BOXCAR ROBBERS
UNDER ARREST
DEVILS LAKE AUTHORITIES Suc-
cESsFuL IN LOCATING SUP
POSED HoLpuP MEN.

Devils Lake, N. D., Oct 31.-In a
box car on a freight train that went
through here ole Denmark Of Churchs
Ferry was robbed OF his overcoat, grip
and $65 in money,
Denmark had been spending the day
here and had become SO badly intoxi-
Gated that he missed his train and
through some sort of intuition decided
to take a freight home and so sought
oat the box car and was no sooner
settled when two men came in and
threatening him made him hand over
the above articles.
The performance somewhat sobered
him and he knew enough TO get off
and hunt up the night policeman. Po-
licemen Trumbull and Macbeth began
working on the case at once and while
in a restaurant 'phoning the sheriff's
cffice Trumbull saw suspicious
stranger and began an investigation
that lead to his taking the stranger
into custody The man arrested had
only So and said his partner went east
on freight but as No. 2 was late
Policeman Trumbull rather suspected
the other man took that and gave the
conductor a description of a man seen
that day with the arrested party. At
Lakota the conductor found on his
train man answering the description
and turned him over to the Lakota
sheriff where he Is held until the au-
thOrities from here go after him.
The fellow i'm Jail is Arthur Sharky.
He says he was one of the men who
entered the box car but did not do
any Of the work and according to what
was found on him he only made a
good days wages for his services as
companion.
Policeman Barnes says that the man
now in the county Jail is one of a
bunch of men that have been around
town for some days and now thur they
have proved themselves undesirable
characters, he win see that they leave
town at once.
Later communications between the
sheriff's Office here and at Lakota con-
firm a suspicion that the man held at
Lakota is Roy Wilson, who just fin
ished shortly ago, term for stealing
$40 from q companion. Wilson had
been hanging around town ever since
his release, and was seen with Sharky.
When found in Lakota he had the
cvercoat but no money. 1t is not
known how much of a search was
made as he has a few ideas in con-
cealing money.
The money he took before when he
was arrested was found in his stock
ings. He Is a young man, only 10
years old and whether he is only new
at the business and just learning, he
evinces a determination to keep it up
He told at one time that he was a
deserter from the army.

20 HOURS WORK To
MAKE ROADS GOOD
o. WARD KING, ROAD EXPERT
so TELLS THE GOOD ROADS
ASSN MEMBERS.

Darlington Independent: If the
farmers of Foster county would devote
twenty to thirty hours year to drag
ging the roads about their farms, ev-
cry highway would be a boulevard,
passable at all times of the year,
within a few months time, said ID.
Ward King, the road expert, in ad-
dressing the members of the Foster
county Good Roads association at
Buchanan's hall Friday afternoon.
To encourage the farmers to use
the log drag on the highways of the
county next season, the Good Roads
association has raised a fund of $500
which Is to be distributed in prizes to
the farmers who do the best work
around their places.
Mr.. King invented the split log
drag a few years ago and 1T has since
made him famous throughout the
world. 1t consists Of a split log or
two planks, narrow side down, held
apart about three feet by braces. 1t
is SO simple in construction that 1t is
hard to believe the wonderful work it
viii accomplish. In use, the drag is
drawn at an angle OF about forty five
degrees, being worked so as to throw
the loose dirt into the center of IA
road.
Mr.. King stated that travel, earth,
rain and' sunshine made puddle dirt
that Is, the combination resulted in
forming a water proof substance on
top CT a road. If this was then grad =
ed so that there would be no ruts,
the road cover would soon become
water proof, shed any amount of rain
instantly and mud would be unknown
When King drag is used the EN-
tire road chen becomes disable, so that
eacn wagon will make different path
than its predecessors. Hence no ru.s
| traffic over tie entire surface, it is
all soon equally hard and forms the
/ wnter proof puddle dirt.
BY elevating the road in the center
drainage is formed so that water
runs off Immediately. Mr.. King ad-
vised that country roads should not
be more than fourteen to sixteen feet
| wide. At each side ditch be made
| to handle the drainage water.
The drag should be used just when
| the earth is beginning to dry and
while yet moist. Nothing should be
put in mud hole to fill it except
mud.
/ Mr.. King advised that to improve
the prairie roads of this section, they
should be cut while soaking wet with
a sharp disc. Later the soil and soc
could be moved onto the road. Con-
siderable discussion followed this
statement, many farmers present ar
guing that it was impossible to cut
| the Foster county sod with a disc
Mr.. King said that road shoule
never be plowed. He claims that a
good road can be built with his drag
| through slough.
After Mr.. Kings talk a large num-
Der of farmers present agreed to test
out the merits Of the drag next sea
| son. Announcement as to. how the $500
in prizes is to be distributed will be
published later.

WILL TEACH
Former A. C. Instructor Secured by
California High School to Teach
Agriculture.

Herman, Cal, News: A course Of
lectures in agriculture is TO be added
to the curriculum of the Herman high
school within a very shotr time as o
result of arrangements which have
this week been completed between the
school trustees and Prof. K. K. Kauf-
man of Herman, formerly professor of
dairying in the North Dakota Agricul-
tural college. Two hours, one after
noon a week, will be devoted to the
lectures and demonstrations which
kaufman will give
An important feature in the new
course is provision whereby adult
residents Of the high school district are
to have the privilege of attending Pro-
fessor Kaufman's lectures. The trus-
tees Of the high school, in view of the
fact that the school enrolment is Small
and that many more people can be
seated in the school room, felt Ii only
right to give the supporters of the
school an opportunity to take advan-
tage of the new course.
BY those qualified to judge, it is felt
that the Herman Union high school has
been very fortunate in obtaining an
agricultural teacher of Professor
Kaufman's experience and capability
Most of the high schools of the state
have had to place their agricultural
departments in charge Of recent agri-
cultural college graduates, we'll trained
1t is true, but without much expert
ence in putting their knowledge to
practical use.
Professor Kaufman is a graduate of
the Iowa State college at Ames, Ia
Shortly after his graduation he accept
ed an instructorship at the North Da-
kota college of agriculture and remain
ed there for a number Of years, grad
ually rising until he held the professor
ship OF dairying. He was also director
of farmers Institutes In that state and
in that capacity gained a national rep
utation.
He is experienced in practical farm
ing as well as theoretical, and will be
particularly valuableman on that ac-
count
Tie first lectures to be given by Pro-
fessor Kaufman will be on dairying, a
subject of Importance to nearly every
resident in the land of Herman. These
will be followed by others on Irriga-
ton Practice, Animal Husbandry and
other phases of agricultural science.

FEARED A KIDNAPPING
Sharon, NJ. o., Has an Exciting Day
Father Takes His Child, Causing
CONNECTION.

Sharon Reporter: Last Monday was
rather exciting day at Sharon.
Events came so fast that 1t would al
most require Dan Patch to follow UP.
What almost looked like case of kid
mapping in the forenoon, stirred things
up for while and kept the wires
warm; democratic rally in the after
noon, then our little 2-year-old boy fell
head first to the bottom of our els
tern, now under construction and con-
sequently empty-luckily escaped with
just a bump on his head, besides a
number of lesser happenings, kept us
busy all day
The little boy of the kidnapping"
case is the little 6-year-old boy, known
at the Sharon schools as Kenneth Po-
indexter, but whose real name was
Kenneth Paulson. 1t seems little Ken
meth has father living in Minneapo-
lis, who, by the way, is said, to be
quite respectable man, and his
mother is at present living here and
known as Mrs. Clara Paulson.
Mr.. Paulson, of as Western avenue,
Kenneth's father, and w. III. Dewey, Of
1905 Upton avenue south. Minneapolis,
who are conducting the Deleey bakery,
arrived in Sharon Monday morning,
went to the school house and, wait
ing until recess, soon discovered the
boy and told him to come home with
them. 1t is said by the school children
that the boy refused to go and began
to cry and scream and hide under the
seat of the school room, also clingins
to his teacher, telling her he would not
go, but to no avail, the men took him
forcibly and marched him down the
track towards Finley.
States Attorney Johnson telephoned
the sheriff at Hope and Mr.. Stanley
Immediately went in search OF the
party, and apprehended them some
where near Finley. The states attor-
ney went down, meeting the sheriff
half way between here and that place
Upon inspecting papers and letters
which Mr., Paulson had from authori-
ties in Minneapolis, however, it was
decided to let the party go on their
way to Minneapolis, and give the faith
err the custody of the child without any
further proceedings.

Dem. Rally Makes Ran. Votes.

Crosby, ~. d., Oct. 2S.--To The For
um; The democrats OF Crosby held a
rally at Sagerby hall this evening
and were addressed by L. ID. McGohon
of Minot and r.. IT, Stenwiok of the
same city. a fair sized audience
greeted the gentlemen The main
points of the addresses were that the
report given out by The Forum as
to the governors appointments was
not true, as Mr. Stenwick had re-
ago, thus reducing the total OF $50, $50
by $500, making the total democratic
appointees as corrected, $50, $3.50.
Another argument was that Cow
ernor Burke Is the first governor 10
make his residence at Bismarck, the
speaker forgetting to state that an
extra appropriation was made to Gov
ernor Burke's salary, rendering 1t pos
sible for him TO do so. The Mckenzie
bugaboo was worried to fragile but
nothing was said as to voting for
Andrew Jackson.
The usual charges were made that
G. A. johnson is tool for the corr
porations, with no reference, however,
to the fact that John Burke refused
to vote for increasing the taxes OF the
railroads at valuation of $4,000 per
mile, and that he had appointed the
Great Northerns attorney as United
States senator. Mr.. Stenwick startled
his hearers by saying of c. A. John
son that he did not want to dig up
old sores in his private life. One
speaker said that he had been offered
a position by Johnson in the event of
his election but failed to state in what
way his holding the position would
be a disgrace to Mr.. Johnson's admin
istration. Not much enthusiasm was
evoked and the audience dispersed.

Such support is all the more appre-
ciated because voluntarily rendered.
Il deplore the fact that in some To-
calities a sentiment is attempted to be
created in favor of voting for one only.
This Is wrong and should be discour-
aged. Each elector should exercise
his full right of suffrage by voting for
three instead of for one only. II would
be well for the press to emphasize the
Importance of so doing. hope my
friends win disapprove any movement
in favor of asking the voters to sacri-
flee any portion of their elective fran
chise. Each voter will be urged to ex-
press through his ballot his honest
judgment as to the three whom he be-
lieves to be best qualified for the work
