ing Will be' acting chief until after

Chief Fortune denies that he is

Harried's Story.
Harried is an Assyrian boy, ~
years of age. His story is as follows:
He claims that on the Oath day Of
September he was arrested by Chief
Fortune, on warrant sworn out by
himself, on the charge of peddling
without license.
Goods Taken.
Harried claims that he was taken to
the city hall, down stairs. and that
$72 in cash, and a large grip full OF
clothes, were taken from him, by
Chief of Police Fortune and Patrol
man Mason. He says he was then
thrown in a cell and locked up, and
that after an hour or SO Judge Cas-
selnan appeared and told him that
unless, he paid $26 he would get 80
days in Jail.
Ordered Out.
He protested, but he says that Cas-
selman swore at him, and said he
would give him 80 days, anyway. He
was fined $25, and told to get out OF
town quick. Mason called an auto,
the boy claims, and loaded him and
his grip into it, himself jumping in
after him. He took him to the Mis-
souri, river bridge, and told him never
to come back, or he would be fined
some more.
After the auto and Mason left him
at the bridge, he opened his grip and
found NEARLY all of his goods gone,
and $26 cash left inside. He esti-
mates the loss of his goods at $61.25.
Retained Attorney.
He walked to Mandan and retained
Atty VIM. LANCER as his attorney.
Attorney LANCER came to Bismarck
and investigated the case, which re-
suited in search Of Casselman's and
Fortunes houses on a search war
rant, sworn out by Harried, Constable
Watkins making the search.

claimed to be his were found in For
tunes house. States Attorney Berndt

three men, Casselman, Mason. and

The French announcement says
the Germans continued day and night
attacks, only to be repulsed. 1t is
evident they are showing plenty Of
fight, and are making supreme ef.
fort to prevent the Allies working
around their right. The French
claim slight progress and also the
capture of number Of prisoners.
The official press bureau, regard

says:

Russians Making Progress.
Both sides profess to be satisfied
with position. Having invested

Carpathians to sweep across the
plains of Northern Hungary, but in
strength toward Cracow, which they
may reach before the week is out,
unless the Austrian field army sue
ceeds in checking the advance. Their
arrival at Cracow will be signal for
battle along the Russian German
frontier, which cannot long be de-
layed.
OF the operations around Sarayevo
nothing was heard today, but the
Servians and Montenegrins must be
ready soon for a grand assault on
the city. The Austriahs also are be-
ing attacked at Cattaro. There is
more talk of Italy, Ruumania and Tur-
key becoming involved in war, but

CREAM BUSINESS
Reaches Large Proportions West of

Pierre, June 26. - Practically
$4,000 a day for cream from sta
tions between here and Wasta is the
record now, the shipments coming in
running from $50 to $50 cans for
each days shipment. These cans are
worth from So to $40 each to the
farmers. and the showing is one of a
steady stream of cash receipts going
into that country daily, with a net
return for the best cream months
which will make the old time beef
cattle returns look small. This is
only the shipments over the North
western through this city. and re-
ports from along other lines of road
extending into the old range coun-
try indicate that they are doing a lot
of this kind of shipping as we'll as is
the Northwestern. To put the cream
receipts along the Northwestern line
alone at over a quarter of a million
dollars for the year would be to make
them more likely under than over
what will be actually received. and
the business is growing every year.

ANY one can make an application for

there is merit TO it, calls for a model.
If there is no merit the patent is then
rejected and the SIS goes into Uncle
