RESIDE IN. FARGO is QUESTION
BEING ASKED BY JAMES YER
PoNT-RIcH ESTATE IN EAST
Is AT STAKE.

Was chauncey s. Fielding ever
resident Of Fargo?
This was the question asked many
times this morning by James s. Yer
pont, cousin Of the man who arrived
this morning from Cleveland, Ohio, in
search OF some trace OF the missing
relative. 1t is the opinion Of Ver-
pont that his cousin owned a ranch
near jamestown some fifteen years
ago. The last heard Of Fielding by
eastern relatives was when he sold his
property in this state in 1894. II was
the supposition then that he moved to
Fargo
According to the Clevelander who
spent the day here, the presence OF
Fielding in an Ohio city will play an
important part in the distribution of
an estate which is being probated
there now. A rich uncle OF Fielding
made him the main heir of a rich es-
tate but unless some trace of the man
can be found in the next sixty days,
certain evidence that he was killed in
Mexico, will be accepted and the prop
erty win be distributed otherwise.
Mr.. Verpont expects to leave today
for either jamestown or points fur
tner west where he will continue his
search for the long lost relative. The
did not in any way dampen the ann
bition of the searcher who still hopes
to find some trace Of the relative.

Little Pat McMullen. the 9-year old
lad whose record for stealing wheels
eclipses anything ever heard in this
city, will be given one chance to make
good. If he fails to take 1t. he will be
sent to the state reform school at Man
dan to remain during his minority.
There was not a person who saw little
Pat in the city jail yesterday, even
those whose wheels were stolen, but

However they suggested that ne might

farm. To carry out this. the case was
adjourned for a few days.
Yesterday afternoon the city hall re-
sembled a bicycle shop The little
chap who stole so many wheels, told
where he got each one and who he
sold 1t to. The police notified all par
ties to be present at the station after
school. The wheels were brought in
and identified. Not one but was
equipped with coaster brake and MANY
other late devices indicating that Pat
McMullen has some knowledge in the
matter of picking out wheels. 1t is
believed that the whole matter will be
out today.

GERMAN GIRLS
COURT BLACKS

Berlin, Oct 26.-Strange currents
flow beneath the smooth surface of
German social life. A few months ago
missionaries in the German colonies
discovered that regular correspond
ence Of an amatory character was be-
ing carried out between native youths
and young girls in this country.
The correspondence seems to have
originated with educated blacks. who
have visited Germany, and here enter
ed into more or less tender relation
ships with morbidly disposed damsels
the acquaintance being kept up by let
ter after their return home. Then, one
day the dusky swain would receive a
word from his white adnirer that she
had friend who would also gladly
conduct a similar correspondence with
a BLACK gentleman" and so, after the
manner of snowballs, the exchange Of
sentimentalities spread from one
couple to another with great rapidity.
When the facts first became known
here they were received with a good
deal of incredulity, but official investi-
cation has absolutely confirmed their
accuracy, and the government has now
issued, through it's newspaper, a warn
ing to parents and teachers to be on
the lookout for this pernicious traffic
among their daughters and pupils. In
quiry has shown that in the majority
Of cases the initiative came from the
female side, not only school girls. bur
young women in business, and even
female students having addressed
themselves to natives with a wish to
enter into correspondence with them
The semi official notice says:
Frequently the delight in the ro-
nance Of an exchange of letters with
a negro. and, If possible. with a black
prince, seems to have been the motive
1t is, unfortunately, clear from the
contents of the letters ingenuously pro-
duced by the bIacks-mostly young
men Of from IL to 20 years-thar some
OF the writer's in inditing the epistles
had to a deplora.ble degree lost the
sense of their own position. The send
ing of photographs of the letter-writ-
ers is nothing unusual. OF course. the
senders never thought that their pho
tographs would be hung up by negroes
in their dwellings, along with all sorts
of other pictures, and that 1t produces
painful impression on the white OBJ
server when he sees the portrait OF a
German girl, evidently belonging to
the better classes, in intimate COM
partnership with picture Of black
beauty of unknown origin. Conse-
quently it is not to be wondered at,
If 1t is good form among the colored
male youth of some colonies to have
a lady friend in Germany"
The warning is given in the entire
press, and the publicity thus given to
it may have the effect OF checking the
scandal. On the other hand, human
nature being very uncertain, in its re-
actions, It La possible that quite a con-
trary effect might be produced.

Now that winter Is at hand, there

ton when the fires are started" said
a prominent Fargo insurance man to-

There is also carelessness in start
ing fires. the indiscriminate use OF
kerosene, and carlessness about hand
ling stoves, which should be guarded
against. While fire. fighters all over
the country are endeavoring to find
some way to eliminate at least part
of the appalling annual f1re-loss Of this
country the people should use all the
care they can to guard against this
danger.

having a first -class fire department

Pleasure and Sacrifice.

An alert little f1ve-year-old was vis.
iting a city park with her mother
for the first time. She had noticed
the beautiful red and white swan
boats, as they passed through in the
morning, and her mother had prom
ised they should come back after the
shopping was done and have a ride,
says The Youths Companion.
Shortly after dinner they stood on
the bridge over the lagoon, watching
the boats below and listening to the
cry of the barker as he tried to IN
duce the passing crowds to patronize
his swan boats.
But when her mother started to-
ward the boat landing little Elsie de-
clared very vigorously that she did
not want to go at all, and as her
mother urged her broke forth IN
tears.
This sudden fear was so different
from her former eagerness that her
mother could not understand 1t until
she noticed the boatman's call.
He was crying: Come along, come
along-ride clear around the pond
only five cents for ladies and gents
children thrown In"

Woman Sentenced to Prison.

Cleveland, Ohio, Sept. 20.-Rather
than loan his former wife $500 which
would have kept her from going to
prison, Jacob Fickel, a brewer, saw
her sentenced to the penitentiary for
two years here to-day. Sentence was
SUSPENDED and Mrs. Fickel's son will
attempt to raise the money and save
his mother.
Mrs. Fickel embezzled S593.76
from the estate of Bertha Bozenhart
while acting as guardian to the wo-
man last winter. She was convicted
but Judge Vickery told Mrs. Fickel
she could go free if she would
repay the money. Mrs. Fickels son
tried to raise the money but failed.
ANY man who Is half a man would
do as much as is asked Of Fickel to
save the mother of his children, even
though he had no regard for her as
his wife," said the judge.

Should Preach Peace.

New York, Sept. 19.-Rev. DR..
John Wesley Hill, who had viewed
the European attitude toward arma-
ment during his recent trip abroad,
preached at the Metropolitan temple
tonight on "Peace for Men and Ma
tions," saying in part:
During the last quarter Of a cen
tury, a period of Incompatible peace,
the armies and navies of Europe have
enforced an expenditure of SILL
O0O,00O,00O, enough money to pay
for the education of every European
child and put an end to the tragedy
of poverty.
"A great responsibility rests upon
ENGLAND and the United States. They
have it within their power to put an
end to these war preparations and
drive the war dogs back to their ken
nels, and to usher in the reign of the
millennium Of peace"

It was stated at police headquar-
tiers yesterday evening that the larg-
est return shipments of liquor yet
made by the blind tigers and the IL
licit liquor dealers in the city in con-
sequence of the vigilance maintained

Seven Men Injured.

Lakeland, Fla, Sept. 18.-A Sc
rious wreck occurred at o'clock to-
night on the Atlantic Coast Line near
Winston, two miles above this city,
when passenger train No. SO from
Jacksonville jumped frog, turning
the engine completely over, injuring
five persons.
Engineer C. T. Crippens, Of San
ford, Fla, Will Ropson, express mes
senger, Of Jacksonville; Goldie
Smith, colored, Jacksonville; Jim
Branch, fireman, Tampa, and Conduc-
tor Davenport were injured and the
passengers were severely shaken up.
Full particulars are not at hand and
it is not known whether or not any
of the passengers were badly in
jured. The engineer and fireman
were pinned under the engine and
badly scalded, and messenger Ropson
was thrown in the scalding steam
with broken limbs. Smith was struck
by a driver of the engine and his leg
was mangled.
A relief train brought the injured
to this city and it is believed that En-
gineer Crippens and Messenger Rop-
son will die. The others are resting
easy. The track was badly torn up
and traffic is being delayed.

TRIED TO LIBERATE BROTHER,
Mrs. Lille Selby Convicted in Rich
land Sessions Court.

Columbia, September 17.-Mrs.
Lille Selby was found guilty this
morning of aiding a prisoner in an
attempt to escape, the jury remain
ing out about one hour. Mrs. Selby.
young woman, was charged with
sending to her brother, who was con-
fined in the county Jail, instruments
with which he was planning to effect
his escape.
Mrs. Lille Selby was in court with
her young baby. She is herself a
very young woman. She did not ap-
pear to be very much concerned over
the trial. Now and then she would
glance at her young kinsman, Donnie
Gardner, who was handcuffed. He
had plead guilty to the charge OF
aiding in the plan of escape. The case
against the other three defendants
who were charged with aiding in the
attempted jail delivery had been mol
pressed.
The incidents leading up to the
arrest of the young women were very
dramatic and interesting. On the
night of August IA the plot to liber-
ate three dangerous prisoners was
foiled. Charlie Gardner, Will Chad
Ter and Tom Ingram were the prison
ers. Charlie Gardner, who is the
brother of Mrs. Selby, was in jail on
charge of housebreaking and lar
ceny. He was charged with taking
goods that were shipped by the local
boat line.

Will Develop Power.

Orangeburg, Sept. 19.-At it's last
session the legislature granted char
ter to Mr.. William c. Wolfe and his
associates under the name Of the
Edisto Power Company, the purpose
of this company being, as stated in
the act, "to build dams across the
Edisto river, erect power houses
thereon, dam and pond the water,
of said river and generate there
from electric current and energy
which is to be transmitted to the
city of Orangeburg and other places
in the vicinity to be used for lighting
and manufacturing purposes and the
operation of electric cars
In other words it is intended to
convert the water power of the Eds
to river into electric current.
Preliminary surveys have been
made and the power of the river
measured. The next step is to make
a profile survey so that the cost Of
construction may be accurately esti-
mated.
It has been ascertained that 10000
horsepower can be developed, not
with ease, but by the expenditure of
a reasonable sum Of money.
This is the most important enter
prise that has ever been undertaken
in this section of the State.
The company is authorized to con-
denim such lands and property as it
needs, which means that it may take
such lands as are necessary and leave
it to jury to determine how much
the property is worth.
The act requires the work to be
commenced within two years and
completed in three years.
