grass. This was the film ver-
sion of "A Bunch of Keys" the

one of the rural scenes the
comedian was to steal a girl 3
hat and hide it behind his
back, and tickle the horse S

during the rioting.
AT Colombo the struggle
was a terrific one, street fight
ing taking place and shops be-

clared. The damage done

meuss OF Grain.

Although the construction
department of the N. P. have
not as yet turned the south
branch oyer TO the operating
department Of the Northern
Pacific, during the week trains
have been running between
Beach ard Ollie. A train
leaves each morning, Sunday
excepted, between the hours
cf seven and eight and returns
each evening. Inasmuch as
considerable work is yet to be
completed in the vicinity OF
Carlyle the construction de.
partment has dot deemed il
feasible to request that the op.
Grating department assume
control of the branch.
Because of the large ship
ments of grain from the diff
erent points along the line i
has been necessary to initiate
the regular service. The diff
erent elevator companies tina
are represented have their rep
resentatives in the respective
towns and those who have no
as yet completed their termi
mails are buying on track an,
consigning their grain to tn
larger terminals in the twi1
cities.

will meet at the Skaar hall for

MAKE PROTEST
AGAINST RATE.

Minot, Sept. 30.-The coal
operators throughout this sec
ton held a meeting and draft
ed resolutions protesting
against the increase of rates on
short hauls recently adopted
by the railroad commission.
Attorney c. c. Wysong will
represent the operators at their
next meeting and endeavor to
secure an adjustment of rates
that will be more in accord
with fair play toward the local
mines. Another matter that
is working a great hardship is
the order of the board rescind-
ing joint rates. This works a
geat hardship to the local pro-
ducers. A single circumstance
will serve to make this matter
clear to the reader. From Bur-
lington to Surrey, distance of
but sixteen miles, the rate is
80 cents per ton, while from
Noonan to Surrey, a distance
of los miles, the rate is but
80 cents. The rate from Bur-
lington to Minot has been
raised from 80 cents to 40
cents per ton.

Famous Photo
Plays Shown
Photo Entertainment at the
Opera House Past Week
Create More Than Usual
Interest.

During the past week Man.
ager Smith of the opera house
has treated his patrons to two
of the most famous photo
plays that have ever been put
on the screen. Both THE
Christian" and The College
Widow attracted large hous-
es. The Christian" received
more favorable comment than
THE Spoilers which was
shown here a short time ago.
The story is an adaptation of
the novel of that name by
Hall Caine. THE College
Widow" is a story taken from
the famous masterpiece of
George AIDE and depicts a real
foot ball game. This was
watched with more than accus
toned interest by the many
patrons of the city who are es-
pecially interested in college
athletics.
In the very near future sew
eral other famous features will
be shown at the opera house.
Among the added attractions
are ABunch Of Keys ,, THE
Texts Steer, The Jugger-
naut" and Satan The pic
ture Satan will be shown
next week.
The opera house manage
ment has found it possible to
secure for a second time THE

dramatization of the famous
novel by Rex Beach and will
be shown in the very near fu-
ture at the local popular play
house.

SIS Per Acre
For G. Y. Land

The sale here this week of
the 258 acre Gilbertson ranch
lat price Of SIS per acre, bare
.of crops, implements, and all
stock, establishes a record
price for this great section of
the state. The best of i'm
proved grain lands have here
-tofore sold in western North
Dakota for a price approx
mating $35 to $50 per acre,
land the sale of the Gilbertson
place at this figure, though
known to be one of the best
ranches in the Golden Valley,
is thought by dealers to pres
age a new and higher stan
.dard of prices for lands here
about. Average sales previ-
.ous to this of improved ranch
es have generally been mada
at prices ranging from $35 to
$50 per acre, records of $50
being the highest sought, and
the SIS sale of this week is re-
:garded as an extraordinary ev-
,ent.
William Andreas, a wealthy
farmer with large holdings at
Frankfort, ILL.,, was the pur-
chaser, paying $l9,450 cash
for the farm. The Gilbertson
ranch was purchased from the
government by Levi Gilbert
son ten years ago and has
been in continuous cultiva-
tion since, yields being gener-
:ally enormous.
For the past six years John
Hollstein has owned the place
and this year reserved the
crops before the sale to An
.'dreas. He has half the place
in barley which will yield 50
bushels to the acre and the
other half in wheat, which
will go Is acres, and at pres
'ent prices will realize nearly
$4,000 for the grain in addi-
ton to the cash for the land.

Entire Nation Has
Been Wiped Out

New York, Sept. 30.-Dr.
M. Symbad Gabriel, president
of the Armenian general pro-
gressive association of the Un-
tied States, received from NIu-
bar Pasha, diplomatic repre-
sentative in Paris of Kathol;-
kos or head of the Armenian
church, advices in regard to
the massacres of Armenians
in Turkey, in which it is stat
ed that christian martyr
dom has at no time assumed
such collosal proportions -
The letters containing the
advices received from Nubar
Pasha, contain an appeal to
the United States to intercede
and stop the prosecutions
Dr.. Gabriel, in making pub
lie the l~..::er, said that from
the information contained in
them and fro mother reports
he had received recently, he es-
.matcd that 4so o,00O Arm en-
ans had been put to de-z;;:.:: @7ad
100000 rendered homeless or
exiled, out of a population of
| 500, 900.
What has occurred in a
few months in Galicia and Ar
menia, wrote Nubar Pasha in
transmitting the correspon-
dence, is unbelievable. The
great massacres of Abul HAM
id seem insignificant compared
to the recent atrocities which
are without precedent in the
history of our nations s martyr
ology. 1t is nothing more nor
less than the annihilation of
the whole people. But Ar
menia is so far away that prac-
tically nothing has been heard
about this frightful tragedy in
Europe and America"

500 MAY CROSS IN
WATFORD VICINITY

Watford, Sept. 30.-Chief
Engineer Huss of the 500 line
has been in Mckenzie county
this week. This in his fourth
visit within the last few weeks.
1t had been expected that the
500 would cross the river from
Sanish and follow the Nilsson
ri river around on the east and
north but it now seems that
the company is looking for a
more direct route and will
probably go some miles south
of the river, penetrating the
middle of the county. MIR.
Huss is making reconnaissance
surveys with this end in view
but says that no cute has been
decided upon yet.

BRONCHO STARTS
THINGS FOR BOSS.

Williston, Sept. 2S.-At-
tackled by a vicious broncho,
W 44ich he was attempting to
break for riding purposes, u.
L. Burdick, former University
Of Minnesota football star,
now a candidate for governor
Of North Dakota, had a nar-
row escape from death at his
ranch on the Missouri river be-
low here.
AT the moment when the
animal seemed to be well in
hand, it reared, ana with both
forefeet struck Burdick on the
shoulders and breast and
knocked him to the ground.
Before any of the helpers
could interfere the maddened
horse reared again and plant
ed his forefeet on Burdick'
body, at the same time making
attempts to bite the prostrate
man. With a wonderful show
of strength Burdick sprang te
his feet, and grasping the
borse by both ears, held him
secure for a moment, ther
with one bound cleared thu
high walls of the corral, tht
horse in hot pursuit.
An examination by a physi
clan disclosed no broken bone
and it is believed Burdick' es
capped without serious injury
although his body bears a doz
en- large bruises.

Of the time, as a result of

vivid conception of the condi-

Some idea, of the civiliza-

ed, according to MIR. Holiday,
from the fact that white slav-
cry in it's most vicious form is
countenanced and practiced by
parents of girls that are sold
ir.to slavery. From $40 tc
$40 is paid for the average girI

oners.

1t will be remembered that
some time ago Lessleyoung
visited this section of the state
and secured notes from farm
ers. each note amounting
to the sum of $l07.50. The
proposed intention was to Or
ganize a company which was
to be called the Farmers Gen
eral Service company. The
proposed plan of the company
was to assist the farmers in
making better purchases in the
east for goods that they need
ed in the operation of their
farms and households. Some
time later the notes were dis.
posed of to F. H. Peterson ol
the Union State bank of Min

later to collect from the farm.

notes. In the last term ol

Lessleyoung in the last in.

he had some similar scheme
to secure money from farmers
in Williston and Williams

Health by the Nature Route" was
the subject of a lecture given to an
appreciative audience of ladies' at the
Baptist church on Friday afternoon
by Mrs. Mae Hamlin Wells.
1t has seldom occurred in our city
that lecture, or discussion of any
subject, has elected more interest and
enthusiasm among women than did
this lecture.
Mrs. Wells spoke with the conf.
dence that comes from Is years of
close study and experience with
natural methods for the relief of
chronic ailments. The speaker de-
clared that many seemingly serious
ills could be prevented and relieved
by the use of air, water, proper diet,
sunlight and remedial exercises.
Food" said she, makes blood and
blood builds the body. The average
person eats too much and eats too
often. The stomach is the most over
worked organ of the body; one should
eat only when hungry and not because
it Is meal time. Everyone can care
for ones own stomach and keep it
ready to do it's work; also the liver,
kidneys and intestines, and hundreds
of surgical operations may be avoid
ed" She urged her audience to give
a little more time and thought to
the requirements of their own bodies,
and thus rob the operating table of
many of its victims, and the world
of it's groaning masses.
A very helpful discussion of foods
was given; suggestions for selecting
them and the time required for their
digestion.
AS Mrs. Wells descended the steps
from the platform she was surround
ed by an eager crowd of women with
numerous questions, each anxious to
catch every word that fell from the
speakers lips.
These good health" advocates are
welcome guests to the city, for GER
tainly no subject could be Of more
interest.
