BURKE-F|SK PEOPLE.
ASK LIBERAL
ODDS
Several Large Wagers Laid on
the Outcome Of the
Election.

AS election day approaches, interest
in the outcome increases. In support
of this statement it may be cited as a
fact that during the past few days
wagers amounting to several thousand
dollars have been made in this city.
George o. Sayles, prominent poll
tician and wealthy merchant residing
In Williams county near Williston, last
evening in a local hotel, laid wager
of $500 against $3.50, that Governor
Sarles would have majority Of 10000.
At least two $500 bets, even money
have been made by and between Grand
Forks parties on the governorship,
while many lesser bets have been
placed on the outcome of the fight for
the supreme court between John Knauf
and c. ]. Fisk. One man laid a wager
this morning, even money, that Cover
nor Sarles would have a majority of
not less than 10000 votes.
The subject of betting on elections
was discussed today in the office of
States Attorney Wineman. One Of
those present asked If it wer fact
that the laying of a wager on an cleo
ton would disfranchise the parties to
the bet MIR. Wineman stated that
such was not the case, except the par
ties to wager be connected with the
elections in an official capacity, such
as Judge or clerk.
At Fargo last Sunday, prominent
banker is said to have laid $1,000
against $500 on the election of Judge
knauf over c. ]. Fisk. So far as
known, no bets have been laid on
democrats of the state ticket, against
republicans, other than in the cases of
John Burke and Judge Fisk. Even
then, the hackers of those gentlemen
are asking, and securing with little
difficulty, liberal odds.

POLICE VIGILANCE
AvA|lEO Of
Marauding Gangs Committed
Customary Depredations
Last Night.
TWO SIDES OF THE GAME
The Bright and the Dark-The
Various Manners of
Celebrating.
TWO SIDES OF THE GAME

In spite of all the vigilance OF the
police the threats and warnings of
parents and guardians, and the watch
fulness of citizens, Halloween 1906,
was as bad, If not worse than its pre-
decessors, in the matter of destruction
Of property due to the depredations
of marauding gangs, who choose to
call this fun"
One has but to make tour of the
alleys in the residence sections of the
city to discover the truthfulness of
the above statement. Outbuildings
may be seen reclining in almost every
conceivable position. The front streets
did not escape unscathed either. Here
and there fences are torn, down, Sec
tons Of sidewalk missing, and OBJ
structions piled on the highway.
The police used every precaution to
interrupt this kind of celebration, but
owing to the number of gangs, and
their strength, and due to the further
fact that they were watched closer
than were the marauders themselves,
it was almost impossible to surprise
roughs in the act of committing any
depredations.
The above is. in short, a history of
the black side of Hayyowe'en 1906.
But as nearly every occasion of this
character possesses a bright side, it
might be said that Halloween 1906.
was no different from its predecessors.
Indoor celebrations were numerous.
In probably majority of homes of
the city, at least in the majority of
those in which there are children,
there we're festivities of character
calculated to please the little folks
and furnish them with amusement that
will cause them to look upon Hal
lowe'en as an eve of good cheer, and
not as a night for disgraceful deeds.
The time honored customs of Hal
lowe'en, such as ducking for apples,
tafy-pulling, indoor GHOSTS" ETC.,
were followed in Grand Forks last
night In some homes the festivities
took on a formal aspect. Parties, to
which were invited the friends of the
entertainers, held forth in all parts of
the city. In the society columns of
this edition may be found brief men,
ton of number of affairs of the
character above referred to.

TWO UGLY ASSAULTS
REPORTED To
Two Men Beset "Dee" Bower
p. Dorshel and F. Newark
Also Banged.

Last night Dee" Boyer, a young
man residing in this city, was brutally
set upon and beaten over the head by
two men at the west approach of the
DeMers avenue bridge. Mr.. Boyer was
ON his way across the river and at the
place above mentioned was met by
four men headed westward. AS he
passed, the man nearest the latter
suddenly struck out, knocking him
against the railing. Another of the
four men took q hand in the affair
throwing MIR. Boyer with all his might.
Physically the victim of the assault
was no match for the quartet and real.
izing this, he contented himself with
getting away and afterwards follow
Ing the men. The opponents of the
Jefrtes mode OF chastisement con-
tinued in toward the Great Northern
depot content to go back to the farm
with the blood of. the cityfied resting
easily upon their conscience. But such
was not to be. Mr.. Boyer walked
along behind until Policeman Coan
was encountered near the Kent Realty
offices between Third and Fourth
street. He notified the patrolman who
Immediately started in pursuit of the
ruffians. After a chase of several
blocks the officer captured the CHER
offender and lead him to the bar of
justice where he was arraigned upon
a charge OF assault and battery. He
was taxed SO and costs which he
paid.
Another ruffianly and brutal act was
committed later in the evening in an
alley between Dell and lone avenues.
Two boys. Paul Dorshel and Frank
Newark, were set upon by two men
and marked up in great style. The
boys were on their way home and were
undoubtedly taken for the perpetra-
tors Of some destructive deed which
had enraged the men to a murderous
pitch of excitement. One of the boys,
Paul Dorshel, was SCARED and
branded across the face with a sharp
instrument-either an axe or fork,
while the other lad escaped with
few cuts and bruises.
Many other minor injuries, as re-
suit of Halloween, have been reported
today but they were too insignificant
to deserve mention. Horse whipping
and shakings from irate property own.
ers were also numerous.

CHIPS" ARE LEGAL TENDER
Bernard Gilbertson of Northwood Elk.
periences Wrestle With the Law.

Bernard Gilbertson, the man who
was tried at Northwood yesterday on
charge Of violating the prohibition
law, was bound over to the district
court in 5000 bonds which were furn-
ished. Gilbertson had rather a peculiar
plan of conducting the business, and
thought that he had technical means
of safety. He organized poker parties
who dug up something like a dollar
for chips. In addition to the rake-off
Gilbertson asked each man for a quar-
ter's worth of chips to pay for the
beer which he then delivered. His
idea seems to have been that poker
chips were not legal tender and that
when he sold beer for chips, the law
would not hold him responsible, as
they were not of any value. The court
seems to have taken the other and
correct view that anything which rep
resented money was payment within
the meaning of the law.

Was LOST N A BLIZZARD
Young Woman Nearly Loses Life From
Exhaustion Near LaMourc, n. d.

About three O'Clock last Saturday
afternoon. while the blizzard was rag
ing, Miss Rebecca Larson, a young
lady residing in the village of Verona,
N. ID. went out to look for a COW She
wandered around in the storm for
several hours, and becoming exhausted
was about to lie down in the suow
and give up the fight when she was
noticed by members of the Fleming
family, who Immediately rescued and
cared for her until morning. Not
knowing that she was safe, a party of
thirteen of Verona's citizens braved
the storm from eight O'Clock in the
evening until one o'clock the next
morning, searching for the girl with
lanterns. Every hay stack, straw
stack and building was carefully
searched without avail. Finally the
party met about four miles southwest
OF town, compared notes and decided
to postpone the search until morning
as all were exhausted from wading
through the snow, besides being
drenched to the skin. They were Just
starting toward town, when three
shots we're heard-the signal agreed
upon in event the young lady was
found. Guided by the flashes, the par
ty soon found themselves at the Flenl-
ing farm south of Verona. Here was
found the missing girl.

DOYLE PLEAD NOT GUILTY
Famous Trial at Mor1en, Man. Inter.
estfng-Christopher Foley Arrested
for Intimidation.

The Doyle murder trial at Morden,
Man. is developing into a more than
sensational trial. The Manitoba pa
pers state that the first days work
included the arrest of a man named
Christopher Foley ON a charge of in
timidation. 1t is claimed that Foley
is a friend of Doyle's and that he
urged the witnesses from Cavalier
county to 60 home without giving their
testimony against him.
When the court opened at Morden
yesterday morning the grand jury SUBJ
mitted that true bill had been found
In the indictment of Martin Doyle for
murder. George A. Stewart Potts, the
crown prosecutor, and R. A. Bonner,
counsel for the accused, signified their
readiness to proceed, and the prisoner
was brought in. He looked little the
worse for his long confinement, and
when the charge was read to him, he
pleaded not guilty. The Jury was
then empannelled and the examination
OF witnesses commenced. Five only
were heard during the day, and court
adjourned early, as Mr.. Potts did not
wish to break the continuity he had
arranged and the next witness will
require q lengthy examination. Yes
te''ay's evidence was chiefly in regard
to the finding Of thu body.

JOHN MILLER WAS RELEASED
Postoifice Robber Suspect Not the Man
Wanted-He Has Been Given
His Freedom.

Fargo Fourm: John Miller of Ken
mare. whom the United States author
tiles believed to be Jack Craig, the man
wanted for the Lisbon postoffice rob-
berry was released from prison this
morning by U. s. District Attorney
Rourke. The prisoner was brought
before the district attorney and after
an examination that official ordered his
release as 1t was ascertained during
the night that Miller was not the man
that was wanted.
While Miller answered the descrip"
ton Of Craig to the letter, the author
tiles have been placed in possession
of facts that lead them to believe
that Miller Is not the man wanted for
the Lisbon Job.
John Miller, after being released on
the warrant charging him with being
implicated in the Lisbon postofiice
robbery, was rearrested and held by
the United States authorities as an
important witness in a case that will
be taken before the grand jury which
convenes here week after next.
The prisoner was discharged by JUS
tice Miller upon motion of United
States District Attorney Rourke but
before he had an opportunity to leave
the court room he was placed under
arrest and is being held at the county
Jail.

1UMBLED FROM A BRIDGE
Jean Gaudette Fell 20 Feet from Bridge
Near Crookston Yesterday.

While Jean Gaudette was working
on g. N. bridge near Gerard three
miles from Crookston yesterday, he
lost his balance and fell to the ground
twenty feet below. When a number of
the workmen who saw Gaudette fall,
arrived at the spot the latter was
found in an apparently lifeless state.
The Fargo train which approached
shortly after the mishap was stopped
and the victim of the accident was
taken on board. Upon the arrival of
the train in Crookston Gaudette was
carried into the freight office where
he revived. DR.. Dunlop, who was sum-
moned conducted an examination but
could not find any external injury.
The victim of the accident although
in lame condition will be able to re-
turn to work again in week or ten
days the physician says. That no
bones were broken or more serious
injury suffered is a marvel.

ANDERSON LIKES THE HAY
Gust Anderson Likes Notoricty and is
Getting Into Limelight
Regular.

Contentedly lying in horse stall
munching wisp of hay, Gust Ander-
son. the man who has been furnishing
all kinds of fun for Valley City people
recently, was found by youth in a
barn in Valley City yesterday morn
ing.
Anderson first got his name in the
papers when he attempted suicide by
hanging. burning his hair and cutting
his juggler with a piece of glass.
Then he stole some furs from a resi-
dence in Valley City and paraded the
streets. giving an accurate imitation
of Il winter scene in the arctic.
1t is claimed that Anderson's sud-
denly developed taste for hay is no,
limited to the nibbling of a small
amount. but that he now eats the stuff
in large quantities.
The farmers In the vicinity of VAL
ley City are said to be trying to get
Anderson to go to work for them.
IF my farm hands all ate hay" re-
marked one farmer. Il could go to
California every winter"

CREOsOTE FAVORED.
City Engineer Smith Has Returned
From Trip, Paving Committee Seems
to Favor CreOSOte Blocks.

City Engineer Smith has returned
from Duluth and Minneapolis where
he went several days aga with the
paving committee from this city. Mr..
Smith visited at the Kettle River sand
stone Quarries in Minnesota and looked
the question up thoroughly. The
general sentiment of the citizens and
of the special paving committee seems
to favor the Creosote paving. Fargo
had been experimenting with Sec
ton of this class. Minneapolis and
Duluth also have several districts
paved with Creosote blocks. The cost
OF this class of paving with the con-
crete base will he almost triple tile
cost of the cedar blocks now in use.
MIR. Smith has roughly estimated the
Creosote at So per square yard

Fifteen strong, the University of
North Dakota football team left last
evening for Brookings, 8. D., where
tomorrow afternoon it goes against
the strong Brookings squad. The trip
was something of surprise to DR..
Sweetland and members of the team
alike. For several days there has
been much correspondence between
the two institutions relative to game,
and for a time it looked as though the
game would have to be cancelled. Yes
terday afternoon, Manager OConnor
of the U. N. D. squad received a tele-
gram saying that the game would have
to be played Friday or not at all,
consequently there was much hustling
to get packed and in readiness for the
journey.
While not over confident, the men,
bers of the team predict that they will
return with the scalp of the 8. D. A. C..
trailing along somewhere in the rear.
When asked his opinion on the out
look for tomorrow's game, Coach
Sweetland replied: "They have not
lost game this year, and in fact have
not played many to lose, for this rea-
son they are comparatively an I'M
known quantity. Yes the game will
be played Friday. If had known this
sooner We would have been in much
better shape to meet the South Da-
kota farmers, as it is, We have done
no outside work since the game last
Saturday. All our work has been in
the University armory, and this in
door work is almost worthless as far
as development is concerned. had
expected to change the lineup con-

HAS NOT EXAMINED WEED.
Analysis Of Tobacco Has Not Been
Made by Commissioner Ladd.

During the past ten days." says
Pure Food Commissioner Ladd, there
have been repeated requests for infor-
nation with regard to the composition
of certain tobaccos, and the statement
has been made, am told, through the
press, that this department has exam
ined tobacco and reported upon the
purity of the same. Fearing from the
number of requests for information
that have come to us that the people
are misled in regard to this matter,
beg to say that this department has
never given out any information with
regard to tobacco, has never analysed
a sample Of tobacco and therefore any
statements that may be made must
come from some other source than
from the agricultural college of North
Dakota. l am practically as ignorant
OF the composition of tobacco on the
market as is the general public"
