AGAIN PROVED H0WLlNG SUCCESS

Next came the event of the evening.
John Maresh, the old Indian fighter.
made his appearance with his band Of
Northern Sheyenne indians. They
were in war attire and exhibited the
spirit Of the trail. The tom-tom
sounded the signal for advance, the
tomahawks and bowie knives were
branished above the heads of their
imaginary victims. The bullet proof
magic was thrown about his warriors
by the Medicine Man and after the
drink of fire water the dance was on
in earnest, round and round they went,
the ki-yi and hoo-hoo Increased un-
til pandimonium reigned, the beads of
Precipitation could be seen on the
brows of many of the old settlers as
the dance brought wildly to their
minds the fears and dangers Of pio-
neer days. Accompanying the band of
Sheyenne's was a papoose, recently
from White Earth, his dancing and
capers won the admiration and wonder
Of the gathering and with the big Medi-
cine Man shared the honors of the
evening.
The war dance was followed by a
tenor solo rendered by J. E. Buttree
after which the old time dances were
INDUCED in until the wee sma hours
of the morning. The tired dancers
vending their way homeward pro-
nouncing the old settlers meeting the
greatest event Of the year.

AN UNKNOWN R0BBER
IN VALLEY CITY
FRIDAY, NOVEMBER II, 1914.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER IA, 1914.
About half past three o'clock this
morning an unknown person entered
the homes of VIM. DuVall. 1918 Eighth
Ave. and Prof. M. C. James Of 1925
Eighth Ave. and before the occupants
of either house could be aroused the
party had gotten away with gold
watch of Prof. James and about eighty
cents from Mr.. DuVall. AS yet no
trace of the robber has been found.
Shorty" DuVall missed his pants this
morning and when he finally located
them they were back of the house
where the BURGLAR large man had
evidently attempted to put them on,
but finding they were to small had left
them to seek the owner of a larger
pair. Mr.. DuVall stated that on the
sideboard where the man was search
ing was concealed several dollars in
change and that whoever he was he
must have been a "mut55 to have miss
ed it, and that the next time burglar
steals his pants he either wants him
to take them along or else bring them
back, for leaving fellows pants out
in the rain in November is conducive
to bad colds.

Welded At 72 YEARS,
But SHE'S HAPPY

Grand Forks, N. D., Nov. 13.-Miss
Margaret ]. Evans, aged u, the bride
of Prof. George Huntington, 70 years
prominent Minnesota educator, Is
known to a large number of Grand
Forks people, having visited here sew
eral times as the guest of Mrs. Frank
Griffin, she and Mrs. Griffin having
been friends for a number Of years.
Back Of their friendship is the
friendship of Mrs. Griff1n's mother
and the silvery haired bride, whom,
Minneapolis dispatches say, is on her
way to Honolulu on her honeymoon.
Minneapolis dispatches tell of the
marriage as follows:
Married, happy, going to Homo
lulu
, In this fve-word message wired to
Minneapolis today, there is condensed
a romance that might fill many COL
umns. For the message was written
by Miss Margaret J. Evans, u years
old, and one of the best known wo-
men of Minnesota, and referred to her
marriage at Seattle, Wash, to Pro-
fessor George Huntington, 70 years Of
age, noted Minnesota educator. And
now the 72-year-old bride and the
79-year-old bridegroom are about to
sail for Honolulu for honeymoon in
the land where palm trees wave in
the soft Pacific breezes and where TO-
nance is in the very atmosphere.
There is perhaps no better known
Minnesota woman than the silver
haired bride. She has been president
of the Minnesota Federation of Wo-
mems clubs, chairman of the Mime
sofa state public library commission,
president of the Minnesota Congrega-
tional women's board of foreign mis-
sions.
There are few Minnesota educators
better known than the venerable
bridegroom. He is the author Of
novels, books of history and criticism
and a contributor to leading maya
zines.
For thirty-four successive years,
from 1874 to 1908, Margaret Evans
was professor of English literature
and dean of women at Carleton Col
lege, Northfeld.
George Huntington was professor of
rhetoric and logic at Carleton college
in 1863.

London, Nov. 1.-THE coming of
winter has partly paralyzed the move
ment Of troops both in the East and
West.
The Russians on the border of East
Prussia are reported to be marching
through snow; billiards have swept
the trenches in Belgium and notnern
France, and brought great suffering to
the wounded, as we'll as to the men
in the fields. A large area in West
Flanders, around Dlxmude has been
flooded by the heavy rains, and is i'm
passible for fighting.
French and German reports are con-
Trajectory regarding the progress of
thei rarmies in the west. Berlin
says there has been only slight acr;v-
ity because of the snow storm. Paris
announces that the Germans, in at
tempting to cross the canal near Dix
nude were thrust back, while the al
lies ercaptured several strategic points
repulsed two German attacks south
east Of Ypres, and "entirely Destroyer
German regiment south of Bixschote.
An observer with the British army
in furnishing newspaper reports from
the front announces that German at
!, tempts to batter a wedge through tho
allies lines have decreased greatly in
force during the last few days, bear
ing no resemblance to the attacks by
the great force against Ypres near the
end Of October. The writer pays
high tribute to the bravery of the I'M
trained German youths and middle
aged men, who, he says, do not hest
tate to march against trained British
troops.

Brockey farm. a miles southwest OF

The SALVATION ARMY
OLD LINEN" CAMPAIGN

COMMANDER Eva BOOM Is nothing II
she is not practical. She has deter
mined that The Salvation Army in the
United States shall have their part in
the alleviating of the sufferings of the
wounded in both the German camp
and that Of the Allies. The Salvation
Army is in a peculiar sense interested
because they have literally thousands
of their own members on the firing
line as soldiers in the various armies,
or in Red Cross and Relief work,
while some are Military Chaplains.
The awful conditions prevailing in
Europe and the terrible dearth Of all
kinds of hospital supplies, especially
bandages, pads and linen generally.
has led Miss Booth to inaugurate In
every leading city in America an "Old
Linen Campaign" Already she has re-
ceived splendid responses in New
York and now she appeals to the
country to aid her. The need is so
enormous and urgent that it is hoped
that not only the Salvationists them
selves but the ladies' clubs, fraternal
societies, schools, churches, and in
fact everybody will undertake to do
something. One cannot think without
horror of the thousands wounded in
even one of these campaigns In our
own Civil war our northern ladies and
those splendid Southern matrons and
their daughters, took their very best
linen and worked almost day and night
in making bandages, and why not all
ioin the Salvation Army in this effort,
and do it without delay. One writer
states, "Promptness is the greatest
Kindness"
In nearly every home there is old
linen 49, sheets, pillow cases, table
cloths, napkins, towels, handkerchiefs
and other things that might be made

who could collect materials and send

Boston Block, Minneapolis, MINI. All
material must be thoroughly washed,
and boiled without starch or blueing,
and should be sent post paid. Where
ever groups Of contributors can and
so desire the bandages may be made
up locally. Mrs. Colonel Stephen Mar
shall and Mrs. Major c. R. Boyd, Of
Minneapolis, Mimi, who will repre-
sent the Commander in North and
South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin
and Northern Michigan, will gladly
give directions to any who can assist
with the sewing.

s'MoRE THIRD WARD.

Alderman Holland states that the
announcement made the day of cleo
ton in the Third Ward was to the ef-
feet that the vote was Ill against the
ladies and lis for and that the returns
showed that vote ana that the an
nouncement' that the ladies had failed
to carry the Third Ward was wrong.
Now this explanation ought to satisfy
everyone, the ladies who claim unfair
treatment, the judges and last the
newspapers who fumbled the early re-
turns 1t might also be here suggested
that women, who aspire to enter poll
tics, might with profit learn to curb
their angry passion until the official re-
cord has been searched and rumors
verified.

thing of pioner life in that section of
the then Dakota territory.
The afternoon meeting was con-
cluded by voting on the time and place
of the midsummer meeting for the

qua grounds during the session of the
ChautauQua was carried. At the con-
clusion of the afternoon meeting the

Platou, he assured the Old Settlers Of
the city's appreciation of their many
efforts and gave them credit for
bringing Valley City up from that Of
