knife BATTLE IN THE DARK
Aged Paupers Fight Desperately in
Almshouse at San Francisco
One Fatally Wounded.

San Francisco, March 5.-Enraged
septuagenarians, fighting a desperate
knife battle in the dark at the aims
mitory into a panic and resulted in the
fatal wounding of one of the partici-
pants. Louis Renton, 10 years old, is
now a prisoner, while Albert Kunz. ten
years younger, lies doing off to death
in the hospital ward with deep and
vicious stabs in the abdomen.
The two old men occupied neighbor-
ing beds, and the quarrel was started
by Renton opening a window, causing
draught that annoyed KunZ, who
shut down the sash. Then Renton
drew a knife from under his pillow and
the stabbing followed.

A regrettable accident is reported
from Portal, Ward county, where
young boy was shot through the
heart and instantly killed by an
agent for cartridge Co., who was
doing some fancy shooting at flying
targets, second shot while the tar
get was approaching the ground
killing the boy. Accidents Of this
sort frequently occur, and there is
a grave question as to how far the
responsibility for them should be
placed upon the person at whose
hands the accident happens. No one
believes for moment that the per-
son who did the shooting has any
other feeling but those of the deep
est regret and self reproach for his
part in the unfortunate affair. And
yet persons engaged in the use of
deadly weapons should not so far
forget the element Of danger in the
excitement Of the sport that there
is chance for the killing of any
one. All the regret and reproach
possible will not restore life to the
boy who was killed, nor will it pre-.
vent the frequent recurrence of such
regrettable fatalities. #

If the gently croaking frog when |
with the fine thunder and |
lispasion of the verse itself:
If you're searching for a location,
Why-not Minot.
It's the best town in creation,
Is Minot.
For a factory or mill,
You may travel where you will,
No place will fill the bill
Like Minot.
This is one of six verses, all of
which are equally good. 1t is
copyrighted, and we should not use
it, without permission, but we do not
think Mr.. Somers should object as
he is getting the laureateship in re-
turn for it.
Another lifting lyric is entitled.
Along the Minot Trail" which out
Brets Bret Harte. We publish a
single verse:
The only fuel that we knew,
Was prairie hay and straw,
From November until April
We never had a thaw.
I often thought I'D rather be
In some good warm Jail,
While twisting hay both night and
day,
Along the Minot trail.
The Minot Independent presents
Mr.. Somers' claim to the laureate
ship in these words:
With the removal of Jimmie
Foley, the famous Bismarck poet,
to the east, where he can better
handle his journalistic work, J.
J. Somers of this city, who stands
in the same class with Mr.. Foley,
can now lay claim to being North
Dakota's foremost poet.
Mr.. Foley does not intend to move
eastward until the beginning OF
another year at 1east-but he feels
that the laureateship should be pass
ed around, as other honors in the
gift of the people. It is fine dis
tinction-although it's pecuniary
profit is not large and Mr.. Somers
shall have it, if he will take it, with
it's burden of responsibilities.

T. r. u
David Bartlett Of Cooperstown,
formerly lieutenant governor of the
state, is now interested in the new
railway which is projected through
North Dakota, having as its initial
point Winnipeg with the Gulf of
Mexico as its terminus. Mr.. Bartlett
says the railroad is sure thing and
the right Of way is being obtained.
The road, if constructed, would give
direct shipping facilities to the port
of the Gulf, and would pass through
many North Dakota towns. We trust
the former lieutenant governor may
be successful in getting the right of
way and financing the project.

PASSING OF THE LAUREATEsHIP

An event of more or less import
ance in the literary circles of the
state is in the passing of the poet
laureateship from Mr.. Foley of the
Tribune, who has held the distinct
ion by apparently common consent
for several years, to the hands or
brow, or wherever a laureateship
ought to rest, to Mr.. j. J. Somers
of Minot, who is introduced to us
by the Minot Independent in these
terms:
Mr.. Somers is writing poetry
all the time, that is when his in
spiration strikes him, for he
writes on the impulse of the mo-
ment. Often an idea upon which
he has been dwelling for months
comes to him all in a moment,
and he drops whatever work he
may be doing, and lets nothing
interfere with his penning his
thoughts. Mr.. Somers has writ
ten enough poems to fill quit
large volume and this will soon
be published. His poetry is large
~ on the humorous order for
Jim" can see joke in nearly
everything. His best poems por-
tray life of the North Dakotan in
his true light for Mr.. Somers
gave up a thrifty grocery bust
ness in Minneapolis to come out
to North Dakota and take up
a homestead aalong the Minot
trail, forty miles north Of the
city. This was six years ago
and having small means he
farmed with a hoe" doing some
extraordinary good trucking. He
Was not afraid of honest work,
and made the prairie blossom
like the rose. His hospitable
farm home was always open to
friends and hundreds and hun
dreds enjoyed themselves at Jim
Somer's homestead.
Any man who will leave the a
surance Of well filled grocery sheIyt
for the uncertainty of poetry,
these practical days, is worthy /
the laureateship, irrespective of h
literary qualifications But Mr.. Son
ers has literary qualifications, ais
Of distinct and appealing kind. W
publish herewith choice fragmer
Of one OF his longer epics entitled
Why Not Minot.' The rhythm an
melody of the title strikes unfai
ingly on the ear at the very begil
ming, but pales into the soft cadens

We hear good deal these days
about the burden Of the transporta-
ton charge and the necessity for
substantial reductions in the inter-
est of the people, who, of course,
have to pay the freight" 1t is in
teresting in this connection to note
some of the transportation charges
on staple articles: "The transporta-
ton charge on the material in a
pair of shoes made in st. Louis av-
erages one and onequarter cent. The
transportation charge, to place that
pair in the hands of the consumer
in any part of the United States is
about equal to the postage on an or
binary letter. An ordinary bed that
retails at st. Louis at So, for exam
pie, will have paid the railroad
.about 40 cents. From ten pounds of
nails made in Pittsburg the railroad
VIII have obtained trifie over two
cents, and from ten pounds of wire

will be three, a judge being elected
