CHINAMAN TOOK
A QUIET LEAVE
MANY RUMoRs CIRCULATED AS
TO DISAPPEARANCE OF CHAR
LEY CHIN FROM MANDAN.

Mandan, N. D., Jan. 31.-Charley
Chin, the Chinaman who oDerated the
10 X. restaurant on MAR treet be-
tween Collins avenue and first avenue
northwest, took sudden leave recently
and there were many rumors as to
what had become of him. One report
said that he had been found dead in
the basement % his restaurant, prob
amly, from the cause of opium, and an
other was to the effect that he had been
murdered. Neither o fthese rumors
were true but instead Chimfad taken
sudden departure, leaving a number of
bad debts behind, all of which aggre-
gated in the neighborhood of 5000. But
creditors are not worrying since the
fixtures of the restaurant have been
attached and the sale of same will
bring more than enough to pay off his
obligations.
1t has been found out that the "chinE'
is in Miles City, Mont. and that he
will return to the Sity and settle his
accounts.

Aberdeen, s. d., Jan. 31.-Stephen
r Skinner, the man who committed
suicide by shooting on Jan. 6, and
whose body was found on Sunday, was
an early day resident of Aberdeen,
having conducted a restaurant here in
the early sos. Later he left and had
tried his fortune in many of the
states and in Canada, but was unsuc-
cessfuI in nearly every undertaking.
When he returned to Aberdeen in
December he was extremely despOnd-
ent, and had threatened suicide many
times. When he disappeared on Jan.
6 and failed to return, his friends here
feared the worse, and their fears were
realized on Sunday when his body was
found. He was so years of age, and

reside in New York, Mrs. Skinner hav-
ing secured q divorce some time

RECORD PRICE
FOR School Land

Beach, N. D., Jan. 31.-At the school
land sale of pulled off at Medora re-
Gently the record price for school land
in North Dakota was established. If
the sale had been held in Beach there
Woul& have been more competition in
the bidding, but as 1t was there were
plenty bidders and all the good pieces,
with few exceptions, went away above
the appraised value. Pieces apprais-
ed at $12 went as high as $26; pieces
appraised at $40 went to $3s. The
section just south of town sold the
highest, the northwest quarter going
at its appraised value, $50, while tho
other three went at $50, $44 and $40
per acre. The pieces which did not
sell were rough and practically worth
less at the price at which they were
appraised. The thirty-four descrip-
tons sold brought an average price of
$29.93 per acre, the highest going at
$50 and the lowest at $40.
If you have time to sell (YOUR OWN
TIMED, you may find the highest bid

Michigan Arena: We are to see

fiendish murder of little Kenneth Nc
Kenzie was the damning finale to Ane-

meth, IL years old, was set upon by
thugs in that city one evening in Octo-
Der, 1909, his clothing saturated with
kerosene, flame applied, and the with
ing boy left to sustain burns which
cost him his life. Simple and com
pletely helIish, wasn't 1t? Young Nc

a campaign Cor law enforcement, in
which his father bore a prominent part,

Sister MARRIES;
He KILLS SELF

Bismarck, N. d., Jan. 31.-ClarA wy
man, residing near Cannon Ball, south
of this city, committed suicide by
shooting himself through the head. The
only reason for his rash act, so 1t
is alleged, is that he did not want his
sister to marry, and had made the
statement that he would kill himself
If she did so.
Wyman, with his wife, together with
his sister and her husband, had gone
to a dance Friday evening and did not
return to their home, until about 5
o'clock Saturday morning. Wyman and
his brother in law slept on a sanitary
couch downstairs, and the two women
went upstairs. About o'clock the
brother in-faw became aware of the
fact that Wyman had gotten up and
left the house. He did not pay much
attention to this however. and at z
o'clock he arose and dressed and went
out to the barn to do the chores. On
going to the hay stack to get some
hay for the horses he found Wyman's
body. Wyman had placed the muzzle
of shot gun between his eyes, and
pulled the trigger. blowing the top
VI ill5 Hcdu VII. he puileu the IFlSBeF
with his left hand. and the fingers
were still within the trigger guard
when the body was found.
The body was brought to Mandan,
where it was prepared for burial. The
corner decided that no inquest was
necessary. The body will be shipped
to Chicago, where the mother of the
deceased resides, Tuesday morning
where 1T will be inferred. The wife,
and Wyman's sister and her husband
will probably accompany the remains

student of the National Cathedral School
for Boys, received an appointment from
President Taft to the United States
Naval Academy. His father, Capt. E
E. Hayden, is stationed at Key West
Fla.
Hayden entered the Episcopal school

lctics. Last fall he played an end on
the football team and won a &C. in that
sport On the track he showed promise
CT making a good distance man. Al
though he played in only a few games
on the basketball team, Hayden was
an effective guard, and kept up his good
reputation in that sport When the call
for baseball candidates was issued by
Capt Crane, Hayden was the most
promising looking man for one of the
field positions.
He will take the examination on June
&c, and IL he is successful no doubt the
Naval Academy will nave a promising
athlete to join their ranks. The good
wishes of the students of Cathedral
