SOLDIERS CLASH WITH POLICE.
The Celebrating Warriors Take
Charge Of Capital City.

Policeman Ely of Bismarck had
quite an interesting time one night
recently with band of soldiers out
for good time. The soldiers were
making good deal of racket. and
when cautioned about it did not take
kindly to the advice. and proceeded
on their old style Of procedure with
the result that an arrest was made.
At this the rest Of the men protested
and said their comrade should not be
run in, and as result there were
several sore heads caused by the nim-
BILE action of the officers club. and
three of the men were placed in Jail
after Deputy Sheriff Mcdonald came
TO the assistance of the policeman.
About this time a provost guard ar
rived from the post and drove the sol
diers back to quarters and succeeded
in getting freed the men in Jail on
promise. of furnishing them by mill
tary records.

MANpAN GIRL MADE ESCAPE.
Ran Away From the crittenden
Home.

Home.
About month ago young girl
about sixteen years of age, Mary AM
undson by name. was sent from Man.
dan to the Crittenden home in Bis
marck. supposedly in delicate con-
dition. 1t now transpires, according
to the doctors, she is not in any such
shape.
One morning last week she ran
away from the home and went to the
house of Sheriff McGillis. The matron
of the home was communicated with.
She came to the sheriff's home and
tried to induce the girl to return with
her. This she would not do but per.
sisted in staying where she was.
She was taken to Mandan and turn.
ed over to the authorities at that
place.
1t is thought that the girl is not
bright. She had been living with an
aunt about thirty-five miles south of
Mandan. Her father lives with her
step-mother in Connecticut, and about
4 year ago the girl came to North Da-
kota 10 live.

ALUMNI ASSOCIATION.

State University to Organize.

Graduates and Former StuoentS OF
state University to Organize.
There is strong probability of a
North Dakota Alumni association, the
organization to include not only grad
yates, but also former students.
There arc at least fifteen in Minot
who are eligible and the formation of
such club would do much to keep
up the college spirit. Prof. Koch. who
gave a reading in Minot week ago,
aroused the enthusiasm in the plan
and told of the other towns around
Minot where clubs had been formed.
Towner has fiourishing one. as has
Grand Forks and Fargo. Mr.. Nestos
is interested in the organization of
the club in Minot and is endeavoring
to get the names of all former
students. The organization will prob
ably be completed in short time.

MAY HAVE BEEN MURDERED.
Authorities investigating Death Of q
Former Minot Girl.


Miss May Harris. WHO formerly
lived in Minot and who died at Cul.
bertson, Mont, March II, may nave
been murdered according to the orin.
ion of the Montana authorities. who
have ordered her body eXhumed an,
postmortem held. One of the i'm
portant witnesses is Miss Lillian
Webster, who was present at the time
OF her death and who is now in Minot
Miss Webster was examined by the
authorities, and her testimony is prac.
tically as follows:
She was with Miss Harris at Cul
bertson for about three weeks before
the death. A man by the name OF Joe
Manning was constant companion
of the deceased, and the day previous
to her death had gotte:: into Il seri-
GUS alteration with her. bruising her
body and nearly choking her. Among
other blows was one struck back of
her head, which the doctors now
claim caused clot of blood to form
which eventually led to her death.
Miss Webster testified that Miss Har.
ris was unable to get up. and that
while she was addicted to the use OF
morphine it was not from an over
dose that she died. Manning is at
present serving two years sentence
in the penitentiary at Deer Lodge for
an assault committed two years ago.

w,LL,sToN HAS EXTRA MAYOR.
Two Men Claim to Be Elected to the
Office.

A rather peculiar condition exists
in Williston at present, inasmuch as
there are two men who claim to be
entitled to the Office of mayor. These
two Ven are Charles Baldwin and
Mayor Wegley. both Of whom claim to
be duly elected to serve in the capac-
ity of mayor during the coming year.
The matter will come to head at
the time of taking Office this week, as
it is believed that at that time the
first step will be taken to place Mr..
Baldwin in as mayor and his claims
will be vigorously opposed by the
present chief executive.
At the municipal election 33 votes
were cast for the position of mayor
in the various wards of the city. That
such voting was in progress was I'M
known except to the few who cast
such ballots. When the polls closed
and the counting of the votes COM
menced, attorneys appeared before
the various boards asking that the
votes be counted or refused in order
that some record might be made of it.
Following a short discussion the
votes were counted and Mr.. Baldwin
was given thirty-three votes for the
position of mayor The city canvass
ing board at it's session threw the
votes out. refusing to count them.
The present city executive was
elected to the position a, year since
for a period OF two years. He claims
that there was no call for the election
of mayor at this time. The sup
ro:ters OF Mr.. Baldwin make the
claim that the city should elect the
mayor this year according to the law.
and will make fight along this line.
Attorneys A. J. Dwyer and Beese &
Greer represent Charles Baldwin,
while it is understood that Mayor
Weg.ey has also secured counsel.

Losses of more than 100000 it is

spectators who last spring took the
chances on blossoming trees and
bought UP the ungrown fruit in New
York State and part of Canada.
They now have on their hands g.
100000 barrels, which they are daily
trying to unload. and it looks as
though before the season closed there
would be a windfall for the piebakers.
The holders must get rid of the supply
at once, and the buyers are holding

One of the favorite forms of gam.
bling up the state is buying the future
apple crop. Some Of the farmers ac-
quire the orchards of the neighbor-
hood. and the state in the spring is
traversed by brokers and spectators
who look over the orchards and offer
lump sums for the output, or agrees
to take the fruit at SO much barrel.
1t is the custom TO go long and
short on the apple market, just as 1t
is OIL stocks. and the game is played
with as much energy as though the
spectators were on the curb.

was eight years old. when her foster
parent died. The little girl was then
taken back to her real mother who
had separated from her husband and
remarked. Her life was anything but
a happy one and she finally left. in
tent upon finding her father. When
old enough she learned the BARRIERS
trade as better means of coming in
contact with those who could give her
information regarding her parent.
Letters were written to all of the
cities that she remembered but with
no result. Several visits were made
to Wisconsin but no knowledge could
be gained and it was not until few
weeks ago that she found a clue.
which. when followed up. rejoined a
separated family. A letter to the 20.
lice department of Manitowoc found
cousin of Mr.. Wickert and through
him the missing man was located at
