-. TRADE REVIEW
Cumulative Improvement in
Weeks Trading Was the
Chief Characteristic

New York, Feb. 17.-Bradstreets
today says: Cumulative improvement
is the chief characteristic Of this
weeks trade reports. Demand is ex-
panding and betterment is extending
to those centers that have heretofore
been particularly quiet. AS yet the
pace Is only steady, but it seems to
be consistent and conservative optim-
ism is developing at a greater rate.
Mail order concerns have done very
well. thanks to the tendency to buy
in small lots, and trade in dry goods.
wearing apparel, shoes, groceries and
other essentials reflects to influences
of slow but steady improvement. Cot
ton goods continue to gain in strength
as regards prices. one line after an
other being lacked up as order books
present better aspects.
Even the south has responded to the
improved undertone Of things, discon-
tent is disappearing especially from
the larger cities, though some of the
smaller centers' are still suffering from
a paucity OF business. In the iron and
steel lines operations are increasing,
but new business has tapered off
somewhat. while specifications on
some goods have also receded a little.
At the same time there is consider
able rail buying in sight, while the
prospects for early heavy buying of
cars seem good. the suggestion being
made in this connection that the wear
and tear on cars has been such as to
render the buying of new rolling
stock a necessity.
However, prices on structural
shapes, plates. bars, sheets and some
other finished lines are lower, compe-
tition from mills that are not we'll sup
piled with orders being quite note
worthy. .

MODERN CLANS
To HAVE IDENTITY
Believes Man Who Killed
Sheriff Was One of the
N. P. Train Robbers

Wahpeton, y. H.. Feb. 17.-ln the
following letter written from Bis
marcli, ID. Il. Mord"n claims to have
secured evidence which leads him to
lrcliev hat the ma who killed Sher-
iff Moody was one of the Northern Pa
citic train robbers. His letter follows:
Again referring 10 Shriff Moody's
mysterious slayer Will say that | have
found without a doubt that he was
one of the train robbers who held up
the \. =. train No. - near Valley City
in July last. At nMourc IL reputable
business man told me that this man
was one of the three men who held up
said train. ! asked him ii this WAS Il
fish story, he replied no. | have 1t
straight. and when he found that his
one pal was convicted II taken to
the prison at Bismarck and the othr
pals wife had given HIM away tn Chief
Mcdonald of bismarck who had ar
rested him, our desperate thought it
a put up job between the other man
and his wife 81 thu other man could
turn states evidence against him and
his freedom, So RESOLVED to make a
hasty retreat. At Sanhorn 7 showed
me of his photos to y merchant, one
of his staff remarked, that does look
like one ut thu train robbers" | ask
% how he knew. He replied, We sold
them the caps they wore at the hold
up and which they left on the gound
at tho scene of the holdnp. pur-
chased one of the caps and showed it
to Young, the convicted man. | ask
ed if he had eyer seen a cap like that,
he replied, ycs had ono like that. |
asked where ii was. he replied | lost
it off the \. I. train near Valley City.
then asked him ii he could recognize
the picture of this man, he replied yes,
that is George Gairo, he works for a
farmer near Fordville. on the 500 west
of Conway.
AT steele a man recognized him as
n man he had frequently met in a
certain saloon and pool room at Abcr-
deem and gave IN" the of a check
book this man had given him which
would indicate that he had done bust
ness with the Farmers Saving ank at
ottucScn. Iowa.
AT Bismarck II gentleman rccog-
niz~d him AS Thos. Brown of Rock
ford. ILL.,, where he worked for Il knit
ting company but would take frequent
trips for ii month or two and return
with lots of money. lie appears to
have been continually jumping from
one section OF the cnuntry to another,
changing his name at each place.
"A former guard at the stat prison
at Bismarck recognized him as Il for
mer inmate of the prison during War
den Boucher's administration. A
clergyman at Bismarck also recognize
ed him as a former inmate OF the pri-
son whom he visited at the prison. l
am convinced that his home state is
Iowa. WAS informed ut Aberdeen
that the train holdup ut Valley City
was planned at Aberdeen. so it is my
opinion that this man was in hiding
at the house where he WAS found and
thought Sheriff Moody wanted him
for the train holdup is the reason he
committed the terrible decd rather
than face a long term in states prison.

ord when J. reach Iowa in two months.

Notes from kelinerSyille.

BE sure and do not miss the big ball
game, the O. KS. at Kelnersyille on
the 4th of July. Dance and picnic at
G. Cherney's hall after the game.
Mr.. Cheney has enlarged his hall and
it is now one of the finest up-to-date
halls in the county. Urban's harp
orchestra will furnish the music. An
auto truck will be run between Mari
bel and Kellnersville during the day
and evening.
Kellnersville and Denmark game
ended in row in the 10th inning
when the Denmark team had II runs
and Kellnersville 10 runs, but with a
man on lst and 3rd and only one out
and the heavy batters up. Mr.. Under
wood one piece Of an umpire calls
Sawyer out on the 3rd where he was
perfectly safe and furthermore Mr..
Randolph the Bird baseman for Den
mark admits that he did not tag Saw
yer out; but no, the Denmark imp.
would not give in and the players
would not play unless the fragrant de-
cision would be corrected. Denmark
had two state league players in their
line up and the game was heavy
hitting contest at all times.

VACATIONS.

Vacations should be spent in such a
way as to secure the greatest change
possible. One whose work is combining
and who is kept from intercourse with
others, may go to the resorts where
the crowds are to be found, and receive
benefit from mingling with the people
there, even spending a week or q
month in large city; splendid place
for the farmer and his wife to go for
the needed change in life that is
likely to be only too monotonous.
Oftimes the teacher, especially of
schools in smaller cities and towns,
will find New York City an ideal place
for vacation.
But the man or woman whose life is
in the busy whirl of trade and COM
merce, dealing more or less with
persons rather than things, should seek
the quiet places for the change needed.
This is afforded most admirably in the
vicinity of lake, or wooded stream
with the shade of majestic trees.
There is a soothing influence from the
water which many fail to get from the
mountains. The listless quiet from a
sill on the still waters of lake or the
slowly padding OF a light canoe along
the shady bank may do much to put
the nerves in order.-Ex.

HOME CIRCLE COLUMN.
WORDS TO THINK OF.

Work is no dishonor and laziness is
no credit to anyone. 1t is good and
proper to have good wages; but half
pay is much better than laziness and
vice. Satan always finds employment
Tor the idle and vicious. Idleness is
the begetter of crime. 1t is degrading
and demoralizing in its tendencies and
criminal in it's results. The idle are
always easily tempted, and their very
dependence makes them ready and
willing victims to temptations. There
is no true manhood without indepen-
ence. Fashion is great and frivolous
folly. He whose Individuality is swal-
lowed up in fashion, folly or society,
has lost that which he may never see
again, and without which his life must
be a vain and aimless one. He who
Restraints himself from luxuries may
help others in necessities. He who
helps others may look to Providence
to help him in his hour of need. Diff
ficulties are placed in our way that we
may overcome them and PASS through
conflict to victory and through victory
to triumphs. Pride goes before de-
struction, but honor and nobleness and
independence of soul are approved by
our Maker and are profitable to man
kind.
