September Weather
There Was Nothing Very Startling in
the Meteorological Conditions
of the Ninth Month.

The record breaking hot weather for
North Dakota for the year was not
maintained in September. The month
averaged cooler than the last two Sep
TENDERS. It was the coolest, except
one in half dozen years.
The precipitation was an inch and
three quarters, which is more than a
half an inch less than the normal for
thirty years. 1t was more, however,
than fell the same month last year.
This is slightly favorable indication
for 1911 crops. The total deficiency
in rainfall for the first nine months of
the year in 1915 inches. That foot of
water over North Dakota soil would
have made quite a difference in the
crop conditions
There were a dozen perfectly clear
days, eleven that were partially cloudy
and seven entirely so.
There were two thunderstorms and
two frosts, the one of Sept. IL being
branded killing" The temperature
reached 27 degrees that morning. The
hottest days of the month were Sept
20 and q, the temperature maximum
| of SO degrees on both.

need BIBLE knowledge
Interesting Address Made by Rev. C
r. Adams at the A. c. Convoea-
ton This Morning.

That a knowledge of the Bible is
a necessary requisite of a good educa-
ton was emphasized by Rev. Chas. r.
Adams at the weekly chapel hour at
the Agricultural college this morning
Mr.. Adams strongly endorsed the
work that the Y. M. c. A. is doing
for the male student body in the uni
versities of the country and pointed
out just where and why the Bible
study class is one of the best features
of a modern education.
State Secretary Miller of the Y. M.
c. A. also talked to the students and
outlined a course Of Bible study class
es that the Y. w. G. A. and Y. M. c. A.
will conduct at the college during the
present school year. Mr.. Miller cited
many examples of the force and size
of the Bible~.study classes in many of
the larger universities of the country
and the work toSbe started at the A.
C. will be along similar lines. Bible
study classes will assemble Sunday
afternoons for the men at the mems
dormitory and for the women at the
new dormitory.
Next Monday morning will be music
morning The musical faculty will
give a recital and it is probable that
either the college band or orchestra
will take part in the programme.

TWO DRINKS in COURT
Judge Miller Hears Stories of Two
Men Brought in OFF the Streets
Sunday for Drunkenness.

Judge Miller listened to the tales
of two drunks in police court this
morning and imposed a sentence of
four days at hard labor with a fine of
IS each. John Carlson, known as
Goldfish Carlson, was one of the Of
tenders who was run in by the police
off the streets yesterday. He was found
in an intoxicated condition and unable
to find the way home. - -.
Goldfish Carlson is an old resident in
Fargo and is we'll known in police cir
Giles both in Fargo and Moorhead. He
used to be prosperous contractor and
have a special car but in recent years
he has found his way frequently into
the police court on charges similar to
the one made against him today. He
was in such condition this morning
that the magistrate felt it would be
unsafe for him to even go to work on
the streets for the city, so he was TAX
en- to his cell in the city Jail to sober
up.
Another drunk arrested last night
put up bail of IS, promising to appear
for trial this morning. His failure to
show up today forfeited his bail.

This year, when it was supposed,
owing to 1910 being the poorest year
ever known for crops in the northwest,
that North Dakota might not wish to
exhibit her grains and grasses grown

best exhibit ever seen here.
This exhibit has been shown at Fond

MILLER PLEADS
NOT GUILTY
MAN CHARGED WITH lMPERsoN-
ATlNc INTERNAL REVENUE OF
FIcER AND COLLECTING MONEY
FOR LIQUOR LICENSES DENIES
CHARGE.

Charles Miller, charged with imper-
sonating a federal collector of inter-
nal revenue and collecting money for
liquor licenses while assuming that
guise, was arraigned in federal court
this morning. He pleaded not guilty
and was held to the federal court and
his trial set for the December term
Bonds were fixed at $500 In default
of which Miller will await trial in the
county jail, where he has been since
July.
The preliminary hearing of the Mil
Ter case was held in July before Unit
ed States Commissioner Montgomery,
at which time he was bound over to
the federal grand jury which sat last
week. Unable to give bonds at that
time, Miller has been kept in the
Cass county Jail.
Miller was arrested about the mid
die of July by Deputy Marshal Wood
in Fargo on charge of impersonat-
ing an internal revenue collector for
liquor licenses and collecting money
during his impersonation of govern
ment agent. He is said to have col
lected various amounts from people
who have government licenses and is
sued receipts for same, by Passing
himself off as a government agent and
was soon detected by those who had
made remittances to him. Report of
the matter was made at once to the
local federal authorities and the arrest
was made within a few hours after
Miller had collected his money.
At the preliminary hearing he adj
mitted that he had collected the
money though he did not realize what
he was doing, as he was in an intoxi-
Gated condition at the time Of the es-
capade. From one party he collected
$40, different amounts from two 9TH
! ers. In each case the witnesses testi-
fed that he gave receipts in yellow
| slips of writing paper, written in lead
| pencil, which aroused their suspicion
This morning he pleaded not guilty
and will be tried at the December tern
| OF the federal court.

Pencil Pushers at Savoy.

The Savoy opens it's second week
with bill of extreme interest in that
the headline motion picture pertains
to newspaper men and some of the he
roic things they do in the performance
of their routine duties o=sgetting the
news. Not that the reporters and edi-
tors consider themselves heroes, for If
they did they would wear medals rath-
err than, well, what ever they do wear.
Also the headline in vaudeville is an
Irish comedy and who isn't Irish or
doesn't love the Irish? Mr.. Eddy and
Miss Tallman will present comical
travesty skit entitled A Lesson in
Cooking in which the wonderful things
a beginner can find in cook book
are fully demonstrated
Another of the tinted motion pic
lures which proved so popular last
week will be presented. The title is
Love the Conqueror, and the story is
worth following. A comedy reel, In
sidious Weapons, is worth laughing at,
so that, all in all, the patrons of the
delightful new theatre may be assur-
ed of a splendid entertainment.

VOUCHER OF SAMUEL JONES.

Rams Rosencranse of DENLY, N. D.,
was brought to Fargo yesterday by
United States Marshal william IT..
Warner of the Nebraska district from
Omaha, where he was arrested Sat-
urday. Rosencranse is charged with
forging pension voucher belonging

missioner Montgomery for arraign-
ment this afternoon.
Rosencranse is claimed to have
forged the pension voucher belonging
to the old soldier, Samuel Jones, last
January. Lack of Sufficient evidence
until within the last three or four
weeks prevented the federal authori-
ties from taking any action until Sat
urday, when the, arrest was made in
Omaha. Marshal Warner of the dis
trict of Nebraska was assisted in
bringing the prisoner to Fargo by DR..
Sheridan, who acted as guard.
Rosencranse is reported to be a
member of DENLY family who have
been somewhat CONSPICUOUS in court
cases prior to this time, and Is well
known. to the local force of United
States marshals. The pension check
and voucher belonging to Jones, was
for the amount of $50, which covered
a period of three months pay from the

Nebraska Belle Chooses the Suitor
Whom Chance Favored.

ELI, Neb., March 2.-Henry
Ransom and Jason Brown are both
fine young men. Miss Amelia Nc
Intyre was convinced of this. They
had been calling on her a long
time, and ecery time she looked
them over each was evidently pos
sessed of so much nobility, chiv-
airy and pulchritude that she fab
tered at making choice between
them. This was all the more en-
barrassing because each wanted
her to marry him. So what did
Amelia do but give them little
dinner graced with a juicy turkey.
The three did justice to the tur-
key and stripped 1t to the frame.
Then did Miss Amelia whack off
the said turkeys wishbone and
tell them to break it between them
and the one who retained the larg-
|er piece should have his wish, this
being, as is well known, the pc
|culiar property of wishbone.
They broke 1t. and Ransom held
the larger piece. Well, you can
guess what he wished. And Amelia
made the wish come true.

Council Can't Tamper
