A meeting was held at the univer-
sity this afternoon, at which time Rev.
Hunt, the evangelist was the principle
speaker. The armory at the univer-
sity was used for the meeting, and
it was we'll filled with students. Mr..
Gilmore, the soloist was present, and
Revs. Moore, Myrland and Miller were
also in attendance.
One of the best sermons preached
during the revival was that delivered
by Rev. Munt in the Baptist church
Tuesday evening. He took for his
subject "For God so loved the world,
that he gave his only begotten son,
that whosoever believeth in Him,
should not perish, but have everlast-
ing life."
Rev. Hunt said that there was a
hell, and that the wicked should be
punished for serving the devil. On
the other hand. he said that those
who believe in God should have eter-
nal life.

stares out from behind every counter.
Mr.. Mayer is already open for bust
ness. but, as stated above, formal

SON OF ENGLISH LORD
Was Arrested at Devils Lake-Gave
Himself Up to the Officials
Wanted in MinneapOlis.

A man aged about SO years, giving
his name as Alex E. Granville, and
who claims to be known as kid Cor
don," surrendered himself to Sheriff
Bedford at Devils Lake and said he was
wanted at Minneapolis for burglarlzlng
the Dollar Hat store last November.
Sheriff Belford wired the chief of po-
lice at Minneapolis at once. Granville
says he is a son Of Lord Granville Of
London, England, and that he came to
America -four years ago. He says he
received a remittance" of $50 a
month until last fall. when his folks
heard a woman story about him and
cut him off. Being without funds, an
entire stranger to any kind OF work,
which from infancy he had been taught
to avoid, he conceived the idea or rob-
bing a store, which, he says. he pro-
ceeded to do. 1t appears that his first
attempt at making easy money has
never given him much satisfaction; in
fact, has proven constant source OF
annoyance and worry to him. He de-
clares he will never be happy again
until he has paid the penalty of his fol-
ly, and is anxious to get back to Min
neapolis and commence doing atone

ly we'll dressed, and it is plain to be
seen that he has seen better days. He

Action by Board of Health to
Prevent Further Spread Of
Scarlet Fever.
TWO STUDENTS DIED

Ladies' Dormitory.

BY order Of the city and county
board of health, Grand Forks college
was placed under quarantine restric-
lions this morning, with view to pre-
venting the further spread of scarlet
fever, from which disease during the
past fortnight two pupils have died.
The number of students AFFLICTED Is
restricted, only four cases being re-
ported, but the authorities deemed it
wise to take every needful precaution
against the possibility of the disease
becoming epidemic.
The enrolment at the college is
something over a hundred and fifty,
but not half that many of the students,
1t is believed, have been exposed. Most
of those quarantined are girls, there
being only girls dormitory at the in

Last year, the weighing of mail took
place in North Dakota. The weighing
is done so as to form an idea of how
much mail is transported, and four
year contract is based on the figures
thus secured. The United States is
divided up into districts, and the
weighing today started on the Chicago
district, which includes Minnesota.
This work is the reweighing of the
mails carried by the railroads of the
third contract section of the United
States, in which is the sixth, or Chica-
go, division of the railway mail service.
The work lasts about 105 days.
For months there has been big de-
ficiency in applicants for work in the
postal service. On the coast the lists
are so depleted that some Of the men
who are now working on runs in the
far west have had to be drawn from
eastern divisions of the service. The
trouble has been that there have been
a large number of designations from
the service on account of poor pay and
little chance of promotion, and for the
same reason there have been few &C.

During the last weighing in this dis

some OF the best help obtainable came

on as to where it will come from.
Some years ago all the help of this

there are several divisions of railway
mail service.
1t has been estimated that in the
sixth, or Chicago, division alone the
expense of weighing runs between ST.
500 and $4,000 day for 1O5 days. The
expense Is taken out of the fund ap-
propriated for the transportation of
mails on railroads. The mails of each
section are reweighed every four years

CRARY OFFICIALS CENsUREO
Reported That Effects Of F. E. Davis,
Well Known Travelling Man Who
Died Recently Being Held.

Fargo Forum: The manner in which
the authorities and others at Crary, ".
D., disposed of the body and effects OF
F. E. Davis, the Fargo travelling man
who dropped dead in Crary couple of
weeks ago, is being investigated by
friends of the family of the dead man,
and unless complete restitution is
made at once of money claimed to have
been taken from Davis person, there
will be developments of a nature not
to the liking of certain parties in Cra-
ry.
For several days it has been COM
mon talk on the streets that all of Mr.
Davis property had not been returned
to this city. Slowly, however, the diff
ferent articles in the possession of MI.
Davis at the time of his death have
been arriving in the city, but there
still remains, according to Mrs. Davis,
at least $50 which she is very positive
her husband had in his possession at
the time of his death.
It Is claimed that the authorities at
Crary were very lax all through. In
the first place, there was an unneces-
sary and inexcusable delay in shipping
the body to this city. Then there was
delay in sending checks for grips
which had been sent here, resulting in
Mr.. Davis widow being obliged to pay
storage. A watch which had been pre-
scented to MIR. Davis by the North Da-
kota F1remen's association was held
up some time, but was finally sent to
Mrs. Davis, together with 500, which
belonged to the company represented
by Mr.. Davis.
Mrs. Davis is very certain that her
husband had $50 of his own in his pos
session at the time of his death. She
has not received a cent of this amount,
however, and the matter is now being
investigated.
