LANCER ISSUE
BOOZE" ORDER
Would Make 1t Possible for Huff
Sufferer to be Supplied
With Sherry.

Fargo, N. d., Oct. 26.-Justice Jas.
EE. Robinson, of the supreme court Of
gNorth Dakota, the jurist who slapped
ythe blue laws" in the face last Win
ter when he could not purchase his
ISunday morning newspaper, with the
dircct result that bhe laws were re-
spealed, has received letter from a
woman in Huff, North Dakota, advis-
ing him that she is suffering from tu-
berculosis, that her physicians have
recommended raw eggs in sherry, but
CHAT she was unable to obtain the
sherry, even on a physicians prescrip-
lion.
/ The friend of the people then acted.
Judge Robinson straighGway wrote
out an order that the sufferer be sup
piled with her sherry.
y The order was taken to Attorney
General William LANCER who affixed
his signature. 1t was then mailed to
the woman at Huff.
4 A few days later the patient re
turned Judge Robinson's letter to him
with an inscription from a st. Paul
wholesale liquor house to the effect
that "No Intoxicating liquors will be
Slllpptt lllJO 4NoI ltthopeA Tioliote VI
ders from Judge Amidon."
Judge James E. Robinson has refer
red the matter to Judge Amidon ex-
planning the situation and asking that
he add his endorsement to the two sig
natures which already appear upon
the order for sherry.
\ Judge Amidon left Fargo late Mon
day afternoon for points in the east.
III the meantime the woman at Huff
is waiting for her raw eggs and sher-
ry. The judge will be back in ten days
and if the woman's case becomes acute
within that time, the judge will prob
ably have to write to the twin city
liquor house informing its proprietor
that his decision permits shipments
into the state in interstate commerce
where such liquor is to be used for
scientific, sacramento, medicinal and
mechanical purposes.

BURN BRICKS, SAYS BLAKE
MORE.

Fuel Administrator r. B. Blake
more for the Fargo district, yesterday
stated he had discovered way of
burning kerosene for heating pur-
poses in a common alright sheet iron
stove. This is the way he says it can
be done:
Soak dozen bricks in kerosene for
several hours and ignite. The kero-
sene in the bricks will burn for an
hour or more and become red hot.
They will continue to radiate heat for
several hours after the kerosene has
burned out of the bricks. There is no
ashes and the bricks can be soaked
and used again until worn out, which
takes long time. By using two dozen
bricks, half Of them may be soaking
in the kerosene while the others are
being burned.
Mr.. Blakemore claims this is very
effective fuel for heating purposes in
an alright heater and costs less than
any kind of coal.

RUSSIAN SUICIDES
BY THE GUN ROUTE
John Samek of Dickinson Ties String
to Trigger and Toe and Dis
charges Gun.

Dickinson, N. d., Oct. 29.-John K.
Samek, "a years old, Russian, who
had been in this country for 8 years,
committed suicide Monday morning
by shooting himself through the left
breast with a single-barreled shot
gun. Samek was alone in the house
at the time on his farm, 20 miles
north of Dickinson. His brother, who
lived in the same house, was in town
and Samek's wife was on a visit to
her parents. Tying a string to the
trigger of the gun, Samek is suppos-
ed to have taken off his shoe and loop
ed the other end of the string about
his big toe. Directing the gun at his
breast, he exerted pressure on the
string. The ball entered his left
breast just above the heart and death
must have followed quickly.
He was found by his brother who
returned home about o'clock that
evening. The body was cold: The
corpse was buried in the Bohemian
cemetery Wednesday.
