HANSON WAS GENEROUS"

Last Sunday morning about e clock
newspaper carrier found a watch in
gutter near the home of County At.
torDey Willard Hanson. He picked up
the watch and found it 10 be the prop.
erty of the attorney. He rang the bell
at the Hanson home, while visions Of
s. gold piece danced before his eyes.
The County Attorney had doubtlesslv
had an uneasy night of it, for when he
appeared AT the door he was i'll very
unpleasant frame of mind.
Good morning the carrier cheerily
greeted the prosecutor.
- Good morning, y came a gruff voice.
''What right have you to wake me up
go early Sunday morningN asked the
attorney.
This inquiry lowered the spirit of the
newsboy. and in not overcon6dent way
the boy explained; "1 called TO see,
sir. if YOU had lost watch -
"A watch" growled the attorney
"ET We lost no watch, lie declared. at
the same time moving to close the, door;

Hanson retired for few moments,
and when he returned TO the door his
manner had changed so materially that
the carrier again could sec the color

DANGER POINTED OUT

Through some oversight on the part of
the workmen repairing the street car
line on the corner Of Fifth West and
First North several horses received very
severe electric shocks from the rails.
In one instance w. s. Ferris, manager
Of the Union Manufacturing & Pack
ing company Of S4S South Third East
street, was driving east on First North
when his horse stepped on the charged
rail and was, thrown violently TO ihe
ground, breaking the shafts of the cart
and delaying Ferris for several hours
The charged rails gave the mothers in
the vicinity much anxiety, for fear
their children might step on the rails
and he injured. Such things should be

Good Spenders.

Talk about sending money
away to the mail orler houses.
Sears & Roebuck have been beat
en- all hollow this summer in Mi
not by the circuses, the Carnival
companies and the like. The
people Of Minot and vicinity like
amusements and do not hesitate
to spend a dollar now and then.
OF course a circus always takes
a great deal more money out OF
the country than it leaves. But
what's the use of living if you
can't have a little fun and give
the youngsters a good time? Its
a mighty fine thing to gather
enough Of this wo.ld's goods to
insure comfort and luxury for
yourself and loved ones, but
what's the use of boarding up
countless dollars that you will
never spend and YOUR relatives
will fighu over? Yes: the people
of Minot and vicinity are good
spenders, and really that's what
makes a good city anyway.

..Sure Thing" Games.

Chief of Police Hagen inter-
cepted q little game for a hop
head Sunday who evidently came
to Minot to bleed the unsophist:
icated during the races. The fol-
low had some gambling devices
which we're sure winners for him.
For instance he had dice with
the spots located upon them en-
tirely wrong. On one side OF a
cube, would appear a five spot,
while on the other side would ap-
pear another five spot. Any
gambler knows that a two spot
should always be opposite the
five. Another dice with a pin
for spinning like top, was used.
The pin could be slipped thru
the cube, thus spinning it from
either end. The cube was fled
in such a way that spinning from
one end, a man couldn't lose,
while spinning from the other
end, he couldn't win in five thous.
and years. The gambler was or.
dered out of the city.

This is the story that is told
on a Minot undertaken. We will
not vouch for it's truth. Atare-
cert performance at the opera
house, the undertaken was ac-
companied by his little girl. The
william killed his victim on the
stage in a very realistic manner
and the little girl took it all in.
After the performance the little
girl looked up at her father and
in a stage whisper said" Say,

THE LAUNCH LOCATED.
The Little Craft In Which Eleven Men

Newport News, Va, June 15.-Witn
canopy frame crushed, but canvass
still tightly fastened down, the missing
launch Of the battleship Minnesota
was located in 81 feet Of water about
1000 yards west by south OF Fort
Wool Friday afternoon about 5 o'clock
Across the little craft was a tell-tale
piece Of towing line serving to con
vince the naval officers that they
are right in their theory that the
launch was run down by float OF
some kind in tow Of tug. The diver
who went down to examine the launch
reported that the heads and arms OF
three men were protruding from be-
meath the canvass covering; the men
having made desperate fight for life
when they were carried down like rats
in trap.
It will be o'clock Saturday morn.
ing before the launch can be raised
and no one knows how many bodies
will be found.
