Approximately $3.50 was raised by
the Salvation Army in Grand Forks,
in its special week of self-denial. Adj
iutant Jackson said this morning that
before the first Of next week this um
will have been increased by about
800. which has been pledged in adj
ditional subscriptions yet to be col
lected.
AT the beginning Of the campaign
for funds for home and heather mis-
sions tifty-one targets We're assigned.
The amount of each target depended
upon the ability of the soldier to col
lect. the time that he or she could
devote to the wor and the district
assigned. Some targets were only for
a small amount while others were
placed at $40 or $50.
At the close of the campaign forty
five of the targets We're decorated
with flags Of victory. The soldier was
given a flag each time he hit the
target" Sickness and other work
prevented some of the soldiers from
hitting the marks they We're aiming
at. However, the sum collected was
larger than the band of Christian
workers had dreamed of.
Anton Hanson. a convert of the SAL
yation Army. but lot an enrolled SOL
der, collected the largest sum Of
money in the s~elf-denial period. He
brought in a little over 800. Will
liam Brynjolfson secured about $50.
and Miss Josephine Serum headed the
list Of women workers with SAT.

MAYOR WILL NOT
STOP BOXING
MATCH
- ~. ,
Squared Circle Game to Be
Revived in Grafton
Saturday Night.

Mayor j. E.. Gray of Grafton said
this afternoon that no effort will be
made to stop the six-round boxing en-
hibition In that town Saturday night,
between Bert Wideman, formerly sec
rotary of the Y. NJ. G. A. in Grand
Forks, and Colon Campbell, also of
this city.
Because of the Men and Religion
Forward Movement campaign held in
Grafton this week, persons in Grand
Forks and that town expressed the
opinion that citizens of Grafton might
make an effort to have the boxing con-
test called off by the authorities out
Of respect for the special religious
meetings that have aroused the Chris
ton men of the community within the
past few days. - T..
AS this contest will be merely a box
ing exhibition and in no sense a. prize
fight and for the reason that the Law
does not prohibit a six-round exhibit
ton affair with the gloves, the Grafton
authorities see no reason why the ath-
lctic show should be prevented.
This will be the first boxing contest
Of any importance held in this section
of the state in some time. Wideman,
weighing 100 pounds, will go. up
against a man Weighing. l72 pounds,
and the fans are promised an excellent
card. The coming show is causing a
lot Of interest in Grafton, IL is said.
The contest will be held in Grafton's
fine armory.
Ben Blanchard Of Grand Forks to-
day issued q challenge to the winner
of this fight. to meet him over the six.
round exhibition route.

L want to thank everybody in the
city who assisted us in this self-denial

morning. There seems to have been
a better understanding of the Saliva
ton Army and its work in Grand
Forks this year and nearly every
where we were given a cordial well
come and some assistance.
The army in Grand Forks has
grown SO rapidly this year that about

ANOTHER HOMEMADE auto
George Sours Has Utilized Vacuum
Cleaner Engine as Motive Power
for Strange Vehicle,

The; appearance Of a home made
automobile on the streets of the city q
short time ago, was chronicled in these
columns. but the maker is not alone
in his glory as George Sours has con-
structed an ingenious vehicle which
will make its appearance in a short
time.
He has mounted a gasoline engine
on a specially built base. has utilized
an old pillow seal for a drivers seat
has used a brake wheel from a box
car for a steering wheel. front wheels
OF an old traction engine for rear
wheels and has arranged for driving
the vehicle by the use of a chain and
cog wheels from an old separator.
A vacuum cleaner is mounted on the
front Of the frame and an ingenious
system Of belts and cog wheels has
been arranged. to drive not only the
vehicle. but to run the vaccum clean
Or as we'll. The strange apparatus is
now receiving a coat Of paint in the
'factory-the Ashley garage.

YEARS AHEAD OF Time
Chris G. Rutherford Laid Plans in
Anticipation Of Dcath-Left
Quarter Million.

-Four years of preparation for death
were made by the late Chris c. Ruth
erford. the prominent banker Of Gill
by, this county. who died about ten
days ago, and ms a result of such
preparation. his estate valued al
about a quarter million will not reach
the probate court. Not a single dol
lars worth Of the property will be
adjudicated in that manner as the
late banker had made every plan
complete SO that the affairs will con-
tfnuc just as though he were still liv-
Ing. his directions not covering ques-
ttons which might arise within the
next lew weeks or months alone, but
look far into the future.
An accident four years ago when
Mr.. Rutherford was SO badly burned
by an explosion that he nearly died
was responsible for the preparation
that he had made. At that time the
banker entered orders for the dis
posal of the estate. although the work
was done within a very short time,
and while he was in very critical con.
dition from his injuries.
His subsequent owe did not
alter his plans for the distribution
OF the estate, and lie retained his old
DuIIllS Iuc IOuTsNG6f
period that interviewed from the time
Of the accident and his death, he
maintained a constant watch of his
affairs with reference to the effect
had he not been living. and wherever
he found n flaws in his instructions
made during the time he had expect
ed death. he made changes.
The result Of these four years Of
work is that the estate Of s250,O 900
mas been so perfectly cared for by
him that everything will continue
along the same groove as before his
cemise. Provision has been made
even in cases where parties with
whom he was doing business, who
might, through misfortune, suffer
losses. his instructions covering the
procedure which shall be taken in
connection with his claims against
them. Every little detail seems TO
have been anticipated.
The bulk of the estate was devised
to Mrs. Rutherford. his three chill
dren each receiving about $4,000.
Mrs. Mark Lowell of Beach is a
daughter and Miss Merle. another
daughter. attends school here. Mrs.
Lowell is a graduate of the Grand
Forks high school.

that country ana the monument itself
will he constructed Of white marble.
While the plans in regard to the
magnificent statue are still visionary,
IL Is the plan Of the board to pur.
chase such a monument some time
within the next three years. The ap.
proximate cost Is 100000.
This year the funds Of the cemetery
board will be devoted to grading the
roads and paths. leveling off the Gem.
etery. planting trees and shrubs and
in every way possible identifying the
place.
Following the completion of these
Improvements a fund will be estab.
lished which will be used for the pur.
chase Of the monument. 1t Is expect.
ed that when it is secured, it will be
placed in the center of the cemetery,
in the vicinity Of the plot Of ground
where Father Dillon, who died last
| June, is buried.
An interesting feature of the mon
ument is that it will he exactly thirty
three feet high, each foot of the
height being in commemoration Of a
year Christ spent on earth.

is what is claimed has been done.
The city area before the recent extern

belief of the council. 1905 acres. This

the plaintiffs attorneys claiming that
with the exception of the Great
Northern railroad property. the HaE-
ness addition and the Kelsey first adj
dition, the city area is really less than
1900 acres.
Late this afternoon Manager Louis
Campbell of the Red River Brick
company was put on the stand. His
testimony was largely in regard to
the class of land taken in by the cx-
tension and the use it may he put to.

If the point regarding the alleged
i%rrcEularity of three additions is up

OFFICIALS SAY THAT
ORDINANCE MUST
Be 0BEYED
Street Car Company EN-
ployes Have Received I'm
perative Instructions.

Chief Of Police ]. w. Lowe and
Manager Thomas d. Roycraft Of the
Grand Forks Street Railway company
are trying to instill into the minds of
the conductors and motormen the fact
that the recently passed city ordi-
nance governing the operation Of
street cars. was not drawn up and
passed for the fun of it.
The ordinance demands that mo.
tormen slacken speed when going
over crossings and to sound the gong
when approaching the cross streets.
In another section 1t provides that the
conductors call off the names of the
streets In a distinct and ineligible
manner"
According to the police department
complaints have been registered for
the lack Of observance of both Of
these provisions. Chief Lowe some
time g notified the street car off,
cials that the ordinance must he obey
cd. The order vas given to the rail-
way employees by Manager Roycraft.
The motormcn and conductors
claim that the ordinance is too radi-
cal n that 1t imposes Il hardship
upon them. They have accepted the
dictums OF the officials and will try
to obey the ordinance. but they feel
that they are being imposed upon.
