hard to bear is a mystery. 1t is
different from any other pain that

ROBBER BOLD IN GRAND FORKS
Davis Dragged About His Ability to
Crack Safes Open.

Grand Forks, N. D., June Alt
now developers that Mike (Manches-
ter Curley) Davis and Martin (Billie)
Bean were in East Grand Forks for
some time during the late winter
and early spring. Bean was in East
Crank Forks for several months but
Davis was there for about two weeks
in the month of March. While in
East Grand Forks Davis told freely
of his various escapades. He made
the boast that he had served time on
several occasions but loudly pro-
claimed that before he would again
go behind the bars, he would take
his own life.
Davis during his stay across the
river did not seem to be at all retic-
ent about his trade. He told his
cronies there that he was a profess
sional safe cracker and boosted that
he was one of the best men in the
business. He declared that he had
on more than one occasion cracked
a safe in the rear of the store on the
Fourth of July while the owners
were out in front watching the par
ade.>> The giant fire crackers he
claimed helped to drown the deto-
nation of his explosive.
Davis further said that a great
deal of the safe cracking in the
smaller towns was hired work, > in
which the .safe blowers were hired
by the banking officials to do the
work. He said that he had on sever
al occasions been hired by bank off,
Gals who had made poor invest
ments to rob the bank. Dollar for
dollar insurance against burglary
meant that safe cracking affair
would allow them to get out of the
hole and this means, according to
his story, was resorted to oftener
than people generally believe.
He further declared that although
he had tried safe-blowing in North
Dakota that he was through with this
state because of the level land. The
kind of land he wanted to work in
was land rolling in it's nature with
woods nearby.
There is also rumOr to the effect
that while he was in East Grand
Forks Davis carried on long dis
lance telephone conversation with
Dumas at Bemidji.
East Grand Forks people who
know Davis claim that he is a des-
perado of the worst type, and ex-
press the opinion that the search be-
ing made for him is being carried on
with great deal of care. Human
life, they say, is no object with
Davis, and he would not allow the
killing of a man or two to stand in
his way.

A Gorgeous Pageant.

The foreign royalties came in for
much notice from the crowds and the
Duke of Connaught, Lord Kitchener
and other notables were cheered, but
it was not until the Kings process
sion came along that there was any
great show of enthusiasm. Their
Majesties rode in the familiar stage
coach of white and gold, drawn by
sixteen cream-colored horses with
grooms and out riders in scarlet
livery. The King acknowledged the
salutations of his subjects in rather
perfunctory manner as though his
mind was occupied with thoughts
of the solemn ceremonies to come,
but the Queen bowed and smiled con-
stantly. The procession wendell it's
way through the Mall, Whitehall,
Parliament Street and other brilliant
ly decorated thoroughfares. Every
square foot along the route had been
utilized for the accommodation of the
spectators. Many American parties
occupied desirable windows and
stands. The Canadians, too, were
much in evidence and special pro-
vision was made for their accomo-
dation by the Government. Three
thousand were Accommodated in the
immediate vicinity of the Abbey,
while others were gathered at the
Offices of the Canadian Government,
and at the headquarters of the
Dominion agents and railways. The
progress of the royal cortege through
the densely packed streets was a con-
tinued triumph, which reached it's
climax on the arrival at the Abbey
where there was scene of unparal-
leled enthusiasm which did not

with expectancy of the morrow. Be-

Armory found the streets filled with
excited, chattering crowds on their
way to the Mall and other localities
wherever a glimpse could be expected
of the days pageantry. Buckingham
Palace, naturally, was the principal
center of interest in the early part
of the day, as it was the starting
point of the great pageant. The
scene in the vicinity of the Palace
was most animated. Streets were
filled, windows were filled and the
roofs of the surrounding buildings
were filled with spectators. AS the
hour appointed for the departure of
the royal procession approached the
excitement became intense. The ap-
pearance of their Majesties' state
coach at the gateway was the signal
for roar of cheers that could be
heard blocks away.
