$1,000 IS ADDED
TO THOSE REWARDS
ATTORNEY MARDEN HAS HAND.
ED OVER TO CLERK McUsREY
A COOL THOUSAND TO BE ADD.
ED TO THE FRANkHAusER
REWARD CASE.

Atty. Charles S. Marden, one of the
attorneys for the claimants in the
celebrated Frankhauser reward case.
handed over today to Clerk McCubrey
OF the district court, draft for $1,000
from the Marine Insurance CO.. Ltd.
London, England, the money being the
amount of the reward offered by that
company which the latter had offered
Tor the arrest and conviction of the
persons connected with the robbery
OF the Oriental Limited train of the
Great Northern, near Cut Bank, Mont.
In 1903, for which Frankhauser is now
serving life sentence at I4eavenworth.
The insurance company named had
insured the safe transportation of the
$4,000 in money which was stolen
from the express car. This particular
reward has not figured in the amount
OF the rewards which several claim
ants have been battling for in the
courts and which is still pending. The
English company, it appears. preferred
to take the course they have taken
rather than pay out the money to
someone and then perhaps find later
they had disbursed to the wrong party
or parties.
In common parlance the $1,000 is
now in the "jack-pot" and will go pro
rata with the other rewards. as d.
rected by the courts.

May day luncheon at her home on
Eighth street south, yesterday. About
thirty-five ladies of Moorhead and
Fargo responded to invitations to the
prettily arranged affair which was
given on the porch in true May-day
style which was heated and screened
for the comfort Of the guests. The
color scheme for the decorations was
blossom pink and apple green, and
deftly entwined in the floral arrange
ment were pink roses in profusion.
The guests were seated at small tables
and the place cards provided readily
the subjects for conversation the re-
verse side being devoted to the pro-
gramme which followed the discus
sion of the luncheon menu. The en-
opened with the reading
by each guest, from her place card. q

tributed two vocal selections. oh, That

lightful affair and the guests were
most profuse in their expressions of
appreciation TO Mrs. Nye for an after
noon that will not soon pass from
their memories.

MANY BANDS FOR
U. T.CONVENTlON
MUSICAL ARRANGEMENTS BEING
MADE ON AN ELABORATE
SCALE - GEO. COMPTON IN
cHAReE-ARRANeEMENTs FOR
LADIES PROGRESSING NICELY.

Plans are being held on a large scale
for the musical arrangements for the
U. G. T. convention. which is to be
held here June 8, and 10 Geo. H.
Compton of the Stone Piano Co. has
charge of this department, and as the
plans develop they promise great
things in the line of music.
There will probably be about seven
or eight bands here at that time. Be-
sides DR.. Putnam's forty piece band,
those from Duluth, Crookston, Grand
Forks, st. Cloud. st. Paul and Mime
apolis will probably be among the
sllmber. Some OF the band features of
the convention will be a Rube's band
parade, which will be taken from DIR.
Putnam's Co., and DR.. Putnam's If
teen piece orchestra will play for the
ball and also furnish music for the
ladies during their reception and
euchre party.
Bands will be stationed along the
street at convenient intervals for the
street masquerade, which has been
planned for Thursday night Of the
convention. This will probably be
fashioned after the manner of the last
fire festival. Putnam's band will be in
commission from Wednesday after
noon, June z, and will meet the aft
ernoon train upon which the other
bands will arrive.
Mrs. w. e. Hunt, who has charge
of the entertainment for the ladies, has
part of her plans made out for the con-.
vention, although no official pro-
grammes have been printed as yet.
The ladies headquarters Will be at
Stones auditorium, and the ladies are
asked to go there Immediately upon
their arrival and register their names
and stopping place, so that no one
will be left out Of the gaities, which
have been planned for them.
Thursday afternoon, June 8, the
ladies will be entertained at a box
party at the Orpheum, and afterward
about thirty autos will be on hand to
take them about the city. Thursday
evening the street masquerade will af-
ford sufficient entertainment. Friday
at o'clock there will be a luncheon
and reception in Stones auditorium,
and afterward euchre will be played by
those who care to play. Others may
entertain themselves at the ball game
or any other way they desire. Friday
evening there will be a ball given I'M
der the direction of Charles Rogers,
probably at the Masonic temple.
On Saturday morning the big par
ade will take place and about 100 auto
mobiles will be on hand to carry the
ladies. Other arrangements for Sat-
urday have not been made public This
programme will no doubt be changed
in many respect, and further details
will be added. A good time is assured
at any rate.

MOORHEAD MAN
CATCHES THIEF
JOE KNAPP WILL TESTIFY IN
REGINA AGAINST JACK WIN
FIELD, ALIAS KID TRAILoR, AL.
LEGGED CATTLE HUSTLER
TRIAL SCHEDULED FOR MAY "a.

Much interest is being felt locally
in the trial of Jack Winfield alias
kid" Traitor, on charge of horse
stealing, which is scheduled to come
off at Regina, province of Sasketche-
wan, Canada. on May "a.
Joe knapp, formerly of this city, will
be one of the principal witnesses for
the northwest mounted police in this
case. Winfield is accused of "rustling'
horses over the Canadian line and sell
ing them in the United States.sS
On July 5, 1909, Winfield came to
Knapp's shack near Williston, N. d.,
and asked permission to keep his
horses there over night. He and his
men then went to a neighboring empty
shack to remain over night. Mean
while, young Knapp, who is not more
than a boy, drove eighteen miles to q
telephone and gave the information to
the sheriff, which caused the sheriff to
arrive at the Knapp claim the next
morning. When Winfield arrived at the
pasture the next morning for his four
horses, four deputy sheriffs covered
him with rifles and he was taken into
custody. He served year at Mandan
in the state reformatory for horse
stealing, and was then arrested by
the mounted police and taken to Can
ada, after a fight against extradition.
Young Knapp, who is brother Of
C. H. Knapp of the local police depart
ment, left Moorhead five years ago to
take up a claim near Williston. He
will prove up on this land within the
next few days and will then go. to Re-
gina to attend the trial, after which
he will return to this city to engage in
business.

Chicago Gossip.

Chicago, May 2.--As the bull leaders
have taken In the cash wheat it
looks to those who have been bearish
as though May shorts will have to
cover at higher prices. The technical
situation being bullish, but from a
cash handlers standpoint 1t is bearish.
Elevator people believed in red and
hard winter wheat although they have
been holding the hard winter at a
premium they have been unable to get
any bids and delivered it out because
of the disappointing demand. There
has seldom been year OF late when
Chicago elevator people had as much
choice wheat put away for the milling
trade which has not materialized as
during the past winter. The Armour
interests sent out bullish messages on
July early in the day, but an advance
Of ga cents was all the crowd were
able to raise, which was lost in the

Eusninn Grain Letter.

Chicago, May 2.--wheat: There is
absolutely no demand whatever for
cash wheat. Weather throughout the
spring and winter wheat belt continues
favorable. Crop outlook could hardly
be better. Trade was very light all
day and mostly all of a local profess
sional character. Some covering in
Nav by shorts caused a sharp advance
In that future. This induced some COW
erlng in the July and September. The
news. in general, is bearish, but local
traders are afraid to short the market
on account Of the congestion in the
Nav delivery.

NORMAL GRADS GIVEN CREDIT
The State University Faculty Has
Taken Action.


AT recent meeting of the faculty
of the college of education OF the state
university it was voted that hereafter
graduates of the normal schools in
Minnesota would be given credit for
two years school work in that college.
Heretofore the normal school grad
yates have been given credit for one
year in the academic college and
about a year and a half in the college
of education.
This will be of great advantage to
both institutions-the normal and the
university. 1t makes of the normal
schools Junior colleges, which will fit
students far better for admission into
the university than the graduates of
the schools.
Advanced graduates of the normal
schools. If they so desire, can get
teaching positions and earn money to
pay university expenses. Two-year
university students have no profession
or occupation with which to earn
money. The action taken means de-
cided advantages to both the normals
and the university as 1t will stimulate
more students to the former and more
advanced pupils to the latter.
