mine. Local fuel dealers still have a
limited supply of soft coal, but have
been unable to supply any hard coal
for v e two weeks. Several carloads
have been enroute from the docks
since about the Goth of January, but
owing to the fact that freights have
been running very slowly these cars
have not been forthcoming.

The engine on our branch train is
not the only one that tires of bucking
the snow and leaves the rails for a
trip cross country. The engine on
the Cando branch did the same thing
one day last week-not only the en-
CINE but part of the train as we'll.
They had a snow pillow on in front but
at the point of derailment there was
no snow, so it is supposed that the
plow-point caught in something and
throwing the train from the rails. 1t
was necessary to get the wrecker to
clear the line.

The southbound passenger did not
get out of Edmore last Thursday I'M
til 6 o'clock that same evening, being

The farmers who have driven into
town during the past cold snap have,
as a rule, been pretty good about the
care of their horses by blanketing
them while they have been left stand
ing out in the cold. There have been
exceptions. There have been cases
noted where the animals have been
left out in the frigid weather without
any covering whatever. This is in
human and the persons guilty of the
neglect should watch that they are
not called upon to answer the charge
in court. There is a law fitting such
cases of abuse very nicely.

YOUNG GIRL
VICTIM Of
FOUL PLAY
Body Of Unidentified Girl Found; !;
Skull Fractured by Blunt
Instrument.
ST. PAUL POLICE SAY
THEY HAVE A CLUE
Man Called Officials And Told
Them Where to Find the
~ Body

St. Paul, Sept. 2.--While the body
of an unidentified young woman lay
in the Ramsey county morgue today,
St. Paul police sought information
which would lead them to the man
who notified them last night that the
girl, seriously injured, could be found
in the Mechanic Arch high school
grounds here.
The authorities believe that with
this man rests the solution of the
case. The young woman, who was
about % years old, was found at 10
o'clock last night on the school
ground, her skull fractured by blows
from a blunt instrument. She died
today.
Loredde Engler, of Ipswich, S. D.,
the young woman who mysteriously
disappeared from the st. Paul depot
while waiting for a check from her
father, had not been located definite
ly today, but they said they had un-
derstood she left for Des Mones. 1t
was first thought the injured girl
might be Miss Engler: but friends of
Miss Engler, TAo aa. rhs &.go.nan last
night in the hospital said she was not

ANOTHER ZEPPELIN
RAID OVER LONDON
Political Situation in Greece Ser.
icus; No Announcement Of
the Outcome

London, Sept. 2.-In the first hard
battle between Roumanian and Aus
trian troops the Austrians have been
forced to retire against the Cerna
river, north of Orsova, near the Iron
Gate on the Danube. Vienna an
nounces that the Austrian troops
withdrew after five days of heavy
fighting.
In eastern Pennsylvania the Aus
trian retirement continues.
London announces another Zeppe-
lin raid over the east coast of Eng
land Saturday night. Few details
have been received, but bombs we're
dropped at many places.
The Entente ministers at Athens,
says a belated dispatch from the
Greek capital, have drafted note for
presentation to Premier Zaimis. The
note probably was handed to the
Greek premier on Saturday. The
tenor of it's contents is not known.
The arrival of an allied fleet over
Piraeus, the port OF Athens, has been
followed by the announcement that
the flag of France has been h0isted
on four German and three Austrian
merchant ships in the harbor. Board
ing parties from the Entente Warships
seized the vessels.
Situation in Greece Serious.
Although reports are that the polit-
ical situation in Greece is growing
more serious, no announcement Of
conditions has come either from the
Greek government or the Entente
capitals. The revolt reported in Mac
edonia is now said to have spread
over the whole of northern Greece.
Dispatches 1om Athens say that
Premier Zaimis had lengthy audi
ence with King Constantine Thurs.
day and afterward announced Greece
her policy Of friendly neu.
trality toward the Ententes while
awaiting events. The Greek premier,
another dispatch says, told com.
mittee appointed at a pro-Entente
mass meeting in Athens, that the
questions over which they were con-
cerned would be cleared up probably
before Saturday morning.
Russian Offensive Continues.
The new Russian offensive in Cali
cia and Bukowina continues success
fully, Petrograd says, the Russians
having taken positions 40 miles east
of Lemberg. Near the Hungarian
frontier, several heights have been
captured.
Attacks by the Russians against
the Austro-German lines in Volhynia,
Galicia and the Carpathians were re-
pulsed, Berlin says. Some ground
was gained north of Thorow, Galicia
and nearly 1900 prisoners have been
taken by the armies of Prince Leo
pold and Archduke Charles.
Announcement of operations on
other fronts in Europe show little
marked activity.

WHEAT JUMPS DUE
TO STRIKE ASPECT
Market Considerable Stronger
Result of Settlement of
Threatened Walk.out

Chicago, Sept 2.-Confidence that
a settlemnt of the railway strike
would be effected lead to a decided
upturn today in the price of wheat.
The close was strong at the highest
level Of the season, a net advance of
two and seven-eights to four and one
fourth cents. With December at
$1.47A to $1.4S and May at $1.49A to
$149B. Other leading staples, too,
all showed gains-corn one-fourth
cent to seven-eights cent; oats three
fourths cent to one and one-eighth
cent, and provisions fifteen cents to
fifty cents.
Disappearance of anxiety over the
chance that the eight-hour bill might
be defeated was evident from the out
set in the wheat market All pres
sure to sell was absent, and instead
signs developed that foreign demand
had again become urgent.
Corn, like wheat, showed broad,
general demand. Oats displayed in
dependent strength, owing to an
nouncement that the British govern
ment had taken 100000 bushels here
for shipment.

a motor ambulance would be of the
greatest value to u.s. said Captain

kota, discussing today North Dakota s
campaign to raise funds for the pur-
chase of an auto ambulance. '"The
mules drawing a field ambulance can
just about carry water enough for
their own use, which leaves the am
bulance crippled when it is needed
to carry the sick or wounded. | am
greatly desirous Of seeing a motor
ambulance unloaded at the Mercedes
station some afternoon soon.
1T will be of great immediate SER
vice. Our field hospital is good

swift trip may at any time save a
mans life. We have had couple Of

but heat exhaustion. think every

if he knew an auto ambulance was
trailing with us on every long hike"

Hikes of from 20 to 80 miles are
planned for North Dakota within the
next 80 days. They will be made in
heavy marching order and the SOL
diers will carry with them everything
they would need if they marched to
