STOMACH Of GIRL
BROUGHT To
THE CITY
Analysis of Contents to Be
Made-Mrs. Wright is
Charged With Murder.

Mrs. Mary Wright was arrested in
Devils Lake Friday night at about 10
o'clock at the orders of States Attor-
ney Sever Serumgaard on charge of
the murder of Babe" Wright, the
16-year-old girl who was supposed to
have committed suicide at Derrick
Wednesday morning. She has been
placed in the Ramsey county jail to
await a preliminary examination and
the result of the analysis of the
stomach of the deceased girl, which
was brought to Grand Forks this
morning for that purpose.
The arrest of Mrs. Wright has
created somewhat of sensation as in
the community 1t was she who first
reported the death of the girl, claim
ing that she had found her lying on
the bed dead Wednesday morning
with an empty carbolic acid bottle
at her side. The coroner held an In
quest. and the jury returned a YER
dict of suicide, but this was not salts
factory to the authorities and further
investigation was made with the re-
suit that the arrest of Mrs. Wright
took place.
1t is thought that Mrs. Wright ad-
ministered quantity of poison to the
girl while she slept, as there is no
evidence Of any struggle. 1t is
claimed that the two have not been
getting along very we'll together, and
that Babe" Wright had about de-
cided to leave. She was an adopted
daughter of Mrs. Wright.

market DAY FOR GRAND FORKS IS
NOW ASSURED STREET CARNIVAL ALSO
September 20 to October Dat Is for Latter Event and Mar
Kes Day Will Be 1naugurated During that Week
Great Benefit to All Concerned

A weekly market day for the city
OF Grand Forks is one Of the proba-
oilities for the city within the
very near future, and If plans now
under consideration are carried out
as anticipated. the first of these will
be held some day during the brig

Der 8. Kittson avenue, between the
electric light plant and Fourth street
Is the site practically determined
upon as market street. At meeting
early next week of the Commercial
club retail committee, final arrange
ments for the holding of the market
day will be taken up and very likely
adopted.
The street carnival proposition,
which has been under consideration
for some time past, has about ma
tured, and the week of September 20
to October 3 has been settled upon
az being the best for this gala event.
The inauguration of the market day
system during that week is looked
upon with great deal Of favor and
there is little doubt but what it will
be carried out. Lewis Hart is work
ing in conjunction with the CONNER
cial club committee. and every effort
Is being made to push matters to a
satisfactory close whereby the farm
ers, business men and citizens may
receive the benefit derived from the
holding of market days.
A regular auctioneer will be on the
market street during certain hours of
each day and will auction of all
goods offered, small fee to be
charged for the services. A regular
schedule of fees will be arranged. On

the first day 1t has been practically
decided to charge no fees.
The benefits of a market day are
manifold, both to the farmer and the
business men as we'll as to the non,e-
keepers. The farmer brings his load
of produce to the city and sells it
direct to the consumer. receiving
cash. He may then make his pur-
chases at the different stores or re-
turn home with his cash, as he sees
At. The homekeeper has the benefit
of securing fresh garden stuff or other
produce offered, and will have a great
variety from which to select. -
Street Carnival.
The street carnival promises to be
a big thing for the city. A great deal
Of interest has been shown in the
event by the business people of the
city, who seem heartily in favor of
It. There will be regular carnival
in, tho various streets of the city, with
fun for young and old from morning
till late night. Grand Forks has in
the past had its street carnivals which
have proved to be immensely success
full, and the one this year should be
just az good II not better than any
yet attempted.
1t will take place after the thresh-
ing operations are concluded, and
at time when the farmers are ready
to take short rest from their work
At that season Of the year there are
also great many purchases to be
made, and the farmers can come to
the city and buy their supplies, having
the carnival attraction to furnish
amusement during their stay here.

people and they are the ones who
want great army and a mighty navy.
There is a class in every country

they are forever working to perpetu-

have no desire for war. We have
nothing against the producers Of

Why should we wish to fight the
German who lives in Germany while
we take him into our friendship the

toll at their trades across the big
water as they are when they live in

while they live over there we are
protected against their competition
to some extent and should love them
more than when they come here and
work for less wages, or produce
wealth at less price. We have
nothing against the Japanese who
stays at home, and we do not want

Senator Hale is right. Surely
the producers of America have no
desire for war. Nor do they wish to
support a useless army in state or
nation. Only favored few who hold
commissions as officers get the good
things. while the adventurous youth
who is drawn from some useful &C.
