MorrilPs influence any more than
could help.
Hands Battered by Beatings.
"But she would go out of the house
and secretly visit her music teacher.
She literally adored that woman and
time and time again told me that Mrs.
Morrill, was aiding her by sending
thought waves to her.
Mrs. Morrill,, whose name has be-
come involved in the tragic end o. the
girls study of mentall science, was
visibly affected by the news that her
pupils mind had become affected.
Expected Science to Help Her.
"I was devoted to Miss Carpenter,
and she was devoted to me-" said Mrs.
Morrill,. THE fact that her mind has
become affected through study is a
sad, sad thing, but there was nothing
of hypnotism in my treatment l feel
deeply the misfortune that has over
come her, and will give a few facts
showing the sequence of events that
led on to it.
'"Three years ago Helen became my
pupil, and though her voice was weak
there was every reason to believe that
it would strengthen in time.
1.-TWO years ago, while with the
Carpenters at Lebanon Springs, Helen
was badly burned, her dress catching
fire. No physician was called, and
she was healed by prayer. That con-
firmed me and my pupil in our faith.
We felt sure that mental science, and
the helpful effect of thought waves,
would aid her in her music. She
studied harder than ever, and much
to my sorrow / found that, instead
of growing stronger, her mind seemed
to be becoming weaker.
/ "a short time ago she told me that
she feared her mother would kill her.
/ soothed her as best / could, and sent
her to her brother. On Thursday she
came again to me, and seemed more
excited than ever. but finally / paci-
fed her and got her to go home.
If she is insane now, it is, of
course. largely due to her study of
mental science, and to that extent /
am responsible"
DR.. Leonard Ely, the family ply
stefan, who lives in the same apart
ment house as the Carpenters, said
last night that Miss Carpenters ILL
ness was merely temporary, and
that with good care and freedom
from worry she would regain her
former health and mental strength
in short time.

cheerful" None Of the three stories
in question could be accused of being
either the one or the other; but this
was hardly to be expected, as the hiss
tory of the short story in our liter
ature will unquestionably show that
the strong, virile tale has been placed
above the humorous one. The fact
that two out of the three prize win
ners were also practically unknown in
the world of letters. will also no doubt
encourage ambitious authors to con-
tinue the uphill fight. 1t should at
least do much toward breaking down
that forbidding but absolutely phan-
tom theory that editors of our maya
zines desire only names and not

The Ward County independent. [volume] (Minot, Ward County, N.D.) 1902-1965, 1905-05-10

Two laboring men who at
tempted to steal a ride east from
Minot, were instantly killed in a
car OF lumber in the Great North
ern yards at this place early Sat
friday morning. Their remains
were found by a car repairer ear
ly Saturday morning. The men
had been at Williston looking
for land, but ran out of funds,
and were on their way east
where they intended to work on
farms.
BY papers found on their dead
bodies, their names were found
to be p. Jenlaft and Fred
Thompson.
The men were in Minot two
days and were seen at the Corner
restaurant about supper time.
They probably went to the
yards, crawled into a car OF lum-
Der and went to sleep. During
the night the car was switched in
the yard, and was evidently
bumped hard, for a part OF the
lumber was knocked out Of place.

ly. Several boards were forced
clear thru his head, taking with
it a portion of his hat. Jen-
laft's head was crushed, but not
SO badly. 1t is evident that he
did not die Immediately, for
when found, his body was still
warm. A letter found in jon
laft's pocket. written to B. O..
Sweun, OF Freeborn, n. d., ex-
planned what he had been doing.
He was a Norwegian, who came
from Bergen. In his pocket were
found pictures Of himself and
wife at the time OF their mar
riage, and it was easily seen that
the poor fellow had seen better
days. He had been i'll all winter,
and that explains his lack OF
funds. There we're other pictures
in his pocket of his old home in
Norway, pictures Of his father
and mother and perhaps broth
ors and sisters. Both men were
in the neighborhood OF 35 years
Of age.
|. Sweun was notified by teIe-
gram OF the death of the men,
but no reply has been received
from him. so they will be buried
in the potter's field Thursday.

A reporter OF this paper met
Gov. j. Nj. Devine regarding his
trip to breckenridge. where he
delivered All address at the dedi-
cation OF the new hospital at
that place, and suggested that a
synopsis OF his address would be
good reading. But the governor
fatty declined to discuss the
speech, saying it could be OF lit
tie help to the readers Of this
paper, at this point.
He stated that the occasion
was a splendid success, many
noted visitors being present from
Minnesota and North Dakota,
the citizens Of both breckenridge
and Wahpeton vieing with each
other to make the occasion a
most successful one. All day
long the magnificent building
was thronged bypeople from the
immediate vicinity who were
taken in hand by a committee OF
ladies whose business it was to
show them through the building.
"a ceremony OF dedication lead
by bishops from Minnesota and
North Dakota together with
quite a number of priests, was
certainly a splendid spectacle
and imposing. Ore must visit
this hospital to grasp the Won
derful devices used in the allevia-
ton OF the sufferings OF the i'll.
One can also see how much bet

physician can work when sur
rounded by such aids as the hos
pital lends to the physician and
surgeon. doubt whether there
is a single modern idea in hospi-
tai structure that is not a part
OF the machinery OF this institu-
ton.
The building was erected at a
cost OF $4,000. So complete,
indeed, is the structure that it's
very completeness disarms crit
icism and makes its success
doubly sure. 1t is controlled by
the Franciscan sisters who are
probably the most successful
hospital builders in the land"
Gov. Devine in the course of
his address made this statement.
that he congratulated the cities
OF Breckenridge and Wahpeton
for having this splendid temple
erected in the name of common
humanity, and in the building Of
which all classes, creeds and par
