ANGRY BULL KILLS MAN.
Beast Rolls and TrampIes on Farmer
Death Relieves Suffering.

East Grand Forks. = Being struck
In the back by an angry bull, after
which he was rolled on, no one knows
how many times, August Worden,
prominent farmer living at Bygland,
about 10 miles from here, received in
ternal injuries from which it was i'm
possible to recover, death relieving
him OF his suffering few hours later.
Conscious to the last, Worden was
able to give details of the awful acci-
dent.
While walking through the pasture
he was suddenly struck in the back
and thrown to the ground. The beast
then laid on the man, holding him
prisoner under it's great weight for a
short while, after which it would get
up and repeat the performance. Aged
60 years, Worden was unable to do
anything to save himself and finally
had to lie on the ground and be rolled
around at will He was finally rolled
under a fence, where he lay, unable
to get up or summon help from home,
about 30 rods away, until his brother
discovered him. He leaves a large
family.

'PROHIBs' QUIT OP1|oaISTs
"DRYS" IN ANNUAL BANQUET DE-
CLARE THEY WILL ALONE.
Defeat of Option Cause in Legislature
Said to Be Basis of
Action.

Minneapolis, MINI. - Parting of
the ways of the county optionists and
the members of the Minnesota Prohibi-
ton party came at the fifteenth an
nual banquet of the party, held in the
courthouse assembly hall. The split
between the adherents of county op-
tion and of statewide prohibition was
forced by the failure of the county
option bill at this session of the legis-
lature, and the last tie binding the two
factions of the enemies of saloons and
the liquor traffic together was cut
when Charles ]. Hall, Los Angeles,
speaking authoritatively for the execu-
tive committee of the party in Mime!
sofa, announced to the 500 Prohibition
lists in the audience that from now
on the county optionists would receive
no help from their party and that the
two had parted, never to be reunited
in this state again.
The announcement of Mr.. Hall, made
after consultation with w. G. Calder
wood and ]. d. vEngle, delegates to the
national convention from Minnesota,
brought great applause from his audi
tors. While it was received with some
surprise, different members of the
party declared that such action had
lonE been contemplated by the leaders
of the party.
Option Defeat Behind Decision.
The defeat Of the county option bill,
supported by all Prohibition members
of the legislature, settled the matter
definitely at the time Of the roll call
on the bill in the legislature, two weeks
ago.
From now on the strength of the
party will be concentrated on con-
stitutional amendment prohibiting the
sale of liquor. To that end over $500
was subscribed by members of the
party. A direct fight in every county
of the state will be made in the cam.
paign to be waged in 1912. No help
from county optionists will be asked
or given.
w. G.. Calderwood presided at the
banquet. Over 500 men and women
filed the hall and scores were turned
away. Rufus P. Morton, state repre-
sentative, was toastmaster.
Miss Rozette Hendrix, late presi.
dent of the w. c. T. u, followed Mr..
Hall with an address on "The Wom-
ans Way" outlining the work of that
branch of the anti-liquor fight. H. J.
Burgstahler, University of Minnesota,
spoke on Young Men for War;" and
1. M. Kalnes, editor of the Starbuck
Times, spoke on "The Prospect" ],
