New York children will troop reluctantly back

night, and announced that he
was going to Duluth. After the
barber shops safe was robbed.
Brorbers was suspected and
Chief Hagen arrested him just
as, he was stepping aboard the
G. N. train to take him out of
the city. He was placed in jail
and on Tuesday was let out on
$1,000 bonds.
Brothers declares that he is in
nocent OF any crime. He says
thao he did not keep it a secret
that be was going to leave. lie
admits that he knew the combi-
nation Of the safe and had been
trusted about the shop, butsays
further that he never TOOK a cent
that did not belong to him.

ing Rapidly.

Minot's population as return
ed by the census takers and ac-
cepted by the council Monday
night is 67S1. This is an excel
lent showing, inas1nuch as the
census takers were very careful
in not counting any Of the float
ing population of which Minot
has ordinarily 1000.
Minot has been growing very
rapidly and in fact is growing
right along. The census records
show that our city had a pOpu-
lation of but $500.
The Independents guess OF
$500 was not far out Of the wav.
Minot will be a city OF 10000
population within two years
The new census will enable NLinot
to secure a nice sum OF money
from Carnegie for the library
and will also enable the Elks to
establish Il lodge in this city.
The Eiks contributed $1OO to-
wards taking the census and the
business men raised the balance.

BOOT LEGGERS NUMEROUS.
How They Dispose of Their
Booze---Agents for the Blind
Pigs.

The Minot police are having a
hard time coping with the num-
erous boot leggers, who are hired
by the blind pigs to dispense tt e
booze. The bootleggers work
the deal in a clever manner,
making it hard to secure the pro-
per evidence to convict them.
The bootlegger hangs around
the side streets and when he sees
q man with his tongue hanging
out OF his mouth, approaches
him and asks him If be doesn t
waut some beer. Upon being
answered IN the affirmative, he
tells the thirsty fellow to wait
and he soon is back with three
bottles OF beer in the big pockets
of his coat and he is off with the
strangers dollar. He is simply
the agent for the piggers.

must AGAIN DISTURB
REMAINS Of PRIEST
Body of Minot's First Catho-
lie PriestLies BeneathAltar
of the Church Which Soon
Will be Torn Down--First
Buried in Cemetery.

Lying beneath the altar Of the
Catholic church in this city are
the remains Of the first priest
Minot ever had, the Reverend
Father having died at the Leland
hotel in this city in the YEAR
1883. John McJannett states
that he was present when the re-
mains were inferred in the Cath
olic cemetery in this city. The
father died very suddenly at the
age of about thirty-fve. When
the church was erected in 1889,
the remains were taken from the
cemetery and buried under the
altar. The foundation of the
church had just been com rleted
when the remains were removed
from the cemetery.
The excavation for the new
church is progressing rapidly.
and no doubt soon the remains of
the pioneer priest will soon be
found. They will probably again
be inferred, this time under the
new church, where the chances
are they will never again be dis
turbed.
In the early days OF Minot, be-
fore the Catholic church was
erected, the father now dead,
held services in the little school
house, which long ago disap-
peared.

ChaS. Good as a Miner
Well Known Mnot Miner Returns From the Gofd-
field Mnes---TeIIs Many Interesting Expert
ences---Has Twelve Good CIaims---Dr.
Smpkins Doing Well.

Chas. Good returned Tuesday
from Goldfeld, New, where he
has been prospecting for gold
since last February. Charlie to-
gether. with A. p. Slocum, own
twelve gold mining claims forty
miles from Goldfeld which are
close to mines which promise
great things.
Three of those claims jim a
famous mine which recently sold
for $240, 200. Mr.. Good has been
working hard in the gold regions
and is glad to get back for rest.
He bought a mule team and spent
several hundred dollars in i'm
proving the claims. Water is
very scarce in the vicinity of his
claims, it being necessary to haul
water for himself and mules a
distance of twelve miles. The
water cost him a dollar a barrel
and he was compelled to draw it
by hand from an eighty foot
we'll. A bale of hay cost him
$6. 40 and a hundred pound sack
of barley cost $3.50,
Wages are five dollars day
and better. The miners get big
wages, besides steal considerable
ore. Such miners are called high
graders, and always spend their
money as fast as they secure it.

a single night. Any old kind of.
a gambling game can be played
and the stakes have no limit.
Mr.. Good has several samples;
of gold ore taken from the mines.
by the high graders. ST en-
ore is worth $40 pound. Mr..
Good traded several of his tools;
for the gold.
Charlie saw the famous naner,
"Scottie" drive thru the streets
of Goldfield with a wagon load of:
gold ore, eight horses to theload.
"Scottie" has a mine in the ia
nous Death Valley and rides to
and from the mines in an auto.
People who have chased him
thinking they would learn where.
his mine is, have been killed, pre-
sumably by "Scottie. - Recent
ly another auto followed the one
driven by Scottie and his pal, but
became lost and returned.
Doc. Simpkins, formerly of
Granville, is located in the gold
mining regions near Mr.. Good's
claim. Doc is doiny we'll. His
daughter, Mrs. Pasanault, resides
in the same tow. Her husband
who is a barber, is coming money
at 25 cents a shave, so cents a
hair cut and dollar a bath.

| cen a great student of medicine
making a spe cialty of the eye,
ear, ETC., and went mainly to
make researches along those
lines. DR.. Crokat in writing a
friend recently stated that he
had not seen DR.. Klemer for
some little time because he, DR..
Klemer was very busy in his
work.
DR.. Klemer was a model young
man, about twenty eight years
of age and a better physician did
not practice in the northwest.
He was born at Fairbault, Mimi.
His grandfather started the Fair
bault wooden mills with two looms
years ago and the doctors father
and uncle continued the business,
making the mills one Of the most
important industries in that part
of the state. The doctor himself
owned stock in the mills. The
Klemers therefore We're veal by
people. He received his medical
education at the University of
Minnesota, and afterwards spent
two years as house surgeon at
the Luther hospital. Later he
went to Germany and TOOK a post
graduate course. He came to
Minot and opened an of1icein No

before, he was united in mar
riage to young woman from
Red Wing. Mimi, who formerly
lived at Fairbault. and to this
union a baby daughter was born
who with the mother survive.
Mrs. Klemer did not accompany
her husband to Germany, but re-
mained with relatives at Fair
bault and Red Wing. The blow
to the poor wife will be a hard
one indeed.
DR.. Klemer was one of the ris-
ing men If his profession. Young
in years, he was old in ideas and
he was a man that the world
would soon have heard from had
he lived. He was a man in every
sense Of the word, and his early
demise is to be deeply regretted
not only by the medical fratern.

Sudden Death Of Physician
DR.. c. A. klemer Dies Suddenly at Berlin, Ger
many---very Prominent in Minot and vicn-
ty---Was Rising Young Man in
His Profession.

When word reached Minot Sat-
urday afternoon that one Of our
leading physicians, DR.. c. A.
Klemer had died suddenly in
Berlin. Germany, business men
forgot their work in contempla-
ton of the terrible loss this means
to our community. Everywhere
one could hear expressions Of
deep regret. for no one ever en-
deared himself to Iany people
more than did DR.. Klemer to the
residents of this city during the
year and a half that he resided
mere. The news concerning his
death so far has been very mea-
gre. Gov. Bond, who has been
visiting in Minneapolis, was told
by cousin Of the deceased, that
Dr.. Klemer had passed away at
Berlin very suddenly on Aug. %,
and that an old college chum of
his, a young doc,ot who has been
in Germany for several years,
was on the way home with the
remains. The remains will be
taken to Fairibault, Mimi, at
once, the old home Of the deceas-
ed. where interment will take
place.
DR.. j. D. Taylor received a let
ter Monday from DR.. Klemer
written in Berlin Aug. IA. The
doctor did not complain of feel
ing i'll at all in the letter, and in
fact the general tone of the let
ter would lead one to believe that
he was as rugged as ever. He
spoke about being nearly thru
with his post graduate work and
said he would soon be ready to
return to Minot.
He exp ected to be in this city
sometime during September to
resume his practice by Oct. l.
This leads one to believe that his
death must have been very sud-
denly--perhaps an accident--an
infection-or some other extraor-
binary circumstance.

the Cottonwood Lake school
house was lifted from it's foun-
dation and scattered over a half
miles distance over the prairie.
Tue stove was found in Cotton
wood lake, over a half a mile
from its original place. The hail
destroyed the crops of John
Frantsvog, Joe Heck and Har-
old Overn. About one-half the
crops of Knute Frantsvog, John
Selbe and Gust Solsen were also
destroyed. During the storm a
bolt of lightning struck the house
of Sam Mathison, causing the in
slant death of his eighteen
months old. child. It appears
that MIR. Mathison had just re-
tired with his wife and child
when lightning entered the house
and struck Mr.. Matthison on the
foot. It then passed over the
child, which was lying on its
mothers arm, literally burning
the flesh where it passed. The
mothers arm was badly stunned
but she soon recovered.
