FOREIGN WAR DUTY
HANDICAPS YOUNG MEN

Grand Forks, N. D., Aug. 14.-Prof.
Paul Conte. local music instructor,
who was detained in Italy, his native
land, a'month after he had planned to
come to this country, being compelled
tC serve in the Italian army during
that period, arrived here Wednesday
night.
Professor Conte does not anticipate
that Italy will be dragged into the
present European war unless either
Austria or Germany makes a decIara-
ton Of war on the country, and he
believes that Kaiser William and En-
peror Joseph nave enough on their
hands at the present without joining
with the opposing allies.
Army Requirement Bad.
Professor Conte, though a resident
of the United States since he was .
years old, served his allotted period In
the Italian army. He maintains that
the army requirements of the nation
rob many young men of a good chance
in life. as it takes them out Of COM
mercial and professional life Just at
a period when they should be most
successful in laying the foundation for
future success.

Valley City, N. D., Aug. 14.-That

mental in placing many Of it's former

month and average better than $40,
salary in each case being commensu-

CLEAN RECORD IN The
SECOND JUDICIAL DISTRICT

Devils Lake, n. D., Aug. IA
Having disposed of several cases re-
Gently there is now not a single case,
motion or proceeding pending before
Judge c. w. Buttz of the second judi
cial district. This is a condition which
exists in perhaps no other district
IN the state.
Among the cases recently cleaned
up was that of the Farmers Railroad
VS.. Peter Regain and the Minneapolis
T~hreshing Machine Co.. At the close
of the trial each of the parties made
motions asking for directed verdicts,
and this according to law makes the
case out of the hands of the jury.
Judge Buttz granted the motion of
Mr.. Regain for dismissal of the action,
denied the motion of the Minneapolis
T~hreshing Machine Co, and granted
the motion of the Farmers railroad
for a verdict in it's favor and against
the Minneapolis T~hreshing Machine
CO. only, for $269.5S, interests and
costs. The company had shipped
, threshing machine repairs for Peter
Regain, which were delivered to Mr..
Regain, and the company then claimed
that the delivery was without authOri-
ty and they demanded of the Great
Northern the value of the repairs and
received pay, which the Great North
ern in turn demanded from the Farm
ers' railroad. The latter brought suit
against Regain and the threshing ma
chine company to recover either the
repairs or their value. The verdict
was to the effect hat Regain was
entitled to the repairs, the value OF
which was ~Wrongfully claimed by the
threshing machine company.

mother Of the plaintiff and the defend
ants. The mother died Jan. l., 1901,
and before she had made final proof.
Afterwards the plaintiff made the nee
essary improvements and final proof
on the land. The daughter. Miss
Paulina, has always lived in Germany
and has never been in this country.
The other defendant, Albert Schon-
berg declared his intention to become
a citizen of the United States in 1874.
He has lived in this county ever since,

UNFORTUNATE WOMAN
sent TO The ASYLUM

Ray, N. D., Aug. 14.-Miss Augusta
M. Flowers was taken to Williston and
examined by the insanity board of the
county and adjudged insane. She was
taken to the asylum at Jamestown to
receive treatment at that place. Since
the death of her husband last Febru-
airy, Mrs. Flowers has been subject to
attacks of melancholia and it is
thought that worry over different mat
tiers brought on the last attack. A
short time ago her brother took her to
Minnesota in the hopes that the
change would be of some benefit. but
she gradually grew worse and she re-
turned here last week. This is a very
sad case, as she is q young woman and
leaves a little son about II months
old, which will be taken care of by
friends in Minnesota.

HIGH SCHOOL EXAMS
WILL NOT Be OPTIONAL

Bismarck, N. D.. Aug. 14.-The pro-
posal of the state high school board to
make the examination Of graduating
students optional does not meet with
the general favor of classified high
schools, as indicated by a vote, just
announced. One hundred and seven
schools replied, and sixty-t1ve propose
that the examinations be continued on
the present basis, being compulsory.
Asked if the examinations should be
entirely abandoned, Ia of 1875 replying
schools answered in the negative. AS
a result the board of education prob
ably will abandon the plan Of making
examinations optional with the stu
dents. "
