AUSTRALIAN CONSUL
VISITS GRAND FORKS

Grand Forks, N. D., July John
P. Bray, United States consul to Aus
tralia, and a former very we'll known
Grand Forks resident, arrived in the
city yesterday and will spend the day
here shaking hands with old friends.
Mr.. Bray leaves tomorrow for Van
couver, where on July 10 he sails for
Australia by way of Honolulu and the
Fiji Islands. Mr.. Bray came directly
to Grand Forks from Washington,
D. C.
IT don't know of any city, either
in this country or any other, which
l have visited in my travels, that has
developed as rapidly and as we'll as
has Grand Forks" said Mr.. Bray last
evening. 1t has been five years since
he last visited this city and he char
acterized the Improvement in that
time as wonderful. Mr.. Bray left
Grand Forks in 1897 when he was ap-
pointed to the consulship in Australia.
Before that time he had been a resi-
dent of this city since the early days
and held several county and state
offices.

RED RIVER IS RECEDING
With GREAT RAP|DIT\

Grand Forks, N. D., July 7.-One of
the noticeable effects of the drought
is the way in which the Red river has
receded until the water is now lower
than it has been since 1900, when the
gauge registered 1 6-10 feet below
zero or the low water mark. Accord.
ing to Captain Hayes of the govern
ment service, the river gauge on Mon.
day showed the river to be 2 $40 feet
above the zero mark, with the water
sinking slowly. Manager Sorenson of
the Red River Transportation COM
pany said yesterday that he believed
the water had gone down nearly four
inches during the night. Under ord.
mary circumstances the rate of sink.
ing is tenth and a half of foot in
IA hours.
The low water on the river, &C.
cording to Manager Sorenson of the
transportation company, means that
the steamer Grand Forks and her
barges will be tied up until rain brings
a change in conditions. The steamer
was at Olso yesterday and consider
able difficulty was experienced in navi
eating on account of the low water
The low water also means that the
company will be obliged to refrain
from giving any further steamboat ex
cursio1s until there is change in
conditions.

tBy Associated Press.)

Chicago, July Jack Johnson, the
champion prize fighter, is once more
at home with his "mammy''-and his
automobiles.
In Rome returning victor was let
into his native city with his spoils
through a breach in the wall and to.
day John Arthur Johnson, best of
modern gladiators with cestus, came
into the city with his following thru
a solid wall of people. 1t was SO

future wee off.

make me laugh. I am not running

"Quit? Well I'll tell you, I never
told anybody would quit. But it
looks as though would have to, don't
it,"
Five thousand members of his race
and a big sprinkling of whites made
the living wall at the Chicago and
Northwestern railway station when
Johnson arrived at 2 p. m. Police
were kept busy and we're swept away
like chaff when the immense fighter
looming among the crowd and with
a grim look, fought his way through
hand claps and good natured pats on
the back; to a waiting automobile.
Home in An Automobile.
Five minutes later with rush and
a roar he shot out of somewhere IN
his new 100 miles an hour racing cal
and dashed madly home where his
mother, Mrs. Tiny Johnson, and the
members of his family waited in the
midst of another crowd of thousands
for his Homecoming.

PURCELL thinks Being
SENATOR A HARD JOB

Fargo, N. D., July Nv. E. Pur-
cell. United States Senator from this
stale, who was a Fargo visitor yester-
day. is not thin. He has never been
accused of that. but he admits that
he lost forty-five pounds since he en-
tered the senate, and while he does
not concede it, no doubt his loss of
weight is due to his strenuous work
on the Ballinger investigation COM
mittee.
This business of being senator"
said Mr.. Purcell yesterday. "is hard
work. When I was appointed United
States senator, I did not expect that
l was undertaking a job that does
not carry work with it and was not
disappointed. When I was appointed
to the committee to Investigate the
interior department, found that l
had plenty of hard work in front of
me. And the work is not yet ended"
Although Senator Purcell admits
that he is tired and that he has lost
weight, he has lost none Of the ener-
gy that has always characterized his
movements. In Fargo yesterday he
was busy greeting his friends and
talking over the last session Of con.
gress. While not too much pleased
with the results of that congress, he
says that some good legislation was
secured, with much left to be desir.
ed.
Mr.. Purcell has not announced his
plans other than that he will be a
candidate at the general election in
November for the United States sen

WESTERN UNION CUTS
OUT BROKER SERVICE

New York, July 7.-Without explain
alton or warning, the Western Union
Telegraph company discontinued it's
service today to brokers in ten cities
of this state and Pennsylvania. The
cities affected as Pittsburg, and
Johnstown, Pa, and Syracuse, Ithaca,
Rome, Utica, Gloversville, Auburn,
Waterfowl and Cortland, of this state.
Executive officers of the company
took the stand today that, under ad-
vice of counsel, they could not dis
cuss the company's policy. Officers
of the New York stock exchange de-
MED that the cut in service was in
any way insigated by them, or that
they had any knowledge of it. There
were many rumors that the company
was acting on the advice of someone
in Washington supposed to be very
close to the attitude of the attorney
generals office, but these could not
be confirmed.
Hitherto the Western Union has al.
ways taken the stand that, as CON-
mon carrier, it had no right to refuse
any business offered it, provided such
business was couched in decent Ian
guage. In fact, the company argued
that any attempt by it to investigate
the private affairs of it's customers
would be inquisitorial and intolerable.

POTATO BUGS and
Their environment

Chicago, July Fifteen years of
experiment with potato bugs have
convinced Prof. William l.. Tower, hi.
ologist of the university of Chicago,
that environment causes variation of
species. Prof. Tower in lecture yes
terday before summer students Of the
university, told the results of his re-
search in Arizona and New Mexico.
"This theory has long been held, and
1 have proven it without chance of
controversy" said Prof. Tower. ri
took three species of potato bug to
the southwest. put them in differ
ent parts Of the country, and in time
each section produced q different
type. The outcome of these expert.
mehts has convinced me that expert
mental evolution is still in its in
fancy"

He pushed his way into the house

tears streaming down his face, en-

Friday night Johnson will appear
at the colored peoples theatre for
a few minutes, after which he will at

Future Plans in Doubt.
His future plans, he says, can be
outlined only generally, and this is
how he generalized them: Sleep
some; eat a pile of good food and
drive his racer.
AS to the fight, he has adopted new
answers to inquirers. 1t is nod, a
knowing wink and a smile of depre-
ciation-and gold teeth. AS to his fu-

will, unless they force me out"

IN. P. SURVEYOR WORKING
near SCHAFER RECENTLY

Schafer, N. D., July 1.-THE N. P.
surveyors, who so suddenly disap-
peared from this vicinity, and who, it
was believed by many, had abandoned
work here, are hard at work near the
Bob Wilcox ranch on the Little Mis-.
souri, river. They have been doing
preliminary worke below that place
and have located ten miles of line
along the southern boundary of the
reservation. The reason for this sud-
den jump ahead of about twenty
miles on their proposed line down
Cherry creek and the Little Missouri
is that rumor had reached the ears
of the company that another road
would build line into the country
from this quarter.
at this place, the N. P. can hold the
preference of right Of way in that
portion of the county for at leas..
four years.
The surveyors are now running
their preliminary line up the Little
Missouri river and Cherry creek, and
will connect with the line they had
been running down Cherry creek. This
completed, they will return and finish
the preliminary survey down to the
mouth of the Little Missouri.
That the work now being done in
this vicinity is of vast Importance is
demonstrated in that they are one of
six crews now working out of ninety
crews at work before the railroad be-
gan their recent retrenchment.
The grade on this line is one of
the best, being only three and a half
feet to the mile along the river, and
about fifteen feet up Cherry creek.
