YOUNG MAN CHARGED WITH
MURDER HAS DATE SET FOR
HIS HEARING.

Hillsboro, N. D., Oct. 2.-Judge Pol
lock Of Fargo has called special jury
term of Court at, Hillsboro for Nov. Z
and at that time the trial Of McLain
Cooper, charged with murder, will be
heard.
1t will be remembered that during
the summer Cooper was left at home
by his father who went east. One day
the young man became engaged in a
wordy fight with the foreman of the
farm, Frank Ross. The result of the
fight was that Cooper shot the fore
man.
Ross was taken to the hospital where
he fingered between life and death.
The ball had gone through the spinal
chord and it was hardly thought that
he would live. After several weeks he
died and Cooper was then charged with
murder.
Cooper comes from one of the best
families in Trail county and his people
are 'reputed to be wealthy.
Tracy Bangs has been retained as the
chief counsel to defend young Cooper.
The Grand Forks lawyer achieved a
great deal of fame in his noted acquit.
tai of Judge Cowan. T. g. Swenson
of Hillsboro will also be one of the
assistant counsels for Cooper. G. A.
Yyche, the states attorney Of Trail
county will prosecute the case.

news that he is still alive will be a
source OF much pleasure to his many
Ramsey county friends. It seems that
after leaving Crazy seventeen years
ago he walkedsan the way to Washing
ton where he remained some time try
ing to get a pension, which we believe
he was entitled to, but which we under.
stand has never been granted. For
many years past he has been a wander
er, drifting back to Lakota to see his
wife once more. He was bright man
and had many good traits, and was
liked and respected by all who knew
him. Very little is known of his ear
ly career, but it is known that he was
a soldier in the war of the Rebellion
and served for about four years, ad-
vancing from the rank of private to
that of lieutenant anu was in many
heavy engagements. He was man of
rare education and was a writer Of
some ability. We we'll remember the
time he left Crazy and how anxious
his wife and friends were about him
and no wa search was kept up for
many months to locate him, but with
out avail.

OF N. P. PASSENGER
NO. 2 SAYS SUSPECT IS THE
RIGA-- MAN.

Fargo, N. D., Oct. 4.-The identifi-
cation of John Young by sam Olson,
engineer of Northern Pacific train No.
2, as one of the men who held up the
passengers July 10 last, together with
confession and the confederation of
numerous minor details regarding the
crime, are responsible for the state
ment by McFetridge, chief of Northern
Pacific detectives, and Special Agent
Callahan, that Young is the man want
ed for the crime.
Young, who was arrested at Neenah
Wis, is in the county Jail here awaiting
trial in November. From time to time
he has been visited by different persons
who were concerned in the incidents
of the night of July 10, and from the
evidence already collected the authori-
ties are certain of conviction on the
charge of. robbery.
Robbery in the first degreeO is the
charge placed against Aoung, which
surprised the man very much, but
Judge Roberts, before whom the pre-
liminary hearing was held, explained
to him that the North Dakota statute
makes no distinction and knows no such
crime as train robbery. Young is be-
ing charged with robbery from Conduc-
tor Wheeler.
Officials and the general public have
advanced numerous theories about the
man, aginst whom the charge is laid,
being mentally deficient. They base
their opinions on the information given
out originally that Young's confession
was voluntary, but the true story of the
arrest was only given out yesterday.
Young was arrested at Neenah, Wis,
while drunk and laxative, say the
police and detectives. In the course Of
his remarks he said something about
the train robbery in North Dakota,
Taking long chance, Officer Brown of
the Neenah force, who made the arrest,
consulted the "rogues' gallery" and
the description Of the man arrested
and Joliet former convict conceded.
Further questioning and work on the
part of the Neenah police resulted in
the bringing back to Fargo Of Young.
Engineer Olson visited Young in his
cell and identified hm as one of the
men whom he fought in his cab and one
Of whom shot him in the side.

ATTORNEY GENERAL MILLER
DECLARES SCHOOL SANTA
TION LAW VOID,

North Dakota's new law compelling
the adoption Of certain sanitary regula.
ions in school houses, public halls and
public buildings, is null and void, Opin.
ion to that effect is. rendered in a state.
ment supplied to the state superinten-
dent OF public instruction by the attor-
ney general.
In this measure the legislature sought
to compel the regular fumigation of
public buildings, but it is declared void
and imperative in the following let
ter to the superintendent of public in
struction from Attorney General Mil
Ter:
'You have called attention to chap
ter sxty-three of the laws of 1911 and
asked for an opinion on it's meaning. It
appears from the title that the act pre.
scribes the duties Of local school boards
relative to sanitary regulations of school
houses, churches and public halls and
from the body of the bill that it pre-
scribes the duties of the boards of
health relative to such buildings. Init
says nothing whatever regarding the
duties OF school boards. The latter sub
Ject is not embraced in, the title to the
enrolled bill and the measure is there.
fore in my judgment invalid.
Mistake in Engrossing.
IL have traced the course Of this
measure through the legislature and
find that it was several times amended
and that, as finally passed, the title of
the bill covered sufficiently the subject
matter embraced within the body of
the bill. 1t appears therefore, that an
error was made in the enrolment of
the bill, so that when submitted to the
governor for his signature it was diff.
ferent measure than when passed by
the legislature. Under our constitution.
the title is an essential part Of the
act, and it has been held by a number
OF courts of this country that where the
title Of the enrolled bill differs mater.
tally from the title of the act as pass.
ed, it does not become a law. It has
also been held in a large number of
cases that when the bill approved by
the governor and authenticated as the
law requires, is materially different
from the bill passed by the two houses,
it will be held a nullity. See Lewis
Sutherland Statutory CONSTRUCTION, sec.
ton ffty-two and cases cited.
GIN view of this discrepancy be.
tween the title of the cat and the BODY
thereof, I am satised that the law
must be held null and void.''

DETECTIVES WORKING ALONG
NORTH DAKOTA BOUNDARY
LINE FOR EVIDENCE.

Mona Lisa, the famous painting stol-
en- from Paris, may have been SNUG
gled across the Canadian border at
some point in North Dakota.
So strongly convinced have certain
detectives who are at work on the case
been that such was the case that they
have spent some little time in inves-
tigation, but it is understood that they
have just departed from the state, un-
able to find any trace of the painting.
That there are places along the Dor
der of this state that could readily he
taken advantage of by the holders of
the painting should they chose to do
so is readily admitted and the detec-
tives were working on that theory.
Their operations extended practically
along the entire state border, from

MORE DETAILED ACCOUNT Of THE
DISAPPEARANCE OF GERALD AVERY

No trace has thus far been secured
of Gerald avery, the man who was alb.
sent from his. home for twenty years
and then returned for. an hours visit,
only to leave again as mysteriously as
he came. A more detailed account of
Gerald Avery comes from the Edmore
Herald-News and is as follows:
Twenty years ago, Gerald Avery
then man Of about 60 years, lived
with his wife and adopted son in the
village of Crazy, where he was engaged
in carpenter work, but finally decided
to canvas the county in the interest of
school supply concern. He procured
horse and buggy and started out, but
never returned until last week when
he walked into the home of his brother.
in-law, John Burlingame, where his
wife is still living. He was nearly
blind and deaf, but was readily recos-
nized after his long continued absence.
He enjoyed dinner and short visit,
and then started down town and dis.
appeared again just as mysteriously as
before.

The commissioners, when seen by a

were in favor of making the appropria-

immense amount Of business which had
to be disposed of in short time. The
appropriation will likely be made at

PREPARED FOR THE WORLD

guidance will be great factor in adj
justing them to such complete change
in their mode of living,'' Mr.. Hill So
liloquized. And straightway he secured
the United States governments ap-
proval to have the most promising pro-
gressives of the Blackfeet tribe select
ed to go to the New York Land Show,
that they might see for themselves
what agriculture really means. What
impressions the redmen will carry back
to their prairie homes is matter of
much anticipation to the son of the
great railway builder, who hit upon
this avenue to civilization as a practic-
al means in the "white man IS process
of assimilation.
The last grass dance Of this pictur-
esque people was ceremony not soon
to be forgotten by the few white peo-
pie who were fortunate enough to be
present. The weird ceremonies were
participated in by 5000 redskins. Many
Of them are land wealthy and all are
regarded as an Industrious people. The
grass dance is Of a reAgious nature. The
Indians think it calls the attention of
the gods to the fact that the tribe de-
sires good season, with plenty of
grass for their horses. In the old days
the welfare of the buffalo was the cen
trail idea of this prayerful religious GER
emony, for if there It plenty of
grass the large herds of bison wouldn It
come into this country. And scarcity
Of buffaloes meant hunger to the In
dams, no clothing, lack of skins with
which to make tepees, beds and many
other things which the redmen had to
have. So, there was some sense to this
trodding Of the grass in their appeal
to the Gods, the Indians thought.
But the buffalo is gone and these
grass dancers are following fast upon
the same trail to the happy hunting
grounds.
When the yellow, sun burned plains
Of the Blackfeet reservation are turn
ed over by the pillow and seed is plant
ed, there probably will be small groups
of grass dancers here and there, while
the Indians wait for their grain to
come forth.
Let US all join in the prayer that
the gods" shall hear them and that
great fields of wheat and fax appear
for these transformed people.
The Blackfeet are the highest type of
Indian. Their integrity, fortitude,
chastity and admirable dignity place
them on a PEDESTAL above all other
tribes Of savages. The Blackfoot is a
frank, simple being, yet he is unusual.
ly cunning when the occasion demands.
His sense of humor is keen and of the
hard impressive kind. Some of his Gus.
toms are extremely comical. For ex.
ample, a Blackfoot must never meet
his mother-in-law. Should he ever get
his "wires crossed" and meet her un.
awares, the tribal customs penalties
him by demanding that he make her a
handsome gift. So, the Blackfoot has
even better reason than the white man
for avoiding his mother.in-law.

Austin, Pa, Oct. 2.-Estimates of the
loss of life in the food, that over
whelmed the town Of Austin Saturday,
diminished when an army Of volun-
teer rescuers worked its way into the
masses of wreckage. In .ue opinion o.
many on the ground the number of
deaths will not reach $50 while the less
hopeful place the list at 800.
The property loss will exceed $6,00O,-
600 and it is the general opinion that
the town never will be rebuilt Two,
at least, of the largest plants will not
be reconstructed and a majority of the
business men of the place have been
financially ruined.
Place Loss of Life at. $50.
State officials in charge of the stu.
alton after hasty canvass Of the
population, today expressed the be-
lief that not more than $50 are dead
in the wreckage. Only sixteen bodies
have been recovered up to late hour.
The 500 men who had toiled all day
yesterday in heavy rain storm ali.
andoned their task with the coming of
darkness. Although they had moved
mighty heaps of debris, fought fire and
worked on without food seeking to re-
move the bodies of the dead, less than
a score had been found. A battalion Of
state police then surrounded the town
an dino person without pass was per-
mitted to enter.
