The Mayville normal football team
journeyed to Grand Forks Saturday,
Nov. 4, and there met the second team
of the university. The boys had the
pleasure of finding out what defeat
was for the. first time this season. The
Mayville boys were about twelve
pounds to the man lighter than their
opponents, and Of course, this was
against their chances, as was also the
fact that the U had twenty men on the
sidelines, only too anxious to get into
the game, which kept those in the
game hustling for their places. The
Mayyille team, however, was weak on
the defense. due to lack Of defensive
practise owing to scarcity Of candi-
dates. But they showed up well In
their team work and several times
made good gains through the heavy
u line. Our first touchdown was
made within the first minute of play
by McNair, who recovered the ball
from Stewards punt. The second
touchdown was made by Powers by a
spectacular eighty yard run around
tackle.

A review of the rapid populatiBg of shis country, through immigration, from it's early colonial settlement to the present, was given, with due tribute to each represented nationality. To the French, polish and social culture were ascribed; the Germans have imbued us with their love of education and music; the wit and humor of the Irish did much to sweeten up early New England sober ness, and their love for ut-of-doors sports improved the nation physically {; the musical ability of the ScandinA- vians is evidenced in all our large or chestras.

 Andrew She'll, who, it is alleged, shot Edward Kellner whila riding with him in Somers Saturday after nooD, WAS before Justice Francis M Charter in Ellington Monday after noon and was charged with assault and attempt to kill He waived ex- animation and was bound over under bonds of $5OOO for appearance at the April term of the Holland county superior court She'll was walking from the Stephenson farm in Somers to Ellington and was evertaken by Kellner, who is employed by Mrs. Rose Stephenson She'll asked Kellner for ride to Ellington. Kellner al- lowed him to get into the carriage. They had gone but short distance, when She'll took revolver from his pocket and placing it against the head of Kellner, fired. The bullet fatsened itself and did not cause fatal wound, but rendered the man unconscious for sometime. He fell out of the wag ln. and Shell left him there near the David Wadsworth place, driving the wagon to Ellington, where it was re- covered later by Deputy Sheriff John W. Watkins of Ellington. Neigbbors went to- the assistance of Kellner, W ho was removed to his home in Rockville as soon as he recovered consciousness, where he was attended by Dr. Bean. It was thought when the man was found in the road by somers people that he was fatally injured, but an examination showed that the bullet had fattened itself against the skull and was easily removed, and it is ex- peoted he will be we'll in a short time. Just what caused Shell to attempt to kill Kellner is not known, but it is rumored that both got into an argu- ment a few days ago over a woman, and this ia thought to be the reason for the shooting.
