There are yet two more advertising
cars for the Buffalo Bill and Pawnee
Bill shows to come to Fargo. One has
already been here.
According to the officials, Fargo is
remarkably free from the hobo element
just now, although lower Front street
has many new faces.
1t might be just as we'll for the peo-
pie of the city to see that their doors
are well locked when they leave their

new MACHINE AT
The POSTOFFICE
BIC CANCELLATION MACHINE TO
BE INSTALLED WITHOUT DELAY
is SELF FEEDER AND GREAT
LY IMPROVED OVER OLD MA
CHINE,

A new cancellation machine, to be
used for the cancellation OF letters, ar
rived this morning at the postoffice
from Brooklyn, ana will be immediate
ly installed in place Of the old machine
which has been in service since 1908.
The machine Is the product of the In
ternational Postal Supply Co, of New
York, one of the companies which has
just been awarded a contract by the
federal government to supply the post
Office department with machines of this
nature.
The new machine Is novel and inn
proved in every detail and one of the
greatest improvements over the old
machine used at the Fargo office and
in general use throughout the country
Is that 1t Is a self-feeder. This does
away with the services Of one man,
who, heretofore was kept especially for
the purpose Of feeding the machine
with letters ready for cancellation. The
company. which owns the machine, in
structs the postofice department to
place the machine entirely in the
charge of one man, who would have the
should be made responsible for its con-
slant running condition and mainte-
nance.
The new machine does not require
the services of any skilled mechanic. as
anyone who is capable of using a screw
driver and an oil -can-is capable of OPP
Grating 1t. The only caution stipulated
Is that haste often makes waste " and
frequently too hurried use will impede
its rapidity OF work, so enough time
should be allowed for the thorough,
systematic cleaning and fabrication Of
same. 1t is a machine that should al
ways be in working order and no ex-
cuse could possibly be made for break
age, as there are no delicate parts to
give out Unexpectedly. AS a conse-
quence no supply Of extra nor reserve
parts accompanied the machine in the
shipment.
Until this year the government has
generally been supplied with the can
collation. machines from the factory of
the American Postal Co. of Boston, but
upon a recommendation of the new in
vention of the International Co. of New
York, the postofice department at
Washington concluded to install the
Iatter's improved invention. None of
these machines is owned by the gov
eminent, as the companies producing
them merely rent them for period OF
years, and at the expiration of that
time they are returned to their fac
tories.

'SKIDOO' PUTS ON
GUM SHOES AGAIN
GIRL FAINTS WHEN SHE LEARNS
HER ESCORT HAS STOLEN Herr
WATCH - DETECTIVE DRAGS
TIMEPIEcE FROM CULPRIT's
POCKET.

Fargos star detective, "Skidoo" Hol-
ger, lined up a man in the police sta
tion Saturday night for stealing a
watch from girl the latter had taken
to the merry -go-round. The man was
Howard Stone of Dilworth. and while
at the pleasure machine with it's cir
cling horses and music box, the girl
came up to "Skidoo" and apprised him
of the theft.
The detective was not slow about
asking Stone for the girls property
and was told that it was at his hotel
at Dilworth, and later when "Skidoo''
suggested 10 go with him and get it,
Stone told him it was at the Rex hotel
in Moorhead. Upon the discrepancy
Holzer Immediately arrested the man
and escorted him to the police station.
On the way, Holzer reached into the
young mans pocket and drew forth the
girls watch, at the sight of which she
tainted in front of the Fargo Harness
Co.'s store on Broadway.
At the police station Stone was found
to have two watches on his person.
1t is probable that Stone will be held
to the district court on a charge of
petit larceny.

in place as possible and the fair will
be running in good shape.

After the program had been render
ed. all went to the banquet room,
where luncheon. consisting OF sand
wiches, Ice cream and cake. was
served by the young men and youns
ladies of the ward. The luncheon
over, the entire company was drawn
by sweet strains of music to the
amusement hall, where dancing was
INDUCED in until midnight.

vailed and all departed from the ies-
