DOESN'T AFFECT N. D.

The recent desicion OF Judge Brad.
shaw OF the equity division of the dis.
trict court Of Des Moines. Ia, tenn
porarily restraining the Modern
Woodmen OF America from putting in
to effect the new rates adopted al
Chicago In January, does not affect
the society or its members in states
other than Iowa.
The Modern Woodmen. at the Chi
cago convention adopted a standard
permanent rate instead of the old
.changeabie on current cost plan. The
standard rate being higher than the
old rate, caused ON opposition ID
spring up.
Those lighting the change are
known as insurgents.
Judge Bradshaw's decision was the
result of a suit fled by members az
the insurgent faction.
The membership of North Dakota. is
made up OF the more enlightened
classes, who realize that the change
was inevitable. and are rapidly chang
ing to the new plan.

REPLEVINEO A HORSE
Alleged to Have Been Illegally Re-
moved by John ZiegIer who is
Held to District Court.

Before Justice 'Torson, today in the
Moorhead police court John Ziegler, a
farm hand who has been working for
John Berquist a farmer of Moorhead
township, was charged with interior
ing with an officer, Deputy Sheriff
MalVey n removing a certain black
horse said to have been replevined by
district court papers issued at the in
stance of Attorney Marden and in ad-
ditiOn ~disposing of the animal to a
horse trader in Fargo. Is.
In his testimony Malvey stated that
he served certain papers upon the de-
PENDANT and took possession of a horse
which he left with John Berquist to be
properly cared for until such time the
possession of the animal was required.
Last Sunday the horse was found to
be missing and after investigation the
deputy secured a warrant for the ar
rest of John Ziegler on the charge of
illegally removing a replevined horse
from the premises of John Berquist and
corroborated by John Beruuist, Thee
dore Schroeder and a nan working for
the latter.
The defendent ~interposing told the
court that he desired to waive eX-
animation as 1T was a proper case for
the district court to dispose Of, and
further he did not car whether bail
was fixed or not" In a rather i'm
pertinent ann the defendant ques-
ioned the witnesses Malvey and Ber-
quist and added that he could do as
he pleased with his own property. Dur.
ing the proceedings the DEFENDANTS
face was wreathed in smiles and he
appeared to be the least concerned of
any one in court. The latter took the
matter under advisement for a. short
time and finally ordered the defendant
held to the district court and permitted
him to go free on his own. re-
c~ognizance. The court took the view
that if anything the defendant in con
tempt in the higher court and 1T was
the latter to settle the difficulty. =

FOR OPENING

The Joint committees of the Moor
head and Fargo Commercial clubs, and
one from Dilworth met at the Com
! stock hotel today to arrange for the
| formal opening of the Dilworth inter-
urban line which is to connect with
the twin city loops. The matters were
discussed during the luncheon hour.
The committee first found that 1T
was impossible to fix a date for the
event, but it will be announced in a
very few days. On the date to be
named a special train over the new
line will leave Fargo at 2 p. M, tick
cts for which will be sold at 81 OUT
of which. 20 cents will go to the street
railway company and the balance will
be applied to incidental expenses. One
train will be the band of C%oncordia
college, twenty-five pieces. If the
weather is Indictment the excursionists
will be cared for at Dilworth by Su-
perintendent Nichols where he will
posal of the visitors. The opening
ceremony will include three speeches,
one by a representative of the Fargo
commercial club, one from the Moor
of Dilworth. There will be no formal
function in the way of a dinner or
luncheon.
In the evening of the same date Dill
worth desires to return the call mad
earlier in the day and for this courtesy
there will be an open-house session
in the rooms of the Fargo Commercial
club where citizens will have the OPP
portunity of meeting all interested in
the new railway venture and the for
NAL placing if it in service-for the

tie or no rallying power, that short
sellers are becoming much more con-
fident and, in a way, aggressive. While
we see no actual change as far as the
supply and demand situation is con

Of the market as the neWs from the

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES the weakness
in wheat during part of the session,
corn maintained a steady to strong
undertone and closing prices showed
an advance as compared with yester-
day. With the apparent tendency of
prices to at least, steady we are in
clined to believe that some betterment
in the cash inquiry will tax place.
Warehouse receipts for $4,000 bushels
of contract corn in store were cancell-
ed today, this being about M half of
the total shown on Monday last.

New York, Nov. 20.-Throughout
Robert Hichen's drama, Bella Don
ma" now playing at a Broadway thea
tire, Mime. Nazimova suggests, by the
clinging gowns that fairly seem to
writhe when wrapped about her sin
uous form, the very personification of
the serpent. The gowns are created to
portray the temperament of the char
acter played, and are not importations
from Paris, but made here in New
York.
The grown picture is of cloth of
gold, interviewer with oak caves over
an underbody of the highest blush
green cut high in the black, cling
ing form, and long serpentine sleeves.
An Egyptian bolt of sapphires and
rubies is clasped about her waist.
When the light falls on the steel blue
jet bandeau which encircles her fore
head and keeps in place her black
aigret, all the diamonds of all
the diamond mines of the world are
out-dazzled. Over her gown a shawl
of the texture Of the spiders web,
which it represents, is maed of the
color of steel when the pale light of
the moon falls on it.

FOUGHT over
R. R. TRACK
Train Was Wrecked BY Rebels
ia Mckee

Mexico city, Nov. 20.-A fight yes
terday between ruraleguards andrea
els for the control Of a railroad track,
cost the lives Of a lieutenant, three
rurale guards and two civilian pass
engers in the vicinity of Penja1no,
state of Guanajato.
The train, travelling along the Quad
alajara branch OF the Mclean Cen
trail railroad, ran into a bridge from
which the rails had been removed and
the engine and two cars fell through.
A large force of rebels ran conf
IDENTIFY down the hillsides toward the
wreck, not knowing of the presence of
twenty-four rurale guards in one of
the cars on their way to he capital
from ManzanilIo. The guards took up
a position and held the rebels off. The
fight around the wrecked train lasted
an hour, when the rebels retreated to
the hills.
The presence of the rurale guards
no doubt prevented the robbery of the
train and possibly the slaughter of the
passengers. 4
Eight small encounters in various
parts Of the republic were reported to-
day, the rebels showing Increased &C
ttvity in northern Durango, while the
Zeapatistas movement in south con-
