SENTENCED FOR A
THIRTY DAY STAY
FEDERAL JUDGE SENTENCES
MAN FOR FORGING BROTH
Frs NAME TO PAPER.

Mott, NJ D., July 9.-John Ketch-
ell Of Brisbane was brought here by
Deputy United States Marshal John
Gammons from Fargo to serve a
jail sentence of thirty days i'm
posed by Judge Amidon in federal
court where he plead guilty to the
charge of fraud in connection with
the issuing of naturalization pa
pers.
1t appears that the defendant,
while making out application for
citizenship papers, committed the
grave mistake of signing the name
of his brother to certain docum ents.
In some manner or other the Off
cials of the federal governme ent
got hold Of this and his arrest fol-
lowed. He was taken before Judge
Amidon, where he entered a plea
of guilty. The jurist evidently be-
lieved that the act was committed
more through dense ignorance Of
the naturalization laws, than OF in
tent to commit crime. In passing
sentence the surrounding circum-
stances were viewed carefully, the
defendant receiving the lightest
possible sentence after entering his
plea.
Ketchell will remain in Hettinger
county Jail to serve his thirty days
after which he will return to his
farm.

IKE ROSS TO JOIN
THE REPUBLICANS
WILL QUIT THE. DEMOCRATIC
PARTY UNLESS HE GETS 75c
FOR HIS WHEAT,

If the famers of Burke county
are unable to get 75c for their
wheat next fall old Uncle Ike Ross,
janitor at the court house, will join
the republican party. Mr.. Ross
has been a democrat for 81 years,
anu has always prospered under the
republican administrations. AL
though things always came his way
pretty much and he seemed pretty
we'll contented with his lot, he in
sisted that if the democrats were
in power times would be even bet
ter. This year Mr.. Ross has one
of the finest fields of grain in
Burke county which promises to 60
at least 25 bushels to the acre.
The only thing that can prevent
him from making big haul from
the field this fall would be low
prices when the wheat was rea Y
for market. Although Ike has
stuck to the democrats all his life,
he confided to The Tribune that he
would be unwilling Ito stick to
them any longer If he was compell-
ed to suffer financially on account
of It. Just watch the wheat prices;
next fall, and then take look once
in while at Ike's politics.

BOY WAS KILLED
At GARRISON, n. D.
is, ACCIDENTALLY SHOT BY
PLAYMATE IN WOODS
ALONG MISSOURI.

Garrison, N. D., July 8.-Rudolph
Steinmund, age 18, son of John
Steinmund. prosperous farmer
living a few miles east of this
place was shot in the forehead by
John Peters and after lingering for
five hours died. The accident oc-
cured about ten miles southwest
of this place on the banks of the
Missouri river, where three Stein
mund and the Peters boys had
gone to gather June berries.
Peters, who is II years of age,
had a twenty-five calibre rifle with
him and when bunch of horses
began to bother the team he fired a
shot into the bushes to frighten
the horses with the noise and was
not aware Of the whereabouts of
the boy at the time. The bullet
fired lodged in the boys forehead
and it is presumed it entered the
brain.
The other two Steinmund boys
placed the wounded boy in the
wagon and almost killed the horses
in driving them to town in order
to consult a physician. They made
the drive in about half an hour
but their efforts were futile as the
doctor could do nothing to save the
wounded lad, who expired few
hours after reaching here.

LARGE CROWDS At
MOUSE RIVER PARK
ESTIMATED THAT OVER 5000
PEOPLE WE'RE PRESENT AT
THE CHAUTAUQUA.

A big majority Of the people Of
Bowbells and Vicinity went to the
Mouse River Park to celebrate the
Fourth and many staid week or
more in camping on the banks Of
the murmuring Mouse. Saturday;
and Sunday were the big days at
lthe park and it is estimated that
over $4,000 people were present.
Those who attended the chautauqua
on those days tell The Tribune
that the only kick they had against
the Management of the park was
the fact that the accommodations
were not sufficient to meet the de-
mands of the big crowds present.
There are only two wells on the
place and these were pumped Cry
every few hours. A much larger
number OF people was present than
what had been expected, and ar
rangements had not been made for
entertaining so many people. Many
improvements are being made each
year at the park, and twill take
several years more before things
will be running smoothly there.

While on his return from the
Mouse River Park last Sunday aft
ernoon Attorney Geo. H. Phelps
had the misfortune Of having the
rear of his big Buick car slip off
from a grade short distance east
of town, and for few seconds it
looked very much as though the
machine was about to tip over and
roll into the ditch. He managed
to stop it just in time, and then had
it hauled back on the road with a
team. Mr.. Phelps is very care
ful driver, but the wet condition
of the roads were responsible for
this near-miXup. Besides Mr..
Phelps the car was occupied by
Mrs. Phelps and the Misses Busk-
rude and Holub.

MILLIONS IN RA|S.
ING GEESE HERE
JUDGE C. ]. KOPRIVA TO MAKE
A. FEW MILLION BUCKS IN
RAISING GEESE.

Every person has right to his
own opinion, and In most cases the
person talking Is right. Many
farmers here insist that there is big
money in raising hogs, while others
money losing proposition. Others
can make more money raising wheat
than they can at anything else, and
still others prefer the cattle bust
ness. Judge c. j. Kopriva of this
city Is unwilling to agree with
any Of the above named people,
and insists that there Is more money
in raising geese in Burke county
for the amount of investment and
work involved than there is in rails
ing anything else. Ever since he
came to this great Bowbells coun-
try the judge has been raising
geese on small scale, and has
kept close track of the expense ne
cessary for their keep, and also
the amount they brought in. After
giving the proposition thorough
tryout year in and year out for ten
years, taking in dry years and wet
years. and everything else that
came along, he is sure that a man
here with 500 geese tc start with
and a quarter section of land would
soon become millionaire. Mr.
Kdpriva is raising a large flock of
young geese this year and intends
to buy some more blooded birds
next winter, after which he intends
starting the accumulation of a
few million bucks. He invites the
readers Of The Tribune to watch

BAGGAGE CAR ROB.
BED BY B0LO GANG
TRAIN is RIFLED BY SEW
ERAL ROBBERS.

Darlington, N. D., July 9.-Five
or six robbers boarded No. 107,
west bound passenger on the 500,
at Courtenay. There are two bag
gage cars on the train, and the rob-
bers entered one of the cars at
Courtenay, when the baggagemen
were in the other car, and rifled a
lot of trunks and private baggage.
They locked the door thus keeping
the baggagemen in the other car.
They are presumed to have jumped
from the car at Kensal. When
the train pulled in here four sus-
picious characters were pursued by
United States Marshal Doyle and
trainmen, but two of the four re-
fused to give themselves up, and
when fired upon oy the officers
continued to run and made their
escape. Two were captured, but
afterwards released as they were
able to prove themselves innocent
of any part of the hold-up.
Just how much booty the robbers
secured it is impossible to state at
this time. A vigorous hunt is be-
ing made for the robbers. ,5

Burglars Appetite
Calls for Fruit at
Mercer Residence

hungry burglar with an appetite
partial to fruit entered the home Of
Jesse Mercer, former State Game
Warden, at No. SAL West Peachtree
street, in the early hours of Monday.
He climbed in a rear window, held
the window open with an odd con-
traption-a stick atop of a grape
fruit-and proceeded to spread for
himself feast
From the traces left he ate about
dozen oranges and grapefruit and
mixed himself a milk and egg shake.
He ransacked the first floor, the fam
lily being peacefully asleep on the sec
onds and left without taking anything
of particular value, although he had
strewn valuable silverware all over
the place. 1t is thought the noise of
an awakened neighbor next door
scared him away. Charles Marshall,
of Fielder & Allen, was the neighbor
who went securing for the thief when
his wife thought she heard an in
