ST.BERNARO'SB
DAMAGED BY
FIRE
Blaze of Suspicious Origin
Causes Loss Of About $1,000
Covered by Insurance.

Fires of unknown origin" are COM
Ing. to be an altogether too frequent
occurrence in the dual cities. st.
Bernard's convent, located on the west
limits of the city near the Winship
school, experienced one of this kind
this morning. Shortly before 1880
one of The sisters employed in the con-
vent discovered the interior of the
northeast wing mass of flames. She
Immediately telephoned the fire depart
ment. Julian Alrick, mail carrier,
observed the fire from his route on
Jenny avenue and sent in an almost
simultaneous alarm. BY the time of
the arrival Of the fire department mat
tiers had assumed most serious as
pect and for few minutes 1t, appeared
that the complete destruction Of the
building would follow. The ffremen
went to with a will, however, and I'M
der the instruction FROM Chief Runge
soon controlled the blaze.
The Mother Superior informs The
Evening Times that the loss, which is
estimated at between 81 400 and s., 900,
Is fully covered by insurance.
The fire, however, will severely en-
barrass the institution, as a consider
able portion Of the building must re-
main unoccupied pending the compile
ton of repairs.
St. Bernard's academy is recognized
as one of the foremost sectarian in
situations in the state. The religious
order which founded 1t and which has
control, has endeavored to maintain a
high standing both along educational
lines and in the arts. 1t is not improb-
able that large addition will soon be
built, in fact, the plans and specifica-
lions have already been drawn.
An investigation after the fire had
been put out shows that it had it's
origin in an entrance shed. There be-
ing no wiring there nor any apparent
source for fire, the thing has a rather
suspicious look about it.

Robbed Of Large Sum Of Money in

JOstlo at CrOOkstOn.
AS John Kelch of Pekin, ILL.,, was
passing through the door of the day
coach of No. 6, the Great Northern
passenger train from Williston to st.
Paul. he was jostled by three men, and
when the jostling process was over he
was minus 5000 in securities and $40
in cash-all he had with him.
There was such jam of people get
ting off that Mr.. Kelch did not get
look at any Of the three men. He
carried his purse containing his money
and valuables in his side pants pocket
and felt jerk, after which he discov-
cred his loss.
1t was Immediately reported to the
police, but he could give no descrip-
ton Of the men, and the officers were
powerless. Special Agent Britt of the
Great Northern boarded the train and
went to st. Paul with Mr.. Kelch in an
endeavOr to land the criminals, who
have been operating on the trains in
the northwest for some time past. Mr..
Kelch, accompanied by his wife, had
been at Lansford, N. D., where they
had completed a real estate deal and
were returning home with portion of
the proceeds. Mr.. Kelch is man of
IS years of age and had he been more
active might have escaped being
touched. The men are thought to
have followed the couple here from
Lansford knowing that valuables were
carried and Crookston was the first
station where it was dark enough to
operate.

ferent Points Last Night.
Between 10 and IL o'clock last night
fire was discovered in the planning mill
OF the Grand Forks Lumber company
IN the oil room. A hurried call was
sent to the fire department and the
saw mill was shut down and the en-
ployes rushed to the work of extin-
gushing the flames. No serious dam
age was done, though If the fire had
gotten any Roadway it would have
been difficult to have controlled it.
While the mill was shut down and
the hands all at the other fire except
the engineer and the man who hauls
the slabs from the gangway, fire was
discovered under the floor of the gang
way at the mill in place thoroughly
saturated with oil and in which It
would be almost impossible for fire
to start unless it were of incendiary
origin. 1t was discovered in time to
prevent any serious damage. 1t was
reported this morning. that man had
been caught at the mill with some fuse
On his person, but the story proved
untrue. 1t is the impression of the
majority of the citizens that the work
is being done by some disreputable
scoundrel and should he be caught he
would certainly be dealt with to the
limit. The impression is that a slow
fuse is being used and when the fires
start he is some place else. The bust
ness men are aroused over the matter,
as 1t not only Injuries the city but is
striking at one of the best Industries
of the community.

VACATIONS FOR THE
CARRIERS Of
R. f. D.
Law Passed at Last Session Of
Congress Gives Them a Fiji
teen-Day Rest Annually.

According to an act of the Fifty
ninth congress, all carriers on rural
free delivery routes in the country are
entitled to a fifteen-days' vacation each
year, beginning with the fiscal year
1906. The carriers will, of course, re-
ceive full pay for this period the same
as If the same services had been rem
dered.
At the present time the salaries paid
rural carriers are not as high as those
paid city carriers. the latter receiv-
ing 500 year more. The former
also do not have other privileges that
city carriers have. This may be ex-
planned in the fact that the rural free
delivery system is younger than the
city system, the former being estab-
lished only several years since. 1t is
now growing, however, with astonish-
ing rapidly throughout the entire
United States.
The different postoffices through the
country are being notified of the new
law, and the fiscal year having al
ready begun, rural carriers can begin
to look for their annual periods of
rest.

NORRIS BACK.
Finally Extradicted and Returned 10
Face Charges in Minnesota.

Sheriff Gonyea has returned from
Winnipeg, having in charge Blondy or
Edward Morris, about whom there was
been SO much trouble for the past five
weeks.
When Mr.. Gonyea arrived in Winni-
peg he found the warrant of surrender
had arrived there from Ottowa the day
before. He had no trouble whatever
in securing Morris. Sheriff Gonyea
was appointed by the Canadian gov
eminent officially to conduct Morris to
the border and from the border he
was brought into Crookston upon Mr.
Gonyea's own authority.
Those acquainted with the appre-
hension of criminals say that the five
weeks engaged in the securing of Mr..
Norris is very short time for the
red tape extradition.
Norris has not as yet denoted what
plea he will make to the charge, but
awaits the promised coming of friends
in few days from Canada who will
assist him in whatever plea he will
conduct.

halls where the finishing touches were
being put on the different exhibits,
but many of these displays will not
be entirely in place before late this
afternoon. In the agricultural hall a
small army of attendants and super
intendents were toiling and when the
booths and attractions are in shape
there will be very attractively ar
range interior to gaze upon. The
grains, grasses and vegetables were
installed this morning and present u
very fine appearance. In this building
the Grand Forks Fruit and Nursery
company has very fine display of
fruits and bushes taken from the
nursery grounds south of the city.
The U. 8. Separator company will
have its booth completed some time
this afternoon. They will have full
line of machines open to inspection.
The Guarantee Stock Food exhibit
promises to be one of the best ex-
hibits of its kind on the fair grounds.
The exhibit includes large assort-
ment of stock food in every shape
imaginable.
SCHOOL Exhibits.
The school exhibit in the center of
this building is attracting great deal
of attention, especially with the
young people who invaded the grounds
today. This exhibit consists of draw
ings and paintings made by the
school children of the county. County
Superintendent McLain is in charge
of this department, being assisted by
Mrs. w. l.. A. Calder and Marion
Titus. The children's corn growing
contest also came in for its share of
attention and some of the boys who
entered this contest have certainly
demonstrated the corn growing pro-
pensities of North Dakota. Several
special exhibits are also being in
stalled in the Agricultural building,
making this building one Of the most
attractive ones of the fair.

Valuable Horse Stolen,

A valuable mare belonging to Smith
& Sinclair was stolen from one of the
small barns which the firm is using
until their own livery barn is COM
pleted. The thief seems to- have
known the value of the animal, as he
passed one near the door which was
not so valuable and took the most
valuable one in the barn. A lady liv-
ing near the barn saw the man lead
ing the horse away, but supposed it
was someone connected with the
stable, and as the building is located
in the timber no one saw the animal
afterward and so far no trace of it
can be found. The animal is a bay
mare, with white face and one white
hind foot, thin tail and foretop trimmed
we'll, back, and weighs about 1850 to
1400: pounds. The firm purchased the
team after their recent fire and it was
one of the best in their entire outfit.
