IS SEVERELY INJURED
Warren Graham Thrown
From Horse and SuS-
tainS Internal Injuries

Warren Graham, who has been acting
al relief operator for the Northern
Pacific at Gregory station. near which
his father, Fremont GNhAm's farm is
located, a few miles south of town, is
in a serious condition as the result of
an ACCIDENT which befell him last Mon
day night
Mounting q saddle1 horse Warren
left the farm house shortly after 6
O'Clock to hunt up q stray COW, and
when he tailed to return a search was
made with the result that he was
found PROSTATE on the ground in an
unconscious state at about II o clock,
his body being chilled through. In the
dark the horse had evidently run into
a twisted wire fence and the young
man had been thrown to the ground
with suct force as to stun him. The
horse had broken through three of the
wires and was found a short distance
from the scene Of the accident. Warren
was taken to the house and medical
aid procured.
While all the outward marks to be
found on his body was a bruised loft
leg and no bones were broken, the
attending physician believes that his
balm and spinal column we're injured.
Up to yesterday Warren was uncon-
scious most of the time but now has
longer periods of consciousness and has
the complete use of his faculties.

BARkLEY TAKES FRENCH LEAVE

BARhLEY lakes FRENCH LEAVE
The City Bakery and Restauran,
was closed tuesday afternoon, e. Il.
Barkley, erstwhile proprietor of the
place, having completely disappeared
since Sunday afternoon, leaving q
number of unpaid bills in his wake.
Telling his help that he was going
for a stroll to Maple Island, it seems
that the Broadway baker went to the
railroad yards and caught q cattle
train out of this city, 1T being stated
that the conductor and engineer of the
train recognized him. ~
Why he should thus act is one of the
queer things about the case, as the
bakery and restaurant enjoyed q
liberal patronage:
Barkley's liabilities, it is figured
will amount to about 5000, while the
assets OF the bakery will, according to
present indications almost cover it. He
had been putting off his creditors and
his help for some time, owing one
butcher shop $50 and one of his help
about $65. The total amount due his
help is about $50.
The action Of some OF the creditors,
who had: writs Of attachment served on
the stock. caused the closing Of the
bakery and restaurant.

tQlnerent attitudes at Will and with as
great speed as any of the larger birds
Of the sir. To those who had already
seen: aeroplane flights, the work Of the
Grand Forks bird man was greatly ap-
llpreciated as it was better than they
had ever seen, while those who saw
it for the first time marveled at the
feat accomplished. The %aeroplane was
driven by a 60-horse power engine. 1t
started, from the Athletic park ball
grounds and gracefully ascended and as
gracefully came down to earth again
at the starting place. The back end Of
the park fence for a distance of about
Isixty feet was removed to give the
aviator the use of a little knoll in
making the start into the air above.
The last fight vas made Saturday
afternoon despite a rather stiff wind.
and the airship rocked considerably but
was at all times in complete control of
the aviator. The management Of the
county fair would not hesitate to re-
commend Kenworthy & McGoey as
putting on the best there is In the line
OF aeroplane flights.
From start to finish the attractions
I were pulled off without a hitch, and
THANKS to J. f. McNally, who acted
as tie society's official announcer, on
|timesas per schedule. AS everything
to0k*place as advertised on the first
day Of the fair, m0nstrous crowds
visited Little Falls on the two succeed
ing ways. 1t was nevertheless as orderly
ana GOOD natured a crowd as could be
! aasssst 49, there sheihg no. -Wrangling, no
tights and consequently no arrests.
The live stock shown at this fair
would open the eyes of stock raising
counties much older than Morrison,
while the fruit, especially the apples,
would make the best orchards in this
country look to their laurels. The
agricultural products excited the ad-
miration Of several that came up from
southern Minnesota. Not only was
there quality to them but quantity as
well. The public school manual train
ing exhibits certainly were a surprise
for their excellency, while the fine
needle and fancy work in the ladies'
department showed that ia every line
of endeavor Morrison county ranks
high.
The Milo theatre showed to packed
houses in the afternoons and evenings,
and the Harrison & Peterson dance hall
was crowded with those who wished
to tread the light fantastic. There
were about $50 couples present at the
Saturday evening dance.
SO thorough was the work of the
county fair committee in charge, espe.
cially that of Geo. NJ. Kiewel and
Secretary N. N. Bergheim, to whom
most of the work fell, and was per-
formed SO willingly. that the fair was
devoid of all fault.tind;ng, no knockers
being anywhere in evidence.
If it was left to the big crowds that
attended the fail, whether the Morri.
son County Agricultural Cooperative
society made good and was worthy Of
general support, we are quite sure that
the conscientious answer would. be nm.
~animously in the affirmative. .

DESCRIBES SOUTH'S
GROWING RESOURCES
Claude N. Bennett Lectures to
Representative Audience.

Before a large and representative au.
dience, Claude n. Bennett lectured a,
the Columbia Theatcr last evening or
THE South to-day and tomorrow"
Mr. Bennett was introduced by Senator
Duncan L. Fletcher, of Florida, who
told the audience of the wonderful re.
sources of the South and its superiority
over other sections, its natural advan-
tages.
The object of this lecture, which Mr.,
Bennett plans to be one of a series on
various sections of the United States
was to interest the general public in the
beauties and natural as well as indus
trial wonders Of this country.
MANI beautiful color views were shown
Of growing crops of all kinds, bits OF
marvellous scenery, and a highly inter-
esting series of motion pictures, show
ing modern road-making and the grow.
ing, gathering, marketing, and manufac-
turing of cotton.
The lecturer gave an entertaining array
of statistics, and enlivened his talk with
poems, quotations, and humorous stories
appropriate to the particular phase OF
Southern history and progress.

One of the greatest religious forces of
the world and one of the strong Or
ganizations OF Christianity meets in a
supreme delegated body at Atlantic City
next Thursday. 1t is the Presbyterian
Church North. the large Presbyterian
body OF the New World and the domi-
nant part of the Alliance of Reformed
Churches of the World holding the Pres
byterian system of government
In adults and children hardly fewer
than 100000 persons are involved who
give s3,5Oo,ooo a year to missionary work
and S23, 1000 of the $325, 600 900 that
Americans give annually to maintain and
extend organized Christian forces.
Commissioners from Washington City
Presbytery include Rev. William H. Ed

Neibel. Mr.. Harry X. Simpson, and Mr..
Charles B. Bailey, of this city.
insurgency in Churches.
Insurgency obtains in American
churches just as it does just now in
American politics. The West against the
East-the West that thinks its inning has
come and the East that is charged with
wanting everything in sight. and with
having gotten it so long that it takes II
in as a matter OF right and course. Two
men are mentioned for the moderator
ship, the presiding officer for the year,
the highest of Presbyterian honors
These men are the Rev. DR.. NJ. A. Mat
thews. of Seattle, and the Rev. Dr. John
F. Carson, OF Brooklyn. The West is for
Matthews. Whether the East is for Car
son or will scatter its strength re-
mains to be seen. 1t is reckoned that the
Brooklyn pastor will fare as well as any
body.
The fact is that the insurgents want
their man. Backed as they are by an
additional force, they are likely to get
him. This new force this year Is the
Pacific Coast. II has come to be that
Presbyterian moderators give the year to
the position They travel to most cities
in the twelvemonth; they speak on all
sorts of occasions.
Always they are the chief speakers, the
chief guests, and always they are an
nounced as from the West; this time as
from the Coast. Sectional pride, Sec
t!onal gain-these are the forces but in
this case haply they are not forces of
Of destruction, but rather for front seats
of service. There Is no personal hos
tility. The rivalry is friendly one; the
gain to the Christian cause.
Honor for Seattle.
The largest Presbyterian Church in the
world is not in New York, or in Pitts
burg, Scotland, or London. but in new
and enterprising Seattle. And the Rev.
DR.. NJ. A. Matthews Is pastor Of it. Its
membership is Ais, and a better organ
ized, better giving, bigger religious and
social force does not, 1t is safe to say,
exist anywhere in the shape Of a single
congregation.
The pastor himself comes from the
Cumberland Presbyterian body originally.
Then he went into the Presbyterian
South body, and twelve or fifteen years
ago went to Seattle, where at the time
the First Church there was small, weak,
and discouraged, and in it the change
has been brought about by the man
whom the West now, with some insur-
gent and Coast spirit, wants to make
moderator at Atlantic City next Thurs
day. And the East rather expects the
West and the Coast will do it.
