was not "a candidate for the republican
nomination for Congress from the Eighth
district aud would not acceptit II tender
ed him by acclamstion at the convention
to be held in this city on Monday. His
attention at present he said was en
crossed in business and this was about
ali he could attend to. The nomination,
it is thought, will be off,red to ex-Post-
master Crupptr, of this city, and in the
event of his refusal to accept, it will
probably be rendered to Mr.. j. A. Egg
born, OF Culpeper, father of Mis-. Arm
i.tssd Eggborn, of this city. AS no one
seems to be inclined to make the race II
would be a compliment TO Mr.. Frank T.
Evans, councilman from the Fourth
ward, who was a candidate for the legis'
lature lat fell, If the party would honol
him. 1t is an empty honor, to say the
lestt, as the csndidat', whoever he may
be, is doomed to certain defeat.

VALUABLE ACQUISITION
of Its Delegation in Congress Gets
Village.

Bismarck Tribune: The most de-
sirable ancient Indian site has been
secured for the State Historical so
ciety of North Dakota, by land grants
obtained from the United States gov
ernment for the purpose of exchang-
ing these lands granted for the lands
of private owners, on which that In
dian village was located.
The site is located north of the old
Fort Lincoln site. It Is the second
Mandan Indian village found, (aban-
doned twenty years before their expe-
dition) by Lewis & Ozark who had
their fourth camp in North Dakota, on
knoll directly south Of the village
site. The village is in a very good
state Of preservation, and is rich in
an abundance of deposits containing
valuable relics of a zrne previous to
their contact with white people, ex
cept very few like the De la yeren-
drye brothers and maybe few of th..
French trappers.
e. r. Steinbrueck was the father OF
the idea to secure this valuable vii
Iage site, and thought ana act Is one
with him. He went right 10 work to
catch hold OF good thing before it
was too late. Vice President Jewell
OF bismarck was the first to endorse
Mr.. Steinbrueck's letter TO Benator
Hansbrough in regard to the land
grant desired, and the i've trustees
of the society followed. Governor

SENSATIONAL CASE
DEVELOPS At MINOT

Minot, N. D., Oct. IA young girl
whose home is at Union, N. DIS died
at Minot hotel this morning under
suspicious circumstances, and there is
little doubt but that death resulted
from criminal operation. The girl
came to Minot Saturday with a young
man and the two had adjoining rooms.
It IL evident that the young man dis
covered that the girl could not live
and he left the hotel last night and up
to the time Of going to press, the po-
lice have been unable to locate him.
The girls parents have been noti-
fed and wire from them states
that they will arrive in the city to-
night. The remains Of the young
girl are at Rowan's undertaking par
lors, where they are being held sub
ject to the order Of the coroner. An
inquest and post mortem will prob
ably be held tomorrow. Sensational
developments are looked for in con-
nection with the case. The name Of
the young lady Is withheld for obvious
reasons.

Der OF prominent lodge women from

ture of the afternoon work was the
initiation of a large class Of candi-
datess. The floor work was done by
the Devils Lake team and was beauti-
fully demonstrated, showing that the
team was well posted in this atTac-
tive part Of lodge work. Papers were
given by Mrs. Powell Of Devils Lake,
Mrs. Ruby Roberts of Cando, Mrs.
Mae Ruhberg of Devils Lake and one
from the Kenmare lodge. One Of the
helpful parts of the convention was the
opening of the question box and the
answering Of queries which are often
met with in lodge work.
The burial service was also on the
afternoon programme. 1t was exempli-
fed by Gertrude Engseth, Villa Jones,
Katherine Barrett, Mary Lytle, all
Of Minot This evening an entertain
ment and banquet will be rendered
