winnipeg. The letter was
intercepted and the detectives hurried
to the Manitoba town, but friends had
warned the crook and he did not show
up. 1t is thought he made his way to
Canada after escaping and from there
via the great lakes to the Atlantic
and into New York.
Some time ago Marion Wade learned
that the servant IN her mothers kitch-
en- was Pinkerton detective. The
letter carrier is held UP every trip and
relieved of mail destined for the Wade
home. After the letters are opened
and read he is allowed to 60 on. Later
a letter from one of Rudolph's friends
was found inside the cover of milk
can by the detectives. This gave them
clue, but Rudolph lodged them.
Pinkerton men are engaged watching
50 of the penitentiar1es and work
houses in this country; Canadian
places of imprisonment and French
penal institutions are watched and
searched for the missing man. Every
steamer leaving this country is watch
ed and often sailing vessels are over
hauled by oceangoing tugs and search
ed Every liner carries with it when
it leaves this country Pinkerton man.
All of these precautions cost money,
and it is not to be wondered that the
Pinkertons are spending $4,000 a
month to bring back to St. Louis the
man who is proving such an artful
dodger .-.------ -------

CLEVELAND. o.. Jan. 22.-Three
big Steel trust boats, the Moore,
Fades and Reiss. the latter heavily
loaded. broke from their moorings
this morning under pressure OF the
flood in the Cuyahoga. They were
swept down together into Superior
street and the viaduct completely
blocked. East passage was badly de-
ranged and the viaduct damaged. The
Moore was badly crushed, the Reiss
had big hole torn in her bow above
the water line.
On the way down they struck the
fireboat Clevelander, damaging 1t so
badly that the latter was beached to
keep from sinking. Ice Is piling up
against the lodged steamers in the
viaduct which Is the largest draw

closed to traffic and the damage will
be heavy.
