FIRST AID FOR SHOCK.
Treatment Has Saved Victims oi
Electric Current.

Treatment Has saved tlcumS oA
Electric Current.
The number of deaths that occur
every year from electrical SHOCK
have never been reported by the
statistician, but it is estimated by
one electric company that they num-
ber many thousands. Fortunately,
however, recent experiments have il
Illustrated that persons apparently
dead from electric shook may be re-
suscitated by special kind of first
aid treatment.
The victim is taken hold of by the
heels. which are raised slowly un-
til the weight of the body is on the
shoulders. This is done several times
in succession. after which the bot
tom Of the feet are tapped vigorous
ly with cane or stick. Tnasmuch n
as an overdose of electricity causes
the victim to swallow his tongue, the
mouth should be opened and the
tongue pulled back into place the
very first thing. An encouraging
number of cases have recovered when
administered this first aid treatment,
and it is now being taught by several
electrical companies.

IS SURPRISED At
I. THE CROP OUTLOOK

Bismarck, N. D., June Tits an
old story. but it loses nothing by
repetition. II never have seen
more land in crops, nor crops that
were put in in better shape" said
E. G. w Wanner, secretary of the
state board Of control, today On his
return from a tour of all the state
institutions, which carried him into
a majority of the counties in the
eastern and northern part Of the
state.
Crops are unusually fine, and
found remarkable -unanimity in a
prayer for rain, although there was
no apparent immediate necessity.
The farmer will profit this year
from the excellent preparation
which he gave his seed bed this
spring. In very few instances did
see any wheat that had been
disked in. and every acre Of it was
green. strong and sturdy"

MAY OF 1917 DRYEST
KNOWN IN N. DAKOTA

Bismarck, N. D., May 28.-Unless
the rainmaker turns loose his
wares in North Dakota within
three days, May, 1917, will go
down in history as the dryest May
North Dakota has experienced in
the AZ years that the United States
weather bureau has been establish
ed at Bismarck. At that, May will
end with an accumulated deficiency
of moisture of but 1.9 inches, and
crops are in as fine condition as
they have ever been known at this
time of the year.
The rain fall for April was 1.27,
an excess of .23 inches. March
had but so, deficiency of .43, and
the deficiency Of May, with only .O1
of an inch rain fall is a record, but
the unusually heavy snowfall OF
January and February almost even
ed up matters, making the accum-
ulated deficiency nothing to worry
about.
In 1915, North Dakota's banner
crop year to date, 4.43 inches of
rain fell in May and $40 in June.

DEC0MPOSEO BODY
IS FOUND IN RIVER

Minot, N. D., June 6.-The body
of John Olson who has lived in this
city for several years and who has
been missing since just before
Thanksgiving. was found in Mouse
river last night about o'clock at
the point where the water mains
to Riverside park.
The body was removed to the un-
dertaking parlors of ]. W. Rowan
where Coroner r. j. Pence made an
examination for the purpose of as
certaining whether the man came to
his death by accident or was the
victim sof foul play. No marks
were found on the body to indicate
that he had been murdered, but it
was so badly decomposed that death
might have resulted from foul
means and yet been impossible of
detection at this time.
In the pockets of the clothing,
which showed that he had met
death during the cold weather, it
being heavy and warm, were found
a sales check for 81 for lumber pur-
chased from the Great Northern

whiskey bottle with the cork out
and filled with river water, cork
screw, watch, a number of nails,
and a pocketbook with nothing in
it.
The cement structures which
protect the watermains cross the
river at two different points at the
loop. The body was found lodged
against the lower Of these two.
The upper enc is a different height
in the. water than the lower one
and the body might have passed it
while being carried down the river.
But the more reasonable cOnclu-
sion would be that the man got into
the river at some point between
these two.

border guards have been mustered
into service.
Portal auto livery men have re-
ported to immigration officials that
they have frequently been approach
ed by young men, asking to be TAX
en- to the nearest Canadian point,
but asking that a detour be made.
These cases are now being reported
to immigration officials.
Since Canada established the
passport law, immigration from
Canada to the United States has de-
clined quite noticeably. The new
Canadian law is very strict in it's re-
quirements. Photos Of the traveller
must be attached to the passport
and travellers certificate. and both
documents must be sworn to and
signed by a bank manager, sheriff,
minister and four reputable friends.
Both immigration officials and
mounted police meet each interna-
tional train at the boundary and
every passenger is subjected to a
rigid examination. Several pas
sengers who were unaware of the
new regulations have been taken
from trains and detained in Cana
da pending further investigation.

Martin O. Helseth, one of the
prominent farmers of near Stam-
pede drove to this city Wednesday
for the purpose Of purchasing a
quantity of timothy seed from G..
A. Kopriva, and at the same time
look after other business matters.
He told us that the farmers in his
neighborhood were more fortunate
this spring than were the farmers
here for the reason that the Stam-
pede and Columbus territory re-
ceived heavy rain last Sunday
morning, while the rain that fell
here amounted to practically moth
ing. Mr.. Helseth states that the
crops in the vicinity of his farm
could not be in any better condi-
ton, and that in his opinion there
will be a big harvest in western
Burke county this fall.

Night AUTO LIVERY
DOES: BIG BUSINESS

Portal, N. D.. June Young
Americans in large numbers are
making their way across the inter
national boundary at this point, and
in the territory: adjacent, according
to findings of immigration officials
who have made thorough investi-

Most of the young men who are
getting out of the United States
supposedly for the purpose Of avoid
ing the conscript act, make their
4way across the boundary during the
hight. They arrive In Portal dur

are missing. The theory is that a

maintained to take them. across
the boundary at some point remote

CHORAL
CLUB WELL RECEIVED

The entertainment given at the
Royal Theatre last Monday evening
by local talent under the direction
of Rev. Otto Weiser proved to be a
big success considering the small
amount of time which was spent in
rehearsing. The music was very
difficult and ordinarily takes some
time in which to master it, but the
various members of the Bowbells
Choral Club put in some very hard
work during the short space of
time they had, and did remarkably
we'll. The hall was packed, and
we find that most everyone present
was more than satisfied with the
entertainment. On Tuesday even
ing the members of the club drove
to Portal, and there gave the same
entertainment In this instance,
too, the crowd present was unusual
ly large, and the music more than
satisfied everyone. We learn that
another musical entertainment will
be given here later on by the same
club, at which time more time will
be allowed for rehearsing. Follow

in the entertainment Monday and
