1t appears that the only relatives
of the victim Of the accident, residing
in the United States, lives in California
and 1t is impossible for him to reach
this city. Several Greeks who reside In
the city have interested themselves in
the case, desiring to see that the case
be ferretd out and If there was any
blame to be placed, to see that justice
was done.
The fact that the man died in hos
pital with regular physician in at
tendance takes the case out of tha
hands Of the coroner unless some one
makes request for an Investigation.

attending physician stating the cause

FINDS HUSBAND
DEAD IN HIS BED
CHARLES r. REEFS LlFELEss
BODY FOUND WHEN WIFE SUN.

THIS MORNING - DEATH oc.
CURED DURING NIGHT.

Charles r. Reed, a glassblower. liv-
ing at 1913 Fourth avenue north, was
found dead in his ben By his wife at
the usual rising time this morning,
between and 1880 o'clock. The fam
ily retired last night as usual and Mr..
Reed made no complaint as to his
health. ~
This morning Mrs. heed, who was
generally the first to arise, called to
her husband to get up. and repeated
1t two or three times. but received
no reply. Finally she went to the
room and found her husband with life
extinct. The body was q-ite cold and
1t was evident that her husband had
expired during the night. For some
time one of the little sons had made
1T a practice to sleep with his father
upstairs, the mother occupying a
room with two other children down
stairs. The boy who had been sleeping
with his father complained to his
mother, when he got up, that he was
cold, that his father had not covered
him up with the bed clothes and his
father was awfully quiet in bed. The
theory is that the little fellow was
made cold by the lifeless body of his
father
Mrs. Reed notified the authorities
at once and Coroner Vincent and a
doctor were soon on the scene Mrs.
Reed was emphatic in her demand
that a postmortem be held and she
took the initial steps herself, calling
Drs. Cambpell and carpenter of
Fargo. Late this afternoon the latter
were in consultation and the action of
the coroner was dependent upon the
decision of the professional men.

The big farms look their best, Mr.
Chaffee said, and while in seasons past
there has been too much water, scarce
ly any complaints of excess moisture
have been heard this year.
Three features of unusual interest
appear in the seeding down OF these
lands. Diversification is more pro-
nounced In former years the land
would have gone mainly into wheat.
The comparatively small acreage of
barley is another feature Barley has
been a profitable crop in the north
west, and it was thought that Mime
sofa, North and South Dakota would
this year have larger acreage than
ever. The proposed reduction of the
import duty may have had some eff
feet.
Unusual Corn Showing.
The third surprise Is the large por-
tion allotted to corn. North Dakota
has made progress as a corn state, but
is still thought of as being too far
north. Much of it is fodder corn.
The distribution of seed on the S11e-
mia and Sharon lands cannot be ap-
piled to the grain acreage Of North
Dakota as a whole The division in
Cass, Richland Trail, Grand Forks,
Walsh and Pembina, the six Red river
counties, may differ greatly from she
alIotments in the tier below the Can
adian line. If the figures. from the
Armenia and Sharon lands were. how
ever so applied, the showing would be
that North Dakota will have larger
fax acreage, much more land in corn
and oats, less barley than at first ex-
pected and a smaller acreage in wheat
than last year.
