OF
MIND
Saves Boys Life-Red Lake Falls
Boys Adventure-Cut Adrift ON Ice
Cake He Rides Through Apron on
Novel Craft.

Accidentally cut adrift on large
cake of ice. which whirled and eddied
in midstream toward the North Side
lam in the Red river, near the town
of Red Lake Falls, John Sch1esinger,
aged 16, saved himself from death by
remarkable pluck and presence of
mind and is today none the worse
for his experience.
He started across the river to cut
some brushwood and when about SO
feet from shore large chunk of ice
broke away and started toward the
apron of the dam. He chung to the
ice with tenacity seldom equalled
and made the descent of the apron
nicely, but when his unusual craft
reached the open water below and slid
with rush under the projecting ledge
of ice young Schlesinger abandoned
his refuge and swan to safety through
the icy water. Aside from a slight
cold, he is suffering no illness from his
frigid bath and the Exposure.

That Home Task.

Considerable talk is going on about
the matter of making pupils do their
school work at home in the evenings.
Different views are held on the subject
by different people and some good ar
guments are being put up on both
sides. One of the advocates for hav-
ing the pupils do their work at home
has the.following to say on the SUBJ
ject: Il think the idea of having the
pupils do their school work at home
is good one as It keeps them at home
after supper and prevents lot Of
mischief being carried on which other
wise would have happened. 1t is also
the best time and place for deep think
ing and better results are obtained
from the pupils all around than II they
had only short time in school to
complete their studies for the NOR
row. One who does not favor the
Idea, says: "The idea of making a pupil
stay IN y close school room all day and.

Hatch Paid the Fine.

County, Attorney Maybury received
notice from Judge Sullivan of East
Grand Forks that r. E. Hatch Of that
place, had paid the fine of $25 imposed
for selling blackberry brandy that
contained coal tar dye and salcylic
acid. The letter contained a request
that piece Of wool cloth, which had
been discolored with the foreign mat
ter, be sent here by the state chem
list. This was done and the piece of
cloth looks like the remnants of a

Evening Times Man at the Dacotah.

The w. T. Carleton Opera company,
which will present the celebrated COM

E. HEALEY HERE.
Promoter Of Electric Light Plant 1t
Red Lake Falls Has Plan.

E. Healey of Red Lake Falls was in
the city last night. He intends build
ing line for the transmission OF
electricity from Red Lake Falls to
this city, and will begin the work ut
an early day. He already has a large
dam at the Falls and his plan is to
build that two feet higher and put In
some additional turbines. His dyns-
moe will be connected directly with
these turbines go that there will be
no loss Of energy. The, circuit viii
be built Of heavy copper wire and will
be about thirty-five miles long. The
loss In transmission will be about
6h per cent, which will probably be
less than the cost of fuel. He expects
to apply to the city for franchise 10

tradition Papers.

J. l. Basham, the alleged hOld4up
man from Oklahoma, will go back TO
his native state tonight unless some
thing unexpected happens. Deputy
Sheriff Wynne Of Norman county,
Oklahoma, arrived in this city this
morning after having made the long
trip in record-breaking3 time. It
seems that big difficulty might have
to be overcome before Basham can
be taken to Oklahoma The kilograms
sent to Sheriff Bryant of Norman
county were sent from the Western
Union Office ON the West Side and
were headed Grand Forks, N. d. On
account of this the governor of Okla
homa thought that Basham was being
held in North Dakota and naturally
made out requisition to North Dakota.
II Basham takes it into his head to
make trouble, he can make Mr.. Wynne
go back to Oklahoma, secure requisi-
ton to Minnesota and thus cause many
dollars expense. 1t is thought, how
ever, that he will go along peaceably
and without the required papers, %
his sentence, If he is jailed there, will
be much lighter in consequence.
Deputy Sheriff Wynne speaks highly
of Basham's standing in Oklahoma,
and says that he is respectable
ranch owner and has plenty of money
to pay all the damages in the case of
selling mortgaged cattle. Basham,
when being interviewed, denied that
he ever made any statement that he
was wanted for highway robbery and
that it was some men staying at his
house who were the persons impli-
Gated.
"As to the selling of mortgaged cat
tle," he said, IF Banker Kinds, who
is making the complaint, had waited
few days longer until l could raise
the money to pay the damages all this
trouble would have been averted and
would be a free man living happily
with my family in Oklahoma today.
AS to my carrying the revolver, every
body in my part of the country car
ries one and sometimes tMo. I never
knew it was regarded crime to carry
one or wouldn't have had that one.
My father was marshal Tor ten years
in Oklahoma and owned that gun and
would like to keep it as keepsake
if the officials here, will give it to Mr..
Wynne to keep for me-"
Basham is very laxative and is con-
WINGED that he will be released In
Oklahoma when he pays all the costs.
He will probably be taken back on The
$3.50 train tonight.

The case Of the Aultman7 Miller COM
pany vs.. Andy Jones has been decided
in the supreme court of North Dakota
in favor of the plaintiff. Andy Jones
is well known in Grand Forks, having
been q resident on the east side for

The case was brought by the machine
company to recover $1,000 which II
was alleged that Mr.. Jones owed
them in the course of their business.
while he was handling their business
at Minot before he moved to Rugby.
This debt was denied BY Mr.. Jones
and the litigation resulted in which
he lost. The matter went to the su-
preme court and the lower court was
sustained. The amount involved II
only $1,000 but the case is of inter-
est owing to the bitter manner in
which it has been fought.
