On Friday, Oct 4, Mrs. Lamar
Wood invited fifty or more of Miss
Kate Henderson's friends to a
Miscellaneous Shower" and such it
truly proved to be. After Miss
Bertha Jaeger had entertained with
her beautiful songs, everyone cir
cled about Miss Kate when she was
presented with the heaping trays of
gifts. She was duly surprised and
in her usual apt way had pretty
thanks ready for each package open
ed. After everything was examin-
ed and admired, delightful refresh
ments were served in the dining
room which was lovely with its rich
colored autumn leaves. The guests
left with that satisfactory feeling
that each in its way, the day, the
shower, the bride, and the hostess
was perfect.

JAMESTOWN BOY
WAS FOUND DEAD

jamestown, N D., Sept. 16.--Leav-
ing his home at the eastern edge of
the city limits, apparently in the per-
feet good health Of boyhood, Ray
Kepford, the 15-year-old son of Mr..
and Mrs. C.. b. Kepford of jamestown,
was found dead half hour later,
the body lying about 100 feet from
the house, in front of the barn Death
came, apparently, from a sudden and
entirely unexpected attack of heart
failure, and the boys parents and sis
ters are nearly prostrated with grief.
The boy rose as usual and was
performing his customary Saturday
chores. He seemed as we'll as ever
and had eaten hearty meal. About
8 o'clock he started for the pasture
to harness the driving horse. AS he
did not return when expected, the
family became uneasy and his little
sister Esther went out to find what
was the matter. A few rods distant
from the house she saw the boys
body lying prone upon the ground.
She called the parents and they were
shocked to find that life was extinct.
DR.. Arzt was summoned Immediately
from the city, and though when he
arrived the body was still warm, the
boy had been dead for some time.
There were no signs or marks of vio-
lence and death had evidently come
suddenly from heart failure, although
the cause of the stroke is still
mystery.

STOKLEY TRIAL
FOR MURDER is
TO BEGIN IN OCT.
WOMAN IN CASE NOT REsPoN-

CURING AT LUCKY
STRIKE.

Towner, N D., Sept 16.-The fam
Gus Stokely murder affair which will
be brought for trial in October is cre-
ating considerable interest, since the
Stokley brothers were formerly resi-
dents of this city. Details regarding
the affair. which occurred on Cana
dian homestead at Lucky Strike. have
been anxiously sought the particulars
being rather meager.
Friends of both brothers state that
there was no trouble between the two
brothers because OF Fred Stokley's
divorced wife living with the parents
of the brothers., but that. the whole
affair arose over financial affairs. 1t
seems that the brothers had placed
their money in one common fund with
which to buy stock. and the, first bad
blood between the, boys was caused
over. the settlement. 1t is said that
Fred took several horses. machinery
ETC.. from the home place when the
other sstockleys were away. taking
more than his share. This was passed
up. however. but later on Fred came
back for several cows and took them
to his homestead. Ed went after them
later and put them in the pasture at
home. On the day of the shooting Ed
and Sam Stol<ley were working ut the
barn when they saw Fred in tho pas
ture. supposedly getting ready to drive
some of the cattle out. Fred had rifle
with him. and knowing that he had on
several occasions threatened to shoot
him, Ed went into the house and got
his gun He stood at the gate where
he thought Fred would bring the cat
tie out Hot words were exchanged
and In the quarrel Fred said he would
shoot Ed right now" Ed then raised
his rifle and fired, wounding his broth
er, who fell to his knees. Thinking
Fred was reaching for his automatic
carry, Ed again shot, killing him.
The said affair with its awful end
Ing has cast'a gloom over the friends
of the Stokley brothers, who were
well liked in the vicinity in which they
had homesteads.

buying goods for their places Of busi-
ness.
Rules to Govern.
President Page stated that in some
places there were stringent rules gov
erning such market houses. where
there was an inspector who passed ON
the goods to be sold and where any
were found to be not just right kero-
sene was poured on them and they
were destroyed. He stated that rules
regulating the peddling about the
streets could also be passed that would
prevent such methods Of disposing OF
goods and that anyway a market such
as Fargo should have would do away
with street peddling. He said that the
fact that truck farms would spring
up about the city would mean more
people for the city, and that in the
END the grocery men and other busl-
ness men would reap great benefit.
Committee Appointed
At the end of the discussion PresI-
dent Page appointed committee OF
fVe TO prepare resolution in regard
to the matter and the committee was
composed of Messrs. Cone, Stine Bald
win. Bristol and Rowland This COM
mittee was instructed to prepare a
resolution to the effect that 1t was the
sense of the commercial club that the
city council should take steps at once
if possible for the purchase of a site
down town for market house, and
to urge that the council do all in it's
power to further such a project.
Co. 3. Again.
Secretary Stine read a letter which
was addressed to Capt. Harold Soren-
son of CO.. B of this city which was
written by the adjutant general of the
state, and which stated in no uncertain
manner that Co. b would likely DE
disbanded on account of the very
poor showing that was made bv the
company at the encampment at Devils
Lake the past summer, when only
seven privates showed up and a few
officers. The letter stated that unless
immediate assurance was given the
colonel through the adjutant, who had
been member Of the company for
twenty seven years, that the CONNER
cial club would act, recommendations
would be made to the governor for
disbandment.
. Did Good Service.
President Page stated that it would
be a very hard thing for Fargo to lose
her military company, that IL had done
great service during the big fire or
nearly twenty years ago, that some
thing should be done towards keeping
the company here, and that employ
ers Of soldier boys should be urged TO
permit their boys to have a vacation
during the time they are called TO
camp. Similar remarks were made by
others, at the close of which Secretary
Stine was asked TO write to the adult
ant general 10 the effect that the COM
mercial club is at present working on
a plan by which it is hoped to have a
fine armory here and that the com
pany would be encouraged and aided
TO great extent by the club. Alder
man Mcdonald stated that the city
council would like 10 assist the boys
In financial manner, but could find
no legal may of doing so. Other mar
ters Of minor Importance were taken
