prolonged church trial here the Rev. B.
F. Lawhern, a Methodist minister, has
been suspended, as have Mr.. and Mrs.
Joe" Sapp.
The trouble arose last March, when
Sapp accused the Rev. Mr.. Lawhern of
becoming too affectionate toward Mrs.
Sapp, asserting that he saw them en-
brace and kiss number of times. Sapp
swore that he secretly bored some
auger holes in the side of the building
in which he is keeping hardware
store, and that when Lawhern came in
one afternoon to talk to Sapp and his
wife he left on a pretense that he had
some business up street to attend to,
leaving them alone in the store. In
stead Of going up street Sapp went to
his peepholes, when he declares he saw
Lawhern and his wife in a fond
embrace. Sapp called out: ''Thats
enough!" and he says Lawhern ran.

The copper company wants the big

The quartz carries a very high per-

from $3.50 to $16 ton. The Quartz
Hill<mine is a mountain of ore and Is
worked on the quarry plan. Many tons

STREET CAR SYSTEM
FOR MIN0T.
Some Talk of Local Capital Put.
ting in an Up-To.Date Sys.
tenn Pays Elsewhere in
the State and why not in Mi.
not.

"Crokat avenue. Change cars
for Greenleaf's twenty-third adj
dition to the city of Minot. "
This is a cry that will be familiar
enough in Minot if the plans of a
prominent young attorney Of
means mature. Minot is to have
street cars, real cars with wheels
trolley and all. All that is in
the way of the system at the
present time is a franchise from
the city of Minot permitting the
cars to un-and a little money.
But the money will be forth COM
ing as soon as the franchise is
granted. An Independent re-
porter was taken into confidence
the other day and the plans d.
vulged. AS he did not promise
to keep them a secret he could
hardly be expected to do so.
"You see according to the last
census, the lawyer explained, "
Minot has a population of 1888
people and is growing fast. The
city is scattered all over Halifax
and the people would patronize
one Of the systems literally.
You know there are no tight
listed people in Minot. Why
there is not a lawyer in the city
who would not gladly wait twen-
ty minutes COR a car to take him
to the court house. You see we
are going to run the line down
Main street, up the South hill,
and down Fifth and Valley
streets. We will Of course have
to take in the North end Of the
city. The street car systems in
Fargo, Grand Forks and Valley
City are paying propositions and
nothing will prove to be a failure
in Minot. Did you ever hear Of
a street car company losing
money. Not on your tin type,
and we will make a win of it.
We will run the thing with local
capital.
The Independent believes that
a street car system in Minot will
pay. All it needs is a little en-
enlargement.
