CAUGHT Fish IN
WALDORF LOBBY
WHILE UNDER THE INFLUENCE
OF AN AMATEUR HYPNoTlsT,
BELL BOY PERFORMS MANY
STUNTS FOR THE ENTERTAIN-
MENT OF WAL noRF GUESTS.

The guests at the Waldorf hotel
were given an fmpromptu entertain
ment in the lobby of that hostelry last
night by l.. S. Stifft. a we'll known
travelling man, who exhibited his hyp-
motto powers on several Of the bell
boys. Mr.. stint is hypnotist OF
such clevernessv that he is raised from
the class of amateurs and large
crowd witnessed his exhibition last
night.
One of the bell boys known popu-
larly around the hotel as Cotton"
was the, best, subject and he furnished
no end of amusement to 1.-THE. guests
in, the lobby of the hotel. The boy is
not musician, but with broom as
the accompanying instrument and at
the direction of Mr.. Stiff, he exhibited
great powers as a ocalist In the rem
dition of Way Down Upon the Swan
nee River, and HarrIgan. He also
demonstrated the fact that he was a
champion ike Walton by catching
numerous bass from the tiled floor OF
the lobby, using the broom as a .fishs
ing rod. The hypnotist then sudden
ly changed the lake to a strawberry
patch and the lad spent much time
picking the delicious fruit and putting
them in his pockets. While still UNI
der the hypnotic influence he was di-
rected to pass his hat and when the
lad was brought to his normal senses
he found that 1t contained over s..
I-e at first thought. that this money
was sham but on investigating It
this morning found that it was the
real article from Uncle Sans mint.
Those who witnessed the perform
ance said that 1t exceeded in clever
ness some OF the vaudeville perform
ances of hypnotism.

ROBBERY SATURDAY
THREE MEN HELD UP AND ROB-
BED By THREE NEGROES ON
THE souTH BRIDGE or FARGO
NEGROES HAVE THREE GUNS
AND WE'RE VERY BOLD.

Three laborers from Henning, Mimi,
who came to Fargo Saturday with
the intention Of shipping west to
work for the winter were held up and
robbed on Saturday night by three ne
gro desperadoes who accomplished one
of the most daring hold ups ever
pulled of In the northwest
Ole Iverson and two companions
from Henning arrived in Fargo on a
late train Saturday and visited the
employment agencies with the inten-s
ton of shipping west but finding they
could not secure employment just at
this time they had decided that they
would return to Henning and go to
work IN the woods for the winter
The three men then went over to
Moorhead where they had lust one
round OF drinks which were provided
by Iverson who broke $40 bill to
pay for the drinks, spending As cents
The men then started back to Fargo
and were nearing the Fargo side of
the river when three negroes stepped
in~front OF them, two of them armed
one with two revolvers and the other
with one, and demanded that the
white men throw up their hands This
they FASTENED to do and then the
third negro went through their peck
cts, gettinS $19.55 from Iverson, IS
from one companion and So from the
third man.
Not content with getting the money
the negroes played safe by ordering
the three victims Of the robbery to
turn about and go back 10 Moorhead
and threatenpd to shoot fo ki1l ~
any OF the trio came back to Fargo
that night. The hold up artists then
waited until their victims had almost
reach the Moorhead side of the
bridge before they skunk away into
the darkness. ~ ~
Iverson and his companions were
so disguised with being held up in
such bold manner by negroes that
they did not report the matter to the
police but came back to this side, Sc
cured their belongings where they had
more money and took the next train
back to Henning.

In pursuance of the plan to encour-
age the teaching of the use OF the
military rife in educational institu
tons and rifle practice among the stu
dents, the war department has revised
the oredrs governing the allowance Of
small arms ammunition to institutions
at which officers of the army are de-
tailed as instructors. Under the new
regulations $21, 900 has been set aside
for the one hundred such institutions,
to include rifleball cartridges, blank
ammunition, 20 caliber ball cartridges
for gallery practice, and target sup
plies, Issues will be made on requisi-
tions certified to by the professors OF
military science and tactics, specify
ing the actual facilities for the gal
lery and range practice, the time al
lotted by the institutions. and the num-
Der of students enrolled in the military
department to whom opportunity is
afforded by the authorities of the in
stitution to participate In gallery or
range practice or both.
The war department specifies the
maximum allowance for each student
at forty rounds of rifle ball cartridges
for each range the total not to exceed
100 rounds per student. When gall
lery practice is held in addition to
range practice, sixty rounds OF :.22
caliber ball cartridges are allowed
per student. Where there Is gallery
practice but no facilities for range
practice, 100 rounds of ~ caliber
are allowed per student. Each insti-
tuition is also allowed ten rounds OF
| rifle blank cartridges. Should such
an institution desire target supplies
they may be obtained from the war
department but only In lieu of cor
responding monetary reduction of the
ammunition allowance for that insti-
tuition.

BUT DISCHARGED
jury BRINGS IN VERDICT OF
! cunTY or ASSAULT AND BAT
/ Terry AND NOT OF ASSAULT AS
cs4ARcED-HARMAN HAS sERV-
/ ED SEVERAL MONTHS.

Guilty Of assault and battery" was
the peculiar verdict that was brought
in late Saturday afternoon by the jury
who heard the case Of the state VS..
James Hartman. The reason that the
verdict was peculiar lay in the fact
that Hartman was charged with as
sault with intent to commit rape, an
offense which carries with 1t a heavy
state prison sentence, while assault
and battery is merely county Jail Of
Tense with a maximum sentence of
one year. ~.
Judge Pollock discharged the pri-
soner stating that he had already
served sufficient time in the county
taiI while awaiting trial to constitute
punishment for assault and battery.

LID SNAPS down
ON AUTO SPEEDERS
WARRANTS ARE OUT FOR FROM
TEN TO FIFTEEN or REsT
KNOWN, AND tlIeHLY Respect
ED OWNERS in FARGc--JAiL
SENTENCES POSSIBLE.

There was CONSERVATION i'm the ranks
Of the auto owners of Fargo today
when 1t was learned that the police
held from ten to fifteen warrants for
prominent auto owners OF the city.
each OF whom are charged with VIC.
waiting the speed ordinance andkit is
probable that the general. salutation
between owners of the buzz wagons
before the end of the week will be,
Hello. have you been arrested yet?'
The speed lid was cIapped on so sud
denly and so unexpectedly that many
drivers were caught under the edge
of the rim and there will undoubtedly
be some tall squirming done before
they get safely out of the predica-
ment.
Result Of Popular Demand.
The action on the part Of the city
officials is the result of a persistent
demand which came to the police au-
thorities in the shape of innumerable
complaints about auto drivers. 1t has
been some time since an. arrest for
was made and the auto driv-
ers have been going from bad to
worse until 1t was absolutely dan
gerous for horse owners to use some
of the best drive streets of the city
at all.
The auto driver were not content to
go few miles over the limit but some
of them have gone down Eighth street
with the throttle wide open and the
highest gear whirling the great ma
chimes at the rate Of Atty and sixty
miles an hour.
Plain Clothes Men at Work.
So persistently did the complaints
come that Chief Grant decided. to put
an effectual and complete stop to the
practice and he sent out two plain
clothes men with stop watches and or
ders to time every auto that they saw
during the evening.
The result was a list of names which
included some that viii make the pub
lic,sopeR it's eyes when they are. pub
iished. t,fe S.
These warrants were placed In the
hands OF the officers to serve this aft
ernoon, but as yet no arrests have been
made. They are all authorized by City
Attorney Resser and the names will
not be made public until after the
warrants have been served.
Jail Sentences Possible.
Judge Ryan stated this morning that
If the list contained certain names
the parties would get JAN sentences
without the option of a fine. as can be
done under the provision Of the ordi-
nance.
There are one or. two parties In the
CITY," said Judge Ryan today. who
have been arrested and fined for this
same offense twice before and I have
made this unwritten RUE: The third
| time an offender comes before me on
this charge am going to give him q
straight jail sentence without the op-
| ton of a fine."
| One Woman In the List.
1t was stated this morning that
there was the name Of one woman on
the list but she is charged with vio-
lating the ordinance by not having
the number on her machine as pro-
vided by the ordinance and not for
speeding.
Chief Grant stated today that plain
clothes men with stop watches would
be feature of the police work In
Fargo hereafter.
