Carl Volkman, Jr., was at work with

two older horses. The horses started
to run away, and in some manner Mr..

When assistance reached him, Mr..

CHASTITY FIND IN MOUSE RIVER
Head and Arms of Unknown Man
MISSING.


Was tho man taken from the Mouse
river last week at Minot murdered?
While walking along the river bank
W. H. Hatton OF Seattle, Wash, and
Chas. Hemming of Youngstown, Ohio
saw human foot sticking out of the
water, and on further investigation
the body of man with both arms. a
foot and the head missing was brought
to view. Coroner Larson was imme.
diately notified by the men making
the find. and going to the scene the
body was brought to the city and
taken to the morgue at Weageant's un.
dertaking rooms. From all appear.
ances the body had been in the water
for some time. and as the head is
missing 1t may be almost impossible
to Identify the unfortunate man. Sher.
III Lee says that there has been no
one reported missing for some time.
and it is therefore believed that the
dead man may have been a stranger
to these parts. An Investigation will
be made, however, with view to es.
tablishing the identity of the man.

USES WATER TO cAa.srsN BOAT

Prohibition Nominee for President 10
Master Of Ceremonies At uismarek.
e. w. Chain, Prohibition candidate
for the presidency, last week marked
what may be a new era in river trans.
portation on the Missouri from Bis
marck. by christening the Missouri
river steamer Deapolis, owned by Bis.
marck people and intended for service
In the transportation of freight north
and south from Bismarck.
The invitation to christen the new
steamer was extended by wire to Mr..
Chain on his way to Bismarck, and
he accepted 1t promptly, when IT was
understood that nothing was to be
used in the christening but Missouri
river water in its unauthorized state.
The wharves are about two miles
from Bismarck, and Mr.. Chain and
party of citizens made the trip in car
riages after brief open-air address
had been made by Mr.. Chain to resi-
dents Of the city upon his arrival. The
christening Of the Deapolis was dis.
posed of propitiously.
The growth of the state and the in
crease in the number of towns along
the river has given new impetus to
river traffic. Back in the late seven
ties there were thirty or forty steam.
ers plying in and out of Bismarck.
The opportunities for river transporta-
tion are again being developed and
1t is expected in few years the water
christened Deapolis will be the flag.
ship of large commercial fleet.

Kodol For Dyspepsia
Will Relieve You Almost instantly.

Kodol supplies the same digestive
Juices that are found in . healthy
stomach. Being . liquid, it starts
digestion at once.
Kodol not only digests your food,
but helps you enjoy every mouthful
you eat.
You need . sufficient amount Of
good, wholesome food to maintain
strength and health.
But, this food must be digested
thoroughly, otherwise the pains of
indigestion and dyspepsia are the
result.
When your stomach cannot do its
work properly, take something to
help your stomach. Kodol is the
only thing that will give the stom-
ach complete rest.
Why? Because Kodol does the
same work as strong stomach, and
does it in . natural way.
