were in progress.
There were twenty or more games

several hundred dollars changed pock-

this caused the special agent to bring
a halt on the great pastime. 1t was
an unusually heavy traffic day for the

little trouble in spotting numerous

MINNESOTA BUTTER
LEADS ALL OTHERS.
DEAN WOODS OF AGRICULTURAL
COLLEGE SAYS HIGH GRADE
is DUE TO THE SCHOOLS
EFFORTS.

st. Paul. Sept. 25.-Minnesota stands
far above any other state in the union
in the manufacture of the highest
grade butter. That the state viii con-
tinue to hold the premier position
through the efforts of the dairy school
run in connection with the state farm
school is the contention of Dean
Woods. :
THE dairy school of the MinnesotS
school of agriculture has made Min
nesota the premier butter state, not
only in the United States, but in the
world" said Dean Woods. -
"In eleven. national butter conests in
the United States. held biennially
through the last tewnty-two years,
Minnesota butter has taken first place
for quality, nine times, In n Of the
other two times, when the first award
went to New York state, it was a
Minnesota man, trained in its dairy
school of the university department OF
agriculture, who won; and 1t is known
that the empire state had sought out
this expert butter maker in Minnesota
and induced him to go to New York
for the express purpose or wrestling
from the gopher state her laurels as
the supreme butter state in the world.
Minnesota butter is the standard FOR
the United States, and 1t won the high
est award at the Paris exposition.
THE growth Of the dairy industry
in the state. the impulse given to spe-
cializing in mich COW breeding and to
diversified farming, the increase In
the number of creameries and the COM
mercial success of the butter and
cheese manufactures r cited as
directly traceable to the guidance and
helpful influence Of the dairy school"

there were also mank fine elkts teeth in.
evidence on this occasion. The regalias
We're such as would make men willing
them.
Besides this, there were a large
number Of old-time Indian games,
which were interesting. 1t was quite
a surprise to the large number of white
people who gathered here to see how
little disturbance the Indians made.
There was none of that roughness dis
played, so often at similar gatherings
OF white people. One would have
lstened In vain for a word of profani-
ty. unless uttered by white men.
The industrial building contained a
on the reservation. These included
hne specimens Of corn, much of the
old-ttn1e indian corn, and there were
also the old-time Mandan beans; the
brown and the white beans, and the
Genvente speckled beans. Good
specimens of alfalfa and alfalfa seed.
Also good specimens of sugar beets,
fine potatoes cabbages and other
farm products too numerous to men,
ton: Their was also a creditable ext
hibitton of old-time relics, including
some fine specimens worked by the
women.
Another fine exhibit was the school
display, showing the farm products
raised by the scholars in the gardens,
and also the specimens of industrial
work by the schools. There were also
specimens of drawing, music and sim
liar things.
It was expected that there would be
three speakers on this occasion besides
Rev. DR.. Beede, F.. o. Hellstrom. p. d.
Norton and L. b.. Hanna who were to
have spoken But as 1t happened Faith
er Beede was the only one that came,
and he gave them a speech Wednes-
day, In which they were highly inter-
ested. He told them about history and
the Importance of preserving history
and the practical benefits gained from
history. In fact the Indians liked
Father Beede's speech so well that
they insisted he should speak to them
again the next day, and he thought the
most polite thing to do, was to get
away quickly when bigger men were
going to speak, so he made a hike to
Bismarck, this being the most delicate
way for him out of the awkward sit
uation of competing with men bigger
than himself. And then ais 1t hap
pened these great and wonderful men,
whose heads now lie uneasy, IN their
ardent desire to become the choice Of
the people, and so wear a crown, did
not appear, so after all, If Father
Beede had remained he would have
had ample opportunity to have given
the aborigines another speech on his
tory, without any indelicacy, or lack
of etiquette toward those great men,
who are anxious to become the mould
ers of present history among the white
men.
There were several men there from
the far east, one from New York
studying Indian ethnology.
There Is one man who has been
with the Indians for some length of
time, and knows something of them
intimately; who says he hopes those
eastern students of Indian customs
won't get their ideas concerning the
aborigines as twisted and perverted as
some of the people do who come here
and take a birds Y view. and then
write a book by the aid Of constructive
imagination, which is neither truly

Man ADMITS He
" SHOT YOUNG BRYN

Devils Lake, N. D.. Sept. 25.-Un-
able to retain the terrible secret which
was preytng on his mind, liver P. Lok-
ken, a laborer employed at the farm
Of John Bryn of Grand Harbor town
ship, confessed to the heart-broken
father that the gun with which Anton
j. Bryn was shot on Sept. IA was not
in the lads hands, but that he, (Lok-
ken), was responsible for the death.
That the shooting vas purely acct
dental, Mr., Bryn today declared he
was positive. He reported the affair
to Coroner Gilbertson. AT the time of
the accident Mr.. Gilbertson was in
formed Of the facts by Mt. Bryn as
the latter had found them, there being
no shadow Of suspicion.
During the week, however, Lokken
showed plainly that something was
bothering him. AT. last he broke down.
He first told another hired man who
told Bryn. Later Lokken went over
the details of the accident with the
father. Young Bryn was sitting in q
doorway cleaning his gun. Back of
him was a table on which rested Lok-
ken's gun, In reaching for some shells
the hammer went down and the shot
was fired. Lokken describes the con-
versation with the lad after the shot
was fired:
You shot me, but you didn't mean
to-" the lad said to Lokken.
He then asked me to read the
Lords prayer with him." said Lokken.
I'VE got half way through when he
tainted. / asked him before If /
should get his mother, but he told me
no, that it would only hurt her.
Mr.. Bryn holds no malice towards
Lokken. The latter will remain on
the farm where he has worked since
the middle of August.
