A YOUNG GIRL

New Salem, N. D., May 20.-Afte1
suffering untold agonies for two
weeks, the eleven-year-old daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Steve Emmett, re-
siding 18 miles from here, died as the

The little girl was a mass of burns
from her knee to her waist as the
result of an accident two weeks ago,
when her clothing caught fire as she
was. working in the kitchen.
No physician was called until the
day before she died and then It was
found that pus had formed beneath
the burned skn and that the parts
on which she had been lying were
raw and bleeding.
The cords in her legs were drawn
up and stiffened 80 that the feet turn
ed back and could not be straight
ened. The girl had suffered until she
was wasted to a skeleton.

ELECTRIC POWER
FOR FARGO FARM

Fargo, n D., May 25.-The Stern
farm, located short distance from
this city, will be connected up with
! electricity. In fact, the entire farm
machinery will be run with electric
motors, making an innovation in pow
er for farming for the state of North
Dakota, and probably the entire north
west.
w. J. Price of the Fargo Plumbing
& Heating Co., has begun the work
of strengthening the wires from the
fair grounds to the county hospital,
be we'll lighted with electricity. The
contract for this was let last March,
but as the contractor could not Sc
cure the poles, the work could not be
done until now. 1t will take just 120
poles to complete the work, and sew
eral of the farmers in the vicinity of
the home will also have connections
made with their homes and outbuild-
ings.
The Yonkers farm will be connec-
ted up and so will the big Stern farm
in the same locality The Stern broth
ers have long desired to run their
separators with electrical engines and
they have decided to make the ex-
pertinent the coming season, and il
the system is successful, they will
connect their other farm machinery
in the same manner, and the expert
ment will be watched with consider
able interest as this will be the first
farm in the state to use electricity
in this manner. 1t will take forty
horse power motor to run big
thresher, and this will be the first to
be installed.
According to Mr.. Price, it will re-
quire four miles of wire to reach the
hospital and the various farms along
the line.

COURSE OF COMET
:Bv Associated Press.)


San Jose, Calif., May 2O.-Drector
w. w. Campbell, of Lick observatory,
said to day to the Associated Press:
"Halley's comet was observed at
Lick observatory this morning in the
eastern sky, the tail extending from
the horizon up to the milky way, max
ing it's length observed $50 degrees.
1t was only about one-third as in
tense as yesterday mornings tail,
from which it is judged that we have
either passed through or passed by
on the south side fully two-thirds of
the tail. 1t is impossible to deter
mine at this time whether we passed
through the southern side of the tail
during the daylight hours of yester-
day or the early hours of the evening,
when the sky was bright with moon
light, or whether We missed it alto
gether.
'Observations obtained on the first
few evenings in the western SKY may
supply the data required for settling
this interesting question. It seems
probable that we shall have passed
through the tail completely tomor-
row morning, and there win be no
trace of it In the eastern sky. but
this remains an open question"

Washington, May 2O.-With all the
testimony to be presented before it,
the Ballinger-Pinchot investigation
committee today took steps to bring
to a speedy conclusion the congress
sional inquiry which has been in pro-
gress for four months.
Two days next week-Friday and
Saturday-have been allotted the
lawyers to make their closing argu-
ments, when the public hearings will
end.
The attorneys then will have tif-
teen days in which to submit briefs
summing up their cases. after which
the committee will begin executive
sessions to weigh the mass of evil
dence which has been presented.
The prosecution" as the Pinchot
side of the controversy has come to
be known, began the presentation of
evidence on January 26 last and con-
cluded on March 18. Since that time
the committee has been engaged in
hearing the witnesses of Ballinger.

Both sides still have the oppor
tunity to add to the already bulky
record, papers and affiavits of Ger

Attorney Vertrees, counsel for Bal
linger, today put in the agreements
between CLAWS and w, w, Barr, a
land broker OF Seattle, to show that
CLAWS had a pecuniary interest In
obtaining timber lands from the gov.
erhmeht. It was the avowed pur-
pose of the defense" to show that
in this matter CLAWS used informa-
ton he obtained while in the employ
of the government.
Portions of the testimony at the
trial of the cunningham coal land
cases" also were presented by Mr..
Vertrees, who said it showed that
CLAWS and Special Agent Jones knew
there was nothing in the charge that
the Guggenheims were planning to
get control of the Cunningham claims
when they took the affidavits of the
Cunningham claims, and that CLAWS
and Jones deceived the claimants.
The attorney also saiu the testimony
bore out the contention made in the
Cunningham afidavits prepared by
Ballinger, that there was no agree
ment with the Guggenheims prior to
the location of the claims.

SELF CONFESSED MURDERER

lzE POSITION.
Story Of the Crime Retold In Court
Two Witnesses Examined Friday
Guard Being Kept Over Prisoner
Feeling Against Noah Running at
High Notch.

Minot, N. D., May 20.-(Special.)-
Laughing and joking, Robert Noah
known also as David NJ. Noah, con
fessed murderer of Chris. Johnson, a
North Dakota farmer, faced the jury
which will again pass upon his fate.
The jury was completed this after
noon and two witnesses were examin'
ed.. They were farmers who had
known Johnson for many years. Noah
faced them with the same bravado
that he met their gazes when they
asked him where Johnson was and
he cody told them that Johnson had
left suddenly for Sweden.
The testimony showed that Noah
had shot Johnson in the back of the
neck at the supper table. He called
Johnson's attention to picture of
his mothers hanging on the wall and
as the homesteader gazed upon it
he shot him in cold blood and then
opened a trap door and kicked the
body through the aperture. The
floor was freshly covered 10 escape
detection and Noah spread the report
that Johnson had left suddenly.
Noah began to sell off the personal
effects of Johnson. This aroused the
suspicious of the neighbors and they
began search. One day when Noah
was away, their, search resulted in
the gruesome find that resulted in
Noah's arrest. Noah is hardened
criminal with lengthy record.
Two men guard him constantly in
court. He is a powerful man with
british countenance.
The trial is proving to be perfume
tory affair, occasioned by grevious
errors of Judge Goss, who, during the
first trial, told the jury that in fixing
the punishment they could take into
consideration the demeanor of the
defendant.
The supreme court held this to be
a reversible error and during the
second trial Noah changed his plea of
guilty to that of not guilty.
Feeling runs high against Noah and
special care is being taken to see
that he is speedily tried and returned
to Bismarck. Noah was sentenced to |
be hung over a year ago.
