SANTA ROSA, July 4.--What is de-
clared to be a conspiracy to injure and
harass James Nelson, proprietor of the
petrifled forest on Mark West creek, is
being unraveled by the local authori-
ties.
Some time ago Martin Bishop was ar
rested and paid $50 fine for killing a
deer out of season. A few days later
he gave information to the officers that
James Nelson had a doeskin In his pos
session. Nelson was arrested and
brought here for trial, but convinced
the oficers that he was the victim of a
plot
An investigation satisfied the officers
of the truth of Nelson's statements and
a warrant was issued for Bishop charg-
ing him with a felony in preparing
false testimony. He is in jail Dan
Hudson and Henry Swan, others said
to be involved in the plot, were charged
with the same offense and officers went
after them this afternoon.

There was a large gathering at

fashioned into spacious and
beautiful drawing-room and pre-

know the Usbornes are nothing
if not artists, and this is fain to
crop out and come to the front,
what time they would give their
friends an evening of delightful
hospitality.
There was choice music, vocal
and instrumental, the singing and
playing of Mrs. Norton Bobo and
Reynolds being very heartily ap-
preciated.
There were splendid views of
Honolulu, twenty years ago, pre-

were most beautiful and inter

Delicious refreshments were
served by the "little men and lit

did they run to their happy polite

perfect grace and gentle manner.

Monday next is Memorial DAY. Ths
day will be observed Id this city with
about the usual program. The pro.
cession to the Cemetery will START from
Hotel Pembina at 1890 sharp and pro-
ced to the Pembina river bridge where
the water will be decorated in honor
of the sailor veterans whose resting
place is beneath the waters in the
ocean bed. Thence the procession will
go to the cemetery where the ritual
exercises of the G. A. r. will be OBJ
served and the graves decorated.
The exercises at City Hall will oc-
cur in tbs evening on the arrival of the
train from the south. The tull program
is not yet complete but will comprise
music, reading of orders, Lincoln's
Gettysburg Address, and an Address
by Prof. Vernon P. Squires of the N. D.
University of Grand Forks. All
citiz ens, organizations, schools and the
public generally are not only invited
to join with the G. A. r. in the pro-
cession and decoration and other
observances of the day, but all should
feel that an invitation IS not necessary,
for the time has now arrived that the
proper celebration of this holy day is
beyond the powers of the small and
agedsremnant of the Grand Army, and
1t has become the duty of everyone to
take up and carry out the program
which means SO much to them and
their. children-and SO little to the
dead and dying veterans.
Prof. Squires is one of the best speak,
ers of the University corps and will
give fine address. We certainly hope
he will be greeted by a large and ap-
preciative audience.
In the country and many of the
towns there are no soldiers graves, but
there are many suitable and appropriate
programs and exercises which may be
carried out. The care of all the resting
places of the dead is one of these.
There are other "veterans'' besides
those who fought in the civil war. The
pioneers who laid the foundations of
this fair land in the Red River valley
had their battles-and were victors, we
reap the fruit. We should delight to
honor them by caring for their resting
places

six year old boy after the latter hac

his eye with q knife, but it got better
though the sight was impaired. Las,
TALL it began to pain him and as local
treatment did not make the desired I'M.
provement, this spring he was taken to
the hospital and it was decided that
while an operation might possibly
restore the eye, yet the risk would be
considerable in that it might also affect
the other eye, and as the only safe
method the diseased eye was removed.
The little boy is now on the road to
complete recovery, except the loss OF
one eye.
