DOUBT AS TO IDENTITY OF MUIR.
DERER

There is some doubt as to the iden-
tity of the slayer of Sheriff Moody of
Richland county and the theory that
the man was Chas. Moline, the es-
capped convict transferred from tho
Bismarck penitentiary is now dis
credited. The murdered closely re-
sembles Moline, but is believed te,
be- Burt Hudson, man who has
been employed by two farmers liv-
ing south of Wahpeton and who iden-
titled him Monday. One farmer de-
clares that Hudson worked for him
during September, and part of Oc-
-tober. when Moline was in the asy-
lum at jamestown, from which he
escaped October Sth. A deputy sher-
III from Hankinson also identified
Hudson as the man whom he arrest
ed last fall, on the belief that he
was Moline, the escaped maniac.
W. P. Robins has been appointed
sheriff Of Richland county by the
commissioners.

PINGREE.WILTON LINE

No regular schedule of trains has
been put on the new Pingree-Wilton
line, but business is being trans
acted with considerable regularity
just the same. The last of the con-
struction crews, who have been fin
ishing up the work at Wilton, in
laying side tracks and other neces-
sary work, have left the line for the
winter, as little remains to be done
which cannot be better accomplished
in the spring. A good many farm
ers have commenced to establish
their trading points at the new towns
along the road. The first train of
coal from the Washburn mine went
over the Pingree-Wilton branch last
week, and regular coal trains viii be
run from now on.

MEREDITH DRUG
co. BURNED OUT:
HEAVY FIRE LOSS AT FARGO
TO WELL KNOWN WHOLE.
SALE FIRM

Fargo, N. D., Dec. 8th.-(Special
Fire broke out this afternoon at
one o'clock in the basement of the
Meredith Drug Co., wholesale house,
and before the flames could be ex-
tinguished the entire building was
gutted and it is believed that stock
valued at $150,00O, will prove most
ly a total loss. The building was
also practically destroyed, while the
Porrett building adjoining, was bad
ly damaged by smoke and water; al
so the Dennis Fur store and the
Fargo Candy Co. A loss of 100000
is estimated as the result of the fire,
which originated from cigarette
smoker throwing a lighted cigarette
in the basement of the drug company
building. The building was owned
by Mr.. Porrett, the sewer and wa
ter contractor.

Kindly permit space in your valu-
able paper for an acknowledgment
from this society to the good citi-

mounted to $36.S9, and the Thanks
giving Day offering taken at the un-
ion services and in the Lutheran
church amounted to $45.40, which
is considerably more than last year.
The school Offering was somewhat
less than last year.
Rev. w. p. Canine has been chos-
en- for the honor of a life member
ship in the society.
The Children's Home Society has
in the past taken many children
from Jamestown and placed them in
other counties, and on the other
hand we have placed many. children
from other counties IN the Il best
homes in Jamestown.
In addition to the cash gifts we
have also been notified that boxes of
goods have also been shipped us or
are in course of preparation. James,
town people do not do things by
halves, and their offerings are great
ly appreciated.

ALFRED WOOLEN VISITS JAMES.
TOWN

Alfred Woolen, who was pardon
ed from the Bismarck pen after hav-
ing served out the five years term,
was in jamestown Sunday and spent
several hours in conversation with
acquaintances. Woolen was sent up
from this county for holdup. He
has had a remarkable criminal ca
reer but now declares that he will
quit his former life, and intends
to live straight hereafter. He has
two devices which he expects to pat
ent and hopes that they may become
valuable. One is lock for freight
car doors. Woolen, it will be remem-
bered, made his escape from the
Bismarck pen during his term, but
was recaptured and in the chase
was shot in the leg, but not ser
iously injured. 3
He states he is on his way to his
old honne to see his mother and sis
ter, but does not feel confident of a
very cordial reception.
He threatened, when erst sent tr
the pen, to get even" with several
officials in Jamestown, whom he
thought responsible for getting him
pinched, but is now in a different
frame of mind apparently. He Wis
tied with Chief of Police Oberhueller
and left on an evening train.

NEXT CITY ELECTION IN MARCH

NEXT CITY ELECTION IN MARCH
The new primary law has clause
which causes city elections every
presidential year to be held on the
same day as the presidential primar-
les or the third Tuesday in March.
The clause in the primary law reads:
Every fourth year, when presi-
dental election is held, the time of
all city elections shall take place on
the third Tuesday of March so as to
conform to the provision of this act
(the primary law and in such event
the city officers elected to Office shall
have until the second Tuesday of
April in which to qualify for such
Office"
This change was made in order to
save cities the expense of a double
election.

Identity in Doubt

Supt. Hotchkiss states that it is
not certain as yet whether the mur-
derer of Sheriff Moody, was the pa
tient who was sent to the hospital
from the pen, and who escaped from
the institution soon afterwards. The
description from Richland county
gives the murderer as a man of about
five feet seven inches high, with
dark complexion, while the convict
Moline is described as a man five
feet eleven inches, in height and
light complexion. A better descrip-
tion of the man is to be had at the
penitentiary, than was taken at the
asylum, and it will be known very
soon whether the murderer was Mo-
line or not.

specially desirable class of citizens
many of them being farmers who are
in a position to move west and make
a success of the business of agricul-
ture.
One of the most successful fea-
lures Of the western governors spec
ial is the tremendous amount of
newspaper publicity which it is re-
ceiving. A map Of the United States
showing the pictures of the gover-
nors and the officers of the train,
with the states which are interested
shaded in dark color, has been car
ried in over 500 eastern newspapers,
and the stories of the west, it's pro-
ducts and it's magnificent train,
which have been printed, will prob
ably fill ten thousand newspaper
columns.
1t has been said by the leading
men of every city visited that the
Western Governors Special is one of
the greatest things which has been
done by the west and will do more to
give it publicity than any similar
work which it could possibly have un-
dertaken. The presence of the nine
actual governors on train visiting
another section of the country in the
interests of their own home states,
is something absolutely unpreceden-
ted in the history of the United
States or any other country, and the
cities which are visited seem to ap-
preciate that they have been compli-
mented in an unusual way.
At Rochester, IN. W, the Cham
ber of Commerce has changed the
date of their annual banquet in order
to have the governors as their guests
of honor, the guest the year before
having been President Taft, and the
year previous James ]. Hill, Chair
man of the Great Northern Railroad
Co.
From Rochester the train will go
to Syracuse, l.li"a, Schenectady and
Albany, and from there will run
down to Washington, where the
members of the party will attend
the opening session of the National
Rivers and Harbors Congress and
the governors will be the guests of
the president of the United Sotates
at dinner at the White House.
The train will reach New York De-
cember 10th, and start on It's wes-
tern journey the night of December
18th. 1t will return to St. Paul
December 18th.

MONTPELIER TEACHERS MEET.
ING

lNG
One of the best meetings of the
series was held at Montpelier Mon
day. The attendance was excellent,
only two teachers in that section
being absent. Several of the school
patrons, also, were present. Every
one who was on the program was
present and the papers read main
tanned the high standard of interest
and quality which has been OBJ
served throughout the meetings. The
Montpelier school children furnished
several songs and Herman Thon
very kindly played several delight
full selections of his own compost
tion. Mr.. Thon is totally blind and
therefore his musical talents are the
more remarkable.

er had been senteaced to life im-
prisonment in the state penitentiary
for the murder of his father and her
husband near Rugby. They doped
him with poisoned whiskey and thru
the body from the wagon.
Msx Wlpperman, the undertaken
he1has communicated with the
s6Ns penitentiary authorities and
Ge asylum authorities and says there
s1s no doubt that the bandit is Mo-
line. Every mole mark on the face
and every cut on the body, tallies
with the description of Moline," says
Wipperman.
Moline was transferred from the
state penitentiary to the asylum after
petition for trial for lunacy had
been granted and insanity proved.
Further details of the shooting Of
Sheriff Moody are given as follows:
The sheriff accompanied by Deputy
Flathers, George Moore, a driver, and
ce1AC otOAOo, q IOAdAI VI LAO AoAuS
drove to the house where the mur-
derer had taken possession. The
house had been vacated by Steffes
a month ago, and he was living a
mile away at another farm house,
but had left in the vacant house fur
niture, dishes and fuel. A stran-
ger coming along took possession
of the house, and had apparently
lived there for several days undis-
