rhage of the brain and who was found

GREETED very much his untimely end.
He is survived by a widow and one
child, who reside in Dilworth.

FROM ARGENTINE
TO INSPECT CROPS

One Of the visitors Of note in the
city Saturday was M. +. Anderson Of
Buenos Ayres, capital OF the Argen-
tine republic, who was the guest Of
Prof. IT, r. Bolley OF the agricul-
tural college. The purpose of Mr.. An
derson's visit was to obtain certain
facts about the work OF the A. G..
and especially the adaptability Of GER
tain grains in certain soils.
While Professor Bolley made no
close inquiries into the motives which
prompted the visit OF his interesting
guest, 1t was gathered that the South
American was making a tour of the
United States inspecting the different
soils in various parts of the con-
tinent and of the treatment Of grains
and crops in these respective places,
Mr.. Anderson came to Fargo from
the central west where he had Just
paid visit at Ohio State university
at Columbus and Purdue university
at Lafayette, Ind. Before that he
had visited some OF the higher edu-
cational institutions in New York and
Massachusetts. He seemed particu-
larly interested in North Dakota lands
and its adaptability to the raising Of
alfalfa.
Gathered from his statements in the
course of his conversation with Pro-
lessor Bolley, 1t was taken that the
land conditions In Argentine, espe-
cially in the immediate vicinity sur
rounding Buenos Ayres, is quite sim
liar to that Of North Dakota. He
made close inquiries into the wheat
and flax crop conditions for all these
things seemed pertinent to the pur-
pose of his mission.
From Fargo, Mr.. Anderson went
west, where he viii visit Montana
lands and then go south into Utah,
looking over the conditions there.
Professor Bolley found him quite in
teresting and the two gentlemen en-
joyed a delightful afternoon together.
each imparting to the other some very
information about the soils
Of their respective countries.
las never make 1t a practice or
inquiring closely into the details or
motives Of any of my callers visits,
do not really know just what was
his business" said Professor Bolley
to a Forum representative today. II
surmised that he must be making
some extensive crop and land condi-
tons inspection Of the United States,
however"
Mr.. Anderson told the A. @. pro-
lessor, that while he was a native of
Argentine, he was in reality full
blooded Scotchman, coming of Scotch
though he had lived all his
life in Argentine, and his present resi-
dence is at the Foreign club, Buenos
Ayres.

5roomhaII's Report.

Liverpool, Aug. zI.-Wheat market
opened with a steady undertone, al
though values were u lower to II
higher. The firmer American cables
on Saturday were Offset here by the
heavy American shipments and es-
pecially liberal American shipments To
Liverpool. Following the opening the
market became extremely nervous and
advanced Is a Is with the principal COW
ering In October. This buying was
stimulated by private bullish cables
from America. Later a decline oc-
Cured with profit taking and the ad-
vance was lost. Selling was prompted
by the heavier worlds shipments than
expected, better reports from Russia
and settlement of the railroad strike
here. There was, however g very
small enquiry for forward shipments.

NEGRO SCHOOL PROSPERS
Corner Stones for Four New Build ings Laid at the KowaIiga (Ala.)
 School for Negroes.

Montgomery, Ala, April 29.-Corner stones for four new buildings were laid at the Kowaliga School for Ne groes in Elmore county. This school was founded 70 years ago by John Benson and is located on a plantation where he once worked as a slave.
 His idea was to teach negroes to become skilled mechanics, also to teach them improved methods in farm ing. The colony now numbers 1000 and holds body of land nine miles long and six miles wide, on which are some of the most up-to-date and pro- ducuVe plantations in the south.
 William E. Benson, a son of the founder, is head of the school and is following his fathers original plan of teaching negroes useful trades rather than giving them an academic educa- tion. Sawmills. turpentine factories and other industries are operated to keep men engaged in growing cotton busy when that crop does not require their attention.

D|Az IS PEACE PROBLEM
TIME PRESIDENT SHALL SERVE
 MAY TROUBLE.
Madero Insists Executive Must Re sign Soon as Quiet Is Restored
 Rebels Fear Reyes.

Fl Paso, Tex. April 2S.-When the ofhclal peace commissioners, who have not yet been named, get together here it is very probable there will be at least one difficult matter for them to settle, if they can, and that is the length of time President Diaz is to retain his seat after hostilities cease.
 General Madero at first declared that President Diaz must resign first. but with the coming of the members Of his family and the arguments they advanced, he changed his position sufficiently to state that he would not insist upon the presidents immediate retirement.
 He went no further into the subject but 1t is known that privately he in. formed members of his family that neither he nor his under officers could consent to the president filling out his present term, which has yet five years to run.
 All efforts to learn Madero's idea as to how long the president should he allowed to remain in power in or der to prevent disorder, and possibly anarchy, have been unavailing. He assents to the proposition that Diaz should remain at the helm until com. plete tranquility has been restored. but holds to the view that following the signing of peace articles a specific period should be agreed upon for the president to accomplish what Is ex pected of him, and that he should then retire to public life.

WIFE KILLS HER HUSBAND NO MOTIVE APPARENT FOR THE
 DEED. Leo B. James Killed in What Was to Have Been His Flu
 ture Home.

St. Louis, April 29.-A deep veil of mystery shrouds the killing of Leo B. James, who was shot to death by his bride of five months in their new home at 4457A Lexington avenue. After sending three bullets from re- volver into his form she ran two blocks through the rain, bare-footed and clad only in her night dress, to bear tidings of the tragedy to the mother and sisters of the man she had slain Relatives say they know of no motive for the crime.
 Apparently on the verge of a men, tai breakdown, her mind seemingly overpowered by realization of her deed, the wife, a prisoner, maintains a dazed silence, making no replies to over and over that she had killed her husband, is the only one she made since the shooting.
 The tragedy occurred about o'clock in the morning in the flat which the couple were fitting up as their home. For two weeks they had spent their time moving in their furniture and getting ready to keep house for the first time since their marriage. Ap- parently, it was the happiest time of. their lives.
 James was shot three times, the bull lets inflicting five wounds. The po- lice are of the opinion that he was shot as he lay asleep, the powder blackened wounds showing the re- volver must have been held very close.
 One bullet entered at the corner of the mouth and lodged at the base of the skull Another wound was a little to the right of the center of the fore head, and the bullet had penetrated the brain.
 Another bullet had struck the fore head. but had glanced from the skull and emerged at point about two inches distant A wound was found in the mans left arm.
 James and his wife had spent the early part of the evening at the home of Dr. Floyd Alcorn, a brother-in-law of James. James mother and sis ters reside at the Alcorn home. It was to the Alcorn home that the wife ran after the shooting >

SURRENDER TO OFFICER WITH WARRANT CHARGING CON TEMPT AND GET HABEAS
 CORPUS WRIT.
EACH GIVE $5,00O BOND
Must Answer for Ignoring Illinois State Senate-Will Appeal
 to Higher Court.

Chicago, April 29-Judge Petit in the superior court granted a writ of habeas corpus for Edward Tilden, George M. Benedict and w. c. Cum mings within half hour after they had been arrested by E. H. Hatfield, assistant sergeant-at-arms of the Hi. nois state senate.
 Judge Petit announced when the de- fendants, their counsel and Attorney John J. Healy, representing the Helm committee, appeared that he would be unable to hear the petition at once He set Monday at II a. m. as the date for the hearing and fixed bonds of the three defendants at $5,00O each.
 Hatfield bore warrants charging con- tempt of the Illinois senate for the re- fusal of the three to obey subpoenas duces tecum calling for their appear ance with those books and accounts of the Drovers Deposit National bank and the Drovers' Trust and Savings bank relating to the accounts of Ed ward Tilden.
 Tilden was mentioned in the testi- mony of Clarence Funk of the Inter national Harvester company as the man to whom he was invited to send a subscription for the alleged purpose of aiding in the election of William Lorimer. Hatfield made no attempt to arrest the three upon his arrival here, and they surrendered, accompa. nied by their counsel, Nathaniel c. Sears. They went at once to the court room, where the writ was issued.
 Among other things, the subpoenas were attacked on the ground that they were not supported by an oath or af- firmation; that they did not describe particularly the books showing the receipts and disbursements of money during May, June, July, August and September; that the Helm committee had no power to investigate the con- duct of any member of the present general assembly and that the sub. poenas were not signed by the presi. dent of the senate.
 Records Are Wanted.
 The senate committee wants Tilden to testify concerning transactions in his personal check ag account about the time of the alleged distribution of the Sl0O,O00 fund used to put Lori. mer over' for the United States sen ate in the Illinois legislature. These accounts, it is said, will show how the money was handled.
 The other two men are wanted to snow the books of the Drovers' De- posit National bank for the same reason.
