ELKS REMNANTS ARE
 HE FINEST EVER
The Preparation of Devices to Attract
 Attention.

The Elks pennants that will be flung to the breeze when the big spe- cial leaves Phoenix on the Sth. and that are designed to attract attention all the way from here to Detroit, ar rived yesterday. and it is no exagger- atlon to say they are the prettiest con- ception in that line that has been seen In these parts. They were especially deslsned and have a purple back ground, bordered with white On the purple background near the head of the pennant is an embroidered picture of a golden elk in front of a pine for est, with the sun rising in the back ground. To the right in white letters standing out prominently are the words Phoenix. Arizona" and near the end of the pennant is a big white star. The creation is attractive without be- ing gaudy.
 best to invent advertising nov cities that will catch the eye of the eastern people and at the same time will teach the lesson they desire to inculcate, that Phoenix is the best place on earth. One of the plans they have under consideration, that may or may not be adopted. is to take four big palm trees with them. On arriving in Detroit these trees would be planted in tubs, set on wheels and be run through the streets at the corners of the parade of the Arizona contingent
 The palm is a very ordinary thing here but is a great novelty to most of the eastern people. Indeed many of them have never seen one. And as an advertisement of this valley and of Phoenix as the Palm" city it is be- lieved would attract great deal of attention. Throughout all history the palm has been an emblem of sunny, southern climes, a region of peace and prosperity and the better things of life, and in Phoenix it is probably the most common Of all ornamental trees It would be an appropriate emblem in every way

and still there was a clamor that the east and west be brought closer to- gether-and it was done. The pony cut the time to ten days.
 Those who were personally ac- quainted with the famous Wells Fargo pony express of those days could never forget the intrepid rider who braved all peril, forgetful of self, intent only on the speedy delivery of his precious mochila to the next hardy hOrseman. Hard and fast he rode over mountain and plain, across scorching desert and icy snow. through sunshine and rain. past friend, away from foe, to the final achievement-the safe delivery of his charge.
 Forty fearless horsemen in saddle riding west, as many more riding east, and this novel but useful enterprise was in motion. For two years the pony express carried messages of business and love across 2000 miles of western mountains and plains. over a country peopled with a hostile race, destitute of cultivation or development, through a region wild, desolate and little knoNSn-
 II WIS III lo0S that tIe pony express was established. The route, briefly stated, was due west from St Joseph to Fort Kearney. up the Platte to Julesburg. thence by Fort Laramie and Fort Bridger to Salt Lake City. thence to Camp Floyd. Ruby valley, the Hum bold, Carson, Placerville and Folsom to Sacramento and San Francisco by boat.
 The intention of the pony express was to carry letters only. and not more than ten pounds at q trip. It was decided that the safest and easiest mode of carrying the mail was to make four pockets, one in each corner of the mochila, covering made of heavy leather for the saddles, and generally used by the expert Mexican and Span ish riders. The mochila was trans ferred from pony to pony. and went through from St Joseph to San Fran cisco the pockets containing the mail being locked and opened only at mili- tary posts en route and at Salt Lake City. These precious letters were wrapped in oil silk to protect them. but even this precaution sometimes failed. Rivers had to be crossed horse and rider swan together.-W c. Jenkins in National magazine.

Washington, June 30-Announce- ment was made today by the inter state commerce commission that it would not suspend officially classi- fication No. 36, involving more than 5000 items. which was filed to become effective July l. This declination is regarded as a victory for the rail roads.

shos and slightly wounded monster
pelican. The doctor brought the big
billed specimen to town and picketed
it out in the yard, where it was viewed
by scores of men, women and children.
Finding that 1t would be difficult to
supply the bird with fresh fish, and
not caring to deprive 1T of it's liberty,
DIR. Hills finally took his prize down
to the river and let 1t go. The pelican
did not seem to be quite able to nego-
tiate the air--or at least did not at
tempt aerial flight-but the way it
padded up stream was far from being
slow. A few hours later one of Sam
Brands hired men came rushing to
the house with word that some sort
of a winged creature that looked as
big as an ostrich had hove to along
the edge of the river Sam seized his
trusty shot gun, crept stealthily to
the edge of the bank overlooking the
river, sighted his prey and promptly
plugged it. Without waiting to divest
himself of his garments he plunged in
to the river, grasped the pelican and
proudly bore it home. But both his
ardor and his prowess got a rude Jolt
when his daughter, Miss Anna, shifted
"Pshaw, l saw that pelican picketed
out like cow in DIR. Hills yard all

value to the farmers. 1t has put the
ground in such condition that 1t is
much better for blowing and in some
localities the farmers were in the
fields today doing this work. The dry
condition of the ground prior to the
rain make 1t all but impossible for
blowing to be done, and it was hard

PLEADED GUILTY
TO ENTERING CAR
TWO or oUARTETTE or YOUNG
MEN NA5REo AT DILWoRTH
YESTERDAY, CHARGED WITH
BREAKING INTO N. r. CAR,
ACKNOWLEDGED GUILT.

With every indication that they were
more than sorry for their crime, two
of the most dilapidated individuals
that have been seen in the Moorhead
court circles for some time were
brought bfore Judge Malloy this fore
noon and pleaded guilty to the charge
Of having broken the seal on box
car in the Dilworth yards of the
Northern Pacific railroad and removed
from it certain articles of merchandise.
They were two of quartette of
young men who were arrested in Dill
worth Sunday, their names being
Frank c. Hanson and o. Maycroft.
The other two arrested by Constable
Bert Gray were Frank Hirne and Mar
ion Dallerhide Hanson gave his resi-
dence as Detroit and Maycroft said
that he came from Minneapolis.
Maycroft was brought before the
court first and pleaded guilty to the
charge while tears streamed down his
cheeks He was a most pitiable look
ing parsonage, an appearance greatly
accumulated by the fact that his left
arm was missing. Hanson also pleaded
guilty when brought before the court
and both were returned to their cells,
Judge Malloy stating that he would
take the cases under advisement, It
was not known what would be done
with the other two men taken, but 1t
was thought that they would be turned
loose, as there appeared to be no
charge against them.
The charge facing the two men who
pleaded guilty is quite a serious one,
as it is burglary to break into car.
1t is evident that the two did not
realize the extent of the crime they
were committing until too late and
they were very probably led to the
deed by hunger, as they only took
canned goods from tho car. Neither
is over 20 years of age.

Rroomhalps Report.

Liverpool, Sept 27.-Wheat: Mar
ket opened easy u to V lower, being
largely influenced by the weaker
American cables yesterday and the
increase in the American visible. Fol-
lowing the opening the market de-
veloped pronounced heaviness and
values declined 1s to VI. This selling
was in the way of realizing. prompted
by the heavy increase in European
visible and offerings of new Laplata
wheat and cheaper Danubian, Mani
toba offers. Spot markets were easy
and u lower with the Manitoba grade
one penny lower. Foreign crop con-
ditions show Improvement and this is
particularly true of the outlook in the
United Kingdom. Reports from Ar
gentine are of continued rains in the
southwest which are very beneficial.
At midday the market was weak and
from * to ] " lower than yesterday.
Corn opened quiet and unchanged, and
later declined % to. u with the prin-
cipal pressure ia October. There was
very poor demand for spot which
is generally lower and the increasing
stocks caused liquidation.

FORKS PEOPLE IN
BAD ACCIDENT

Grand Forks, N. D., Sept. 27.-What
might easily have been a fatal acct
dent occurred about 4 o'clock yester-
day afternoon, when Ford runabout
in which Mr.. and Mrs. G. w. Barton
and their guest, Mrs. Albert Smith OF
Superior, Wis. were riding was struck
by Great Northern switching train
on South Third street. AS it was Mrs.
Barton was badly shaken up and
bruised and the extent Of her injuries
are not known as yet. Her physician
stated last evening, however, that no
serious results were anticipated. Mrs.
Smith had one of her arms slightly in
jured while Mr.. Barton, who was driv-
ing the car, was uninjured.
The Bartons and their guest were
out for a spin around the city when
the accident occurred and were ap-
preaching the Great Northern track
from the south at q fair rate Of speed
The gates were not down and Mr.
Barton says that ne did not hear the
gong ringing. The switch engine was
backing a train Of several cars and as
Mr.. Barton came up on the track he
saw that collision was inevitable

reverse. The train crew saw the dam
ger at the same time and made every
effort to stop. The effort to stop,
however, was unsuccessful, but in
stead of overturning the automobile
which would have meant almost cer-
tain death for it's occupants the auto
was skidded along the track for about
twenty feet before the train was
brought to a stop. The car was badly
wrecked, but none Of the occupants
was thrown out, Mrs. Barton's in
juries being due to the shock of the
impact when the rear of the freight
car struck the automobile.
