Well it would take 1900, to pay

that out of the 81 800, and still build

YEGGMEN INVADE
south DAKOTA

Aberdeen, S. D., Sept. THE an
nual crop OF yeggmen, which appears
with the threshing season in the Da-
kotas, is in evidence in Aberdeen. The
murder of an unknown thresher hand
on Saturday night was followed by a
hoIdup, burglary and a theft on Sun
day night. H. Mano, a stranger who
arrived from the west on Saturday
night, was held UP Sunday night and
robbed Of $11 in money and a watch.
The same night c. P. owen of Coun-
ell Bluffs, Ia, while asleep in a lodging
home, was relieved of Sc, his watch
and pocketbook. A number of vaIu-
able papers were thrown under a
table in the room. Also on Sunday
night, the drug store of H. f. Scott
was entered and IS or Sc in small
change taken. In neither case was the
perpetrator OF the thefts captured.
There is still no evidence leading to
an identification Of the man who was
found murdered along the Milwaukee
railroad track southeast of Aberdeen
on Sunday morning. The authorities
believe that when the news of the
murder spreads and some thresher-
hand fails to make his appearance. in
quiries will follow which will at least
supply a clue to the name and resi-
dence of the man who met so untimely
fate, even If his murderer is not
found. In the meantime, all suspicious
characters are made to give an ac-
count of themselves and every effort
Is being made to run the murder af-
fair in July of 1909, and who worked
up much of the evidence leading to
the conviction and execution of Emil
Victor for the murder of the Christie
family and young Michael Ronayne, is
in charge of the present case, but has
very little to work upon.
The coroner's inquest over the body
of the murdered man will be held this
afternoon.

MoHALL IN THE RUNNING.
Candidacy for Seat of RenviIIe coun.
ty, Formally Announced.

Mohall, N. D.. Sept. 7.-Mohall has
announced it's candidacy for the per-
rlanent county seat OF Renville coun-
ty. A preliminary organization was
perfected by the election of an execl-
tive committee and headquarters will
be opened at once.
Mohall contends that 1t is the best
town in the Mouse river loop as to
number Of inhabitants and assessed
valuation. In the campaign for coun-
ty division Mohall citizens expended
over $4,000 and rode over 200, 600
miles. When division came. it only
took in twenty-four of the townships
comprised in the old original county.
but there Is a movement to submit
to the voters OF the west three rows
of townships of Bottineau county to
be annexed to Renville county, which
would make it one of the richest cuun-
ties in the state. with Mohal exactly
the geographical center.
The town of Mohall has seven ele-
vators, six churches and q high school
which Is surpassed by none in the
Mouse river loop. There is not a va
cant house in town.

AUTO PARTY HAS
NARROW ESCAPE

Beach, N. D., Sept. IA serious ac-
cident happened at the Yopp crossing,
between the city and the fair ground.
"A party OF gentlemen were out for u
ride in @. Fl. Moulton's auto, and when
nearing the crossing saw a freight
approaching rapidly. Mr.. Moulton,
thinking that he had time enough to
cross ahead of the train, opened up
the machine and made 1t all right.
But the crossing is high one and
the bump was terrific, especially to
the occupants of the rear seat Harry
Heath was tossed eight or ten feet
in the air and clear of the machine.
He was picked up unconscious, with
his right ear nearly torn off and his
body mass of bruises He was
brought back to town and his injuries
attended to, then taken home, where
he Is now suffering from a badly
wrenched back. The engineer saw the
occurrence in the rays of his head
light and stopped the train, thinking
that somebody was surely killed.

Chas. Logan, proprietor Of the City

the form tof a hen which lays po-

Gently he purchased crate Of

the bottom of the crate had been
reached the cook began to dig out
potatoes from the compartments
