The hair on the heads Of a number
of people Of Fargo and Moorhead have
been made to take more perpendlcu-
lar angle when they have beheld chll-
dren, many OF them very young,
walking and sliding on the young ice
along the edges of the Red river.
The last few days of cold weather
had put a thin coating Of ice along
the banks, which in places extends out
fifteen to twenty feet and the children
are using these sliding" places to
play on. This ice is very thin and
there is deep open water in the center
OF the stream making the practice
a most hazardous one.

Mr. Rater went into details regard
ing accounts with corresponding
banks, showing. according to his find
ings. that the credits with other
banks, and those claimed by the books
of the First National bank of Cassel-
ton. were at variance. He also testified
that various statements OF condition
issued by the bank were incorrect,
according to the books.
In one instance. Mr.. Rater testified,
the bank statement declared nearly
$4,000 less due from other banks than
was actually due. This was in August,

Last on the stand for the govern
ment during the afternoon session was
