the boy bandit. THAT is my aim, to

"Righto," agreed Cowler. I'm jolly

There was a heavy thud, and Cowler
lapsed into Inconsistencies. When he
was restored Johnston turned upon
Dunn angrily.

BERNSTEIN IN TOGS,
BUT UNABLE TO PLAY

With the second team off at West
Point playing the second team of the
cadets. the varsity eleven at New York
University had day of comparative
ease yesterday. Dick Eustis had the
team out, but it was chiefly signal and
formation drill.
Captain RUDE Bernstein was out in
toys for the first time since the game
with Union, but his foot bothers him
not little and he walked with de-
cded limp.
Howard Cam was out, and he tried
a few goals from the field at varying
distances. lie has lost none of his
cunning, and the ball spun over the bar
and between the posts every time. Cam
may be sent into the Bucknell game II
a field goal is needed.

Can Of "Swsst" Cream ExpIodss,

Mandan, N. d., Aug. g.
Harold Gilbert was the victim
of very painful accident when
a can of cream exploded, the
cover striking the young man
in the face and breaking his
nose. His face was also badly
lacerated by the cover and
several stitches were taken to
close a cash on his nose.
The cream had been hauled
in from Bixby and had been
on the road for two days and
was in all probability a week
old before it started. The ex-
treme heat and fermentation
formed a large amount of gas
in the can and when the young
man tried to pull the cover of1
it exploded with the above re-
suits. .-Williston Graphic.

Minot, Aug. 7.-About $50 l.
w. WIS who were headed for
Minot were met on the out
skirts of the city today by the
Minot police officials and in
formed that they were not
wanted in Minot. Only about
a dozen men were taken to the

The /. w. WIS were told
that Minot and northwestern
North Dakota were glad to
welcome harvest hands who
came here for the purpose of
working, but that any agitat-
ors who came here with no
idea of working, but merely to
cause trouble and to prevent
other men from working,
would be prosecuted to the
limit of the law.
The city officials have the
matter well in hand, and no
