He was taken to st. Michael's hospi-

His condition is regarded as ex-

Stories of the incident leading up to
the fight between the two men vary.
According to the version told by
Joseph Goodrie. father of the accused
boy. there was no preliminary squab-
BILE between the men in East Grand
Forks as has been intimated.
Frank, he says, came home Friday
night about midnight and told him
about having a fight with Getz. The
boy explained that he was walking
ahead Of Getz when the latter grabbed
the weapon-a 20 rife-from his
hand. declaring that she had no BUSH

The father is seemingly deeply

not been of a quarrelsome disposition.
but that he has, instead, been very
steady.
Did Not Hide.
The father claims that his son did
not hide Saturday. Friday night
when he came home, the father says,
he told the hoy to go down town again
and find Getz. He returned later with
the information that Getz had gone
home.
1t was about 10 o'clock Saturday
morning. he says. before they had any
knowledge Of a warrant. and as soon
as they found Frank and told him
about the warrant. he said he would
give himself up. He suited the words
by doing SO Saturday afternoon.

SEEDING gaining
IN GOOD WEATHER
Operations Now General
Nearly One-third of Wheat
sown Here Already.


The splendid weather Of the past
Of by farmers all over the state. Winds
have been drying the fields remark
ably fast. The southern tier of coun-
ties report about half of the crop in
the ground. In Grand Forks county
nearly one-third of the wheat acreage
has been taken care of. Continued
dry weather this week will see most
of the wheat crop sown, and a great
deal of the other grains put in the
ground in two weeks.
The wheat acreage is being reduced
this year in Grand Forks county, ac-
ers. The reason for this lies in the
fact that a great many farmers are
doubling the corn acreage of last year.
Other farmers are putting a greater
number of acres into timothy n 9TH
er grass seeds than in years before.
This means that conservation of the
soil will be practiced more than ever
before.
The better farming association and
all the other better farming combil.a-
tions in the state. are working harder
than ever before to get the farmers to
forget the idea of sowing all their
land to wheat or fax. Especially will
these organizations endeavor to Ell
courage the raising Of stock on a larg-
er scale than ever before. The de-
crease in the shipments of western
cattle has been remarkable in the past
three or four years and it is being
freely predicted that the shipments OF
cattle from the valley will in a very
short time equal in value the western
cattle shipments.

INVENTION OF MACHINE GUN
MltralIIouse, Idea Of Belgian and Pat
entsd Forty-Three Years Ago,
Superseded by Gatllnq.

The first rapid-fire gun, the nit
raillouse, was the invention of a
Belgian, and was patented in France
90 years ago. Ten years later Richard
Jordan Gatling, an American inventor.
produced the first crude Calling gun.
which, in many subsequent improve
ments. has been adopted by all the
armies of the world. and has long
since superseded the mitraillouse.
The latter was still in use, however.
at the time of the Franco Prussian war.
and its dry. shrieking, terrible sound"
was described by many writer's as
adding a new horror and destructive
ness to war. The first machine gun
consisted OF 81 barrels secured in
frame around an axis. The whole OF
the charges were fired at once, SO
that at short range the bullets all
went in nearly the same spot. The
number Of rounds could not be regu-
lated at pleasure, and only one volley
could be fired. These and other de-
fects were corrected in the Gatling
gun. one Of the most destructive In
struments Of modern warfare.
