YOUNG D Nc VA 4 n d / 5 .
ENTER DRiscoLL SCHOOL AND /
WRECK THE INTERIOR AND
PERFORM OTHER cUssiDkEss.

Lastx week, during the preparations
for the school entertainment, a the
door of the school house was left
unlocked, and the first visitor the
following morning thought that 2:
cyclone had struck the interior. Torn
books covered the floors, the. stoves
tresembled frozen ink fountains, and
the school flag, earned by a recent
entertainment, resembled sleeping
robe for Towser. &~'s@ ~ +.
An investigation was at once in
stituted, and the ringleaders in the
mischief making proved to be two
little sons of c. Bertheau. Suspic-
ion pointed to them, and upon being
charged with the exhibition of mate
cussedness, they fessed up. It is
thought they had accomplices, but
thus far they have not been located,
and the little boys refuse to impli.
cate their companions.
The youngsters had made the
stoves target for the contents or
ink bottles. had torn covers from
library books, and dragged the flag
in the dirty mess, and in other ways
done all the vandalism they could.
It is understood their father will as
far as possible settle for the dam
age, but even this will not soothe
the feelings of the school authorities
who took so much pride in the school.
If their age permitted the young lads
would undoubtedly get permanent
school residence in Mandan for sew
eral years, and the least they should
get ought to be good flexible barrel
stave applied by vigorous man on
the portion of their anatomy built for
that purpose until the man wearied
from fatigue.-Driscoll News.

MURDER in THE r. !.
SECOND DEGREE
A CHANGE OF INFORMATION
AGAINST DR.. M0ELLER TO
BE FILED. :-%


ney Dudley Nash of Minot and Attor-
ney E. r. Sinkler of Grafton. assist
ing him in the case of the state VS..
DR.. Thor Moeller of Minot, originally
charged with performing criminal
abortion, held a conference in this
city yesterday and decided to file in
formation against Moeller for murder
in the second degree.
The information first filed against
DR.. Moeller did not specify the same
crime as that for which he was bound
over, and the doctors attorney, E. l..
Sutton, with this end in view, moved
that the action be dismissed at the
preliminary hearing.
As a result Of the conference held
in Grand Forks the new charge was
made and is somewhat different than
the original charge, in that it carries
a penalty of from five to ten years,
instead of from one to three years.
The case will come up for trial on
Wednesday OF this week before Judge
Goss in district court, and promises
to he the most sensational profession
al case ever brought up in the state.
The case has developed considerable
state interest and will be in the
hands of such prominent attorneys
as Dudley Nash and E. r. Sinkler for
the state, and E. L. Sutton for the de-
PENDANT.
