Minot, N. D., Aug. 20 Especially
When Marcus Bunce of Groveland,
Mass, arrived in this city expecting
to meet his prospective bride from
Ryder, who had assured him of her
love after answering an advertise
ment in a matrimonial journal, he
found her the wife of another. Ar.
rangements had all been completed
by letter. Bunce had sent his pros
pective bride a handsome diamond
ring and had even sent a substantial
check with which to pay for her
wedding outfit. Upon his arrival in
Minot, he called for his fiance at her
place of employment, only to find
that she had two days before be-
come the bride of a poor but hard
working young man in this city.
Bunce threatened proceedings at law
and was only persuaded to leave the
city when the ring and the money
he had advanced were returned to
him by the successful suitor. Bunce

reported breach in relations between
President Taft and Colonel Roosevelt.
There still appears to be a disposi-

with the newspaper reports from New

any intention here of issuing a state

up to this time President Taft was
up at $3.50 this morning working on
the letter he is to contribute to the
republican congressional campaign
text book. and at eleven o'clock he
boarded the yacht "Sylph" and went
out to see the little American boat
Harpoon win the Taft cup in the
Spanish American races. He took a
lot of material and a stenographer
with him and continued work on the
letter while at sea. Representative

party on board the "Sylph," is chair
man of the Ballinger-Pinchot inves-

planes. His present machine is one
OF the latest Bleriot type. with "a,
