German Sea Raider

Pernambuco, Brazil, Jan. 30.-Fron
Information CLEANED from survivors
Of steamers sunk recently in the
South Atlantic by a German raider, il
has been learned that the raider was
a vessel Of the merchant type, about
300 feet long and with parts OF her
sides movable. She had two tele
scope masts, two telescope tunnels, q
false hand steering gear on the poop
deck, which concealed her largest
gun, and four concealed torpedo tubes
The steamer, it says, mounted four
s-inch and two finch guns and also
smaller guns, including several of the
machine type. She was equipped with

raider frequently was repainted, and
had on board sufficient material to
completely change her appearance.
There is disagreement among the
men landed here as to whether the
raider is armored. All Of them agree,
however, that the raider is thoroughly
equipped and that no detail in this
respect has been overlooked. AS an
example, they say, each prisoner on
boarding the raider is furnished with
a kit hammock and blanket.
The prisoners are kept in the hold,

Ors in Membership Contest

The members of Minot Council 277
U. c. T. held one of the enthusiastic
meetings for which the organization is
noted Saturday night and elected Off
GERS for the ensuing year. The bust
ness session was followed by splen-
did repost and smoker. A large num-
Der were in attendance. The officers
elected for the year were as follows
Senior Counselor-C. H. Coar.
Junior Counselor-H. H. Bragg.
Past Counselor-W. G.. Hancock.
Secretary Treasurer-W. w. Tyler.
Conductor-W. c. Stephan.

and A. Manson.
Delegates to Grand Councils. w.
Fassett, E. G. Smith and r. H. Camp.
Alternates-A. A. Robinson, F. w.
Youngman and E. C. Perry.
The officers elected will be installed
at the next meeting.
Secretary w. w. Tyler was elected
for his third consecutive term, his effic-
lent services making him candidate
without opposition.
Resolutions were passed supporting
President Wilson and his present pol
icies, which were forwarded to him by
telegraph.
The local council is out to capture
both the flag and the cup which is Of
fered for increased membership by
the jurisdiction. The flag is given to
the council making the greatest in
crease or percentage in membership
during the year and the cup for the
largest numerical increase. The To-
cal members intend to bring home
both of these trophies. At this time
there are but four councils in the en-
tire twenty-four of the jurisdiction
which are ahead of Minot and while
all of them are located in the large
cities, all are badly winded and some
ready to quit the race, while Minot is
just getting ready to put on it's high
speed.

At the meeting Wednesday after

telling the women how to test silks
So many of the cheaper silks are dip

break and crack. To test silk, hold a
piece over candle. If, after burning:
the threads retain their original
shape, the silk is genuine.

to both the buyer and the seller of
grain, stated Dr. Ladd. IF the
farmer is dissatisfied with his grade,

placed on the grain at the primary

inspectors at the elevators for a re-
grading.
The North Dakota grain grading
department some time ago adopted
the federal grades as the official
standard for North Dakota.
