anniversary of Mr.. and Mrs. S. l..
Harris and in commemoration of the
event about twenty-five friends were
invited in to spend the evening. The
game of $500" was played for
several hours -lady's and gents head
prizes being awarded-at the conclusion
Of which delicious refreshments were
served. The color effect was of green,
and the shamrock, harp and clay pipe
were much in evidence. The 18th of
March is not only the wedding an
niversary Of this blithe young couple,
but is the date Of Mrs. Harris birth
day, as well as that of sister and

Mad Dog Scare at Glendale.

Glendale people have been consider
ably worked up the past week over a
mad dog scare. The fine bird dog of
B. S. Hodges was thought to have the
rabies last Friday and was Immediately
killed along with some other dogs that
had been bitten. Orders were given
by the authorities to kill all dogs not
chained up and all CANNES running at
large were shot on sight. It is re-
ported that one Of P. Kings dogs was
acting somewhat peculiar two weeks
before and was dispatched by the
owner.
There have been cases of hydrophobia
at Hecla, Forman and Wahpeton this
winter, and it behooves all owners Of
dogs in this vicinity to be extremely
careful. If human life was not en-
dangered we would like to see a scare
in Oakes. There are a lot of worth
less ours hanging around the city, and
half an excuse to shoot them would
maybe rid the community of the
nuisance. There is always room fol-
good dogs, but there should not be any
for ours.

L. M. VAN BUSKIRK
COLDLY MURDERED
Shot by J. B. Hazlett in Butcher
Shop at Geneseo
Deed Was Committed a, Result Of Old Feud in
Which Woman Is Said To Have Fig.
ured...hazlett Gives Himself Up

The little village of Geneseo, on the
Great Northern in eastern Sargent
county, was shocked last Thursday
morning by the news that L. M. Van
Buskirk had been shot and killed in
cold blood by his neighbor, j. B.
Hazlett, who went Immediately to
Forman and gave himself up, and was
placed in Jail. The shooting occurred
in the butcher shop of Fred Foaman,
who was the only eye witness. Foaman
accompanied Hazlett to the county seat
and is being held by the authorities,
pending an investigation.
It was brought out in the coroner's
inquest that Hazlett had attempted to
ALLEVIATE the affections of Mrs. Van
Buskirk from her husband and to go
with him. Threats had been made on
both sides, and it was found that the
murdered man had a six-shooter in his
pocket, all chambers loaded, and that
no attempt was made to use it. The
charge is manslaughter.
The case was taken before Justice
Bradley, but on an affidavit of preju-
dice it was transferred to Justice For
mans court. The case will be heard
next Monday.

THE FOURTH GAME
GOES TO M. 7. S.
Making a Tie Between That Team
and Oakes Anchors
-Four Fast and Furious Games Of Basket Ball
and Each Team Gets Games Played
on Home Grounds

The Anchor pirls played the fourth
game of basket ball with the M. T. S.
girls at Glendale Saturday night. Ow-
ing to lack of railroad connections,
rough weather, sickness and the men,
bers being scattered the Anchors were
at great disadvantage. One regular
player was left home sick, one Travelled
from Fargo arriving late, one drove
from Fullerton and one from Oakes
arriving twenty minutes before the
playing began. There was a large
crowd out and one third of the already
small playing space was occupied by
spectators. The small oval left af-
forded no chance for open play or team
work.
The handicap the Oakes girls were
under entirely untitled them to take
part in what proved to be the toughest
game of the season. Weight and
physical force were the prime factors
of the unequal struggle and in the end
prevailed, the M. T. S. team winning
"a to 13. The Anchors were game to
the last ditch and both subs were
needed before the game was over and
did excellent work. Considering all
the trying circumstances, (mentioned
and unmentioned) our girls did re-
markably we'll to make 13 points. The
games between these teams stand two
and two and there will be no more this
season.
The M. T. S. boys team won a fast
and exciting game from the LaMoure
High School team during the first part
of the evening, 80 to II.
The teams were made up as follows:
M. T. S.-Center, Florence Cortrite;
forwards, Jonet Hatfield, Nina DeWolf;
guards, Emily Covert, Amy Risk.
Anchors-Center, Marie Kissack;
forwards, Rhoda Mccartney, Florence
Shabino; guards, Maude Tyrrell, Pearl
Tyrrell. Subs, Mabel Tyrrell, Cora
Moore of the high school team.
A most enjoyable banquet and enter
tainment was given the visitors from
LaMoure and Oakes after the games at
the dormitory and the welfare of our
girls were looked after very cordially.
The matron, Miss Skundberg, and sew
eral of the students, meriting the
special gratitude of our players.
Sheriff Drew was more than kind and
accommodating and rendered the use of
his Office at the court house for dress
ing room and hospital purposes.

Fine Block Is Completed,

The Klein & Sutmar block will soon
be finished from cellar to garret. w.
w. Good finished the plastering on the
upper rear rooms last week, and all
that remains now is some casing to be
done by the carpenters. These rooms
are finished with the new kind of
plaster-made of gypsum, asbestos and
wood pulp--which appears to be far
ahead of the common plaster for this
country, as it is less liable to crack.
There are forty-three rooms upstairs
and nearly all are already rented. The
basement floor is finished in cement,
and with the white washed walls it
looks like a real tidy place.

San Jose Scale

A number of small family orchards
were examined in and near Parksley
and some of them were found to be
badly infested with San Jose scale.
This dreaded insect attacks all kinds
of fruit trees, many of which it kills
in a few years. IN fact, it is useless
to try to grow fruit in an orchard that
is infested with this pest unless it is
sprayed in the most approved man.
ner. Full directions for treatment aye
given in bulletin 141. Any one de-
String to know whether or not their
orchard is infested with the San Jose
scale, can cut some of the twigs and
forward to this Office by mail, and we
will be glad to determine them.

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy the
Best rlade.

In my opinion Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is the best made for colds,
says Mrs. Cora Walker, of Porter
vile, California. There is no doubt
about its being the best. No other
viii cure a cold so quickly. No other
is so sure a preventive of pneumonia.
No other is so pleasant and safe to
take These are good reasons why it
should be preferred to any other. The
fact is that few people are satisfied
with any other after having once used
this remedy. For sale by
