KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS
They Will Attend Solemn High Mass
on Easter Sunday; Are Prepar-
ing for Big Session.

1t is not likely that Fargo council u
the knights Of Columbus will have
anything doing Easter week, for the
hall has been leased to several parties
during that week, which commences
March %. On Easter Sunday tho
council will attend solemn high mass
in a body n will listen to the annual
sermon.
1t is hoped that every member of the
council will be on hand on that occa-
sion.
1t is the intention to make the an
nual ceremonial session one of the
biggest that the council has ever
known and the date has been fixed for
either May 20 or May 81, as the mem
bers desire to keep away from inter-
fering in any way with the observance
of Decoration day, May 80. 1t is
known that there will be candidates to
take the three degrees of the order
from all parts of the state and as
usual the day will begin with the
knights attending church, followed by
the work at the hall, and ending with
a big banquet and dance. Further an
nouncements will be made by Grand

THOMAS CALLAHAN
WAS SENTENCED
THOMAS CALLAHAN, RESIDING
NEAR RIcHARpToN, sENTENc-
ED TO L~EAvENWoRTH FOR
MAKING FALSE STATEMENT IN
APPLYING FOR PENSION.

Pleading guilty to the charge of
making a false statement in applying
for a pension from the government to
which he was entitled, Thomas Gala
han was sentenced yesterday after
noon to imprisonment in the federal
penitentiary at Leavenworth for a
period OF n yea n one day, with
an added fine of $500.
The case was one of the most inter-
esting that has been presented to the
notice of the federal authorities in
some time. Callahan, who was born
in Ireland, moved to this country ear
~ in life and his family settled in
Wisconsin, where his cousin, another
Thomas Callahan, later enlisted in Co.
A of the Wisconsin Thirty fourth
regiment of volunteers in the civil
war. At that time the defendant in
this action was but 6 years of age.
Thomas Callahan, the cousin and
soldier, died and left no family and in
1886 the younger Thomas came to
North Dakota where he filed on q
soldiers claim and made use of his
cousins wal record in filing his final
papers with the government landoffice.
Two years ago he applied to the gov
eminent for a pension again on the
grounds of his deceased cousins mill
tary service.
His inability to accurately name
some Of the officers in his Cousins
company and regiment led to an in
v~estigation which resulted in his re-
cent indictment and arrest. The man
pleaded guilty yesterday afternoon
before the court and was immediately
sentenced.
1t is reported the grand jury has re-
turned about seven indictments out of
the dozen or more cases presented for
investigation, One of these, it is ru-
mored, concerns the case involving
one of the prominent citizens and
business men of Devils Lake who is
said to have been charged with send
ing obscene matter through the Unit
ed States mails. "

GIL IS U. c. r. WE'RE REMEM-
RERED AT THE LAST MEETING
NIGHT, PREPARING FOR NIGHT
OF MARCH 90.

The last meeting of the Fargo coun-

ing his presentation speech to Mr..
Bishop and the latter had drawn from
his pocket his prepared speech and
found that it was the n he had in
tended to deliver at Red Wing, Thorn
as e. Dunn, secretary, arose n CEN
sured Bishop for attempting to deliV-
err an old address.
From that he began to speak at Mr.,
Christianson and before he a finish
ed the latter was the possessor of a
handsome insignia ring, with the EN-
blems of the u. G. Z. nicely engraved
thereon, a gift from the council. Mr.
Christianson was deeply affected by
this kindness at the hands of the mem
bers and said so in a few well chosen
words.
There will be a big meeting of the
council on Saturday evening, March
20. on which occasion it is expected
that there will be a class of thirty &c
take the degrees. This will be the last
meeting at which Senior Counselor

A gentle knock and, in a whisper:

day school workers of North Dakota
to have 1000 delegates to the great

many have promised to attend that it
is now proposed to run a train from
the vicinity of Fargo, and this ar
rangement is likely to be carried out.
jamestown had the last convention
and it was the largest that had been
held, but 1t is expected that the COM
ing one will be even greater.
