BEWARE OF MONKS SOLICITING.
Pair Travelling Over State Trying to
Secure Funds. .

Two men who claim to be Armenian
monks have been going the rounds Of
several Minnesota cities soliciting
financial aid. They claim to be sent
out on this mission by the bishop of
the HISTORIAN church of Armenia, but
do not carry any credentials to this
effect. Many people have been touched
by their pitiful tale of suffering and
woe and have donated money. They
visited st. James a few days ago and
made their customary rounds. The
good people of that city were 10 less
generous than those in other cities
they stopped off at. The rurported
monks, however, met their Waterloo
when they visited at one Of the Fergus
Falls cigar stores. They asked for
some cigarets and refused to pay for
them. When the proprietor insisted
that they reimburse him., they swore
f1uently in English. The matter was
reported to the police and the men
sent on their way. They will no doubt
be in Moorhead soon, and local people
should be on their guard.

WILL CONRAD ATTEMPT
TO WRECK NORTHERN?

Winnipeg, Man. July 21.-To wreck
the Northern league by means of put
ting an American association club in
Winnipeg, such is supposed to be the
plan Of H. P. Conrad. late dethroned
king. of the Fort William Northern
league club, according to- a rumor
which was in circulation in Winnipeg
last night. Conrad is said to be in
Winnipeg, having arrived here on the
late train last night from st. Paul, and
he is said to have made a statement
that he intended to put the. Northern
league out of business, owing to the
action of the league in driving him
out of the organization.
And Then What2
According to the. story, MI. Conrad
has secured a. franchise from one of
the American association clubs and he
is up here to see what can be done in
the way Of placing it in Winnipeg.
Of course, a franchise could not be
put in here without considerable
trouble, as first of all it would be
necessary to secure the sanction of
the American association clubs, and
secondly, it would be necessary to
purchase the Northern league fran
chise now held by Winnipeg men be-
fore this could be accomplished,
Burmeister There.
Mr.. Conrad could not be located at
a late hour last night, but it was stat
ed on good authority that he was in
the city, and whether there is any
truth in the rumor remains to be
seen when the st. Paul man is located
and gives his version of the a AT
any rate, Pres. John Burmeister of
the Northern league spent all day yes
terday in the city, and when asked if
Conrad would be given another
chance, he said:
Through With Conrad.
Gas far as the league is concerned,
we are through with him, and Mr..
Farrell had better keep clear of the
| case. as he has no jurisdiction over
such a case whatever

Examined many fields of this early
lot of damage in most of the early
wheat, the damage is about 20 per cent

At that the coyote woke up He
looked round and saw that 1t was

came back TO the earth to stay as LONG

Well, the two went on dancing and

very tired, and when that happened
the grizzly bear said to tho coyote:
Let us mako bargain. To please
me. lot 1t be dark half the time, and
to please you. let II be light half the
time" And the two agreed to that
After that was settled both of them

New Indian Animal Stories
Hop the Coyote Saued the Daylight
BY John Nj. Oskison.

Long time ago there was moro than
one story told to the little Indian boys
and girls to explain why night fol-
lows day and summer follows winter,
every day in the year and every year
Of the many years which pass between
the time you are tiny bit of a baby
and the time you are as old and wise
as the old men who told the stories
and longer than thati
One of these stories was told to the
little ones of a tribe OF Indians who
lived in the North
Once grizzly hear met n coyote ut
the edge of the woods, md they sat
down TO have a talk. After they had
talked awhile. the grizzly bear said:
"Of all the animals on tho earth l
aln the greatest In magic. When
wish a thing TO be SO, ii is SO. Now
! have been thinking for a long time
that tho darkness lasts too short a
time every day-and Pm going to make
1t dark all the while" But the coy
ote cried out:
"Oh. that wouldn't do Mt nlli That
would be too bad for the people and
all The animals. You must not do it!'
But the bear only said:
Yes, will do it: and I'll do 1t right
now!' And he began mt once to dance
and sing; Darkness come! Darkness,
come! Let Ii always be dark"
But at the same time tho coyote
(who also had magic, though lie had
never boosted that he had) began to
dance and sing. too And he sang
Light, light, light, light. May II be
light"
SO they went on dancing and sing
ing very long time, First the coy
ote got tired and fell asleep; and as
soon AS he was asleep the song OF the
grizzly bear twho went on dancing)
