ROBBERS fNJURE A YOUTH
YOUNG MALCOLM TOMBSTONE
SUSTAINS SERIOUS HURTS.
Young Man Frightcns Thief Away
From Stable, Then After Battle
in Dark is Brutally Beaten.

Newberry, Nov. ga dastardly
deed was committed in this city last
night by would-be robbers, who were
foiled in their original purpose by the
manly interference of Malcolm john
stone, the 16-year-old son of State
Senator Alan tombstone, who came
near losing his life, and is severely
bruised and injured as result of his
bravery in protecting the property of
his aunt, where he was staying.
Mr.. Johnstone stays at night at the
residence of his aunt, Mrs. Clara Nc
Gravy, who lives on Johnstone street,
near the residence of Alan Johnstone.
Some time during the night young
Johnstone heard a noise on the prem
ises, which he distinguished as sub
dued voices near the cotton house.
He secured his pistol and went to in
vestigate. Going to the cotton house
he found nothing wrong, but heard
a noise at the stable. Entering the
lot he. saw a man leading one of the
horses out of the stable by the bride.
He hailed the person and told him II
he did not tell who he was he would
shoot. The robber kept the horse be-:
tween him and Mr.. Johnstone. Fin;
ally Mr.. Johnstone fired his pistol to
frighten the horse. At this the party
ran. Mr.. Johnstone emptied his pisl
tol at him. He then returned to the
jhouse,. reloaded his .spistol and, went
back to investigate. He found the
pasture .sgate leading, into the lawn
.ajar and walked, few yards down
the lane,~the direction the robber
had gone. Two parties at this time
came out of the bushes and advanced
on Mr.. Johnstone, who fired on them.
They returned the fire. Mr.. john
stone enptied his pistol and turned
ITO go back to the house. He was
pursued, overtaken, knocked down
and beaten until he was unconscious.
He was left there, and as near as
Mr.. Johnstone can reckon the time,
an hour later he recovered sufficient
ly to crawl or drag himself near
enough to tenant house in the yard
to give the alarm He was at once
given every medical attention. His
lower limbs were paralyZed. He had
been struck a severe blow on the back
of his head and beaten terribly on the
back with. a heavy stick. &C.,. ..l... l..
Mr.. Johnstone was not able in the
dark to distinguish whether the par
ties were white or black.
At noon to-day he was some better.
The doctors say his mind and eyes
are not injured; he has some slight
use of his right leg; but no feeling
whatever in his left. The physicians
have hopes of his complete recovery
after a time. :. i
Mr.. Johnstone is bright, manly
young fellow. No stone will be left
unturned to apprehend the guilty par
ties.

SHOT BY HIS SON.
Father Attacking the Whole Family
Was Fired Upon.

Laurens, Nov. 21.-Jesse v. Full
ler, substantial and hard working
farmer of this county, was fatally
shot at an early hour this morning
by his 18-year-old son, John lrby
Fuller, death ensuing four and a half
hours later.
The shooting took place at 5
O'Clock and was, it seems, the sequel
of a series of domestic troubles, Pc
riodically precipitated by the head
of the family himself. Apparently
brooding and fretting over his treat
ment yesterday of another son, Ben
Tillman Fuller, whom he is alleged
to have brutally assaulted out in the
field, Jesse Fuller, the father, arose
this morning in an extremely bad
mood and became furious upon find
ing that Ben Tillman Fuller had left
home during the night.
Jesse aroused the entire family
and started in, as he declared, tc
clear out every member of the house
hold by assaulting Mrs. Fuller with
a heavy brogan shoe, after which he
secured his pistol and was in the act
of leveling it on his wife, when the
boy, John Irby Fuller, standing or
the stairway with gun in hand, warn
ed his father not to shoot or strike
his mother another blow. >.
: Instantly Fuller, who was stand
ing in the living room across the
hallway, faced the son and was shot
down, the entire charge of shot TAX
ing effect in the abdomen. Aftel
coming to town for a doctor, young
Fuller returned to the city at
o'clock and gave himself up to the
sheriff, requesting that he be per
mitted to attend the funeral in the
event of his fathers death. He is al
the county Jail tonight, but will pro
ably secure bail tomorrow. Jesse
Fuller was 43, and member of the
Woodmen of the World. ..

that whereas they Fay the government

to fish, the industries which pollute
the streams only pay the state a beg

to publish a high-class maga-

Yet together with it's many
attractive features The Chicago

readers with it's Sunday maya

favorably with the best weeklies

merits peculiar to itself. The
most famous writer's and illus

of the choicest novels of the

There are dozens of places in

B0TTINEAU'S GOOD SHOWING.
County Ranks High In State In Pro
ductlon Of Cereals.

The Gold-Stabeck Land &
Credit company has issued
neat folder giving a list of the
North Dakota counties with
their average production of
wheat, oats, barley and flax,
and as they rank in the average
production of these four cereals
for the years 1901 to 1907 in
elusive, as taken from the re-
ports of the commissioners of
agriculture. Bottineau county
makes an excellent showing,
standing second in the entire
state on the average production
of these four cereals per acre.
Had the year 1908 been includ-
ed, this county would undoubt-
edly have been first as it stands
but .O3 per cent below the
leader.
Bottineau, with 15. 76 stands
fifth in the average number of
acres of wheat per acre; oats,
second, with an average of
80. so; barley, fourth, average
%. rs; flax, tenth, average 10. 36.
Last year Bottineau county
raised more wheat than any
county in North Dakota and
the average yield was also pro-
badly greater. The official fig
ures will not be available until
the assessors returns are COM
piled next summer.
