The Street carnivaI-The hand bills
for the Bismarck street carnival to be
held in Bismarck for five days begin
ming July 3 are being distributed and
if half the attractions advertised are
produced there will be great plenty
to keep the visitors going in good
shape. The program includes attrac-

Pulled a Gun-Wm. Kunze was ar
rested today at Burleigh and bound
over to the district court by Judge
Gilbert in the sum of $500, which was
not furnished, on charge of assault
with dangerous weapon. 1t appears
from the story told by Kunze, who is a
section hand, that he was recently
robbed Of $40 at the section house and
accused Carl Cneziri, another section
hand, of turning the trick, so he seized
and hid the latters store clothes and
held them out pending negotiations for
the return OF his money. Yesterday
afternoon Cneziri demanded his
clothes and lively Dago talk passed,
when Kunze pulled a big gun and
threatened perforation of the other
fellows anatomy, when he was dis
armed, and the arrest followed
Cneziri denied the theft. Kunze is in
jail. .->

south yesterday. Mr.. Jewell had
planned to go at the same time, but
at the last moment was wired not to
come at present, but will probably
testify at the trial. 1t is wonderful to
what extent some men will go in the
matter of perjury in the effort to Sc
cure more land than they are legally
entitled to. The scarcity of vacant
land in this .neighborhood is a great
temptation to many to stretch the
truth considerably in an attempt to
get a piece of 1t without complying
with the law, and this case at Omaha
should be warning. -.

HOGS BRING SEVEN CENTS
a. L. Swaggart Sells Carload of
Porkers at That Price.

There is good money in hogs at
seven cents per pound, live weight.
Ihat is the price paid in Athena this
week by Walla Walla buyers. The
largest lot purchased was carload Of
prime porkers from A. l.. Swaggart
tho we'll known farmer and stockman
residing north of town. The stock
goes to Walla Walla firm.
The meat and packing industry of
the Garden City is rapidly advaun-
ing. 1t has reached the stage where
most OF the stock grown in this section
is required to supply the demand Of
the Walla Walla buyers. 1t is now a
rare occurrence when an Athena
rancher makes stock sale to Portland
or Sound buyers.
The introduction of the hog tight
fencing around the wheat fields
makes it possible for every farmer to
raise and fatten hogs cheaply, and the
number who are giving their attention
to hog raising is notably on the in
crease, carload or two of hogs on
hand to pick up aud fatten ON the
down grain in the fields, that other.

HAS ELEVEN HUNDRED CALVES
They Are Herefords and All Look
Alike to You.

Fay LIE Grow, cashier of the First
National Bank of Athena, is one OF
the principal owners in one of the
largest stock ranches in the North.
west.
The big cattle ranch is situated in
the Grab Greek country up in Wash
ington. Last year Mr.. LeGrow and
the Drumhellers of Walla Walla pur-
chased the lands and hundreds of hea d
OF Hereford cattle Of an English lord.
An idea of the magnitude or this great
ranch may be had when it is learned
that fifteen sections of land are under
fence, in addition to thousands of acres
OF outside range which the company
controls by virtue Of water rights.
Several thousand head of cattle
forage on this excellent range, for the
Grab Creek lands are noted for sue
culent grass and plenty of it. Nearly
all OF the stock ranging there is owned
by the company, and nearly every
head is marked with the white face of
the Hereford.
Ibis year III tnat portion of the range
under fence, eleven hundred head of
little white faced Hereford calves
sport and play on the hillside, and
next year there will be greater num-
Der, for only barren calves and heifers
are being sold out Of the COW herds.
An interesting sight it is, to see eleven
hundred calves in one bunch, and
more interesting still, when you can
not tell"one from another, ''for with
their we'll known Hereford character
istic, they all look alike to you.
Over 800 head Of beef cattle have
been sold from the ranch this season,
the greatest number being purchased
by Walla Walla buyers.

of pIaymates, and her death is sad in
the extreme She was born in Denver,
Colorado, June 5, 1897, at her death
being aged 9years, 2 months and 0
days.
The family have the sympathy of all
in their bereavement, and more mark

Of there being but little hopes for its
recovery.
