Jamestown, N. D.. Aug. 2s.--Prof

Minot normal school, is a product OF
a Minnesota educational institution,
having been graduated from Carleton
college at Northfeld, but his entire
career since his graduation has been
confined to North Dakota. for he inn

he taught for the first time as school
superintendent. He proved very cap

schools UP to a high standard. his
work attracting the attention Of larger
cities, with the result that Jamestown
was successful In securing him. Prof.
Crane was the choice OF the state nor

DEATH LIST IS
NOT INCREASED
PRESENT INDICATIONS ARE THAT
NO MORE WILL DIE FROM
5oTTlNEAU CYCLONE.

Antler, N. D., Aug. 29.--Present in
dications are that the death list from
the effects Of the Bottineau county
series of cyclones will not be further
increased, the several persons who
were so seriously injured that it was
thought that they would die, having
regained strength and now are on the
road to recovery.
Mrs. VIM. Bradley of Superior, Wis,
one Of those whom it was expected
could not live, Is in much better con-
dition. Her experience was a fright
full one, she being carried about 100
yards from the place where she was
when the storm struck. A heavy
kitchen range was rolled down the
creek also, and struck her in its
travels, lodging on her chest and in
juring her frightfully. Her son, Clar-
ence, had several ribs broken, but he
will also recover.
Mrs. Ora Spry, another of those who
was expected to die, Is also much bet
ter. She has a triple fracture OF
the skull, while her son, Lester. has a
double skull fracture. The lad also
has a broken hip and deep cash in
the throat, but will recover.

College Live Stock
Exhibits at Fairs
Dean Shepherd Tells How Feeding and Milking Tests Are
Spoiled by Transferring Live Stock Fairs for Competitor
Or Exhibition Quotes Eminent Authority
Against Practice

Why don't the agriculture colleges
exhibit more live stock at the fairs IS
a question that is often raised" said
Dean J. H. shepperd OF the A. G. to a
f. -um man today:
The following from an article by
Professor Plumb of the University of
Ohio gives the position agricultural
colleges are commonly taking and
their reasons for this view of the mat
ter.
II have never felt that a college
should enter its live stock in prize
competition in either local or state
shows. The stock should be for ex-
hibition and educational purposes only.
When the show rises to the dignity
of an international or even national
one, / have viewed the matter diff
ferently. In such case the college
ordinarily only slightly affects the in
terests of the exhibitors from the
home state. The main competition Is
from without OF course some will say
that if the competition is right In one
case in principle it is right in the
other. The chief argument against
local competition lies in the fact that
the college must compete against the
taxpayer aiding in it's support, small
though that may be. In the national
or international arenas such is not the
case.
Some stockmen are perfectly will
ing that the colleges compete against
them and win IL they have the best
stock. but / believe these men are In
the minority. Some stockmen have
urged that the colleges and stations
should be able to make fine shows be-
cause of the funds at their command
to buy stock and feed and to hire
feeders. A careful study Of the finan-
ces of these institutions will show
that a large majority Of them not
only spend the little for improved
stock, but in fact do not have the
money. Ohio is a great rich state, but
the college of agriculture cannot COM
mand the money with which to buy
stock as can many Of our breeders.
The Ohio legislature has been gener-
Gus to the animal husbandry depart
ment, when compared with what is
done in most states. yet we keep seven
teen different pure breeds Of stock, in
Guiding horses, cattle, sheep and
swine. The last legislature gave us
$4,000 a year for two years for the
purchase and maintenance of live
stock. How far does the breeder Of
Percherons, for example, think that
sum will go in buying pure-bred
horses?
Colleges have come to content
themselves with exhibiting fat stock
rather than breeding stock, as fat
stock shows are chiefly either inter-
state or national in character" con-
tinued Dean Shepperd.
Few people outside of these init

CAPTURED AFTER
CUSTER MASSACRE
r. n. LAMPlNo OF CLEVELAND, O.,
TELLS EXPERIENCE WHILE
REGISTERING,

Bismarck N. D., Aug. 2s.-Amone
those who registered Saturday was F.
H. Lamping Of Cleveland, o. Mr.
Lamping has not been in this part OF
the country since he was a mere boy
and was very much surprised at the
growth Of the state.
Mr. Lamping's recital Of his boyhood
experiences read like a chapter from
thrilling melodrama. In 1875, when
10 years of age, he left home and came
west, finally getting a position as boot
black In the famous Terry's column,
which was the first force of troops to
come upon the scene Of the Custer
massacre.
When the travel worn column came
upon the field where the butchery had
occurred, the lad became frightened at
the terrible scene and deserted his Of
ffcer, starting out for Fort Berthold on
foot and alone. He was on the wrong
side OF the Yellowstone river and could
find no ford or place where he could
cross. After a several days tramp he
suddenly came upon a party Of In
dams in war paint around a bend in
the river, crossing ford on their pom
les. The terrified lad turned and ran
but was soon captured by one Of the
braves
Mr.. Lamping says that he believes
the fact that he was so young was the
only thing that saved him from death
as the Indians who proved to be a
party of Crows under the leadership
Of Red Cloud, held 9 long consulta-
ton before deciding to take him with
them. The party crossed the ford at
the scene Of the capture and went
down into the Sissetons in South Da-
kota.
Red Cloud treated the white boy
very kindly, but compelled him to live
in the village until he grew to be a
young man, desiring that he marry his
daughter. Lamping did not take kind
ly to this idea and one night escaped,
making his way to Kansas City along
the river, from where he went east.
He never has returned to the scene
of his boyhood adventures, having liv-
ed at Cleveland most of the interven-
ing time, until this year when he was
suddenly taken with a desire to get a
claim upon the Berthold reservation.

buttons realize that the 1--we stock at
the colleges, aside from little TAT
stock-used entirely for class work
are on feeding trials and other expert
ments Every milk COW at the Al. a.
has her feed weighed out to her at
every meal, her milk weighed daily
ana tested and close account kept
with her. Many of them are on a life
time run and taking them away for
exhibitions cannot be done without
seriously interfering with the trial
Aside from a few brood sows and cuIls.
the pigs at the A. G. are being pastur-
ed on different mixtures Of forage
plants, have their grain weighed to
them and are run over the scales each
week. All through our barns and
YARDS the same thing is true. The live
stock telling their stories and anv
change greatly interferes with the re-
suits.
The same thing is true of the poul-
try--every egg laid by the hens at the
A. G. Is recorded to the credit Of the
hen that produced it. Moving q hen
to new quarters or changing cows TO
strange barns will break in on their
records very badly and make the
years results uncertain and of little
value.
The A. c. was this year and il
usually regulated as to the extent Of
the educational exhibits which she
makes, at the fairs by the sum of
money which the board of trustees
decide they can devote to that work.
Il believe with Professor Plumb
tnat It would be mistake to compete
with stockmen in any case, and hence
the college draws no premium to HELM
pay expenses, / find that the agricul-
tural colleges follow the practice OF
making educational exhibits only out
side Of the fat stock classes and of
going to the shows with entries OF fat
stock only.
The A. c., of course. makes an
educational exhibit as elaborate as she
can afford to do at as many fairs in
the state as possible. This wear the
board of trustees authorised a few
more fairs than Professor Randlett

money and yet the number of fairs
visited and the extent of the exhibit
was less than any Of us wanted to put
on.
THE expense of these exhibits is
much greater than one would ordin-
arily guess. 1t takes an expert. active
man about three hours to prepare an
exhibit bundle of grain properly for
display, besides the time he puts in
collecting and curing the sample be-
fore hand. I mention this one case as
an example for it has constantly oc-

Thought Dead Man Was Bancroft.
FOR. when the body OF man was
found on the railroad tracks near this
city about two years ago, letters in
the pockets indicated that 1t was Roy
Bancroft, whose parents reside in
Wales. The authorities evidently got
into communication with the parents,
and from them learned that 1t could
not be their son who had been killed.
since he was alive and working in
Vancouver, British Columbia.
Bancroft Indicted and Extracted.
\ This set the authorities to work on
a new nne and after some difficulty
they succeeded in locating Bancroft in
Vancouver. An Indictment was re-
turned by the local grand jury, charg-
ing Bancroft with murder, and he was
extradited and brought back here. He
is at present lodged in the county jail,
without bail.
While the authorities have nothing
more than circumstantiaI evidence
against Bancroft, it is considered a
strong claim. He will be obliged, the
prosecuting attorney says, to explain
the manner in which letters addressed
TO him came to be in the possession
Of the man who was killed.
