Loses | Life in
Fire in Barn

Williston, Nov. 9.-Joseph Halfseth,
young man Of about "a years of age
lost his life while trying to get val
liable stallion out of a burning barn on
the Alfred Swendserd farm "a miles
northwest of the city. The owners
were away at the time and there was
no one around but an elderly lady and
couple Of children. When the fire
was first noticed it was in stacks near
the barn and the lady at the house
noticed Halfseth 60 into the barn.
When the neighbors came it was i'm.
possible to get into the building and it
soon caved in After the fire Half
seth's body was found between the
body of the stallion and the wall. He
had evidently endeavored to get the
animal out and probably was crushed
by the frightened animal and unable
to get out. He was terribly burned,
his arms and legs being burned off.
The deceased was single man and
came to this country from Norway
about three years ago. All his rela-
tives are in the old country. An ad-
ministrator, Ed. Granig, has been ap-
pointed to settle up his affairs.

USES OF PROSPERITY

There is a trend of prosperity all
over the land. The papers are full of
it; and so are the churches, the school
houses, the movies, the automobiles,
the parks, the poolrooms, the clubs
everything is full of the prosperity
that is moving over the land, and
every interest, good or bad, is getting
it's share of it. 1t will not do to say
it is transitory and will last only as
long as the war does, for enterprise
should never be wet-blanketed, and
yet, people should not go so deeply
into debt that they cannot see their
way out in short time. The great
trouble about good times is that they
promote debt and debt has a way of
striking back. '&~-'-
The lesson is that good times should
be used as wise person uses his
health-to make more health; and
this is done coolly, happily, thought
fully.-Ohio State Journal.

Douglas, Ariz, Nov. 9.-Villa's army
is marching eastward from Naco and
Villa Velde toward Aqua Prieta, the
seat of the recent unsuccessful at
tacks on the forces of General Gales,

night from American farmers on the

pass, IL miles southwest of Aqua Prize
ia, and started eastward. Advices
from Naco, Ariz., stated that 1000
Villa troops between there and Anava-
cachi pass late today were engaged
with scouting parties sent from Aqua
Prieta by General Gales. The Car
rama defense of Aqua Prieta went to
the trenches in anticipation of q
neighboring attack by Villa.
General Villa was expected to ar
rive at Nogales, Sonora, tonight. A

"HLlND PIGs' ARE RARITY

Butte, (Mont.) Post: The "blind
pigs" of North Dakota have fled be.
fore the persistent attack of the re.
formers, according to Gilbert G. Hof.
ling, operator at the city Office of the
Oregon Short Line, who has returned
from a two weeks vacation trip to his
old home in Douglas in that state.
~'And," he says, North Dakota never
was so prosperous.
"For hundreds of miles east from
Miles City and beyond the Bad Lands
the eye sees nothing but undulating
plains of grain. Everywhere, grain.
The grain crop has been simply i'm.
mense and consequently the farmers
are very pleased and happy"
Mr. Hofling had the pleasure Of at
tending an old-fashioned Halloween
all-night dance at his old home. They
danced until 4 O'Clock in the morning
and the Halloween season was royalty
honored in the form of a harvest
dance.
Talking about the effect of prohi-
bition, Mr.. Hofing said that in agri-
cultural districts, such as are found
in North Dakota, prohibition has
worked wonders.

Sensation in WASHINGTON

Washington, Nov. 9.-News of the
sinking Of the Ancona caused SEN
sation here tonight as it was regarded
as foreshadoWing a new controversy
between the United States and Aus-
tria similar to the critical dispute with
Germany that followed the torpedoing
of the Lusitania. Before making any
communication, officials awaited intor-
nation on two points-whether the
vessel was torpedoed without warning
and whether any Americans were
among the victims. ... .. .,,....
Should it develop that the Ancona
was given warning and ignored it.
and attempted to escape the rules Of
naval warfare, according to the WASH
ington governments view, justified
the use of force. If she was attacked
without warning and a case parallel
ing the Lusitania develops, the atti-
tude of the United States probably
will be along the line already follow
ed with Germany-the dispatch of a
note demanding disavowal of the act,
reparation and assurances that such
incidents will not occur in the future.
