CARROLL HEARING IS
CONTINUED TO
FRIDAY
Testimony of Girl in Abduction
Trial Brought About the
Rape Charge

Joe Carroll, who was arrested sew
eral days ago on the charge of rape
as result of the testimony of Lu-
cile Pierce in a former trial in which
Carroll was charged with abduction,
was today brought before Judge Nc
Loughlin and his case continued I'M
til October at 10 a. m. His bond
was fixed at $500 which he was unable
to furnish so was committed to the
county Jail.
Carroll was arrested at Fargo for
the abduction of Lucille Pierce, whom
he brought to Grand Forks. Inves-
tigation was made by the police Off
GERS here after inquiries made by the
girls parents and she was found, but
Carroll had skipped out. The girl
was sent back to Fargo and later
Carroll returned to Fargo and was
arrested on the charge.
There was not enough evidence to
convict him of the crime and he was
discharged. In the testimony of the
girl, however, in the trial at Fargo
for abduction, the other crime was
brought to light and after Carroll had
laid around Fargo for a week he was
arrested on the charge Of rape.

CLAIMS he was ROBBED
Man Named Anderson Says Pair Of
Robbers P0unced on Him-Made
Fight Against Them.

a fellow named Anderson made
complaint to the police about mid
night claiming that he had been held
up and robbed of $12 and gold
watch. The police have made an In
vestigation Of the affair but put very
little stock in the story told by An
derson.
Anderson says the holdup and rob-
berry occurred near the Hall hotel on
South Third street. claiming that two
men pounced on him, both wearing
masks and armed with revolver. He
claims to have grasped the revolver
and that in the struggle it was dis
charged. Anderson then received a
blow on the jaw and says the men
went through his pockets and relieved
him Of his valuables. There was some
kind Of a row on the street shortly
before midnight last night, but those
who heard it are not of the opinion
that It was a case of robbery,

has associated with the nations ablest
men. their senators and representa-
tives, and all that time she has been
fighting for temperance so that there
are none better versed on its needs
and virtues than she. She is fluent
and exceedingly impressive speaker
and proves just as interesting. if not
more so, to the men as to the women.
A special invitation is extended the
men to attend this temperance rally
and whether prohibitionists or not,
Mrs. Ellis has something important
to say to them.
This is the first temperance rally
held in this city for some time and
that it will be success is already
assured by the members of the W. c.
I. U. There will be no admission to-
morrow evening but collection will
be taken up. When Mrs Ellis spoke
at Minot collection of $50 was
donated toward the temperance cause.

FLOODS IN THE SOUTH.
Augusta Is Paying the Penalty Of
FrpShts.

Augusta. Ca, Sept. 29-Though the
flood which filled the streets of Au-
gusta several weeks ago has long
since subsidized, the city is still expert
encing great inconvenience because of
the resulting conditions.
Not drop of water has been pump
ed into the city reservoir since the
flood and none can be sent through
the pumping stations for some days
to come.
Four fire engines have been placed
at points along the Savannah river
and these are throwing water direct
ly into the city mains. This pressure
is sufficient to send water through
faucets on first stories of building
and to rush canitary contrivances up
to this level but not above. This wa
ter is not used for any other purpose,
the president of the board of health
having issued warning against its
use for drinking or cooking purposes.
All drinking water is purchased from
private concerns or supplied by the
city or street railway company. The
railway company owns several
springs about the city and from these
brings a supply into Augusta and
gives it away to those in need.

held in Grand Forks Wednesday even
Ing. Mrs. Margaret Dye Ellis, the
world famed leader of the Women's
Christian Temperance Union of New

evening from Devils Lake and tomor-
row evening beginning at o'clock
she will speak at the Baptist church.
1t was first announced that she would
speak at the library but investigation
showed that there would be far too
many temperance enthusiasts to &C.
commodate there so a temperance
rally was decided upon and will be
held at the church instead.
Mrs. Ellis is national superintend-

STREET CARNIVAL
DAMPENED By
WEATHER
Only Half a Show on Streets
Conditions Impossible to
Overcome

The merchants street carnival
which has been advertised extensively
the past couple of months. has failed
to make good as result Of the
weather mans actions in doping out
some very poor weather. The various
shows along DeMers avenue and
Fourth street were opened last even
ing but the crowds were very small
the cold weather keeping people of
the streets. Today the snow and rain
has had it's effect on the carnival
streets, leaving them in muddy con-
dition.
The shows will be opened tonight
however, and the people who visit the
carnival place are certain to receive
their moneys worth of entertainment
The shows are said to be of a very
high order throughout and we'll wor-
thy Of patronage.
The carnival had been looked for
ward to with more or less interest
throughout this section of the state
and the fact that the weather has re-
suited in only half the show being
opened is rather disappointing. A
good carnival had been arranged for
but circumstances such have been met
with in this case are indeed hard to
overcome.
Two OF the shows scheduled for the
carnival arrived in the city last even
ing but the owner refused to pitch the
tents because of the cold weather
conditions.

This morning Contractor Paddy Nc

filed by 20 others. and in the event
Of Doctor MacFayden's appointment
to the position Of general manager. il

While there have been no attacks
upon the cars or other property of the

suffering from the blight Of the strike
Business driven away by the boycott

Is still a hesitancy on the part of many
persons to ride so that trade that
formerly went to the Chester stores
is now turned TO Wilmington and
Philadelphia.
