STARK COUNTY EXHIBIT
TAKEN TO ST. PAUL

The second industrial exposition for
the state of North Dakota closed last
Saturday at Bismarck. 1t was success
and many people from all over the
state and from other states came to see
the exhibits. 1t has been one of the
most beneficial institutions of the state
because it gave the citizens and farm
ers an idea of the agricultural possibil-
tiles Of this country and was an incen-
tive to raise better Grain and more
varieties and better quality of vege
tables.
There were fifteen counties in the
state competing and five won prizes as
follows: Eddv first, Richland second,
Barnes third, Morton fourth and Dunn
and Hettineer tied for fifth.
The Stark county exhibit. in charge
of q. S. Cryne, was unique in its dis
play of grasses. The exhibit has been
disposed of and on Monday J. B. Slos-
son took it 10 St. Paul for the coming
Land Show. The indigenous erasses in
the Stark exhibit were the only grasses
shown at the exposition and Mr.. Slos-
son thinks they will be great drawing
card in st. Paul.

w. L. Richards had business matters
to attend to in the country south on
Tuesday and took Justice A. P. Folsom

This was Mr.. Folsom's first visit to
the Cannon Ball country since leaving
there about 20 years ago and it was
hard for him to realize that it was the
same place.
Mr. Folsom came to.New England in
1888 from Vermont City, S. D., being
one Of the directors of the Vermont
Colony. locating in Edmonds county,

MRS. MATT HECkER HAPPY
LEFT HOSPITAL THIS week

This week Mrs. Matt Hecker of this
city was able to leave St. Joseph's hos
pital and return to her home. She had
been in the hospital three weeks and
comes out new woman. gaining in
strength every day.
The history of the case is interesting
and reflects much credit for the hospital
management and the three local physi
clans who cared for the lady during
her two operations. She had been ill
for about three years and for more than
year prior to last February she was
confined to her bed. MIR. Hecker took
his wife to Rochester in the spring and
and after seven days attention there,
the physicians said that they could not
do anything for her and advised that
she be taken home.
About two months ago the case wa
thoroughly gone over with the family
physician, and Mrs. Hecker decided
that she would 90 to St. Joseph's hos
pital and submit to an operation. Il
was found that second operation
would be necessary, and now. at the
end of seven weeks of hospital care, the
lady is in fair way to regain he
former good health.
MIR. Hecker is night car repairer fo1
the N. P. at this place and a citizen o.
good standing. Mr.. and Mrs. Hecke
have four children. the oldest daughte
being IA years old. and they all fee
happy to think that the mother has a
last found the help that she needed

and MIR. Folsom could tell many tales of
the early days around New England.
The Folsom store was the principal
pl ace of business on the Cannon Ball
river at the time of the Sioux Indian
scare in midwinter the year of 189O-91.
A company of regulars were sent to
New England but they did not see any
Indians. The government withdrew the
soldiers but left an Indian policeman
for some months. All is changed now,
and, although Mr.. Folsom has kept in
close touch with every development in
the Cannon Ball city, yet it was hard
for him to believe it the same place.
The only person living there now of Mr..
Folsom's time is Mrs. L. M. P. Girls
void.
Mr.. Folsom said that great deal of
grain was coming in to the New Eng
land elevators and that everybody
seemed happy and prosperous. The
average wheat yield in that vicinity
he said, was about Is bushels to the
acre.

DR.. BEACH TO eLENDIVE
IN CHARGE OF R. R. HOSPITAL

Sometime before the first of the year
or as soon as the new N. P. hospital
is completed at Glendive. Dickinson
will lose one of her best ply sicians and
SURGEONS. 1t has been recently learned
that DR.. r. H. Beach is to be placed
in charge of the fine new railroad hos
pital in the metropolis of the Yellow
stone Valley.
Dr. Beach was with the N. P. hos
pital at Brainerd for over two years
before coming here as partner of DR..
v. H. Stickney about three years ago.
He is graduate Of the medical de-
partment of the University of Michigan
from which place he came to Brainerd.
He is an able physician and is recog.
nized as very skilled surgeon, and ii
is quite an honor for so young man to
be placed at the head of the big rail.
road hospital of the Yellowstone divis-
ion.
The hospital at Glendive is the only
one between Brainerd and Missoula,
maintained by the Northern Pacific and
when completed it will be one of the
best in the northwest and quite draw
ing card for the Montana city.
Dickinson will regret to lose Dr.. Beach
and his wife from her business, socia
and professional circles but will con
fratulate the doctor on being chosen fol
this work and the N. P. for chosing 81
capable man.

A PECULIAR HAIL CASE
co. SAYS SEEDING WAS LATE

W. T. Hendren of Belield has a pe-
culiar unsettled hail loss with the
Northwestern Fire & Marine of Mime
apolis. He had 20 acres of fax insured
and in July the crop was cut down to
the ground by hail. The adjuster was
out and wanted to settle on basis of
about one-third loss, but Mr.. Hendren
said he had suffered total loss and if
he could not have a full loss adjustment
he, would not take anything. The rains
brodght the fax up again and there was
good growth of straw but the frost
struck the crop on the oath of September
and. of course it did not amount to any
thing. The agent was out a second or
third time and finally advised Mr.. Hen
dren that the fax was sown too late
in June to mature. The most of the
seeding was done around the 18th to
10th of June and certainly the grain
would have matured all right if the
hail had not cut it down three to four
weeks after the seed was sown.
The Northwestern Fire & Marine is
looked upon as good company and it
is likely that the officers will see that
Mr.. Hendren gets pay for his crop in
the end. If the company objected Ia
the lateness of the time the grain was
seeded. il should have been made known
to the assured before his farm was Wis
tied by the hail storm.

POET OF NORTH DAKOTA
EnTERrAINs HERE TONIGHT

j. W. Foley, the poet laureate of
North Dakota. will give an entertain
ment at the high school auditorium to-
night (Friday) at 8 O'Clock. Mr.. Foley
is here under the auspices of the Dick
inson public library and the proceeds
from the sale of tickets will 20 to the
magazine fund. The tickets to this
entertainment are so cents for adults
and Is cents for children and no doubt
the attendance will be large as Mr..
Foley's readings are always popular.
A Fargo paper said of him not long ago
His literary secret looks easy to
unwind. The joys of retrospect, the
days that were fairer than ever again. ,
the intense and blissful pleasures of
childhood, sun-filled days passed in the
open. juvenile hero worship. the safe
folding of motherly care, paths of tru-
ant romance, grocery store forums of
village solons, Elmer Dow and Abner
Sykes and Hi Griggs-it looks remark
ably familiar.
THE fact remains. however, tina no
other poet has shown the skill to ham
die these trite matters so deftly as to
give them the semblance of puIsing life
that Foley does. Whitcomb Riley came
the nearest to him in this kind of crea-
tion, but Foley's hand is surer; with
him romance does not lapse through
the stage of fantasy to the merely fan
tastic.
Whatever fate befalls the cause of
pure literature in North Dakota one
thing the state cannot be robbed of is
that it is the home of the American
poet of the common life, James Foley.

cago with bullet wound in his ri ght
side as the result of an attempted muir
der by John Schrank. The colonel's
condition is not serious and the only
fear now is of blood poisoning. This
will end his personal campaign and he
will be taken to his home in Oyster
Bay as soon as his condition permits.
The attempt to end the Colonel's life
was made Monday night in front of the
Gilpatrick hotel. in Milwaukee. just as
he was leaving to address meeting in
the auditorium. At the time the shot
was fred Roosevelt was waving his sal
utation to the crowds, but Immediate

velt, was the hero of the occasion,

ing his firing second shot, and hold
ing him until the officers took charge.
When his friends tried to persuade
Mr.. Roosevelt to cancel his speech, at
Milwaukee, he said:

it kills me-if fall on the platform. I
have a message to deliver and it may
be my last chance.

and bleeding flesh. Colonel Roosevelt
bandaged it with a handkerchief and
waved again to. the crowd. His speech
occupied about an hour and half after
which he was taken to a-hospitai foEex-
animation. and them he was taken in
a special car to Chicago.
Examination revealed the fact that
the bullet from a SO rifle had penetra-
ted four inches in the chest wall and
slightly fractured the fourth rib on the
right side. Physicians thought it not
necessary to remove the bullet and al
though the wound is not considered SER
ious, yet he must be kept quiet fol
several days. The colonel's great ply
sical strength works in his favor and he
is in the best of spirits and jests about
his condition.

that proportionately greater number
Of suicides occur among the Jews IN
