ted by a Minneapolis Party.
The Killdall-Fish company automo.
bile party. en- route from Minneapolis
to Spokane. was held up at Williston
BY the arrest of Philip Ekberg. the
chauffeur, by Chief of Police Davidson.
who charged that EAberg had exceed
ed the speed limit aud had endangered
life and public health.
The accused was taken before M. H.
Aaen, a substitute justice, where the
police chief was unable to say what
the autos speed amounted to, and tho
case was dismissed.
Then another warrant was secured
from Squire B. Poe" and he dis
missed the accused because the war
rant had not received the states at
torney's O. K. as required by law.
In each Of these proceedings Chief
Davidson acted as his own counsel.
and nearly the entire citizenship Of
Wil!iston was lined w for the defense.
Banker Will Davidson signed the
necessary bonds until this time, and
the party made ready to start west at
| once.
Chief Davidson then secured the
! third warrant, this time with the
states attorneys o. X, but Ekberg
was not found. Joseph Killdall, NJ.

Montana line, twenty miles away. Elk

Chief Davidson was indignant and
hurried by train to Buford on the state
line, where he waited for the Kill

reached Mr.. Kildall gave Ekberg his
Panama hat and took the chauffeur's
leather cap, and then started around
the town on foot. 'rhe chiefs posse
saw the wayfarer and allowed Ekberg
and the machine to fly through Buford
without interruption.
The chief hurried up to the pedes-

Then he saw it was Killdall. The lat.

THE POLITE Poems.
And the Engineer Who Knew Little
Spanish and Tried to Boss Them.

An engineer who came up while
ago from Mexico told a story about
q man in his line who had rather
limited knowledge Of Spanish. but
fancied that by combining what he
knew and some English he could
make the poems employed on the rail-
way understand.
In his vocabulary were these
words: Para, stop; ustedes hombles,
you men; piedras. stones. and via.
road. One day this engineer was
walking up the track and saw lot of
poems standing around doing nothing
So he stopped and said:
"Ustedes hombres. why are you
standing around idle: Take those
piedras and throw them in the mid
die of the via"
The always polite Mex,cans smiled
and said. "Si. senor," and the engi-
neer marched away. Then they de.
bated what re meant and decided he
wanted the stones thrown on the 9TH
er side Of tie track They started to
do that and back came the engineer.
Para. ustedes hombres, para! Did
not ustedes ho:nbres hear what
said: Did not tell usted,.s hombres
to take tho:a piedras and throw them
in the mide;a of the via: Why don't
you do wha:: said?"
And he marched away as the poems
said suayel:', Isl. senior"
They had another consultation and
decided that what he wanted was to
have the p!edras thrown :!ear across
the treck in the other objection. So
they began ag.in, tossing the stones
back again. Tho engineer came rush
ing back, shout'i,:
para! Para! What is i've matter
with ustedes homb,cs: 10 ustedes
hombres take me for foo;:.'
He paused and behaving that he
had come to the end OF his speech the
poems bowed gravely and said: Isl.
senor."

The Admission branch of tie Dundas
family possessss curious Venetian
goblet, and, Ike the famous luck" of
Eden Hall, they believe that their
prosperity depends upon its preserva-
ton. It was given by his mother to
Sir James Dundas in the reign of
Queen Mary. with an injunction to
preserve it carefully or misfortunes
would atteri the family. 1t once had
a miraculous escape from destruction,
for q very eccentric peeress, who for
some unknown reason owed the fam.
lily a grudge. concealing her sinister
intentions, asked to be allowed to see
it, and when it was handed to her she
deliberately threw 1t on the ground.
Every one present held his breath, ex-
pectiEg to see it shtyer-d into frag-
ments, but strange to say it did not
break, and it is still preserved intact.

CHASTITY FIND IN MOUSE RIVER.
Head and Arms Of Unknown Man
MiSsinu,


Was the 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, q
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 10 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 1t Is therefore believed that the
dead man may have been stranger
to these parts. An Investigation WIN
be made, however. with view to es.
tablishing the identity of the man.

THE BLIND SWIM srRA,o4r.
Keep Course With Marvellous Direct.
mess, Guided by Sound.


Just as some professional singers
with magnificent voices never learn to
sing in perfect tune. so do the train
ers of really fine swimmers often find
1t Impossible that men with every
quality for racing otherwise can be
made or taught to swim even in an
approximately straight line.
Many a splendid swimmer is beaten
on this account. for his inveterate
habit of getting of his course natural
ly gives him a roundabout journey.
But the remarkable fact remains that
blind swimmers-of whom there are
in this country considerable nuEl-
Der in connection with various insti-
tutions for persons so afflicted-uni-
versally and without exception swim
with marvellous directness; indeed. in
as perfectly straight a line as is hu-
manly possible. even when the dis.
, lance covered is very considerable.
So much is this the case that
DR.. Campbell of the College for the
Blind at UPPER Norwood, who particu-
larry interest; himself in the physical
education of the blind and has no.
ticed this curious fact, recommends
that swimmers who persistently foul
each other on any course Shout! prac-
, tice experimentally when biindfolded.
Blind swimmers can, it appears, on
hearing a noise in any given direction
not only swim absolutely straight to
the c::i..t whence the noise proceeds.
but wien left to themselves their
steering is inst as accurate

Woodsman's Fight Wi:h Wolves.
Armed only with an az Joseph Frost
of Kenroa had a terrible experience
with two timber wolves last week
near Garwood. He was returning
from the bush, where he had been
cutting wood. when two large wolves
sprang at him.
Using his AK freely he managed
to keep the animals at bay for few
moments, but when the battle seemed
hopeless Canadian Pacific Railroad
freight train passed and the animals
ran into the bush. Torn clothes and
a bloody ak showed the severe ex-
perience he had been through. Owing
to a scarcity of rabbits the wolves
this winter are very bold and appear
more numerous than for several years
past.

But now there's some things which
your stomach won't digest. Your
stomach absolutely refuses to accom-.
modate you when you eat certain
food-so you have been forced by your
stomach to eat food which YOU de.

that you would have really enjoyed.
There is now a way to eat any
thing you like, if you will let
Kodol digest it.
Kodol will do this, too. It won't
talk back or command, but will 90

all the food you eat. Kodol Wilt let

The land that has been in roots and

farmed the second year the same as If
it had been summer fallowed. This
would give near 100 acres the second

land AN be cropped every year. or at

grown successfully. After the first
year. however. all root crops. peas and
