ALLEGED THAT MATT SMITH
PASSED FORGED CHECK
FOR FIFTEEN DOLLARS,

Bismarck, N. d.. Jan. 23-Matt
Smith, who was recently discharged
from the state penitentiary after serv-
ing year for forgery. for which
crime he had been sent up from stark
county, is in the city Jail, and viii
have to face another trial for the same
offense.
Smith was picked up Thursday even
ing by Patrolman Martineson on a
charge of being drunk and disorderly.
1t was known by the officers that he
had passed q check on the Lenhart
Drug Co. for SIS. The check was made
payable to himself and was supposed
to have been signed by p. j. Jacobson
Of the penitentiary Office force. Ja-
cabson declared that It was forgery.
It was afterward learned by the po-
lice that he had cashed a check a
few days ago which was forgery but
that woman friend OF the accused
had learned of his scrape and had
made the amount good. A man in the
city claims to have seen in Smiths
possession a few nights ago a check
for $40 made payable to Smith and
signed by N. A. Freeburg, a contractor
Of this city.
1t was not on his person when he
was searched and the police are at
tempting to learn whether or not he
has passed that on some Of the local
merchants. He will have a prelimi-
nary hearing within the next few days.

spring and planted it TO corn there
were a few who smiled derisively and
predicted a crop failure for Mr.. Hare.
When he sank the cultivator shoes
couple of inches under the surface
of the soil there were more smiles,
but the crops grew and Mr.. Hare took
off one of the best crops this section
of the state boasted of last fall. In
the place of stones the willy farmer
put manure from his own barnyard
and from those of his neighbors. That
was the secret of the great product
lveness of his new North Dakota acres
and he is going in on more extef1-
sive scale this coming season. In adj
dition to his own farm he will operate
rented piece of land and he is go-
ing to blanket the whole works with
a liberal coat of fertilizer.
Mr. Hare has commenced hauling
from several points in Havana. The
distance to his farm is five miles but
he considers the time and expense
well worth while and by spring he
expects to have the job finished. While
other farmers are permitting their
tarnyard waste to peacefully rot along
with the implements left in the fields
last fall, Mr.. Hare is laying the foun-
cations OF fat bank account next
season. He has the right idea and
volumes may be written on the SUBJ
ject.
A serial story covering many pages
might also be written on the short
sightedness of permitting farm imple-
ments to remain in the fields all win
ter subject to the coroding influences
of the elements. Hurrying to riches
through the flax and wheat routes
have proved a lasting failure in older
sections of the country. Sargent coun-
ty will some day return to bossy and
the corn fields and diversified farm
ing, and the abandoned creameries
which now stand as monuments of
idleness will some day be set in motion
and the farmers bank accounts will
begin to show steady and substantial
increases. 1t only requires the influx
OF few more farmers who will take
hold of matters in the fashion OF

UP-TO-DATE Man
GETTING RESULTS

Havana Union: To haul manure
five miles for distribution over fields
is job very few farmers in this sec
ton Of the country are undertaking
these cold days, or at any other time
of the year for that matter. Still,
that is what Farmer e. E. Hare is
doing this week.
Farmer Hare has the distinction of
being one of the best and most sue
cessful farmers in this section of the
country. He has not been farming
here very long, but he is a hustler
and has some up-to-date methods
which are bound to win, and which
will be adopted and followed by his
neighbors. One of them will be the
fertilizing of the soil in the proper
manner.
Mr. Hare came to this county from
Wisconsin less than two years ago,
and bought farm of 200 acres in
Weber township. He began grubbing
out the stones which he found on the
fields, and ditching out some of the
low spots his neighbors considered
sToughs. When he broke the land last

SOW GOES MAD
FROM Dogs BITE

Darlington, n. D., Jan. 23.-Yester-
baugh place at Guptil went suddenly
mad, frightened into Mysteries the
other occupants of the pen, and soon
developed a genuine case of rabies.
The porker was killed today. The
other hogs in the pen were removed
from her company as soon as the owner
noticed she was mad and ii is not
thought that they were bitten.
The SOW was bitten nine days ago by
a strange dog. The dog was seen by
Mr. Stambaugh to come from the barns
and it's appearance was such that Mr..
| Stambaugh suspected something was
wrong and shot the dog. Later it was
| found that the same dog-described as
short haired grey and black hunt
| ing dog-had been at the Stambaugh
farms near Darlington but had been
driven away from there. The dog evil
IDENTIFY went north to the Guptil farm
before attacking any other stock.
Yesterday the hog at Stambaugh's
suddenly took fits and acted as if
wild. She attempted to bite everything
| within reach and to tear down the
pen. When given a pail of swill, she
seized the pail in her teeth and threw
! it about her head.
Whether any other dogs or stock
in this vicinity have been bitten, and
| thereby subjected to an attack of by
| drophobia is not known. 1t is reported
that several dogs have been congre-
eating on the outskirts Of the city and
acting queerly. Meanwhile, 1t would
be well to keep keen eye out for any
symptoms of madness and to kill all
| worthless and stray dogs on sight.
Doctor Cusack said this forenoon:
81 have not been out to the Stambaugh
farm yet but will go today. The
symptoms they have given me are per-
feet for the rabies. It is a popular
fallacy that dogs go mad only dur
! ing dog days There is more by
drophobia in Alaska than in any other
place"

CHARGED WITH
BOX CAR THEFT

Bowman, N. D., Jan, 2S.-The matter
of stealing merchandise of all kinds
from box cars in transit on the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & Puget Sound rail-
road has caused trouble to the officers
of that company, especially the claim
department, ever since the extension
was built. Some brakemen have been
arrested and convicted during the past
three years, but up to this time Bow
man county has been able to escape
paying the costs of Milwaukee en-
pIoyes getting what was coming to
them. 1t appears now, however, that
we are in for it.
Numerous complaints have been
sent in from merchants at Bowman,
and in fact, all along the line, ofsthese
depredations. Before Christmas c. C..
Weems had a shipment of goods he
wanted especially for the holiday trade,
disappear and it was only upon the
arrest Of Frank Waters at Marmarth,
that he learned what had become of it,.
Tuesday evening Special Agent Wer-
nick Of the Milwaukee road, arrived
in town, having in custody Frank
Waters who he arrested at Marmarth
charged with stealing goods to the
value of SIS from box car at Bow
man. Some of Mr.. Weems' goods were
found in his room. Mr. Wernick filed
information against Waters Wednes-
day morning and he was taken before
Judge Otto HI. Boyesen. Waters waived
examination and was held to district
court in 81 900 bail, in default of which
he will board on Bowman county until
the next term Of the district court.
A warrant is out for the arrest Of
John Mcdonald, but as yet he has
not been arrested.

MILITARY GROUNDS
Being CLEARED
100 ACRES CLEARED-DRIVEWAYS
WILL BE LAID OUT AND PARK
MADE BEAUTIFUL.

Devils Lake, N. D., Jan. 23.--The mill
itary board is still busy with improve
ments which will make the encamp-
ment grounds here source of pride
to the citizens and make them one of
the finest in the United States. Under
brush and dead trees are being cut
down and already twenty cars of poles,
chopped from the grounds, have been
shipped up the Farmers line and to
points along the Cando branch. A hun
dred acres have been cleaned up. This
includes the road from the parade
grounds to Pelican point, which will
be one Of the most beautiful drive
ways in the state. There is a bill be-
fore the legislature asking for a main
tenance fund for the grounds, and as
soon as this is secured ii is the inten-
ton OF the management to continue
the work of clearing the whole park
from brush and unsightly trees, and
To make driveways running in various
directions through the grounds which
can be used by the public as well as
the militia.
Another bill to come before this leg
islature will csk for a quartermaster's
house and club room for the officers.
1t will mean much not only to the
grounds, but also to Chautauqua and
Devils Lake if this appropriation is
| obtained, for there is no doubt but
that the encampment will be held here
then nearly every year. Not only will
the state militia come, but regiments
from the other states, as there is no
reason why it should not become one

grounds. It has all the natural attrac-
tons and possibilities Of any of the
national encampment locations, and
with some improvements will be equal
ly as desirable for summer outing.

Little Girl Missed Death.

Harvey, n. D., Jan. 23.-What came
near being a distressing accident hap
pened at the depot crossing when a
little school girl was knocked down
and nearly run over by a switching
freight train. The only reason that a
distressing tragedy did not happen was
that in being struck by the caboose
she was knocked clear off the rails
and so escaped meeting a horrible
death. The little one was so bundled
up that she could neither see nor hear
well enough to notice. the backing up
Of the freight, and as the train in
switching was going at a low rate of
speed she was not injured by the
bump, although the cars went about
five car lengths before they could be
stopped. Her name was not learned,
as she jumped up and ran along to
school.
