Quite number Of farmers and
people from other towns have told
The Tribune what they thought of
the roads in the immediate vicinity
of the town. and We are unable to
offer any excuse for their condition.
it seems that the roads in all dir
ections are in fairly good condition
until within a mile or two of Bow
bells and they then start getting
rough. muddy, have deep ruts. and
after heavy rain are almost i'm
passable. The roads out in the
country are being kept up in good
shape. but the highways near tho
city seem to be neglected. Why
can't this be remeoied? 1t would
cost the city very little to fix up
the bad places and smooth down
the rough ones us far as the city
limits. and we know that IL the city
does its share the townships will
be more than glad to do theirs.

JUMPS FROM RIG
AND BREAKS LEG

York, N. D., June 15.-Mrs. Geo.
Cook, residing north of Wolford
five miles, had the misfortune to
break leg below the knee. She
had hitched up a horse to single
buggy for the purpose of going to
town to do some shopping, a thing
often done by her.
The animal was trusty one, and
her husband, being somewhere
about the barn at work. discovered
that his wife had put the wrong
bride on the horse. and removed
the lines from the bit, took the
bride off and started to the stable
to- exchange for the right one.
Mrs. Cook was already in the buggy.
when the horse started to follow its
master to the barn. Fearing that
the horse would start to run, Mrs.
Cook jumped from the buggy.
She is a large. woman weighing
nearly $50 pounds, and the impact
of the jump fractured a bone OF
the leg in two places. At first it
was thought both legs were broken,
but she escaped with but one brok.
en- limb. although the other is bad
ly bruised. She will. no doubt, be
laid up for long time.

VETERINARY SURGEON

Owners of live stock all over this
section of the. county will be more
than glad to learn that a veterinary
surgeon has finally permanently
located here. r. M. Donovan of

of this profession to come to Bow
bells, and was at last rewarded by
getting a man who is licensed to
practice in this state and who is il
every way qualified to look after
what would be required Of him
in Burke county. DR. Harry p.
Welsh, who graduated in 1910 from
the U. S. College of Veterinary. and
who since that time has been prac-
ticing his profession at Washing
ton, D. c.. arrived in the city last

will make his headquarters at the
Donovan Drug Co., where he may
be found most any time. He
him and while he is getting settled
down is making quite number Of
professional calls In the country.
He is spoken of very highly wher>
ever he has so far been employed,
and he has fully proven to our peo-
pie that he understands the bus;-
ness from the bottom up. The
doctor is very pleasant gentleman
to meet, and is great hustler.
He has already won the admiration
of all who have met him, and we
opii1e that he will be- kept more
than busy as soon as it is generally
known that good man can be pro-
cured here. He tells us that he
will always be ready to make calls
at any time of the day or night and
go any distance. He is a married
man with two children, but his
family will not come here until he
is able to rent house and make
other arrangements for them.

Not only did the women in town
vote but the women living in the
countryside comprising the school

spirited, were given q new impetus

action was brought on foreclosure
proceedings on the plant of the
Kenmare News, and in his decision
Judge Leighton rules on every
point against Mr.. Corbett.
The history of the case was re-
viewed in these columns in a re-
cent issue. 1t dates back to June.
1914, when Mr.. Corbett gave a note
and mortgage to the Bank of DON
nybrook on the pplant of the Ken
mare News in the amount of $500
taking for it credit on a previous
note given to Mr.. Gray, president
Of the bank. In making out the
note the word hundred after fifteen
was inadvertently left out of the
body of the note, but written in in
the space used for figures. The
word hundred was later filled in tc
conform with the figures and

Mr.. Corbett attempted to evadc
payment Of the obligation on tn
grounds that the alteration invalid.

"He was perfectly harmless"
says Warden Ta1cott. HE had
never been in any trouble before.
And he has been faithful ever
since he was committed to the pen

Long after he was 80 years old
he unloaded his carload of coal a
day. 1t was easy to see how pleas
ed he was when o'clock would
come and he would have his car Of
coal unloaded while the two tender
feet assigned to the next car by a
deputy would still have half load.
"He has been failing for the last
three months. Old age got the
better of him. But he was faithful
