already long list Of attacks on women,
that has resulted in, the holding of ten
men to the criminal court in the last
week. was added Ito yesterday after
noon, by a bold daylight assault on
an open prairie. The victim of this
latest attack was Mrs. Henry Sigler,

scene was near the corner. of Erie ave-
nue. and Ninety-ffth street. Five hours
later Edward Flannery, 10 years old, 90

The woman was crossing the prairie
when a young man who had followed
her seized her and began dragging her
to a hollow. She fought hard and
screamed loudly, and man whose name

the assailant to flight. Mrs. Sigler was
bruised, and her clothing almost all torn

FOUND DEAD IN A BARN.
No

never before in the history of
this community occurred such
a shocking accident as that of
the death of George Schlener.
Friday morning the sad news
was spread that he was dead.
His remains were discovered
about 8 o'clock in the morning,
in Molitor & Hoffman's barn in
a stall, under the horses feet
and were quite badly bruised
from the stamping of the horse.
Coroner Dunn was notified
and he arrived on the noon
train. DR.. Dunn assisted by
DIR. Lalonde examined the
corpse, and could. find no evi.
dences of foul play. Their post
mortem examination revealed
a number of wounds sufficient
to cause death. The coroner
concluded, that an inquest was
not necessary, that death was
caused by an accident. How it
happened will probably for ever
be a mystefy.
Mr.. Schlener was seen alive
the last time by a neighbor,
who saw him go to his house
about II o'clock Thursday
night. He lived alone In his
house and was a painter and
decorator by trade. Mr.. Schlen.
er was fifty years and eight
months old at the time of his
death.

Mistaken Identity

Mistaken Identity
The alleged resemblance be-
tween Rev. Edmands and a
man ma med O'Brien, who
formerly conducted a store at
Wahpeton, 10. believed by
friends of Rev. Edmands to
have been responsible for the
report that the Wahpeton min
lister who disappeared so
mysteriously some time ago,
was alive and well in Winni-
peg. Il 10 suspected that the
writer of the letter from Win
nipeg in which the announce
tnent was made that Rev. Sd
mands was alive, saw O'Brien
Ia Winnipeg, and learning that
he was from Wahpeton, at once
jumped to the conclusion that
he5was the missing minister.
Nothing further has been
heard from the Winnipeg man
and this bears out the theory
which is generally accepted by
Rev. Edmand's friends. 1t is
supposed that he has discover
ed his mistake.
O'Brien left Wahpeton under
peculiar circumstances about
the time Rev. Edmands disap-
peared 90 mysteriously. Mr..
and Mrs. O'Brien and the
Edmands family were frequent
~ together and gossip has con-
nected the names of the men,
bers of the two families recent
ly without foundation, however,
as it appears after a careful in
vestigation.
About the time of Rev. Ed
mand's disappearance, it was
reported in Wahpeton that
O'Brien had had serious trou-
BILE with his wife. The report
was generally credited especi-
ally as O'Brien left Wahpeton
soon after, leaving Mrs. O'Brien
in possession of his property.
Some time later Mrs. O'Brien
closed up the business and left
for st. Paul. On the same train
was Mrs. Edmands. This fact
was noted by the curious and
tongue swagged to the effect
that O'Brien and Rev. Edmands
were together aud that Mrs.
Edmands and Mrs. O'Brien
were to join their husbands.
It has become known in
Wahpeton that OBrien is now
in Winnipeg and it is suspect
ed that Mrs. O'Brien> has join
ed him there. The trouble be-
tween husband aud wife is ex-
planned as part of a rre .arrang-
ed plan to put creditors to a
disadvantage:
The report. that Mrs. Sd
mands is in Winnipeg has not
been given credence. It has
been established on good
authority that she is now in
the east. M.
The disappearance Of Rev.
Edmands still remains a COM
plete mystery and is furnish
ing a field for many amateur
slueths who are daily advanc-
ing theories. The generally
accepted theory is however,
that the minister was drowned
ia the Red river and that his
body will be recovered when
the Ice breaks up in-the spring.

Myhre of Colfax, were re-elect-
ed 40 president and secretary
respectively.
'lhe theme "Recent School
Legislation" was taken up.
Mr.. John Phimister of Brand
.enburg gave the report of the
committee on legislation ap-
pointed at the last meeting.
Last February this committee
recommended the passage of
several bills then before the
Legislature and also some fur
ther charges in the school law.
These recommendations were
sent to each of the eight re-
personalities and senator from
the county, aud some of the
measures became law.
Supt. Black called attention
to some of the new features of
the school law, and the 1905
compulsory attendance law
was taken up. State Supt.
Stockwell was present and
gave a clear Interpretation of
this law, and also defended the
law doing away with third
grade certificates in 1908. It
was the opinion of several
present that this law was to be
made effective too soon, as we
are short of teachers yet in
cluding those holding the third
grade certificates. The meet
adjourned before this discus.
sion was completed.
The half hour from 80 to
200 p. N. was spent in inspect
ing the equipment of the State
Science School. The roll call
was the first item of business
in the afternoon after which
the president announced
the committees; on legislation,

Johnson, Sheyenne.
Mr.. L G. Smith, of Grand
Forks, then addressed themeet-
ing on Heating and ventilat-
ing the School House." He
showed the imperative need Of
good ventilation as we'll as
equally distributed warmth.
He explained the Manuel
Smith system of placing the
stove in one corner, and by
means of a jacket receiving
fresh air from outside the
school house, and a foul air
dratt-pipe from near the floor
connected with the chimney, q
circulation of pure warm air
could be maintained with no
exposures of the pupils nor
waste of fuel. His address was
interesting and convincing,
and received good hearing.
Mrs. Moll sang a delightful
solo, and State Supt. Stockwell
was introduced. He spoke of
the rank sof North Dakota in
education. There is the great
est wealth per capita in North
Dakota of all the states of the
Union, and it is surpassed in
wealth of daily wage per capita
BY only two states, these being
two states of the New England
group. With all our splendid
wealth and high rank in
education, we are not adequate
~ and proportionally providing
for the school children Of our
country districts. We are die
posed to be q little too econo-
mical in our expenditures for
rural schools. An evidence of
this. take the official statement
Of the school tax levy in, Rich
land County for the present
year. This shows that the
villages and citiea are villino
