clear saving Of all that portion of the
stenographer's time that would, un-
der the old plan, be devoted to the
taking of dictation One of the most
interesting exemplifications of the ad-

WENT TO Shoot A
WOLF; KILLED SELF
OLD PIONEER OF THE NORTHERN
PART OF THE STATE STUN
BLED OVER STONE
AND LOST HIS
LIFE.

Forman, N. D.. July 30.-W. w.
Marble, a well known pioneer, who has
inhabited what Is known as Marbles
gulch, near the south line of Sargent
county, for many years, met with sud
den death. He told his wife that he
wanted to shoot wolf, and picking
up rifle started forth from home. His
wife was nervous and told him that
she would like to accompany hin-but
the man refused to allow her to go
with him. Shortly after came the re-
port of the rifle, and the woman hurry
ing to the spot found her husband
dead. Marble was well edcuated, but
was subject to spells of great mental
depression, and had had one Of these
spells prior to his death. He was about
45 years Of age, and had lived at
Marbles gulch at least twenty years.
The deceased was in well to do cir
cumstances, and but for simple acci-
dent, might have enjoyed many more
years of life. II was at first thought
that he had committed suicide, but the
coroner, after examining the remains
and the spot where the tragedy oc-
Cured, declared that the deceased
stumbled over stone In some acci-
dental manner, causing his gun to be
discharged.

WRITING ROCK IN
NORTH WILLIAMS
HISTORIC OLD STONE WHICH
HAS WRITING ON IT THAT
INDIANS CANNOT UN-
DERSTAND.

Williston. N. D., July SO.-Up in the
north end of Williams county there is
an old stone slab that evidently has
historic value and to show that the
writing on 1t is really unusual 1t is
fact that none of the oldest Sioux
or other tribes OF Indians can under
stand the writing nor do they know
anything of how the rock came there.
The rock Is situated in township 1e1,
range 101, on what is known as the old
500 trail about ffty-f1ve miles north
of this city, and is regarded as a
strange piece of work belonging to
another age than this and the writing
II it could be unraveled by some scien-
tiflc wise guy, would no doubt reveal
something very interesting.
This old 500 trail Is the way the
Indians travelled between the Turtle
and the Rock Mountains and is still
used by them and in passing the rock
they all acknowledge its writing is as
mysterious to them as 1T is to the
white man but believe they are on
sacred and holy ground when near the
curiosity.
The spot is place for the pres
ent settlers to gather for picnics and
1t is said that many curious things
have been found near by and under
meath the rock in the way OF arrow
heads, war clubs and axes.

Of adopting or rejecting the state herd

action, the question will appear on the

application for the injunction was
made by the cattle raisers of Perkins
county, who do not want to see the

Homesteaders claim that much damage

COMPLAINTS OF SHORTAGE ARE
MADE AT FOREST RIVER

Grand Forks, N. D., July 3O.-There
appears to be a general demand
through the northern part of the state
for men for harvest work. Many have
already arrived in the state, but ma
jority of those here are evidently not
looking for work. Forest River and
Devils Lake both have made com
plants of the shortage. Employment
will be offered through the harvesting
and threshing season, and in many
cases even a longer period of work
will be offered by reason Of the fact
that many farmers will be haying after
the harvest season is finished.

to Minneapolis. Arriving there, he ex-
pressed the suitcase to brother-in-

AID FOR FARMERS.
Counties Will Help Those Who Need
Seed Grain.

Minot, N. d., July 30.--North Dakota
farmers will not be obliged to suffer
anything in the way of seed grain
shortage next year, although there will
be light crop in the state this year.
The state legislative assembly, two
years ago, passed a bill providing for
county assistance for farmers needing
seed grain. and 1t will work out quite
well next season. The law in question
provides that any county in the state
may create seed grain fund through
the issuance Of bonds, and the farmers
securing assistance give the county a
lien ON the crop raised.
