NORTH DAKOTA NEWS,
Forcibiy Annexed,

ZIG y. Nl 1hNlNL
Mlnot-The forcible annexation OF
the town Of Noonan by its rival, Ker-
NIT, has been sustained by the courts,
or rather Judge Goss, who issued an
injunction f%orbidding the special cleo
ton whereby the forcible adoption was
carried, has refused to punish the
election officials for holding the cleo
ton despite his injunctional order.
+ The attorneys representing the cleo
ton officials argued that the incor-
poration Of Kermit was purely a legis-
lative matter and that the court had
no jurisdiction as touching the right
and qualification Of Kermit to incor-
porate. Judge Goss upheld this view
and dismissed the contempt proceed
ings.
The forcible annexationsof the town
site Of Noonan has caused much vex-
alton Of spirit to the citizens Of that
e%nterprising little burg, but to disin-
terested outsiders has furnished q
number Of good laughs at the clever
way it was carried out.
Kermit is a new town and Noonan
was a rival townsite which had sprung
up near Kermit. The federal govern
ment had decided that n postofiice
would be sufficient for both towns and
each had striven for the honor Of being
the town to have the postoffice. WORD
was received some time G that the
department had decided to establish
the Office at Noonan.

Minot-Alfred Thoreson, a promi-
nent business man of Epping, and we'll

stantly killed his sweetheart, Amy

weapon on himself and died almost in
stantly.
Miss Willard was seventeen years
old and an exceedingly pretty girl, the
belle Of Epping. Thoreson was WELL
to-do, handsome and thirty-two years
Did. He had been infatuated with Miss
Willard for some time and had paid
her devoted attentions. When he met
her there was a stormy scene. He
insisted that she marry him and she
positively declined.
Maddened with rage, Thoreson, who
had evidently intended to end her life
and his own, shot the girl dead and
sent a bullet through his brain.
Deputy Coroner Will Maloney held
an inquest and a verdict Of murder an6
suicide was rendered.
