OF Game Warden McCutcheon Of
this district, and! taken to Willis
ton for trial. IIe plead not guilty
but was fined $40 and COSTS He
refused to pay the fine or costs and
was sentenced to ten days in the

This is the first arrest and con-
viction in this district in 1914 and

the warden mapping.
According to the story, the
special agent stopped in the farm
er's house for a meal, and found
the chicken hanging in the shed.
The farmer explained that it had
flown against the chimney and
killed itself. The bird was still
warm and the agent examined it
ana found the chicken full of shot.

SETTLERS TERR0R|zED
BY BUTCHERS BUNCH"
FARMERS DID NOT DARE MAKE
COMPLAINT WHEN CATTLE
WE'RE STOLEN.

Raleigh, N. D.. Jan. 28.-Since
the arrest of Sam McGregor, Jack
Guyer and c. e. McCullich on the
charge of cattle rustling. more facts
are being brought to light. 1t is
claimed the trio were in what was
known as the "butchers bunch"
and for more than a year had been
stealing cattle and calves from the
Russians. Their names were
known. but they had the settlers
so terrorized they were afraid to
make formal complaint. The
trio came to grief when several 4
year-old steers were stolen from
herds on the reservation. 1t is
claflaea; hat at least fifty full
grown animals were taken. Many
incidents of the depredations of the
gang are reported.

|NCEND|ARY BURNS
FARM BUILDINGS
RYDER MAN MADE HOMELESS
BY FIRE WHICH DESTROYS
HIS PROPERTY.

Ryder, N. D., Jan. 28.-The house
and barn on William Powelson's
farm, six miles northeast of Ryder,
were destroyed by fire Of inccndiary
origin. The buildings were valu-
ed at $1,000, with $500 insurance
5000 on the house and $500 on
the barn. In the house was stor-
ed $40 bushels of wheat and some
flax, valued at over $500. His
clothing, furniture and kitchen
utensils were also burned, making
quite heavy loss. The neighbors
hurried over as soon as they saw
the flames. but could not save any
thing. Had there been an avail
able water supply the place could
have been saved.
No clue has been found as to
who the perpetrator of this bastard
ly deed was, but if he is found he
should be given the utmost penal
ty of the law. Mr.. Bowe1son has
no enemies and his friends are at
loss TO account for this act, un-
less it was for the purpose Of steal
ing a portion of the grain and
covering the theft by firing the
building. He proved up on the
homestead in 1909 and has been
making improvements on the place
ever since. An inspection of the
place after the fire shows that no
grass was burned between the house
and barn, and the fact that fire
was burning inside the barn when
discovered shows that it could not
have caught from the house fire.

WHAT A TOWN CAN
Do BY UNITED EFFORT

There is one little town III Ohio
that has risen from a comparative
ly dead condition to one Of business
activity all on account OF the build
ing of a fine system of turnpike
road. The township each year
makes an appropriation of so many
miles of pike, and the farmers that
contribute the most money and
work each year get the pike out
their way. One result of this
kind Of pike building is that the
improved roads have been con-
structed about mile over the d.
viding line between other neigh
boring towns, creating several
miles of good pike leading to the
live village. There are nothing
but dirt roads to the other towns.
AS conditions now stand, the neigh
boring towns have not awakened
to the situation, and the town with
the fine roadways is far outstrip-
ping the others in business activi-
ty. Farmers never fail to visit
the town that possesses improved
roadWays leading to 1t.

PRESIDENT TALKS
 ABOUT BUSINESS
Expresses Conviction That Condition Depends Only
 on Attitude.

Washington, June 1-President Will son today again expressed his convic- tion that any present unsatisfactory condition in business was not general, but was less felt in the United States than any other part of the world. Mir. Wilson reiterated his view at the first conference he has had with the Wash ington correspondents since the MeXi- can situation became acute. Ques- tions, however, on that subject and on the Niagara mediation conference were barred.
 In reply to inquiries concerning the business situation, the president said it was his impression that any unsatis- factory condition centered very large ly about the railway offices and that was reflected in the steel industry and in other industries closely allied, which depends upon railway develop ment for prosperity.
 The president believes prosperity would come with jump if the manu- lecturers believed it was coming. He does not believe the tariff has any thing to do with the depression. Sec retary Redfield's statistics of exports over imports was cited as proof by the President
 Discussing the Clayton trust bill, the lPresident said he did not under stand the act was designed to grant to labor organizations any privileges they do not now enjoy. It is the pur- pose of the act, as he understands it. to define the rights of labor organiZa- tio!as more clearly and remove any doubt of their rights which has been created by various court decisions. It is not the understanding of the Presi- dent that labor organizations are to be given any privileges denied to any other organization.

WHEN ARM FAILS.
 WALSH WILL FIELD

Boston, June Ed Walsh is in- volved in the scheme hit upon today by Jimmy Callahan. The White Sox manager plans to develop Ed into an Outfielder, and if his arm fails to come back this year, the one-time iron man of the staff will be of value to the club by holding down an out post.
 Callahan does not believe that Walsh will come back. As a matter of fact he is sure that by July Walsh will be able to take his turn but at the same time Cal knows Ed will be unable to work as he once used to-

PASTIMES AND ELECTRICS TODAY Three Teams of City League Are Tied for First
 Place.
League Standing.

With three teams of the city league tied for first place the game this aft ernoon between the Pastimes and the Electrics will be of considerable inter- est to. the fans of the city. If the Electrics take the trick the Pastime bunch will slide into second place, leaving the Bedells and the Cleggs tied for the top position. The Elec- tries have succeeded in losing all three games and unless they take a winning streak soon they will have a hard time overhauling the other three teams. Manager Young is anxious to capture the bacon today, as he feels that it would not only put the pep into his bunch to garner game, but it would, he feels, break his streak of bad luck. The Electrics have good team but on account of failing to hit at opportune times and general lack of team work they have always left the park with the wrong end of the game tucked away.
 The Pastimes are a fast, clever bunch and they present strong front as contenders for the rag.
 A large crowd is expected at the Athletic park this afternoon as the members of the Democratic conven- ton being true fans as well as true -'crats will probably turn out en masse.
 The line-ups for the two teams fol- low:
 Pastimes-Gardner, ss; Allen, 1b; O'Connor, If; Hutson, 2b; McAlexan- der. c: Parker, 3b; Rebecca, If; Man. ming, of; Harris, p; Merrick, Vowcll and McAleXander.
