Grinding Rye For Merchants.

H. A. Californian has installed a
flour mill at his farm northeast Of the
city that will grind in the neighbor-
hood of ten or fifteen bushels of wheat,
rye or corn in an hour and do nice
job. He is selling the ground rye to
several Minot merchants at good
price and will soon make enough to
pay for the mill, which cost over a
hundred dollars. The ground rye
makes delicious breakfast food and
considering what Mr.. Californian
raises on his farm he has to buy but
few groceries.
Chas. Maxcy Not Guilty.
Chas. Maxcy, the colored mail car

WOULD LIKE TO SEE
CHAUTAUQUA IN MINOT.

DR.. Carr, manager of the Valley
City Chautauqua, stated to an 1nde-
pendent representative, that he would
be highly pleased to see good live
Chautauqua in Minot. Mr.. Carr does
not see any reason why a good live or
ganization of this kind would not pay
in this city, especially if arrangements
were made for campers. The encamp-
ment for boys and girls, which is be-
coming such a factor in the Valley
City Chautauqua, could be made an
important feature in the proposed Mi
not organization. A good live wire
could make Chautauqua 60 here.

BODY OF MURDERED
WOMAN LAID TO REST
MRS. GERTRUDE HENDRICKSON,
WHO WAS KILLED BY HUS-
BAND IN FARGO, WAS BURIED
AT SURREY TUESDAY.

The body of Mrs. Gertrude Hend-
rickson, who was murdered by her
husband in Fargo, was brot to Minot
Monday and placed in Van Fleets un-
dertaking parlors. The funeral was
held from the German Baptist church
at Surrey Tuesday afternoon and the
remains inferred at Surrey, the old
home of the Price family. A large
number of old friends attended the
last sad rites.
The body was brot here by Geo. T.
Price, brother Of the murdered wo-
man. The two-year-old son has been
legally adopted by the parents of the
unfortunate young woman, Mr.. and
Mrs. Price of this city. Mr.. Price is
employed as furnace man at the Con-
sumers Power Co.
Mr.. Price states that his daughters
life has been one of constant turmoil
since her marriage to Hendrickson,
who altho a machinist and able to
draw salary of $3.50 month, did not
work long at one place because he was
addicted to the use of strong drink.
The Hendricksons seldom lived longer
than from four to six months in one
place.
Mr.. Price, father Of the poor dead
woman, gazed upon the corpse of Clif-
ford Squires, the young man who
committed suicide at the Lexington,
and as he turned away, he was heard
to remark: 81 don't want to appear
wicked, but ! wish l had just been
looking into the face Of the man who
killed my daughter"

Covers were laid for twenty-five and
at the completion Of the repast an en-
joyable program of toasts was rem
dered. F. B. Lambert, president of

Fulton last fall and meeting with
many members of his race. He was
followed by Geo. Dykema, one of the
guests, who stated that he had lived in
Whiteside county for the past fifty
years. He told how the Hollanders

of the state. He said that Hollanders
liked to locate in colonies, where they
could build their own churches. He
said the party was we'll pleased with
the fair and with their talks with
farmers who live here. He spoke Of
the importance Of diversification in
farming.

Frank Henry, state land commits
sioner, informs the Independent that
he will soon arrange a sale of school
lands in Burke Divide and perhaps
several of the other counties of North

Notice of advertisement will appear

CHARGED TO PROPER COUN-

County Commissioners Anderson
and Lokensgard, Auditor Thompson

which the state has against Ward

sided in what used to be old Ward
county, but which since the division a
few years ago, are from the territory
now embraced by Mountrail, Burke
and Renville counties. Through an
error in the state records, this county
has been charged with about $4,000
that should have been charged to the
new counties, and it was to straighten
out the ENHANCEMENT that the officials
made the trip to the Capital City.

FLAXT0N MAN At e: \.
TACkS hADLFY GRAVES
ONE SMITH STRUCK BURLING-
TON COAL MAN IN FACE WITH
CLUB, KNOCKING OUT TEETH
SOME EXCITEMENT IN BUR-
LINGTON.

Considerable excitement prevailed
at Burlington Friday when a man
named Smith, claiming Flaxton as his
home, was suspected of being an i'm
poster of certain secret order. Smith
spent the day at Burlington and no
one seemed to know just what his
business was. It was presumed that
he was of the Watkins order and these
birds are not very popular in many
places in North Dakota. Smith got
into a row in the restaurant and he
was chased hatless and coatless down
the track, but boarded a train which
was just pulling into Burlington and
rode to Minot on the rear coach, un-
able to get inside. Hadley Graves got
on the same train and as he started
to walk up the street in Minot, Smith,
armed with a club, darted out and
struck Graves a terrific blow in the
face, cutting his lip and knocking out
four teeth. Graves, who is power
full man, grabbed Smith, took him to
the city bastile and turned him over
to the authorities. Later he accom-
panied him to Burlington, got his hat
and coat and furnished him railroad
fare to Flaxton. Smith is not likely
to show up in Burlington in the near
future.

Should Raise Governors Salary.

The governor of North Dakota re-
ceives salary of $4,000. Not enough.
1t should be eight or ten thousand dol
lars. Of course the present incumbent
is not occupying the governors chair
for the money there is in it, so he
doesn't care, but just the same the
services of a man good enough to be
governor of a great state like North
Dakota are worth more. Several men
in the state receive larger salaries
than the governors. Still there are
plenty of willing Barkuses who'd be
willing to occupy the exalted position
for less. 4.

Butcher Stock Brings High Price

Butcher Stock Brings High Price.
James Scofeld sold two fat corn
fed Shorthorn cows five years old to
Hannaford & Roach, local butchers,
for $95 each, and Minot people are
enjoying some of the very finest beef
ever sold in the city. The cows weigh
ed nearly 1900 pounds apiece and
dressed to 1645 pounds. Mr.. Scofield
had fed them for two years and they
were as fat as butter. They had been
silage fed during the winter.
Mr.. Scofield raised an immense lot
of corn on his big farm south of the
city and put up $50 tons of silage.
He is feeding 200 steers this winter
on silage, ground barley, hay and
barley straw, and when he ships them
in March, he expects to top the mar
ket. Several stockmen who have seen
them say they are doing fine.

At N|D-W|NTfR FAIR
FIVE VERY PROSPEROUS FARM
ERS FROM WHITESIDE COUN-

WEEK-WELL PLEASED WITH
NORTH DAKOTA.

Five prominent Holland farmers
from Fulton, Whiteside county, ILL.,,
are attending the Mid-winter fair.
They are R. H. Pagan, F. P. Utz, Gay
Sikkema, Louis Jaarsma and George
Dykema, and they were induced to
come here at this time by Secretary
D. S. Hollenga, of the Minot Associa-
ton of Commerce, who is himself a
native of Holland.
The visit of these men to North Da-
kota at this time is of utmost import
ance. They are representative men
Of Holland settlement, the farmers
Of which have become immensely
wealthy. They will return to Fulton
with story of North Dakota that
cannot help but prove pleasing to
many who have already turned their
eyes toward North Dakota. They
are all we'll pleased with the fine ex-
hibits at the Mid-winter fair. They
have been taken on auto rides about
the country, visiting the Riverside
Dairy farm, the Elmwood farm, John
Ehr's place and the big Scofield farm.
They have talked with hundreds of
satisfied, successful farmers at the
fair and learned facts of North Da-
kota from every angle.
L. S. Kinney, Of Foxholm, who is
attending the fair, was surprised to
learn that these men are here and re-
garding them he says: ,.,
5g I know two of them very well as
they now reside on my old homestead
near Fulton. The Hollanders are a
fine class of farmers and we want to
use care in telling them the true facts
of North Dakota. The true story of

Hirsute Appendices Not Popular.

The day of hirsute appendages has
passed. While a few men still adorn
their handsome faces with generous
patches of spinach, most of US try to
look young and wear neither boards
nor mustaches. We had the pleasure
of seeing picture of the North Da-
kota members of the house of repre-
sentatives, for the year 1885, and out
of tifty-one, there were but three who
were smooth shaved. In another pic
ture of that body taken in 1889, out of
Sd, only one was without both beard

the Independent that the railroad

but obey orders. Petitions are being
prepared in Minot, we understand,
that will be forwarded to the railway
commissioners, asking that this
change be made at once.
