Capitol Officers Dubious.
DAVIS NOT IN GRAND FORKS
Chief of Police Sullivan Says Beltra.
mi County Men Had Wrong Tip.

East Grand Forks, Mimi, Dec. 20.
Chief of Police P. J Sullivan de
clared once more that insinuations
which have been made against his
department relative to the supposed
escape of Mike Davis, the yeggman,
from a detachment of detectives,
Beltrami county authorities and at
torney general office attaches in this
city last September, are without
foundation and are wholly false.
''The officers under me, as well as
myself, did everything we could to
cooperate with the officials at the
time they supposed Mike Davis was
in East Grand Forks" the chief said,
land charges to the contrary are alb
solutely false. Mike Davis is no fool,
and it is not to be supposed for
minute he would come to East Grand
Forks, at the time he was said to be
here, for he is very we'll known
here"

Sixty Lynched During Past Year.

Chicago, ILL.,, Dec. 29.-(Spec-
!: iaD-The lynching record for
: 1911 shows a distinct though
: slight = improvement over the
records of previous years. The
number of persons lynched since
: January 1-sixty-is slightly
!; less than that of any other re-
: cent year. All but two of the
60 persons lynched were ne
groes. Of the fifty-eight negroes,
one was a woman. The crimes
charged against these victims
range all the way from insult to
criminal assault and murder.
Georgia leads with the most
: lynching Lynch
ings occurred in thirteen states.
All of these were Southern or
border States excepting Penn
sylvania, which furnished the
only instance of the year where
the victim was burned at the
stake.
Contrary to the record of pre-
vious years the majority of the
victims were not accused of
crimes against women. The vic
tins accused Of attacks on wom-
en- numbered eighteen, while
thirty-one were accused of muir
der. Two negroes were lynched
for insulting white women, four
for attempted murder, one for
threatening to murder, one for
highway robbery, and one for
persistent stealing. Two were
charged with plain assault and
one was being held in jail as a
suspicious character.
In several instances race riots
were reported in which both
whites and blacks were killed.
These are not included in the
record of the year.

EGG PRICES MAY DROP
Unless Cold Continues, Cost Decreas.
es With End of Moulting Season
Now Nearly Over.
CRANBERR1Es, PARsNIPs HIGH

Supplies of fresh lettuce, celery,
radishes, and onions will be plenti-
full in the Bemidji markets for the
New Years dinner III s..:-s>.
F. Country eggs are nosss selling at
IS cents a dozen; the storage var
iety at 80 cents. The dealers are
looking for a drop of ten cents a
case during the first weeks of Jan
uary, the moulting season being over
then, but the future movement of
the egg market depends largely up
on the weather. Continued cold is
likely to make eggs scarce and high.
Butter, the price of which was of
considerable comment two weeks
ago remains steady at ~ cents a
pound, and dealers give no hope for
a decrease for at least another
month.
Cranberries are becoming more
valuable as also are green things
shipped in from California and the
south. Cranberries now sell at Is
cents per pound.
Oranges, lemons, bananas, grape
fruit, and malaga grapes are to be
had, at prices which are about the
same as a week ago. No catawba
grapes are to be had, the sea-
son fofs this variety being now over
Cabbages, turnips, beets, carrots,
rutabagas, and potatoes are un-
changed in price and supplies
brought in by the farmers are plen-
tiful. Parsnips are high, selling at
60 cents bushel. The cost is due
to the difficulty of keeping this veg
etable during the winter months.
Christmas supplies of fancy clus-
ter raisins at 80 cents a pound are
still on the market and specially
packed figs at 10 cents for a -
ounce package.

Suicides at 500 Each.

A gentleman who lived number of
years in the city Of Annoy. in China,
told me that he could secure any num-
Der among the common people of that
town to commit suicide for 500 apiece.
As human nature is the same every.
where, he explained that as we may
find many who will lay down their
lives for their country and whom we
highly honor on that account. so an
ordinary Chinaman is willing thus to
die for the benefit Of his children in
order that they may worship him
afterward as an ancestor who died for
their benefit. This explains also that
noble reverence for their parents
which the Chinese display, because
their parents will soon he endowed
