A remarkable illustration of dogs

married lady there has a small pet and

owing to ill health, the animal be-
came greatly distressed, running hither
and thither in search Of his mistress, to
whom he was greatly attached A week
'afterward the dog disappeared and two
days later returned to its home footsore
and weary. 1t subsequently transpired
that the faithful terrier had found his
way to the hospital where his mistress
lay. No one guided him and he trav-
eled the whole way alone. He waited
about for hours trying to gain admis-
sion and finally. after many rebuffs,
succeeded in running into the hospital
and finding the bed where the lady lay.
With great delight he hailed her, and
after satisfying himself that she was
safe, he trotted back to Sutton. about

question of the clubs liquor license.

RIFLE IN TREE TRUNK.
Oak Has Grown Around the Gun, Al.
most Completely Embedding It.


About II miles from Centralia, on
the road to Little Rock, is curios-
ity, to see which would amply repay
any one for the drive, says the Seattle
Times. About fifty yards from the
road, near deserted homestead, is an
old-fashioned rifle imbedded in the
trunk of a tree. s.
The trunk Of the scrub oak is not
more than six inches through at the
point where the rifle is imbedded, so
that the stock and barrel are in COM
plete view. The rifle is in a perfect
state of preservation.
It is evident that the rife was
placed in a crotch of the tree many
years ago, probably at the height at
which q. man would rest a gun when
taking careful aim.
In the course Of years the tree has
grown completely around the rife, the
lock being imbedded. The crotch is
now about six inches above the barrel
and the gun is about ten feet from the
ground.
Romances innumerable might be
woven about the old rifle, but it
stands as a memento to the, develop.

place. What was wild and unex-

Herring Carry a Boat a Mile.
:, The latest fish story to come in is
that of James Maddox, a fisherman,
who was caught in the midst of a
large school of herring in Gunpowder
river, and claims that his boat was
fairly carried along on the backs of
the fish.
According to Maddox, despite his
efforts at the oars, he was carried
nearly mile out of his course before
he succeeded in extricating his boat
from the school. In one haul of big
6O0-fathom seine so many herring
were surrounded that it was impos-
sible to land the seine.

pears in the opera house on

Parlette comes with the

ments, and those who have
heard him say he is even better
than the advance heralding
promises. Parlette cannot be
as a humorist or as
a lecturer. He is both. He
has the reputation of being the
most successful man on the
platform in both entertaining g
and thrilling his audiences, and
he always leaves lot of truth

in February, June and Decem-

the parties may consent to a

To the Public.

The patronage we have re-

has been very pleasing to us
and we have endeavored to
please all. How we'll we have
succeeded remains for the pub
lie to decide, but we feel that
an explanation is due those who
attended the last carnival and
were fleeced out of their money.
Before we commenced the car
nival we made arrangements
with A. r. Caldwell to have
music furnished by the Rygg-
Caldwell orchestra. The night
before the carnival Caldwell
notified L. HI. Martin to have a
certain organ brought to the
rink and we complied with his
request. Ten minutes after
nine on the night of the carni-
val three members of the or
chestra headed by Caldwell
made their first appearance on
the ice and informed me per-
sonally that the organ was no
good. It was then too late to
get another organ and as a re-
suit there was no music. While
we feel that we were not to
blame yet we were more dis ap-
pointed than our friends who
attended. With this explana-
ton to our friends and thank
ing Caldwell for his share in
the farce, we remain,

LIQUOR THE CAUSE.
OF Death of Cigar Salesman near
LansfOrd last Friday.

States Attorney Bowen was
called to Lansford last Satur-
day to investigate the matter of
the sudden death of Geo. B.
Silver, travelling salesman for
the Ashland (Wisconsin) Cigar
Company.
Silver in company with the
Grano liveryman and a young
lady who was to take the train
to Minot, started on the drive
across the country about the
middle of the afternoon. He
had been drinking heavily dur
ing the day and when the drive
was but partly completed Silver
became deathly sick, over
balanced and fell from the seat.
The driver endeavored to put
him back in the sleigh but was
unable to do so. He was drag
ged in the shelter of a small
hut near the road while the
party speedily went to Minot
for aid, but when they returned
Silver was dead.
At the coroner's inquest held
on Saturday evening at Lans-
ford the following verdict was
returned:
That Geo. B. Silver came
to his death in Bottineau coun-
ty, Norrh Dakota, March 9th
1907, and that his death was
caused by paralysis of the
heart, due to the excessive use
of alcoholic liquors, administer
