EIGHT BUSINESS MEN
ACTUALLY SURVIVE AN
EARLY MORNING JUNkE7

In q desperate effort to get in
condition to cope with the coal
shovel and the wood pile, eight
Grand Forks business men this
morning adopted q new training
method. After flirting with in
digestion and dyspepsia for sew.
eral months, they resorted to the
old-fashioned country-town meth
cd of conditioning themselves,
and walked four miles before
breakfast.
The walk, which was one of a
series, was framed up by G. O.
Carpenter, physical director Of
the Y: NJ. G. A. One was held
Saturday, another this. morning
and a third will be held Wednes-
day. Carpenter brings up the
ear He Is armed with q long
pole, at the end of which is
sharply pointed nail. The tagging
junketer Is thusly reminded that
walking Is his duty.
This morning the men walked
out beyond Lincoln park. They
pegged 1t back to a point about
three blocks from the Y NJ. G. A.,
after which they broke into q
trot and raced for the shower
bath.
Breakfast was later attacked in
no humane manner.
Those who lived through it to-
day are: III. b. Frame, G. G.
Carpenter, H. III. futile, Randall

as possible, and every effort would be
made to send them home. When Miss
Ulven arrived in Norway all reserva-
tions had been taken up to November.
All Treated Alike.
Many persons offered large sums OF
were all treated alike. The first to
ask for reservations were served first.
The Mauretania was scheduled to sail
from Liverpool IN August 20, but it
was delayed for one week. Miss Ulven
states that this will probably be the
last trip of the Mauretania until after
the war, as the English are planning
to turn it into a utility ship.
Miss Ulven declares that all for
eigners who arrive in England are
compelled to register. She. stood for
three hours in a line at the Liverpool
police station and va, then told to
return the e day to register. She
returned the next dav and stood in
line for about two hours and finally
registered. This plan is followed so
that a close tab can he kept on all
strangers arriving in the country.
Uneventful Trip.
After leaving Liverpool the trip
home was uneventful. Miss Ulven
states. All passengers were required
to be in he'll state rooms at 8 o'clock
every night and no lights were al
lowed on board at night. The ship
was covered up DIS much as possible
Reports were heard to the effect that
the Germans were looking FOR the
Mauretania so that thew could sink
her. Only two ships were seen on
the trip over and it is thought that
they were freighters. There are sew
era1 ships sailing the Atlantic and
every precaution had to be taken to
guard against an attack.
Miss Ulven says that all Americans
ship get. along without much trouble.
but others are held no ~ a to go
through much red tape before they
are allowed to go on Their Nav..
Neutral in Norway.
Miss Ulven visited all the large Nor
wagian cities and she declares that
there is very little sentiment expressed
one way or the other on the war
proposition. Norway is neutral and
statements. She states. however, that
she believes the most of the people
blame Germany for the troubles. She
thinks that Germany has been looking
for trouble for a long time and that
that country is using the Servian cpl
sode as an excuse to fight.
The Mauritania landed in New
York on September 8. Miss Ulven
says that all the passengers were
once more. The trip coming over was
a very pleasant one. but under the
circumstances there was little oppor-
tunity to enjoy it. The weather was
fine, only n storm being experienced.
Miss Ulven visited In New York,
Washington. D.. c., Chicago and Min
neapolis before returning home.

Ida Ulven, who has lust returned to
her home in this city from Norway.
Miss Ulven left here on May 2, to-
gether with her sister, sigma, and sew
eral other local people.
Miss Ulven states that she planned
to leave for home on board the Water
land. which was to sail from Ham
burg on September 2. On account Of
the war, however, her reservation
had to be cancelled. and she took her
chances on getting passage. She ap-
piled at all the steamship companies
to make reservations. but secured
none until a week before sailing.
Miss Ulven states that there was
great excitement abroad when the
news of the war first came out. In
the Norwegian cities the people were
very scared and rushed to the banks
to draw out their deposits. The bank
ers refused to allow a run, however.
and things oon settled back as they
were before. Many other people
bought up large supplies Of flour and
other imported goods. Prices on i'm
ported goods have gone up, consider
ably. Miss Ulven' states. A short time
before leaving Norway $4,000 sacks Of
flour were received there from the
United States and there was great re-
joicing when the people heard Of the
consignment. go

Miss Ulven sailed across the North

that an English warship fired at the
Zeta on which she was Saline. max

captain and some of his officers rowed
over to the boat and interviewed the
captain of the Norwegian boat. When
it was found that the passengers were
Americans and were On their way
home the ship was allowed to go on
it's way. The English are very much
afraid That German spies will get into
the country, and for that reason they

is crowded with English warships.
Two Shots Fired.
Two shots were fired at the Zeta in
the early morning. Miss Ulven states,

attempt made to hit the boat, how
ever, and as soon as it was known
that it was an English ship the people
felt more safe.
Miss Ulven states also that she went
to see the American consul in Chris
tiania, Norway. every day for some
time. She and other Americans were
very anxious to secure passage home.
Mrs. E. A. falkland. Miss Laura Lun-
