phia were found.
Simonin's fortune was inherited
from his mother and the greater port
of it was spent in New York. The au.
thorities estimated that he spent at
the rate of $1,000 a week. He was un.
successful in trying to obtain a posi-
ton after his money had gone, but
while searching 70 rome he met Oliver,
who remembered him in the palmy
DAYS, took him to the Oliver home in
Philadelphia, gave him funds and as
sured him he was welcome to remain
as a guest as long as he pleased.
1t was shortly after this, according
to Oliver, that he began to miss jew
elry, the climax being reached about
three Weegs ago, when the greater
portion of Mrs. divers diamonds

From Valley City Times-Record,
80 years ago:
Our early settlers it seems did not
put much by the shakespearean stan
"a, whats in a name?" A rose by
any other name would smell as sweet
as shown by the frequent change Of
the name of their county and towns
Barnes county was named, at the
time of its survey, Burbank" in
honor of one of Dakota's early poll
ticians. BY an act Of. the legislature
the name of the county was changed
in Oct, 1875, to Barnes" in honor
Of A. H. Barnes, now Judge of this
judicial district. The first name the
town took was when the railroad was
surveyed. 1t was then called Second
Crossing of the Sheyenne River, and
as soon as a side track was laid was
called Fifth Siding. In 1872 the
railroad company named the place
Wahpeton, which name it held until
1874, when an attempt was made to
organize the country and the name
Of the town was changed to Worth
ington; the town was known by this
name until 1873, when the country
was legally organized and the town
name changed to Valley City. the
most appropriate it has had.
