WINTER SHORT
Terms CLOSE
TEN WEEKS COURSES IN AeRI.
CULTURE AND ENGINEERING
COME TO AN END TODAY AT
BIG FARM gscHooL--TWo HUN
DRIED STUDENTS LEAVE.

The winter short courses in agricul-
ture and engineering at the agricul-
tural college closed today and about
200 students left for their homes.
These courses, arranged especially for
the benefit of the farmer boys who
cannot spart the time to take advan-
tage of the entire years work, began
Jan. 2 and have lasted for period
of ten weeks.
The enrolment for the two winter
short courses this year has been quite
large and with their closing tonight
the number of students on the big
campus will decrease quite perceptibly.
1t is felt that the courses this year
have been particularly instructive and
interesting to all who have attended,
and many go home with feeling of
regret that 1t Is over. Spring farm
work now demands the attention of
the students, however, so that the
terms could not have been longer even
though the courses provided a longer
period of study.
President Worst, who is now deliv-
ering a series of addresses in the
western part of the state along the N.
p. line, is expected home tomorrow
night

Investigations Of Prof. Z. F. Ladd for
the month Of February, just compiled
and edited by Miss Alma K. johnson,
were issued yesterday by the food de-
partment of the A. c.
Professor Ladd's investigations
along this line have been exhaustive
and are particularly valuable to deal
ers in soft drinks in regard to the
legality of the sale of certain bever-
ages which have not been re-register-
ed. A department of the bulletin con-
tains mention Of certain cold storage
food products, salt vet, sardines label
ed for weight and other canned foods,
including an analysis of tomatoes.
In regard to the matter of re-regis-
tration, Professor Laid says In his
pamphlet: There seems to have been
a slight misunderstanding with regard
to the Interpretation of one of the
preceding statements. namely, that
when a brand of whisky, rum, gin,
etc, has been registered at a fee Of
$780,, further registration in either of
these groups may be made at SIS.
This has been interpreted by some to
mean lhdI IL a pIOuuCL mas D6eu reg
istered in preceding year at $3.50,
then a re-registration may be made
for the present year at SIS, which is
not the case; but rather that when
one brand, either of whisky, brandy,
rum, gin, etc, has been registered at
$3.50, additional brands OF whisky, rum.
gin, etc, may be registered at SIS for
the same year"
Following this announcement a long
list Of beverages which have been
properly re-registered is given for the
benefit Of all dealers, together with a
list of those cancelled, so that all sales
may be made intelligently.
Tables OF analyses conclude the bull
letin which pertain to the different
waters in all parts Of the state and
showing the volatile and mineral solids
and chlorides as salt in each.

YOUNG MAN Was
FRIEND in NEED
cUL5ERTsoN CASHIER, WANTED
FOR EM5EZZLEMENT, SAVED
BY FRIEND.

Grand Forks, n. D., March 10.-Badly
in need Of money and with a large
reward just within his grasp, young
man, known in Grand Forks, Tuesday
night let his opportunity go by And
all because he was friend. Given an
opportunity to sell a friends liberty
for several hundred dollars, himself
working for a few bob" per week and
able to use all money that came his
way, he hesitated a few brief seconds,
weighed everything in the balance, and
quietly stood by, watching the needle
slowly move toward friendship" and
sacrifice"
With his friendship outweighing the
longing for money, the young man
passed on his way forgetting, as far
as he could, that there was such a
man as Verne H. Bostwick and that
he was wanted for the alleged embez-
zling of $4,000. This, in brief, tells
how Bostwick, cashier of the Farmers
and Merchants bank or Culbertson,
Mont, who is wanted by Montana
officials on a charge of embezziement,
left Grand Forks Tuesday night with
out the local authorities knowing any
thing about it.
According to the friend" he can be
designated in no other way, Bostwlck
was in Grand Forks Tuesday night for
short while, leaving on one of the
evening trains for parts unknown.
Last summer the young man in
question was in Culbertson for some
little time. While there he met Verne
III. .Bostwick, talked with him, enjoyed
automobile rides and other forms OF
amusement with the bank cashier.
Leaving Culbertson, he left behind him
his acquaintance. among them Bost-
wick, never suspecting that he would
meet him in such a short time under
such circumstances.
But fate, the master playwright.
had prepared a plot, in which the love
of money was to be weigher against
true devotion to ones friend, for these
same two persons to act out at an
other place and under conditions that
made both stand like statues for a
few brief seconds and wonder-the
one wondering whether he should
summon the police and send his friend
to jail; the other wondering If his time
had come at last or If he was to be
allowed few days longer. Neither
wondered very long, and in the end,
the one walked away, leaving behind
an opportunity to make few hundred
dollars; the other walked away, leav-
ing behind friend,who refused to sell
another's liberty.

ZONE OF THE BEST
IN ALL AMERICA"
THIS CITY rs HIGHLY coMPLl-
MENTE0 AS HAVING A HALL
WITH EXCELLENT ACOUSTIC
PROPERTIES SECOND TO NONE
IN THE COUNTRY.

I'm Fargo n. D., there is a hall
that is one of the best and finest for
acoustic properties that there is in
all America" said a noted singer to
Clarence Eddy, the great organist, who
appears at the Masonic temple this
evening.
Mr.. Eddy arrived in the city yester-
day and during the stay here he was
the guest of the Masons of Fargo. One
of his first requests was to meet Mr.
Stone, that he might see the new music
hall in the new Stone building, as this
was the room which the great singer
had referred to when she appeared in
concert in the east with Mr.. Eddy.
Mr.. Eddy, speaking of the vocaIist's
regard for the Stone han, said she was
highly enthused over it. She admitted
that 1t was smaller than many of the
great concert halls. yet in her opinion
the acoustic properties of the room
were among the finest in America.

Fargo people who are interested in
Medford, Ore, and the Rogue river
valley, will be glad to learn that the
Oregon Trunk railway Of the Great
Northern which is headed for Medford
has now been opened as far as Meto-
Illus. The line runs from Saddleridge
to Metolius and there is every indi-
cation that it will be completed to
Medford before fall. Grading is also
under way from the Medford end Of
the line. No expense has been spared
in laying the road, which is remark
able for its easw grades.
The opening Of this line marks an
interesting stage in the railroad war
that is being waged In that section be-
tween the Hill and Hartman interests,
In which the Hill interests at the
present time seem to have the better
of the argument.
N. A. Burdick, formerly with the
Hall Robertson Hardware Co, as credit
man will start bank at Metolius this
summer and A. j. Mckenzie, formerly
business agent for the Fargo Carpen-
ters' union is now engaged in. contract

GRAND TRUNK
HAS CHARTER
into PORTAL
May Use G. N. Line From
Surrey to Fargo
Direct Line From Canadian
Northwest to Chicago

Minot, N D., March 1O.-Presi-
dent Sherman of the commercial
club, who has been investigating
the Grand Trunk Pacific line TO
Minot, has discovered that that
transcontinental line has already
secured charter to run into Por-
tai and that under the terms of the
charter the road is supposed to
build to the boundary line this year.
The plan OF the railroad, so it
is understood, is to run a line
across to Ignite, which is only
nine miles from Portal, and thence
to buy the Crosby line to Berthold
and make traffic arrangements with
the Great Northern to Minot and
use the Great Northern line over
the Minot- Fargo cutoff to the
twin cities and Chicago.
The more / investigate this mat
ter, the more / am satisfied that
this proposition is of immense i'm
portance to Minot," said Mr.. Sher-
man. There is every indication
that the railroad means business,
and it is up to the people of Mi
not to show that they want the
road here
1t is probable that representa-
tives of the commercial club and
the business interests of Minot will
be sent to the head Office of the
Grand Trunk Pacific railroad and
put the matter up to the officials.

GEO. A. MILLER
IS FOUND GUILTY
MILLER FINED $50 AND COSTS
FOR KEEPING sAwDY HOUSE
LARGE CROWDS ATTRACTED AT
HEARING--WlLL APPEAL THE.
CASE.

This morning in the police court be-
fore Judge Miller, George A. Miller,
was found guilty of running bawdy
house and was fined $50 and costs.
Men began to arrive at the court
room early and before the hour set
for the hearing more chairs were car.
ried into the room to seat the visitors.
Every available space in the court
room was crowded with the curious
crowd and in the hall way men Sc
cured chairs on which to stand 80
that they might look over the heads
of those in front Of them.
All the testimony offered in the case
was put up by the city, and the de-
Tense offered no evidence. and cues
toned a very few of the witnesses that
were introduced by the-plaintiff. When
the plaintiff rested the defendant did
likewise and no sensational testimony
was sprung by the attorney for Mr..
Miller. as was expected by some.
Miss Emma CAN'T was the chief wit
ness in the case. She testified that
she had lived at the house controlled
by Miller, and that in her immoral re-
lations with men, the defendant had
never offered any objections. She
further stated that he was present
many times on these occasions and that
he received money which she gave
him.
A number Of other witnesses who
were on the stand testified regard
ing the character Of the Miller house
All stated that II bore a bad reputa-
ton and was generally known as d
sporting house.
Miller's attorney gave motive of an
appeal of the case and it will be heard
later in the district court. His bond
was placed at 500 and he furnished
the necessary amount, which allows
him his liberty.
The case has been hanging fire
three different days this week. Failure
ON the part of the attorneys to be
in the city has caused the postpone
ment of the hearing from day to day.

FIRE DESTROYS
old LANDMARK
BUSINESS PORTION OF LANGDoN
HAD A CLOSE CALL I'M
BAKERY FIRE.

Langdon, N. D., March 10.-Fire
wiped out one of Langdon's old land
marks when 1t visited the business sec
ton of the city and reduced to charred
ruins the Langdon bakery of Ed Brown
and the Pantorium owned by n. F.
Charter and operated by Phil Schulz
ties. The Pantorium had only moved
into it's new location recently, the Owl
restaurant of A. ]. Petit having until
lately occupied the building.
The fire had gained quite a Roadway
in the bakeshop at the rear Of Browns
bakery when the blaze was first dis
covered at about S:45 in the evening.
1t was first noticed by Mrs. James Nc
Lauchlin and Miss Eva Souch on their
way home from the Methodist church.
A general alarm was quickly sounded
by the fire whistle at the light plant
and the department was early on the
scene with two lines Of hose laid and
their chemical engine.
When the firemen arrived the flames
were breaking through the roof and
windows of the bakeshop. Water was
turned on the fire both at the front
and rear of the building before the
charge from the chemical had been all
expended and inside Of thirty minutes
the ruins were literally flooded with
water.
The prompt work and admirable ef-
forts put forth by the fire fighters saved
Langdon from what threatened to be
the biggest conflagration in its history.
The Columbia hotel on one side and the
t.o,dvxyo 70 M Ha yYrneo store re T0c.. ~
Mcdonald on the other were both on
fire several times and the firemen
certainly done wonderful work in con-
fining the fire to the bakery building.
when the entire block from the Column
bia corner to the Red Front store was
thought to be doomed.
"A second alarm at midnight found
the adjoining building imperiled, but
the smouldering debris that had again
been famed into flames was put out
by the watchmen left on duty, without
the services of the department being
needed.
The building destroyed was first
erected in 1888 by Andrew Timley Of
Park River, for saloon. In later years
it had been leased by A. SchuIke ais a
grocery and also as the II. ID. Parson's
flour and feed store. It was the prop
erty of DIR. e. 1. Donovan and carried
no insurance, the owner having decided
to let the policies lapse short time
ago owing to the excessive high rate IN
that block. Ed Brown, proprietor Of
the Langdon bakery had insurance on
his stock fixtures and bakeshop that
amounted to $1,000, which will par
TALLY cover his loss.
