APoLIs SPORT WRITER FOR THE
THIRD MAN or The MAT-THE
BIG CONTEST MARCH "a.

There is but little likelihood OF
Frank Force, the Minneapolis sport
writer, coming to Fargo next Thurs
day night to referee the contest be-
tween Henry Ordeman of the twin
cities and Chris Person of this city.
Chris would be more than foolish If
he would stand for Force as the third
man on the mat. The reason for this
lies in the fact that Force lis said to be
a manager of Ordeman and a very
warm friend of the great mill city
wrestler. He would no doubt be all
right in the official position as a Judge,
but Chris wants some on the maj

FEARFUL CASE
OF DEPRAVITY

Bowman County Pioneer: Upon the
solicitation OF the, proper officials. Will
liam Blake, the juvenile officer, was
brought here the first of the week from
jamestown, N. D., for the purpose of
looking into the case of Mrs. Minnie
Mangan, N family, residing about
nine miles southwest of Rhame. This
family was composed Of the woman
and nine children, the oldest daughter
being II years old, the next being 16
years old, and so on down the line.
Dances a been held at the house
and beer was sold. The place was Wis
tied by men, some of whom were
.uncles Of the girls, and a ~disgraceful
state of affairs existed, the details of
which are unfit for publication. The
woman had been warned Of the COM
ing Of the juvenile officer with Sheriff
Barrett and went to Rhame Monday
with of the girls, intending to leave
the: country. Deputy Sheriff O'Connell
OF. Rhame had his eyes open and grab
bed her. That night, with the sheriff
and Mr.. Blake, he visited the farm and
got the rest Of the family, and brought
them to Bowman. Several men were
also pulled in. one for violating the
prohibition law, n others for more
serious crimes. They were taken be-
fore County Judge Diehl, States At
torney Torkelson appearing for the
state. The woman pleaded guilty to a
statutory offense and was fined 800
which was paid. ~ -.
~ The others of the men pleaded gull
ty and were taken before Judge Craw-
draw penitentiary sentences. =
1t is probable that when the parties
get to Dickinson the oldest girl will be
married to a young man to whom she
has been engaged for some time. VIM.
Blake was appointed the guardian Of
the girl and we understand that he
will consent to the girl being married
to the young man. 81
A couple. of the men will no doubt
draw penitentiaFy sentences
Mr.. Blake will take the others Of the
family and find homes for them in
families where they will be given prop
er training. A. -@..'a =. So 70 49,

Different Views Held.
The act under which the commits
sion was created does not contain any
specific appropriation for defraying
the expenses of the commission with
the exception of the $4,000 annually.
The. members of the commission, how
ever, has advice to the effect that
they can continue to perform. their
duties and receive their salaries I'M
der the act
This view is not shared by several
of the state officials. The state audi
tor, it is understood, is prepared 10
issue warrants for the salaries and
expenses of the members Of the com
mission until the appropriation of 3d.
900 annually is used UP and will then
refuse to issue nor If such action
is taken, the matter will doubtless
reach the courts for final determine
ton.
Should the view Of the commission
be sustained, the effect of the veto
would be to allow the commission sew

than was intended by the legislature.

HIGH SCHOOL T

The Fargo high school is to have
of the best wireless telegrapny
outfits in the state. For the last two
weeks Mr.. Smith OF the physics de-
paPtment assisted by some of the high
school wireless sharks have been busy
getting apparatus ready and putting
up the aerial.
The aerial was put up on last Satur-
day and is one Of the biggest in the
state, being III feet high and IS feet
long. Thereare six aluminium wires,
one of the best metals yet dis
covered for this work. The board of
education rave considerable money to
go towards this work and when
finished 1t is hoped that the sending
apparatus will be large enough TO
send messages to Grand Forks and
possibly a distance of 100 miles. Far
go college is putting up a large ap-
paratus and the high school and the
college will probably do a lot of work
together in this line.
The Rivals written by Richard
Sheridan is the name OF the play
chosen by the senior class Ct the high
school to be given by them sometime
the latter part of May.
The play calls for eleven characters
which are all humorous and we'll made
up. The play is laid In England and
it is a., laughable farce from start 10
finish. It is a $ of two men fight
ing for a. ofna and as lis usually the
case the best man wins. Miss McCune
of the English department will have
charge of the play and it will probably
be given in either the Grand or the
Orpheum theatre.

Grand Forks, n. D., March 24.-The

been any violation of the, postal regu-
lations in regard to fraud. The mat

Gals of the company and as consider
able business of the concern has been
transacted by mail, the investigation
followed. -.
The case was turned owed to Inspec-
tor Gregg and he has been working
since. So far, 1t is understood, moth
ing showing fraud upon the part of
the officials has been discovered and
for that reason nc report has been
made to the Washington department.
Should anything be developed at the
hearing next Thursday, a report will
be made covering the case and the
further action of the federal govern

1t is not certain whether or not At
torney General Miller will be in the
city to conduct the prosecution in the

probable that Atty. j. B. Wineman,
