brings News of Wreck.

St. Johns, N. F., Sept. 15-Lloyd's agent here has received dispatch from Indian Harbor Labrador saying that the whaling ship Snowdrop, of Dundes, was wrecked September, 1908 in Frobisher Strait. The members of the crew were saved. This message .= presumed here to mean that the Canadian government cruiser Arctic, CaptaIa Bernier, or the steamer Jeanie. Captain Samuel Bartlett, has arrived at Battle Harbor as otherwise there is no reasonable way to account for the receipt of this Information on the Labrador coast.
 An early dispatch from Battle Har- bor sent by a local correspondent said that CommRHder Peary was accom- panied to the North Pole by only one man, an Eskimo. A later dispatch from the same place says that Mat thew Henson. the negro assistant of Commander Peary. together with four Eskimos, accompanied the explorer actually to the pole This apparent disagreement Is thus far unexplained and inquiries have been made for It's elrHidation.

This year the fair went by default at

opportunity. The society was organ

ORIGINAL NEWS OFFICERS AND
sTockHoL DERs '-coME To"|
WHEN THEY READ or PRO-
POSED SALE or PROPERTY
GAME or FREEzEoUT BLOCKED.

That the publication in The Forum
Monday evening OF the notice OF mort
gage foreclosure sale of The News,
disrupted some exceptionally weIl-laid
plans to get control OF that sheet by
a trio and at the same time do away
with the original stockholders and
promoters OF the paper, developed
yesterday, being established beyond
question. 1t Is claimed that not over
three men who have at any time been
identified with the company, knew OF
the proposed sheriff's sale. The mo-
tice was published In The Hunter
Herald OF which probably not more
than a pair of copies reach the city.
When Pres. J. b. Eaton of the ORR
gfnal News Publishing Co., picked UP
The Forum Monday evening he was
astonished when he read of the pro-
posed sale of the sheet which he had
helped to promote. That he, with
other prominent democrats of the
state were to be frozen out, but for
the exposure, was easily apparent
President Eaton at once warmed the
wires to several points in the state
getting in communication with Clark
Kelley of Devils Lake and several
other prominent democrats. Arrange
mems were made to satisfy the judg-
ment which amounted to less than
800 and halt the sale
What, to many democrats appears
exceptionally strange was the fact
that attorneys for The News, were
charged in this case Instead of plac-
ing the case in the hands of the at
torney who has been retained hereto
fore, who is a prominent democrat
and an officer of the original company,
a second, uninterested finn was EN-
ployed. The affair caused more than
little comment yesterday. More de-
velopments are looked for in the mat
ter. which 1t is asserted has not been
closed.

MORE news FROM
MRS. BYRON BOYD
FEDERAL OFFICIALS RECEIVE,
STILL ANOTHER coMMuNlcA-
TON FROM WOMAN WHO lT IS
CLAIMED HAS RELATIVES IN
THIS CITY

North Dakota federal officials, on
their return from Minot. found among
the mail awaiting them here, com
malnbcations from the now famous
Mrs. Byron Boyd, OF Augusta. Me,
whose undated communications in
unad1rsssed envelopes have been
wrangIed over In a series OF letters
during the past several weeks, copies
Of which have been sent to every fed
eral official in the country.
Some realism was added to the sft-
uation this time when 1t Is claimed
that a relative OF the woman is sup
posed to reside in this city. So fa-
the identity Of the person at this
point has not been revealed.
The last bunch of letters sent out
from Augusta, Me, or postmaraxed
there at least, indicates that u. 8.
Dist. Atty. E. w. Sims Of Chicago has
broke into the game. A letter Of the
federal prosecutor. sent to Mrs. Byron
Boyd, states that communication was
received from her and is now being
investigated by a postoffice inspector
as to a complaint registered against
a. DDSNO1l ALhAs AAA SSNA1A4AcdAS4AB Ot& AA1S
the woman wants 1t known that she
has no complaint to ofrer against the
firm.
The communication ends with a
confidential appeal to the spirit by
which that communioation signed e.
w. Sims is backed"
The whole affair b now looked up
on as the product of an over agftated
mind, as 1t Is impossible to derive any
meaning from the queer letters.

HE PRAISES NORTH
DAKOTA FLAX FIBRE
WASHINGTON MAN SPEAKS HIGH.
w OF THE FIBRE VALUE OF
NORTH DAKOTA FLAX STRAW
EXHIBITION TO BE GIVEN IN
FARGO.

The F1ickertaiI Linen Mills Co, re-
Gently sent samples Of fax straw from
the farm of August Ditmer of Lynch
burg, this county, to the Washington
Industrial Co. for treatment. The A.
bre produced from this straw was ex
ce1lent B. F. Hand, president Of the
Washington Industrial Co, In writing
about the treatment Of the straw for
fibre, said:
I'VE are sending you some samples
made from the straw received by ex-
press from you, these samples prove
that fax is flax, even ii it was raised
for seed only. The straw could have
been longer, but hardly could have been
finer in quality IL it had been raised
for fibre alone. We are more than
pleased with the results. The fibre
speaks for itself, and the people who
made the statement that North Dal5o~
Ia could not produce a fibre fax would
do well to go jump into the Red river.
We sincerely congratulate you upon
this result for Ii means you can es-
tablish in your new town a linen in
dustry second to none in the world You
win Understand of course this fibre is
coarser than it would be, If taken from
an especially grown fax fibre. But 1t
demonstrates beyond the possibility Of
doubt, that your ground Is entirely
capable Of producing a thoroughly good
fibre"
The Flicker all Linen Mills Co., will
install this method of extracting fibre
from fax straw. BY 1t better and
cheaper fibre can be produced in three
hours, than can be produced by the
present system OF retting In two
months. @@tE@j- ~
An exhibition Of making hbre by this
method will be given in Fargo in No
vember.

augurated last evening a novel scheme
for calling attention to their Candy
kitchen. Passersby on Broadway last
evening were attracted by a. series of
moving pictures thrown on the Olson
building from machine In the bal
cony OF The Bijou, calling attention
to the fine candles manufactured and
for sale by them.
The pictures attracted q good sized
crowd and will no doubt add to the
popularity of the excellent fresh made
candies for sale at The Bijou Candy
Kitchen every day.
The Younger Brothers, Roman pos
ers, hand balancing and feats Of
strength are the attraction at The

big hit too.

Modesty of a Great Man.

The modesty of great man OF
science is shown in the relations be-
tween Darwin and his publisher, John
Murray. When he sent to his pub
Usher the famous "Origin of Species"
Darwin wrote: ut may be conceit
but I believe the subject will inter-
est the public, and I am sure that
the views are original. II you think
otherwise, I must repeat my reques:
that you will freely reject my work.

"astounded" at the fact that the trade
ordered 1,493 copies before publica-

view. 81 am qu'zzed sSlendidly," he
said. II really believe thet l enjoyed
1t as much as IL l had not been the
unfortunate butt" When he brought
to Mr.. Murray his book on earth

sold within a year, Darwin said: 81
