Saratoga, N. Y. The vote on the loca-
ton consumed almost two hours. Sew

The encampment passed a resolu-
ton providing that its commander-in-
chief communicate with General S. D.
Lee, commander Of the Southern Vet
Grams association, and express the
hope that the erection of a monument
to Henry Wirz near Andersonville
prison be not attempted.

PARADE OF VETERANS
FOURTEEN THOUSAND HEROES
OF THE CIVIL WAR IN LINE
AT MINNEAPOLIS.

Minneapolis, Aug. 15.-Fourteen
thousand veterans of the Grand Army
braved the discomforts of a long
march and participated in the fortieth
annual parade in connection with the
national encampment of that organ
ization. Before the parade was over
fully a score of marchers were pros
trated from heat and exhaustion and
two of those stricken died within an
hour. The fatalities were Thomas A.
Martin of Washington, senior vice
commander of the department of the
Potomac, and Colonel Charles W.
Heating of New Orleans, commander
of the joint department of Louisiana
and Mississippi.
The parade was a notable affair as
such things go, we'll handled, quick
moving and inspiring to see. Every
p%recaution that could make the parade
a success for the veterans and the
spectators was taken by the authori-
ties. The line of march, two miles in
length, was wired off, nobody being
able to obstruct the column for an in
slant. Hours before the scheduled
the streets were filled with spec
tators and during it's progress they
were packed solidly with cheering, en-
thusiastic humanity. The parade it.
self, which was organized by depart
ments, formed at 9 O'Clock and moved
exactly one hour later. The column
about three hours in passing a
given point.

ITEMS OF A WEEK FROM vAp,o,.
PARTS OF THE STATE.
Authorities OF Ward County confroD,
ed by One of the Greatest Mur.
der Mysteries In the His.
tory Of the State.

The authorities of Ward county o.,
confronted with n of the Creates
mysteries that ever has attracted tho
attention of the police in that part =,
the state. Apparently a woman hs.
been murdered and her body disnosoS
of so that no trace of it has yet been
found. The scene of the supnosod
crime is somewhere between Whit
Earth and Tioga, and it is supnosad
to have taken place two weeks ago az
least. Last week a complete out6t
of woman's wearing apparel was found
on the banks Of a creek located north
west of White Earth. The clotbinr
was spattered with blood and blood
was scattered along the trail leadinp
to the bank Of the creek. The find
created great excitement, and all day
farmers in the vicinity, together with
q number of citizens from White
Earth, secured the n%eighborhood in
an endeavor to find the body of the
missing woman. The creek was
dragged both above and below the SPOT
where the clothing was found. but no
trace Of a corpse could be discovered
Farmers living in the vicinity of the
spot where the clothing lay on the
bank state that they distinctly re.
member hearing the screams Of a wo.
man during the night two weeks ago.
During the same night a stranger
drove up to Alex Wills farm, nine
miles northeast of White Earth, with
a single rig and told Mr.. Wills that his
horse was exhausted and that he
wished to leave the animal there for
a few days. Wills allowed the horse
to be put in the stable and there it
has remained ever since. In the
morning, Wills went out to look at the
outfit. A light lap robe in the bottom
of the buggy was smeared with blood
and the rear portion of the buggy it.
self also had a quantity Of blood spat.
tered upon it. According to Wills, the
stranger gave the name of Andrew
Wolson and volunteered the informa-
ton that he was going to Buford, near
where he claimed to reside. The
theory of the farmers is that the muir.
der probably was committed zeal the
place where the clothing was found,
and that the dead body was removed
to a ore secluded spot.

Making Hard Fight to Prevent Spread

New Orleans, Aug. 2O.-President
Irrion Of the state board of health and
members of his staff arrived at New
Iberia, where a negro is reported to be
suffering with yellow fever. Sys-
tematic fumigation and screening is
to be pushed under the direction of
health officials. The fact that the
case is in an isolated square on the
outskirts of the town encourages the
belief that there will be no further

have been taken.

Ten Per Cent.


st. Paul, Aug. 2O.-The Great North
ern, Northern Pacific and 500 rail.
roads have announced a reduction of
10 per cent on the freight rate on
grain.
The reduction will take effect Sept.

and the territory it will cover is the
whole state, except that part within
fifty miles Of the terminals, which
means practically all the territory in

that they don't reduce the existing
rates on distances under fifty miles,
That, however, covers a very small
grain shipping area.
