LOST SOME TOES.
Ride Swiper Had His Foot Caught a
Grand Forks.

Grand Forks, N. D., July 1S.--In the
district court before Judge John r.
Cowan, Devils Lake, the action of Ar
thur Goldstein VS.. Grand Forks Tran
sit Co., will be taken up for trial.
This action was brought against the
street railway company for the recov-
cry of damages in the sum of $500
for personal injuries received several
months ago.
Arthur Goldstein is a minor, and the
suit is brought by his father, Harry
Goldstein. The complaint alleges that
through carelessness on the part of
the street car company the boy had
his foot pinched and one or more toes
removed. The street car company
will claim that the boy was not a
passenger on the car, and that for
several blocks he had been jumping
on and off the car, making consid-
cradle of nuisance of himself in so
doing. A number of the passengers
on the car will be called as witnesses
and the trial of the case will occupy
the court today and probably all of to-
morrow.

TRIED TO LICK HIS SON BEFORE
HIS SWEETHEART.
In the Struggle Pane of Glass Was
Broken and the Boy Plunged Piece
Into His Fathers side-oId Man
May Die.

New York, July 1S.-During a quar-
rel between Conrad Schirmer and his
19-year-old son, Conrad, at the home
of his sons sweetheart, Miss Clara
Lazarus, on East One Hundred and
Fourth street today, the youth stabbed
his father with piece of broken
glass, inficting probably mortal
wound.
The elder Schirmer several weeks
ago ordered his son to cease paying
attentions to Miss Lazarus but the
youth had become engaged to her
and his mother pleaded his cause. The
father then consented that the boy
should marry the girl when he was
21, but Schirmer declared that Con-
rad must stop staying out so late
nights when calling on his sweetheart.
Last night the boy remained very late
and the father went there in search
of him.
When the father attempted to chas-
tise his son in the presence of his fl
ance the boy resisted and In the strug-
gle that ensued the father broke
through the glass pane of the door.
Miss Lazarus attempted to interfere
in behalf of the boy and Conrad seiz-
ed a piece of broken glass and plunged
lit into his fathers side inflicting a
dangerous wound. The wounded man
was removed to a hospital but refused
to make a charge against his son, Con-
rad, who was arrested.

st. Petersburg, July 1S.-The politi-
cal barometer is again falling. The
confusion which seems to have taken
possession of upper spheres since the
efforts to form a coalition ministry
failed, coupled with the alarming re-
ports from the interior and the attI-
tude of parliament. make almost any
thing possible.
There has been a mixed renewal OF
apprehension that this may end In
coup d'etat against parliament.
The assassination of Vice Admiral
Chouknin and General Koslov and the
discovery that behind the murder of
the general was a big plot to kill, not
only General Trepoff, but Prince Pu-
tiatin and other courtiers, the general
epidemic of assassination which has
terrorlzed, not only the local authorl-
ties, but even the police, together with
the wild destruction of property by the
peasantry in a half dozen provinces
during the last few days, have again
strengthened the small part of the
court which believes in resorting to
extreme measures"
The adoption by the lower house of
parliament Of an address to the coun-
try will, 1t is feared, place in the hands
Of the reactionists the needed lever to
move the emperor.

st, Petersburg, July 19.-Dispatches
from the interior continue to tell with
out interruption, stories of burning of
manor houses, robberies, murders and
collisions between the peasants and
the rural guards. The center of the
peasants uprising is Voronezh pro-
vince, where peasants in their mania
for destruction of property do not dis
criminate between friends and enemies,
as evidenced by the complete devasta-
tion of the estate of M. Kokoshkine,
one of the most prominent constitu-
tional democrats in the lower house.
Today's reports describe the situation
as almost as bad in Poltava and Smo-
lensk provinces. In Tambov province
eighty peasants are reported to have
been killed or wounded by the drag

Minnesota Wardens.

Minneapolis, July 1S.-Minnesota
game wardens have arrested Charles
Il. Wolfe, states attorney of Richland
county, North Dakota, for violations of
the game laws committed in 1903. T.
III. Jones of Fergus Falls made the
arrest at Moorhead. Mr.. Wolf will
probably pay heavily for his sport in
Minnesota woods. He was arrested in
1904 for hunting deer without license,
and fined $3.50. but released on bonds
pending an appeal. The Judgment was
sustained by the supreme court, but
Wolf did not return to the state or pay
the judgment. lie has since his arrest
settled the old offense for $147. He lis
also charged with having taken more
deer out of the state in 1904 than the
law allows, and is willing to settle for
that on basis OF SIS.
The charge is brought at Aitkin, and
a third one is pending, of the same
nature. IL Wolf does not settle it, he

PREDICTION MADE BY THE NEW

Slayer Of Stanford White To BE Sent
to Hospital for Criminal Insane and
the Notoriety of Trial Will Be
Avoided.

New York. July 1s.--The World
says:
Harry Thaw will never be placed
on trial for the murder of Stanford
White. Application win be made for
the appointment of commission to
inquire into his sanity. There is no
doubt that he will be declared insane
and sent to the hospital for the Grim
inal insane at Mattewan.
District Attorney Jerome is not ex-
pected to interpose any serious OBJ
lection to the appointment of a COM
mission to inquire into Harry Thaw's
sanity. Some of the alienists retain
ed by the district attorney have re-
ported to him their belief that Thaw
is mentally irresponsible. Many friends
of Stanford White have asked the dis
trict attorney to consent to such a
disposition of the case rather than
have the notoriety Of trial.

BURGLARY AT WILLIsToN.
Jewelry Store Said to Have Been Loot
ed by Professionals.


Minot, N D., July 18.-Word was re-
ceived in Minot last evening of the
burglary of large jewelry store at
Williston yesterday. 1t is said that
practically everything in the store in
the way of watches, rings, diamonds,
gold and silverware, was taken.
The Williston police have no clue to
the burglary and have instructed the
police of surrounding cities and VIII
lagos to arrest all suspicious charac-
ters. From the clean sweep that the
burglars made, 1t is thought that they
are professionals. They seem to have
completely covered their tracks.
The exact amount of the loss has
not been ascertained, but 1t will prob
ably be in the thousands sof dollars.
Practically everything Of value In the
store was taken.
The burglary furnishes further evi-
dence of the fact that band of pro-
fessional hold-up artists are operating
in the northwest The police believe
that the Williston band is connected
with the band Of holduD artists who
have been operating extensively in
North Dakota recently.

NATURALIZATION LAW.
First Case Since July at Grand
Forks-May Be IIIeaaI.

orks-May Be Illegal.
Grand Forks, N. D., July 1S.-Judge
J. F. Cowan this morning in district
court issued citizenship papers to Ed
ward Hoser, a former subject of the
sovereign of Norway, he having made
the customary declaration of alleg-
lance to the republic of the United
Staes, etc.
In this connection comes the state
ment of we'll known local attorney
today to the effect that Mr.. Hoser's
citizenship was not acquired legally
not because of any omission upon
his part, but for other reasons.
The new federal law which went in
to effect July 1, provides that the at
torney general of the state shall, after
the applicant has given a ninety day
notice of intention to become a citi-
zen, be present and investigate in per-
son the qualifications of the candidate
for citizenship on the date of hearing.
The witnesses shall be present to tes-
tify.
Clerk of Court Spalding states that
heretofore it has not been customary
to give any notice of intention by pub
lication, the applicant simply comes
into court with his witnesses, and the
qualifications being according to the
specifications of the law, duly takes
the oath and is given his papers.
"If that new law went into effect
on July /, as / understand it did, said
Clerk Spalding today, then Hoser's
citizenship will be open to question.
have sent for copy of the new law
but have not yet received it."
The records show that Mr.. Hoser
was the only applicant for papers
since July l.
