Continued Until Monday.

The case of the state against Mark
Madigan of GAINESVILLE who is charged
with the theft of a valuable set of
double harness from a car Of the Great
Northern railway company over year
ago, and which was before Justice
Wade yesterday was again continued
until next Monday to allow the pres
ence of Joe Velthouse who will be
brought here from the penitentiary at
saltwater for the state.
AS the preliminary hearing Of this
matter progresses 1t seems that the
people of GAINESVILLE have been enter
tanning a past master in the art OF
catching box car thieves and during
the few weeks he made his home in the
village he found out that some men
about the town were not at all what
they seemed to be--some of them have
become jewellers in Mesopotamia, or
some other place at least the atmos-
phere about GAINESVILLE became de-
cidedly unforfortable and they fed
when the grip of the law became fas-
tened upon Mccarthy and Velthouse.
Madigan, the last man to be arrested,
is said to be the person who tpeached'
story which led to the arrest OF
Frankhauser ane Velthouse but 1t is
alleged that evidence will show that
he did that in the hope Of saving his
own aeon and that he was between
the devil ard the deep sea in the mat
ter of choice.

ADA PAPER HAS A GOOD sue-
cEsTIoN FOR THE STATE BANK
ERs-PRovIDE FUNDS TO SEND
FIVE YOUNG MEN TO THE A. G.
FROM EACH. COUNTY.

Referring to the action of the state
bankers association in connection
with the appointment Of a dean for
the agricultural college The Norman
County Herald at Ada, has the follow
ing suggestion in this weeks issue:
THE state bankers association has
been doing some extensive letter writ
ing in which they give unlimited ad-
vice to the regents as to the methods
to be used in running the state agri-
cultural college. The bankers could do
a great deal OF good through. their or
ganization in this respect If the banks
in each county would chip in and con-
tribute enough to send FIVE young men
from ever county in the state to the
state farm school for a year. The APP
pointments--or selections---could be
made by competitive examination sys-
tenn. what do you say to this you
bankers of the state The prosperity
OF Minnesota depends to a large meas
ure on the productiveness of te soil
and the bankers could do much toward
increasing the value of land by send
ing some Of the future farmers to the
agricultural school. OF all classes of
business men the banker knows that
1t is money that talks and that letter
writing will not bring back to the soil
its fertility and the fulness thereof.

PASTORS SON SENT TO PRISON.
Graduate of Northwestern Wears
Stripes for Stealing Shoes.

Marshall, Mich, Dec. 1O.-John j.
Meyer OF. Chicago, who says his father
is pastor Of Methodist church in
Wisconsin and that he himself is a
graduate Of Northwestern university,
was taken to jackson prison today to
serve five-year sentence for stealing
pair of shoes valued a s1.75 in Bat
tie Creek Mich. Meyers is intelligent
and fashionably dressed. In court he
told Judge North he would rather die
than have his father hear Of his pre-
dicament
Officers believe he is a professional
shoplifter and is wanted in many
Michigan towns, which accounts for
the heavy sentence. He claims to be
a minister Of the gospel and pleaded
with the court for a chance. The name
he gives is believed to be assumed.
He had no money and said he would
go to prison rather than ask his
father for money

vofits on the bulge and that the mar
was due for a reaction Of j to 3
snts. Traders i'd that the future OF
The market depended on the attitude OF
the big holders OF December, who have
paid over s1,250,000 on cash wheat this
week. If they hold onto their cash
wheat and the balance Of the teeir De-
cember. traders predict a bull market.
Traders looked upon the Argentine
news as bullish, and in view of that
there were several cables here from
that country which were very bullish,
but parties having them were too mod
est to put them in circulation. 1t was
said that the short interest In Deem

COME TO RESCUE
OF ice SKATERS
ISLAND PARK RINK FLOODED
THIS AFTERNOON BY THE
STREET coMMlssIoNER-cLINK
OF THE eLIpERs WILL SOON BE
HEARD AGAIN.

If Street Commissioner August
Johnson just continues his present
policy it is probable that he could be
elected mayor when the present gene
ration of ice skaters reach their ma
jority and cast their ballots with just
as much force as they do their Skinny
sticks now.
The snow storm and recent ex-
tremely cold weather put the ice rink
in Island park out of business. This
afternoon the street commissioner had
two streams flooding the rink and it
is expected that in the course of a
few days it will be in prime condi-
ton for the Yuletide merrymakers.
There will be little time during the
Christmas vacation that the rink is
not in use, il anything like favorable
weather is enjoyed.
