her baby which was only seven
days old. the father of the baby
lives somewhere in the east.
Thorsen was making prepara-

statement that he was going over
and give the girl a good beating
and then would leave for the west.
After getting to the Willard home
he and Miss Willard quarreled and
then Thorsen pulled revolver
and shot the girl in the face. He
then shot himself, the bullet en-
tering the forehead and passing
clear through the head.
The funeral of Miss Willard
was held at the home yesterday
afternoon and the remains were
buried in the Williston cemetery.
The Thorsen funeral was held at
Epping and the remains buried

MAN OVER 100
IN CASS co.
ANTON KOENIC OF CASSIETON HAS PASSED
HUNDRED MARK And IS NOW
1903 YEASS OF ACE

Casselton Reporter:-Not many
communities have man a hun
dred or more years old in their
midst. But Casselton has, for
Anton Koenig, who has lived here
for quarter of century has un-
doubtedly passed the centennial Of
of his existence. For years his
advanced age has Keen common
talk and on numerous occasions
kindly disposed people have con-
tributed at Christmas time to the
comfort of himself and aged wife
who is fiften or twenty years
younger.
A few weeks ago it became
known that Mr.. Koenig's birth
day was to occur on the 9TH inst.
1t was then rumored that he
would be 100 years of age, but
people who have seen his birth re-
cord-a paper kept until quite
lately-say that they read it at
I7O4-which puts his age at 103.
It was decided to make Mr.. X and
his wife substantial present on
his natal day. A beginning was
made after the lecture of a week
ago Wednesday but later a paper
was circulated; about $50 being
raised-which Alderman Runch
presented. OF course the gift was
thoroughly appreciated and the
aged couple were made very happy
Mr.. Koenig is still able to get
around some, but his wife is more
feeble than he. On Sunday last
he shaved himself and on Tuesday
his anniversary-He was given
ride in Hanson's Automobile and
enjoyed it.
Mr.. Koenig.s history is not OBJ
tainable but he was born close to
the line between Germany and
France and served in the French
army. He came to Casselton from
Minnesota City but we have been
unable to find out when he emf
grated from the old country.

Will PROSECUTE
INSURANCE AGENTS
POLICY HOLDERS IN MUTUAL AND new
YORK LIFE ARE TO PROSECUTE
AGENTS FOR FORGERY

New York, May 9-After a con-
ference yesterday between Richard
Olney of Massachusetts,, chairman
of the international Policy holders
committee; Samuel Untermyer,
the committees council and ex-
Judge Alton B. Parker, chairman
of the executive committe of the
policy holders organization, it was
announced that meeting of the
general committee would be called
for May Is to determine whether
steps would be taken looking to
the prosecution of the Mutual and
New York Life agents in thirty
two states for the alleged forging
of administration ballots in the
two companies.
The international committee at
the same meeting will arrange to
raise funds to keep up the fight for
code of insurance laws that will
safeguard the interests Of the pol
icy holders in the elections. This
move is in effect an answer to the
arrest of Manager Serugham of
the committee and of two Of his
employees, Chas. Strip and G.
F. Darlington on a charge Of con-
spiracy. The basis of the move
which the international committee
may take against the agents of two
companies in the thirty-three states
lies in the affidavits which it is
stated have been collected from
some thousand of policy holders
all over the country on the ques-
tion of alleged forged BALLOTS.

to speak of it's own part of the
state and be sure of the statement
regarding other sections. 1t is
true that we are having colder
weather here than usual but it is
also true that on Saturday last we
mad the finest day of the year and
we believe that it was just as much
like summer" as Fargo weather.
1t was a regular summer day and
there was no snow that day or
since.

attendance and the gate receipts
amounted to about 500. The

and Franklin; Mondak, Slette and
Eastman. Mr.. Mitchell was in
the city for short time and liked
it so we'll that he decided to come

the first Of June to stay. Both
batteries did excellent work, four
teen Williston boys tanning out
and twenty MOndak ball tOSSerS
following suit.
Tomorrow the boys 60 to Sprin-
brook to- play where the Norweg-
ian people are celebrating their in
