PIONEER RESIDENT
IS CALLED BEYOND
Unexpected Death Thursday Even
ing of Mrs. D. Woolner at Her
Home in Langdon

The death of Mrs D. Woolner oc-
cured Thursday evening of last week k
about nine O. clock at her home in this
city, the end which came quite sud-
denly being due to a paralytic stroke,
with which she was siezed during the
afternoon and practically leaving her
in an unconscious condition up to the
time when she passed away. The de-
ceased was a little over eighty-two
years old and for the past twenty
years had made Langdon her home,
coming here in 1894, following the
death of her husband, the late Rev.
D. Woolner, pastor of the Congrega-
tional church at Michigan, N. D., at
that time. Since her severe illness
of last February, when she was seiz-
ed with a stroke of paralysis for the
first time, she had been enjoying the
average good health Of an elderly per-
son. Had been around her home dur
ing the day, and had planned to spend
the evening at the home of one of
her neighbors living on the same
street. She had been a resident of
North Dakota since the early terri
torial days, coming from her home
near Coventry, Englan d in 1870 to
join her husband, who at that time
was in the United States army. Prev
ious to coming to Langdon she had
lived at St. Johns, Drayton and at
points in both Grand Forks and Cass
counties, being we'll known as one of
the earlier pioneers of the northern
portion of the state.
The funeral held Saturday afternoon
from the Presbyterian church was
quite largely attended by the people
of Langdon and vicinity who during
her long residence in their midst hac
found her identified with much of the
church and social life of the commun
ity.

BRYAN ENDORSES SENATOR PURCELL

Secretary of State William Jen-
nings Bryan, in the October issue of
the Commoner which is just issued,
has the following to say relative to
the candidacy of Hon. w. E. Purcell,
who heads the democratic ticket at
this falls election as the party s
candidate for the United States SEN
ate:
VIM. E. Purcell, who represented
North Dakota with such credit and
distinction in the United States SEN
ate in 1901 as an appointee of
former Governor Burke, who is now
federal treasurer, is the democratic
nominee for United States senator in
North Dakota. Senator Purcell is a
man keenly alive to the needs and
requirements of North Dakota. He is
a close student of national affairs, and
by virtue of political affiliations and
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1914-10-29

personal acquaintance with President
Wilson and democratic members of
the United States senate, would, if
elected, be able to Immediately take
up the work upon his arrival in
Washington, and be of great service
to his state and of great assistance in
carrying out the platform pledges of
the democratic party. During SEN
ator Purcell's short term in the sem
ate he has served as minority member
of the investigation into the Ballinger
land scandals. His uncompromising
position during the investigation COM
manded attention. Mr. Brandeis said
of Senator Purcell: "While Purcell
was United States senator he took
front rank in that body; was neither
awed by big interests or the great
men representing them. Senator
Purcell's experience as United States
attorney, member of the North Dako-
ia constitutional convention, state
senator and as lawyer, has prepared
him as few men have an opportunity
of taking up the work in the larger
field offered him in the United States
senate and to pursue it with an insight
could only come from years of service
in an effort to right the wrongs of the
people. Senator Purcell has pro-
nounced views on all public questions,
is in complete accord with the politics
of President Wilson, and if elected to
the United States senate could be
depended upon to cooperate to the
fullest extent in not only maintaining
the advance ground taken by the
national administration, but would be
a valuable aid in pressing the work
forward to completion. Such men as
| Senator Purcell are needed in the
United States senate and every demo-
crat and Independent progressive in
North Dakota should give him their
support on election day, November
3rd. - w. J. BRYAN.

VIOLENT DEATH OF
MT. CARMEL Man
Life of Dominic He'll Crushed Out in
a Runaway Accident on Farm
Monday Forenoon

Friday forenoon at about eleven
O'Clock Dominic He'll, met with a
violent death at the farm of his
father Charles He'll, north of Mount
Carmel and near Mowbray, while
operating a manure spreader. The
deceased who is the eldest son of Mr..
C. He'll and about twenty three years
old, had just completed putting load
on the manure spreader and was start
ing for the field when the team hitch
ed to the machine started to run
away. He was mounting to the seat
in front and was thrown down when
the horses started to runaway. In
slipping he fell so that the machine
in passing over him crushed his skull
under one of the hind wheels. Those
from the house saw the accident and
he was Immediately carried in doors
but never regained Consciousness, dy-
ing in less than an hour. In the
meantime doctor and the parish
priest, Rev. j. A. Kern, were sent
Tor, the latter administering the
last sacrament before the unfortunate
young man breathed his last. He
had grown up from child in the
Mt. Carmel settlement and as a
young man had by his steady and
Industrious habits gained the respect
and friendship Of the entire commun-
ity, who deeply sympathize with the
family in their great sorrow so sud
denly visited upon them.
The funeral was held from the Catho-
lie church of Mt. Carmel Sunday fore
noon, attended by large crowd OF
friends-and relatives from far and
near, quite a number of Langdon peo.
pie being among those present.

.MID-WINTER COURSE
OF FNTERTA AILMENTS
Literary Society of High School to
Offer First of a Series of Five
Monday Evening

The Langdon high school literary
society has decided to offer the public
a five number lecture and entertain
ment course during the fall and
winter months of the season, 1914
Is.
Three numbers of the course have
been chosen, the remaining two are
subject to the choice of the patrons
of the course. The course is under
the direction of the University of
North Dakota Extension Department.
For the numbers chosen these dates
are permanent:
Nov. End = Commonwealth Male
Quartette.
Jan. 28th = DR.. Charles Payne,
traveloist.
March 22nd-Miss Jeanette Kiln
reader
These represent the lyceum talent
from outside of our own state. The
two remaining numbers which should
be given during the months of Decem-
ber and February must be chosen from
the list of University lecturers. The
expectation is that the needs of Lang
don should inspire the patrons to an
investigation of the talent at the
states leading institution.
The Commonwealth Male Quartette
of Boston, which has been on the
American Lyceum platform since
1901 consists of the Messrs. C. E.
LeTevre, second tenor and accom-.
panist; w. E. Paine, first tenor anc
pianist; c. M. Cassell, basso and A,
H. Carpenter, baritone and reader.
Its acknowledged title throughout tn,

country is ''The Quartette of Enter
tainers. y Another press and lyceum
critique is the most versatile male
quartette now engaged in Lyceum
work. They will give three part
program, one of which will be in
colonial costume, another in outing
costume and the last in full dress
costume.
The expense incurred in bringing
this famous quartette to Langdon
necessitates a minimum admission of
fifty cents. They appear Monday,
first number of the course and only
the forerunner of the many other good
numbers to follow.

BOAT RETURNS ON
TRIP DOWN RIVER
Bernhard Barge Passes Through
Rock Island Bound for
Louisiana Metropolis.

The Bernhard barge. which Is max
ing the initial trip from New Orleans
to St Paul and return, passed through
Rock Island shortly before noon yes
terday on the journey down stream.
II left st. Paul Thursday.
With the current of the river in its
favor, the craft is making much better
time on the return trip than on the
way up.
Another barge will be sent over the
waterway in the near future by Mr..
Bernhard, he claiming that the first
journey was not as successful as
might have been, and that valuable
information which can be used to ad-
vantage on the next attempt was
gained on the present voyage.
When the matter was first proposed
the river was high, being 10 or IL feet
over low water mark. II was thought
at that time that but little or no trou-
bic would be experienced by the boat
But in a month the water dropped
10 three feet. what is claimed to be
the biggest fall known in recent years
on the stream. This is attributed to
the freshet at the time. which swelled
the river and the dry spell which fol-
lowed. Thus with the water lower
the conditions for an excellent show
ing were not as bright as at the time
when il was first planned.

itary life. The officers, who are sup
posed to have it easy at these encamp-
ments and other army maneuvers,
were kept busy from sunrise to sun
set each day of the entire week spent
at the camp. The privates drilled
three hours in the morning and from
IL O'Clock until after the supper hour
had nothing to do whatever. But the
officers drilled with their men in the
morning and in the afternoon took five
and ten mile hikes with the army in
structcrs learning tactical warfare, and
then after supper they took part with
their respective companies in guard
mount and dress parade.
Many new faces were on the COM
pany roster, but the men were quick
to learn and presented as nice an ap-
pearance in the drills as any of the
older comanies. Since Captain Duna-
vim recognized the local company the
men have shown a new spirit and are
taking interest.
Following are the members of Com
pany a who made the trip; Captain

ticing to get into shape. The team will
probably work at the outdoor range
in Geneseo the week before the con-
test. This range is used in practice
as it is the only one with 1-eOO-yard
distance. Captain Dunavin
and Private Freiberg are the local
members on the Sixth regiment team.
