Wolf HOUND At
KENNEL SHOW

Bismarck, N. D., Sept. 23.-R. Win
koff is a hunter, guide, and also acts
for the government in Kidding the
mountains of the western country of
cougars and timber wolves. These
animals are deadly enemies Of deer
and elk. That is the reason the gov
eminent is anxious to rid the ranges
of these animals, and so they hire
men like Winkoff to do the work.
Winkoff calls Grand Pass, Ore. his
headquarters. From there he travels
the mountains of California In pursuit
of the dangerous cougar and the tim
Der wolf. He travels alone as far as
human companions are concerned.
However, he has with him the best of
allies in the form of his great pack of
Russian wolf hounds. These animals
he has obtained direct from Russia.
They cost him an immense sum of
money. He guards them carefully in
their mountain home, and Winkoff
does not offer them for sale, as they
are too hard to replace. They go
with him everywhere. Great, white
gaunt animals. Quiet, but always
ready. Fleet of foot, n fierce fight
ers. They know only their master.
Timber wolves and cougars last but a
short time in an encounter with these
animals. 1t is different when they
NIIASSL up Will the great SIlHAiy DSdTJ
the most dangerous animal on the
American continent. They always
hold the bear until the arrival of Win
koff, who kills it with a rife shot.
But ,Winkoff mourns the loss Of at
least one of his trusty friends. That
is one reason why he never sells or
gives a dog away. Every n Of his
dogs is registered in Russia, in books
which were prepared by a special or
der Of the car. Winkoff is in this
state for a few weeks, m has brought
with him a fine specimen Of his Rus
sian wolf hound. He consented, after
much urging, to show this animal at
the coming dog show. So the people
who attend this show will have the op-
portunity of seeing a member of Win
koff's pack, which has come down out
Of the mountains for a short time.
After it is shown here. it will return
to it's companions and go about it's
grim work in a quiet, deadly manner,
and will probably never, again leave
the mountains, at least not to attend a
dog show.

BOOTH TO WISCONSIN
Star Athlete of Fargo High school
Goes to Take Up Engineering
Course.

George Booth, better known as
Happy" star athlete of the Fargo
high school for the past we years, left
Sunday afternoon for Wisconsin uni
versity. at Madison. He will take up a
Ave ear course in electrical engineer
ing.
Booth not only was one Of the best
all aroun athletes ever turned out at
Fargo high, starring at football, bask-
etball and track work, but he received
the highest average markings of any
graduate from Fargo high school last
year. He was the valedictorian of his
class, a record which went far to re-
flute the popular idea that starring in
athletics means neglect OF studies.
Besides his other duties last year
Booth. found time to represent The
Forum as it's high school correspondent
in a very efficient name
He will undoubtedly be heard from
in athletic circles at the Wisconsin l..
before he finishes his course.

STEELE OUT

5 Choice Of the People in Clean
Campaign

Grand Forks. N. D., Sept. 2S.-Sen.
II. III. Steele of Mohall is a supporter
of L. B.. Hanna for the office of gov
ernor of North Dakota and he says
whenever the. opportunity presents,
that he will put in a good word for the
republican candidate.
MI. Hanna says Senator Steele,
was nominated by the republicans in
q fair and open primary election. 1t
cannot be said that his nomination was
secured by any three or four men, and
1t cannot be successfully argued that
ne owes anything to anybody for his
nomination except the people of the
state. He placed his candidacy before
the people in a campaign that was
clean and free from anything obtec-
tfonable. n won.
That being true, / have no hest
fancy in declaring myself for him for
the executive office. / believe he is
well fitted for the position, and when
considered from the point of view of
O. progressive, / feel that the wisest
course and the best cause of the pro-
gressives will be served by supporting
him..
Mr.. Steele was a member OF the
state senate during several sessions,
and was prominently identified with
the senate organization in the last
session. He has been in the city sew
eral days.

garage and other of the numerous sus-
pected places about. town. In many
instances the witnesses sWore that
they had purchased what they be-
lieved to be beer. It is rumored that
one young man swore that he had not
bought or drunk beer in one place and
that the next witness on h stand
swore he had bought and drunk beer
at that place in company with the first
witness. This will be a case of per-
jury, should the authorities decide to
push the case. Possibly the witness
figures that it is better for him to go
to the pen than to have a pigger sent
to the county jail.
AS a result of Mr.. Costello's visit
the town has been unusually dry the
past few days and there is consider
able uneasiness among the booze
vendors.

one of the most distressing accidents.
that has Eel happened in this vicin-
ity occurred. Towards tea time the
children who had remained at home,

on the kindling wood. and in some
name the clothing of the OUNCE
child, a little boy of about 3 years
of age, became, saturated. After the
fire was lit, and while the other chill
dren were busy about something else,
the little boy pulled a flaming stick
of wood from the stove, and it is sup
posed that his clothing Immediately
took fire. The cook of the thresh-
ing crew, who was in the cook car in
h yard, saw the smoke and ran to
the assistance of the children, but
although it was but a moment. the
names had gotten in their deadly
work.
The child was a grandson of Mr..

NEWS OF THE NORTHWEST
WOMAN FIRED At
WouLD-RE ESCORTS.

Darlington, N. D., Sept. 23.-
With the probable ultimate intent
of robbery, two fresh young fell
lows, unknown here, a~ccosted
Mrs. Hortense Fagen and sister,
Miss Ruby Day, near the Putnam
lumber yards just after the close
of the theatre, the girls being
compelled to fire to shots at the
men before they would a to
annoy them.
Soon after leaving the theatre,
the young men, evidently attract
ed by some diamonds being worn
by Mrs. Fagen, accosted the ladies,
asking to escort them home. The
offer was declined, but the men
persisted. Finally Mrs. F'agen ex-
hibited a revolver and threatened
to shoot. 1t had no effect on the
strangers and the ladies made a
second attempt to get away The
men followed and again threw
themselves in front of the women.
Two shots were then fred and the
men struck a pace that almost
turned the mud into dust.
The two shots attracted some
men from up town who went to
the scene at once. 1t was hard for,
them to believe that the shots had
been fired by the lady, it having
been expected that holdup men
were doing the gun work.
The nerve exhibited by Mrs.
Fagen, who is visiting with her
parents here, Mr.. and Mrs. /. H..
Day, Is generally commended.

GEO. FLAIH WAS
Sent TO ASYLUM

Grand Forks, N. D.. Sept. .23.-Geo.
F1ath was yesterday committed to the
North Dakota asylum for the insane
by the county insanity commission Of
Pembina county, and Sheriff /. j. Fos-
ter was in Grand Forks last night on
his way to Jamestown to place the
former local resident, who has given
officials of several states and Canadian
provinces sc much trouble within the
past few years behind the walls of the
institution.
Flath was arrested at Glasston
Thursday evening. Following his
trouble in this city about a week ago,
when he was arrested for creating a
disturbance on local streets, he re-
turned to Glasston, operating a couple
of threshing machines there. His
condition was called to the attention
Of the authorities and his arrest ami
the filing of the information followed.
During his examination at the
hands of the Pembina commission
yesterday, held III Cavalier before
Judge Wick, the unfortunate man ap-
peared far from rational in his talk,
and his commitment to the asylum
resulted.
Flath has had an interesting exper-
fence with aSylums during the past
few years. When originally arrested
in Grand Forks for insanity, he was
sent into eastern Canada on the re-
quest of relatives, who said they
would care for him. In Canada he
vas sent to an Ontario asylum, and
upon his release he made charges Of
brutality upon the part Of the asylum
authorities. He also started a big
damage suit against them.
Later he had an experience in the
Minnesota asylum at Rochester, and
following his release from that place
he wrote several letters to Governor
Eberhart, claiming that he had been
m~istreated, These letters created
more or less of a stir in Minnesota
circles, as they were given publicity
about the time of the Red Wing in
formatory investigation, and at a
time when the people of the state
were worked up quite thoroughly over
the question Of conduct in such in
situations. However, nothing ever
came of the communications.
At the present time there is pend
ing in the district court of Grand
Forks county, against Flath, a charge
growing out of his violation Of or
ders given by local authorities to
keep off street when engag-
ed in the delivering Of speeches"
The affair resulting in his arrest on
that charge took place about a month
ago.

LEG NEARLY
SEVERED BY
A harvester

Toxic, n. D.. Sept. 23.-One of the

on the e. T.. Nelson farm near Toxic,
as a result of which a laboring maj
named Guy Stevenson who came from
Illinois. is in the general hospital at
Devils Lake with his right leg nearly
cut off and the left badly bruised.
Stevenson was operating one of three
binders being hauled by a gas tractor.
There was a mistake of signals when
the machine Stevenson was on clog.

mar was working in front of the sickle.
Suddenly the machine was started and
his leg was caught in the keen edged
device. The bone was sawed into be-

BIRDS FLOWN WHEN
POLICE ARRIVED

Minot, N. D., Sept. 23.-Upon COM
plant of Martin Rosen, a transient,
who claimed that he had purchased
three bottles of beer at what is known
as the VIM, Kelley place in the old
Tompkin's building on north Main
street, the place was raided late last
night, but when the police arrived on
the scene, the place was empty, eX-
cept for two or three gambling tables
and a lot of sawdust. "
Rosen went to the police and claim
ed that he had been robbed of $25
while sitting in the place drinking
beer. He stated that the fellow sit
ting beside him reached over and
grabbed the money from his vest pOck-
ct and succeeded in getting away be-
fore Rosen, who vas unfamiliar with
the place, could raise the alarm. He
informed the police that he had been
drinking some beer there and offered
to go back and buy some more, which
it appears he did. Probably fearing
that Rosen might be trying to get evil
dence against them the parties whom
it is alleged sold him the beer took off
the tops and he started out of the
place with the beer foaming out of the
bottles.
He was. badly intoxicated and had
some difficulty in finding the police
station again, but when he found the
officers, States Attorney Coyle was
notified and a complaint was secured.
Judge N. Davis was located in one of
the theatres and he signed the war
rant and the police went to work. All
this TRANSFERRED in about fifteen min
utes, but when the police got to the
place everything was quiet and no evil
dence of any DESCRIPTION was in sight.
1t is presumed that When Rosen was
seen leaving the place with three bot
ties and the tops removed, the men in
charge of the alleged pig thought it
would be a good time to get out of the
way and a quick move was made.
