MISS H0J0

Grand Forks entertained for a few
brief minutes last evening the 17-year-
old daughter of member of the Jap
anese nobility, Miss HOBO, youngest
child of Count Ito HOBO, a member of
the mikado's advisory council, and as
pretty little Japanese girl as heather
American ever made eyes" at. Miss
Hobo was bound from Chicago to
Japan, and her mission is sad one.
She is taking home to the land of
flowers the remains of cherished
brother who last week died in Chica-
go, the result, it is claimed, of nervous
breakdown from over-study. The
young man and his sister have been
studying in one of Chicago's leading
institutions of American learning. Ac-
cording to the little Jap girls travel
ing companions-girl friends with
whom she formed an acquaintance
upon the train-she not only talks
f'uently the American and German in
addition to her native language, but
sings we'll in both.

Owens company, both Of Minneapolis.
The decision involves an alleged in
fringement of patent on what is known
as tanning mill. which has been the
product of the Twin City Separator
company since early In 1901. The mill
is designed especially for the separa-
ton Of oats from wheat
In many sections oats and wheat are
grown together, because a better stand
is obtained and chinchbugs are avoid
ed, and in other sections wild oats
are found growing among the wheat.
Pin oats are also something which the
wheatgrower 10 anxious to get rid Of.
and this tanning mill is manufactured
and sold for that purpose.
The ]. L. Owens company began put
ting a tanning mill on the market in
September, 1904, selling it in cOmpeti-
ton, with the other mill. and the suit
for perpetual injunction was begun
by the Twin City Separator company
In January, 1905. The granting Of
this perpetual Injunction by Judge
Amidon this morning carries with It
also an order calling for an account
