EASY MONEY.
The EeIding-HaII Co.'s AffaIrS Are
in Bad Shape.


The discovery by the creditors of the
Belding-Hall Manufacturing Co.. Of
Belding and Chicago, that Jesse Hall,
president of the company, had appro-
priated at least $4,000 of the COM
pany's funds to his private use, led to
the appointment of receiver.
All of this money, as far as can
be learned, was invested in mining,
real estate and other ventures which
made no money. the combined stock
of which the creditors are willing to
sell for less than $4,000.
The First National bank of Chi
cago, which holds notes of the COM
pany aggregating 100000 will start
criminal proceedings, it is said, to
bring Hall back from Canada, as the
creditors believe that he will not re-
turn voluntarily.
1t is expected that the amount that
Hall borrowed as well as $4,000 loan
ed to others will be a total loss, as
he owned nothing except $4,000 worth
Of stock in the company.
Frank A. Jones, secretary of the

for the receiver, that the company
will be able to pay 65 cents on the

THE WARD-PREsLEY CASE CAME
UP FOR HEARING AND
WAS POSTPONED.
CHIEF COUNSEL ABSENT
The Case Assigned for October and
With II the Or. Friteh Case Also
Went over.
A Months Delay.

When the cases of Rep. Charles Il.
Ward, charged with completely in the
death of Edith Presley, the senate
proofreader, and DR.. George A. Fritch,
charged with manslaughter in connec-
ton with the same tragedy, came up
for examination in the Detroit police
court Friday morning, both were adj
journed for one month.
The case of Ward was adjourned to
October at the request of his counsel,
because Senator futile, his chief at
torney, is in Manchester. Eng.
When the prosecutor suggested put
ting the Frltch case over, Attorney
Frank T. Lodge protested. He wanted
his client examined Immediately.
II prefer to try Ward first" said the
prosecuting attorney. Ward is the
chief conspirator in this case and if
his case fails j will myself move TO
nolle PROSE- DR.. Fritch's case"
Il do not know what are Mr. Robi-
sons reasons for desiring to try Ward
first" said Justice Jeffries, but If it
is going to aid public justice l will fol-
low his suggestions and let the Fritch
case so over"
Prosecutor Robson was of the opin-
ion that speedy disposition should
then be made and no further delays
granted.
The case against DR.. Fritch was
then called and it was now the prose
cutor who asked for further time.
II want the examination of Mr..
Ward to come before that of the doc
tor the prosecutor gave as reason.
Attorney Lodge objected strenuous
ly.
The doctor is suffering from the
onus OF this criminal charge and wants
il determined. We have been ready
for months. All delays have come
from the prosecutor" he said
Mr.. Robson pointed out to the court
that both charges grew out of the
same alleged offense.
"Ill say this" he continued, that
| want Mr.. Wards examination first
and if his case falls through / shall
drop the charge against the doctor
Mr.. Lodge again pleaded against the
adjournment. He told the court that
there was no case against his client
as was plainly shown at the inquest.
The court. however, followed the re-
quest OF the prosecutor and granted
| the desired postponement.

THE WHO IRISH ROSE
a. j. r. in Minneapolis Journal Perts
About Dakota FlOwer-Tells
of its Beauty.

The bill to make the wild rose the
state flower of North Dakota has come
up again and ought to pass. This
bill was introduced two years ago at
the request of Bishop Mann. who is
an authority on botany and who
chose the wild rose as flower typi-
cal of the state and one that lends
itself to representation in carving and
kindred arts as state flower should.
Nothing is sweeter, shyer and more
beautiful than the wild rose Of the
north and Colonel De la Bere, VINO
has recently married one, is enthusl-
astic in favor of making the wild rose
the symbolical blossom of his adopted
state. 1t would be hard to beat the
wild rose in the favor of flower lovers,
and the only thing that can be con-
sidered in the same class with 1t for
North Dakota Is the beautiful flower
crystal of the snow, though that Is
unpopular in some quarters just now.
