Hinnaland Brothers
Buy Allmann Farm

The real estate business seems
to be picking up in the neighbor-
hood of Circle. Last Saturday
another farm was sold. This time
it was the splendid farm belonging
to George F. Allmann, 81 miles
down Redwater, which was pur-
chased by Nils and Daniel Hinna-
land of Soda creek.
The now Hinnaland farm is an
ideal one, and is one of the best
in this neighborhood. Has an
abundance of water, being located
on the Redwater, has a splendid
grove of fruit and shade trees
started and the whole half section
is tillable
Although he has sold the farm
Mr.. Allmann has no intentions of
leaving the Redwater Valley, but
will remain right on the farm,
having leased same and will con-
tinue farming.

Peter Larson Married
At GIendiVe

Peter Larson, one of the most
prominent and well known ranch
ers over in the Prairie Elk country
sprung surprise on his friends
last week when he slipped away
to Glendive and got married.
The bride is Miss Pauline Halls
who arrived here last summer
from Washington for supposed to
be visit with Aam's, (Mr. Lar
sons partner in the sheep busi-
ness) and Mr.. Larson, but it now
looks as if it was for more than
merely visit.
The Banner extends congratu-
lations and wishes Mr.. and Mrs.

Some Glass to
New Postoffice

Say isn't there some class to oul
new postoffice though?
Indeed there is, but just wait,
Mac isn't through yet. He is GO
ing to have some brand new lock
boxes installed pretty soon and
then it will be still better.
Mr.. McClatchie has certainly
spared no pains, nor money in
getting the new office fixed up, but
he now has an office which is a
credit to the town. 1t also makes
IT a lot more convenient for the
McClatchies to handle the mail now
than before, having more room and
a better system.
The new office is highly appreci-
ated by all Circle patrons.

Assault IN First
Degree Is Charge

i CHARGED with assault in the first
degree on the person Of Charles
| Martin, a stockman of the Prairie
Elk country, T. j. Norvill was ar
rested the fist of this week,
brought to Glendive and released
under 475O bond, pending his
trial which will be held at the
next term of court. The victim
of the shooting was taken to the
hospital at Glasgow, and just
what his present condition is, is
not known here. However, it is
understood that his injuries,
though serious, were not fatal.
According to the report of the
affair, given The Review by a
brother of Martin, the difficulty
which terminated in the shooting
was over some cattle belonging to
Martin, and which are said to have
gotten into field belonging to
Norvill.
1t was on last Friday morning
about 10 o'clock that Martin went |
to get the cattle, and had some
sort Of conversation with Norvill. |
1t is understood that the two
quarreled.
1t is also said that later Martin
got on his horse and began round
ing up the cattle, and that as he
did so Norvill went into his house
and secured a 30-30 rifle, and that
as Martin came past the place,
Noryill fired at him. The first
shot struck Martin in the left leg
below the knee and a second hit
him in the left upper arm, passing
into his side.
Frightened at the shooting, the
horse which Martin was riding,
threw him, and George Moore,
who is reported to have been
nearby, and who is also said to
nave seen Norvill get the rifle,
vent to Martins assistance and I
ook him to the hospital. 4

Hotel Gladstone
Nearing Completion

The large crew Of men at work
on Circles fine new hotel, the
Hotel Gla dstonc, are certainly
making rapid progress in getting
the building ready for business.
The building is now nearly COM
pleted with the exception of the
finishing work on the inside. The
outside has been sided up and
painted. the interior has all been
nicely plastered and this week the
plate glass front has been put in,
and when all the wood work on
the inside has been finished, we
dare say it will be the finest hotel
in the Redwater Valley. One that
would be a credit to a town much
larger than Circle.
The building we understand when
completed and furnished will cost
IN the neighborhood OF SO 600.
The hotel and bar will be in
charge Of Mr.. ]. ]. O'Keife of Glen
dive, assisted by Ole Ormo of this
place. The refreshment parlor will
likely be opened for business next
week, the fixtures having already
arrived and the hotel part will open
for business long about Thanksgiv-
ing.

Berlin, March 20.-Something of a

Captain of Copenick' has resulted in
a sentence to ten years imprisonment
for DIR. Edward Alexander" for use Of

With no attempt to deny that the
whole affair was humiliating, the

aroused at finding that it was posi-
Bile for anyone in Prussia to attain
public Office without absolute proofs
of his identity. Incidentally he de-
clared steps must be taken to make 1t
impossible in the future. In common
with many others he had believed
the Copenick case had forever put a
stop to such deception.
Thormann as a boy got into trouble
and thereby forfeited his right to COM
pete in the public schools for the one
year service in the army which is open
to those educationally qualified. He
forged himself a certificate. For this
he was sentenced to pay fine of 1000
