4 STRONG STATEMENT:
ABOUT RUSSELL TRIAL

The Boston Globe of January 80 said !:
One of..the most interesting and re-
markable circumstances connected
with the issue now being fought out in
the Middlesex probate court on the
petition.of Daniel Blake Russell, is the
large daily attendance of some so men
and women now or formerly residents
of Melrose and now firm believers in
the identity.of the::claimant as the man
they knew. lin his young manhood.
With..them are. others. who although
not having acquaintance with him in
youth, hold to the same firm belief. be-
cause Of their interviews with, the
petitioner. his appearances on the wit
ness stand and the..iucidents related by
Others in and out of the court.
| Almost without exception these people
90 beyond the statement Of opinion and
are ready to declare to anybody and
under all circumstances that their con-
viction that the claimant is the son of
the late Daniel Russell. is no less than
actual personal knowledge.
February 1 was the 80th day oi actual
hearings since the trial began, Septem-
Der 20. No person can tell when the
end will be. +.

the EXPERTS REPORT
May COME IN A week

1t was learned this week that the
experts report from the city hall would
not be available for the regular meeting
of the council next Monday evening but
that il might be in the hands of the
special comittee by the close OF another
week.
The work of the expert accountants,
as already stated in the PRESS, was
completed some little time ago. The
findings are now in the head Office of
the company at Minneapolis. One of
the men from the head Office, who was
here this week, said the report would
have immediate attention on his return.
Unoficially. it is learned that the j.
IS. White defalcations as city treasurer
are still some So, 800 short, which is in
addition to the ST. 400 which he squared
early in the investigation before it was
learned that he had been swindling the
county for many thousand dollars.
AS soon as the report comes from
Minneapolis special meeting of the
council will be called to listen to the
findings and to take such action as is
necessary in the matter.

LY1LE LOST CONTEST
cAR0N HOLDS CLAIM

The contest case of J. o. Lytle vs. A.
S. Caron heard some time ago at the
land Office at Lennon was decided
January IA in favor of Mr.. Caron. MIR.
Caron's was second entry, based on
being mislocated on worthless land.
MI. Caron made application for his
second entry in May, 1907, and no
question would ever had been raised
as to his right to second entry had
he not been wrongly advised at that
time as to relinauishing his former
entry. Lytle's protest was based on
the ground that there was no abandon
ment of the first entry. but the land
Office held that although Mr.. Caron did
not actually leave the land until the
spring Of 1908. the fact that he had filed
a contest on the land he now holds and
desired at the time of filing his contest
to relinquish his first entry coupled with
the fact that by reason Of circumstan-
ces it was impossible to remove his
family. it was an abandonment. -

According to the following which ap-
peared in the Forum on Monday Geo. H.
Purchase is insane:
Demanding that he be taken before
Judge Pollock and be allowed to plead
guilty to issuing forged checks. holding
the opinion that he is prosecuted; that
parties are endeavoring to place him
in the Minnesota penitentiary instead
of the North Dakota pen, and endeavor-
ing to find some one to take deeds to
certain property which he wants to
dispose of-with his mind befuddled in
this condition, Atty. Geo. H. Purchase
of Beach, N. D., was taken in custody
by the sheriff this morning.
information as to his condition was
filed in the county court this morning
by Atty. T. H. McEnroe, after the
latter became aware Of the mans con-
diti0n. The western attorney called on
Atty. Crum this morning and left q
knife with the latter to avoid trouble.
Purchase will be examined this after
noon by the Cass county insanity COM
mission. The man came to Fargo last
week on legal business which he trans
acted, the result being favorable. To-
day he stated that he wanted to have
it reversed.

CANNOT ACCEPT HoHoRs
DR.. sIlcknEY DECLINES

A delegation of business men waited
on Dr. v. H. Stickney at his Office on
Sims street on Monday evening and
urged him to allow the use of his name
for the Office of mayor at the regular
April election. The delegation was a
laree one and presented the doctor with
a long list of petitioners.
d.. Stickney thanked the delegation
for the honor and confidence bestowed
in him but he said that there was rea-
son why he could not take the office and
the petitioners were unable to persuade
him otherwise.
During the conference DR.. Stickney
expressed the belief that Dickinson
should adopt the commission form of
government. : He hoped that the people
would look into the matter and if they
did he was sure they would desire to
make change. which he said would
mean a great deal for Dickinson.

GIVES H0MEsTEADERs
LITTLE MORE TIME

Representative Martin of South Dakota
is the father of the following bill
which recently passed both houses of
Congress:
THAT all persons who made home
stead entry in the states of North Da-
kota. South Dakota, Idaho. Minnesota,
Montana. Colorado and Wyoming,
where the period in which they were,
or are required by law to make entry
under such declaratory statement, or
establish residence, expired or expires,
after December 1st. 1909. are hereby
granted until May 18th, 1910. within
which to make such entry or actual
settlement and establish residence
upon the lands so entered bv them:
Provided, That this extension of time
shall not shorten either the period of
communication or Of actual residence
under the homestead law
Sec. 2. That homestead settlers upon
the public domain in the states above
named are hereby granted a leave of
absence from their land for period of
three months from the date of the
approval of this Act. Provided, that
the period of actual absence under this
Act shall not be deducted from the full
time Of residence required by law.
The Dickinson press., 1910-02-05

His line Of engines will include the
well-known make of Hart-Parr engines
for which he has taken the exclusive
agency.
Mr.. White will spare neither time nor
money in establishing a first-class
machine shop, the equal of any this
side of the Twin cities. He is himself
a thorough machjnist. good organizer
and man of splendid executive ability
and knows just how to 60 about the
business.
It is his intention to work up to a
foundry. There is none west of the Mis-
souri river, in fact. none worthy the
name this side of Fargo, and it is a
business for which there is a rapidly
growing demand. The possibilities are
great in this direction. People would
gladly come so or 100 miles to Dickin-
son if they could get machine repairs
such as a aood machine shop and
foundry would afford.

JANUARY WEATHER
LITTLE ABOVE NORMAL

The mean temperature for January
was Is degrees above zero, or 2 degrees
above normal. The first few days of
the month were quite cold but the last
half of the month brought the average
up in fine shape. Soft chinook winds
cut the snow FROM the hillsidess to some
extent and helped the stock grazing.
The snow fall for the month was A. so
inches, OF measured in water, IA Of
an inch. 1t was 22 degrees below zero
on the 3rd Of January and the highest
temperature was 48 degrees above on
the s3tst. The minimum mean tenn
perature was 2 deGrees above and the

co. K Boys DEFEAT
the GLEN Ullln TEAM

Dickinson lovers of the basketball
game were out in goodly numbers to
witness the contest between the home
team and that of Glen Ullin on Wednes-
day evening at the armory.
The final score stood so to rs in favor
of Co. X. The militia boys were in
pretty good shape, not like the night
they played the Triple BIS.
The game had its interesting points
although the score indicates a one
sidedness. It was smoothly played
generally and Co. X boys won by their
superiority in basket shooting. The
visiting team showed some skill in pas
sing and team work and had no trouble
in getting the ball near the goal, but
they lacked, however, in ability to make
baskets. their shooting being wild and
inaccurate. They had a SPLENDID man
at center. who did his work well.
The home team were all stars in this
game. Kunz excelled in the number
of baksets made. He has a rare accu-
racy of landing the sphere inside the
net. Birch. also scored high for Dickin-
son and is one of the favorites of the
team. Baird, as usual, was a main
factor on the floor, displaying utmost
celelity at every move. Field and
Fleury also made spectacular plays.
OF the rs points made by Glen Ullin.
10 were from fouls. Birch and Kunz
alone made 80 scores for the home
team and were not as enthusiastic or
accurate as they might have been had
the scores been closer.
After the game a social dance was
enjoyed and of course, everyone present
had q good time. The music was
furnished by the Dickinson Military
orchestra.
1t is not known yet when the next
game will be held but the jamestown
team is anxious 10 come here if they
can so arrange.
The good sized crowds that have been
in attendance at these last games are
pleasing evidence of the fact that
the Dickinson sport-loving populace
are becoming interested in this great
winter athletic game.

GEO. MILLER
SUICIDES
SENT UP FROM STARK co. FOR
8 YEARS FOR KILLING BRAKE
MAN CARR. MILLER WAS A
HOBO. HAD SERVED YRS.

George Miller, who was sent to the
pen from Stark county. sentenced to
serve six years after having been con-
victod on charge of manslaughter in
the second degree committed suicide
by hanging in q cell at the institution
Sunday morning.
1t seemed that Miller has caused the
officers of the prison trouble at various
times during his incarceration and at
one time he picked up heavy iron
bar and assaulted one of his fellow
convicts and came near killing him.
He was after this kept by himself for
some time and soon after he was again
allowed to mingle with his fellow
convicts he again committed an assault
on another inmate of the prison. Since
that time careful watch has been kept
over him.
Saturday evening he was taken with
what was supposed to be an insane
fit, stripping himself of clothing and
throwing water on the bed and bed
clothes. He made so much noise that
he was "laced in solitary confinement.
Sunday morning he was apparently in
better mental state. He called for the
deputy warden and talked with him for
q time and it was only half an hour
after he was found hanging to the bars
in the cell door. he having torn up
his shirt and made rope of it.
Arrangements for the funeral have
not been made as yet as it has been
impossible to locate his relatives and
the body will be held for time pending
an investigation.
One of the things brought out at the
inquest was the fact that at one time
Miller had attempted to starve himself
to death and went for twenty days
without taking food, and when he
found that the physici an was going to
make him take food via the tube route.
he gave up the fight and began to eat
again.
1t will be remembered that Miller
was sent from Dickinson in the spring
of 1906 TO the state penitentiary He
with two other hoboes were riding on a :
freight train some miles east Of here.
when they were ordered by the brake
man to get off. In the fight which
followed Miller killed the brakeman,
Oscar Carr. o. Mandan, and received
sentence of six years, and served almost
four of the term when he committed
suicide. Nothing had been learned of
his past life or relatives.
