The Bull Mooses Of Florida, who are

DOG INVOLVED
IN LITIGATION
DECISION IN ONE CASE DOES NOT
SETTLE ALL MATTERS CON-
CERNING ANIMAL.

Valley City, N. D., Sept. 6.-While
he question of the larceny of a dog
was settled by Justice label yester-
day afternoon, the ownership of the
animal is still in doubt and further
litigation may be necessary to settle
the matter.
Last February Charles Brown went
to Canada, leaving behind a bulldog
and a Llewellyn setter. The setter
was left with Mrs. Bertha Davis,
Brown telling her she could have the
dog or give it away Mrs. Davis gave
the dog to Elgie Carman, who took
good care of the animal all summer
and paid the license. d
Along in August Waldemar Johnson
who had worked for Brown here and
in Canada, returned to Valley City.
He knew the dog and the dog knew
him. On Aug. "a, Johnson is alleged
to have taken absolute possession of
the dog and shipped it out of town,
ostensibly in view of the hunting sea-
son. Carmen demanded the dog. He
was refused and then he asked for a
settlement for feeding the dog and
paying the license. Johnson told Car
men he had smoke in his eyes"
To bring the matter at issue before
the courts Carmen yesterday swore to
a complaint, charging Johnson with
larceny. When the case was called be-
fore Justice Moe, Johnson asked for
a change of venue to Justice label.
After hearing the testimony Justice
label decided that Johnosn was not
guilty as charged.
This does not settle the question of
ownership of the dog.

slug and ROB
At grand forks

Grand Forks, N. D., Sept. 6.-Dealt
a fearful blow On the left ear by one
man, while a second combatant slitted
the front Of his shirt and scratched
his breast with the point of a knife
he welded, Bert Williams, a cook
at the Hough dairy lunch, was sen
into insensibility, the thugs making
away with his cash, about $40, before
he recovered consciousness.
Williams was standing in the alley
just back of the Widlund building.
between DeMers and Kittson avenue,
and Third and Fourth streets, when
he was accosted by the strangers, who
asked him for something to eat.
Williams referred them to the night
cook.
At that moment he was given a
singing blow on the head, and as he
reeled over, the second of the pair of
thugs flashed a knife, Sitting Will
Jams shirt about ten inches across the
chest, but falling just short of slash
ing him, merely scratching the skin
slightly.
When Williams recovered the men
were gone. His calls for help brought
several to the scene, but the thugs had
already gotten away, The cook found
his money and his jackknife had been
taken while he dosed.
A colored man was arrested
suspected of being implicated n
the holdup. He was trailed by
the alley on DeMers e to a res
taurant near the Great Northern de-
pot. The negro, the trailer declared.
was carrying a knife or razor in his
hand. A knife was found in the fell
lows clothes.

STANLEY HAS
A GREAT TEAM

Stanley, N. D, Sept. 6.-The Stanley
fast baseball club played it's first games
in the state after It's return from the
west last Sunday at Plaza, N. D., in a
double-header against the Douglas club
had not been defeated this season and
the interest in the result of the games
was intense. The Stanley team, how-
ever, completely ~outclassed the Doug
las boys by taking both games, the
first game by a score Of 10 to y, with
Gilchrist pitching and allowing only
three hits and one walk. Only foul
Douglas men reached first base, Stan
ley playing an errorless game. Third
Baseman Beal, for Stanley, was the
fielding n hitting star The fielding
of the Stanley team was most ex-
cellent. Stanley won the second game
by a score of IL to 4, with Brown pitch
ing for Stanley. Showers pitched the
first game for Douglas and was hit
hard. C~hristianson n Kline pitched
the secon game for Douglas. In the
second game Griffin, in center field for
Stanley, was the star and pulled down
a couple of line drives in a sensation
al manner. Manager Corrigan's work
in running the Stanley team was ex-
cellent.

WILL PRESERVE
INDIAN songs
NATIONAL EXPERT HAS REG
oRDS OF SONGS FROM RER-

. TION,

Bismarck. N. D., Sept. 6.-During
the past month the State Historical
society has been undertaking a new
phase of it's work by preserving the
: songs of the North Dakota Indians.
The photograph is used to record
these songs. These phonograms will
be a valuable and intensely interest
! ing addition to the State Historical
library.
The present study of the old songs
( is made on the Fort Berthold reser-
walton. Miss Francis Densmore, who
is recording, classifying and tran
scribing these songs, is in the employ
of the United States chronological bu-
sreau and the society is very fortunate
to get her service for six weeks. She
is specializing in the Mandan songs
but has a number of Goventre and
Rec songs. In the Mandan songs she
has the songs of social and religious
societies. lullaby songs, songs Of war
and songs sung when about the daily
stoil.
These phonograms are being tran
scribed into notes on a musical staff
so that any musician may play them
exact Interpretation are placed be-
meath the notes.
There are very few Of the Mandans
left, and these old people will not last

liable for future reference. Besides
the songs, the society is very fortu-
nate to have the hearty co-opera-
ton of Mrs. Holding Eagle to preserve
the words in their ancient purity. Two
hundred typical words used in all
phases Of the Mandan life were Sc
lected and the English words were
spoken into the photograph by Mr..
Fish and the ancient Manday by Mrs.
Holding Eagle. Mrs. Holding Eagle
was very careful to get the exact
pronunciation of each word and each
syllable. She also told a short story
of five records. so that we may know
the sentence structure Of the Ian
guags,
When time and money permits. it
is the purpose of the society to ex-
tend this collection of ~phonograms to
include records of speeches made by
men who are prominent in the state
and all valuable records cast in in
He%structible form. so that future gen.
%erations may hear exact reproduce
tions of their voices.
The State Historical society Is to
be congratulated Upon this phase of
work done by an expert Of national
reputation,

SAY FATHER
/ DESERTED GIRLS

MinOt optic: Is there anyone in
Minot who would like to care for two
brighteyed little girls, aged 81 and
AZ years?
There are two little tots in the city
of Minot that have been deserted, so
1t is alleged, by their father, Bob Muir
ray. A warrant has been issued for
Murray's arrest on the charge of de-
serting his children, an act which und-
pr the North Dakota law is a felony.
Mrs. Murray, the mother of the
girls, is unable to secure work, ac-
eompanied by her children, so it may
be necessary for her to place the little
tots in Minot homes. There is moth
ing in the world a mother hates to do
more than to give up her babies, but
sometimes circumstances require this.
Mrs. Murray can easily secure work at
q good wage. should the authorities be
able to secure accommodations for the
little tots.
The girls are as pretty as pictures.
They are kept very pretty and neat by
their mother, who seems to lavish on
them the affection that their father
denies. Sheriff Kelley this morning
took the matter up with Captain Scar
lett of the humane society, and 1t is
probable that some arrangements will
be made whereby the baby girls will be
given the best of care.

AUTO and BICYCLE
MEET IN COLLISION

Valley City, N. D.. Sept. 6.-An auto
mobile driven by F. A. Barchus, and
a bicycle ridden by Frank Tracy, son
of John Tracy, cashier of the First
National bank, with Waldo Simonson,
son of O. Simonson, sitting on the
handIebars, collided at Fifth avenue
and Front street, and both boys were
badly scratched and bruised but not
seriously injured.
The Simonson boy was hurled from
the handlebars to the curbing of the
street, and young Tracy fell under the
automobile, the car passing over him,
but he escaped the wheels. His es-
cape from serious injury is remark
able.
