to Miss Force Finally
COnsummated

Western Press.
NEWPORT, r. l., Sept. 9.-Colousl
John Jacob Astor and Miss Madeline
i. Force were married here this after
noon by Edwin S. Straight, retired
Baptist minister Of Providence.
The ceremony occurred at Beech
wood" the summer home of Colonel
Astor in this city. William Force of
New York. the brides father, gave
her away. Mr.. Straight resigned the
pastorate of small Baptist church
in Rhode Island many years ago and
has worked as carpenter since then.
The events of Friday clearly indi-
Gated the approaching wedding. Miss
Madeline Force spent yesterday morn
ing shopping in New York. She ar
rived home at noon and half an hour
later Colonel Astor drove up in his
big gray touring car This was his
first visit Of the day. Ordinarily the
colonel arrives before breakfast and
spends the day with his fancee. AT
1;15 p. m. Colonel Astor and Miss
Force and Mr.. Force, who had mean
while returned from his office, took
a taxicab. Colonel Astor announced
they were nerly going for drive
through tie park. They did take the
route through the park but it carried
them to the New York Yacht club at
Eighty-sixth street. Secretary Rob-
byn went into great detail to explain
the purpose of the trip on the Naoma.
The colonel and Miss Force and her
father were going to do some deep
sea fishing and perhaps some duck
shooting on Pecinic bay for a week
and they would be back in New York
on Monday or Tuesday, probably
Tuesday. "There will be no marriage
on this trip" said Mr.. Robbyn. "Of
that you may be sure. Don't worry.
Just rest easy until they get back"
PROVIDENCE, r. l., Sept. 8.--Thc
Rev Mr.. Straight was asked yester-
day il he would marry Colonel Astor.
He replied, Eyes; why not. Wouldn't
you?"
Mr.. Straight was not registered in
Rhode Island as a clergyman, it be-
ing some years since he held a pulpit,
but yesterday afternoon in the office
Of the registrars department he quail
flied again. The minister is now a
carpenter.
Lawyer Comstock had been in con-
ference with Mr.. Straight for some
time trying to overcome his scruples,
whatever they may have been. This
he did not succeed in doing until
Thursday night when the carpenter
clergyman changed his mind and Of
fered to do the job"
"Will you get $1,000?" was asked
and the answer came slowly: Eyes;
guess So" When asked II it was
worth the 81 900 to run the gauntlet
Of public criticism, he held up his
hands in defensive attitude. II

GREAT INTEREST
In POINT OF Law


Rolette, N. D., Jan. 24.-The supreme
court will have point of law of more
than ordinary interest to rule upon
when the Rolette county seat fight is
carried up. In the recent election
Rolla retained the county seat, al
though Rolette was successful in get
ting majority of the votes cast. Be
sides alleging the usual election irreg-
ularities, the RoIette supporters are
asking for the county seat on the
ground that majority of the vote cast
was needed by Rolette. This claim is
based on the provision of the state
laws which requires only a majority
vote to locate the county seat until the
county buildings have been made per-
manent
The contention of Rolette is that the
people of Rolette county have never
authorized the establishment of per-
manent court house or other buildings.
They allege that the present building
was gift to the county by the people
of Rolla, that it was accepted by a
majority of the board of county COM
missioners, and that this act cannot
give the required permanent county
buildings in the intent of the law. In
other words, the Rolette people claim
that the gift cannot deprive the ma
1ority whore the permanent county
buildings shall be located.

Aberdeen, s. D., Jan. 24.--Acquaint-
ances of Steve Skinner, former resi-
dent OF Aberdeen, who recently return
ed from residence of several years on
the coast, fear he has made way with
himself, and are prosecuting a search
for him.
Skinner used to conduct laundry
in Aberdeen, but several years ago he
went to the Pacific coast Six weeks
ago he returned here, apparently
down and out" and engaged in an
energetic search for employment,
without success. Last week a friend
"staked" him to a charcoal sadiron
outfit and sent him to Groton to cam
vass the town for the sale of the
iron. Skinner returned, greatly de-
pressed, having failed to sell single
article. The next day he borrowed a
shotgun from young man acquaint-
ance and left town, saying he intended
to go rabbit hunting. That was a
week ago, and no trace of the man has
since been seen. Before leaving he
told an acquaintance the latter could
make good money by taking out in
surance policy on his life, and this re-
mark, coupled with SINNERS frequent
Respondent utterances because Of his
inability to secure employment have
caused his friends great worry. They
tried to track him and discover his
whereabouts in that manner, but a
light fall of snow, after they had fol-
lowed his trail for several miles OBJ
liberated his footprints.

Boost for Richter.

Grand Forks Times: e. L. Richter,
who for the last three weeks has been
filling the position Of city editor on The
Times, returned to Larimore yester-
day. He was conscripted by The
Times and only consented to help
this paper out in an emergency and
was retained almost by duress.
During his stay in the city Mr.
Richter has not only made many
friends but has added considerable
to his reputation as a newspaper
man. He has the ability to distin-
guish real news from gossip, non
sense, immaterial happenings and sill
illness. He has another faculty pos
sessed by few newspaper men of say
ing in a few words what would or
dinarily be strung out over column.
These things attracted the attention
not only OF the local reading public
but throughout the state.
Mr. Richter covered the North Da-
kota Press association which was in
session in the city Friday and Sat-,
urday and the newspaper boys who
attended were enthusiastic in their
praise Of the clear and comprehen-
sive report.
The people of Larimore are for
tunate in having newspaper man as
able as Editor Richter and paper
as clean, progressive and newsy as

most any time a number of coyotes
may be seen feeding at It, within nice

would now be the possessor of a few

1. The respondents herein applied TO
this court for a writ Of certiorari in
this action. Counsel in opposition to
such application made certain state
ments and admissions as TO the nature
and effect of an application theretofore
made to the district court by respond
ents herein. Such statements and ad-
missions were acceded TO on the hear

ton of the court in relying upon the
statements and admissions so made on
the application for the writ of GER
