on Friday.

Fred Dietz shot himself at Medora
Wednesday night. It is said that he
feared his old illness as coming on
again and became despondent.

and was 49 years Of age at his death.
He came to Medora during the early
eighties and had been employed at the
court house a good deal, acting as
jailor for quite while. He was well

the west.
John Boulger Of Boulger & Hughes
went to Medora on Thursday to pre-
pare the body and bring the remains
to this city Friday morning. De.
ceased was a member Of the local Elk
lodge and the members were making
preparations to conduct services al
the cemetery, probably soon after the
arrival of the body. ny 1.

Cometh." DR.. Morrison delivered a

Cometh." DR.. Morrison delivered a
most impressive sermon. He said
that things Of greatest vital import
ance to the world had come Of dreams.
Instance after instance was sighted
where this was true. Some of the
greatest and most useful inventions
were the result Of a dream. Many of
these would have been utter failures
had not the inventor been borne up
through times of Encouragement by
the inspiration of a dream. In clos
ing he told the class that if they had
a dream to follow it to the end. If a
dream to make money, to make it, not
for the money itself but but for the
good they could do with it; if a
dream to do great things to do them,
not for the things in themselves but
for the good that would come of them.
The Methodist choir rendered two
pleasing anthems. Mrs. Carl Ander-
son sang the solo "Abide With Me-"
Rev. A. G. Hacke gave the invocation
and Rev DR.. Griswold Bragaw the
benediction. 90. Vs.

GILBERT AND ANDERsONIN PEI

Two young fellows, giving their
names as Fred Gilbert and William
Anderson, were sent to the peniten-
tiary, the past, week from Stark
county. They both claimed to be
from Indiana. Gilbert was given
two years and Anderson 18 months.
Last Friday: morning they broke
into Adam Mischel's store at Richard
ton, taking about $40 worth Of cloth
ing. They also broke into the West
ern Supply Co. store, where they Sc
cured some $40 in silver. This was
a fine haul for the burglars and they
started east, boarding No. 8 at
Knife river. 53
3 j. r. Baggenstoss, manager OF the
Western Supply Co., held an early
conference with Commissioners
Mischief and started search for the
burglars and it was not long until he
had them at Glen Ullin and the fol-
lowing day they were in Jail at Dick
inso1l. \
g After they foudn what evidence
States Attorney Cain had they de-
cided to plead guilty.

old hands at the business and very
likely they are the fellows who
broke into places at Medora early
last week. .:sfS IS e. .:s

church parlors Friday evening Of last
week. Some sixty sat down to the
table which extended around three
sides Of the room. ... s...5ss
After the last course was served
POSTMASTER Tuft, after a few re-
marks, called on Fred Deiters. It
was a surprise to Mr.. Deiters but he
responded to the enjoyment Of all.
Donald Mars was then called upon
and responded to the toast q Lemons .
Echoes" by A. A. Harleman proved
to be both instructive and interesting.
Mr.. Tufft said that Mr.. Heffron was
sitting back and listening for the
echo Of election, and called on him.
To this he responded. adults was
handled by Rev. j. G. Morrison in
both a jovial and serious manner,
Miss sophronia Gaylord responded
to "Giggles." This she defined in a
very amusing way. J. "a. Gibson, one
Of Uncle Sans obedient servants, re-
sponded to the toast sU S. Miss
Bessie johnson was the last speaker
Of the evening. Her toast was
ends" In closing her speech she
mentioned several things that had
ends and one was her speech. The
toast list was unique in that the first
letters Of the toasts made up the
word LEAGUE. J !
The room was decorated in pink
and white, the League colors and
looked very neat. 80 ..;s5
The boys certainly deserve aslot Of
credit for the way in which they
served the fine meun.

OAKDALE FARM SITE

Mr.. and Mrs. F. w. Turner, son,
David, Engineer and Mrs. Baldwin
and representatives Of the PRESS
made trip through Taylor and Rich
ardton and as far east as Antelope
the first of the week. They visited
the oakdale Farm, the property of
r. s. Brookings, on the way and were
most cordially received by this early
settler Of Stark county and the hos
|pitable members Of his household.
Mr.. Brookings has an ideal stock
farm, watered with never failing
springs. The glen north Of the build
ings is wooded, forming an ideal pic
mic ground. ~ '@s s5:e;..
The Oakdale Farm has one of the
largest barns in the county, the loft
Of which easily holds 100 tons Of hay.
This barn is fitted specially with box
stalls for. stations. Mr.. Broohngs
lis; the owner Of imported Belgian
horses which are conceded to be the
finest stock Of their kind in Western
North Dakota and as good as can be
found any where. This farm has
long been noted for it's fine registered
stock, and any person interested il
good horses viii profit greatly by
making a special trip to the place. .
There is q great deal Of interest to
be found at the Oakdale Farm. II
was at this identical spot that Gen.
Custer rested in 1876 on his memor.-
able march So the Little Big Horn.
The rife pits are still visible on the
hillside Just west OF the buildings.
History does not tell us that there
was an engagement at this point but
the hills north made a natural hiding
place for the Indians and hence the
Custer train could not afford to take
any chances. A few years later, when
the Fort Keogh stage line was put
through from Bismarck, the present
IBrookings site was made the first
stopping place out from the Missouri
river. Oak log buildings were con-
structed and IL is is only recently that
Mr. Bfookings found II necessary TO
take down the same.
