LARlMoRE OVER.

IArimore, N. D., Dec. 23.-Yesterday
afternoon at Larirnore closed one of
the most enthusiastic and successful
farmers institutes ever held in the
state For a number of years. Lari-
more has been famous as an institute
town. and in the two days session OF
this year, gained still greater prestige.
In connection with the institute was
held a mid-winter fair that proved a
great drawing card and very interest
ing.
At both morning and afternoon ses-
sion, as on the day previous, the city
hall was packed to the doors with
farmers eager to hear and to learn of
better ways of farming. The days in
terest was added to greatly by a baby
show in the afternoon, where six little
cherubs Wed with each other in dim
pies and smiles for the prize. For the
time being. the farmers took more in
terest in the babies on exhibit at Ar
nold's fur store than they did In the
fine horses, the chickens or the vetget-
able show, and interest was rife as
to which of the little dears would
capture the prize. The first prize, a
beautiful set of furs finally went to

Before She Died.

Word was received by the Union
Light, Heat & Power Co.. last night
from Samuel Kahn, general manager
OF the company here, stating that his
mother had died Sunday night at her
home in San Antonio, Tex. Sunday
Mr.. Kahn received two kilograms from
San Antonio stating that his mother
was very Ill and for him to come at

train and the word received from him
last night was sent from some place in
Missouri where he had received a wire
telling him the sad news Of his be-
reavement. He probably will arrive in
the Texas city tonight.
Mrs. Kahn was known by a number
of Fargo people who met her while she
was here last summer when, with a
daughter she visited with Mr.. Kahn.
They stayed at the Gardner and made
many friends among Fargoans who
will be shocked to learn of her deach.
The many friends of Mr.. Kahn extend

MINoT CLEANS HOUSE.
Injunetions Again Placed on Houses
In Minot's Tsnderloin District.

Minot N. D., Dec. 2S.--Injunctions
have been granted, pending a hearing
on complaints issued sfrom the states
attorneys office, charging Rose Burke
and Florence Grover with operating
bawdy houses within the jurisdiction
of Ward county. The places in ques-
ton are located in hollow north of
the city on the John Malloney farm.
1t was thought at the time the houses
were put In operation a short time
ago, that they wouldn't be interfered
with by the authorities. inasmuch as
they were well beyond the city limits
and so located that they did not at
tract the attention of anyone except
those who intended to VISIT the ten
derloin. Thus once again are the
ladies of the hollow scattered about
the city.
