BARBER-HAsklN WEDDING.

Last Tuesday evening at eight o'clock
at the home of MIR. and Mrs. Thos.
Pearson in this city occurred the we'd
ding of Mr.. Edgar Lee Barber and Miss
Bertha Mabel Haskin, Rev. G. E. Nor
ply of the Baptist church performing
the ceremony.
Onlya few ofthe near friends and
relatives witnessed the happy union
If this couple. After the ceremony
vas performed and the showers of con-
gratulaticns we're given splendid re-
freshments were served. The happy
couple then took the evening train for
Omaha where they remained for few
days.
The uniting in marriage of these
well-suited young people gives great
pleasure to their host of friends in this
city who join in wishing them long
and happy life. Both have been we'll
and popularity known among the PEG e
of Denison for number OF ears. Mr..
Barber has lived in Denison from boy
hood and everyone has placed tseA1
most confidence both in his I'M
and honesty and in his ability1t 70 ac-
complish anything toward which he
directed his energies. By hard work
and application he has risen in his pro-
fession as an architect and he now has
a good business.
The bride has for number of years
been successful teacher in our public
schools. Her ability as a teacher and
her sweet christian character has won
her place in the hearts of both pupils
and patrons alike and it is with regret
that we see her step from the ranks of
our school teachers.
Both of these young people are faith
full and active members of the Baptist
church and active workers in the
young peoples society. In education
culture, character and friends they are
well prepared for the journey of life
which we trust will be long and happy

BATTLE WITH BANDITS.
st. Louis Officers Attempt Capture
Fight Follows-Four Men Killed,
Two Wounded.

st. Louis, Oct 23-Three city detec-
tives are dead, one train robber suspect
is at the morgue, another is not expected
to live, while still another is badly
Wounded-this is the result of desper-
rate battle between five officers and
three men whom they tried to arrest.
The dead are: John J. Shea, detective,
killed instantly; Thomas Dwyer, detec-
tive, died in hospital; James McCloskey,
detective, died in hospital; Al Rose,
suspect, killed instantly. The wounded
are: G. c. Blair suspect shot through
stomach, may die; Harry H. Vaughn,
suspect, badly beaten by detectives.
The fight occurred in the front room
of a house on Pine street, and the men
whom the detectives sought to arrest
are suspected of being implicated in a
train robbery at Centralia, ILL.,, a few
weeks ago. Vaughn was arrested on the
street and taken to the house by the
detectives Hardly had the detectives
entered the room in which Rose and
Blair were seated, when they were met
with a volley of shots from a heavy cal
the first shot, and Dwyer followed al
most instantly. BY that time the de-
tectives had drawn their revolvers and
there was deafening exchange Of
shots for several seconds, each man
pulling the trigger of his weapon as
rapidly as possible. During the excite
ment, Vaughn attempted to escape from

Boyle and James, however, dubbed their
revolvers and beat their prisoner over
the head until he was unconscious, and
then they went to the aid of Shea, Dwyer
and McCluskey. the latter having in the
meantime sunk to the floor with crit
ical wound in the stomach. One of the
unwounded detectives summoned an
ambulance, and the wounded officers
and suspects we're taken to the city hos

| AS soon as word of the shooting
reached Chief Of Detectives Desmond,
he Immediately pressed into service a
buggy which happened to be standing
in front of headquarters and drove at
a gallop to the hospital. There, after
a brief consultation with his wounded
men, he confined himself to Blair, the
wounded suspect. Blair made the
statement that he, Rose and others had
been seated in the room when the door
was opened and the detectives entered
/ Blair noting the fact that Detective
Shea had his revolver drawn, pulled his

Found Dead.

Death came toia well known young
woman of Crookston very myteriously.
Miss Anna Nelson was the victim, and
the peculiar circumstances have been
Investigated as thoroughly as possible.
She had spent several months in
Beltrami, and returned to the city, re
pairing to the home of A. Vikjord. AT
ter spending a pleasant evening with
the family, she retired to her room.
She did not come down to breakfast,
and she did not appear at dinner the
family laughingly excused her by say
ing that she must have been very tired
from her long journey. At supper
time genuine alarm was felt, and tax
ing down the door, they found her or
the bed, cold in death, her face buried
in pillow and her hands elapsed
around her knees. At the autopsy il
was decided that she passed away in q

MINNESOTA NEWS.
Fall to Death.

Mr. and Mrs. Scammon of Minneapo-
lis were fatally injured at 1 o'clock in
the afternoon by falling to the pave
ment on the Minnesota street side Of
the Germania Insurance building in ST.
Paul, while giving a demonstration of
patent fire escape. Dying and still
locked in each others arms, they were
hurried to ST. Joseph's hospital in the
police ambulance.
The fatal accident was caused by
the breaking of slender rope on
which Mr. Scammon descended alone
from the eighth foorIof the building to
the third. Mrs. Scammon, who had re-
manned at a third story window OBJ
scure from the view of the crowd
watching the experiment, was elapsed
in her husbands arms with the inten-
ton OF giving an exhi bition of a thrill
ing rescue.
AS Mr.. Scammon received his wife
into his arms he nodded his head to
her as if to ask her if everything was
ready for continuance of the descent.
The wife gave a quick movement OF
the head as return answer, and as she
did so the rope gave away at the Sth
story window, where the sharp-edged
stone had cut into it from the swaying
of the weight on the lower end. The
man and woman fell to the stone side
walk sixty feet below.

PROVERBS ABOUT CARS.

A car in the desert is only a man.
The car himself can get muddy if
he steps in the mud.
Even the crown of the car cannot
cure headache.
The cars crows cannot have more

A drop Of water in the eye of the
car costs the country great many
handkerchiefs.
When the car makes you present
Of an egg be expects of you hen.
The czar can disturb the earth, but
he cannot move it from it's axis.
The car knows not misery because
he does not live in q cabin
The arm Of the car is long, but it
cannot reach to the sky.
The voice of the car has an echo
even when there are no mountains.
The ukases Of the car are worth
nothing if God says not amen"
The horse which has once beer

More Medals.

The Minnesota exhi bit at the Lousi.
ana Purchase exposition at ST. Louis
scored again. The judges got around
to the agricultural exhibits, and this is
what they gave the state:
Two grand prizes
Eleven gold medals.
Eighteen silver medals.
Seventeen bronze medals.
The way the Minnesota exhibit at
the fair is gather ing in the medals it
will be not only the bread and butter
state, but every other kind of state.
The Minnesota educational exhibit
captured nearly all the prizes going.
The mining exhibit got it's fnll share,
and even the fruit exhibit took prizes
away from the famous fruit states.
The Minnesota agricultural exhibit
filed a space seventy feet square. A
large butter model occupied the center.
representing the states dairy interests.
Columns Of corn surrounded the exhi
bit, and an entrance was an archway
built of corn. The showing in corn
was exceptionally strong.

Dress In Japan.

Between the sexes in Japan there is
very little difference in the main fea-
lures Of dress, and little children are
only beautiful little miniatures of their
parents, more gayly and richly dressed.
Under his kimono a man of the upper
class wears a sort of killed divided
skirt, something approaching the ma
ture of trousers. This is called the
'hakama" and is always made of stiff
silk A woman wears instead an I'M
der kimono. Both sexes wear two lit
tie aprons round the loins, called
''koshi-maki," and a sort Of shirt called
the "suso-yoEe." The narrow sash
worn by man is not an item of great
Importance, for, although it is always
made Of rich silk, it is not SO much for
show as for use, to keep the kirnono in
place.

Girls and the Old SCHOOLS.

A ruling for New Haven school
made in 1854 reads, s'And all girls be
excluded as improper and inconsistent
with such a grammar school as We law
injoins and is the designe of this set
tlement." One Benjamin Nudge, d
New England schoolmaster of many
years service, has left the following
interesting memorandum: TN all my
school days, which ended in 1901,
never saw but three females in public
schools in my life, and they were only
in the afternoon to learn to write y
Mr.. Nudge neglects to say, however,
that the girls We're permitted not only
to the writing lessons, but they were
also privileged to attend the general
annual catechising.
