William Drier, a pioneer resident
of the Milton and Osnabrock vicinity,
died at the home of his sister, Mrs.
Ben Keracher, seven miles north of
Osnabrock last Wednesday afternoon
Mr.. Drier came to this locality seve-
raj years ago and secured a position
with c. w. Plain. His wife died a
few years ago, leaving to his care
little daughter, Tottie, who is now IA
years of age. For the past two or
three years Mr.. Drier has been failing
in health and has been confined to his
bed most of the time. During this
time he has made his home with his
sister, and brother in law, and his
demise is sincerely mourned by many.

SHERIFF KELLAND HOST OF
BOARDERS FROM HANNAH
Three Russians from Manitoba and Transient
from Hannah Hotel Land In Jail

Leonard Miller, transient, was
brought down from Hannah on Satur-
day by the authorities to serve a SEN
tence in the county Jail for jumping
board bill at the Hannah hotel 1t
was last fall when he jumped the
board bill at Landlord A. A. Scott's
hostelry. Thursday of last week
Miller again drifted into town. He
had the nerve to again make his way
to the Hannah hotel, expecting that
Mr.. Scott, the proprietor, would not
remember his phiz. But the heavy
weight landlord quickly recognized the
face that he had filled last fall and
the recollection was still fresh in his
mind of the coin that had not been
forthcoming at the time that his guest
made hasty exit from the end town.
Miller found a temporary lodging
place in the town Jail and after a
justice court preliminary was brought
to Langdon to try the bill of fare at
Sheriff Kelland's hostelry.
Three Russians who had managed
to make their escape from the alien
detention camp at Brandon, Man.
and successfully made their get away
to this side of the line were rounded
up Saturday by the United States
immigration officer from Hannah and
placed in the county Jail here pending
being transported across the line into
Manitoba, where they will be kept
under strict military surveillance until

BAD MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT
ON FAIR GROUND MONDAY
Ole PetersOn's Machine Goes AmuCk On Race
Track Rider Badly Hurt

Ole Peterson, young man whose
home is at Wang, lies in the Langdon
hospital suffering from bad fracture
of his collar bone and other severe
injuries, the result of an accident of
which he was the victim and in which
he came near losing his life on Mon
day afternoon at the fair grounds.
Peterson, who has a motorcycle and
came to town early in the afternoon
rode his machine out to the fair
grounds. He was speeding around
the race track when the accident hap
pened just as he neared the grand
stand. Those who witnessed the
mixup when his wheel crashed into
the fence say that Petelson's motor
cycle after negotiating the turn at the
east end of the track, and he was COM
ing down the home stretch had attain
ed speed of from fifty to sixty miles
an hour, and that he had it under
splendid control until he struck a
place in close to the fence where the
dirt is loose. This caused the hind
wheel of his motorcycle to skid, when
it crashed into the fence, the machine
and its rider being piled up in hope

hurried to the hospital in an automo-
bile, where his injuries were found to

CAVALIER COUNTY CENSUS
FIGURES SHOWS INCREASE
Complete Returns From All Parts
of Cavalier County Show Gain
Over Five Years Ago

The census figures of Cavalier
county as gathered this spring by the
townships, villages and towns at the
time of the taking of the assessment
show gain in population in the past
five years, the total reached in the
enumeration just completed being
Is, III as against Is, $50 in 1910.
The gain is but 1l2, but this when
consideration Of the inroads which the
movement of the young people of this
county to Montana, the Canadian
northwest and points on the Pacific
coast, is one on which we think there
is reason for self congratulation and
an even greater gain may be looked
for five years hence when the next
national census is taken. None of the
towns can be said to show an appre-
ciable gain when figures which appear
below are given careful analysis
and the gains in the rural districts
come from those section of the county
which have more recently opened
for settlement. There appears to be
two exceptions to this rule however,
one is Dresden township which in its
gain from 572 five years ago to 676
this spring, leads in growth over any
of the townships of the county. Di-
rectly opposite is the condition in
Seivert township, in the extreme
southwestern corner of the county
which five years ago had population
of 800 and now shows as its total
only 2O7 In Waterloo the strange
coincidence is found of the figures of
the census of this year being a tie
with the figures of 1910 The civil
township O. six miles square with the
largest population within its area is
Mt. Carmel, with SOB, this is of
colIse by the leaving out of Linden
with go, which includes the town of
Hannah. The township of Olga with
its lead of $50 of course is to the
front of all but consideration must be
| given to the extent of its area which
, is double that of any other township
.. il the county. The census figures fol
1915 are given greater interest by
the comparisons presented below Civ.
ing the enumerations taken in 1910
and also fifteen years ago in 1900. Ir
presenting these figures we believe
tina. it is safe to predict that both the
urban and rural population of Cavalier
county will show an appreciable gain
when the next national census is taker
in 1920.

in Iona the day before; within

IN Iona the day before; within a
week previous he had purchased a
new automobile here in Langdon of
j. f. Ramage.' Both the widow of
the deceased and his neighbors testify
that his manner had been quite natu-
raj and not Respondent or brooding
while the home life gave nothing to
show cause for the rash act. Investi-
cation following Walters death how
ever, disclosed the fact that here in
Langdon three weeks ago he had made
his will and provided for the taking
care of the farm for his widow after
he was gone. He also left letter
dated two days before he killed him
self asking forgiveneness from his
wife and telling her that it would be
better for her after he was gone.
Another letter was addressed to a
nephew who was urged to take up the
working of the farm for the widow.
Walters left his business affairs in
good shape. Besides the home and
land there is $4,000 insurance, while
the crop promises to fully recompense
the loss sustained through that section
of the county last year by hail. Wal
ters was a man Of about fifty years
old, enjoying average health. 1t is
fifteen years since he married Mrs.
Walters and the only cloud that SEEM
ed to mar their domestic happiness
was the fact that the couple were
childless. That he brooded over this
at times was evident.
The telephone message to Langdon
authorities was responded to by States
Attorney Crimson, Sheriff Kelland,
DR.. Mcqueen accompanying them in
the absence of the county coroner, DR..
Stromberg and though there was no
question as to the way in which the
deceased came to his death the formal
ity of an inquest was held with
William Cheatley, Henry Cheatley and
Murray Archer as jurors and A. D.
McNab of this city acting in the
capacity Of coroner. The findings of
the coroner's jury was that the death
of Walters was due to suicide.
The funeral was held at Iona Mon
day forenoon in addition to the SER
vices, which were largely attended.
The Modern Woodmen order took
charge of the grave service. Two of
the brothers Of the deceased who re-
sponded to the call of his death were
not apprised as to the cause of his
death until reaching Iona on the day
of the funeral, when the news they
received came as severe shock.

MAN ENDS HIS LIFE
BY AID OF SHOT GUN
Tragic Death Saturday of Farmer
Residing Near Iona His Rash
Act Unexpected
LEFT A NOTE FOR WIFE
Frank D. Walter Plans and Carries Out
His Insane Purpose to Commit Suicide
With Almost Maddening Fore Thought
By Willing Property to His Widow and
Carefully Arranging His Home Affairs

A tragic and untimely event occur
red Saturday morning at about seven
O'Clock when Frank D. Walters, a
we'll known farmer in the vicinity of
Iona fired the charge from shot gun
with his own hand which ended his
life. The charge from the gun which
the unfortunate man fired with the
aid of a long stick, into the end of
which he had driven nail, entered
his left breast below the heart killing
him instantly. The Walters farm is
located about ten miles southwest of
Langdon and the news of the sad hap
pening was sent in over the telephone
from the adjoining farm of VIM.
Cheatley, half mile distant, who
1 heard the report of the gun and was
zone of the first on the scene.
1t seems that Walters and his wife
had arisen Saturday morning as usual
at about five o'clock They had
breakfasted and following the meal he
had run the cream separator for his
wife, afterwards going out to do the
chores while his wife was feeding the
milk from the separator to the calves.
1t was while Mrs. Walters was so en-
gagged that she heard the shot of the
gun and having decided on the direc-
tion from which it came found the
dead body of her husband lying behind
the hen house, between the granary
and the roadway. An examination
made after the arrival of Mr.. Cheat
ley showed that the clothing was
burned and the body marked with
powder around the wound where the
muzzle had been pressed against his
chest when with stick he pushed the
trigger that sent the bullet speeding
which ended his life. Nothing in the
man g. behavior either just before he
committed the rash act or previous
had intimated that the idea Of suicide
had entered his mind. He had been

HANNAH TENNIS PLAYERS
EASILY WIN TOURNAMENT
End Town Easily Captured Honors
In Both Singles and Doubles at
Tournament Friday

The Hannah party of tennis players
who came down from the end town
last Friday to take part in tourna-
ment of singles and doubles with
players of the Langdon tennis club
was composed of the following; F.
Treleaven, E. Treleaven, c. Treleav-
en-, Russell Balfour and Russell Boyd.
Their Langdon opponents were C. S.
Robertson, H. E. Price, R.O. Miller.
Dick Boyd, E. E. Fletcher, John Nc
Gruer and F. J. Hibbard, the latter
substituting for McGruer in the dou.
bles. The series of singles and dou-
bles extended through the afternoon
and evening and the courts of the
home club north of the city school was
given the attendance of quite large
number of spectators. The visitors in
addition to capturing the larger end of
the score in both the double and single
events were rendered the hospitality
of the club members here in manner
which made their stay at the county
seat pleasant one in every way.
About the middle of the coming month
it is planned for the Langdon tennis
players to invade the end town, when
a return set of games will be played,
and in the meantime there is pretty
sure to be some strenuous practice

WINNERS OF TROPHY CUPS
IN FARM CONTEST AT FAIR
Alf Padden Second Time Winner
of Sweepstake Honors Three
Others Are Repeaters

The judging of the entries of the
farm contest in connection with the
county fair which took up four days
of travel over the county last week in
visiting the eleven farms entered in
the contest ended last Friday. The
footing up of the score cards located
the trophy cups awarded in the five
commissioner districts and the sweep
stake trophy cup with the following
who were found to have scored the
highest number Of points according to
the conditions laid down in thecontest: ::
First District-Emile Hanggi, of
Clyde.
Second Distrct-August Korb, of
Gallo
Third District-A. K. johnson, of
Osnabrock.
Fourth District-Robert Murie, of
Harvey.
Fifth District William N. Wright
of Fremont.
Sweepstake Trophy-Alf Padden,
of Manila.
The farms of Messrs Padden, Murie,
Wright and Korb have now been win
ners in the farm contest of the county
for the past two years, or since this
feature of the fair was first started.
AS the judging was done by party
who is neither resident of the county
or state the decision comes with a
disinterested fairness that would
otherwise be practically an impossi-
bility. Photographs OF the winning
farms in the contest are proving to be
one of the big attractions at the fair,
where the trophy cups are also on
exhibition.

A Bottineau county, North Dakota,
farmer is making money on ground
squirrels. He poisoned those on his
400 acre farm according to the North
Dakota experiment station formula,
which required 3 ounces of strychnine
at 80 cents an ounce, 10 cents worth
of saccharine and starch and about
two bushels of oats or a total cost of
SD. so for materials, which it took
three days to distribute. When
through poisoning, his boys picked up
one thousand squirrels and saved the
tails, which brought bounty of 2
cents piece or twenty dollar return
on a three and half dollar outlay for
materials.
