FLOYD is GUILTY.
Foster County Man Was Convicted at
.Tav,,nst0Vyn


jamestown, N. D., Jan. 4.-The jury
in the case of the state against Bud
Floyd, a case transferred from Foster
county, brought in a verdict Of guilty
Of robbery. AS the trial was nearing
an end. it was discovered that the in
formation was faulty in that it had
not specifically charged the defendant
with committing the crome for which
he was placed ontrial. While the In
formation referred to the crime as rob-
berry, the body of the information
stated, in substance, that the crime
was that of larceny, for which differ
ent penalties are attached. Floyd re-
sides or n homestead in Stutsman
county, and has a family. and was
charged with holding up one Harrison
and taking about s93 in money. 1t is
possible the trial may be set aside on
the grounds of defective information,
or that al appeal may be taken to the
supreme court.

This committee will proceed to get
busy at once and like the other COM
mittee it will more than likely divide
the city into districts and do some
systematic work for new members.
The officers of the club have come
to the absolute conclusion that 1t will
be we'll nigh impossible to continue
much longer in the present quarters
because they are entirely too small
and in addition are exceedingly hard
to get at. An elevator would be a
big help but there does not appear to
be much of a prospect for having one

the rate the membership has been
growing the present hall in case fifty
per cent of the members should attend,
could not begin to accommodate them.

farmers in that vicinity. They state
that u number of wolves have been
found dead on the prairie and others
have been seen acting strangely SINH
lar to the n of mad dogs. The
origin of the epidemic of hydrophobia
dates back to last summer when sew.
eral dogs became afflicted. The dis
ease was conveyed to them to stock in
that vicinity n several head have
died or been killed on account of the
affliction. 1t is thought that the coy
otes became inoculated either through
being bitten by one of the mad dogs
or from eating the cas- Of stock
that had been afflicted with the dis
ease. 1t is feared that the stricken
coyotes will spread the disease still
further, and extra precautions are be-
ing taken by the farmers of hat To-
