OFFICERS Led To
A FALSE TRAIL
SUPPOSED RELIABLE GLUE TO
THE HIDING PLACE OF PETER
BLEAU FOUND TO BE THE RE-
VERsE-HoWEVER, THE HUNT
is BEING KEPT UP,

The promising clue supplied to the
sheriff and police yesterday morning
and which was said would lead to the
arrest of Peter Bleau, the man who
shot c.. f. Taylor. last Tuesday night,
| turned out to be the very reverse and
the officers had to return to .Moorhead
without their man. However, the
search is being kept up with all the
vigor that al be brought to play in
the effort to nab the man guilty of a
very cowardly assault.
From a splendid postal card picture
of the man Bleau, the sheriff has had
hundreds of cards printed with a de-
scription of the mar and they nave
state n adjoining states with the
hope that some sheriff or policeman
will spot him some day.
One thing is certain, Bleau is not
as crazy as he was reported to be
Immediately after he shot Mr.. Taylor.
Some people think he has a strain Of
indian blood in him and that accounts
for some Of the alertness which he
must have practiced to keep himself
in the clear. The police believe now
that Bleau has reached the railroad
and has been smart enough to get
beyond the limits of the country where
he would be likely to be quickly
identified.
1t is stated that the people of Frazee
are indignant at the arrest which was
made there a day or two ago, alleging
that there was no basis whatever for
the arrest of Harry Roe and his
friends have forwarded all of the
particulars of the arrest to the at
torney general. But for the presence
of Attorney Baldwin at police head
quarters on the night of the arrest
of Roe the latter might have found
himself in a very peculiar predica-
ment

WANTS HIS NAME CHANGED.

Orlando Dammit of Hansford,
N. c., wishes to change his name
and has started proceedings to
that end. Dammit says his name
has caused him a great deal of
worry. For instance. it is a COM
mon thing to hear some friend
shout, Dammit come here a
second will you?"
Then again Dammit says it is
rather awkward for him when his
name is being called at lodge meet

comes to his, says, 30. Dammit"

Dammit. Good heavens it was

o WHAT is LIFEe

For what is life, if measured by the
space,
Not by the act?
Or masked man, if valued by his face,
Above his fact?
Here's one outlived his peers,
And told forth f~our-score years;
He vexed time, and busted the whole
state:
Troubled both foes and friends;
But ever to no ends;
What did this ~stirrer, but die late?
How well at twenty had he fallen or
stood!
For three Of his four-score he did no
good.

In bulk, doth make men better be;
Or standing long an oak, three hundred

1918 GRAIN HAS
BEEN MARKETED
FIRST RYE AND BARLEY MARKET
ED AT CoMsToCk THURSDAY
NO Definite REPORTS ON
CROP YIELDS CAN VET BE
MADE, SAYS VAN HoUTEN,

Mr.. Van Houten, the wheat expert,
says h a in reply to inquiries galore
from papers down below for reports
on yields from the fields which have
been cut, principally winter rye and
early barley and oats, his reply has
been, Il prefer to wait for the counts
of the half bushel at the spout of the
threshing machine. Any other report
is unreliable" He added that it will be
a week or ten days before there will be
a general harvesting of wheat.
The first marketing of winter rye
and early grain in the Red river valley
proper was done at Comstock on
Thursday when some carload ship
ments were made to the eastern
markets. .a.
The cutting Of small fields Of velvet
chaff wheat began a day or two ago.
The queen section for all kinds of
grain is said to be the communities
about Hawley, from which there are
expected some very interesting yield
stories when the threshers begin to
hum. 1t is said hat one field Of
winter rye threshed for Con Sprague
in this neighborhood turned out to be
rather light in yield. No figures were
given out. But the reverse to light
is to be shown on other fields and
from these fields no figures are avail
able,

developing his new industry. DR.. Ma
bours has advised with Mr.. Crawford
In the crossing of the sheep. He is
making a close study of heredity. He
is particularly interested in the pos
sibilities of interbreeding Karakules
with native sheep ard with hybrids.
If the hybrids produced follow the
Mendelian law Of Inheritance, it will
be possible for Crawford to get any
Of the pure-bred Karakules without
the necessity of importing more rams
from Asia. If the hybrids of pure
strains in the second generation do
not split up into pure bred Karkules
and pure-bred Lincolns, according to
the Mendelian law, but blend and breed
true, then this country will have a
new breed of sheep. And such a breed.
DR.. Nabours believes, combining as it
likely would the good qualities
of the Karakule and of the native
sheep. should be a very valuable one.

Damaged Pavement,

Officials and citizens of Moorhead
are mad clean through and it is be-
cause OF the damaging Of a stretch Of
the fine pavement'on Front street by a
man driving a traction engine, on the
large wheels of which there were large
projecting bolts which left their deep
impress on the creosoted blocks after
every revolution Of the monstrous
wheels.
The man in charge of the engine
crossed the north bridge yesterday
morning from Fargo where it is alleged
he did similar damage. Officials say
the man stupidity refused to use an
alley and thus not be obliged to use
the paved streets on his way to the
road between here. and Dilworth which
was to be put in good shape under the
auspices of the automobile clubs OF the
two cities, the officers of which are
equally indignant at their employee for
his gross display Of stupidity. The
driver of the engine was arrested this
morning and officers of the Fargo auto
club conferred with Justice Wade who
was told that the bill for damages
would be paid as we'll as any penalty
imposed upon the driver Of the en-
CINE. A lot of people think the driver
ought to be given a jail sentence as
an example to others-fning him will
be no punishment as others will pay
the fines. The auto officials from
Fargo were very penitent today and
regretted the stupidity Of their en-
ploye as much as anybody.
