branson Separates
Flaxton Druggist
OF $500

J. H. Minor, druggist Of Faxton,
last week says goolby to $4,000 cold
cash and gave a $1,000. 90 mortgage on
his stock of drugs, fixtures etc., just
because his affections for Miss Edna
Gilbranson, Of Minneapolis, withered
and died. "Distance makes the heart
grow fonder" did not prove true in
the case of Mr.. Minor, for while Miss
Gilbranson was lightly tripping the
streets In the Mill City, he decided
to take unto himself a North Dakota
girl and sadly neglected Edna. It is
said Mr.. Milnor sent a check for
$4,000 to Miss Gilbranson in Minnea-
polls, with which to come to FIaxton
and visit him, but when she arrived,
emphatically denied ever sending her
a check for 5000 or any other amount
and she..says "turned her down cold."
Under the conditions Miss Gilbransen
Immediately started suit for damages
on the ground of breach of promise.
Finally a settlement was agreed upon
for the amount stated above.
Mr.. Minor gave the State Bank of
Flaxton, a first mortgage on his stock
for the $500 which he gave to Miss
Gilbranson; her mortgage coming in
second. But, Edna, is not so slow,
and Immediately started for Minot,
where she had her mortgage filed
first, thereby getting $500 and has a
first mortgage on Minors stock.

sible for Bowbells to have as fast a
track as there is in the state, and the

make it the best there is, having
worked at It constantly for the past

the horses will reduce their records

Come out and greet us, on that

You can sally forth hand in hand,
Throw kisses at the girls and follow

You can fill the streets with your own
lusty noise,
And drown the sound of band and

The races will be days for chaps

Bring along all the jolly fellows

But when the gay time is over Well
all shed tear,
For we're laid Oh the shelf for an

STORMY SCENES IN I CHURCH.
Russian Orthodox PrOselytiSts Arrested In
Catholic Building In Williamsburg.

Catholic Building In Williamsburg.
Circulars urging members Of the Lithu-
anian Catholic Church Of Mary, Queen OF
the Angels, at South Fourth and Roebling
streets, Williamsburg, to secede from that
organization and join the chapel Of the Rus
sian Orthodox Church Of st. Nicholas, in
North Fifth street near Bedford avenue,
yesterday, caused a conflict with the police
and the arrest Of six men.
The Russian Orthodox Church of st.
Nicholas, at 10 East Ninety-sevehth street,
Manhattan, has among its members many
Russians who live in Williamsburg. These
members rather than make the journey
from Williamsburg often have attended
the services in the Lithuanian Catholic
Church. When il became known last week
that the old North Fifth Street Methodist
Episcopal Church in Williamsburg had
been purchased for $4,000 by the Rev.
G.. Hotovitsky Of the Russian Orthodox
Church in Manhattan and was to be used
as a chapel to the mother church to relieve
the congestion at the masses on Sunday,
Russian Catholics who belong to that faith
and who had been attending the Lithuanian
church determined to persuade as many

secede from the Lithuanian church.
In order to accomplish this they caused
thousands Of circulars in the Russian and
Lithuanian languages TO be distributed at
all the masses in the Williamsburg church
yesterday, The priests at the early masses
we're much annoyed when in the course Of
the services they noticed that worshippers
we're reading the circulars. Word was
sent 20 the distribut eTs to cease their work,
but no notice was taken Of it, Then the
trustees tried 70 stop the distribution and
there were such disorderly scenes that word
was sent TO the Bedford avenue police
station,
Several policemen we're sent TO the church
and when they got there the men who were
distributing the circulars refused TO stop
and stormy scenes ensued. The police
ended the argument by placing six men
under arrest. They we're Michael Jaczen-
wick OF 2A Metropolitan avenue; John
Wedzonsky, 1913 Leonard street; John
Zornotsky. ~ Broadway; Joseph Mer-
gineau. 1l2 North Sixth street; John Saldis
1855 Grand street, and Peter Stanislaus, 1923
North Sixth street. They were held on a
charge Of violating a corporation ordinance
in distributing circulars.
Services in the Russian Orthodox Chapel
will begin in about three weeks.
