BUSY TINE M SIGHT FOR SKULL
VIII spellbind, Prsctlce Law, Coach
Ball Team and Spank Kids.

Skull Skulason will become a rival
Of President Roosevelt, so far as
strenuousity is concerned. Besides
having large and lucrative law prac-
tice to look after, he is candidate
for the legislature, and will in short
time begin an active fight for votes.
Just what course the political plans
will take will depend upon the action
of the county central committee. 1t
is not improbable, however, that there
will be some spellbinding, and as Mr..
Skulason has proven his ability in
that direction. he will in all probable
ity have good share of the work.
He will also be coach for the high
school football team, q position which
In a measure was thrust upon him.
He has filled that position for num-
Der of years and when the team be-
gan to talk business this year he was
pressed to accept the position again.
So strenuous did this become that in
time he agreed to make a formal ap-
plication for the position to please the
boys, but made his price considerably
higher than he thought would be paid.
To his surprise his application was
accepted and he was given the place.
Another testimonial to his ability in
this particular Is the fact that his
application was based upon an agree
ment that the team would get out at
$3.50 in the morning and work for
an hour. SO that it would take as
little time from his professional duties
as possible. This the boys were only
too glad to do. and with the enthusi-
asm which they have shown in his
coaching, 1t is evident that there will
be something doing.
When asked If he was not laying
out rather strenuous campaign for
the winter, Mr.. Skulason stated that
the early rising did not bother him,
and that the work would merely give
him an appetite.

BEES EXCELLENT PROFIT MAKERS
c. L. GRADER Notes Success With His
Italian Honey Producers.

c.. L. GRADER of this city is becom-
ing quite bee fancier, and now has
an apiary which makes good returns
for the labor, of the dainty dish which
Is In Tennessee the toothsome condi-
ment of buckwheat cakes. A few
years ago he purchased a colony of
Italian bees and from this parent COL
ony has now quite number. Occa-
sionally he sells few colonies, but
depends principally upon the honey
manufactured for the revenue.
The bee is something of a profit
maker as he, or rather it-not only
supports itself but on account of its
industry provides large supply of
food which 1t cannot consume and
which is appropriated by man for his
own use. The only thing the bee asks
is sufficient material from which to
gather his stores and security against
the rigOrs of winter and he will do
the rest. Mr.. GRADER lets nature look
after the, first of these conditions but
has provided a cellar in which the
bees are placed during the winter to
protect them against the inclemency
of the northern winter.
The short season is the only serious
drawback to the profitable raising of
bees in this country. They are like
politicians-they work as long as the
season lasts. and If they have seven
or eight months of sunshine and flow
ers they will occupy the entire time,
and of course lay up larger store
than would be possible in season of
only four months.

With his face covered with blood
from flesh wound, his hair dishevel-

Trembomee, Greek employed by the
G. N. in their coal sheds. rushed up
to prominent young society man
who had been out to party last even
ing and was returning about 1880,
uttering these words in frightened
voice, almost breathless from his
rapid fight from his pursuers.
The young Greek told a story of
assault upon him by two others of his
nationality in his room in a small
shack in the district near the round
house. According to him, he was rude
ly awakened by feeling set of hu-
man teeth sunk into his shoulder and
receiving a vicious thrust from a
pocket knife blade held in the hands
of one of his assailants, which one he
is unable to state.

ficer returned towards the house
where the attempted murder occurred
and met the belligerants Greeks COM
ing in pursuit of their proposed VIC
tim. They were taken into custody
at once and brought before Judge Nc
Laughlin this morning.
An investigation of the story told
by the complainant developed that
there had been row among the par
ties and that in the melee his face
was severely scratched and bruised,
but the knife story was repudiated
and in fact the entire story of an as
sault while he slept is discountenanc-
ed by the court.
A fine of S. and costs on the charge
of assault and battery was imposed by
the court and paid.

PICKED UP HIS SEVERED arm
Wonderful Nerve Of q Ray Farmer
Could Not Defeat Grim Death.

John Johnston. a well-known Ray
business man. was a visitor in the
city today. He reports that John La
joie, the young man who few days
ago had his arm severed by the sickle
bar of moving machine. is dead Of
blood poisoning.
Lajoie was moving with machine
hauled by a yoke of oxen. He was
fixing the machine when the animals
suddenly started and the raised sickle
bar came in contact with his arm,
severing 1t below the elbow.
Lajoie. who was but 10 years old,
showed wonderful nerve after the ac-
cident, picking up the severed member
and with the blood squirting from the
stump of his arm, starting to walk
to the house.
He fell exhausted before the house
was reached, but managed to attract
the attention of the inmates. who
came to his assistance. The fact that
there was rust on the sickle bar is
supposed to have caused blood poison
ing.

FRED MULLEN HAD A LUCKY BUMP
G. N. Brakeman knocked From Under
Car Wheels at Bathgate.

Fred Mullen, a Great Northern
breakman employed on the run to
Bathgate, came very near losing his
life there yesterday and owes his es-
cape to rather severe jolt he receiv-
ed in the head from one of the box
cars which he was attempting to
couple.
1t seems that Mullen had gone in
between two cars to make a coupling
when in some manner his foot slipped
and he was falling head first between
and under the cruel wheels, when his
forehead struck the moving car and
the blow hurled him backwards sew
eral feet with bleeding wound in the
head, but safe from injury beneath
the wheels. Had he missed the car
in his fall he would undoubtedly have
been ground to pieces under the
wheels. He is at his home in this
city, and while his wound is painful
it is not considered serious. His es-
cape is a remarkable one under the
circumstances.

sixty AND WAS BORN At PEMB|NA
Jos. Rolette, Famous Indian Interpre.
ter, Here Last Night.

Joseph Rolette, Jr., son of Joseph
Rolette, for whom the county of Ro-
lette and the town of Rollette, this
state. were named, was visitor in
Grand Forks last evening, enroute
from Belcourt, Turtle mountains, to
Morris. MIMI, where he is taking
them in the Indian school at that
place.
Jos. Rolette, Jr., though apparently
a man of about SO or 40 years, is now
past his sixtieth birthday. He was born
on the goth day of August. 1886, at
Pembina. This was in the days be-
fore there was Dakota or Mime
sofa, when this was a vast and, ex-
cepting for war-like Indians and fur
traders, uninhabited territory. Mr..
Rolette and Jud LaMoure were chums
in their younger days. The former
ia of pure French extraction, his grand
father being born in France and his
father in Wisconsin. Jos. Rolette, the
senior, now deceased, was close to the
heart of the federal government In the
days of the Indian troubles and acted
as q peace-maker and go-between on
many occasions. In fact, 1t is said,
that Jos. Rolette on four different oc-
casions prevented what had been
planned for a wholesale massacre of
white settlers.
The Indian children who go to the
school at Morris are educated at the
expense of the federal government,
and, at the completion of a three year
term, or when they shall have COM
pleted the eight grade, they are per-
mitted to enter the Morris high school
and finish course there.
The children of Jos. Rolette, Jr, are
scattered all over the country in the
employ of Uncle Sam. One son is as
sistant to the agent of one the Okla
homa reservations, a daughter is en-
gagged in somewhat similar work in
Washington, and SO on.
"Sixty, yes-but feel as young as
kid" said Mr.. Rolette at the Great
Northern depot last evening as he
did little French heel and toe," just
prior to the departure of his train.

Sheriff Oppegard of Barnes county,
accompanied by John Mcnamara of
Valley City who knows the notorious
Lone Star Kid or Blackie, wanted for
the Valley City murder, arrived in the
city this forenoon at about IL o'clock.
They were met by Chief of Police
Franklin, Deputy Quigley and others
and went at once to the city Jail,
where the two men, Frank Carski, ar
rested by Deputy Quigley and Jack
Smith, taken by Chief Franklin and
Assistant Chief Buckley, are being
held.
1t was trying period in the lives
of the two young men as they were

prison corridors and inspected by the
sheriff and his assistant. Both bear
a striking resemblance to the notori-
GUS Blackie. In fact, Smith, the man
taken by Chief Franklin, so closely re-
sembles him that the sheriff at first
thought 1t was the right man the DO
lice had corraled. Not so with Nc
Namara, who has known the Kid for
some time, and though the resem-
blance was strong, he shook his head.
Not the right man." were his words,
and he is probably the best able to
identify the much-wantei murder sus-
pect of any one obtainable at the
present time.
Sheriff Oppegard was thorough in
his inspection of the men. Up and
down the corridor they were made to
walk, every feature closely scrutinized,
the scars on Carski, said to resemble
those known to be carried by Blackie,
were scrutinized closely, but the re-
suits were as stated. The men are
innocent of the crime.
The suspects were then taken to
Judge Sullivan's court, where another
inspection was. made and the Judge
drew up certificate for each which
will serve as safeguard in case of
other arrests upon suspicion, as they
are pretty certain to be subject to un-
less they shake the soil of this section
from their shoes.
The two men bore the inspection
without flinching. but they were re-
lieved when it was over. Both stated
that they knew they could clear them
selves of the charge and did not wor-
ry, but it has been a ticklish expert
ence few would care to go through.
After receiving their certificates they
departed at once, and it seems prob
able that they will keep going, judg-
ing from the letter Carski wrote to his
brother in Ohio and puhliahed in the
Evening Times of last evening, he will
get out of North Dakota as soon as
possible.
Sheriff Oppegard states that his
search for Blackie has taken him over
considerable territory. He went to st.
Paul, only to find that the man held
