WEBER BREAKS
PLEDGE TO QUIT
DRINKS; JAILED

James Weber, erstwhile janitor in a
local church, who created consider
able excitement several weeks ago by
shooting in the wee sma' hours. was
given thirty days in court this norm
ing. Weber at the time of the creation
of the disturbance took a pledge be
fore the local police to abstain from
drinking.
But the Fourth of July proved too
much for his patriotic blood. Yester-
day Weber proceeded to get on a
glorious jag and kicked up a few little
disturbances in his wild glee while un-
der the influence. AS a result of his
kiddishness and also because of his
broken promise to abstain and behave
himself. Weber was given a Jail sen-
tence in order that he will not be
tempted for a time at least.
Taken all in all. the day was I'M
usually quiet in police circles for the
Fourth. Only two other DRINKS were
up and they paid fines.

FIVE INJURED ON THE
GLORIOUS FOURTH
Of JULY
Three Women Hurt. When
Buggy Tips Over; Chill
dren Burned

Fourth Of July accidents in Grand
Forks number three SO far as can be
learned. Two are attributable to the
oid-fashioned way Of celebrating In
dependence day. The other might
have happened on any safe and sane
day.
Little Margaret Wilder. 4 years old,
daughter of MI. and Mrs. p. II. Will
der, 311 Dacotah avenu was slightly
burned about 9 o'clock yesterday
morning. The child was playing with
some young companions near her
home when her clothing caught on
fire from some firecrackers which the
children were shooting in the street.
The little girl might have been seri-
ously burned had not a man, who did
not give his name happened by in a
buggy just in time to see the child's
danger and eXtinguish the flames with
his hands. The stranger then placed
the little girl in her mothers arms
and drove away. The child's hair was
singed and her dress destroyed.
A small boy named Meyer and liv-
ing on Chestnut street will probably
e carry matches in his hip pocket
again. He had some in this particu-
ar pocket yesterday morning. When
a chum started to make a noise with
a bunch Of firecrackers the matches
famed up and the youngster was
slightly burned on the place where he
sits down and his mother spanks,
Aside from being forced to stand up
most of he time, this boy is all right.
He told the doctor that was called that
he didn't care for the burns or the
pants, but hated to miss the fun that
other boys of the neighborhood were
having.

buggy in which they were enjoying q

occurred. at the corner of Fourth
street and Hill avenue. The horse
was frightened when the thills drop

threw the rig on its side. The occu-

street.
Mrs. Collins is suffering with a
sprained ankle today. Mrs. Schweit-

Again the Tigers put up the same

usual result yesterday. But 1T
was not until the last inning that
the Beavers jumped on the weak
euing Crdger land pushed over

Criger pitched good ball up to
the last of the ninth, while
George Engle was rather uncer-
tain throughout the game. In
the fourth George became loose
with his spitball, and the Tigers
unexpectedly threatened to start
something. Then Veteran Engel
tightened, and the Beavers are
still in sight of the pennant. Just
