GIRL SUICIDE
BY CARBOulC ACID
Trouble Impels Flora Livingstone
of Fairdale to Commit Rash
Act That Ends Life

One of the saddest tragedies in the
history Of the county occurred at the L
Grimes, or old Tom Thomas farm home
about ten miles west of Milton last
Wednesday morning, when Flora, the
nineteen year old daughter of P. H.
Livingston, committed suicide by drink
ing two ounces OF carbolic acid mixed in
a glass OF water.
She had been working at the Grimes
place the past few weeks and appeared
cheerful and we'll contented except at
times when she had a siege of blues.
On the morning of the tragedy the
family and help arose at the usual hour,
which is about four o'clock. Miss Liv-
ingston stayed in bed a few minutes
after being called, and then came down
and went about her regular duties of
preparing breakfast for the men at five
o'clock. Mr.. Grimes, who Is of a jovial
disposition, remained at the table a few
minutes and joshed Miss Livingston,
who appeared to be IN good spirits. He
then went to the barn and the girl went
about her duties again, and brought a
quantity of -four from a storage room
upstairs. While on one of these trips
she went into her room, drank poison
and layed down on the bed. Groans,
caused by the excruciating pains of the
burning acid, we're heard by Mrs. Grimes,
who rushed out and called her husband
who hurried to the girls room and
found her gasping for air in her death
struggle. Home remedies we're brought
into use and a call sent in for DR.. Joistad
of Fairdale, but before the physician ar
rived she was dead. She was badly
burned about the face and 1t seems that
she had lot swallowed a portion of the
poison until in bed, and the acid had
run from her mouth and burned her
about the lower part of the face. The
acid used by the suicide had been in
the house for a couple of years and she
knew OF the whereabouts of the bottle.
After emptying the contents she threw
the bottle out of the window.
1t is rumored that she left a note for
her sister, explaining the cause of the
rash act, and there are also many other
aRoat, but as yet no definite
cause has been advanced as a reason for
her act. She was we'll known through
out that entire locality, and we'll liked
by all, and the tragedy is a cause for
grief in many homes where friends re-

The state OF North Dakota is uncer.
tain as to its political complexion in
1914. The people have become so in.
dependent in their politics that they re.
fuse to be bound by old presidents and
old worn out ideas of having to stick to
party without respect to right or wrong.
They are going to and will, vote for that
which they believe to be the best and
are OF going to come in under the party
lash as readily as they did some years
in the past. The democrats have as
good opportunity to win and carry the
greater part of their state ticket in 1914,
in this state, as any other party, and
perhaps a little better. The political
battle will be an interesting one.

Base Ball Notes
STANDING OF THE CLUBS
ned its schedule

Langdon's base ball team opened its schedule
of league games on the home grounds in a
double header with Munich's aggregation OF
hit and run producers on Decoratian Day
The crowd in attendance to witness the game
numbered over 500 and although our side did not
WIN out in the afternoon the the boys put up a
game that satisfied the rooters and gave a few
nerve racking experiences to the %victors,
In the evening Langdon had on its winning
streak and pulled off some stunts that kept the
crowd in good natured .jubilation all the time.
As the box score shows two and three base hits
we're effectively INDUCED in and Langdon's
home twlrlers produced the sample of pitching
that mystifed Munich's stick artist.

COMMUNICATION

Editor Courier. Democrat
In order to put the matter of the pro-
posed removal of hitching posts from
certain of the streets of the city of Lang
don before the residents and patrons of
the city so that there may be no mis-
understanding as to what is contem-
plated, we desire you to give suitable
space to the following:
In the first place it is not the purpose
of the city council to compel the removal
of any hitching posts or rings until suit
able grounds are obtained for a public
hitchlng place. The council has in con-
temptation two places, either of which
we believe will be satisfactory to the
public. The first place is a tract SO feet
by 300 feet and just south of Allison's
livery barn. The other tract is just
north of Allison's barn and is 60 by 300
feet. 1t is proposed to put up good
hitching places and to put up salts
factory fences as windbreaks, and to
keep the grounds up in a good shape
and to keep them clean and sanitary.
These grounds will be open and free to
the public at all times. If this is done
we do not see where any one can object
to the removal of the hitching posts
from the streets where it is proposed to
prohibit them.
The posts which it is proposed to re-
move accommodate but about Is teams
at the most, and when it is considered
that upon most any day there are twice
that many teams in the city, and upon
Saturdays many more, it can be seen
that only a few of the patrons of the
city are being accommodated at present.
We believe therefore that our plan of
trying to give good accommodations for
all who wish to leave their teams out
side should meet with the approval of
the public.
Again it must be admitted that at
least one of the places where hitching
posts has been allowed is more or less
dangerous, and we do not fee that
justice to the pedestrians who pass the
place permits the retention of the same
1t is planned to leave one or two
places for temporary hitching, that is tc
allow a person to tie to enable him to
run into the stores upon errands. Nor
is it planned to prevent the temporary
stopping of teams on the streets any
more than in the past. All we contem
plate is to prevent the hltching of teams
on the parts of the streets covered by
the ordinance and leaving them there
for any length of time.
AS we have stated above no change
will be made until we have provided
suitable public hitching ground, ane
when that is done we feel justified il
taking the steps proposed.
Respectfully,
Committee of City Council,
Mayor of Langdon.

SHIPPING SPHINX TO U. S.
Treasure Found Near Memphis, Egypt,

Announcement was made recently at
the University museum at Philadelphia
that Professor Flinders Petrie has
shipped to the museum from Egypt a
twelve ton sphinx which he has Just
dug up near Memphis. The sphinx is
of red granite and bears the head Of
Rameses II. This is one of the most
notable additions to the museum COL
lections and will adorn the new ro-
tunda so o o ais it is completed.
BY an arrangement recently made
the University museum shares in the
expense of the excavations under Pro-
fessor Petrie and receives it's share of
the discoveries. 1t is expected that
this arrangement will greatly enrich
the museum, which already has many
treasures from Egypt.
