TARIFF BILL
PRESENTED
TO HOUSE
Of Bill in Engrossed
.". Form Necessary
May Take Recess
While Senate Considers Bill
President Has Not Stated His
Views on Currency Question

Washington, May S.-Delayed last
night in its passage, by a parliament
airy technicality, the Underwood tariff
bill was ~engrossed today for presenta-
ton to the house at it's hour of meet
at 2 o'clock this afternoon, because of
democratic insistence on a point of or
der against the republican motion to
recommit the bill to the ways and
means committee, with a view of fore
ing a tariff commission provision, the
reading of the bill in it's engrossed
form was made necessary.
There is talk among house leaders
OF taking a recess of about thirty days
during the senate consideration of the
tariff. While there have been indi-
vidual conferences on the subject, the
fact that the president has not vet
communicated his views regarding
questions of currency legislation at this
or the regular session, p%recluded any
formal consideration of what the
house will do when it disposes of the
tariff.

HEARING HELD TODAY
Thomas 5yers Being Heard Before
Police Judge Miller on a Very
Serious Case.

Thomas Byers is having a hearing
this afternoon before Police Judge
Miller on a charge of having commit
ted perjury. 1t is alleged hat he made
false returns to the county court in
asking for a marriage license when he
testified that Bertha Parmenter, now
his wife, was IS years of age last
February and that the consent of his
wife's mother had also been given to
the marriage. Her father alleges she
was only Is years in April.
1t is stated that Mr.. Byers will tes-
tify that his wife told him she was IS
last February and she also claims she
is that age, and that consent was in a
given, although this was not nee
essary as she was IS years of age
when the license was. issued last
month. The case will be, ]stubbornly
fought by the father, Elmer M. Par
menter, who made the complaint. Each
to the case has secured attorneys.

ADDITIONAL SPORTS
UNIVERSITY IS
GIVEN A BLANK

Grand Forks Herald: In the first
practice game of the season, the uni
Versity got one slipped over on them
and went down to an ignominious de-
feat by letting the Moorhead normal
blank them in a l to 0 game. Car
lander, pitching for M~oorhead, humili-
ated the varsity by striking u fifteen
men in the seven innings played. Both
teams were bashful about hitting, but
four hits being made on each side. The
game was played in spite of the mud
dy condition of the field and the con-
slant drizZle Of rain.
,Moorhead made the lonely tally of
the game in the very first inning. Nc
Clane singled on the first ball pitched
and was advanced to second on a pref
ty bunt by Paxton. Bestine famed,
but B. Carlander made a hit through
first and McClane registered the win
ming score. Carlander was caught a
second later trying to pilfer second.
The Moorhead players got men on Sec
ond and third in the fourth inning,
but the rest of the game they never
threatened " to get to second.
The university was close to scoring
in the first inning, but with men on
second and third, Carlander took the
game in hi sown hands and struck
out the last man. The university made
a very strong bluff at scoring in the
sixth inning. Harper. after taking two
strikes, singled to right field. Sagen
famed, but James singled over second,
advancing Harper a base. Heising sin
gled to center and The university lost
it's best chance of scoring by playing
safe and holding the runner on third.
Carlander again called a bluff and
with a splendid variety of sweeping
curves, retired the side while the bases
were full by striking out Lowe and
M~cCutcheon.
The game was fairly fast consider
ing ten condition of the field. Moor
head fooled twice and the varsity
men wer guilty of one error.
The university were good in field
ing, but, woefully weak at the bat.
Considering the wet condition of the
ball, fifteen strikeouts out of a possi-
BILE twenty-one, is little short of dis
graceful. It is. UP to the university to
strengthen it's offense. 1t Is true that
Carlander exhibited exceptionally
CLASSY pitching, but that does not ex-,
cuse fifteen ~strikeouts. II the univer-
sity is to win gamesit must strengthen
it's batting.

MISS PINHEY GAVE.
INTERESTING TALK

This morning during the chapel
period Miss Charity Pinney of the
senior class gave. al Grafton entitled
Child Labor. 1t was one of the most
interesting and educational talks ever
delivered by a high school student
before the assembly room.
Miss Pinney made a comparison of
the Pied Piper of Hamlin. to the Pied
Piper of today. which she called greed
and she said that the children of to-
day are not led to the great beyond
by music but are led there by fear.
Miss Pinney said that the subject
was three fold. one of the child, one
of the school and one an economic
one and on these three headings she
based her talk. The speaker gave il
Illustrations of how ignorant the boys
and girls of the laboriEg type are and
how in many different instances they
are unable to read or write and a
good many of them do not know their
own James ~
Miss Pinney said that in early life
there are two forces at work to make
the child. These are the forces call
ing the child to the higher things of
life. and those calling him to make
money and it is only when the first
instances are the stronger that the
child will develop into a fully rounded
man or woman. If the latter instincts
conquer, the child will become a
hardened soul looking only for money.

CONTEST RIGHT
TO HOLD OFFICE

Minot. n. D., May S.-Another con-
test has grown out of the recent city
election at Mohall, l.. E. Gates having
instituted an action against Ell. i.
Weber over the Office of city treasurer.
It appears that Gates received So
votes, one of the ballots however, con-
tanning both Gates and Weber's
names. This ballot was declared in
valid, this giving him So votes, the
same number as Weber had been:
credited with. Weber was declared
elected, however, on the tie vote. Web
er contends, however, that he had
a majority of 5 votes, or a. total OF. ST
votes instead of SO, claiming that 6
votes which should have been counted
were declared invalid by the election
board.
Messrs. Swenson and Nash are rep
%resenting the plaintiffs in three other
contests which haveSbeen instituted in
connection with the same election, the:
contestants in these cases having been
defeated by the action of the election
board in ruling out the six ballots

PIONEER india n
WOMAN dies

Bismarck, N. D., May s.-Mrs. Alma
j.. Parkih, n of the earliest pioneers
of the state died at a local hospital
late last evening. She was a direct
descendant of Two Lance, hereditary
chief of the Sioux tribe of Indians,
and was a woman who was directly in
touch with the stirring scenes of the
earlier settlements. BY a marriage
to a white husband she was
a connecting link between the conflict
ing emotions and desires of the white
settlers on one side and the remnants
of the proud Sioux on the other.
, Mrs. Parkin is known to thousands
of army officers old settlers, and
travellers who have stopped at her
ranch while going to and coming from
the reservation. She. was highly
educated and one of the most respect
ed wome in the state. Special trains
will be run to Cannon Ball, where the
funeral will be held Sunday.

ARE WATCHED

Queenstown, Ireland, May S.-Two
of the crew of the steamship, Merton,

until the vessel reaches Liverpool.
They are under suspicion of being
connected with the murder of Lindsay,
the third mate, whose body was found
in the Delaware river after the Mer-
ion sailed on April ~. It is earned
that blood stains were found on the
steamer, leading to the suspicion that
Lindsay was slain on board, and his
