Henry Truelson's little daughter,
Olivette, while attending Miss. Ethel
Doyle's school north Of town, was acci-
dentally struck by a stone while playing
last Friday afternoon. Two teeth were
knocked out and her lip badly cut.
Bro. Nelson of Medora announces that
he is willing to serve the people Of Bill
ihngs county as clerk of the district court.
Il is also understood, on good authority,
that I: A. Cahill has designs on the same
Office. The latter gentleman would be
a representative from the east side Of the
county.
Mrs. John Crawford died January 26, at
the Crawford home in this town. Mrs.
Crawford, who was about ! years old,
came with her husband from: Casselton
last month and they hoped the change.
would benefit her health but she con.
tinued to grow worse until tie end Came
last Sunday. Nj. Crawford had rented
ahouse here and intended t move. to his
homestead in the spring. Mr.. Crawford
wishes to thank the people Of Belfeld
and vicinity for the many .Einndnesses:
shown the family and for the assistance
given at the time of his bereavement.
The funeral was held Monday with Rev.
OF. just of Dickinson as officiating
clergyman. Mrs. Crawford left a hus-
bandsand three children to mourn her
loss.
An exchange. which is far enough
awaysto be safe, started a Mary Ann
problem thus: In the United States the
Mexican dollar has exchange value Of
ninety cents, in Mexico the American
silver dollar has the; same value. On the:
frontier of the United States, where.
Texas joins Mexico, there are two sa-
looms. man buys 4 ten-cent drink Of
whiskey at.the American saloon and pays.
for it with an American dollar, receiving
= Mexican dollar a change. With this
he crosses the border, goes into the Mex
lean saloon forsa ten-cent drink and re-
ceives n sAmerican dollar, as exchange.
Il IS evident that the limit of his purchas.
ing power IS the length Of time that he.
can navigate between the two saloons.
He finally wakesp up with abad headache,
and the Americana dollar with which he
started and says 70 himself, "Who paid
fol. the whiskey1"
