BUYS STORE AT MILTON

A change in business, the announce
ment of which was made public fo,
the first time on Monday this week,
is the purchase by Mr. John ]. Boyd,
of this city, of the general mercantile
business at Milton of Simon Schefter.
The deal is one that has been pending
since the withdrawal a couple of
months ago of MIR. Bovd from the
partnership with his father in the
Boyd department store, although the
details incident to the changing of
ownership of the business were not
closed by the buyer and seller until
this week. MIR. Schefter in addition
to his exclusive clothing house in this
city has been interested for some years
financially in stores at both Milton
and Hannah, but as he finds opportu-
nifty is now disposing his out of town
properties in order to be able to give
closer attention to his rapidly growing
clothing business in Langdon. The
Milton store in which Mr.. Boyd starts
UP in business for himself is admit.
tedly one of the best business open
ings to be found in the west at this
time. while his experience with the
trade of Cavalier county should make
the opening an advantageous one.

TWO RECRUITS RETURNED

Albert Chase and Joseph Roth, two
of Langdon's recruits enlisting at the
call of Uncle Sam in the navy, re.
turned to the city on Saturday, hav.
ing found on reaching the recruiting
station in Minneapolis they were un-
able to pass the physical examination.
In Chase's case his weight was not
found to be proportionate with his
height. Roth was turned down by the
enlisting officer owing to defect in
the hearing of one ear. The names
of both it is understood have been
placed on the waiting list and the
boys are likely to be called up for
service later. Walter Gould, who
went with them was successful in
passing all tests of the examining
officers and now is at the training
camp at Great Lakes. Ill. His stay
there is likely to last from ten days
to two weeks. when he will be sent
east and assigned to one of the U. S.
training ships before joining the navy
for active service as a seaman.

OSNABROCK CT. N. MISHAp

Hans Jorgenson, the section foEss-
man of the Great Northern railroad
company at Osnabrock, is laid ups
with dislocation of the thigh joint
of his left leg and fracture of the.
left shoulder blade. 1t is also being
feared that he has sustained Internal
injuries, as the result of an accident
in which he was the victim when
starting out to work Monday morning.
Jorgenson, and his section crew of
four, men had reached point along
the track about smile and half
south of Osnabrock. when Jorgenson,
, who was ahead, riding on a push car
in front of the car propelled by a
gasoline engine, reached to pick some,
tools that had been left when they
quit work Saturday evening. The
! track was wet and the brakes when
applied to slow down the speed of the
car failed to work. Jorgenson Slipped
and fell between the two cars, the
hind car with its weight of the engine
and the four men passing over hia
body. The impact when the car met,
the obstruction was sufficient to threw
both the car and its occupants off tho
track. Both Langdon and Milton
doctors were sent for and it was some
little time after the man was taken
to .Osnabrock before he regained con-
seriousness. Jorgenson is forty-fves
years old and has been with the rail-
road company as its section foreman
at Osnabrock for some years.

E. H. DURBIN SERIOUSLY II

Sunday forenoon E. H. Durbin was
taken down with an acute attack of
pleurisy and has since been under
medical treatment and the attendance
of trained nurse at his room at the
U. c. T. hotel. MIR. Durbin was
feeling far from we'll at the time of
his return to Langdon last Friday
from Orange, Calif., where he had
spent most of the winter with his
family. The condition of Mr.. Durbi1
is further complicated by erysipelas.
Later reports indicate the patient has
safely turned the critical point in his

it will not be necessary to call Mrs.
Durbin and the family from the home
in California to his bedside.
