The personal effects OF the man

BANK ROBBED At CROSBY
Story From Busy Williams Coun=
ty Town States That Cashier
was Made to Hand Over S7O0-
was Then Marched out of Town
at Point of Rifle.

A report OF a bank robbery at
Crosby, one OF the best OF the
new towns in Williams county,
came to Minot Thursday. 4
man claiming that he was in
Crosby at the time the robbery
occurred, told the story TO Officer
kimball. Whether the officer
was being "strung' or not re-
mains to be seen. The Indepen-
dent gives Mr.. kimball's version
OF it and our readers will have to
take the story for what it is
worth. Its agood one anyway
Two strangers armed W it h
rifles walked into one Of three
banks at Crosby Wednesday
morning last week, and one
leveled his gun at the c a $ h e r
ordering him to open the big
safe. The cashier started to
comply with the order. but stat
ed that as the time lock was on
he could not do SO. The fact of
the case is, that there is not a
time lock in Williams unity.
The cashier was then ordered to
open the money drawer and hand
over 500 which it contained.
Then he was marched out into
the street and made to walk out
of town ahead OF the robbers.
One had his gun leveled at the
cashiers head, while the other
had his rife carelessly swung
across his shoulders. They came
to a wire fence out of town, and
here they left the cashier. At
the other end OF the fence their
horses were tied. When they
started for their horses the cash.
ier started back to town and got
there before they reached the
horses. One of the crack rife
shots of the town crawled up
onto a barn with a long range
rifle, and picked Off one Of the
robbers Just as he was riding
away. He fell to the ground
with a bullet hole through him.
He reached for another shell but
had none. The other robber,
jumped from his horse, helped
his comrade back onto his ami
NAL and both were soon out Of
sight with the booty 1t reads
a little like Diamond Dick stories:
but could be true for all OF that.

GOOD HORSES ARRIVING
DAC0TAH BARBER
SHOP eu77Eo

The interior of G. F. Niehen-
hausen's barber shop. The Da-
cotah, was Quilted by fire Friday
night. The fire was caused by
the explosion of a gasoline stove
under the heating tank. The fire
laddies got around as soon as
possible, but the fire had done
much damage before they ar
rived. A. P. Slocum rushed to
the shop with a chemical tank,
and nearly succeeded in putting
out the fire. There was no in
surance on the place.
One barber chair was DESTROYED
and every glass was broken. The
water stand was put out Of bust
ness, and some looter, stole from
an employe, Vern Layman, a kit
of tools worth $25. The man
who )oots a burning building de-
serves to be fixed the way Gen.
Funston fixed the looters at
San Francisco-order them shot
dead. Some one with good i'll
tentions, carried the marble slab
from the wash stand to the &C.
ment sidewalk outside and threw
it on the walk breaking it into
smithereens. Just like the fellow
who threw the pitcher out OF the
window in fire and carried a
pillow down stairs.
The shop was not put out OF
business and the next day the
pluckv BARRIERS worked, notwith-
standing the fact that they were
handicapped.

Big South Prairie Farmer Who
Recently Died at the Hospital,
Had a Legal Wife at Omaha.
Second Mrs. Fuller May Put
in Claim for Services Rem
dered.

AS published in the Independ-
ent exclusively a few weeks ago,
Fred Fuller, the big South Prairie
farmer, who recently died at the
county hospital under peculiar
circumstances, was twice mar
ried. His first wife lives in
Omaha, Neb., where she has a
daughter Elizabeth, eighteen
years Of age. Two of Fuller's
children, Emma the youngest
daughter, and Freddie, the son
are dead. Fuller came to North
Dakota just after Emma's death
in November 1900, expecting to
secure a location, and send for
his family. He wrote to his
daughter, Gertrude, and sent
her money at different times.
He continued to do this until
about four years ago when he
met Miss Gertrude Stammen, and
married her. Fuller told his
second wife that he had been
married once, but that he was
divorced. 1t seems however that
he was never divorced. Attached
to the deposition from the first
Mrs. Fuller, is the marriage GER
tifcate dated Oct. Z, 1879, which
shows that Louise Burke and
Fredrick Fuller were married at
Alexander, Mo. A photograph
of Fuller and his first wife taken
twenty years ago, is attached to
the certificate. The picture of
Fuller is very natural. After his
first marriage, Fuller and wife
lived in Crawford county, Kansas,
where Fuller engaged in farming.
Later he drove a brewery wagon

and then ran a saloon in Nebr-
aska. He was fine rife shot,
and won number of medals,
which were considered worth
$1,000. The medals are now in
the hands of P. T. Haight of
Omaha, who has a mortgage on
them for $118.
Mrs. Louisa Fuller, of Omaha,
is being represented by Geo. Nc
Gee. J. ]. Coyle, the admins
traitor is being represented by J.
H. Greene, and Mrs. Gertrude
Fuller by M. j. Barrett.
The estate consists of a fine
l6O acre farm few miles south
of Minot, 60 acres of which are
broken. There is a mortgage of
$500 on the farm, but even then
the farm is worth So, 500. In ad-
dition there is a claim against an
attorney named Clark of Wyom-
ing but he cannot be located.
Tho personal property is said to
have been worth So, 400, but
most Of this has been sold. The
court has ordered the return of
this property. The horses will
be replevined, and the other pro-
perty is being located as fast as
possible. Some of the Fuller
debts have been paid.
It is said that one party took
$50 bushels of wheat from the
place, and the states attorney
informed the Independent that a
warrant had been issued for his
arrest.
No one questions the fact that
Fuller's legal wife is living in
Omaha, but the second Mrs.
Fuller does not like the idea of
working and Shaving on a North
Dakota claim for four years and
then losing all she has earned.
She will therefore put in a claim
for services rendered, and this
claim should and will be recogn.
lied. we believe. Mrs. Fuller has

MINOT SHOULD
'"''Sf Send 4 RELIEF

Nearly every city in the United
States excepting Minot, has sent
contributions to the suffering
city OF San Francisco. Nearly
400, 900 people are without food,
clothing, bedding and places in
which to sleep, and from all parts
of the country, relief trains are
being rushed as fast as possible.
When the terrible earth quake
shock came the water in the els
terms and wells disappeared, leav-
ing the city with hardly a drop
OF water. Many went without a
drop to drink for 36 hours, and
a good many drank from a dirty
mud puddle in the street. The
price OF a loaf Of bread went up
to IS cents and hundreds of rich
men could not get a bite to eat
at any cost. The loss OF prop
erty is in the neighborhood OF
$500, 100000 and it is hard to
tell how many lives were lost,
estimated running from 300 to
2OQO. The independent would
be pleased to see a fund raised in
Minot. All OF US could give
something, and every cent is
raised, will be appreciated by the
suffering people ofSan Francisco.

Anil Schmahl. aged 42 years
and single, was kicked by astall-

Des Laos Saturday evening about
$50 O'Clock. and died four min
utes later. Schmahl, who was a
cripple, was afraid OF the stallion,
and lead the animal at the end
OF the rope. The horse playfuny
kicked at the man, striking him
over the temple crushing the
skull.
The remains were shipped to

New Kind of Flax.

Thousands Of Minnesota far
mers will grow a new variety Of
fax this year.
The grain was originated last
season by the state experiment
station and the United States
Department Of Agriculture.
The new flax last year yielded
26 per cent more to the acre than
the old grade, and over 1000
bushels were grown in the state.
The new flax is from five to ten
days earlier than the old, which
gives it a considerable advantage
in escaping damagefrom various

Examining City's Books.

The city council has employed
George Morrow and Owen Nc.
kone to examine the city's books,
and ascertain Minot's financial
condition. AS the books extend
back to but the time Of the burn
ing of the Great Northern depot.
IN October 1904, it will be a hard
lob to ''strike a balance AS
near as they can ascertain at the
present, Minot has about 500
in her treasury. The present ad-
ministration hopes to keep a
strict account ofall finances, and
publish a report occasionally,
that all may know how much
and in what manner, the money
is being expended.

The Best String Of Horses Ever
Exhibited in the West to Race
at the July Races at Minot-
What the H0rsemen are Now
Doing.

A number OF drivers nave ar
rived in Minot with strings Of
fast horses and are working them
out on the excellent track OF the
Minot Racing Association south
OF town. Minot will be the CEN
ter of attraction for horsemen OF
the state this year, and when the
races open on July 3, there will
be the best lot of horses ever ex-
hibited in the state.
Dan Alleman from Williston is
here with half dozen good
horses, including Pearl Heart and
Billy Prunes. Alleman will han
die John Moore's mare, Nellie NJ.
P. H. Lilly of Maxbass will
bring Milo with a record OF 2:O9A.
This famous horse carried off all
the laurels in Iowa last season
and the other horses should
shave a care this year. Lilly
will also bring a good promising
green PAGER.
Rupert Parker from Decorah
Iowa, will soon arrive with L. S.
Champine's wonderful little ami
NAL, "Baby Kid" This horse
made a most excellent record
through Iowa and Illinois last
season. Baby Kid has a mark
of 2:1OA. Parker will also ham
die Cresence, 2:14H, and Jean, a
trotter with a record OF 2:1S.
He will also have Gayosa, 2:19A;;
three green PAGERS and one green
trOtter.
Kenyon from St. Paulwill ham
die D. A. Dinnie's ''Trouble' this
season. Troubles mark is 2::24HH
but he has showed his ability to
step it in 2::1O. Trouble has been
trained at Williston. and stepped
a half mile on the ice in 1:O1.
Mr.. Dinnie will also spring a
green 9pacer this season which
will make the others sit up and
take notice.
John Moore bought "Gray
Ghost" from Geo. O'Dell. The
animal cost him a big figure, but
can step along some. Gray
Ghost will be kept in Tom Mul-
loy's stables this season, Mulloy
will handle a FLY OF his own, be-
sides several head OF A. p. Slo-
GUMS.
Several parties are figuring on
some good horses from the east.
Horsemen may look for quite a
surprise within few days.
The July races will be the best
ever. They begin July 3, and
last three days, including the
Fourth. The citizens OF Minot
will gladly give into the associa-
tion for this day, and will likely
celebrate, but in the forenoon
and evening. The races for the
three days will be as follows:

How to Grow Corn.

In speaking Of corn culture in
the North, James Holland in his

his excellent nursery at Bismarck,
says that ground should be
plowed early in the spring, har-

week until May 20 or 25, then
plant. Four days after harrow.
Harrow three times before corn
gets too large. Cultivate but
once. Do not cultivate any after

Another Line to Minot.

The Independent has heard the
report. which seems to be quite
we'll founded, that the Great
Northern will enter Minot from
the southeast, with a new road
running parallel to the 500. The
g. \. has purchased from the
Northern Pacific a part Of its
line, intending to extend the line
to Granville, connecting with
the Sherwood branch. 1t was
planned to erect a large brick
depot at Granville. This plan
has been given up now, and Mi
not will very likely get another
road from the southeast.

Crosby Bank Robbery Genuine.

It seems that the CrOsbV bank
robbery was genuine. A later
report to the Independent states
that two men, one OF whom was
Tom Ryan, and the other a
stranger, entered the bank of
Williams county at Crosby about
10 o'clock in the morning, and
demanded OF the cashier the mo-
new. He, pretending to open the
large safe, closed it and locked it.
He said the time lock was on,
but had to give the money which
was in the till, 500. The men
took it. and left for the west.
They have not yet been caught.

GROWING SIGNS OF REVOLT.

Several of our exchanges,
notably the Denver Democrat,
have been claiming that very
little support was being given to
the independent movement in
Denver for a more representa- We
democracy. We thought it quite
possible that the customary abuse
of Senator Patterson was doing
some work in restraining those
who seek to rid the party of Boss
Speer.
But in last Sundays News ap-
pears interviews with such men
as Senators Clayton, Ward and
Seldomridge, A. w. Grant, of
Cripple Creek, host of others,
all men known for years as the
very brain and Drawn of the party
and strange to relate all demand
the retirement of Messrs. Speer
and Evans.
Judging by this we believe the
independent movement is gaining
ground. These men are known
for their conservatism. They do
not take leaps in the dark. They
know that further catering to
Denver corporation influences
will take the state into entirely
new hands.
Yes, the Democrat is in error.
The move for reform is taking SO
strong a hold that nothing can
stop it. Better get into the band
wagon while there is yet time,
Bro. Barkhausen. Emulate the
example of the star manager of
Denver politics. Unload the
dead ones. We saw a cartoon of
Bill Evans dumping Stidger, Will
liams and others the other day.
Load up the Speer and other
corporation tools and throw
them on the scrap heap. They
can no longer serve revivifed
democracy.
