i Large ON PRAIRIE.

BUILDINGS HE DISAPPEARS
MIGHT SEARCH MADE.

Grand Forks, N. D., Aug. ga
Thomas Skor, supposedly insane, is
at large in the vicinity OF Shawnee,
Nelson county, just along the western
border Of Grand Forks county, and in
search Of him are officials of that sec
ton Threats to burn barns and
other buildings caused considerable OF
a scare and a close watch has been
maintained for several nights in a
wide area to prevent him from doing
any damage.
Skor Is about 81 years of age and he
has worked in the vicinity OF Shawnee
for some time. Lately it Is claimed
that he has been acting queerly, but
the climax came Friday night when
his threats at using fire became
known and were noised about. There
was considerable excitement about the
little town for some time but no dam
age resulted.
Shortly after making his threats
Skor dropped out OF sight, making for
the rhral districts where he has since
been hiding. Chief of Police Fadden
at Larimore was notified of the affair
during the evening and made a trip
to Shawnee but was unable to locate
the man.
Skor, It is claimed, has been in the
asylum once.

MARCUS BUNCE
DISAPPOINTED
THE GIRL CHOSEN FROM FIVE
THOUSAND FINALLY MAR
RED ANOTHER.

Minot, n. D., Aug. 22.-When Mar
Gus Bunce Of Groveland, Mass, arrived
in this city expecting to meet his
prospective bride from Ryder who
had assured him of her love after an
swering an advertisement in a matri-
monial journal, he found her the wife
of another. Arrangements had all
been completed by letter. Bunce had
sent his prospective bride a handsome
diamond ring, and had even sent a
substantial check with which to pay
for her wedding outfit. Upon his ar
rival in Minot he called for his fance
at her place Of employment, only to
find that she had two days before be-
come the bride OF a poor but hard
working young man in this city.
Bunce threatened proceedings by law,
and was only persuaded to leave the
city when the ring and the money he
had advanced were returned to him by
the successful sutton. Bunce left
yesterday for his home in the east,
with his right hand appraised prom
Using never again to resort to the mat
rimonial agencies to find a help-mate,
and with the firm conviction that
money could not buy the love Of the
North Dakota damsel.

Loses His Eyesieht.

Dickinson, N. D., Aug. 22.-Joe H.
Heisler left for Harrisburg, Pa, where
his wife and grown up children
awaited him.
The case Of Joe Heisler is sad. as he
has lost the use of his eyes and the
doctors can give him no encourage
ment for thinking that he will ever
regain his sight.
Joe Heisler, who is a cousin of VIM.
Heisler Of this city, came out from the
east last fall and after spending the
winter in the western part of the state
filed on a homestead in April near
Alpha, about twenty miles south of
Sentinel Butte. Shortly thereafter his
eyes became very bad and for a while
he used home remedies, but finally
after becoming totally blind, he came
to Dickinson where the physicians
told him that they could not help
him. He went to Fargo and consult
ed a specialist with no better re-
suits 1t seems that the optic nerve
Is affected, probably from nervous
trouble, and there does not seem to
be much hope for the man.

MARRIED 28YEARS;
now DIVORCED
DIVORCE GRANTED ENDS LONG
STANDING MARRIAGE
CRUEL TREATMENT
ALLEGED.

Grand Forks, N. D., Aug. 22.--Mr.
and Mrs. Ole Peterson Ode, Marvel,
welded July q. 1881, divorced Aug. 10,
1910.
That is the record of their martial
relations but there have been a lot
of things happening between dates.
If the findings OF fact as set forth in
the decision OF Judge Templeton on
Friday evening are correct, cruel and
inhuman treatment of the wife by the
husband has been INDUCED in for
some time.
In the twenty eight years of their
welded life, they were the parents of
thirteen children, eight of them still
living, four OF them being minors.
According to findings Of the court
the husband has been guilty of nagging
his wife, accusing her of extravaganza
of dress, mismanagement of domestic
affairs and numerous other similar in
cidents. Also he has been at swords
points with Mrs. Ode's mother and
has referred to her from time to time
In sighting manner.
The property division effected pro-
vtdes for the husband receiving $4,000
of which amount $500 is In cash, the
remainder being in the form OF 9
mortgage. The wife receives the
property valued at about $4,000. She
also gains the custody OF the foul
minor children.

Feb. IA, 1884, a Mr.. Packard issued
the first print Of the above named pa
per in the then newly erected building
across the street from where The Her
aid has been printed. Mr.. Packard
was editor during those stirring times
of the Marquis De Mores and Roose-

excitement; If bullet holes in the build
ing is an evidence of his standing with
the community, he at least came in for
attention.
In one instance that is a matter of
nation wide history, one Finnegan,

BUYS GOODS BUT
REFUSES TO PAY
MlNoT MANS MIND BELIEVED TO
BE AFFECTED BY A FALL
NEARLY A YEAR AGO.

Minot, N. D., Aug. 22.-Injuries re-
ceived in a cave-in of one Of the big
waterworks bitches nearly year ago,
seem to have affected the mind Of
John Gavin, who was arrested upon
complaint made by local merchant.
Gavin entered the store apparently
in his right mind. He selected neck
tie and other small articles that he
wanted, but upon receipt OF the pack
age refused to pay for them. The
clerk demonstrated and when still un-
able to get the money attempted to
get the package back.
Gavin drew a knife and attempted
an assault upon the clerk. The police
were summoned and Gavin was taken
to the city Jail.
When searched there he was found
to have $50 in cash upon his person.
During the night Gavin was pleas
ant, agreeable, but this morning had
another violent attack and started a
row in the Jail. When these attacks
are over he remembers nothing of
them.
The injuries which Gavin received
over a year ago when the sides Of
one OF the big bitches caved in on
him are believed to be responsible for
his condition.

and about SIT in money taken out. 1t

received funds enough to get to her
mothers home. The children were too
small to be able to give any descrip-

INTERESTING
PERMIT CASE

Lakota, N. D., Aug. 22.--There was
decidedly interesting druggist per-
NIT case up before Judge Templeton
at Lakota, the applicant for the per-
NIT being o. M. Slouhlin Of Aneta.
Mayor Wade Of Aneta and some twen-
ty residents of the city were on hand
to appear against the granting OF
the permit. The mayor was placed on
the stand and in substance said 1t
would be a menace to the law and or
der of the city OF Aneta to have a.
permit granted to anybody. He adj
mitted that the character of Mr..
6oluhlin was all right, but declared
that the fact that there was drug
gist's permit In the town made 1t east
er for blind piggers to shoulder or
the blame for drunkenness in the city.
One other witness. was called, but he
had nothing to add to the mayors tes-
timony. The applicant being admit
tedly of good character and having
presented the proper petition and
made affidavit, Judge Templeton
granted the permit the only course
open under the law. 4
