man MISSING
since SUNDAY
CHARLES THoLER, FARM LABOR
Err, BELIEVED TO HAVE GONE
INSANE WITH THE HEAT AND
sTRAYED AWAY TO UNKNOWN
PARTs-WIFE Is ANXIOUS.

Charles Tholer, farm laborer who
has been employed since seeding time
-at the Bowman farm, is missing He
left his home, wife and eight children
last Sunday morning, stating that he
was coming to Fargo, and has not re-
turned since. The last seen of him
was when he was driving away in an
old buggy to which was hitched
small bay mare.
His wife is exceedingly anxious and
has notified the local police depart
ment which has been making repeated
efforts to locate the missing man.
Tholer was an odd Fellow, and fellow
members of his lodge in the city have
been notified and a further attempt
will be made to find some clue as to
his whereabouts.
Mrs. Tholer Is OF the opinion that
her husband has become deranged
with overwork and the heat. She says
he was not a drinking man and was
of a serious turn of mind and seldom
If ever INDUCED in practical jokes.
Just prior to his departure last Sun
day, she asserts he complained of a
severe headache which seemed to an
noy him considerably. After repeated
inquiry along the way from the farm
to Fargo and in various other direc-
TONS no encouragement has been
given the searchers, as no one recalls
seeing him.
Mrs. Tholer's father, who resides in
Missouri, has been notified by the po-
lice department and advised to come
to his distressed daughters relief.

state Employment Bureaus.

The state of Minnesota operates
free employment bureaus in several
parts of the commonwealth. The an
nual report of this department of the
state government shows that in two
years 36,524 positions were obtained
for S7761 applicants at an average cost
OF forty cents for each position filed.
In the three principal bureaus, namely
in St Paul, Minneapolis and Duluth,
the cost of operation was only $14,-
600 for the two years. This result
appears to support the claim that 1t is
cheaper and better for the state to help
thus in securing work for the jobless
than to arrest them as Migrants or
send them on the road to various
charitable institutions by leaving them
to the tender mercies OF the private
employment agencies.

Tent Stolen.
A good story was told in town today
by a visitor from Perham The night
tof Independence day two Dutchnen,
travelling in a rig, with a tenting out
fit, struck camp a short distance from
Perham. In more ways than one the
two men demonstrated that they had
been doing little celebrating and aft
er supper they made all preparation
for turning in. They lay dow and for
the sake Of protection, against unruly
invaders the men placed their rifle be-
tween them and feeling perfectly safe
they were soon deep in their slumbers.
When they awakened in the morning
the sun was broadly shining in their
faces and to their great establishment
and disgust they found that their tent
and belongings had been removed
from over their heads. They thought
at first it had been done for joke, but
later they discovered there was no
joke about it and all efforts to ind the
thieves were futile. &

Republicans in Conference.

Local republicans, today, were on
the qui vive for the results of the
meeting OF the state central committee
at st. Paul yesterday. There were
some conferences, with the governor
and some without, but all of the BUSH
ness was not finished because OF some
absences. The meeting was held at
the Merchants hotel and Congressman
Tawney was in the hotel but did not
sit with the committee. Opposition
has developed to the choice of Lieu
tenant Governor Smith as chairman
of the committee. For one, Candidate
Gordon, nominee for the second place
on the state ticket, thinks 1t would be
poor politics to put. Smith in the posi-
ton. Other candidates said they
would reserve their opinions until all
OF the committee had assembled. The

Grain Opinions.

Bartlett, Frazier Co.: Each sue
ceeding day seems to bring further
reliable confirmation of the damage to
spring wheat. This is making holders
of winter wheat very firm in their
ideas and keeps all natural selling
pressure of that nature off the mar
ket. Cur advice Is to buy wheat On
all recessions. We do not believe corn
is in any way suffering and therefore,
cannot advise it's purchase, but we do
not care to take the short side
Finley, Darrell & Co.: While we
continue friendly to wheat on all re-
actions as we experienced over night
we still feel that it will prove prudent
not to ignore good profits when offered
on feverish and substantial advances.
The action Of the corn market demon
strates that all sentimental backs
such as we experienced Wednesday
morning should be taken advantage of
to make purchases.
$. B. Chaplin & Co.: A broad active
wheat market is indicated with wide
swings in prices until the crop out
look is more clearly defined.
Logan & Bryan: Wheat Is a dan
gerous market In which to sell short
and the safe course seems to be to
pick the breaks to get in on the buy

crop Is In doubht. H w. & Co.
