KNOWN TO PIONEERS

ships in Administering to the spir.
ituaI Needs Of His Flock.

The Williston State has the fol.
lowing kindly mention of Bishop
Wehrle, in connection with the re.
cent visit of the bishop to that place:
Bishop Wehrle. is one of the pion.
GERS of this state, and can well re-
call when the territory from Grand
Forks to Billings, Mont, was naught
but vast stretch of prairie land
with here and there a lone settler
who braved the many hardships OF
a new country. The bishop will be
better known to the old settlers as
Father Vincent, and it was he who
looked after the spiritual needs of
the few Catholic settlers living be-
tween Grand Forks and Billings
which comprised his mission. Bish'
OPP Wehrle may be truthfully styled
the Father Hennepin Of North Da
kota," and it was largely through his
untiring efforts that this section OF
the state enjoys it's present pay pros
perity. He was one Of the trainers
of North Dakota and Williams Co.
history. Many an early settler will
recall the many hardships. Father
Vincent was forced to undergo in
order to care for their spiritual
needs. Winter and summer alike, he
travelled over this vast stretch OF
country administering to the wants
of his Pensioners, always mindful
Of their needs with never a thought
OF his Own welfare.

SHERIFF'S TEAM
IN SMALL RUNAWAY
DEPUTY BARNES AND CHEF OF
OF POLICE MCDONALD IN
THE RIG.
Barnes Was Thrown Out and Stunned
and Mcdonald Was Dragged by the
Feet for About a Hundred Feet.

Deputy Sheriff Barnes and Chief of
Police Mcdonald we're mixed up in a
small runaway Monday afternoon, and
it was only a piece of rare good for
tune that neither of the men were
seriously injured.
They were driving along on Mandan
avenue and one of the wheels of the
rig ran off into the ditch. The drop
was so sudden that it pitched Barnes
out head first with the lines. The
horses became frightened and started
to run, with the chief in the rig minus
the lines. He finally leaped out and
as he did so the lines became en-
tangled around his feet and he was
dragged about one hundred feet be-
fore the horses stopped.
Barnes was stunned by his fall fol-
a few minutes, but soon regained CON
seriousness and besides a severe shak
ing up and few bruises, was other
wise uninjured.

FAMOUS MALE VOICE
CHOIR MAY COME SOON
THE MOUNTAIN ASH MALE VOICE
CHOIR HAS INTERNATIONAL
FAME.
Special Reception and Concert Given
at White House During RooseveIt's
Administration.

Rev. JnO. r. Hughes of this city
manager of the Mountain Ash Male
Voice Choir, which is now on it,
third tour of the Unit ed States, with
the intention of having the choir
sing in Bismarck.
The choir will be in Minneapolis
for an engagement in November and
it will be possible to secure them for
a concert here provided sufficient
guaranty is made by music lovers
of this city.
Mr.. Hughes is therefore circulat-
ing a petition to cover the price OF
the attraction and so far has met
with a ready response.
To those who have not heard this
wonderful choir or who, are not IA
miliar with their record, the follow
ing may be of interest:
The mountain Ash Male Voice
Choir is composed Of twenty-seven OF
the best male singers Of Wales, Eng
land, and has seldom been heard In
this country. They are considered
to be the finest group of male voices
now giving concerts. At a special re-
ception and concert given at the
White House during President Roose.
velt's administration, the president
stated that he had never in his life
heard such magnificent singing and
this opinion is repeated by all who
hear them.
Should Mr.. Hughes be successful
in bringing the choir to Bismarck,
it will be a chance of lie time for
the people, young and old of this COM
munity. Their programs are varied
delighting everyone, leaning perhaps
more to the old familiar songs than
to operate music and provide an
evenings entertainment never to be
forgotten.

QUESTION OF WHO is NOMINAL.
Ed TO BE DECIDED By ST.
PREME COURT
Nominees for Judge and Treasurer
are Fighting for What They
Claim Are Their
Rights.

This afternoon at two o'clock the
supreme court will dive into the
mysteries of the law surrounding the
division of Ward county. 1t appears
that the men who are nominated
and awarded the nomination by the
board of canvassers received a suf-
ficient number of votes in the entire
county to be nominated but in the
part that is Ward county after the
division their opponents received
the majority. The contention Of the
appellants in the case is that the votes
only in what is Ward county now
should be considered. The district
court decided that the votes Of the
entire county should decide the nom.
nation but the parties this decision
let out of the running did not like
the game and appealed to the SUI
preme court and the arguments will
be heard this afternoon.
