KINGSFORO HERE
Former Professor of the Normal
Addressed the Students During
Chapel Exercises Today.

A prominent visitor at the state
normal school this morning was form
er Prof. A. S. Kingsford, now presi-
dent of the Normal Industrial school
OF North Dakota at Glendale. Mr..
kingsford met the new teachers and
renewed acquaintance with his form
er associates. President Weld was
absent. having been called to ST. Paul
on business.
During the chapel exercises Mr..
k1ngsford was asked to address the
students n after making some gem
eral remarks, perfectly apropos to
the occasion. three days after the
opening of the fall term, he paid q
very high tribute to Frank A. Weld.
the head of the institution. The speak
er told his hearers that he had visited
many of the normal schools in diff
ferent parts of the country, and in
none of them was the warmth of the
educational atmosphere so prominent
and so much to be felt in all depart
ments of the work as 1t was in the
normal school at Moorhead, and he
had no hesitancy in declaring that 1t
was owing to the splendid learning
and personality possessed by the head
Of that school-he was the magnet
for all that was helpful and at all
times he enjoyed the confidence OF
all the workers in the school, teach
erS n students.

$4,000,

Devils Lake. N. D.. Sept. 6.-A deal
was completed yesterday by which
the entire lighting and power proper
ty of the Devils Lake improvement
Co. was transferred to e. c. Corson
of Fargo for a consideration of $175,-
600. Mr.. Corson will take possession
of the property tomorrow, and it is
understood that A. B. Kerlin, who has
been president and chief stockholder
in the Improvement company since it
was organized to take over the light
ing plant, will go to Minneapolis to
take a position with the Twin City
Insurance Co.
The sale, which has been under
consideration for some time, ends a
long drawn out fight between the
city officials and Mr.. Kerlin in re-
CARDS to the rate and service of the
Improvement company. At a special
election the city decided to install a
municipal plant, but this proposition
was held UP by injunction proceed
ings instituted by Mr.. Kerlin, and
later the city council granted a fran
chise to Mr.. Corson to start a rival
piant.

S. c. ELECTION
CHARGES GROW

Columbia, S. c.. Sept. 6.-The call of
John Gary Evans, chairman of the
state democratic executive committee.
for funds to conduct an investigation
of alleged frauds is bearing fruit. The
call was not made until late yesterday
afternoon, but the fund already is sub
stantial and it is believed it soon will
become large enough to conduct the
entire investigation.
Some of the late information Of
fraud in the election is surprising.
Counties where no rurnors of corrup-
ton has been made now are reporting
specific instances. Darlington and
Greenwood counties are the latest to
unearth scandals.
In Greenwood county, one OF the
boxes had twenty-four more votes in
it than there were names on the reg
istration list, another box had eighteen
and still another had ten more than
lawful.
Similar discoveries are said to have
been made In Darlington county.
