YEGGNEN AT
ELDRIDGE, N. D.

Eldridge, N. D., Sept. 1O.-Yeggmen
blew the safe in the store and postof-
flee at Eldridge, but they did not get
any money. Postmaster Isaac O'Dell
avs he does not believe the men got a
dollar in cash, though they probably
supplied themselves to some extent
from the merchandise.
Mr.. O'Dell says he retired about 10
o'clock and believes that the safeamust
have been tapped sometime soon after
midnight, though he says he did not
hear anything during the entire night
to rouse him.
When he entered the store in the
morning he found the tumbler and
combination of the safe blown off and
the safe open.
Nc suspicious characters have been
noticed about Eldridge, in the gener-
al influx of harvest hands, and he is
at an entire loss as regards a clue to
the yeggmen, who seemed to have been
expert at the business.
A p~ostoffice inspector was on the
ground early today but was unable to
gain much evidence except the fact
that three men from Eldridge came to
jamestown at an early hour Monday
morning and are believed to have beat
en- their way out of the city on the
Northern branch train. Although he
was given a good description of the
men they have not yet ben located.

This will be done by sinking barges

plat, and should not be considered as
anything like an average.
Very important Matter.
THE question of the selection Of
seed corn is a very important n to
the people of the state and should DE
attended to just as 500 as possible. [
am Of the opinion that the seed for
next year should not cost much out
side the state, for l am convinced that
there is plenty of good seeding corn
right in the state if it was attended to.
and 1t won't take very long until this
will be most valuable. The state
should not find it necessary to buy Il
single grain of corn for seeding pur-
poses il the work was properly looked
after. and l am more than glad to be
able to say that very many people all
over the state are attending to this.
Putting Up Seed.
81 am informed that farmers and
firms in the state in various parts are
putting up from 500 to 1000 bushels Of
seeding corn n l think they will find
that it will pay and pay big. The past
season has demonstrated one thing,
that corn that is planted early enough
even with such an undesirable season
as the past has been will mature and
produce good seed. The warm sun Of
the past few days, not counting today.
of course has ripened the corr to a
great extent, and has made it possible
for the seed to be selected in some
cases. while in others this work is 60
ing on.
Regarding T%hreshine.
"Threshing is going on in all dis
tricts represented by the Better Farm
ing association and from one-fouTth
to one-third has been done. In the
southwestern part Of the state thresh-
ing has just commenced, and the same
might be said of the northwestern
part. The yields are all that was ex-
pected Of them, and te state, to my
! mind, has been greatly benefited by
providence and the hard work of the
farmers themselves as we'll as by the
efforts our association has put forth.
The yields have been very generally
satisfactory and there Is a feeling of
pleasure among the farmers all oVer
the state.
AS to Potatoes.
"The exceedingly wet weather has
caused the potato crop to take a big
slump this season from what was eX-
pected. Then, too, the potato diseases
struck the crops and these were great

will be good results in different parts,
and the fact that the crop is short will

THE B0LDEST
 HOLDUP YET

The whole country has been shocked so often that it is becom- ing used to the stories of holdups by bold. bad men. but when children, not yet out of teens, and some of them barely in them, resort to hold ing up trains. it is time for every one to cry. What is this wicked world coming to- Yet the 1:4O Panama Valley railroad auto for the loop was heldup in broad daylight at Bakers grove. on 14 below Gold stream, on Saturday. The passen. gers were forced to dismount. the driver was made to leave his seat. and the entire crowd was forced to march to the camp of the bold ban dits and there partake of the hospi
 tality of the wicked crew of robbers
 And all this happened while twenty grown-ups looked on and said nary a word, nor raised a hand In de
 fence of the poor passengers The names of the leaders of this bold deed could not be ascertained by the authorities. and their confeder- ates are likewise unknown. There were twenty of them in the gang. and of course the passengers were easily overcome by such large force. It is hoped that this sort of recklessness will cease, as some bold bad men may be tempted to steal the railroad auto, and then the railroad would go broke and
