ding at the hands of the senate yester-
day The amendments of the commit

horse stealing at Williston. 1t was
claimed that Miller and man named
Cox had stolen horses from DIR. Day, a
rancher in Mckenzie county. He was
arrested at Bottineau and taken to
Schafer. The case came up at the
term Of court held about six weeks
ago in Mckenzie county, before Judge
Winchester. A change of venue was
asked by the defendant, who claimed
that he could not get fair trial In
that county, as the people were preju-
diced. 1t was refused. An AFFIDAVIT of
prejudice was then filed against the
Judge, but was afterward withdrawn.
On the evening court adjourned at
schafer, Miller made dastardly as
sault ON Attorney Bessie. who had
been assisting in prosecuting the case.
as the latter was stepping into the no
tel, breaking his jaw. The people
wanted to lynch him. but Mr.. Bessie
prevented 1t. Miller was thereafter
closely guarded, and was taken to Mi
not, where he was confined until the
coonvening Of court at Mandan last
Monday. Mr.. Bessie assisted States
Attorney Norheim in prosecuting the
case at Mandan. The Jury was Out
five minutes. when they returned q
verdict of guilty. The Judge sentenced
him to 1--WE years in the penitentiary.

Lot Sale Of Milwaukee Townstte Com.
pany q Grand Success.
The sale of town lots at Bowman by
the Milwaukee railroad townsite Off.
Gals was a great success in every
sense of the word, both in point of at
tendance and In prices brought.
There we're about $500 people at
the sale. Many Of them were persons
who had camped there waiting for the
sale of lots, but a large majority of
the crown were outsiders. The first
choice brought $1,750. the second
brought 5000, the third $1,100, the
fourth $500, the fifth 5000. the sixth
$500. Residence lots sold for $110.
In all 178 lots were disposed of and
the total amount realized was $43,011.
Parties who were questioned regard
ing the report that the Milwaukee road
will be completed as far as Miles City.
Mont, within four days, were consid-
erably skeptical as to its truth. They
say that the tracklayers are not six
miles west of Bowman. Marmath. the
next town to the west, is about twenty.
eight miles from Bowman on the Little
Missouri and 1t is big question
whether the remaining twenty-five
miles can be laid and connected with
the road west of the Little Missouri
within that many days.

CUTS THROAT WHILE ASLEEP.

Farmer Wakes 20 Find He Has At.
tempted Suicide.
With q cash seven inches long and
through the windpipe in his neck, four
ugly cuts through the arteries Of the
wrist and seven punctures above the
heart Ole j. Germundson, Sawyer
farmer, is lying at the Ward county
hospital at Minot on the fair road to
recovery.
Germundson slept Saturday night at
the Merchants hotel in Sawyer and
was discovered in the morning lying In
a pool of blood.
The tale he tells, which is carried
out by the wounds, is one of the most
CHASTITY ever heard by the professional
men Of the city. He claims he awoke
from a sound sleep only in the morn
Ing to find himself attempting to carve
his body up. Seven jabs were made
at his heart with a rusty knife which
he carried, but none of them took ef-
feet, only penetrating the skin. The
man then gashed both wrists, cutting
through the large arteries which run
through that patt of the body. Not
satisfied with this he made slash at
his neck. The first cut merely cut the
skin and did not penetrate as far as
the man desided. The knife was then
inserted below the right ear and
drawn across the neck to the other
ear, making a cash seven inches long
and when his head was thrown back
four inches wide.
1t extended down to the windpipe in
one place cutting through a portion Of
the cartilage surrounding the channel
When interviewed the man claimed
that he had no intention Of committing
suicide. but that he awoke to find thai
he had done the deed. He claimed tina
the idea was SO strong upon him tina
he could not stop. He said that las
year he had the typhoid fever and tina
he has not felt right since. He alst
stated that he felt another attack com
ing on. 1t is believed that the previ
oous illness had some effect on tn

PRODUCTIVE POWER OF
WESTERN CANADA SOIL
Winnipeg Correspondence.

Winnipeg Correspondence.
There has never been any who have
doubted the productiveness of the soil
of Western Canada, but there are
sometimes found those who question
the fact of its superiority. During the
past season it has been shown that
in grain raising qualities it possessed
the very best. The late spring pre-.
vented grain being sown in many
cases before the middle of May. Yet,
large percentage of that sown at that
time produced excellent yields. Had 1t
not been for the frost early in August,
which visited most Of the north half
Of the continent, there would have
been a magnificent yield in every dis.
trict in Western Canada. Throughout
the Southern Alberta district where
about 100000 acres was sown to win.
ter wheat the yield will be enormously
large. There are vast tracts Of valu-
able grain growing land in Western
Canada that are available for home.

That 10 What the Modern Woman
Would Call Her.
It is questionable whether the real
Greek woman, of that immortal epoch
when sculpture meant something
more than a decorative end to an arch
itectural means, possessed the chaste
loneliness accredited to her in the
chiseled remnants left to us. It has
ever been the within Of artists to
work away from the physical facts of
their models toward the ideals of their
fancy. The sculptor is usually a
proudly careless historian and but a
poor reporter. All Greek sculpture
doubtless is highly glorified record
of true Greek ethnology. But, grant
ing such woman as say. the Venus
de Milo did exist in all her bodily and
facial perfection, she would meet with
but cold reception at the hands of our
critics of femininity to-day. Her mod
ern women associates would, am GER
tain, adjudge the classic lady trump.
Ideals change with the centuries II
nature does not.
