BOTH SENTEN nee and FINE
FOR Ex- TREASURER BlckF0RD

A dispatch from Washburn October goth
said: Judge W. C. Crawfordof Dickinson
this morning denied the motion OF
attorneys for G. l.. Bickford, former
state treasurer. who as found auilty of
embezzlement, for q new trial, and
passed sentence upon the ~ex-treasurer
as follows:
The sentence of the court is that the
defendant be imprisoned in the state
p%enitentiary at Bismarck for an indie
terminate term from one to three
years, commencing at II O'Clock noon
of this day, and that he be fined 500,
and costs of this action, the costs be-
ing taxed at $500. the total fine
amounting to. $509. The defendant
stands committed until the sentence of
the court is complied with.
The attorneys for the defense imme-
diately filed a notice of appeal to the
supreme court and bail bonds were
fixed in the amount of $40, 600.
Bismarck, Oct. 20.-The arguments for
a trial in the case of the st ate VS.. G..
L. Bickford, found guilty of embezzle-
ment of state funds while treasurer of
North Dakota. was heard by Judge Craw-
ford of the Tenth judicial district, in
the chambers of the supreme court at
the state house yesterday afternoon.
At a trial in Washburn some months
ago Bickford was found guilty of en-
bezzling 49, 50 of state funds after a
long and hotly contested legal battle. A
motion was at once made for q new
trial and judgment on the verdict was
deferred pending the motion. After
several delays the argument was made

the state.
In the meantime Mr.. Bickford has
been out on bond. The defendant was
formerly a banker of Bowbells, and
served one term as state treasurer. He
was q. candidate before the primaries
for b second term, but was defeated.
Mr.. Bickford paid back all the money

WELLS that May CAUSE
DEADLY TYPHOID fever

Ain ost any community in which
wells have been drilled can boast of a
number of combination dug and drilled
wells. The owners congratulate them
selves on their wisdom in utilizing an
old dug we'll fifteen, twenty or thirty
feet in depth. and drilling through the
bottom of this to a good flow of water.
The cost of drilling that twenty or thirty
feet has been saved. certainly an econ
omy worth considering. As a matter of
fact, this combined dug and drilled well
is a particularly dangerous type. 1t may
readily breed malaria fever or even ty-
phoid fever, which is is more prevalent
in the country than in the overcrowded
cities, in spite ofs.the pure water supply
of nearly all farming sections. Such a
we'll is all the more dangerous because
it is fancied to be safe. Although the
water encountered by the deep we'll may
be perfectly pure at the start, contami-
nation may take place almost immedi-
ately by the entrance, especially after
rains, of seepage water into the open
we'll and thence into the casting of the
drilled we'll. The remedies are obvious.
Either the casing should be carried to
the surface of the outside ground, or at
least above the highest level ever
reached by the water, or the open we'll
should be converted into q water-tieht
system by applying a thick coating of
cement ver both sides and bottom.

The Smallest Navy Yard.

If Secretary Meyer carries out his in
tention to abolish the Sackett's Harbor
navy yard, located on bay Of Lake On
tario, Mrs. A. H. Metcalfe, the only
woman navy official connected with the
United States navy, will be thrown out
of job. Mrs. Metcalfe succeeded her
late husband in this office in March, 1906,
and she is not only commandant of the
yard, but captain, engineer officer, head
of the bureau of construction and repair,
paymaster, commandant of marines, and
ordnance officer as well; in fact, she is
the only employe of any kind connected
with the yard, which is the smallest of
its kind in connection with our navy, but
noted for two historic events. 1t was
there that the hulk of the old New Or
leans, a ship that was never finished,
