! We clip from the Boston Herald OF
August 80 the following about the
death of Mrs. Pickering, a daughter
of a well-known native of this town:
Mrs. Lizzie Wadsworth Pickering,
wife of Prof. Edward O. Pickering,
director of the Harvard observatory
and professor of astronomy at the uni
versity, died late yesterday afternoon
at her residence in Cambridge. Mrs.
Pickering had been i'll for some time.
She was the daughter of Jared Sparks,
the famous historian, who was the
first Mclean professor of history in
Harvard, and who was president of
the college from 1S49 to 1853. She
was born In Cambridge on May /,
1856. Her education was provided
by private tutors and private schools
in Cambridge and Boston. On March
8, 1874, she was married to Mr..
Pickering, who even then, a Rradu-
ate of nine years, was we'll known as
an astronomer. He was at the time
professor of physics in the Massa-
chusetts Institute of Technology, but
two years later, in 1876, was appoint
ed director of the Harvard college OBJ
servatory and professor of astronomy,
and since that time has had his resi-
dence on the observatory grounds.
Mrs. Pickering took for herself the
supervision of the garden plots ON the
grounds and became an expert In
Horticulture. She had for many years
entire charge of the gardening there,
and the observatory grounds We'd with
the botanic gardens in the matter of
floral display. Up to few years ago
she was one of the most energetic of
the ladies of the faculty who institu-
ted the university teas for the col.
lege students in Brooks House on Fri
day afternoons. Her gracious presence
and superior conversational powers
made her all object of attraction at
those gatherings and endeared her to
many Harvard men. She went abroad
in 1898, 1886, 1900 and in 1901.
She is survived only by her husband. "

THRU WINDOW
Burglar Robs P. Rosenzweic's
Establishment on DeMers
Avenue.

Sometime between midnight and
daylight this morning, said by a next
door neighbor to have been about 2
a. m, the pawn shop of P. Rosenzweic
on DeMers avenue next the bridge,
was robbed, the thief gaining an en-
trance through window from which
he had previously broken and removed
the glass.
The valuables taken were all in a
show window bordering the street and
consisted in the main of watch chains,
lockets, lodge buttons, opera glasses,
compasses, etc. Their owner esti-
mates the total value of the goods
taken at between $50 and $35.
Rosenzweic, when seen this morn
ing, to use his own language, was
vera unsatisfy" with the proceedings.
ut makes ME SO mad,' said he, that
l can hardly talk. And the truth of
the statement was easily born out,
something like a half an hour being
necessary to worm out the facts in the
matter from the victim.
The police are at work and believe
they can land the thief before he
leaves the city. The glass which was
removed to permit of entrance had
been cracked for sometime and the
removal was a simple matter. The
slight noise made was heard by Rosen-
zweic's neighbOr.

BURGLAR IS CHASED
BY CITIZEN IN
SHIRT TAIL
s. L. Knapp Gives Hot Chase
to Night Maurauder en- Des-

One of the boldest burglaries in the
history of the city was committed this
morning about o'clock. when the
residence of s. L. Knapp was entered
at two different points and 81 in cash
and a silver watch were taken.
The burglars first effected an en-
trance by climbing on the veranda and
removing screen from the window,
the sash of which had been left hoist
ed. He entered room where four
men were sleeping and took the watch
and money, but missed about 81 in
change which was lying on the same
table from which the watch was taken.
None of the slumberers knew of the
entrance, until they were aroused by
Mr.. Knapp as he chased the burglar
from the rooms down stairs. After
leaving the upstairs, the burglar re-
moved a screen from the kitchen win
dow and entered the lower rooms. Mr..
Knapp was sleeping in one Of these
and was awakened by the intruder and
gave chase He was pursued through
the window and down the street, and
at one time 1t was thought Knapp
would land his man as he was not
more than six feet behind him and
unhampered by any clothes, was CIV

burglars wind was the better, how

of the criminal has been found, lot

INDICTED ''25''
Federal Grand Jury Makes
First Report to Judge Ami
don Thursday.

The federal grand jury. which has
been in session at Fargo for more
than week, made its first report to
Judge Amidon last evening. Twenty
five indictments were found, none of
which were made public, owing to
none of the parties indicted being in
custody. 1t is said that several of the
indictments were land fraud cases, a
number postoffice matters and most of
the remainder for introducing liquor
on Indian reservations and illicit SELL
ing of liquor. The>iury also reported
that its work was not concluded. 1t
is expected, however, that the work
will be wound up today and the jury
will make its final report some time
this afternoon.

brough attached 1t to house bill as
an amendment: This brought it to
conference committee of which the
senator was chairman. Three confer
ence meetings were held before the
house conferees would yield. After
that the secretary of interior took a
hand against the measure. The author
of the bill saw this difficulty and went
to the president direct. Meantime the
bill disappeared for some mysterious
reason, and the senator found it just
in the nick of time. While the search
was in progress, Major Lacey, chair
man of the house committee, being a
disinterested party, got the secretary
to withdraw his opposition, and the
bill was signed.

Buildings Decided Upon.

The Hamm Brewing company will
erect building of pressed brick on
the corner where the Blue Light
saloon was located. The building will
be 7Ox75, one story and full basement.
1t will be connected with water and
heat and will be thoroughly modern.
There will be three rooms fronting on
DeMers avenue. The corner will be
used for a saloon. and one OF the
others for barber shop. The other
one has not been rented. Judge Sulli-
van will soon have plans prepared for
a building on his lot Immediately east
of the Hamm building. While the plans
are separate, and the building will be

DISCUSS COLLEGE.
PROPOSITION ON
SATURDAY
State Baptist Convention to
Hear Report of the Commi-
tee Tomorrow Morning.

On Saturday morning the state Bap-
fist convention and Ministerial union,
now in session in this city, will take
up the proposition and discuss the
feasibility OF establishing Baptist
college to he RUIZ in connection with
the state university similar to the
plan proposed for Wesley college. A
committee appointed some time ago, of
which Prof. V. P. Squires of this city
is member, will make report on
the proposition and at that time de-
cisiOn, either final or tentative, will
be arrived at.
"One thing certain" said Rev. F. E.
R. Miller to the Evening Times today,
1.-The college. If established at all, will
come to Grand Forks"
Rev. Miller In recent sermon in
his church in this city strongly advo-
Gated the founding Of an institution
such as that proposed. At that time
he said:
THE time has come for the Baptists
of North Dakota to devise ways and
means for the realization of this edu-
'cational ideal. We believe in light
and progress. We have some iron of
conviction to be worked into the ANAL
gamated Christian product of the fu-
ture, and We must not fail to realize
these solemn obligations. My hope
and my determination is to work for
the establishment of Baptist college
in affiliation with the state university.
We want, as denomination. not an
insignificant guild hall supported by
this local church, but a creditable
schOol-a Sturgeon college, or Rog-
err Williams college. situated on nice
piece OF land adjacent to the state
university campus. And believe that
the ministers and laymen of our
churches in the state will not prove
either unequal or hostile in the real
ization of so worthy an object. God
give us big hearts for large things!"
