SECRETARY BROWN RESIGNS
His Position With the Red River Val.
ley Immigration and Develop.
ment Association.

Secretary T. r. Brown of the Red
River Valley immigration and De-
velopment association has resigned the
position. This was announced at
Crookston on Monday. and the resig-
nation has been sent to the board of
directors of the organization.
Mr.. Brown is secretary of the
Crookston Commercial club, and for
that reason resigned. He will devote
his entire time to the Crookston club.
In regard to the Red River Valley as
ISOLATION.
II am firmly of the opinion" said
Mr.. Brown today, "that such an or
ganization would work wonders for
the valley if it followed out the lines
of endeavor outlined and am convin-
ced that if permanent prosperity is to
come to this section, it will only be
through the united effort of every city
in the valley. Already the associa-
ton has been able to do things and
if it's work is continued I have no
doubt but that the results will be evil
dent the coming year. The secretary
of such an association, however,
should be able to give his entire time
and thought to it and the cities al
ready interested in the movement
should get together and select. such
a man.

Page Record: There was consider
able excitement Sunday evening when
one of our young men was found I'M
conscious in his room in the Thomp-
son block, and an investigation showed
that he was suffering from the effects
of poison. DR.. Seaman was called and
finally succeeded in reviving him al
though for some time it was thought
that recovery was impossible. The
young man claims that he used the
chlorofOrmN for toothache but as his
personal effects We're packed up and
he had tried to get a team at the liv-
cry stable with which to make his es-
cape, 1t is altogether likely that it was
a case of attempted suicide. The
young man belongs to one of our best
families and occupied a good position,
but gambling seems to have caused his
downfall, as he ia said to have been
a heavy loser of late over the green
table and his creditors were pressing
him for settlement.

cine and Religion.

Last evening before the Fortnight
ly club DR.. Crane read a paper on
Medical Practice in Ancient Wales"
and his treatment of the subject show
ed thorough knowledge of the sub
ject.
According to DR.. Crane medicine
and religion were SO intimately as
ISOLATED during the early history of
Wales that it is very difficult to men
ton the conditions existing in one
without mentioning the other. This
is accounted for from the fact that
the priests We're also the physicians,

That immigration to North Dakota

THE ICE IS DANGEROUS
Chief Lowe Believes That Every One
Should Make it a Point to Keep
on River Covering.

Chief OF Police ]. w. Lowe: The
warm weather Of the last few weeks
has put the Red river ice in very
dangerous condition. Along the banks
of the river, the ice has been melted
considerably, and it is very dangerous.
Some people seem to think that the
cold weather of the last two or three
days would have the effect of freez-
ing this SO as to make it safe, but this
is a mistake. My advice is that peo-
pie keep off the ice the rest of the
year.
