HELD UP AND ROBBED, THEN
SHOWED OFF MOVING TRAIN
IS HIS EXPERIENCE.

Ardoch, N. D., Oct. 21.-victor Cord
hammer, threshing engineer whose
home is at Argyle, MIMI, was robbed
of $40 and thrown from the top of a
Great Northern box car. He had been
running threshing machine for man
near Grafton and came into Grafton
on his way home, but too late for the
passenger train. About II o CLOCK a
freight train pulled in and he boarded
it, climbing up on box car close to
the engine. When about four miles
from Ardoch two fellows came walking
along the cars, one of them carrying a
basket of grapes. Upon coming up to
him they sat down and commenced eat
ing the grapes and passed the basket to
him. Fro mthe questions they asked
him, he became suspicious, but when
one of them pulled gun and ordered
"hands up" there was nothing else
to do and hey went through him to the
extent of his earnings. At this time
the train was close to Ardoch and the
lights Of the brakeman could be seen
coming along the car from the end of
the train, when the thugs deliberately
pushed him off the train into the ditch.
That he escaped with his life is a
miracle. He struck on his head and
shoulders and lay stunned for some
time. By the time that he was able to
get ineo Ardoch the freight had gone.

COMMISSIONERS TO LEAVE FOR
GRAND FORKS FOR THREE
DAYS SESSION.

The North Dakota railway commits
sion will be at Grand Forks today,
where session of about three days
duration will be held. One of the mat
tiers to be considered is the recent Or
de rfor better train accommodations at
the town of Leeds. Travelling statesmen
sometime ago petitioned the commits
sion to have an order directing the
Great Northern and Northern Pacific
to stop one more train each day at that
station. A passenger visiting Leeds is
obliged to lay over in that town TWEEN
ty.two hours or make an expensive
drive. It is hardship to the COM
mercial travellers who desire to change
from one road to another in that town.
The railways asked for a hearing and
this will be had tomorrow. The Great
Northern company has requested the
railway commission to make tour of
inspection Of its lines in the state. As
the commissioners have been over all
the lines with the exception of few
branches they will confne their inspec-
ton to them.
Some time ago the Great Northern
built a spur track to a big gravel pit
near Reynolds and there are two gravel
companies doing business over there.
One company claims that it is being
Disseminated against and fails to Sc
cure cars to transport its product while
the other companies needs are looked
after. A hearing will also be had on
this.

SUITABLE WORDS ARE PLACED
ON BRONZE STATUE AT THE
CAPITOL GROUNDS.

There has been placed upon the ped
estal Of the statue in the capitol
grounds a bronze tablet, bearing the
words "Sakakawea-the Shoshone In
dian 'Birdwoman,' who in 1905 guild
ed the Lewis and Clark expedition
from the Missouri river to the Yellow
stone. Erected by the federated club
women and school children of North
Dakota, presented to the state, Octo-
Der, 1902
The artist, Leonard Crunelle, re-
quested that no inscription be placed
on the front Of the statue as it would
detract from the artistic effect. In
compliance with his wishes the tablet
is affixed to the east end of the pedis-
tai, which has been evened for this pur-
pose. The tablet is a beautiful piece
of lettering in bronze, from the factory
Of Paul f. Cabareg & Co., New York
City, and was placed under the super
vision Of Louis Carufel. It is bolted
into place and the interstices filed
with cement, making it firm part of
the pedestal, small tablet bearing
the artists name and the copyright
date, October IL, 1910, has been piac-
ed at the base Of the statue beneath
the papoose.
This completes the work of the state
on the foundation and pedestal, except
the placing Of shrubs and their care
through the years, and gives to the
capitol park unique ornament un.
surpassed in dignity of conception and
beauty Of execution.

M'INNEsKoLLAR NUPTIALs.

Without any advance notice to their
friends, Allie McInnes, one Of the
prominent young men of Devils Lake

equal prominence, were united in the
holy bonds of matrimony at $3.50 o.
clock Sunday evening, Rev. Clattenburg
of the Episcopal church saying the nup-
tial VOWS.
The ceremony took place at the Kol-
lar residence on Fourth street, only the
immediate family being present at the

was served.
Miss Grace Kollar. sister Of the bride,
was bridesmaid and Edwin King at
tended the groom. The newly married
couple at once left for their handsomely
furnished fiat in Devils Lake, over Tur-
ner's store, where Mr.. and Mrs. Nc
lines are now at home to their many
friends.
The bride is one Of the talented
young ladies of Devils Lake, having
participated in many Of the home tai
ent productions here, proving popular
in every undertaking. She was also
very prominent in society circles and
her many friends are rather uneasy to-
day over the fact that she was allowed
to steal such a march on them and be
married without their knowledge.
The groom is one Of the prominent
business men Of the city, having re.
Gently established in partnership in
the Owl Pharmacy. He has been EN-.
ployed previously in this city for a

FIRE PREVENTERS HELD AN IN
TERESTING SESSION-ATTEN
DANCE SMALL.

The fire preventers held sway in
Devils Lake last evening and though
the attendance at the mass meeting
held at the court house was not large,
yet those who were there appeared in.
terested and stayed until the final
speech was made.
B. E. Perry of St. Paul talked about
how rates were made, illustrating his
talk by taking several buildings in
Devils Lake. He brought out the point
that the builder or owner of buildings
made his own rates, that basis rate
for each town was made, determined
by conditions Of fire protection, streets,
alleys, fire department, police force and
certain other conditions.
0. NJ. Thurber representing the state
ire prevention association was also
present and explained the association
work. The passage Of laws will elm
mate fire loss, said Mr.. Thurber. Fire
insurance rates in foreign countries
are one tenth of those in the United
States. Building inspection is stricter.
The fire preventers made a tour of
the city yesterday but gave no report,
The report will not be sent broadcast
but may be procured, probably in a
couple of weeks.

from relatives or others interested in
the disposal of the body of Charles
Neri, the man who fell from the third
story Of the Minnesota hotel and re-.
ceived broken neck last Saturday
morning, Ira L. Foster, undertaken for
s. h. Ashley, received a telegram from
the mother of the deceased, Mrs. Han
nah W. Neri, los East Front street,
Newport, KY, asking that the body be
held for few days.
In the telegram Mrs. Neri states that
the insurance company with whom 4.er
son was insured, refuses to pay the pol
icy until the coroner's certificate has
been secured. Evidently she is in
rather Strengthened circumstances and
is relying on the insurance money to
get the remains of her son shipped
home. Mr.. Foster secured copy Of
the verdict given by the coroner's jury
and this, together with newspaper clip
pings of the affair were mailed today.
Up to the present time nothing has
been heard from the branch Of the

A deal has Just been contaminated
by which the Devils Lake &, Chautau-
qua Transfer company property has
been purchased by the Stotlar Invest
ment company Of this city, which
means the establishment of an electric
railway between Devils Lake, Green
wood, Chautauqua and the military res
ervation.
According to Mr.. Stotlar of this city
the line is to be put in first class con-
dition and extended to the military res.
ervation and electric cars will be used
instead Of the present steam equip
ment.
This is probably the greatest boom
that Devils Lake has enjoyed during
the past year, and although the people
have been looking forward to the es-
tablishment of an electric railway for
some time, no definite agreement could
be reached for the purchase Of the rail
road until the last week.
This will also be a great advantage
in the sale Of lots which according to
DR.. Hooking will be continued until
spring at the old price, when they will
advance about twenty-five per cent
ABOUT May l.
c. A. Stotlar, who is at the head Of
the new electric ra..way, is an old rail
road man and experienced in the bus
mess having resigned, a position as
train master at Minot four years ago.
Work on installing the new road
will be commenced at once and ar
rangements have already been made
for the purchase Of ears, according to
a telegraph message which was receiv-
ed from Bert Stotlar this morning.
Devils Lake is gradually beginning
to realize some Of the things that it
has set out to do during the past year
and with the Stotlar Investment COM
pany back of the new railway project
there should be little difficulty in its
success.
Every citizen should put shoulder
to the wheel and encourage the latest
enterprise.
