Curio Shop IN Devils Lake
IN "A Visit Will Repay You

Perhaps the people of Devils Lake
are not aware of the fact that we have
right here in our midst one of the
finest curio shops In the country, not
mere farce as is oftentimes the case
with this class of collections, but there
are articles in this, curio from all the
tropical climes and from the Orient.
from sunny Italy, from the central
zone and from all parts of Europe and
| Asia. There are pyrimids from the
Egyptian deserts, sabers and swords
of the most famous warriors of the
world, pistols that were used in duels
fought by the ancients, brides from
the steeds that carried the generals
of great armies, in fact everything that
F., is unique and highly valued as sou.
venir from foreign lands can be found
in this collection. -
If you have a few spare minutes
some afternoon while down town a
visit to this curio will be time we'll
! spent and you will go away much
, wiser for it. It is not place we'll
advertised in the city as curio shop
and only few Of the owners choice
friends have had the pleasure of visit
ing this place of curiosities as the
owner is not man to advertise his
private affairs, but the place is always
open for the people of Devils Lake
and you are invited to call and look
at these specimens of modern and
Devils Lake inter-ocean and Devils Lake free press. (Devils Lake, Ramsey County, N.D.) 1905-1909, 1908-05-08

There is also crudely made, but
very antique, bride that was snatch
ed from the horse on which Auginaldo
the leader of the Filininos rode on his
wild ride through the bamboo jungles
in trying to escape capture at the
hands of the American forces. Cap
tain Cogswell claims the honors of sc.
curing the bride and of being the only
one Of the American soldiers that Au-
ginaldo told to Skidoo.
In years gone by when fish tried to
crowd each other out of Devils Lake
there came along fisherman who car
ried deadly spear and with this har-
pooh of death brought some three
hundred tons of fish to the land. This
spear is also among the collection and
Mr.. Prosser values it very highly and
informs us that it was from this in
strument that the American Tobacco
company got their idea. to name
"Spearhead" chewing tobacco after.
On either side of this spear are two
canes which are rare relics and were
donated to the collection by DR.. Craft.
One of them was found by this gen.
tleman at Lake Minnetonka in Mime
sofa over sixty years ago and the
other was found on RockTIsland in the
preservation and is an Indian relic and

ancient times. ,..
The curio shop is located in the
Office of Mr.. Frank Prosser and he will
take great pleasure in explaining to
visitors the romantic and historic
stories of the articles found in his
place. AS you enter the office the first
thing that greets your eye will be
one of those famous Toledo Blades
| that was used during the great con-
flict between the two factions in Spain
thousands of years ago, and Mr.. Pros
ser feels very proud of this weapon
as it was given to him a number of
years ago by. an old Spaniard whose
ancestors had fought in these blood
conflicts
Turn your eyes little to the right
and they will rest upon "bolo" which
is terrible dangerous knife-life wea-
pom that was added to Mr.. Prosser's
collection by Capt. Cogswell. This
"odpou was SeculSu willie lie Cap
tain was in the Philippines and he
was only able to obtain it after a
fierce struggle with a Filipino who
bounced upon him with the ugly knife
and was about to take his life, but he
was overcome by the captain and re-
lieved of the weapon. Hanging d.
rectly under this is badge that was
presented to Mr.. Cogswell for serving
