A Rather Peculiar Crime
That Of Last Week In Bleigh Murderer Att
Flies Off Fly-paper.

Bismarck Tribune: A horrible MUIR
der and suicide occurred at a farm
house In the northeastern part of this
county Wednesday night, the dead be-
ing brothers.
In a At of probable insanity Lucie
Scheltgen shot his brother Emil in
the back of the head with shotgun
loaded with buckshot, breaking his
neck and killing him instantly. He
then attempted to kill his brother Glow
is, but the latter made his escape. The
frenzied man pursued Clovis short
distance from the house and then nut
the muzzle of the gun to his mouth
and blew a frightful hole in the top
of his head. Death mus, have been
instantaneous.
Four years ago Emil Scheltgen CAME
to this county from the west coast and
located a claim in section 2-142-75.
Shortly afterwards his three brothers,
Clovis, Lucie and Camil, also came
from the west and I.llcie located a
claim adjoining Emil's and the other
brothers located near quite recently,
in fact had not yet got upon their
lands and were therefore living with
and helping the other brothers. The
house where the homicide occurred
was located upon the line dividing
the claims Of Lucie and Emil. each
living in his own part, and as far as
can he learned, in way farmed to-
gether. They also owned some sheep,
and 1t is probable that the fear of
losing his share OF the proceeds of
these sheep was the idea that caused,
in part, the insanity of Lucie.
Some sheep had been sold and Emil,
against the wishes Of Lucie, as near
as can be made out from the disconso-
late brothers, who can speak little Eng
lish, went to Steele to get the money
and pay some bills This proved not
entirely satisfactory to Lucie. who had
been acting rather strangel' for a
day or two, and he lost much sleep
over it, though no open rupture &C.
Cured between the brothers.
Tuesday night Lucie was not at the
house when bed time came and Camil,
one of the surviving brothers, found
him in the sheep pen muttering to
himself. After some parleying Lucie
went to the house. but could not be
induced for some time to get to bed,
ohu uullAE IllS
kept all of them awake. He did not
go to work Wednesday but remained
about the house. his brothers noticing
many queer things about him. which
they attributed to his loss of sleep.
Wednesday night Clovis and Emil
came in from the field and the latter
went to the house. where Lucie was
getting the supper. Noticing that the
meat was burning, Emil told his
brother to put water on it, but instead
Lucie picked up a piece of flv paper
and began picking the flies from it.
Emil then went to the barn. return
ing in few minutes Clovis then
heard shot from the hcuse and ran
to the door just in time to catch the
falling form of Emil in the doorway
AS he did SO Lucie. who was standing
in the house with smoking shotgun
in his hands, said: You are no better
than him." and raised the gun to his
shoulder to shoot Clovis. The latter
quickly dropped his dead brother ana
ran around the house and hid behind
little knoll near by Lucie followed
short distance and Clovis says hi
heard two shots, but was too scared

CROP YIELDS.
Wheat will Not Be a Large Crop
Along the River. =

Threshing activity reigns over the
farms between Fargo and Grand
Forks. From the car window in
northbound train last night, The Fo-
runs travelling correspondent counted
eight threshing rigs at different points
on the east side of the track, and for
miles, as far as the eye could see,
were seen scores OF blazing straw
stacks.
Attorney -Carmody informed The
Forum that the general average in
Trail county would be small, although
some fields were producing big re-
turns.
On the big Preston farm at Blanch-
ard, 1000 to 5000 acres. there were
yields of from twelve to twenty-five
bushels to the acre and the anticipa-
ed average would be about sixteen
bushels. So far the wheat was going
fifty-nine pounds to the bushel.
From the Clark Dalrymple farm at
Hillsboro come different results. This
farm, about LOO acres, suffered from
hail, and it is stated that the average
yield won't exceed five bushels to the
acre and weight fifty-seven pounds.

SEC. WILSON u|SkGREES
WITH JAMES ]. HILL

Associated Press t. The Eseniss Tines.
Washington. Sept. liver since
the publication of the somewhat pes
stmistic address made by James ]. Hill
at the Minnesota state fair the secre-
tary of agriculture has been receiving
appeals to reply to Mr.. Hills inquiry,
How shall we feed the 200 .OOO. 900
Americans viii will in fifty years con-
stitute this nation?" Secretary Wilson
consented today to discuss the subject.
and his views, coming from a practi-
cal farmer and an economic philoso-
pher OF no little renown, will he read
with especial interest.
Il have read Mr.. Hills article said
Secretary Wilson. land regard it as
q complete and statesmanlike paper.
He outlines the situation with accur-
acy and an ability that nobody less
familiar with the national interests
could have applied.
with regard to the exhaustion of
wood oil and coal, the farmer will
meet that. Congress has taken the
first step in granting free alcohol, AMI
this department is at work learning
what can be done to develop its posi-
bilfttes. The chemists are working at
big cannery in Illinois to learn how
to produce alcohol cheaply from the
bi-products of that business, and an
expert has been sent to Europe to
study and bring back supplies of seed
for production of the big stock pota-
toes raised there for alcohol and stock
food. 1t Is like the ordinary edible
potato we know, but will give twice
the alcohol from the product of an
acre. Still other experts are studying
the uses Of alcohol for heat and pow
er. l have no uneasiness about the
prospective lack of coal and oil.
AS to the approaching exhaustion
of iron, would not add to what Mr..
Hill has sand; he Is an expert in that
line and am not"
The Secretary would not attempt to
combat the seriousness of the danger
of exhaustion of iron. but his chief
aid, Dr.. Galloway, of the Bureau of
Plant Industry, offered an interesting
suggestion:
Will Use Iron Less.
Eve build our cities of iron," he
said, "and make them ungainly, I'M
slightly, uneconomic; some day we will
do as they do in>wiser countries. limit
strictly the height of buildings to, say
six floors, and make 1t no longer an
object to build them of iron. Then we
will draw on the soil with its mex
haustible clay and stone for building
materials. Look at our new building
for this department-five stories high
and not. enough iron to make set of
Darrell hoops in it. reinforced con-
crete construction. 1t will last for

Mr.. Hill says, that the British grow an

NOT EARNING BUT SAVING.
IL What Creates q Competence
Thrifty Greeks on Section.

Thrifty Greeks on Section.
The Rolla Star has the following
pertinent suggestion which is worth
serious considerations:
There were issued at the Rolla post
Office last week five 800 international
money orders payable In Greece. The
orders were purchased by section
hand on the Great Northern at this
place in favor Of his father. The
purchaser earned the munificeht sum
of $3.50 day. He and his brother
lived frugally. perhaps. too cheaply-
but they saved their earnings, and now
their father living in that far off
country will in few days receive the
comfortable sum of $500. 1t is not
earning but saving that builds homes
and buys farms and makes bank ac-
counts. A man who earns $4,000 a
year and spends $5.001 is bankrupt,
while a Grecian section hand who
saves something from his $3.50 day
is laying the foundation for compet-
ence in his declining years.
