FAMOUS MATHEMATICIAN
SENDS CONGRATULATIONS

Superintendent P. S. Berg is in
receipt of the following letter from
David Eugene Smith, who is gener-
ally conceded to be the highest au-
thority on the teaching of arithmetic
in the United States:
Teachers College,
Columbia University,
New York, June 2, 1916.
The Superintendent of City Schools,
Dickinson, North Dakota.
Dear Sir:
l think you may be interested in a
fact concerning the papers which
were sent in to the Carnegie Endow-
ment for International Peace and
which were read under my supervis-
ion.
Of all the schools which submitted
papers, which schools represented all
parts Of the United States, your
system was one of the two that
stood highest.
This must be gratifying to you, to
your teachers, and to your students,
and I hope you will allow me thus
personally to present my ~congratula-
lions.
Yours very truly,
DAVID EUGENE SMITH,
Professor of Mathematics.

CARBERRY FREE
GLASS IN PEN
TOM CARBERRY GETS FULL PAR
DON AND ACTION OF BOARD
GENERALLY APPROVED.
Herbert Glass in Pen, Believed the
Man Who Murdered Old Tom
CorcOran at Marmarth.

At the last meeting of the state
board of pardons held at Bismarck on
Friday and Saturday of last week
Thomas Carberry of Marmarth was
granted a full pardon after having
served in the state penitentiary since
January 23rd, 1912, on a sentence of
80 years on the charge of manslaugh-
ter in the second degree, in INK
ton with the killing of old Tom Cor
coran, an aged sheep herder at Mar
marth. Herbert Glass, who was en-
gagged in running a blind pig at Mar
marth at the time of the killing, is
serving time in the state peniten-
tiary for the same crime. The evil
dence in this case shows clearly that
the deed was committed by on mar
and two men were confined in the
pen to expirate this crime.
The action of the board was taken
after careful investigation of several
years. Written requests from nearly
every part of the state and especially
from the immediate vicinity of the
crime, business men at Marmarth and
other nearby towns, court officers
and jurymen who heard the case, ask
ing that a pardon be grantd and as
there were no letters of protest, the
board took into consideration the fine
record he had made at the prison and
the very grave doubt as to Carberry's
guilt and granted a full pardon. Mr..
Carberry left at once for Grand Forks
where he has secured a position with
Park, Grant & Morris, a big whole
sale fruit house.
The Carberry and Glass cases will
be we'll remembered in this part of
the country as they were held at
Medora. Thomas Carberry was first
tried for the killing of Corcoran. At
the time of the trial he vas a broken
down wreck of a man, caused by
drink and he w2.s in mortal fear of
Herbert Glass. He made a very poor
appearance at the trial and was con-
victed on circumstantial evidence.
There was always a great doubt in
the minds of the people at Marmarth
as to the guilt of Carberry and the
majority felt that Herbert Glass was
the guilty man. Finally Glass Vas
brought to trial and convicted of the
killing and was given a rs year sent
ence in the penitentiary.
Old Tom Corcoran was a harmless
old sheepherder, who worked for C. P.

this season.
Manager Pippin says that he will
have a fast pitcher to work with his
team. ArmantIaut of Beach will
probably be secured for one of the
games.
The Dickinson ball team has played
but three games this season, winning
two from Beach and dropping the
last game to Glendive. Some excel
lent material has been gathered and
with just 9 little more work a team
will be rounded out which will be a
credit to Dickinson.
Other Ball Games
There was a very interesting ball
game al New England last Sunday,
when the boys at the Cannon Ball
metropolis won a close game from
Lennon by a score of 5 to A. Win
son and L:tt;g did the pitching for
New England.

deer at the latter town which result
ed in a victory for Halliday by a
score of 2 to 0. Dickinson people
will be especially interested in this
game because quite a number of the
players on the Halliday team were
formerly stars of the diamond at
Dickinson. Gardner and Wasem
were the battery, three Wasem boys
played in the game, John N. Robin
son and Fred Hall were also in the
lineup. It was a pitchers battle
straight through and local admirers
will be pleased to know that Card
ner got the best end of the battle.
The only cores in the game were
made in the first inning. Northrop
and Moore were the battery for Kill
deer.
Amidon 3, Belfeld 2.
The Belfield boys journeyed across
country to Amidon, the cunty seat of
Slope county, for the sole purpose of
getting revenge for the game the
previous week, when at Belfield the
Amidon boys took the long end of a
7 to 0 score. The game was closely
cntested, resulting in another victory
for Amidon. Amidon has one of the
best ball teams in the country this
year and this in spite of the fact that
this little town is rs miles from the
railroad.

Dickinson Loses
Game at GlendiVe

The Dickinson ball team went
down in defeat for the first time this
season at Glendive last Sunday, when
the boys from the Treasure State got
the long end of . ~ to 5 score. Al
though the score does not indicate it
the Dickinson boys played excellent
ball, getting Is hits and only making
two errors. The loss of the game is
attributed solely to the lack of a
pitcher. Kilroy, who is an oldtimer
in the game and a "warm-weather"
pitcher has been unable to get into
condition this spring and at the pres
ent time is suffering with a sore arm
which makes it impossible for him to
pitch. Just a few Dickinson fans &C.
companied the boys to Glendive and
they returned home early Monday
morning, covered with great gobs of
gloom.
Much against his will, Lano, who
is a fast infielder, but makes no pre-
tensions as a pitcher, obeyed the
mandate of his manager and went
into the box for Dickinson. He made
a pretty fair showing at that until
the sixth inning when some traitor
must have slipped into the enemy's
camp and let it slip to the Glendive
boys that he was not a pitcher. For
in this inning when the Montana
sluggers came to the bat they seemed
to have lost all respect due to a
pitcher and hammered in Z runs. H.
o. Pippin finished the game and he
admits himself that he rather over
worked the outfielders.
It was a great swat feast. Each
team got Is hits. Glendive made 6
errors to the two made by the local
tossers. So it can be readily seer
that if Dickinson had only had a
pitcher who could have held their
~adversaries down the least little bit
they might have returned victorious.
All of the Dickinson ooys had their
batting toys on for this occasion.
Pippin led the procession with four
hits, one of these for three sacks and
one a double.
"Bud" Dougherty of Jamestown
played his first game with Dickinson
and made an excellent showing be-
hind the bat. He WAS also fast on
the bases. Dougherty has been the
coach for the Jamestown college and

Allison, the big sheep grower. After
working for the season he came to
town and received his seasons wages.
This money is supposed to have been
the motive of the crime. It was
proved that Glass was there and con-
vincing proof that Carberry was also
there is the fact that he was shot in
the back of the leg and was found
near the scene next morning. He
was very drunk at the time. The
bullet that killed Corcoran was the
same size as the one that made it
impossible for Carberry to get away
from the scene. After Corcoran was
shot his body was picked up and
placed in a sitting posture in the
sheep wagon. How could Carberry,
who "a so severely wounded that he
could not walk up stairs, pick up this
dead mar and place him in the
wagon
There were many other points
which made the people of Marmarth
feel that Tom Carberry was an inno-
cent man and for several years they
have been working hard to secure his
release. Editor j. H. Cramer of The
Marmarth Mail has probably done
more than anyone else toward this
end.
Tom Carberry was a model pris-
oner. The North Dakota ~penitentiary
has done wonders for him. He went
there a physical wreck and leaves the
institutional man.. For the past
two years or more he has been a
trusted employee and clerk in the
front office of the penitentiary. He
has earned and enjoyed privileges
and has never abused them. For
some weeks past he has been assist
ing in the work in Governor Hanna's
office at the state capitol, which not.
only shows his present efficiency but
the extent of the trust placed in him.

Hydron, a new recruit from Butte,
of whom great things were expected,
went into the box for Glendive but
was forced to retire after four inn
ings before the Dickinson "big-stick"
artists. Chass finished the game.
Tom Velancy of Dickinson umpired
the bases and gave general satisfac-
ton. The Dickinson boys feel that
they received a little the worst of
ths decisions of Umpire Taylor on the
strikes and balls.
Following is the box story which
tells the sad story in detail.

THE PATUxENT.

The PatuXent vein, which was cut
several months ago from a crosscut
from the main tunnel of the Rex, and
which exposed a large body of milling
ore, both lead and zinc, has now been
explored for a distance of $50 feet and
with the exception of about rs feet in
the west drift and probably $50 feet
in the east, there is continuous ore the
entire distance of commercial value
In the east drift zinc seems to pre-
dominate while in the west there is
more lead. The west drift is now
gaining depth rapidly, and after pass
ing through rather barren spot for
a distance of about rs feet, the ore is
again coming in stronger in the form
of streaks of clean galena.
James F. Callahan, of Interstate
Callahan fame, is the principal owner
of the Patuxent, and during his alb
sence the affairs of the company are
being taken care of by Frank Boutin,
secretary and a large stockholder. A
recent letter from Mr. Callahan says
he will sail from Honolulu on Febru-
airy 26, and after a stop Of about a
week in Los Angeles will arrive home
about March TO-

THE IDAHO NORTHERN.

The Idaho Northern Mining COM
pany has completed plans for driving
a crosscut that will open its property
at an additional depth Of 400 feet and
which it is believed will transform 1t
from a prospect to mine. The pres
ent development has disclosed two
large veins, one of which has been
drifted upon to considerable extent
showing a large body of ore in which
there are values in lead, copper and
silver aggregating about $95 per ton.
AS early as practical in the spring a
crosscut will be started which will cut
the vein 400 feet deeper and which 1t
is expected will disclose a large and
permanent body of commercial ore
The money to drive this crosscut,
which will be probably 1900 feet in
length, is now available and there will
be no interruption until the work is
completed The company will move its
compressor to the lower tunnel and the
work will be pushed as rapidly as pos
sible. The company has ample water
power to run the compressor The
Idaho Northern is located at the head
Of Butte creek, northeast Of Murray.

THE NEVADA-STEWART.

M. j. Sinclair, manager of the New
ada Stewart company on Pine creek,
was in the city yesterday. According
to his description Pine creek is about
the busiest spot in the Occur d'Alenes
at this time. Many properties are
working and several are shipping ore,
and the road up the creek is lined
with teams coming out or going in,
the former hauling ore and the latter
taking in machinery and supplies. At
the Nevada Stewart the new COM
pressor is now in running order, the
electric juice being turned on this
week. A lower tunnel is to be run that
will cut the vein $50 feet below the
upper and a contract has been award
ed to B. A. Barnett to drive 500 feet
The vein has been crosscut at depth
of about so feet showing it to be about
40 feet wide with more or less ore in
evidence. However, it appears to be
very much broken and disturbed, and
it is expected that the crosscut now
being run will find it in permanent
place and probably carrying a shoot of
ore.

Ore Shipments Being Rushed Before
Snow Road Vanishes.
During the past few days the Con-
stitution Mining company, on Pine
creek, has been hauling zinc ore to the
railroad for shipment. The mild wea-
ther threatens to make an end to snow
roads and the company is evidently
rushing the ore out before the roads
become impossible for loaded vehicles,
1t is stated that the company has
about two carloads which has accum-
ulated on the dump in the course of
development.
The Constitution vein is being ex-
plored by drift which is opening a
large amount Of ore. At the same
time a shaft is being sunk which is
now down upwards of so feet and will
be extended to q depth of 200, when
the vein win be crosscut for further
exploration. Twenty or more men are
being employed by the Constitution,
and the expectation is that before the
summer is far advanced the mine will
be ready for a mill.
