Arm CRUSHED
UNDER WHEELS

Devils Lake, N. D., May 13.-Painful
injuries which may prove fatal were
suffered by j. II. Wenrebe, better
known as Dutch" a brakeman on the
Great Northern railroad, who fell off
the box cars, the car rolling over his
arm and smashing it to a jelly, neces-
stating am%putation just above the ell
bow. The accident occurred near To-
kio. The injured man vas returned to
Devils Lake and is now in the general
hospital in this city in a very critical
condition.
According to his own account Of the
accident, Wenrebe lost his footing
while crossing from one a to anoth-
er while walking on top of the box
cars and fell between them, but to the
side, but could not draw his arm out
before the wheels a over him. He
also suffered a bruised back, a black
eye, and perhaps, internal injuries.
The physicians in charge believe it
is possible for him to recover from the
frightfuI accident providing infection
does not set in. Wenrebe's home is in
Minnesota, where his father and broth
err now reside and they have been no.

JAMES KELLY IS
now FREE Man

Bismarck, N. D., May 1S.-Thurs-
day, May 9, James Kelly, who
was sentenced almost twenty years
ago for life Imprisonment for MUIR
der in the first degree, walked from
the gates of the state prison a free
man. The state board Of pardons COM
muted his sentence to twenty six
years, and with his good time off his
term expired this week. He was sent
up from Mayville for the alleged muir
der of a policeman. Concerning his
freedom, The Reflector, a magazine
published by the inmates of the prison,
says:
Nineteen years and four months
ago in the city of Mayville, N. D., a
man lost his life and two transients
were arrested, and upon circumstan-
tial evidence they were convicted and
sentenced to life in prison. After
nine years one Of them succeeded
through his slick tongue and petting
ways to h officers in gaining a par
don, but the other, whose name we
do not feel in duty bound to use, had
to stay, but after his stay of nineteen
years he still maintains his innocence,
and on Thursday of this week he
stepped out into the world a free man.
Now the question is: Who is guilty
of the murder in Mayville? Was it
either one of these men, or some one
else? We are not able to say-neither
are you, so let us wish him God-speed
and give him the benefit of the doubt,
and believe him innocent until we are
more competent to prove him guilty.
If he was an innocent man may God
have mercy upon our state law that
will through it's weakness confine a
mar in this hell-hole for nineteen
years, thereby taking away from him
that liberty which God himself gave to
him, But, if he is guilty may God
have mercy on his soul and judge rim
according to his merits.

NEWS OF THE NORTHWEST
BRIGHT FUTURE
FOR 9RlQuETTING.

Minot, N. ID, May 13.-That briquet-
ting is to become the main industry
of Minot and Ward county is the firm
belief Of T.. S. Foot, former Minot man,
who has Just returned to this city aft
or q three years prospecting trip
through British Columbia, Washing
ton, Oregon, Idaho and Montana. Mr..
Foot made most of the trip in a wagon
and stopped at many places to inspect
coal properties. A few days ago ne
took several samples of Ignite from
his mines near Burlington to Grand
Forks, where he had Professor Bah
cock make a complete test. The tests
were finished yesterday and they prov
ed conclusively the wonderful posi-
bilities of the raw material.
Besides making the briquettes, three
useful commodities including gas, tar
and ammonia, were extracted in the
process. The briquettes proved to be
from 81 to 26 per cent more value in
heat than anthracite coal. The gas
was tested and in being compared with
the gas now in use in Grand Forks 1t
was found to be Of better grade. The
TAR extracted during the process is Of a
superior grade and can be used as a
high grade filler or p~reservative for
fenceposts and railroad ties. The am
monia is Of an unusually high test.
In an interview relative to his ex-
periments Mr.. Foot said: The people
of northwest North Dakota don't re-
alize the value Of their resources here.
1t took three years for me to find out
but / am now convinced that nowhere
can better opportunities be found.
Millions Of tons Of the best Ignite coal
lies in the ground and with the perfec-
ton of the briquetting process you can
readily see what it will mean to this
country. There was a time when l
would have taken almost nothing for
my coal lands. l wouldn't take 5000
an acre now. I only wish that more
people could see the wonderful expert
ments being made by Professor Bah
cock"

PAYS WARD
COUNTY $1,000
SETTLEMENT BETWEEN WARD
AND MOUNTAIN couN-
TIES MADE.

Minot. n. D., May 13.-After many
months of litigation and attempts
to settle claims growing out OF the
division of Ward and Mcuntrail coun-
ties, the commissioners of both u
ties meeting in joint session arrived
at a decision.
The gist of the resolution is that
Mountrail county pay Ward county
the sum Of $1,000 in settlement of all
claims. Following the division of the
counties the commissioners being un-
able to agree, the settlement was sub
mitted to the court and final judg-
ment was duly entered in favor of the
county of Ward against the county or
Mountrail to the effect that there was
due to Ward county on July l, 1903,
the sum Of $6,301.95. On July l
there was u and owing to Ward
county for delinquent and county
taxes the sum OF 12,166.96, exclusive
of interest and penalty and of said
sum Mountrail county paid into the
treasury Of Ward county the sum of
S7,771.35 on July /, 1909.
The resolutions signed by the com
missioners of both counties agreed
that Ward county keep the $7,771.35
already paid in and that in addition
to this Mountrail county shall pay
Ward an additional $1,000 which is
to be delivered to the treasurer of
Ward county on June 3, 1912, in full
settlement.
Each county is to pay it's portion
Of state taxes due to special funds
and it is mutually agreed that all
taxes due the state for years prior to
July / from the county of Ward and
levied against the property and per-
son now in Mountrail are assumed to
be paid by Mountrail county. 1t is
further agreed that each county shall
act upon all abatements and refunds
within its borders and be responsible
therefor.
While it has taken a long time to
make a settlement owing to the vast
number of details to be threshed out.
the Ward county commissioners are
to be congratulated upon the stand
they have taken n the interests of
the Ward county taxpayers.
