A SHOOTING scRAPE!

Fred Schaffer, German living
two miles from Turtle Lake, was
shot and seriously injured Thurs
day night by Walter Eggert, IS
year old son of A. F. Eggert. The
trouble arose over forty acres Of
crop which Schaffer had sown on a
piece of government land, and
which had afterward been filed on
by J. Lundqulst, and who had cut
and shocked the crop and claimed
the same.
Eggert had been to Underwood
on the day of. the shooting and
coming home rather late, discov-
cred Schaffer and his help loading
up the grain preparatory to haul
ing it home. Eggert went on home
and returned, accompanied by his
son, ordered the hauling of the
grain stopped, and in the melee
which took place, Schaffer was shot
by the boy who had shot gun,
the charge entering the left arm,
inaicting a dangerous wound. DR..
Brastad was summoned and the
wound dressed. Eggert and son
came to town the next morning and
gave themselves up to the sheriff.
Schaffer was brought to Washburn
Tuesday SO he could receive med
ical treatment. He is recovering
from the injuries, but it viii be
be some time before he will be able
to get around to attend to his farm
duties. The shooting, which was
the result Of scrap over some
Ecrop, is deplorable.
At the preliminary examination
before Judge Ranard Wednesday,
Eggert and son waived examina-
ton on the charge Of assault with
a dangerous weapon and We're
bound over to the district court,
bonds being fixed at 81 600 each.

Toxic, January 21.-In well informed
quarters here it is said that the Russian
army at Mukden was recently reinforc-
ed by four divisions. Its present
strength is estimated at nine army
corps, Or 100000 men of all arms. Cen
eral Kuropatkin's headquarters are at
Fling Mountain. in olose touch with the
line. The Russians
lately have been heavily strengthening
their wings. AIT present two and half
divisions are facing General Ol1u, two
corps are before General Nodzu and the
greater strength OF three corps con-
fronts General Kuroki and guards the
coal mines In the vicinity of the Fushan
valley.
Between the opposing armies is net
work of trenches. Kurokis outpos.s
are within five hundred yards OF the
Russians, entrenched along the line OF
ridges near Kwanaalien mountain. Can
nonading and rife firing are constantly
taking place. but owing to the intense
cold there seems to be no immediate
likelihood of a great battle.

Reginald's uncle, by which he loses
some $4,000 pounds, sterling, a year, if

He is anxious to marry a Peruvian wild
ow; but she is specifically mentioned in
the will as the one he should not marry.
Consequently he marries the penniless,
jovial and high-spirited Kitty, who
makes herself ugly for the occasion, and
he leaves after making a liberal settle
ment upon the bride. John Trayers,
friend and solicitor Of Sir Reginald, en-
gineers the whole affair, intending that
Kitty shall divorce her husband. who
will then be at liberty to espouse the
other woman" But they meet again
and things don't turn out as intended
in fact the most amusing complications
of the comedy then begin, and dax Fig
mans delightful comedy work is seen
to advantage.
There will be no advance in prices and
seats will be on sale Tuesday

mot on all things then?" he was
asked.
mo, of course not" said Mr.. Brayin.
'I believe in speaking well of any poll
cy that is good, regardless of what par
ty is supporting it. I have often been
accused Of being a Populist, merely be-
cause I have given my support to some
things advocated by that party. I sup
pose will now be accused of being a
Republican because I agree with Pres
ident Roosevelt's views on some things.
I think the President Enthusiastically
right in his demands as to railroad leg
islation and I told him so. I also think
that Mr.. Garfield, of the bureau of cor
porations is right in recommending
that corporations be required to cake
out federal license. I likewise believe
! in an income tax and hope to see it
brought about"
tHoW can it be brought about?"
"By a constitutional amendment" Mr..
Bryan suggested.
