Litchvine Fears Loss
Of Esdlnable Family

Litchville Bulletin: A deal was clos
ed Wednesday afternoon by which Z.
G.. Pollard disposed of major interest
in his hardware and harness store TN
Gust Spencer, formerly of Christine.
N. D., and lately of Minneapolis. The
new firm is styled as the Pollard
Spencer Hardware Co. Invoice was
taken before the deal was made. Nh.
Pollard still retains his machine bus
mess and the Electric Theatre.
Mr.. Spencer is an experienced hard
ware man, having been in the business
practically all his life. He is married
and has two daughters. He has leased
the st. AIMS parsonage and the fam
lily will be located here in the near fu-
ture. We hope their residence in this
village may be both pleasant and pro-
fittable.
Mr.. Pollard has long been one of
our most prominent citizens, active in
church, school, lodge and civic affairs.
and we are sorry to see him take this
step. The Pollards will remain here
until the end of the year at least, but
we regard their possible removal from
this city as Well-nigh a calamity
Nevertheless, wherever they may 90, a
host of friends here will remember
them and wish them we'll.

Bad Man to Cold
Storage for 40 Days

Minot, Sept. flames Murray, who
was arrested yesterday by the police
on a charge of carrying concealed
weapons, and who announced that he
was bad man with a reputation for
killing and bank robbery, pleaded
guilty before Judge X. E. Leighton, of
the district court, today to a charge
of carrying concealed weapons and
was sentenced to 40 days in the coun-
ty Jail.
This is merely a preliminary step
on the part of the officials towards
sending Murray, who is evidently a
bad character, across the road. The
40 days will give the officials time to
perfect some other charges against
the criminal which will in all probab-
ility give him term in the peniten-
tiary.

Former Business Man
is Visitor at Sanborll

Sanborn Enterprise: The Enter
prise was delighted Wednesday to re-
ceive a call from w. E. Convey, an old
resident and former leading merchant
of Sanborn. 1t was a pleasure to talk
over old times with him. The firm
was Covey & Brown, and they sold
more goods than any firm between
Fargo and Bismarck. Their immense
stock of goods was burned in one of
the disastrous fires of September,
1885, which practically laid the town
in ruins, and Mr.. Covey lost heavily.
His old Sanborn friends will be panied
to learn of the sudden passing of Mrs.
Covey, whose death occurred a short
time ago.

In the intermediate positions Brook

are on fairly even terms.
The prospects of the Cubs seem at
this Juncture to be about the poorest
of any of the lot mentioned, for they
nave been on the down grade for some
time and appear unable to stike a
winning gait. Six straight losses
dropped them to third position.

vantage. The Brooklyns also gave no
signs of wavering and pulled up into
second place by capturing FIVE out of
seven games. The Bostons' record for
the week-only one game lost out OF

an upward one and that they are yet
to be refkoned with in the awarding
of the seasons honors.
Pittsburgh and New York are run

by no means having the poorer pros
