Man FINED FOR
MOLESTING ARMY
SALVATION ARMY HAD A LITTLE
TRoUsLE YESTERDAY AFTER
NOON AND MAN WHO CREATED
SCENE WITH OFFICER FINED
BY JUDGE MILLER.

John A Jorgerson was fined e5 this
| morning when he appeared In the DO
! lice court on the charge OF disturbing
religious meeting. The case was
fought by the Officers OF the Salvation
Army and the defendant opposed them
very strongly.
According 70 the evidence in the
court introduced by the defendant he
had been insulted by Stan Captain
Wolfe of the army corps, who has hear
conducting meetings here for some
time. Jorgerson alleged that the
speaker OF the afternoon had called
MIN a bull dog and make other re-
marks to which he took offense.
stan Captain Wolfe told a story
somewhat different from the defendant
and stated that Jorgerson had called
him CRATER to which remarks the
officer also took offense. The officer
stepped up to Jorgerson and claims
that Jorgerson pushed him away and
then prepared to strike him.
About this time an officer arrived
on the scene and Torgerson was ar
rested, He was later released on bail
and appeared in the police court this
morning.
The court in passing sentence stat
ed that the laws regarding the molest
alton of religious meetings are very
strict and that the defendant should
not have created a disturbance at such
an event. He also criticised the army
OFFICER for being overly sensitive and
made the fine light, as the evidence
was such that Jorgerson might have
mad cause for being provoked, il his
tale was true.
Captain Grasse Of the local corps
and another member OF the army in /!
Fargo testified IN the hearing for the
complaining witness. The defendant
had no witnesses to represent his side
OF the case.
The trouble occurred at the cor |
ner of N. p. avenue and Broadway
yesterday afternoon and created a good |
real Of excitement at the time and |
was generally talked about over the |
streets last evening and today, because |

|DR. LEONARD SPOKE
TO LARGE NUMBER
FORMER PASTOR or THE FIRST
METHODIST CHURCH OF THIS
CITY GAVE A MOST ABLE AID.
DRESS AT Y. M. c. A. YEsTER.
DAY AFTERNOON.

DR.. Herbert G.. Leonard, formerly
pastor of the First Methodist church of
this city, but now of the twin Giles.
was heard yesterday in two most able
talks, one at the church of which he
used to be pastor, where he spoke in
the morning and later at the Y. NJ. C.
A. where he delivered an address In
the afternoon to the men of the ASSOC
citation.
The afternoon talk of Rev. DR..
Leonard was one of the ablest he has
ever heard to deliver In Fargo. His
subject was The Bible at Related TO
the Social Crisis. AS forceful speak
er on religious topics, this was made
one OF the most powerful addresses
that has been heard at the regular
mems meetings Of the Y. M G. A. in
a long time. Dr. Leonards plea was
for the church to get right into the
midst Of the strife from the start and
help to better conditions socially as
well as spiritually.
He called attention to the great
work Of the church that is going on in
all OF the fields of the world, of the
great help that is being given the
heather beyond the seas and he made
mention OF the great work that is be-
Ing conducted at the present time in
such civilized nations as Germany
Russia and Turkey. China and the
awakening of her people was cited as
an example Of what christian agita-
ton had done and that the world was
progressing because of all this strife
and forward movement.
Dr. Leonard, with his usual gift of
language, painted a number of beau
tiful pictures which were well worth
The hearing. Illustrations from the
lives of the such men as Henry Stan
ley and Abraham Lincoln were paint
ed. DIR. Leonard will deliver a lecture

BY SUPREME COUNCIL OF THE

NOW IN FLORIDA.

It has just leaked out that a well
known citizen Of Fargo was highly
honored at the recent session of the
supreme council of the Scottish Rite
an Washington. Hon. w. A. Scott was
fnvested with grand cross by unani-
NOUS vote, and was the only one among
the $4,000 members who was thus hon
ored. The council also voted to him
the beautiful Jewel of this degree as
an honorarium for distinguished Ma
sonic service. There are only eleven
other members who have this distinc-
ton in the entire southern jurisdiction
OF the United States-Albert r. Cup
till Of Fargo. being one of these.
Mr.. SCOTS friends believe that he
well deserves this recognition, and on
his return he will be- most warmly
congratulated. The rareness with
which this decoration is bestowed
makes 1t greatly appreciated when
ever given a brother.
Mr.. Scott has gone down to Florida
to inspect some land recently pur-
chased, and will probably return home
in about two weeks, while Mrs. Scott
anticipates remaining south for the
winter.

It's progress. The system is good-bet-
ter, theoretically, than the old way.
There is no doubt that 10 vote as the
world does is much better than re-
sorting to old methods. But infiu-
ences remained unchanged. If the
doing away with excessive department
spirit was one of the aims of this in
production, it has failed. The results
were as much foregOne conclusions
as they ever We're and the departments
voted in bodies as they have always
done. The man who was an individual
candidate had about as much chance
as the prOverbial SNOWFALL
OF course, this new system gives the
rising young politicians a laboratory
course in representative government,
Dut this is again the benefit of the few
1t the expense of the many. The bal
ot system is as good as the old way,
md in some respects is much better,
Iut if the doing away with the
