THE FOLLY OF
STANDING PAT

The students of Fargo college who
attended chapel this morning listened
to a splendid address by DR.. Guild of
The Courier News.
DR.. Guild who was formerly a min
lister in the pulpit, has a compelling
and sparkling style Of speech which
~captiVated the college students. His
main thought was to the effect that
students, as well as citizens, should
be progressive in thought and action.
1T is all right to stand pat at
times, but we should not be like the
Bulgarians, who still plow with wood
en- sticks because their fathers did.
They are good standpatters, but do
not accomplish much"
DR.. Guild told how the streets in
Boston are said to have been out
lined by the roaming Of a calf which
a down a crooked trail. Unprogres-
sive men followed the tracks, estab-
fishing the city's thoroughfares.
In concluding his interesting talk
DR.. Guild affirmed his faith in the
Christian college. He declared that
teachers should be such examples and
inspirations to students that in later
life when temptations surge strongly,
the precious memory of that guiding
light will be an inhibitive power, an
influence toward the good.
The talk was followed by a burst
Of applause hat testified to the i'm
preston made on the students.

holm. a we'll known bartender in one
Of the prominent establishments near
the north bridge, received a telephone
message from n Kennedy who is
said to have been q fellow worker at
one time. Mr.. Kennedy is alleged to
have asked the loan of a diamond ring
as he was going to be married and he
wanted ito appear to be somebody and
put on a little style" 1t is said that
the desired jewelry establishment
valued at $287, for the nuptials was
supplied, but although a reasonable
time has elapsed since the supposed
wedding the bridegroom and the ring
have not been heard from and no posi-
tive clue as to their whereabouts has
ben scented. Efforts have been made
to keep the matter sub rosa, but last
night some interesting remarks leak
ed out and it is said Mr.. Chisholm is
slightly worried.

CLAIMS HE WAS
ROBBED IN JAIL

Walter Coles, a young negro, arrest
ed Inc in the city Jail, made the claim
this morning TO the police hat he had
been robbed Of $25 during the night.
AS he had been searched before being
committed to the Jail, the police were
inclined to question his statement. But
he made the assertion, and stuck to it
so strongly, that ali O. the nine pris-
oners in the bullpen were marched
into the courtroom n searched.
The search was very thorough. Ev-
cry. man was made to remove his
clothes, and every pocket and seam
was examined for hidden money.
Just as the search began, an officer
saw, out of the corner of his eye, one
OF the prisoners try to hide something.
He grabbed him, and found a five dol
found on him, and he protested that
fellow prisoner, a little Norwegian
feller'', who, he claimed, had left the
Jail with the w~orkhouse gang early in
the morning. r.
err one of the prisoners. 1t was in his
shirt pocket. He claimed he had had
it all the time, but the statement was
contradictory to the one he made when
sentenced to the workhouse. He said
then that he had beer robbed, and
hadn't a cent to a his fine.
When the search was nearly com
pleted, an officer spied a little wad of
bills on the floor beneath a chair on
which one of the men was sitting. The
wad contained three 81 bills, which
made $13 Of the missing SIS. The rest
was not found, though the police
"frisked' the little Norwegian" thor
oughly.
It seems that Coles was too open in

ing over the fact that he had money
enough to pay his fine. He didn't have
when his fellow prisoners got through
with him.
Another little negro who was cross
.Eexamined said that he had seen the
exhibition of the money the night be-
fore, and had cautioned Coles, refus-
ing even to sleep neal him. for fear
Coles would blame him if he lost 1T.
When asked il he hadn't gotten any
of the money at all, when it was dis

DRUNKEN THREsHER SETS FIRE.
Twenty-one Horses Cremated and
Two Barns and Granary Burned.

Peter Sullivan, a prominent farmer
at Key West, a prosperous community
near Cast Grand Forks in Polk coun-
ty, suffered a loss of nearly $4,000
by a fire on his farm early yesterday
morning. The origin of the blaze was
a lighted match thrown in the hay in
Of the barns by a half drunken
thresher who had recently returned
to the farm after a night spent in the
saloons at Fisher. The horse barn
with all of the horses was destroyed
also another barn and the granary.
one of the barns was among the finest
+ structures in Polk county. A
dozen men sleeping in one of the hay
mounds had to make a hurried exit
from the building-one man sleeping
down stairs was awakened by the
smell Of fire and sounded an alarm.
The dwelling house was saved. The
owner had less han $4,000 insurance
Paving allowed several thousand dol
lars worth to lapse only a few days
ago. 1t is said that the death cries
OF h horses was something terrible
to hear.

POLICE ARREST SUSPECT
Man Complained of Being Held Up
Police Make Arrest-CompIain-
. ant Disappears.

A man by the name of Stevenson
came to the police station last night
with the complaint that he had been
held up and robbed of $85. He de-
scribed his assailants as large, stout
fellows, and also described their
clothes, n other personal character
istics.
The police kept a watch for any sus-
picious characters answering to the
description, and found a man who
exactly to fit. He had $3.50
on him when he was caught.
Strange to ay, the complaining wit
ness has not appeared to identity the
prisoner, who is being held in the city
Jail, and nothing can be done with him
until the man who made the COM
plant puts i'm an appearance.

FORKS MURDER MYSTERY
IS STILL UNSOLVED

Grand Forks, N. D., Oct. 3.-Unless
some clue is discovered at once to the
identity Of the man whose body was
Wednesday morning in a hay
near Ninth avenue and Oak
street, the body will be inferred with
further delay.
The only clue which might possibly
lead to the discovery of his %riurderers
which has been found as yet Is the
.44-cabiler bullet, which was found in
the clothes of the dead man.
1t Is feared by the police, however,
that this will be of little assistance in
locating the murderer.
Hear Shots.
The statements of Mrs. Albert
Strutz and Charles LePage, who live
the place where the body was
that they heard pistol shots
late Sunday night coincide with the
opinion expressed at the inquest by
DIR. Gustav Ruediger Of the state uni
versity, who performed the autopsy on
the body.
DR.. Ruediger stated that he did not
think the man had been dead much
longer than forty-eight hours, at the
time of the finding Of the body.
The testimony at the coroner's in
quest Wednesday of the men who
found the body, however, Indicated
Iiia = sllooGiAS COulQ not nave &C.
Cured while h man was lying insthe
hay stack.
Arm Doubled When Shot.
When the body was found, the left
arm was lying straight by its side.
The course taken" by bullet, how
ever, shows that at the time of the
shooting the left arm must have been
doubled across the mans chest.
The verdict of the %coroner's jury was
the man had come to his death
by violence at the hands Of persons un-
known.
The man had apparently had his
hair cut recently and 1T has been sug-
gested thai n of the BARRIERS of the
city might recognize him a a recent
customer.

saying that there is every prospect of
bad weather. caused a marked in
crease in export demand, 100 loads
Manitoba and forty loads of United
States wheat, mostly No. 2 red. We
expect a firm opening and possibly
higher prices.
Corn-The action of yesterdays mar
ket led us to believe that outside trade
are not in sympathy with an advance
at this time and will oppose It,. we
would not be surprised to see a lower
market on corn after a firm opening.
Oats-Continued competition Of Can
adian oats and cargoes of these oats
bound for Chicago, Toledo, Buffalo
and lake ports will inevitably result
in a reduction of domestic cash prices
to an equal basis with Canadian oats.
Trade have been misled into believing
only 100000 600 bushels of exportable
Canadian oats. They exported about

crop is 10000, 600 bushels larger than
