Chew of Tobacco
Was Nearly y Fatal

Grand Forks, N. D., Feb. Is.
What might easily have been a
fatal accident happened yester-
day to Arthur Donnelly, janitor
of the Washington school.
MIR. Donnelly mad token chew
of the good old Cheese Knife or
some other popular brand.
Everything went we'll until he
accidently swallowed a small
piece of the tobacco.
Then everything went wrong.
The tobacco stuck in his throat
and brought on a severe spell Of
choking, which resulted in tearing
one of the tubes of the throat.
The tear was about three-fourths
of an inch long and about one
fourth of an inch deep. For some
time Mr.. Donnelly was in DANCE,
of strangulation. A hurried call
was sent in for physician and he
readily solved the difficulty.
Mr.. Donnelly is doing well to.
day, but will be confined to his
home for several days as the result
of this experience.

Deering Visited
by Safe Crackers

Deering, N. D.. Feb. 25.-L.
E. Albright's hardware store was
entered and burglarized. The
thieves blew the safe and got
away with about 500 in silver
and currency. besides taking
about FIVE dollars in change from
the cash register, a bunch of pock-
ct knives and 81 calibre revcl-
yer. The safe is a total wreck
and the office desk and book
keepers desk were battered up
considerably from contact with
parts of the safe door, which was
blown off its hinges. Apparently
the job was the work of practiced
yeggmen, and there is no clew a:
to their identity.
/ he stone was ioLNeu and al
doors and windows were found
locked and barred in the morning
as they had been left, and just
how the burglars got into the
store is a matter of conjecture. Al
the school house it was founc
that the basement door had beer
forced and tracks leading to anc
from the building were discover
ed, but were lost in plowec
field a short distance from the
building. 1t is thought that the
yeggs remained in hiding in The
school house basement for {
time and then made their way
out going south. Authorities il
surrounding towns have beer
notified and it is hoped that tn.
thieves will be apprehended il
4 very short time.

eph Stromburg, employed on the
farm of Axel Gumelius near Tow
ner. was accidently killed. when
the team he was driving overturn-
ed a loaded hay rack and crushed
him beneath its weight.
Stromburg and another en-
ploy of Mr.. Gumelius named Ras-
mussen had gone for a load of
hay on the meadow about mile
distant from the farm buildings.
They had loaded the rack and
were preparing to leave. when
Stromberg. who was driving.
called to his companion that one
of the lines had become caught.
Rasmussen replied that he would
unsnap it but Stromberg called
back that he would get down of
the load. 1t is not known just
how he got off. but the horses
swerved around. overturning the
load. The top of the rack caught
the unfortunate man across the
back. He was still breathing
when his companion got him out.
Rasmussen at once went to the
house and he and Mr.. Gumelius
hurried to town with him but life
was extinct when they reached
town.
The young man was little ov-
er twenty-one years of age and
came to work for Mr.. Gumelius
in August. He was in good fin.
ancial circumstances but had not
been in good health and sought
outdoor employment.

Man Near West
hope Kills Self

Westhope. N. D., Feb. 25.-
The community was shocked
when it learned that George Art,
a farm hand on the Thompson
Mcintosh place, had suicided by
shooting himself with a ten guage
shot gun. blowing the top of his
head clear off.
i He had been taking care of the
stock for Mr.. Mcintosh and liv-
ing there alone this winter, while
that gentleman was at his home
in Ontario and for the past three
weeks or SO had not !,een feeling
we'll enough to attene to his du-
ties and neighbors he j been 60
ing to the farm every day to help
him out. MIR. Strait n, neigh
Dor, went to the place and MOTTO
ing the work had not been done
at the barn. did the chores. and
then went to the house to see how
Mr.. Alt was. Not finding him in
the house, he stepped outside,
and stumbled over the body of
the dead man. He called John
Waters and the doctor. and the
body was carried into the house.
The unfortunate man COM
planned of not being able to sleep
and had told the mail carrier that
{ he had had some poison the
night before he would have TAX
en- a dose. The body laid right
in front of a wagon close to the
house. and the man probably
rested the butt of the gun on the
wagon pole, placed the muzzle
against his head, and reached
down and pulled the trigger.
He was a steady, hard work
ing man about thirty, and had
something FIVE hundred dollars in
the bank here. The fact that he
had been sick and not able to eat
much and unable to sleep but lit
tie, must have caused him to
grow despondent, and a rash
moment, decided to end his trou-
bles.

evators from which we get the

MIR. Lotus told of obtaining
pledges from three elevator as
sociations on his recent trip in
North Dakota, that they will ship
all their grain to the Equity.
MIR. Lotus referred to the
charges made by the board of
control of North Dakota that S.
H. Greeley of the Equity had
told them last summer that a
state owned elevator would not
in any way serve to settle the
grain trade abuses.
The assertion of Mr.. Greeley
was distorted" said MIR. LOTUS.
He was asked if the state-owned
elevator built in North Dakota
would correct the abuses in the
grain trade and he replied that il
would not. because there is nc
place in North Dakota recognized
as grain market. This statement
has been distorted to ref~r TO q
state-owned elevator in St. Pau
or any other place."
The defeat of the bill, it IS re.
ported. was due to lack of 6nan.
ces. 1t is said however that the
sentiment favors the collection oI
the l-mill tax as approved b,
The people and to renew the figh,
in the next legislature for a state
owned elevator.

Adulteration of
Oats to beStopped

Seventy-6ve car loads of oats
intended for export have recent
ly been seized by federal author
tiles because they were found to
be adulterated within the mean
ing of the food and drug act. The
adulteration charged is the addi-
ton of feed barley or walter, or
both. Under certain circum-
stances adulteration in these ways
may be So profitable that it is
believed to be at times a COM
mon practice among grain ship
pers. The government, however
is determined that the practice
shall cease at once, and field re-
representatives of the department
have all been instructed to exer-
else the utmost vigilancein direct
ing future shipments adulterated
in this way.
Low-grade barley. which is
known to the trade as feed bar
ley. is sometimes mixed with
oats when there is sufficient differ
ence between the prices of the
two grains to make this profitable.
This feed barley" is the product
which remains after the best
grade of the grain has been sep
arated and removed for mailing
purposes. 1t contains ma
terial percentages of weed seed,
foreign grains, and dust. and the
addition to oats of such a pro-
duct is held to be a violation Of
the food and drug act. The ad-
dition of water to oats arises
from the fact that the grain is
sold by weight. Investigations Of
the department of agriculture
have revealed the fact that water
is sometimes added in the amount
f from 2 to 4 per cent.
In the opinion of the govern
ment officials there is no reason
why either of these practices
ehould be tolerated. Grain ship
ners and dealers. therefore are
being warned that the prevalence
of the custom in the past will not
affect the LEGAL proceedings
against future shipments.

Art for the
High School
Exhibition of Pictures Will be
Held at the High School on
March 9 to 13.

This exhibition of pictures is
one of more than ordinary inter-
est. 1t consists of carbon photo
graphs and engravings, loaned
by the Elson Art Pub. Co., Inc,
Belmont, Mass. The collection is
a large one and contains only the
very best productions of the mas
terpieces of art of different coun-
tries and periods. Nearly every
gallery and country in the world
would have to be visited to see
the original pictures which are
here brought together in one col
lection.
The collection comprises two
hundred subjects representing all
the principal schools of art and in
cluding many reproductions of
sculpture, architecture and i'm
portant views from nature. Few
collections have ever been brot
together which so completely
cover the history of art of all
times as this. An excellent cata-
log has been prepared giving inn
portant facts bearing on the artists
and their masterpieces. The cat
alog will be on sale at the exhibi-
ton hall.
No city or town should be in
different to the culture and re-
hnement of its people. 1t is part
of the school work to inculcate
these qualities in the children thru
whatever means it has at its dis
posal. The wholesome and re6n-
ing influence of pictures of the
right sort on the school walls is
now generally recognized as one
Of the most valuable means of se-
curing this end. The funds for
purchasing such pictures, as we'll
as an opportunity to make sell
ection from a very large number,
is secured by means of the exhib-
ition. The larger the attendance.
the greater the number of pic
lures that can be secured for the
schools
We hope you will not fail to
visit the exhibition, and believe
you will be fully repaid for the
slight trouble and expense in the
pleasure and profit you will gain
for yourself, besides helping on
the work. High School, March

Demonstrating
Farm Will Remain

Bismarck, N. D., Feb. Is
The first bill introduced by the
Lathrop committee to meet de-
feat was the one repeating the
law providing appropriations for
the maintenance of the demon
stration farms in different Sec
tions of the state. 1t failed for
lack of a constitutional major
ity.
A motion to reconsider the
vote by which the demonstration
farm bill was killed carried but
when a second vote on the final
passage of the bill was taken it
again failed of passage. The first
vote was forty-six ayes, thirty
three nays and thirty absent and
not voting. On the second roll
call the vote was forty-6ve ayes,
forty-three nays and twenty
four absent and not voting.
At l2:l5 both houses took re-
cess. senate until ! o'clock and
house until l2:45. Both houses
were in session this morning and
are busy passing bills which have
originated in their branch as this
is the last day bills can be trans
mitted to the other house. The
senate has over 100 bills to con
slider before adjournment can be
taken tonight and the house has
nearly the same number.
