a Forks went home winners in
the tri-city athletic contest held at the
I yesterday. They scored $50 points,
fargo coming second with 480 points,
while jamestown was third with 40
points. The losing of the basketball

nnal score in the game was SO to 9.
Grand Forks also defeated jamestown
IN the basketball contest, which count
ed $50 points. They won the swim
ming contest, and also the volleybalI
games with both jamestown and Far
go, and several minor events. 81
In bowling the Fargo boys came out
first with a total Of 4613 pins, as
against Jamestown's 4419, in six
games. Grand Forks did not compete
in the bowling.
The local boys still have a big lead
in the race, as they were far ahead
in the membership contest previous to
the meet. There was a good crowd
at the evening events, and interest
and excitement ran high. All the

Cold Weather Coming From North and
West--Snow Storm Predicted To-
Night and Tomorrow.
Got our YOUR furs and sleighs!

Get our your furs and sleighs!
1t was stated at the local station
Of the United States weather bureau
at Bismarck today nat the gentle rain
which began to fall early this morn
ing and was in progress late this aft
ernoon, would probably turn to snow
and that people hereabouts need not
be surprised if they should have to
Wade through a deep snow on their
way to church tomorrow morning.
More than that it is predicted that 1t
will be a snowfall which is not likely
to disappear in a hurry.
The reading of the local barometer
this morning was 1898, but Mrs.
Grasse said it was low compared with
the readings in the far west and north:
Calgary 30.52; kamloops, the farthest
western point IN the Canadian rail-
roads 1882; Bismarck 1906; HaVre,
Mont, 1880; Rapid City, S. D., 30.06;
Miles City 1890; Williston 30.18; so
that it is sure to grow colder in these
regions.
The minimum temperature here this
morning was AZ degrees at Z o'clock.
The forecast is, much colder tonight,
Sunday and Monday, with brisk north
west winds. The maximum tempera-
ture yesterday was 60 degrees. 1t was

The Men Made Coed.

The entertainment and supper,
under the auspices of the Mems
Birthday club Of the Swedish Luther
an church, proved a very profitable
undertaking as the people Of the
church responded to the appeal made
in good shape. There were no charges
Of admission, the men believing that
a free will offering at the close would
net better financial results. The Of
fering amounted to $1,000 and added
to this was SIS which was paid in on
account of old subscri otions so that
the men were able to hand over to
the treasurer of the parsonage fund
$3.50. Not only financially was the
affair a success but it was socially and
the best Of spirit was manifested in
all directions. During the past year
the residence for the pastor of the
church has been modernized, a full
cement basement has been constructed
and a first-class heating plant INSTALL
ed, in all about $500 has been ex-
pended.

Bartlett Frazier Co.: There seems

enough irf volume to cause any last

Lamson Bros: While we feel that
wheat Is at an attractive level, it
must be acknowledged hat heavy
supplies in nearly ever quarter Of the
globe n limited demand for the
United States surplus will continue
to operate against the buyer for the
present.
Ware e Leland: The wheat mar
ket has had a good rally from the
low levels and to sustain a further

Is necessary. Believe sales on bulges

Chicago, Oct. 25.-Wheat: Has mark
ed time all day closing 1-8 lower than
last night and trade utterly devoid of
feature. A break in ocean freights
was responsible for the working Of
some Manitoba's but No. 2 hard offer
ed at a very low price failed to bring
a single reply. Farmers deliverieS
TINS side of the line are showing a mod
crate increase but wet and colder
weather expected to interfere first Dart
OF next week. We see nothing in the
present situation either at home or
abroad to buying at present
levels and believe one should await
good declines before reinstating long
wheat.
Corn: Experienced an early decline
on which the local crowd oversold and
a little buying by commission houses
and the leading long quickly frmed
price and a half cent advance occurred
which was held to the close. The
weather predictions over Sunday Great
ed considerable apprehension. Cash
corn was in poor demand and premiums
lost one quarter of a cent but if colder
weather comes this should materially
improve. We would await declines on
when purchases are recommended.
Oats: Have done little EXCEPT follow
corn selling off with the corn and
frming up later and closing a shade
under last nights final figures. Selling
pressure will be in evidence on good
upturns.-Chas. E. Lewis & Co.
