INSULTED WHILE

NORTH SIDE WOMAN BRIGHTEN

STRANGE MAN - NEieHBoR-

WHICH PUT BRUTE TO FLIGHT.

Accosted and insulted while in i1er
own home, was the experience Of a
lady who resides on the north side,
according to report which has been
kept well guarded for couple of
days. The woman who went through
the experience, which made her hys-
terical. resides with her husband in
the neignborhood of Fifth avenue and
Sixth street north. It was about 10
o'clock In the evening and seated by
an open window she awaited the arr
rival Of her husband, who is tele-
grapher and works In the evening.
Probably mistaken in the neignbor-
hood, man appeared at the window
where the woman was seated, grossly
insulting and frightening her almost
into Mysteries. Rushing to the front
door, she screamed at the top Of ner
voice. TN short time the whole
neighborhood was on the scene. The
man had Disappeared In the night,
leaving no trace. It was several hours
before the woman recovered sufficient

DEATHS IN FARGO CAUSE OF
SOME COMMENT.

Infantile paralysis Of which there
have been several cases In Fargo
during the past few weeks, resulting
in three deaths, seems to be a new dis
ease which is baffling physicians. II
attacks only young children and It's
appearance in one or two cases in
Fargo has caused some comment.
In the larger eastern cities where
congestion Ia marked, the disease has
caused a number of deaths in the past
few weeks. Although physicians seem
to be unable to understand the dis
ease or its cure 1t Is by no means al
ways fatal.
Whether the disease is contagious on
not is mystery, but it seems to spread
sometimes seemingly without any d.
rect contagion 1T is said that some
of the greatest physicians Of the coun-
try are making q thorough study Of
the disease and its cause.
