 Assistance.

Antelope. Ore.-William J. McGreer. who three weeks ago was bitten by a rattlesnake and all but lost his life, Is one of the few men in Oregon who have received severe bites and been able to describe Tn detail how it felt. McGreer was riding the range for horses eight miles east of Antelope, He Is a Clarno (Ore.) stockman. He dismounted at a spring to drink and was bitten in the arm. He has near y recovered and his story, as printed In Crook county newspapers is as fol- ows:
 "Oh. yes. I'm getting along all right; ont the snake died as a result of his adiscretion. I've ridden the range so .ong that no reptile that bites me can survive

 So was she, though she did not think so at the time.
 It takes natural non-husband to fall recklessly in love. The other sort of man stays engaged indefinite ly without uttering a complaint Why, l know man-but never mind him now. The natural non-husband plunges, was what I started to say He wants his happiness right away Perhaps he instinctively feels that that's the the only way he ever will want it.
 Anyway, this man fell headlong in. to those two wells of beauty, his Gene vieve's blue eyes. Genevieve thought him wonderful So he was, but in quite another way
 She blushed and smiled, tucked her pretty head down on his shoulder. and whispered the one little word-o'- dreams. So they were married and lived happy-hum

 James, l was so lonely today, Cant you get home little earlier to- night?"
 Well, James will try. But that night James is sent into the faraways aft CT most important story. He bids tenuous farewell over the culver ing wire. The office likes to send ~ANH "'NSA b'6 pNSAiSS- JdLAcS IA L good man

 And James wakes up to the horrid truth that, after the first. he had not missed GeneyieYe bit. It was not his wedding tour. He was out on as signment

IDENTIFIES THE men
Greek States Positively That the Two
Men Arrested by Local Officers
Held Him Up.

That Harry Wilson and Ralph Lloyd
are the two men who held up Thomas
Kanayeine. Greek. early yesterday
morning, is almost certain from the
fact that the victim has positively
identified them as his two assailants.
Yesterday Kanayeine was taken over
to the Moorhead police station where
the men are being held ana put
through most severe test He was
shown several men that might answer
the description Of his assailants, but
refused the pick any of them out OF
a crowd. However. when Wilson and
Lloyd were shown him In q crowd OF
men. he positively identified them as
the men who robbed him. He could
even tell the Officers which had
struck him and which had gone
through his pockets. as well as recall
some Of the things each OF them had
said.
Wilson and Lloyd will be held on the
other side of the river where they will
have to stand trial for carrying con-
cealed weapons. After the Moorhead
officials are through with them, they
win be brought over here to stand trial
for highway robbery They are the
two men arrested at Dilworth by the
local police when looking for the
thugs.

.FARGOANS WILL
|. BURY The RATCHET
IMPORTANT IMPRoMPTu MEET.
ING or THE TOWN cRIERs AT
COMMERCIAL CLUB LAST NIGHT
PLAN BIG TIME FOR BOOSTERS
DAY HERE.

"Burying the Ratchet" will be the
principal feature of the big boosters
day that is being planned by the active
association of two criers for the COM
mercial club to awaken Fargo. IL the
tentative plans OF the impromptu
meeting of that organization last night
are carried out.
1t was the general concensus OF
opinion at the meeting last night,
which was held at the commercial
club, that something should done that
would thoroughly arouse the entire
community and city and make every
body take an interest In building up
a great Fargo. The meeting was
rather an impromtu affair, as not
much time was given after the call
was sent out about o'clock in the
afternoon, which was too late for pub
lication in The Forum yesterday.
Considering the lateness of the
hour when the meeting was called, the
attendance was excellent and every
body was enthusiastic. 1t will be a
great day for Fargo If all the tenta-
tive plans OF last evening are carried
into effect by the enterprising young
men who compose this organization
and are interested in the city's well
fare.
There will probably be a big street
parade In which all the prominent
business men and officers Of the COM
mercial club and affiliated organiza-
tons will take part, and then 1t has
been planned to haul through the
streets a huge Ratchet, which will be
burned in one of the public squares
and then the ashes buried. That will
be the official end of the Fargo
knockers who are pessimistic In regard
to Fargo and who have always looked
on the darker side. From that time
on, with the burying of the Ratchet,
the movement for a greater Fargo will
actually commence and only the bright
side will be presented and the boosters
will be in power. Everybody will act
for the city's good and future well
fare, on the same principle that the
people of Rochester, N. Y. always
do 1t for Rochester,"
Among other things that viii prob
ably make the day one long to be re-
membered will be the appearance Of
manufacturer and publicity man, who,
If he comes. will stir the pulse Of the
people and create desire to make the
metropolis Of North Dakota city IN
every sense. Mr.. Chalmers is sched-
uled to speak in Pittsburg about Sept.
20, and after that 1t is understood he
intends to come to North Dakota an I
northwestern Minnesota to hunt and
fish, and if it is possible the boost
ers' day of the commercial club will
be planned about that time, so that
the Fargo citizens may have the adj
vantage of his remarks.
Other speakers are being negotiated
with and also some entertainers for the
big booster banquet which will con-
clude the days festivities, though
nothing Of these plans are definite
and are not ready for publication.
I have several parties who want to
rent furnished house. Phone 1744.

KNOWN HERE MEETS WITH
SERIOUS ACCIDENT IN NEW
YoRK-REPoRTED TO BE RE-
COVERING.

ment he stepped into the elevator.
But the elevator was not there and
he plunged down the open shaft, re-
ceiving confusion of both ankles
and severe scalp wound His cry
brought help and an ambulance bore
him to the hospital where skilled
surgeons him.
Patient nurses ministered to him
and although he will suffer much
pain and be unable to walk for several
weeks, everything known to medical
science is being done for DIR. Jones.
Word was received in this city today
by friends who are acquainted with
the famous Korean missionary, and
who will be greatly interested In his
recovery and grieved to learn OF his
serious accident.
