TWO MULES BURNED
TO DEATH IN BARN
Barn Occupied by Klein Grocer Co.,
in Rear Of Their Store, Destroyed
by Fire.

Last Friday night about half past
eight O'Clock the barn In rear OF tine
Klein Grocer Co.'s store was de-
stroyed by fire. The city fire COM
pany was out in time to prevent the
fire from spreading to the ware
house, which extends to within a
few feet OF whore the barn stood,
and to other nearby buildings. The
flames spread rapidly and burned
fiercely, and those who arrived at
the scene first failed to get the door
open, and the grocery company's
two delivery mules, which were kept
in the barn, perished in the flames.
Besides the mules 800 bales of straw,
1900 pounds Of hay and some grain
were destroyed. The barn belonged
to Mrs. j. NJ. Karsch. The loss is
estimated at between $50 and $500,

HUNG" JURY AGAIN.

The case of Arthur Pruitt, charged
with murder In the second degree
for the killing Of Claude Mitchell on
December "A, 1910, at TaylortOwn,
which was in process of trial as We
went to press last week, again re,
! suited In "hung" jury. We are
informed that the last vote of the
jury, as to whether II would acquit
the defendant or "hang' the jury,
stood eleven for acquittal and one
for "hung" jury. This case was
tried at the last August term OF
Court and also resulted In failure
to agree.
The States evidence tended to
prove that Prultt had had n fight
about $3.50 p. III. at or near Buckley's
store, and that Mitchell had Sc
verely wounded Pruitt some twelve
or more times on the head with
"knux;" that after this encounter
Pruitt went home, about seventy
five yards east of the place OF the
first fight, and secured his pistol
and followed Mitchell some lG0 feet
or more and shot him.
The defendants evidence tended
to prove the same state of facts as
to the first fight, but showed that
Pruitt on securing his pistol started
TO look for some one to take him to
doctor to get his wounds dressed,
and that Mitchell advanced toward
Pruitt and knocked him to his knees
and clinched him around the neck
Pruitt, believing his life was In dan
ger, shot Mitchell twice, either of
which shots would have inflicted a
mortal wound.
The Instructions of the court were
for murder in the second degree and
manslaughter in the fourth degree,
and for self-defense.
Prosecuting Attorney Boyer aud
II. G. Tucker represented the State,
and the court appointed b. II. Mar
bury aud J. Il. Burks to represent
the defendant.
After the jury was discharged the
case was continued to the May term,
1911.

HOCKEY PLAYERS
MAY Go ABROAD

New York, March S.-If credence can
be placed in reports that have drifted
across the Canadian border, an attempt
may be made this year to introduce the
game of ice hockey in Europe. There is
possibility that Ottawa may make the
trip at the close of the Canadian sea
son. According to the rumor, it is
planned for the Dominion seven to ex-
plot the game In all the principal Kinks
of the old world.
The Ottawa Hockey clubs executive
has received an offer to take his team
to Europe as soon as the season closes
across the border. At pr sent the feast
bility of such a project is being looked
into thoroughly by the Canadians. They
are decidedly in favor of it. If the
proposed tour is at all practical, it is
understood that Ottawa will accept
London, Paris and Berlin are included
in the itinerary. However, there are
other European cities boasting ice
Kinks, and If anything comes of, the
project they would no doubt be visited
The plan is to have the Ottawa play
ers take part in two exhibition matches
a week at the different cities. Fifteen
players would have to be taken in that
event 1t is said that the old world
promoters have agreed to finance the
tour in liberal style and are enthusiast
tic over the chance of seeing the Can
adian national game incidentally. Ber-
Inns ice rink is 400 feet long and 200
feet wide. The one drawback to the trip
is that the players might not be able
to get leaves of absence for so long a
time. AT any rate, the Ottawa manage
ment Is seriously considering every
phase of the proposition before accept
ance.

u. HIGH CLAIMS
CHAMPIONSHIP

Practically unheard of in state has
ketball circles, the model high school
of the state university broke into the
-limelight claiming the eastern high
school championship.
In an article published in another
column in this department, the preps
at the university made known their
claims, concluding with the statement:
Until WEI are beaten. we hold the
eastern high school basketball cham
pionship."
That makes 1t nice-for the props.
Working on that theory state cham
pionship teams can be dug up at every
flag station in North Dakota.
When the schedule OF the Fargo
high school was made, all teams with
any standing whatever were given
a chance. The eleventh hour policy
of some teams to wait until the day
before the proposed game, in making
arrangements, don't meet with the
approval OF the Fargo management.
It is the desire of the local high to
complete the entire schedule. before
the season opens.
In the vernacular of the curbstone
sport" the youngsters at the or"
might be advised to get a rep" be-
fore breaking out in such a preten-
tious manner.

GLIDDEN TOUR TO
TAKE in SOUTH

With the automobile show period
drawing to a close, interest in motoring
centers around the coming events over
road or track and the prospect is better
than ever before. The schedule of
events sanctioned by the American Au-
tomobile association is comprehensive
and varied with ample assurance that
the west is to secure a full proportion
of the events.
Chief in interest at this time is the
annual endurance run, or the Glidden
Tour.
This year the south will be recog-
nized for the first time, as was pre-
dicted in these articles, indicating
that motoring is fast becoming a factor
in the turpentine and cotton belt. as
well as in the corn and cattle country
traversed last year. However, the west
is not to be neglected for Kansas, Ok
lahoma, Nebraska, Iowa and Illinois
will be crossed by the tour, which will
hTst wind it's way through Kentucky,
Tennessee and Arkansas, to say Moth
ing of Texas.
Announcement has been made by the
new chairman of the touring commit
tee, Sam Butler, officially naming the
Chalmers as the car which will do the
pathfinding, and the old reliable Dad
Lewis, who for years has mapped out
the routes, has instructed the Detroit
concern to have its pathfnding car
ready to start from Cincinnati April /.
The route, it is understood, will be
through Lexington. Louisville, Bowling
Green, Nashville. Memphis, through Ar
Kansas, and southwest to Dallas and
Fort Worth. The return will be
through Oklahoma and Kansas to Kan
sas City, st. Joseph possibly to Omaha.
On the way east the towns touched
are likely to be, Des Moines and Daven-
port, Iowa; Rock Island and Moline,
H., with the grand finale at Chicago.
The distance is said to be about 1900
miles, about 500 less than the route of
last year. The writer has travelled over
most of the roads in question and found
them diversified enough in character to
bring about an excellent test of the
touring qualities and stamina of any
grade of car, from the light roadster
to the high powered touring car.

FOOTBALL Tests
MADE BY stage

Three new experiments involving
line plays were tried by the Arkansas
football squads recently under the in
structions of Coach Stagg. The players
were sent through severe scrimmage
and the men worked as hard as in the
middle of the football season.
The work opened with test of the
experiment forbidden the ends follow
ing up a punt approaching nearer than
within Ave yards of the man receiving
the ball. As a result of this II was
shown that the man playing safety is
given far greater opportunity to return
the punt or, IL he is a speedy runner
he is given ample chance to dodge the
ends for big gains.
1t will tend to make the play more
open. but Coach Stage seriously ques-
tions the advisability Of adopting this
suggestion on account of the amount of
wrangling certain to follow, because it
will be utterly impossible to measure
the five yards accurately with the eye,
and the runners will continually APP
proach too close to the safety.
Another suggestion, compelling the
back to abstain from pushing the man
with the ball until it has hit the line
also proved unsatisfa Glory. The result
of this play was that the entire attack
centered at this point and 1t simply re-
vived the old mass formations which
ii we'd so dangerous in the past.
1t was also suggested that the neu-
trail zone be done away with. This also
proved to be without merit 1t was
found to result in fierce rushes and
made the play no more open and did
not detract any from the danger of
injuries
Following the test Of these plays the
men were put through some heavy
scrimmaging, testing the rules Stagg
first outlined on his arrival here. The
forward pass and plays involving it
were most used Every day serves to
convince Coach Stagg that his sugges-
ton providing that the ball always be
in play following a forward pass is
the most advisable feature advan ced
since the forward pass came into exist
ence. 1t makes the play doubly more
open and keeps the men on the jump.
This play opens wonderful field for
the quarter back and numerous plays
can be built around it. But it calls
for two things that are imperative. ac :
cording to Stage. These are speed
and endurance.
Were the Arkansas players not in
mid season condition they probably

University North Dakota. March g.
To The Fargo Forum: -,u will please
publish the following in your paper:
To Fargo High School: In The
Fargo Forum of about one week ago,
you claimed the eastern high school
basketball championship.
We, the Model high school of the u
of N. D., are more justified in claiming
the, title, as we won over the Grand
Forks high school by a score of 80 to
90, while YOU beat them only by a
small margin.
You have no excuse to make that a
game was not arranged, as we wrote
you asking you to accept our terms,
or to state your terms and have our
acceptance.
Since no game has been played, the
only just way to settle the dispute is
by comparative scores.
Until we are beaten, we hold the
eastern high school basketball cham
pionship. Yours truly

JAMESTOWN wins
FROM GLENDALE

jamestown. N. D., March Sal
though both teams were severely taxed
physically by the recent hard fought
game in Glendale. the contest here
last night between the basketball
teams of the Jamestown college and
Glendale proved fast throughout, the
home boys winning 80 to "a. In the
game last week Glendale won on it's
own floor and the managers said at
the close of tonights game that the
tie would doubtless be played off soon.
Stephens, the right forward and
coach of the Glendale team, played a
remarkable game for the visitors
showing fine floor work and good
judgment in shooting baskets. A large
share of the losers score was due to
his playing. Severn and Merry, OF the
home team. played a fine all around
game.
