lodged from her throat this piece of
tooth which had been lodged there
many years before If this is the cause
of her trouble her recovery is certain.

DEPUTY RETURNS
FROM MOOSEJAW
Where He Appeared as Witness for the
Prosecution in Trial of H0rse-Thief
Frank Duff, Who Was found Guilty
and Gets Five Years on Each
of the Two Charges.

Deputy Sheriff Dick Steinhoffer stopp-
ed off in Bowbells between trains on
Thursday of last week, on his return to
Minot from Moosejaw, Can., where he
appeared as witness for the prosecu-
ton in the trial of Frank Duff, alias
Barr, in whose capture he played so
conspicuous part some weeks ago at
Minot, with the stolen property in his
possession.
Dick informed The Tribune that while
he remained in Moosejaw the prisoner
had been convicted on two counts and
he was yet to be tried on third charge,
when he would receive sentence for all
three, the terms to run concurrently.
Dick, to whom alone was due the
capture of this bad man, receives re-
ward of 5000 offered by the government
for his capture, and was informed by
the authorities at Moosejaw last We'd
nesday that a draft for the amount
would soon be mailed to him to Minot
DUFF BREAKS JAIL.
A Moosejaw special Of the 4th inst. to
the Minot Reporter says: Frank Duff,
alias Barr, the horse thief who was
captured by Deputy Sheriff Dick Stein
hotter of Ward county, N. D., made a
deliberate attempt to escape last night.
He obtained in some way cell door
lever that had been broken off one of
the cell doors here some time ago. With
this he pried open the paddock on his
cell door and when he thought that
both members of the night guard were
away, stole out of his cell in his stocking
feet, carrying his slicker over his arm
and the lever in his left hand. The
weapon was about foot long and of
steel. One Of the night men was fort
unately standing near the front door of
the city hall and Immediately grappled
with Duff. Duff pulled away and struck
murderous blow at him with the lever,
the force of which was broken by the
guards hat. In the scuff1e which en-
sued the guard secured the upper hand
of Duff and he was soon replaced in his
cell. Since that time he has been taken
to court in shackles accompanied by
heavy guards.
Duff got two terms of five years each
running concurrently on the two
charges Of horse stealing and two years
for breaking jail, making seven years
in all. He still maintains his innocence.
1t has been discovered that Duff has
served seven years in the Stony Noun
tain penitentiary for horse theft COM
mitted in Alberta.

Never since the first settlement of
this part of the state has so much in
terest been manifested in any coming
event, both at home and by people liv-.

now being shown in the great racing
meet of the Great Northern Racing as
sociation which is to take place in this
city on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs
day of next week, June Is, 16 and ia.
Already well-known horsemen and peo-
pie from all parts of the country are
focking into the city. and kilograms
and letters are being received by every
mail speaking for accommodations for
hundreds of others in advance of their
coming. The weather-ordered speci-
ally by The Tribune for the occasion
promises to be perfect throughout the
entire meet, and everything else being
equal, which is sure to be the case, an
event without precedent in the history
of the northern part of the state can
confidently be looked forward to. Be-
low we give most of the entries for the
harness events, but it should be re-
membered that besides this list there
will be entered on the day previous to
the Inauguration of the meet, as is the
usual procedure, some thirty-five head
of running horses, coming from every
section of the country and including
many of the best on the turf today.
