WINS A THRILLING
GAME FROM TOWER CITY

The fans who witnessed the
basket ball game last Saturday
afternoon between Hope High
School and Tower City High
we're treated to some of the most
exciting and thrilling parts of
this popular indoor sport seer at
Hope for several years.
The first half opened with
both teams playing about even,
Tower City drawing first blood
by scoring a field goal Hope
followed with a free throw and
field goal. Then Tower surged
ahead six or eight points and
held this lead until near the
close of the half when Hope
caught up and when time was
called they lead with a ID to II
score.
Hope opened the second period
by scoring two field goals; then
the visitors, by their fine basket
ball playing and teamwork,
Gagged eight counters while Hope
scored two. And then the ex-
element started. Hope, with
splendid encouragement from
the spectators, took a dying grip
on themselves and scored basket
after basket, altho having to
fight every second. With about
three minutes of play and the
score ~ to so, Carmichael, Tower
City's star man, scored a pretty
overhead shot, making the score
20 to 30. In the last thirty sec
onds, Fullmer, who with Stevens
and Bowling handled the scoring
for the H. H. S. team, threw the
last basket. The game ended
with the score 80 to 20 in Hopes
favor.
The work of all the Hope play
ers was of high order, and men
ton must also be made of the
basket ball knowledge and play
ing ability of the visitors. The
team is composed of players
, who may be relied upon to give
good accounts of themselves
in all their games this year.

NORWEGlANS ANGERED AT
PRO-GERMAN CAPTAIN

The following interesting story
which was translated from a NorWeg-
ian paper, was handed to the Indepen-
dent for publication:
A young English boy, prisoner Of
war, at Lybeck, Germany, escaped
and found hiding place on board a
Norwegian steamship, lying at the
dock. The boy hoped to go with the
ship to Norway and from there to his
home in England, as he had been in
formed that his mother was i'll. The
crew did not know anything about the
Stowaway but enrOute the men work
ing around the engine found the Eng
lish lac They gave him water and
food from what they secured for them
selves. The hiding place became so
warm, the lad sat in the hallway Of
the engine room when the head engi-
neer discovered him, reporting the
matter to the captain. The captain
signaled German war ship. A cruis-
er came alongside to receive the pris-
oner and the crew seemed disgusted
that they had been stopped merely to
receive young boy, but the poor fel.
low was dragged overheard to be re-
turned to Germany.
Norway, the crew told Of the case and
the people became angry. The ship
! had to unload merchandise at differ
ent places along the coast, but it re
ceived poor welcome. At Aalesund
1000 people gathered at the dock and
bombarded the ship with wood and
stones. The police could not control
the mob and the ship had to leave
Upon it's arrival at Kristianssund, il
received the same kind of a reception
1t left for Strondhjem, but the people
had read about the affair and the shiI
was again bombarded by a mob, anC
the ship had to retire from the dock
The crowd claimed that the Captain
should be removed rom the ship be
fore the goods could be removed ant
the Captain left on a train for Chris

W. A. PECk'S VERSION OF
HORSE INSPECTION AFFAIR

10 the Ward Co. Independent:
In explanation to the farmers who
were disappointed in the recent pre-
liminary inspection Of horses intended
for sale to the government in the open
market and to Mr.. VIM. Groninger of
Des Lacs, in particular, whose inter-
view you published, will make the fol-
lowing statement:
Some two months ago advised the
State Agricultural College that con-
tract horse buyers were buying horses
at much less than their value and ap-
parently at too big margins of profit,
asking if the matter could not be TAX
Ell up with the war department with
the idea of cutting out these middle
men.
| was advised that the matter was
under consideration and a short time
later was advised that the war depart
ment would attempt to buy direct
from the farmers in the open market,
provided the farmers would group to-
gether and offer at any one point, car.
load lots Of horses which would meet
the specifications of the war depart.

RUGBY FARMERS
HORSES BUTCHERED
LAST WEEK
Prominent Farmer Suffers Attack on
His Horses by Some Degenerate
Three Animals Mutilated

Rugby, N. D., Sept. 19.-One Of the
most dastardly crimes that has ever
been committed in this or any other
county in the state was committed last
Thursday night at the home of Ole
Tofte, one of the prominent farmers
Of Tofte township, when some degen-
crate deliberately mutilated three of
his best horses, which were in the pas
ture, with what appears to have been
sharp double-edged weapon, killing
one and seriously wounding two fine
four-year-old horses.
Mr.. Tofte was absent that night, at
their threshing rig, about six miles
from home, the only night that he had
been away from home this year, when
the black crime was committed.
Friday morning when the horses
came up to water it was noticed that
the older of the three horses seemed
rather sick and soon it was discovered
that blood was dripping from a wound
in the belly, but it was thought that
it had lain down on something sharp
had lain down on something sharp
which had inflicted some slight injury
In few hours, however, the animal
was found dead in the pasture. The
bows went out to take the hide off and
when they rolled it over they discov-
cred the knife wound, which subse-
ouent examination proved penetrated
the intestines, making a fatal wound
1t was then found that the other two
young horses had been horribly slash.
ed, one at the rear of the right and
the other the left shoulder, the worse
than murderer apparently having held
the animals by the halter or mane
while doing the evil job.
The sheriff was called to the scene
and an effort made to arrive at some
solution of the unwarranted act, but
absolutely no clue could be discovered
that tended in any way to point out
the identify of the animal assassin.
