Prof. Clint. o. Smith, . Linton Blu.
stness Man and Leader Of the
Band, Dies Of heart.Dlsease.
Prof. Smith is dead. He died at 4
O'Clock yesterday afternoon. He had
not been feeling we'll since the Fourth
OF July. Marching and playing dur
ing the extreme heat of that day,
supplemented by recent trip as q
delegate from Linton lodge to the X.
p. grand lodge meeting at Grand
Forks, was too much for . heart al
ready showing signs of weakness.
From the time of his return from the
grand lodge session he had been feel
Ing much worse, but no one thought
that death was so near. For several
days after he began to feel badly he
remained at home, and then, not get.
ting better, he went to the Hogue
hospital, where he passed away. His
death was peaceful and easy.
Deceased would have been 81 years
old the 14th Of this month. He was
born in Cincinnati. Ohio. He was
married in 1871 to Miss Cora B. STAINS
berry, at Saybrook, Ill. He is survived
by one son, DIR. G. o. Smith, the Lin
ton dentist. Two sons are dead
Charles b. and Clair C.
Prof. Smith came to North Dakota
in 1897. lie first resided in Mandan.
He then went to Reynolds, In Grand
Forks county, and then to Linton.
His wife died at Reynolds In 1902.
Mr.. Smith was fine musician, be-
ing heartily devoted to his profession.
He had becn band leader for years.
Among the bands which he had led
we're that of the Third Regiment at
Arapahoe, Neb.; the Concert Band
and the Juvenile Band at Red Lake
Falls, Mimi; the Light Guard Band
at Saybrook, ILL.,; the Second Regi-
ment Band at Girard, Kan; the Me-
tropolitan Band at Hillsboro; the
Reynolds Concert Band, the Man
dan Military Band and the Linton
Concert Band. He came to Linton
about three years ago and established
a photograph gallery, which is in oper.
alton at the present time. He also
took charge Ut our band and has made
it one of the best In the state. From
1893 to 1896 lie was director of the
union of state bands Of Nebraska.
Prof. Smith was a member Of the
Odd Fellows. the Improved Order Of
Red Men, and of the Knights Of Pyth.
las. He was vice-chancellor Of Linton
X. p. lodge. He was one of the most
earnest workers in tile organization ol
the lodge.
No citizen Of Linton could have
passed away who would have been
missed in greater degree than Prof
Smith will be. He was of a sociable
nature, and he took great inter
est in everything of a public nature
that tended to advance the reputation
or material interests of the town II
hardly seems possible that he has left
us. There is much sympathy for DR.
Smith, his only son. The relations o.
the two men were more in the nature
of companions than of father and son
and their home life was happy in the
extreme.
1t will be a long time before the
people Of Linton forget the kind, pub
lic-spirited old gentleman who, every
day, was being more firmly established
In their respect and high regard.
The funeral will take place this aft
ernoon at O'Clock, at the house. TIL,

Former United States Senator John
L. McLaurin, of South Carolina, who
is i'll New York TO take part in the
progress of the injunction suit brought
by Theodore H. Price, the cotton
operator, against the New York cot
ton exchange, to restrain the ex-
change from enforcing its system of
grading cotton, talked Sunday night
concerning the points at issue in the
case. The suit follows a preliminary
injunction obtained by Price, but the
provisions of which he agreed to
waive, provided the exchange would
agree to an immediate trial upon the
principles at issue. To this the ex-
change consented, and Justice Bis
choff. of the supreme court, named
Charles E. Rushmere, referee to take
testimony. Prices counsel is William
NJ WINS, and Henry W. Taft repre-
sents the cotton exchange. Senator
McLaurin said:
Il hope that | shall have the benefit
of the cooperation and advice of all
persons who agree that the point of
suit is right, and particularly those
whose demands for a strict fulfllmeng
OF their outstanding contracts viii
help to force the exchange to adopt
the reforms sought to be effected.
With regard to the attitude Of the
south ON the entire question, l think

AS CONSUMPTION CURE
Cotton Seed Oil Will Be Substituted
for Cod Liver Product.


Dr. George Brown, president Of the
Anti-Tuberculosis League of America,
and who is a recognized authority on
consumption and the treatment of the
Great White Plague" has just made
public a remedy which is bound to
revolutionize the treatment Of this
dread disease.
1t IS the substitution of cotton
seed oil for cod liver oil in the emul
sions.
DR.. Brown has been experimenting
with these oils for years and has
made particular study of the use
of cotton seed oil during the past
year and it is on the splendid results
which have followed the substitution
of cotton seed oil for cod liver oil
that he has made public the state
ment.
The two oils have been chemically
analysed and it has been found that
the fat giving properties preponder-
ate in the cotton seed OIL The fact
that the nauseous taste and smell is
to be eliminated by this substitution
and at the same time none Of the
health giving elements are eliminat.
ed add greatly to the favor of the
change.
In his treatment of tuberculosis
where the emulsion was used, DR..
Brown has found that where twenty
five out Of one hundred persons
could take the cod liver oil emulsion
that seventy-fve out of one hundred
could take the emulsion where cotton
seed oil has been substituted
Being more easily digested and hav-
ing greater heat-giving properties and
absolutely devoid of any disagreeable
odor or taste another field for this
southern product has been found and
will soon be on the market.

Government Witnesses Tell
OF Brownsville Affair.
THEIR EVIDENCE DIRECT
Negro Soldiers Were Seen With Guns
and Were Seen in Act of Shoot
ina-Foraker Fails to Shake
Testimony.

The examination OF witnesses on be-
half of the government began Wednes-
day in the Brownsville investigation
before the senate committee on mill
tary affairs at Washington.
George W. Kendall of Brownsville,
Texas, the first witness, testified that
on the night Of August 10, when the
ARRAY occurred in Brownsville, he saw
men whom he declared to be negro
soldiers, climb over the brick wall
from Fort Brown and enter the town.
he said that he also saw group OF
from three to five men inside the
garrison gate and saw the flash of
two or three shots fired by men in
this group.
At Thursdays session two other
witnesses testified that they saw ne
gro soldiers shoot up the Texas town
on the night of August IS.
One of these witnesses was Lieu
tenant Dominguez, of the Brownsville
police, who received a bullet through
the arm, and had his horse shot from
under him while trying to warn citi-
zens Of the approach of the armed
men. whom he declared positively to
be negro soldiers from the garrison,
and another was Policeman Padron,
who described a busy quarter of an
tive that the men doing the shooting
hour lodging bullets. He also was pos
were negro soldiers.
Dr. Charles H. Thorn, dentist, tes-
tilted that he heard group of men
firing at the rear Of his house and
shouting commands to each other. He
gave as his judgment that the voices
were those of negroes. F. A. H. San
born, manager of the Western Union
Telegraph company, who occupied d
room opposite the garrison, testified
to seeing the negro soldiers enter the
post at about the time. the firing
ceased.
Policeman Senaro Padron testified
that he was at the corner of Washing
ton and Fourteenth streets shortly be-
fore midnight and that he saw sol
diers in the alley half block away,
and that they were shooting. He said
he could distinguish their uniforms
when the guns flashed. He told OF the
meeting with the lieutenant of police,
but contradicted the statement Of
Dominguez that he had said the men
had just finished shooting up" the
Cowan house.
According to Padrons story he &C.
companied Dominguez back to Thir-
teenth street and part of the way to
an alley near the Miller hotel He
said he went no further because Dom
inguez would not heed his warning
not to cross the alley. He told Of
seeing negro soldiers rush out and
FIRE at Dominguez and follow him
some distance down Fourteenth street
He did not see Dominguez when his
horse was shot from under him, as
the men saw him CPadron) and started
firing at him. Padron told of the run
ming from place to place to escape
danger and finally Of taking refuge
in an obscure doorway.
The witness was cross-examined by
Senator Foraker at some length with
out affecting his story. Dominguez
also was cross-examined by Senator
Foraker, but his story was not chang
ed in the least

horse was bitten by the animal,
out the beast was finally captured by
seven men in the Elkin-Watson drug
store, without having killed any one,
and without being injured itself.
AT 1915 o'clock just at the conclu
sion OF the last act of the perform.
ance given by The Great La1ay-
cite" shows at the Biiou Theater, a
large lion, fully four and one-half
feet in height and weighing fourteen
hundred pounds, broke one of the
steel stays of his cage, and set him
self free.
But for the quick work Of one of
the theater managers in closing the
door leading into the main auditorium,
the wild beast would have walked
out into the pit and created panic
among the large audience. Instead
he was forced through a rear door
into the street
When the animal reached the side
walk in front of the theater a police
man drew his revolver and attempted
to shoot, but Lafayette, the owner
of the shows, who was following in
hot pursuit, jumped in between the po-
liceman and the lion, thus prevent
ing the policeman from shooting the
| beast.
Lafayette had a pistol, with blank
cartridges, and by shooting them at
the lion, succeeded in guiding him.
and preventing him from doing great
damage.
The animal ran from in front Of the
Bijou. up Marietta to Forsyth, up For
syth into Broad, up Broad to Walton,
across Walton to Peachtree, and down
Peachtree into Elkin-Watson's drug
store, at the corner of Peachtree and
Marietta.
Just as the lion reached Peachtree
a hackman came driving down the
hack No. SO, came driving down the
street. The beast made wild dash
for the horse, biting large piece
Of flesh from his front fore leg.
When the beast entered the drug
store, he went at once behind the
counter, and was in complete control
Of the store, for the clerks had climb
ed upon the showcases, and one had
gotten up on top of the soda fountain
Considerable damage was done in
the store by the breaking OF the glass
covering the showcases. Once he had
been quartered in the store, the doors
we're quickly closed, and his capture
effected.
Lafayette, the owner Of the shows
was taken into custody and carried
to the police barracks, where he was
placed under a $500 bond. He put
ND cash bond.
