FARMERS CLUB MET.

The meeting of the Polk County
Farmers club, which was called first
at the new school building at Crook
ston on the experimental farm, but on
account of the fact that it was not
completed, was changed to the city
hall of that city, was held there yes
terday, being attended by a fair dele
CATION of the agriculturists of this
section. The program that was print
ed some time ago was followed very
closely and there were some very in
teresting numbers.
The address of VIM. Robertson in
the afternoon on What the New
School of Agriculture Will Teach,"
was one of the features. This SUBJ
ject is one that every farmer in the
Red river valley is interested in, and
Mr.. Robertson explained in detail just
what courses would be followed.
On account of the delay in erecting
the new agriculture high school as
it was called by Mr.. Robertson, the
first term will not open till next Oc-
tober as the time that it could be at
tended this season before the spring
work commences would be very short
now. The regular plan will be to
open the school in October and con-
tinue the term till the latter part of
March and in this manner those who
are employed on the farm will not be
taken away from their work. The
course that will be offered to young
ladies was also explained by Mr.. Rob-
ertson in full.
There will be another meeting of
the Polk County Farmers club on
February 10, when discussions on
practical subjects will be given. A
stereopticon has been secured and
views will be shown which will Nus
trate subjects that will be taken up.

much talked of man in certain law

resident of Crookston and said that
he wanted to buy some land. MUIR

show him certain tracts of land and
when he found out that he was de-
tective which was late yesterday after
noon wanted Jones to refund his mon

repeated his request. Jones then
made an insulting remark and from
the report of bystanders Jones made
reach for his gun. The onlookers
prevented him from drawing it how
ever and he then went over in the cor

Oceans of maline are being used to

The new sailor hat looks great

very narrow, but when the back is
filled in with maline and a jaunty
quill or pair Of long wings caught at
the side the effect is all right. BY the
way, quilts are counted among the
smartest trimmings for hats to wear
with tailored frocks:

CLOSE CALL TO
DEATH
Member Of State Legislature Seeks
Shelter From Storm in Haystack-

seth.
Many citizens will remember
Hon. d. Lemieux, one of the. bright
members of the last legislature, there
fore the following will prove of in
terest:
DR.. d. Lemieux of Dunseith, had a
decidedly narrow escape from death
during the storm last Saturday night.
Early in the evening he and a driver
with livery rig started out to visit
a patient south Of town, when they
lost their bearings and after driving
nearly three hours found themselves
In the outskirts of the town. They
drove to the barn and another driver
volunteered to take the doctor to his
destination and another start was
made, but with no better success, as
they soon lost the road and were UNI
able to locate themselves. They Sc
cured the team in the shelter of
haystack, and after making them as
comfortable as possible, proceeded to
dig hole into the stack to obtain
shelter until morning. The driver
awoke first and called to DR.. Lemieux,
who did not answer, and was appar-
emily unconscious. 1t took some time
and vigorous and heroic treatment to
arouse him, and get his blood circu-
lating. He was then placed in the
sleigh and driven to John Fausts'
house, which was near by, where he
was taken care of until able to be
taken to Dunseith. The doctor had
one foot badly frozen, but it is not
thought that the results will be seri-
Gus. The fact that DR.. Eemieux had
lost his sleep for three nights previous
to this trip, and his long exposure
during the storm, made his experience
in the haystack extremely hazardous.

A Citizeni believe that the police
force of Grand Forks should be put
on a civil service basis. l believe that
Chief Lowe was entirely right in an
interview in The Evening Times some
weeks ago when he said that the
force spent too much of its time talk
ing and mixing in politics. We don't
hire policemen to run political ma
chine. They are better policemen
when they hold their job by faithful
service rather than by the number of
votes they can turn to the successful
candidate. think it was high time
that the matter was taken up by the
city council.
Prof. Hoverstad: Grand Forks is
rapidly becoming city. cannot help
but note the improvements made from
time to time as l visit the city. You
are forging to the front and will make
one of the best cities in the north
west in the years to come.
Don McDonald: The meeting of the
North Dakota Duneral directors is
matter of education. Everybody in
the state should take an interest in
the gathering. 1t means better service
in time of death and sorrow and the
more the public understands of the
duties of an undertaken, the more they
will be able to intelligently cooper
ate with him.

BARK WILL BE SOLD
Judge PurneIl Makes Order for Sale
OF tie Norwegian Bark "Launber-
ga'-Vessel Is Now Lying at South
port.

In the United States court yester-
day an order was made by Judge Pur-
nell for the sale Of the Norwegian bark
Launberga to satisfy claims against
the vessel for alvage, the vessel hav-
ing been pulled off of the Frying Pan
hoals by the steamer Joseph Wharton
and towed into Southport. The sale Is
to take place on the 18th Of December.
The vessel went aground just after
the severe storm which swept the
North Carolina coast On the 18th of
September. In the storm the lightship
on the Frying Pan shoals was driven
from her station and this is what is
said to have caused the bark to go
aground. The Launberga is vessel
of about 1900 tons and was bound
from Pensacola to Rio de Janiero with
a cargo of about 100000 feet Of yellow
pine. She was lying in - most peril
Gus position when the Joseph Whar-
ton went to her assistance and it is
claimed that but for the timely assist
ance OF the Wharton that the vessel
would have gone to pieces. A few days
after the vessel was tOwed into South
port, the Cape Fear Fisheries company,
which company owns the steamer
Joseph Wharton, brought suit against
the bark for a reasonable amount of
salvage. 1t was thought at first that
bond would be given and the vessel re-
leased but it seems that the owners
have decided to act otherwise. The
vessel and her cargo are quite valua
BILE
The suit was instituted by Messrs.
Russell & Goodman who are attorneys
for the Cape Fear Fisheries company.

A TREMENDOUS INCREASE
Bell Telephone Company Had Only
500 Subscribers in Wilmington i'm
1900 and Over 1900 Now-1S6 Tel
ephones Installed During Month Of
October.

The business of the Bell Telephone
Company in this city mas increased
enormously during the past few years
and this is an excellent way Of telling
the progress of the city. It has been
but a few years ago since there was no
long distance telephone here, the line
having been installed in 1902. The
local Office now each day has a large
number Of long distance calls.
The number of telephones installed
during the month Of October proved a
record braeker, it being 1S6. There
are now more than / GOO local subscrib-
ers. During the past six years the
growth Of the company has been as
follows: 1900, 500 stations; 1901, IT'S
stations; 1902, $50 stations; 1903, 1000
stations; 1904, 1,150 stations; 1905,
1900 stations. The year 1906 is not yet
ended and it is more than probable that
a number OF other subscribers will be
added during the next 60 days.
