OF Duffy, the supposed leader of the
gang, Bert Conroy. one Of the partid-
pats in the sensational Sawyer county
bank robbery. has changed his plea OF
not guilty to one of guilty.
When arraigned three days ago Con-
roy pleaded not guilty to eight indict-

ty to six of these, the others being
nolled.
Two small steel saws were dfscov-
cred by the jailer in Conroy's cell, and
it was found that three bars HAD been
sawed through. both in the cell and in
tho corridor. This is the second time
that bars Of the cell have been found
to be cut just in time to prevent the
escape of some of the prisoners.
Judge G0ss has ordered that fo4r adj
ditional guards be PLAYED in the Jail to
watch over these desperate men and
see that no further attempt at escape
is made.

Judge corliss 10 Hurled Into Snow
and Escapes Injury.
Guy c. H. Corliss, formerly an as.
sociate justice of the supreme court,
and one of the best known attorneys
in the state, had, it has been learned,
a narrow escape from death last week
while walking from stalled passen-
ger train to the station about a mile
away. Judge CorNsss, on account OF
the cold weather, had his fur collar
turned up about his ears and conse-
quently did not hear the approach Of
the big snow plow which showed itself
under the drifts upon which he was
walking. 1t tossed him high in the
air and several rods away from the
track. Fortunately the snow was deep
and acted as cushion and beyond a
few bruises and strained muscles;
Judge Corliss was not hurt.

Drunken Brute Administers Horrible
Beating to Young Minot Wife.
Mrs. ]. v. ITCHY, wife of the pro-
prietor Of the Palace restaurant at Mi

tack, which may result fatally. Lloyd
Pritt, a Great Northern fireman, was
arrested soon after, and is charged
with assault.
Pritt, it is alleged, came into the
restaurant and began to use abusive
language toward Mrs. ITCHY. She re-
scented it, and started to walk into a
back room, when he followed. Her
husband saw that the man was drunk
anG ran to get the police, believing
that he was harmless. While gone the
man attempted to assault his wife, and
began by beating her about the head,
loosening her teeth. blackening one of
her eyes and bruising her right ear.
He gave her cut on the chin that
staggered her. Not content with this
brutal onslaught of blows, the man
threw her to the floor and attempted
to accomplish his fendish purpose,
for which he had entered the restau-
rant.
With her husband out after the po-
lice, she made a brave struggle against
the terrible assault Of the rufian, who
was big man and who, under the in
tluence OF liquor. was especially ugly.
Finding himself baked in his purpose,
ne sprang up and began to junu

sues Statement.

6eifieId IN. D. Commercial Club Is.
sues Statement.
The following statement has been
issued by the Commercial Club of Bel
field:
1.-THE Commercial Club of Belfeld, N.
D., feels justified in resenting few
of the numerous reports regarding
North Dakota, some of which would
intimate that our section Is in want
of food and fuel. Being located in
Stark county and knowing conditions
in this and adjoining counties on the
east, west and south, we wish to sub.
nit the following facts:
"Our fuel supply is not dependent
uron the hauling facilities of the rail-
road companies, owing to large depos-
its of native Ignite coal, and there is
absolutely no foundation for a food
famine report. The local freight trains
are almost of daily occurrence. The
running time of trains on this division
is not materially affected by the snow,
as it is not deep enough to keep stock
from grazing on the ranges, and very
little feeding is being done.
eve desire to extend our apprecia-
Lion to the local Northern Pacific rail-
road officials for the manner in which
train service is being handled over
this division, and congratulate our
selves on conditions as they exist
here. and we desire to impress on the
reading public that if hardships are
being encountered in other sections of
the state such condition does not ap-
ply to this territory up to the present
time"

Minot under cloud and has not been
heard of since, and his wife declares
that Mrs. ferret is responsible for
breaking up their happiness. The
women had discussion on the
matter, and Mrs. Shelving, it is
charged, grabbed a butcher knife and
made for Mrs. ferret. Mrs. ferret
threw her hand out to ward off the
blow and cut her hand. At the sight
of blood, Mrs. Shelving ran. The grand
jury took up the matter with the re-
suit that Mrs. Shelving will have to
answer a charge of assault.
