); H.. DONATION AND LITERALLY

FE I. L. Rabsteinek has the honor of
being the first man in North Dakota

dition. Mr.. Blake has had many pa
thetic experience and says even in this

lish great good in this city and he
hopes to get such started here in the

The objects of this society are to pro-
vide effective means for the prevention
Of cruelty to children and dumb animals
and to instruct the people to be kind TO
these by the scattering of humane
literature and other methods While in
the city Mr.. Blake forbid the owners
of several crippled and emaciated horses

MIR. Blake appreciated very much.
Anyone wishing to give donations may
send their money to the State Auditor

C. F. Merry is up to his old game as
developments of the past week show.
At McHenry, N. D ,.he registered as
Charles Frederick Merry of Watertown,
N. D.. and enthused the people over
the Dakota Southern Ry. Co., which
he represented as a line running, north
via Sanborn. Hnnaford, MoHenry,
Warwick and Devils Lake, from which
point he claimed to have thought the
Farmers line. and would push ON into
Canada.
His victims in the locality Of Nc
Henry were grated for $1O0 each, dve
of whom were crying for help on Mon
day.
This is the same hot air line that
c. F. was running over the people
down around Lennon year ago last
October. 1t will be remembered that
he caught Dr.. John Of Hettinger. fUf
$100 and was arrested al his home in
Dickinson for the offense and taken to
the Adams county jail where he spent

was convicted, fined and sentenced in
the spring Of 1909, but be got stay
Of action and later the case was argued
in supreme court for a new trial. and
there you are.

to meet with general approval.

This week the Northern Pacific was
able to fasten the strong arm of the law
on two brakemen who had been sreal-
ing beer and both men were safely
lodged in Jail.
Joe Madiaan was taken before Just
ice A. P. Folsom on Monday when he
plead guilty to taking is bottles of
bee, shipped by freight to a party in
the city. He was given fine of $50
and 20 days in Jail. Madigan is a
young man who has worked for the
railroad at this point for six or eight
months.
A warrant was issued about the same
time for G.. W. Leng for taking an
express consignment of beer. He took
the shipment from the truck on the plat
form at the local station. Deputy
Sheriff Brown expected to serve the
warrant on Leng Monday evening on his
return from freight run west, but evil
IDENTIFY some one had given him q hunch
that something was likely to happen
and he is supposed to have lett the train
at Belfield. He was arrested q day
later at his parents farm south of Bel
field and Wednesday he drew a so day
sentence and $100 fine.
A Northern Pacific detective was here
several days looking up the evidence
and he found several acts which looked
bad for parties other than the two
arrested. The company has lost good
deal of merchandise in the past year
between Mandan and Glendive, but il
is presumed that the examples made
of Madigan and Lene, will serve as 8
check on this kind of theft.
A, number of employees have been
discharged.

RUSSELL CASE COSTS
TELEGRAMS FROM DICKINSON

AS sequel to the decision of Judge
Lawton that the claimant from North
Dakota is not Daniel Blake Russell, in
less than 48 hours William C. Russell
and his attorneys formally recognized
Fresno Dan as the long lost heir to the
Russell estate. VIM. Russell said he
knew from the first that he was his
brother and was glad to share his home
and fortune y ith him.
The following is the speech made by
Dakota Dan'' when he was being
carried away from the court house on
the shoulders of his sympathizers:
Friends, want to thank you for
believing in me during the past six
months. There may be a few of you
who do not believe that am Daniel
Blake Russell. son of the late Daniel
Russell of Melrose. and brother of
William C. Russell. AS God is my
witness l am the only Dan Russell and
the real one. My brother may deny me
but ! have the blood of the Russells
fl owing through my veins, and shall
prove it and be received into the Russell
family before l die
The Boston papers said that a cheer
went up from the crowd and much
handshaking followed. A crowd of
over 500 people followed him to his
rooms at the Commonwealth hotel.
Mrs. Dan" was full of courage and
she said her hubsand is filled with
a determination to remain in Bsoton
and fight the case to the end through
all the courts of the land.
COST OF CASE.
The following estimated figures have
been given in the case: Cost 10 res spond-
ents, $137. 800; cost to claimant, (Dan
RusselD. excluding attorneys fees. $47,- :
$50; reasonable fees for Attorneys
Simpson and Sheldon, $15,O00; cost
to Middlesex court, $5.34O. Contest
lasted 122 days; Lawton rendered
decision on April IL, stenographic record
includes lis volumes or 1863 pages.
The Boston Post of the 14th had the
following which will certainly an,use
Dickinson people and lead many to ask
the question who really did furnish the
funds for claimant?
Il am not only loser, but l am
broke, ," said Dakota DAM Russell 10
Post reporter last night in discussing
his present standing
''All that had saved-$22, OOO- has
been swept way. Years ago secured
grant of land in North Dakota under
the homestead plan of the United States
government.
''The value of the land jumped as
years passed and I sold tracts at big
figures.
when l started negotiations ia
prove myself a Russell Withdrew a
large amount from the bank. And
since then drew time aud time again.
1t was necessary, not only for my own
expenses but for certain lines of inquiry
which ! wished to have carried out.
Well. it is all gone. All can say
1s that the fight will in some way be
brought before the supreme court jury.
Then, am sure that my right to the
name of Daniel Blake Russell will be
proclaimed.

that Dan was leaving the city and

HOSPITAL
Means Considered for Institution
Adequate for 60 Patients. Com
mittee Favors Management
Under Sisters.

Under Sisters.
| Wednesday evening was regular Com
mercial Club night and the attendance
was good. President v. H. Stickney
presided and Secretary W. R. Everett
was also present.
The main object of the meeting was
to consider the report OF the hospital
committee. consisting of DR.. j. W.
Bowen, chairman of the Stark County
Medical association, DR.. G. A. Perkins
and DR.. R. H. Beach and for the Com
mercial Club, W. r. Everett, ]. H.
SERVER and DR.. G. A. Perkins. The
report was in favor of securing an up
to-date hospital, adequate for the needs
of Dickinson and the large country
tributary, and the unanimous conclusion
of the committee was that the Sisters
of one of the Catholic orders should be
placed in charge of the institution
when completed.
One member of the committee had
already seeli Rt. Rev. Bishop Vincent
Wehrle in regard to the matter and
while not receiving any definite PROM
Use. he felt sure tina, the gentleman was
favorable to the plan. In fact, the
bishop said that he would gladly take
the matter up with the proper parties
when he next visited St. Paul and
Chicago
Bishop Wehrle expressed the belief
that if hospital was constructed along
the line suggested that it should not be
too small. as that had been the great
mistske at Bismarck and Aberdeen and
many other places in the country.
The committe has proposition for
the Smith hospital and the only OBJ
lection seems to be the fact that it is
not fire proof building and further
that it would need some changes which
would cost quite little.
The committee thought that If a new
brick hospital was to be built it should
be large enough to accommodate forty
patients and they estimated the cost of
such structure to be S35, 1000. This is
about the cost of the new hospital al
Mandan.
The club was heartily in favor of the
project. Several of the members spoke
Of the great advantage such an institu-
tion would be to the city. 1t was thought
that if the right kind of encouragement
was shown there could be no question
about getting the needed help from
Bishop Wehrle.
The committee was continued with
the understanding that the various sites
and propositions therefor. would be
considered, together with the general
public sentiment for the establishment
of Sisters hospital, and that further
report would be submitted at the earliest
possible date. The committee will
seek further conference with Bishop
Wehrle.
1t is we'll known fact that Sisters
hospitals have always been made to pay
expenses. and there seems to be a very
kindly feeling for such an institution
at Dickinson. Good hospitals are an
absolute necessity and at the same time
they are great benefit financially to a
community. Patients are not likely to
60 to Bismarck, Brainerd or St. Paul if
they can be sure of adequate hospital
facilities at home. The matter should
receive the careful thought of every one
who is interested in the community.

Syndicate Of Dickinson Men Get
Contract for 16sections of Chice
Railroad Lands In Cannon
Ball River Country.

A Dickinson syndicate of men. headed
by J. H. Daily, find that they actually
secured Is sections Of the rich Northern
Pacific lands in the Cannon Ball river
country placed on the market few
weeks ago. The other members Of the
syndicate are A. II. .Arnett, W. [.
Richards, Geo. A, Senour and Wilson
Eyer.
These men made applications for the
lands at the time of the sale al the
general N. P. Office in St. Paul last
month, but they had to wait for Com
missioner Cooper to return from the
coast and approve Of the applications
before they felt absolutely certain that
they had the selections. The approval
came short time since and the local
men are feeling rather good over their
pun chases.
The land is along the new Northern
Pacific and Milwaukee branch lines a
few miles southeast of Mott, in the
Cannon Bal! country and is considered
the cream of the railroad grant proper
ties in Western North Dakota The
lands in this locality were taken off the
market q number of years ago and were
eagerly sought after when the company
announced the day they would be
offered.
The land was priced by the railroad
company from $3 to $6. so per acre for
grazing stuff and there was no bidding.
Employees of the road were given pref
erence right on lands classed as aeri-
cultural and this is where Mr.. Daily
could have come in on account of his
long service with the company, but
after looking the proposition up he
was quite as we'll satisfied with the
grazing lands.
The lands purchased by the Dickinson
men total. $40. 500, and there is no
doubt that the holdings will easily sell
for several times this amount inside of
year. Being grazing lands, there are
no restrictions as to cultivation. The
new branch lines will be ironed through
to the land within few months.
The getting of these railroad selec-
tions were full of interest. Many people
were, on hand. Ed. Mottershead of
Richardton was the first man to present
himself at the door at the general office
in St. Paul. He was associated with
Joe Lawler and S. B. Chapel, and was
there at 2 O'Clock in the afternoon and
waited until 8 O'Clock the following
morning and was; finally rewarded by
getting tag No. /. Geo. Beicigl was
a close second and held tag No. 2.
They had their meals brought to them.
A great many people went away dis
gusted and others offered to sell their
chance. etc. w. L. Richards repre-
sented the Dickinson men and while
the last man to 60 in at the end of the
two-days. rush, he got about what he
went after.
