Prof. Osgood, formerly principal Of
the Linton schools, and afterward a
teacher on the Standing Rock reserva.
tt0n, was In Linton this week. Not
long ago Mrs. Osgood was taken to
Mlnot, where her parents live, to be
operated on for appendicitis. Mr.. Os-
good went with her, but was compelled
to return temporarily to the reserva-
tion after the operation was per-
formed. He has received word that
his wife is continuing to improve. Mr..
and Mrs. Osgood will take up their
residence in Ward county, near Mi
not, where the professor will teach
school.
A party Of travellers for pleasure
reached Linton Monday evening ina
big five-tho.sand-dollar locomobile.
They were from the Twin Cities, and
expected to 90 as far north as Minot,
then to the eastern part of the state
on their way home. They were having
an enjoyable outing, but were bothered
to considerable extent by the low
clearance Of their devil wagon. They
could not run in the wagon tracks,
but had to travel with one wheel In
the center Of the road and the other
alongside Of 1t. They had struck
several big stones, compelling them
to stop for repairs, one stop Of two
days, at Aberdeen, being necessary
from the cause named.
Sylvester Flanagan, the young man
who has pitched for the Linton ball
club this summer, left Monday morn
ing from Bismarck by the N. r., en-
route to his home at New London,
Wis. "Sib' has made friends OF every
one out here who became acquainted
with him. Quiet and unassuming at
all times and with the bestof personal
habits, hc is a young man who secures
the respect Of every one. And that
he made good as a pitcher is shown by
the fact that the Linton club won
about three times as many games as
1t lost. The Record hopes that con-
ditions will be such that the young
man will be a resident Of Linton and
a member of the club next season.
For some unaccountable reason one
Of the town wells-the one on upper
Broadway, went suddenly "bad" few
days ago. Many people think that 1t
is probably caused by some animal or
other getting drowned In the we'll and
its body decaying. But that can
hardly be, as the we'll is walled up'
with tiling and carefully inclosed at
the top. There is something "myste.
rious' about such happenings as here
related. The writer knows of two or
three instances in the county where
the water in certain we'll has sud-
denly changed to better or worse. The
we'll at the Record Office from the time
it was dug until recently contained
water that tasted like sulphur water"
or-rotten eggs. 1t was dug three
years ago. But it seems TO be all right
this summer. Perhaps the changed
taste" of the water that has occurred
occasionally in wells in these parts is
caused by the temporary opening or
closing Of a small vein of water that
is impregnated with sulphur.

The Experience of One Private In

The following is the experience of
German army private:
During the second maneuvers l was
sent on ahead to select quarters for my
company. The police supply the names
of householders who are expected to
shelter the soldiery, and l had to de-
eide on the number of men who should
be assigned to each place.
1t seems that our major dispatched q
courier with a message for our captain.
For some reason or other the message
was not delivered. The next day the
captain called me out and in the pres
ence of the whole company rebuked me
for not delivering the message.

"Why didn't you deliver that message,

not received any message. The cap
tain's temper broke all bounds. With
an oath he rode his horse at me full
tilt, hurting filthy names at me the
while
When he had ridden right up to me
fully expected he would run me over,
but | dared not move-he suddenly
reined in his horse and, drawing long
dagger from his belt, shouted, livid
with passion, st have half mind to
stick this through your vile body, you

Once more he asked me about the
message, and once more answered
him.
''Then five days confinement and
bread and water be your punishment,
you liar!' he retorted
He repeated the question several
times and increased my term of impris
onment each time l answered in the
negative until my term of imprison-
ment equaled fourteen days. I was
placed under arrest. Next day was
released.

had discovered his mistake, but he
never referred to it.-World Today.

Noise of a Blowing Well Drowned

In the Broadway Magazine is story
by Rupert Hughes concerning the oil
wells of Texas. He tells of the birth of

'sIt screamed like the death cry Of

the passengers were equally made

in with bell that rocked without
sound and a whistle emitting puffs Of
white steam that no one heard.
'"The animals of the region were
greatly disturbed. There was much
breaking of harness on the part of
horses. and one or two galloped about
under empty saddles. Their riders
were doubtless stuck in the mud some
