MURDER TRIAL ON
TUESDAY MORNING
Opposing Forces in Holun
Case Arrive in Grand
Forks Today.
BOTH SIDES SEEM
TO BE CONFIDENT
Work of Choosing Jury to
Begin When Court
Opens Tomorrow.

AGED PARENTS AT TRIAD.
The father and mother OF Matt
lolum will nc present in the
court room Tuesday when their
SON is placed on trial for his life.
The father is 81 years old. and
the mother 50. but they arc still
able to travel. and refused to de-
sert their son i'm his present pre-
licament.
The opposing forces are lining up
for the trial of Matt Holum Of Milton
on the charge of murderng his wife.
which will open in the district court
at 10 o'clock Tuesday morning.
States Attorney G.. Crimson Of
Langdon. Attorney General Andy Mill
ler and Assistant States Attorney L.
G.. johnson of I.angdon, whu will
conduct the prosecution. as we'll us
E. r. Sinkler of Minot. who is repre-
senting Holum. are all in the city and
in readiness to begin the battle to-
morrow.
Holum was brought to Grand Forks
Saturday evening and is now lodged
in the county Jail. His seven months
Imprisonment seem to have had little
effect on him, and while unwilling to
discuss his case he seems confident
of the outcome.
Trial Continues Il Week.
The general opinion today among
the lawyers concerned. seemed to he
that the trial would last for Il week
or more. The time will depend large
ly on the difficulties encountered in
choosing the jury. This will begin as
soon as the court convenes Tuesday
morning.
1t is expected, however. that All en-
TIA panel Of jury men will be ncccs-
sary before twelve arc selected,
Will Be Circumsta ntial.
So tar as could be learned today,
the testimony to be introduced by the
state will be entirely circumstantial.
In spite of this fact States Attorney
Crimson seemed fairly confident Of
the outcome of the case. Mr.. Sinkler
seemed equally confident Of acquittal
for his client.
Holum was arrested in July follow
ing the death of his wife at the Hol-
UNI farm near Milton. The body of
tho woman was found in the stable.
In the preliminary hearing the con-
tention Of the state was that Holum
had killed his wife with a hatchet.
Holun denied this. claiming that the
woman had been trampled to death
by horses.
Tho accused man is about As years
old. and is a Norwegian by birth. He
had lived in the vicinity of Milton
for number Of years and Is fairly
prosperous.
Mrs. Holum. at the time Of. her
death. was several years older than
her husband.

Have booths in the room representing
the countries in which the church is

and all the appointments Of the booths
suggest the life Of the countries rep

piqued, information about these mis-.
sion lands may be circulated by the
help of questions on cards to be passed
around. Write the questions in black

answer to one Of the other questions.

rice until rather stifi and turn 1t into

turn upside down in dishes and serve
each dish with candy rat on top. The
