PIGEONS
Do DAMAGE
TO CROPS
Especial to the 1ribunoO

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, July H.
What is known as the white-winged
pigeon of Mexico has been doing some
damage to the Egyptian wheat crop in
the lower Rio Grande Valley. This
bird has swarmed across the border
river from the mountains in Mexico
by the thousands and for a time
threatened the growing wheat crop.
Under direction, however, of State
Game Warden Smith, the farmers be-
gan killing them in large numbers and
but little damage was done to the
crop. These white-winged pigeons re-
semble very much, both in habits and
shape, the wild pigeon that used to
be so numerous in the United States,
particularly in all parts of the Missis-
sippf and Ohio river valleys. 1t will
be recalled that when the last crop
was short, wild pigeons did great dam
age to the growing crops of the farm
ers in the two sections named and at
times when migrating northward for
days they passed in great clouds, al
most obscuring the sun at times. Older
residents, too, will remember the
raids that were made upon pigeon
roosts at night and how the birds
were slaughtered by the thousands at
times. me white-winged pigeon of
Mexico appears to propagate quite as
fast as the American wild pigeon did
in the old days.

Held ON White
SLAVERY Charge

Word was received In Bismarck yes
terday that William Oskar and Annie
Huffmeister had been held over to the
United States court by Commissioner
Conmy of Pembina, who heard the
preliminary examination of the couple
last Thursday.
When the case was heard in Penn.
bina, Judge Barnett of Fargo, assist
ant United States attorney, repre-
sented the pros ecution for the govern.
ment, and the case showed in it's early
stages that it might develop into a
real white slavery affair. The action
brought out certain disclosures to lead
the court to ask that physical ex.
animation be made of the Huffmeister
girl.
DR.. c. B. Harris of Pembina made
the examination of the young lady, and
the result of the investigation led the
United States court commissioner to
hold the alleged offenders over to the
higher court.
Oskar and the girl, whom he claims
to be his stepdaughter, were taken of
an N. P. train at Pembina by the i'm
migration officials of the government,
who held them awaiting investigation.
The pair claimed to be enroute to
Milwaukee, where Oskar claimed he
was taking the girl to some relatives.
The cause of the action of the i'm
migration officials was the report re-
ceived from some travelling men at
the hotel where the pair had regis
tered as father and daughter.

Ter and a roomful of linemen in the
Brunswick hotel early Sunday morn.
ing resulted in the policeman's getting
a severe shaking up, black eye and
several bruises on the head.
Policeman Zeller was called to the

to quiet disturbance on one of the
upper floors. The struggling ceased
before he reached the room, but when
he inquired what was happening one of

the first landing on the stairs had his
assailant tightly by the throat. Then
Zeller was rushed from behind by the
other men, who beat him over the

FOR ITS ALWAYS FAIR WEATHER
WHEN GOOD FELLOWS
GET TOGETHER.

The Interstate Fair at Fargo, July
IS, 10, 20 and 81, announces program
teeming with good things to see and
hear. The entries that are being
made assure a fine showing of Gallo
way, Red Polled and Shorthorn cattle,
Shire and Percheron horses, COM
plete installation of farm products the
first time in the history of the Fair,
art displays in tapestries, paintings,
keramic work and the last novelties
in needlework and a remarkable array
in the horticultural section.
Aviation figures as a stellar attrac-
ton with our own St. Henry in the
seat of the dizzy danger. Few bird
men have record of such eminent
achievements as this native North
Dakotan has.
From first to last the fair will pro-
vide continuous entertainment, the
best music that has ever been heard
here, fast races each day and contests
in which hundreds will strive for the
big prizes that have been offered. The
Parker shows with their thirty cars
of carefully designed equipment offer
the best amusement group in the coun-
try.
The 1911 fair at Fargo will be an
occasion TO be long remembered. First
settlers of the vintage of IS will be
there and hobble skirts that were
made this summer. The Interstate
is great time for the reunion with
the lads you haven't seen for a year.

ACTOR IS
real estate
PROMOTER
Especial to the Trlbune)

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, July H.
The career of Alva Haywood of San
Antonio, Tex, is striking example
of what an actor with talent can do
Twenty years ago Mr.. Haywood taught
his name to the people of this con-
tinent as an actor of real merit and
more capable as reader of tragic
lines. He started at the bottom of
his profession and in very short
time was recognized as a star While
the stage had acting in it, it did not
offer the broad field in a business
way for Mr.. Heywood's splendid quail
tiles. In making the larger cities of
the country as headliner in the
theatrical profession, he became at
tracted by southwest Texas and its
offerings. Leaving the stage, he en-
tered the field of agricultural devel-
opment and the town of San Benito
and surrounding country in the lower
Rio Grande valley is an evidence that
he had capacity for superior CONNER
cial work-that same kind of capacity
that brought him fame on the stage.
He was a moving figure in organizing
the San Benito Land & Water COM
pany, and for the past three years
has been the president of that organ
ization. Through the productions of
the country surrounding this town it
has become famous as one of the win
ter gardens of America and this year
broke all records in sending the first
bale of cotton to market. Mr.. Hey
wood has built 50 we'll that his eff
forts attracted the attention of B. F.
Yoakum, president of the St. Louis,
Brownsville & Mexican railroad. A
few days ago Mr.. Yoakum bought an
interest in the San Benito Land 4
Water company, a large sum of
money being involved in the deal. AS
ISOLATED with Mr.. Yoakum in this pur-
chase are a number of eastern CAPT.
talists who have been casting about
for a safe place of investment. While
Mr.. Haywood has sold an interest, he
retains large share in the farming
interests near San Benito and will
continue to make that town his home.
AS an actor Of real merit. Mr.. Hey
wood has won fame in two fields of
endeavor

IURILELAKE ASSAULT
Case IS DISMISSED

The case of Brakeman WATSON, on
the Turtle Lake N. P. branch, VS.. Miss
Halves, was dismissed without trial
for lack of evidence, or ito quote the
language of the COURT ION the grounds
and for the reasons:
First: That the said information
does not substantially conform to the
requirements of the code of the state
of North Dakota.
Second: That the facts therein
stated do not constitute the public
offense therein charged"
A. c. Halves, brother of the de-
PENDANT, said to Tribune representa-
tive today that about three months
ago Brakeman WATSON was publicly
horsewhipped by Miss Hawes because
he persisted in his efforts to SANDER
her character after he had been
warned repeatedly to desist.
Numerous newspaper accounts
have appeared disappearing the.
facts, by stating that Brakeman Was.
son was held while Miss Halves ad-
ministered the lash, and also that
WATSON and the young lady had been
keeping company; these statements
have been proven to be absolutely
without foundation" said Mr.. Halves
this morning.
