MAJOR MURPHYS DISPOSITION
A Story Illustrative Of His Tender
Feelings Toward Brother Man
Has Just Leaked Out,

The story of how Major Murphy Of
Minot, while on trial at Fargo on a
forgery charge, assisted a man almost
entirely unknown to him, has just
leaked out. Jake Ludwick of Buffalo
was a juror in the first trial Major
Murphy had About the time the case
was concluded, he became i'll with
typhoid fever. and later his wife be-
came sick. In a short time his en-
tire savings were gone. During his
second trial, Murphy heard of Lud-
wick's condition, and at once mailei
him good sized check to give him
new start in life. Considering the
fact that Major Murphy was then un-
der an enormous expense in fighting
the case, his charitable action is .doub-
ly worthy.

Formerly the meeting of the associa-

''S00' TRAIN WOULD
CREATE A BIG
PANIC
So Long Since Natives Saw
One, That They Might Be-
come Afraid Of It.

Henry Then Of Bisbee, N. D., has
troubles of his own. In letter to
friend he tells of the conditions. both
regarding the car shortage and the
fuel shortage, in that vicinity. He
states that the 500 road has hal but
one train through the Thief River
Kenmare line for a month and that
some of the people have almost for
gotten what 500 train looks like.
The Great Northern gets train or two
up the branch every week but for
all Of that business is practically at
a s1c.nd still al every line Of trade
is paralyzed.
The snow is several feet deep on the
level and the people Of Bisbee are
"busy bees" with shovels and wood
sleds.
Further the writet states that on the
26th of December he sent letter to
town eleven miles distant. It reach
ed its destination January 9, only
fourteen days late. Coal is short, and
arrives at CORRESPONDENCE short in
tervals and that in correspondingly
small quantities though the coal deal
ers have enough orders for thousand
cars or more.
On the car shortage Mr.. Then sheds
more light. He says that elevator
companies in that vicinity have thou
sands Of bushels of grain in store with
no promises of relieving the over
taxed elevators. Farmers are run
ming short of cash with ready money
on the market, a scarcity on account
Of the thousands of dollars that are
tied up in grain. Farmers who are
rated at $4,000 are unable to pay
debts of 500.
Altogether the situation is very
discouraging one from the standpoint
of the farmer and business man.

Senior Class.

The senior class of the high school
held a business meeting yesterday af-
ternoon and disposed of several i'm
portant questions, last but not least
of which was the selection of a
patron saint to rule over the destinies
of the graduates to be for the next
five or six months. After due and
careful consideration Professor Steb-
bins was unanimously chosen to don
the official cloak.
The class also looked into the mat
ter of securing graduating pins. Presi-
dent James Matthle was authorized
to appoint committee to secure sam
pies and prices and report at the next
meeting. There was some discussion
concerning the advisability of chang
ing of the class colors, old rose and
green, to orange and black. The

For some time after assuming his
position, the inspector will be busy
man for there are twelve or thirteen
: diaries in the city that will require in
spection and each dairy will require
at least two days time. The mode Of
testing COWS is as follows: The tenn
perature Of a COW is taken and re-
corded just previous to an injection.
The following day the temperature Is
taken again and the COW shows SYM
toms of tubercular infection by rise
in temperature. A healthy COW will
show no visible effect from the injec-
ton. This procedure must be taken
with each of thirty or forty cows at
each dairy and the task will be a tedi-
GUS one at best.
DR.. E. ]. Davidson has been men,

inspectorship and that his appoint

all goes without saying. DR.. David

HIDE BUSINESS IS POOR
The Condition Of Railroad Traffic is
Responsible for the Inactivity
in the Market.

Although the winter months of the
year are generally busy times for the
fur and hide dealers, the present sea-
son promises to result disastrously
for many dealers throughout the west.
The inability of the roads either to
bring furs and hides to the market
or to ship to the dealers after being put
through the process of cleaning and
tanning, has resulted in a complete
tie-up Of the fur business, a tie-up:
which will undoubtedly mean a raise

DECREASED DEATH
RATE DURING
LAST YEAR
But at Same Time Number Of
Births Reported is Smaller
Than Previous Year.
NO EPIDEMIC OF DISEASE
And in Every Way 1905 Was
q Good One in Health
Circles.

The birth and death statistics for
the year ending Dec. 81, 1906, were
issued this morning by City Health
Officer Woutat. The figures show a
decided decrease in every particular
births, deaths and number of contagi-
GUS diseases reported. The decrease
in the number of deaths is especially
conspicuous and speaks we'll for the
board of health and other causes tend
ing to promote the general health of
the city. The deaths for the year were
sixty-two showing the percentage of
deaths much lower than in most cities
with corresponding population.
The number of contagious diseases
decreased from ffty-five in 1905 to
forty-six the last year. When asked
the reason for this decrease despite
the increase in population, the city
health officer stated that the entire
absence of epidemics Of any sort was
noticeable the past year. In 1905
there were no severe epidemics in the
city but at one time during the winter
months he had several houses In
quarantine at the same time.
The figures for the past year and
for 1905 are as follows:
Contagious
Deaths. Births. Diseases
1906. =. .. ...S1 213. IS
1906. :. ...62 17S 46
The health officer has considerable
trouble in securing a correct report
as physicians are somewhat backward
and tardy about reporting the number
of births and deaths, especially the
latter. There Is a state law which
provides that all undertakers doing
business in the state must, before the
burial of any body, secure a written
permit from the attending physician.
If this law was strictly enforced the
work of collecting the vital statistics
would be comparatively easy. How
ever, the law is seldom enforced and
the completeness Of the health report
for the year suffers as consequence.
The detailed report for the month of
December, 1906, shows the following.
Seven deaths, ten births and two
cases of contagious diseases.

Highland Mines.

J. 81. Lewis, in Galena Tribune: At
the south end of the Clarey eighty,
which was reported sold by me, to the
Mineral Point Zinc company for $40,
900, is one of the richest piles of car
Donate zinc ever piled up in this dis
trict, several thousand tons of milling
dirt. This is the work of small
crew of men, about five all told, and
one blind $50 horse. AS high as l65
tubs of rich mill dirt are being raised
here in a day. The whole eighty is
ribbed and scanned with carbonate ore
deposits and there arc scores of little
old fashioned testpits on the ground.
At the north end of the tract the min
ers scale the sod and work the ground
by open cut.
In six months of 1906 from July to
Nov. 30, the Highland Mining COM
pany shipped 100000 pounds of zinc
ore from its own property along the
immediate right of way. The mine is
owned by the Kennedy boys and the
Mineral Point Zinc company, and is
still active in operation and is a very
strong producer. On account of former
agreements the Highland mill is work
ing upon the other ores, but it will be
some time before it can get to milling
on its own product.
