GRAIN BUYER
IS IN TROUBLE
GEORGE REED WANTED on A FALSE
PRE1ENSE CHARCE-ARRESTED m
MINNEAPOLIS, minnesota

George Reed whose presence in
this county is wanted by residents
of Hamlet on the Stanley branch
in this county was arrested at
Minneapolis yesterday by the
sheriff of Hennipin county. Reed
was a grain buyer at Hamlet and
his alleged issuing checks witho ut
funds has led to his facing charge
of obtaining money under false
pretense.
Deputy Sheriff Jarstad went to
Hamlet the first of the week and
found Reed flown but by keeping
a close mouth on the object of his
mission, found that his man was
in Minneapolis and telegram
from him to the Hennipen county
sheriff resulted in the arrest. JAR
stad went to Minneapolis on No. 2
today and will return with his man
Saturday or Sunday.

BULLET WOUND
THROUGH LUNG
BERT Meier SHOT At SPANISH POINT
TUESDAY. IS BROUGHT TO THE
WlLIIST0N HOSPITAL

Bert Meier a homesteader of
northwest of the city was accident
ly shot Tuesday afternoon while
deer hunting near Spanish Point
and is now at the Williston hos
pital with a ragged bullet wound
through the right side just under
the arm muscles.
In its course, the bullet, a 1886
Savage touched the right lung and
the patient has had some internal
bleeding, but at this time is rest
ing we'll and with the best Of chanc-
es for recovery. A number of
hunters were after a wounded buck
and in some way Meier got in the
line of fire and received his hurt,
the bullet passing through him and
being found in his shirt when it
was removed at the hospital. The
ball was DETECTED by the brush
and entered the body with the
metal patch torn from the lead in
terror, thus making a worse wound
than it would had the patch re-
mained on the ball. The shooting
was purely accidental and one of
the unfortunate accidents that will
happen now and anon when hunters
congregate in territory where a
clear sight of game is impossible.

BLIGHT ON The FAIR ESCU1CnE0N
OF erin

Much woe has been visited on
the heads of the Irish race and ever
since the day that Henry II first
sent his minion Strongbow to bring
fire, sword and want into the green
isle, the mailed hand has rested
sorely on the brow of Paddy. But
not since the first step was taken
to enslave the Irish nation, down
through the intervening centuries
until this day, has a greater affront
been but on the race there has
been perputrated upon them in
the last few days in this city.

ants in the last week or so have
doubtless noted the introduction of
Hungarian Goulash: No Teresa
it is not in a minor! This horror
in the way of cookery, this iendish
contrivance to put the abdominal
cavity on the bum, this apex of
gastronomic cussedness, this damn
able unesculent makeshlft that
originated in the evil mind of some
swart, low browed chef who had a

GATHERING WAS
FULL OF INTEREST
BRIDGING The GULF BETWEEN FARM
AND TOWN UP FOR DISCUSSION
FARMERS FAVOR FACTORY

When agriculture begins other
arts follow" said Daniel Webster
many years ago and the saying
came as 4 re-echC from the past at
the beet sugar meeting of the Com
mercial Club last Saturday.
Inclement weather had made it
impossible for many farmers under
the ditch to attend the meeting
that was called for 80 and on
invitation of President Anderson
of the Commercial Club and E. r.
Brownson of the water users
association the school officers that
were in attendance at the annual
school meeting at the court house.
Everyone attended and the ladies
that were at the meeting we're made
the welcome guests Of the Com
mercial Club:and, while the original
intent of the meeting was to dis
cuss with the land owners the beet
sugar project, it was for the time
being turned into a mutual benefit,
bridge the gulf meeting in which
both sides and the pros and cons
of the different sides of the ques-
ton was discussed.
The use of the library was
proffered the people outside of the
city under the same conditions as
to town people by Miss Baldwin
who in a neat ten minute talk out
lined the workings of the library
and gave a brief synopsis of the
books now on the shelves that re-
lated directly to farms, soils ano
crop conditions and closed her re-
marks with cordial invitation te

FATHER and SON
ARE IN TROUBLE
CHARLES and EUGENE Van TREES ARE
BOUND OVER TO DISTRICT COURT
UNDER $3.50 BOND EACH

Either the victims of circum.
stantial evidence or carrying the
charge against them with plenty
of assurance of guilt, Charles Van
Trees and Eugene Van Trees his
son, farmers living in the Bone
traill neighborhood, went through
the preliminary hearing before
Justice Houge Monday without
giving the state any advantage
save what it received from the
witnesses that were called by the
prosecution.
Van Trees and his son are in the
county Jail under a complaint
charging them with grand larceny
brought by John Moe of near
Bonetraill, who alleges that. the
defendants severally or jointly,
made away with thirty bushels of
his wheat more or less from a
shack on the Englebritson place
on Monday evening Nov. 6.
According to testimony intro
duced by the state a we'll defined
trail led from the shack where the
grain was stored to the Van Trees
granary. The Van Trees father
and son made no denial that the
wheat found in the granary was
not theirs and made no effort to
stop Moe and Albert Nelson, a
neighbor, from removing the grain
and the elder Van Trees gave Moe
$40 for hauling the grain back and
presumed the matter settled. They
were then arrested on the above
charge.
The defendants say that the
grain was, placed in their graaafy
by some enemy and that neither
of them were away from the farm

other firms here.
Mr.. Bolcs is enthusiastic over

TOM STILL AT LARGE
Pants, Coats and Board Bills Figure in
Fields Court Monday

One pair of pants, two Overcoats
and a jumped board bill was the
dramatis personae in Judge Fields
court Monday evening when A.
Fredrickson of WestIawn brought
action against John Crawford and
Tom Burns, rip rap workers and
ex- bundle pitchers, charging that
they had mad de away with the be-
fore mentioned garments as well
as leaving the boarding house
holding the sack for thirty dollars
on the wrong side of the ledger.
The action was dismissed against
Crawford as there was no evidence
that he had any intention to de-
fraud and did not get the clothing
and on his paying the bill the ac-
tion was dismissed.
Tom is still at large with Nolan,
Bemis, the sheriff and other offici-
ais looking for him as it is alleged
that he is the man with the pants
and the pair of top coats. The
wanted one is minus one thumb
and nearly shy on eyesight and
with these physical defects it will
probably be easy to locate him, as,
it is thought that he has not yet
shook the dust Of the city from
his moccasins.
Later-Burnes was picked up
at Buford and brought back to the
city under escort of Deputy Sheriff
Otsa Tuesday evening. He paid
the outstanding board bill and
offered to plead guilty to petit
larceny which offer was accepted
by the court and he will spend the
next thirty days in Jail. Fredrick-
son had his trousers and coats re-
turned, Mrs. Fredericksop was
duly paid the board bill and Tom
will get free board for the next
thirty days hence everyone is
happy.

HOUCE SHY TWENTY-FIVE
Richard Mccoy Arrested on Grand Larceny
Charge--Out on $500 Bond.

Richard Mccoy mason helper
who has been about the city for
the past year was arrested Wednes-
day night at the Tchsler boarding
house by Deputy Sheriff Jarstad
assisted by Officer j. G. Bromberg
charged with grand larceny for
the alleged lifting of $25 more or
less from Henry Houge.
The worm of the still figured in
the episode according to the de-
velopments at the preliminary
hearing before Justice Field this
morning and the testimony given
was a little hazy by all concerned.
The absence of Houge's twenty
five bones however, led the justice
to hold Mccoy to the district court
under $500 bonds which was
furnished.

SIXTY ATTEND STORY HOUR
Sunday Opening Of Library is Proving
Popular--Cift From J. J. Hill

There can be no doubt Of the
success of the Sunday opening of
the library. The attendance on
the first Sunday was seventeen and
this increased to twenty five last
Sunday. The gratifying part of
the attendance is that it is COM
posed largely of adults, many of
them men who find little time to
come to the library through the
week.
The first story hour was attended
by sixty children in spite of the
cold weather, and this. too, is d
very encouraging beginning. The
next story will be told at the same
hour next Saturday morning, and
all children At the story-loving age
are invited to attend
The library has just received the
gift of two boxes of books from
Mr.. j. j. Hill The books cover
q variety of subjects, but those on
agricultural lines will doubtless be
of the greatest service. A list of
these will soon be published.
Among the shipment was Mr..
