friends got together shortly before the
election and decided that his name
should be presented by the sticker
route.
The Doctor is a public spirited citi-
zen, and takes a great deal of interest
in our parks. He will make a good
commissioner. He takes the place of
Colonel Scarlett, who has held the Of

Christian Church Will Build in Spring.

Christian Church Will Build in Spring
Plans for the basement of the First
Christian church were drawn last fall
by Mr.. Robt. B. Stacy-Judd, but it was
decided to wait till spring to begin the
work. The basement will be 4Ox6O
feet and located on the lots owned by
the church at the corner of the en-
trance to the Eastwood addition to the
city.
The church has been doing it's work
in different halls and is much in need
of a building in which to carry on
their growing work.
Mr.. Utter, we understand, is to have
the contract and the basement is to
be ready for use some time in June.
Some aid will be rendered by the
Board of Church Extension, located at
Kansas City, but in addition to this
the membership will put forth their
strength to raise among themselves all
possible.
They will also appreciate the as.
sistance of all who are interested in
the material and spiritual growth OF
Minot.
Mr.. F. B. Sapp, the State Secretary
Of Missions, is giving what time he
can to this work, and it is hoped that
in the near future the church may
have a located minister who can give
all his time to the work.
This is a live and growing church
and it's influence for good is sure to
be felt more and more as time adj

was in charge, noticed that he acted
queerly. After he had left, Mrs. Fret
tenn missed the silk and running out
onto the street followed the man for
a block. She grabbed him by the coat
and accused him Of taking the silk.
He tremblingly admitted it and she
declared that if he would return to the
store he would not be arrested. He
accompanied her back. He was con-
fronted by one of the proprietors and
stated that he was hungry and had
stolen the goods to get something to
eat. The proprietors decided not to
prosecute if the story be true. The
man was taken to the police station
and upon being searched, two more
bolts of silk were found, one stuffed
down each pants leg The man prov
ed to be a professional crook. He was
arraigned in district court, pleaded
guilty and was sentenced to one year
in the penitentiary.
