G. H, Langmo Taken by Police
Officer at the Postofice
.... Yesterday.

G. H. l.angmo Of Princeton. Mimi.
was arrested yesterday afternoon at
the postoftice in, this city by officer
Coan of the local nolice force land
turned over to Sheriff, Harry Shotley
of Princeton who has been on the
mans trail for some time. LangmO
was taken back on No. in, the after
noon and made no denial OF the
charges.
The arrest of I.angmo was accom-
plished in a clever manner and reflects
credit upon, the efficiency, of the local
force as well as the officer making
the arrest. - 80. .r.i 'r...
Sheriff Shotley has been on the trail
of the man for some time, and spec
ial detective has Swallowed him iron,
Minneapolis west to Minot, and finally
traced him back to this city where the
local force was notified Of his being
in this vicinity but yesterday.
Sheriff Shotley has been here since
Thursday but failed to locate the man.
Officer Coan of the local force to
whom the case was assigned, dropped
in at the postoffice Sunday at about
10 o'clock and stood near the general
delivery window. When a medium
sized stranger approached the window
and in low tone called for mail ad-
dressed to &c. W. Langmo." the officer
was near by and following his man to
the doorway quietly informed him that
he was under arrest. what for?"
was the query Of Langmo. Forgery
at Princeton, Minn.," was the firm re-
ply. II thought that matter was set
tied up" remarked Langmo but after
a talk with the officer and subsequent
conversation with the sheriff who was
informed of the capture Of the man.
he agreed to return to Minnesota and
was taken back as stated. Langmo
is a land man and has conducted ex-
cursions from Illinois and Iowa into
the western country. Just what the
nature Of the alleged forgeries is could
not be learned, but It is said they are
in connection with his land deals and
are forged checks to a considerable
amount upon the National bank Of
Princeton. 'stsfFa 80

With the wheat movement but a
few weeks away. the Great Northern.
Northern Pacific and 500 railways are
making every effort to be in shape to
handle what is predicted will be the
largest crop iii the history Of North
Dakota. Last year there was a, great
increase in the number of cars sent
west for the grain season. but this
year there will have to be almost half
as many again. If accounts from differ
ent parts Of the grain growing Sec
tions are true.
The Great Northern, which will
probably haul out as much and more
than the n. P. and 500: together, has
already begun moving its cars west
ward. The officials of that road aver
that during the current April. May and
June the company's freight business
increased almost so per cent over that
for the corresponding period in 1905.
On account !of the heavy business
over the main line in some sections.
the company is already building dou-

A double track is now in course OF
construction between Devils Lake and
Churchs Ferry and will be completed
by the middle of August at the latest.

III, Soak him.. Mob him! Throw the

These were the cries to be heard at
the Great Northern depot this MORN
ing when Detective Walsh of the Great
Northern, with little or no provocation,
at least to all appearances, made a
brutal assault upon local gambler
by the name of Quinn. whom he de-
sired to arrest. Walsh claims that

lodged him In the county Jail.
There came near being riot on
the depot platform. Dozens of men.
travellers and others. standing nearby
and witnesses to the proceedings, were
exceedingly indignant at what they
termed an ,pncalled for assault. When
a member Of the local police force put
i'll an appearance upon the scene,
they wanted him to arrest the derec.

Quinn WAS later in the day brought
into justice court before Judge r. J.
Purcell. The formal charge against
him was. vagrancy. of which the court
found him guilty. Sentence was sus-
pended. however and the accused was
notified that he must leave town.
One report has it that the real rea-

lies in, q. personal grudge held by the
latter against the former. Another re-
port is that Walsh accuses Quinn of
short-changing a passenger on a train.
Even admitting that Quinn be guilty
of everything charged, there can be no
excuse for such cowardly assaulting
of man when that individual offers
no violence himself. City police Off

denim Walsh's action this morning.

!; MEETINGS IN PACKINGTOWN.
Gospel Preached While Slaughter
i; Went, On Around Worshippers.

"The Gospel in the Chicago Stock
yards" is the theme Of an article in
The Christian Endeavor World, by Ru-
fns s. Simmons of Chicago, showing
that an unusual series of meetings has
been held in Packingtown, which num-
bers $4,000 men, women and children.
Mr.. Simmons says:
The Presbyterian churches of Chi
cago and vicinity recently held shop
meetings for ten days, at the noon
hour, in about sixty different centers
throughout the city. One hundred
and twelve meetings were conducted,
and on one day seventeen were held.
About two hundred ministers, laymen
and women engaged in the work. A
large MI mber of these persons had the
privilege of speaking to the toiling
thousands in the stockyards Of Chi
cago.
Fifty meetings were held in the
yards, with. an attendance Of about
eighteen thousand persons: The 5000
copies Of the Gospels, in English. Pol
ish. Bohemian and German, were not
half enough to supply the demand;
everywhere the workers were eager
to secure copy. The men on the kill
ing floors came forward, wiping the
blood from their hands. and formed
in line to receive the books. which
they carefully folded up with the
programs and tucked away inside their
coats. When the supply Of Gospels ran
out. they begged that copies might be
brought the next day.
All who labored in this field spoke
1T the intense desire to get hold Of the
Bible. the anxiety to secure It being
greater at the second meeting than
at the first A fbrewoman at one of
the women's meetings said very earn
estly: 81 want one Of those books SO
much. Won't you bring me one to-
morrow" She was asked. do you
know what book It is?" Her reply was.
Eyes. It is the Gospel Of John. and
want It because I have no Bible, not
even part Of one"
During the two meetings held in
another establishment on the hog kill
ing floor water was dropping from
above on the speaker, the singer and
the coronet player: and, with the ma
chinery running most Of the time. and
the bloody work bf cutting up the hogs
going on al about. It was difficult to
hold a religious service.
Six meetings for women were con-
Quoted. with an attendance Of TWENTY
eight, hundred. These were all adj
dressed by women exceDt one. when a
Polish speaker talked in their native
tongue to nearly eight hundred girls.

Well Known Cartoenist.

"Billy" Newton, the popular travel
ing man, who has, however, gained
more fame as q cartoonist than as
knight of the road, was an over-Sun-
day visitor in the city. Mr.. Newton
has made" this country for something
like twenty years past and Of late,
through the development and recogni-
ton of his talent as a pen and ink
artist, reaped large income. His
caricatures in the Minneapolis Tribune

recognition but considerable in the
way of remuneration.

wellmaa's Present Prospects,

Having taken one load of freight to
Spitzbergen for Mr.. Wellman, the
Frithjof has gone back to Tromsoe,
ON the coast Of Norway, for the explor-
er and his flying machine. The captain
of Mr.. Wellman;s ship reports having
encountered heavy pack ice during his
recent voyage, and in the press dis
patches which mention the matter un-
favorable opinions are expressed re-
gardtng the one now, to be under
taken. :, -
Tromsoe lies little below the 10th
the Spitzbergen Archipelago, Mr.. Well
mans immediate destination, lis just
about the 80th parallel, and Is almost
due north of Tromsoe. They are only
about six hundred and fifty miles
apart; and under favorable circum-
stances the distance could be traversed
PEELED" by, steam. The delay due to
the necessity for wedging path
through floating ice, however, must add
greatly to the time required to reach
Low Island. In 1901, when Mr.. Bald
win went to Franz Josef Land in the
America, the Frithjof was his tender,
and, 1t deposited certain supplies for
him without much trouble. Two years
later Mr.. Ziegler's secretary tried TO
make the same voyage In the Frithjof
to relieve Mr.. Fiala, Mr.: Baldwin's
: successor, but he could not effect a
landing, though he made two attempts.
The rescue of 1904 was effected with
another vessel, the Terra Nova, pos-
sibly stouter. ship and equipped with
: more powerful engines; but her
: success was probably facilitated by a
reduction, in the density of the ice
barriers. At. any. rate. II the Frithjof
has been able to'land material In Spftz-
bergen once this season, there is every
reason to think that she will be able
to do So again, and certainly without
more delay than before.
I Several months ago It was an
nounced that Mr.. lWellman intended
] to get away from Tromsoe about, June
70. He Is apparently a fortnight be-
hind time, therefore. Yet, unless he
should be seriously retarded in his DrO-
gress during the next two or three
weeks, there would be no occasion to
worry about his success. When he
once sets foot on Low Island he; must
devote himself to two tasks. His air.
ship should be put together, and it
ought to be carefully tested. Mr.. Well
mans plan allows ten days for the trip
from spitzbergen to the Pole and back.
1t is all important, then; that he should
learn before he departs If the gas bag
of his ship will retain its buoyancy
for that period Of time II his gas gen
Grating plant is ready when he arrives.
