STRETCHED HEMP,

About a month ago a man by
the name of John Gorgan and
a fellow by the name of Peter
Mathews supposed to be from
st. Paul struck town and
closed a deal whereby they
became the owner OF the Much.
witch stock of goods, which
wac being closed out. Some
new goods were being added
to the stock, and before they
really got things squared
away the building caught FIRE,
which damaged a great deal of
the goods. 1t appears that
Mathews was furnishing the
money and Gorgan the expert
ence, at least Mathews claimed
he had put about $500 in the
business and Gorgan nothing,
and thinking that the amount
of goods purchased was too
small for the amount of money
f u n i 8 h e d, Mathews had
Gorgan arrested for embezzle-
ment and placed in Jail to
await his trial, which was to
be heard last Saturday. On
Thursday, after swearing out
the warrant, Mathews sold the
stock of goods back to Much
vitsch, and on Friday, morning
about 9 a. m. he went to his
room in the Com mercial Hotel,
and was found Saturday morn
ing hanging by his neck to the
bed post. His relatives who
lived in South Dakota, arrived
here Sunday morning and

COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES

COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES
Thursday evening the COM
mencement exercises of the
State Science School were held
in the Wahpeton opera house.
Nineteen young parsons re-
ceived their diplomas from the
various departments. 1t was
an event of triumph for the
institution. The trustees are
to be congratulated in securing
Governor Burke as the orator
of the evening. The weather
was threatening, but never-the-
less the opera house was filled
with the friends of the school.
The speaker chose for his
subject "Abraham Lincoln.
1t was an eulogy and study of
the character of that great
president, full of fine Thought
and replete with rhetoric. The
audience was immensely
pleased with his address.
President Burch told the
public of the school and of the
changes in the courses for next
year and the new work to be
taken up. The public has
been more or less inquisitive
as to the plans for next year,
and the remarks of the presi-
dent of the institution were
timely, interesting and entire
ly satisfactory.

where he was introduced to
the public by Mr.. Wallace.
About $50 voters were present
when Mr.. Forkner, president
of the club, requested the
governor to address them up
on request of large number
of those present. Although no
part of the program, the
governor spoke for a half hour
in a very entertaining and in
structive manner. Judge AL
len adjourned the district court
and with the jury was present.
The faculty gave a banquet
at $50 in the evening to the
Governor and the trustee
board. It is reported to be a
very elaborate affair and great
~ enjoyed by all.
To some particularly close
friends the governor expressed
himself as surprised at the pro-
gress made by the school. He
also thinks Wahpeton has an
army of boosters.
That is all right, Governor,
