open or close the circuit at any de-
sired time. An alarm clock Is firmly
fastened to a wooden bracket and

TWO WEDDINGS SOON TO TAKE
PLACE AMONG THE ROYALTY

Associated Press to The Evening Times.
London, March 1.-THE marriage of
Prince August Wilhelm. third son of
the kaiser, to Princess Alexandra VIC
toria, is not the only wedding to take
place in European royal families this
year, according to London court gos-
sip. Although no official announcement
has been made, it is generally believed
that Prince Luiz Philippe, duke of
Braganza and crown prince of Portu-
gal, will within few months take az
his bride the Princess Augusta VIC
toria, eldset daughter of Prince Will
lam of Hohenzollern. The visit of
King Frederick Augustus of .Saxony
to King Carlos of Portugal is said to
have been for the purpose Of arrang-
ing the royal match. An official an
nouncement of the engagement is ex-
pected within few weeks. The pros.
pective groom will be 20 years of age
day after tomorrow, March 81, while
the Princess Augusta is only sweet
sixteen"
It is announced that the marriage
of Prince August Wilhelm, king Of
Prussia, to Princess Alexandra VIC
toria of Schleswig-Holstein- Sender

WOLF KILLING IS.
A PROFITABLE
BUSINESS
Polk County Gets q Good Sized
Sum For Those Who Get
the Animals.

The state auditor has sent warrants
to people in fifty-two counties, cover
ing nearly $4,000 in bounties for
wolves killed in the last three months.
Polk county comes we'll up in the lead
with $725.50 for 1879 wolves killed dur
ing the three months.
Roseau seems to be the banner
county for wolf production. In the
last ninety days, 361 wolves were kill
ed in that county, on which bounties
were claimed, making bounty pay
ment for residents of that one county
from the state of $2,7O7.5O.
For the scalp of full-grown wolf,
the state pays $3.50; for whelps, 81
each. In addition, various counties
pay special county bounty. In st.
Louis the county allowance doubles the
state bounty. Thus, hunting wolves
where they are plentiful, is not un-
profitable. In spite of the tempting
bounty, 1t seems impossible to exter-
inmate the wolves where there are
large timber tracts, streams of water
and few settlers.
The state warrants sent out yester-
day to those drawing bounties on 1888
full-grown wolves and 299 whelps, are
distributed among the northern coun-
ties as follows:
Clearwater So, $435; Itasca 80, $685.;
Kfttson 1856, $1,141; Norman SO, $153;
Polk 1879, $725.50; Roseau 361, ST.
70I.50.

HELD LIABLE.
Minnesotans Can't Turn Travellers
Away from Door In Winter.

Away from Door In Winter.
The supreme court of Minnesota has
decided that one who refuses to allow
another to remain at his home on a
cold winters night, when this refusal
results in physical damage, the party
who refused to befriend the other Is
liable for monetary damages. The
case decided was an action brought
by Orlando Depue against John Flat
eau, farmer at Riverdale, in Waton-
wan county.
Justice Brown of the supreme court
reverses a decision of the district
court, which decided that Plateau was
not liable for damages. Depue was a
cattle buyer an on Jan. 3, 1906, drove.
seven miles into tho country to in
spect some cattle which Plateau had
for sale.
1t was an exceptionally cold night,
but Plateau, 1t is alleged, denied De-
pue permission to remain. Instead
they carried him out and placed him
in his vehicle, threw the lines over
his head and started his horses to-
ward Madelia, where Depue lived. De-
pue was found the next morning about
three-quarters of a mile from the Flat
eau farm almost frozen to deaht.

At the Implement Dealers conven-
ton in Minot, the following resolutions
were passed:
The committee on resolutions rec
commend the passage of the following
resolutions:
Resolved, that We heartily commend
the bold and able manner in which
President Roosevelt is fighting for the
Square deal" for every man and that
We Loyalty and unanimously stand
with him, shoulder to shoulder, in the
grand fight he is now making to pro-
mote such legislation as shall place
every business interest in this country
upon an equal basis of equal rights,
and make it impossible for rich and
powerful corporations to obtain in any
way special privileges; and further,
Be it resolved, that We recognize
and appreciate the potent influence
welded for good by President Roose-
welt by virtue of the strong and clean
Wife he presents to our people and the
strong stand he makes on every ques-
ton of moral issue affecting the well
fare of all our people. His whole life
stands for the Square deal" for every
man, rich or poor, weak or strong.
Resolved, that we are earnestly OPP
posed to the PARCELS post bill by con-
gress, and call upon our representa-
tves in that body to vote against and
use every effort to defeat it, and that
our secretary be requested to forward
a copy of this to our senator's and
representatives.
Whereas, the present cost of iron,
steel and lumber is forcing up the
prices of farm machinery and is rap
idly becoming a serious burden upon
the farmer, and we believe this condi-
ton is being caused for sitting Of
competition in such raw material,
therefore,
Be it resolved, that We call upon
congress of the United States to re-
move the tariff on these commodities
In the raw state, and that the Sec
rotary be instructed to forward copy
of this resolution to each senator and
representative from North Kakota and
Minnesota.
Resolved, that we respectfully and
earnestly request tho binder and
thresher manufacturers to make dis
count on commission of IS per cent.
Resolved, that we endorse the good
roads movement and that we give this
movement our cordial support.
Resolved, that the transportation
committee be instructed to confer with
the different express companies doing
business in northern Minnesota and
North Dakota and make an effort to
get special classification on machine
repairs with more reasonable charge.
Resolved, that we enter our protest
against the practice of wholesalers of
advertising net prices on postal cards
or in trade papers, and ask that the
practice be discontinued.
Resolved, that we refuse to patron
lie any jobbers or wholesalers who
are in the habit of making sales direct
to consumers.
Resolved. that we urge the members
Of this association to use the asso-

citation emblem on their business sta
tionery.
Resolved, that insofar as possible
local organizations be formed and
maintained for the purpose of main
tanning prices and promoting better
feeling among competitors.
Resolved, that the results and the
benefits shown during the past three
years should stimulate the members
of the association to heartily and loyal
~ support our Implement Dealers
Fire Insurance Company, which is
making to us a saving of 40 per cent
in premiums.
Resolved, that in the National Fed
Grafton We have the very core of the
State Association and We rejoice in its
growth and appreciate the effective
work it is doing, and We pledge our
moral support.
Resolved, that our delegate to the
National Federation again bring be-
fore that organization the matter of
excessive charges on machine repairs
by the express companies and urge
that action be taken toward getting a
lower rate on machine repairs shipped
by express.
Resolved, that we heartily thank
the citizens and local members of this
association of Minot for the cordial
hospitality and splendid entertainment
Of this association during the conven-
ton.
Resolved, that We thank the imple-
ment trade papers for sending repre-
sentative here and for making a COM
plete report of the proceedings of this
association.
Resolved, that We thank the local
papers of this city for the interest
they have taken in the work of the
association and for so fully reporting
the proceedings.
Whereas, we believe the democrat
lied condition of the thresher trade
which results in increased expense to
manufacturer and loss of profits to
local dealer in largely due to the prac-
tce of manufacturers putting a large
force of statesmen into territory where
they are not represented by local
dealers and selling their goods at
practically cost prices, therefore
Be it resolved, that we again call
upon the manufacturers of threshing
machinery to discontinue selling their
goods direct to users, urging upon
their attention that to continue the
present practice must result in con-
stantly increasing selling expense and
inevitable disaster to the implement
business, both wholesale and retail.
Resolved, that it is the opinion Of
this association that the furnishing of
canvassers by any manufacturer or
jobber to help local dealers on sales
Is dangerous practice, and we ask
all members to refuse absolutely sIcn
canvassers. and If sent, to refuse to
take them into the country.
Respectfully submitted,
