Great excitement was caused here
last Tuesday morning when the news
reached US here of the mysterious dis
appearance of the MAZDA post master.
1t appears that he left home on Monday
with a load of grain for this point and
not returning home as usual, his wife
became quite anxious and thought some
accident must have befallen him, so
early the next morning a search party
was called, some on horseback and
some in autos and still they failed to
lind any trace of the missing man. The
phone was kept busy for four or five
hours, enquiries being made from nearly
every part of the state, when finally they
received the news that he was safe and
had been visiting some friends on the
Canadian side of the line.

SUDDEN DEATH
Of DAN=Me6RUtR:
Prominent End-Town Business Man
Found Dead in Bed Sunday
Forenoon.

Early Sunday forenoon the sad intel
ligence reached Langdon of the ex-
tremely sudden and unexpected death
at his home in Hannah of Druggist Dan
McGruer, one of the pioneer residents
of this county for upwards a quarter of
a century. Deceased. who was aged
tifty.six years was found lying dead in
his bed by his wife Sunday forenoon
when at half past ten o'clock she went
to his room to awaken him and tell him
that he was over sleeping. Death is
supposed to have been due to heart
failure, as Mr.. McGruer was apparent
ly quite we'll when he retired at the usual
hour Saturday night. AS stated Sun
day forenoon, deciding it was time for
for him to get up Mrs. McGruer went to
the bedroom to call him. Receiving no
answer when she knocked on the door
she entered the room. He was laying
in a perfectly natural position, but upon
coming close TO the bed the wife became
aware of the fact that her husband lay
there cold in death. Medical assistance
was, summoned at once when it was
found he had been dead for several
hours. Mr.. McGruer left Langdon for
Hannah when that town started. about
twenty years ago where he. has been in
business continuously since that time
He is survived by his widow and four
daughters, Mrs. Smith, Miss Maud, Miss
Ethel and Miss May. Deceased is also
survived by a brother and sister, the
latter residing in California.
The funeral was held yesterday after
day afternoon at half-past two o'clock,
the services at the Presbyterian church
in Hannah, interment following with
Masonic honors at the grave.

Professor Koch of the University gave
a dramatic recital of Dickens "a Christ

ton last Friday evening. This number

eight years at the university and there

Che number was the best yet given as

coded that Professor Koch's reading of
Dickens wonderful "Ghost Story
brought Christmas nearer to us in these
days of a scarcity of snow, and also the
cheering idea that it is more blessed to
give than to receive. While here Pro
lessor Koch was entertained at the

DAMAGES AWARDED
IN CIVIL ACTIONS
Verdict for $1,683 in Breach Of
Promise Case-Photographer
Best Awarded One Dollar.

Yesterday afternoon the jury after
nearly eight hours %deliberation in the
breach of promise case i'm which Miss
Josie Erickson, of Ambrose, N. D., was
plaintiff and j. S. Goehring, of Sarles,
was defendant brought in a verdict
finding 1888 as adequate compensation
tor the nonfulfllment by Goehring of
of his promise to marry her after an
engagement covering a period of some
six years. Plaintiff had brought suit
for $4,000 and was represented in court
by Attorney Green Of Minot. The de-.
tendant' had retained Attorney G. M.
Price of this city as his counsel. A
crowded court room during the progress
OF the case showed that the public was
aware that this was one of the big
things" of this term of court.
The case of Ferdinand w. Best VS..
Emil Schadwinkel took up a day and a
half's time in district court Friday and
Saturday last week. Best brought civil
action against Schadwinkel, claiming
damages aggregating $500 in a fall,
which plaintiff alleged defendant was
responsible for while engaged in a dis.
cussion on the sidewalk in Langdon a
few weeks ago. Defendant denied hav-
ing anything to do with the fall of Best,
who is a cripple. The jury evidently
viewed the case in about the same way
as their verdict only awarded Best
damages in the sum of one dollar.
