RUNAWAY FolLs HoLD-up.

Hiehwaymen Hit Farmer and Blow
Friphtens Horses.
The fact that his team became
frightened and ran away saved J. M
Sweeney, who recently purchased the
Stablien farm near Aberdeen from a
hold-up.
Sweeney had been in the country on
business and was returning to Aber-
deem rather late Just as he got to
the railroad crossing at West Hill his
horses were abruptly stopped and q
gruff voice commanded Sweeney to
hold up his hands. Just at that mo-
ment something struck Sweeney over
the right eye and the horses at the
same time, becoming frightened, start.
ed to run away.
The blow he had received stunned
Sweeney and it was some time before
he could get the horses under control
When he did so he turned and drove
back, but could end no trace of his as
sailants. He continued on to Aber-
deem, where his wound was dressed
and the attempted hold-up reported to
the police. No trace of the bandits
has SO far been secured.

THE COnMONER'S
GREAT LECTURE

is improving and Is every day grow
ing better"
One of the most interesting parts
of his address was his narrative re-
garding his visits to the rulers of for
eign lands, he created much laughter
by telling of his interviews with the
Sultan of sulu and the Philippine
Datto, on his trip to those islands.
He pronounced King Edward as
the most approachable sovereign he
met. he had long talk with him. He
enjoyed his interview with King
Oscar of Sweden perhaps most of all.
He found the Czar of Russia more af-
fable than he expected. He spent near
ly an hour with him alone. and
thought this a proof of the untruth-
fulness of the charge that he, Mr..
Bryan. is an anarchist. as mo man
knows an anarchist better than the
Car and yet was alone with him for
nearly an hour" There was no fool
ish ceremony connected with his in
terviews with King Edward and the
Gar. He humorously dealt with his
audience with the Emperor of ia
pan. He told of witnessing the coro-
nation of the King of Norway and
caused laughter about his and Mrs
Bryan's attendance at the Norweg-
ian court, when he had to make elab-
crate bows to the king and queen.
Mr.. Bryan paid tribute to the peace
conference, which he attended as a
representative of America and at
which 26 nations We're represent
ed. He stated that the conference
had passed one important resolution
providing that cases of dispute which
cannot be submitted to arbitration
should be submitted to investigation
before an impartial tribunal. In this
connection he said that he had felt
proud that everywhere he went the
name of his president was being mem
toned as a peacemaker in the late
trouble between Japan and Russia.
81 am proud" said Mr. Bryan,
that my president had the oppor-
tunity and grasped 1t to rhus raise
the moral prestige of the United
States"
His contrasts of conditions in the
Old World with those in America
were clear and made evrybody pres
ent feel thankful that they were
Americans.
In closing Mr.. Bryan spoke of what
the United States is doing in serv-
ice to the whole world. ''The sun
never sets on American educational
influences" he declared
"If greatness is measured by serv-
ice" he said, then this is the worlds
greatest nation. None other is doing
or has done such service. What a
destiny is before us. To build up an
entire world. To draw all others to
us by the power and force of ex-l
ample"
Mr.. Bryan spoke for an hour and
forty minutes. He held the closest
attention of his audience and thel
lecture was pronounced by practical
ly every man and woman in the house
as one of the greatest they had everl
heard.
Mr. Bryan, after the lecture was
entertained at an informal lunch
con at Judge Van HoorebelIe's home
and left on No. 5 for Salt Lake City.

Another Fatality.

Fargo, Dec. 2S.-Two labor
ing men were killed and another
mar fatally injured in an explo-
sion that occurred at the Riley
camp number 2 on the new line
that is being built by the n. p.
to Muskoda. The camp is locat-
ed about one mile west OF Mus
koda and was the scene OF one OF
the most terrific explosions that
has occurred in this vicinity IN
years.
Shortly after Z o'clock Thurs
day morning the four men, who
were employed in the gang OF la
borers at the camp, built a fire
near where they were at work IN
order to get warm at intervals.
A can containing dynamite
was close to the fire but it was
believed by the men that the ex-
plosive was a safe distance from
the heat. About 1870 the men
went up to the fire to get warm
and were standing around the
fire talking when the dynamite
exploded.

Made Ringing Appeal.

Rev. Father Cleary of Mime
apolis, one of the most eloquent
and fearless champions Of tenn
perance in the Catholic church in
a recent address before 1000 H.
linoisans made this ringing ap-
peal:
"The cry OF fanaticism is one
OF the greatest obstacles we meet
on the part OF our Legislators.
How about the fanaticism OF the
saloon keeper? We commit our
selves to sane sobriety. We
must antagonize the saloon be-
causes it debauches the people in
the use OF liquor, in their politi.
cal relations and life and in the
dissipation of wages.
"We have this contest ever
with us because the saloons are
constant lawbreakers and are
supported by the beer and brew
cry trusts, the most dangerous
in our country. / am more
afraid OF the red light of the cor
ner than the red light Of an
archy"

Aid From Little Girl in N. D.

Made practically self-support-
ing through the aid of a child,
the little family in North Mime
apolis whose unfortunate circum-
stances were told in the Tribune
only a very. short time ago. is
now giving thanks to the child.
The little girl who helped them
so materially lives in North Da-
kota, and when she heard her
father read of the want and suf-
fering Of the little ones, she
went among her friends, and
soon had raised S.. 30, which she
sent to the Tribune.
It was found upon investiga-
ton that the family could rent
their front room for enough to
pay the entire rent, if they only
had a bedstead, and it was for
this that the money was used.
With this room rented and
what little work the mother can
do, the family expects to get
along without further charity. =

Holds School Without a Pupil.

Andrew jacobson, one of the
citizens OF Burlington School
Dist. No. 3 reports that the
school near his home has not
had pupil for over a month.
The teacher has a contract
with the school board, however,
and reports each morning and
after ringing the bell may remain
during the day or return to her
boarding place as she likes. The
snow has been so deep that it
has been almost impossible for
the few pupils in that vicinity to
attend the school,.
The Burlington school board,
however, did not anticipate this
kind OF weather when they en-.
gagged the teacher. The teacher
spends the day crocheting or in
other ways and does not worry
even if the chilling blasts sweep
over the prairie. She declares
that it's the easiest. money she
has ever made. No one can
blame her for tho conditions.
Who wouldn't take advantage
of euch an opportunity?

Wreck at Trenton.

The Oriental Limited, east
bound filled with passengers from
the coast, was ditched at Tren-
ton, a small station west Of Will
liston, Tuesday about noon. The
entire train consisting of eleven
coaches left the track, caused by
the spreading of the rails. All
remained upright except the
diner, and probably on this ac-
count there was no fatalities. AS
it was more than thirty were in
jured, three of whom are quite
seriously hurt, mostly internally.
The Williston wrecking car
went at once to the scene Of the
wreck and the mail car was plac-
ed back on the track at once and
the injured passengers taken to
Williston.
Mrs. Caroline Bendrock of Ida
no, suffered internal injuries that
may cause her death. She was
on her way to Kitterich, S. D.,
where she was to visit her son.
Altho the old lady was badly hurt
she was placed on another train,
at her request and sent on her
way to see her son. She said
that if she was going to die, she
wished to see her son once more.
It had been fifteen years since
mother and son met and for a
long time the old lady had been
working and saving that she
might go to visit her boy.
