Alevy's flat refusal to give an ac-
counting to the firemen's pension
board for money derived from the
concert last summer of the Port

Libey Case In

FORMER PUBLISHER OF GOOD
RICH CITIZEN WAS SUED
IN DISTRICT COURT.

McClusky, N. D., April IA libef
case growing out of the 1912 campaign
in Sheridan county came up in district
court here on Monday. This is case
in which former County Judge L. A.
Dunning sued w. ]. Burt, formerly Of
The Goodrich Citizen for Islander, de-
manding damages in the sum of S.
900. The quill-pusher from Goodrich,
who now Yields the weapon at Bow
don,, in the capacity of editor of The
Guardian, used such expressions as
drunken sot," etc, in writeup in his
paper of the then county Judge who
was a candidate for reelection, This
the judge resented, and he. felt his
feelings wounded to the extent OF
$4,000. Hence the suit. The outcome
of it was that the court instructed the
jury to bring verdict for the defend
ant, which it did. It was not shown
in the testimony that Burt had any
reasons for the alleged libel-the YER
dict was directed on some technical
grounds.

Man Put
Gasoline On the Fire

J. H. Lubbehusen, the auctioneer,
was badly burned about the face and
hands in an explosion.
He had helped the Henry Groth
family move to their new home in the
Ludwig Hansen house in this city. 1t
was chilly day and he started to
build a fire. There are several con-
flicting reports as to how it happened
but it seems that he picked up what
he thought was kerosene can and
started to pour the liquid in the stove.
The liquid was gasoline and there was
fire in the stove; the result was an
explosion. Fortunately he had heavy
fur coat on which protected his body,
but he was severely burned about the
face and hands. He was taken to the
NJ. D. Willennar home, where a local
physician dressed the burns which
proved extremely painful. It will take
two weeks or more before he will be
able to be out again.
The fire department was called out
but the fire was out before they
reached the building.-Litchville Bull.

North Dakota Girls
Are Missing
LOST IN STORM AND NO TRACE
OF THEM FOUND.

Bowman, N. D., April Lost in
the storm of last Sunday and no trace
found of either Of them is the sad
news concerning the Misses Hazel and
Ethel Drake, two young women who
resided south of town near the Hamil-
ton ranch.
1t appears that Ethel, who was the
younger of the two, and who lived
with her older sis<er on her claim
near the Hamilton's, had been nursing
Mrs. Elmer C. Bailey, neighbor who
has been very sick.
On Saturday night about 10 o'clock
she left the Bailey's and started for
her sisters shack, a journey of about
four miles. 1t was very DARK and the
possibility of losing ones way is great
because of the fact that there is no
one living between the two places.
On Sunday morning Mr.. Bailey, de-
spite the storm that had been raging
since about o'clock, started for the
home of the Misses Drake to ask Ethel
to return, as his wife had grown
worse. Arriving there he discovered
that she had not put in an appearance,
and the only conclusion was that she
had lost her way.
Nearly distracted, Hazel started out
in the afternoon to seek her sister, and
no trace has been seen of either of the
girls neice.
Neighbors Of the girls have organ
lied searching parties and secured the
whole district but haye been unable
to find them. It is thought that they
may both have fallen into some of the
open, unguarded wells, with which
that section abounds.
Both girls were we'll known and
highly respected. They were promi-
nent in the social affairs of the neigh
borhood and active members of the
Farmers club.
The distressing accident has cast a
gloom over the whole vicinity.
