A dividend of 25 per cent was declared
at a meeting held Monday in Grand
Forks in the wind-up of the affairs of
John r. Wang, formerly in business at
Nekoma, N. D., who went into voluntary
bankruptcy some few weeks ago. The
dividend amounted to over S5O00 The
liabilities of Mr.. Wang amounted to
between $4,000 and $4,000.
On Tuesday Dec. 10th the ladies OF
the Catholic church at Nekoma will hold
bazaar and sale of plain and fancy
needle work. The holding of the bazaar
has been considerably delayed owing to
the non arrival of the stained glass win
dows and interior fixtures for the new
church building erected during the past
summer. With the proceeds of the
event of Dec. 10th it is hoped to wipe
out the existing debt on the church
edifice.

At Edmore Mrs. Charles Erickson is
dead and her husband thought to be
dying as result of asphyxiation from
gas of coal stove. Neighbors, who saw
no signs of life around the house, broke
into it at about half past one o'clock last
Friday afternoon and found the couple
had been overcome in their bedroom
while they slept. Mrs. Erickson was
dead, and Erickson was barely alive.
Physicians we're summoned, and worked
over Erickson constantly for several
hours. At ten o'clock on Friday night
he was still alive, but it was considered
improbable that he would recover. Mr..
and Mrs. Erickson had been residents Of
Edmore for the past four years, coming
here from Park River. Erickson has
been engaged in the blacksmith busi-
ness. Mrs. Erickson was about 50years

Monument to Young Estes.

Richmond, Va, July 1S.-DeSpite
the time that has passed since the ac-
quittal of Judge Loving, the trial still
continues to be the principal topic of
conversation and intense feeling has
been engendered in many sections of
the state, threatening to result in
family feud. Thousands of people be-
lieve tnat young Theodore Estes was
Innocent of the assault charged by
Miss Loving, and a movement has
been set on foot by the women of Mel
son county to erect an elaborate and
expensive monument to the murdered
youths memory. A considerable sum
of money to has already been raised
and funds will be collected throughout
the state, insuring a costly memorial
for the victim of Judge Lovings
wrath.
1t is reported that a well known Vir
gilia writer, VINO was in attendance
at the trial, will use the famous TRACE
dy as the basis of a move, intended
to rehabilitate the character of young
Estes. Other efforts to wipe out the
blots of infamy that now besmirch the
memory of Theodore Estes are being
made. Friends of the dead boy have
secured affidavits from people who
saw Estes and Miss Loving during the
ride wnen the latter says the drugged
liquor was given her aid the assault
committed One young man testified
that he followed the buggy in which
the couple were riding and was in
sight of them practically all of the
time Several similar affidavits have
been secured

AS to the employment of detectives,
Darrow declared that most or practi-
cally all the testimony in the case
was secured by Pinkertons and that
it would be impossible to dissociate
them and their methods from the is
sue. He said the defendant was com

sorts and conditions of allegations.

Discussing progress and the intro

bie,s view is that the municipal plants
are as modern, as efficient, and as
fully up-to-date as the company un-
dertakings 1t has also been sapw1, he
declares, that the municipal plants
yield good results. viewed from the
standpoint of operating efficiency. He
also gives 1t as his opinion that the
encouragement given to the produc-
tion of new inventions and the discoy-
cry of new processes by probable de
mand for them, is certainly as great
under municipal operation as under
private management. for If municipal
tiles are as free and eager to adopt i'm
proved methods and inventions as we
have seen them to be. there will be as
great demand as where private com
panies are In complete control of pub

Need a Good Bank,

A good bank is valuable asset for
the small town. During these days
of prosperity people Of almost every
community have surplus amount of
money to deposit in the bank, or to
invest in way that will bring a
fair margin of interest. Lately sys-
TEN has grown up of doing banking
business by mail. Alleged savings
banks and investment companies in
large cities advertise widely offering
six to seven per cent. interest on de-
posits. Many who have little knowl-
edge of financial affairs make depos-
its in these banks. The Lincoln bank
at Oak Park, ILL.,. was one of these in
stitutious that made great offers to
the people Of agricultural districts in
order to secure deposits. More than
$1,0OO,0O0 were deposited by farmers
and others in this concern. Within q
year 1t was declared unsound by the
United States authorities, the pro-
moter Of 1t placed under arrest and
charged with fraud. The poor de-
luded depositors are not likely to re-
ceive five per cent. Of their deposits.
