PREPARATION WAS HARMLESS
HOWEVER AND ALL ENDED

BOWBELLS, N. D., Aug 2O.-The
mistake of a druggist gave Sheriff J.
]. Lee of Minot the fight of his life
The sheriff arrived here yesterday af-
ternOon, Mrs Lee having accompanied
him as far as Carpio, where she left
the train and drove out ten miles to
visit a sister.
Shortly before leaving Minot the
sheriff went to drug store to get a
prescription compounded for Mrs. Lee.
When he arrived here he received a
telegram from the Minot druggist stat
ing the wrong bottle had been given
him and cautioning him against allow
ing Mrs. Lee to use it, The sheriff, of
course, jumped to the conclusion that
the phial he received contained a
deadly poison, and Immediately began
seeking for way to reach Carpio be-
fore his wife could take the drug.
An automobile was pressed into SER
vice and was soon whizzing along the
road to Kenmare There a second auto
was secured and with it the sheriff set
off at fOrtym ile-a n-hour clip for the
home of his sister-in-law.
He arrived there shortly after mid
night, only to find that his wife had
taken the medicine five hours before
However, the dose had no harmful eff

the sheriff's nerves no harm had been

DREDGER WITHOUT WATER
Crane Flat Dredger Cannot Work Un-
til Suit is Settled.

GRANITE, Aug. 20.-There is trouble
brewing in this section over the Lu-
cas- water right, which takes water
from Bawldy lake and Crane creek on
the Granite creek slope. This water
right was purchased some time ago
by Wheeler & Co., from the First Ma
tional bank of Sumpter. Last week
A. P. Jones of the Magnolia mine made
arrangements to secure water for his
mill through the Lucas ditch, and the
taking of this water from Crane creek
cut off the water supply of the Crane
Flat dredge and compelled the boat to
stop work The owners of both the
Lucas water right and that used by
the dredge say they have the first
claim to the water, and it may take a
decision of the courts to settle the
question of which has the first claim.

world. Commercial rivalry will be at
the bottom of the struggle, which will
be the most terrible the world has ever
seen.
I'm such an event the army and navy
would not avail the country much" he
continued. The United States has
about per cent of the commerce of the
world and other nations have the rest.

handed against them ALL 1t will have
its inception in commerce, and the
United States and other nations will be

cent only Of all commerce. 1t will
seem to others therefore that they have
a 81 per cent right to the canal against
this cOuntry's 3 per cent. Struggle is
inevitable"
That the struggle he foresees Is not

he says, class commercial interest in

is certain. Then will begin the great
