George p. f oulkes, special agent Of
the customs service of the treasury
department, returned from the border
today. He said he was unable to give
out the names Of the men involved,
but that the cattle were seized by the
government and will be sold. 4 A set
tlement may be made between the Of
tenders and the customs department.,
according to Mr.. Foulkes, Sor they may
be- served with warrants, and the
cases taken to court. 35
e Not all Of the cattle that have been
struggled into the country have been
traced by the agents of the customs
service. Some have been located at
Hallock, MINI. The district between
Warroad and St. Vincent is said to be
infested with smugglers. A ....s. ss
Jud LaMoure, collector of customs
in the Red Wing district, and: Special
Agent Foulkes have been at work
along the border for two weeks. Their
efforts have been directed toward the
apprehension of a man who they say
is very prominent and politically a
power in that section and known to be
a smuggler, although neither has been
able to catch him red-handed.

Mothers Wait

GRAVES OF FOUR GIRLS BRING
BACK MEMORIES OF EARLY &
TIMES IN MARMARTH.5

Marmarth, N. d., Aug. 29--On a
little fiat overlooking Beaver Creek
are four mounds, unmarked save for
rough weather-stained head boards
from which the elements have erased
all legend, and beneath these rude
mounds lie the earthly remains of four
erring daughters. Four girls of the
underworld met violent deaths in Mar
marth in the days. when it was the far
test western point on a great railway
that now reaches to the Pacific coast.
Without benefit Of clergy and coffin
less, they were consigned to shallow
and hastily dug graves in what is cal
lousy called Marmarth's ''short order"
grave yard. s.a -, 4.
Of their names or homes there is no
record. OF their life stories only sucn
meagre shreds as linger in. the memo
ries of the Oldest settlers remain; pu,
somewhere there are four sad-eyed,
gray-haired mothers waiting for the
return of the girls who went away,
saying prayers and shedding tears for
the erring ones who will return no
more.
The sage-brush of the desert has al
ready claimed the forgotten graves,
the boards are crumbling into dust and
the story is fast vanishing from the
minds of men, never to be reviewed
until the four stand in Judgment be-
fore their Maker - Il +

Only in a few scattered places, where
the fall was sli ght, was there any pre-

This was the first day since the
1913 crops began to move shat Min
neapolis receipts mounted to notable
proportions. There were ;939 cars Of
grain brought into the railroad yards
over Sunday. Although the Monday
receipts Of 1,5O0t to 1000 cars are Of
record here, today's total was heavy
for the date SO early in August. A
year ago today the total was 76O, the
increase being 179. There were 491;

Flax is a late crop again this year
and the linseed oil trade is closely
watching developments. &c. War.
ner, president of the Midland Linseed
Oil company, said that every day Of
such weather as ruled today means
greater raw material supply for the
Minneapolis oil mills.
Much depends upon the maturity
of the late fax" Warner said. 'The
government has estimated 1000, 900
bushels as the probable fax seed pro-
duction for Minnesota, North and
South Dakota, but there is much
more immature flax that will make or
not according to the weather. Fine
weather is adding many bushels every
day to the total" .5s ass5S..$ .F$
