DR.. F. l.. Householder, city commits
sioner, who was acting as traffic officer
on circus day, suffered dislocated ell
bow Monday afternoon when he fell
just as he was stepping from the side
of Walter Edgar's car. A fellow
named Donaldson had passed the doc

street at thirty miles an hour, and
failed to stop when ordered to do so.
Householder mounted the Edgar car,
high powered machine, and ordered
the driver to give chase. AS he near

his emergency brake and the doctor
fell to the pavement.
Danielson in his iii old Ford ram
bled right along, with Edgar in close
pursuit. Danielson knew that he had
violated the law and wanted to get
away. The chase led thru crowded
streets and there were number of
narrow escapes. The Ford made some
quicker turns than the big car but
Edgar finally caught his man near the
Walker greenhouse. Danielson was
assessed $24. "I would never have

Ed BY ENPL0YE
Fred Grams, Proprietor of Dakota
Bakery, and His Brother Struck
Down by Chas. Boras, Driver.

Charles Boras, who worked for the

arrested Wednesday morning for

woman who was packing the box need
ed some extra bread and went to the
wagon to get it. The driver ordered

$4,000 FIRE
AT DEER|NC
Fire Started in Apartments of L. L..
Haskins-Number Of Buildings
Were Destroyed.

Deering, July 11.-A disastrous fire
broke out at 10 o'clock today in the
apartments of Mr.. and Mrs. L. L.
Haskins, who occupy rooms over the
Haskins store, destroying the Haskins
building, a vacant bank building ad-
Joining, the Hughes theatre, the I'M
perial lumber yard and office, the E.
E. Booth garage and an unoccupied
store building, entailing loss esti-
mated at $4,000. One whole city
block was wiped out within the short
space of few hours. For while it
looked as if the whole town was
doomed as stiff wind prevailed, but
heroic efforts on the part of the local
fire brigade, assisted by citizens with
buckets and wet blankets, succeeded
in checking the fire. Dynamite was
used when the fire reached the Booth
garage, and to this fact, no doubt,
may be attributed the salvation OF
the town. Buildings on the opposite
side of the street were badly damaged
and many windows were cracked by
the intense heat. l.. l.. Haskins SUI
fered the greatest loss. He estimates
his loss on stock and household eff
fects at $1,000, building $4,000. In
addition TO JnlS t1aSklHS lOSL P1,Ooo III
currency which he laid away, in
bureau drawer and forgot in the ex-
citement attendant upon the fire.
Messrs. Hughes and Larson, owners
of the moving picture house, put their
loss at $25OO on buildings and $500
on contents. e. e. Booth places his
loss at fully $500. The Imperial lum-
Der company's loss is estimated at
$4,000 to $4,000. The buildings
were all of frame construction and
burned like tinder. L. L. HaslIins was
badly burned about the face and arms
and one or two other citizens suffer
ed from burns and slight injuries. The
fire was caused by some parafine
which Mrs. Haskins was using in can
ming fruit becoming ignited from the
gasoline stove. Mrs. Haskins threw
some soda upon the flames which
smothered them for moment when
either the stove exploded or the com
bination of parafine and soda result
ed in an explosion, scattering, the
flames about the room, and within a
moments time the apartments occu-
pied by Mr.. and Mrs. Haskins were
seething mass of flame.

are overlooked, should not hesitate to
attend and to notify all other Hoosiers.
A special program will be prepared:
A large crowd is certain to attend and
join in the big picnic dinner to be serv-
ed on long tables under the beautiful
trees.

PRETTY WEDDING
AT nelson HOME
Miss Thelma Nelson Becomes the
Bride of Alfred t. Hoiseth-Wed-
ding Morn Serenade.

The marriage of Miss Thelma II.
Nelson, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. N.
G. Nelson, to Alfred Thomas Hoseth,
occurred at the Nelson home on Sec
ond street N. w. Tuesday afternoon
at four o'clock, the Rev. T. F. Gull
lixson, pastor Of the First Lutheran
church officiating. The ceremony was
performed in the presence of but the
immediate members of the family and
few close friends. AS the bridal pair
took their places for the ceremony,
sweet and appropriate selections were
sung by two Of Minot's favorite vo-
calists, the Misses Ruth Ellison and
Sigrid Reishus. The bride, who is an
unusually attractive young woman,
was gowned in an exquisite creation
of Crepe Meteor and Georgette Crepe,
trimmed in silver beads. The Nelson
home was beautifully decorated with
roses and peonies and white and pink
streamers, those colors forming the
scheme thruout. After the ceremony
buffet luncheon was served The
happy couple will go on their honey
moon in August, visiting points in
Minnesota, including the former home
Of the groom, Paynesville, MINI.
One of the unusual and exceedingly
pretty features of the day, was the
serenade by the members Of the First
Lutheran choir, Of which the bride is
a member, stealing into the Nelson
home at five o'clock in the morning
and rendering in most effective man
ner "Tis Our Wedding Morning" This
was a complete surprise to the bride,
who was awakened by the sweet
strains. Miss Sebby presided at the
piano. The wedding breakfast was
then served at the home Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Gunder Reishus.
The bride has resided in Minot all
of her life, attending our city schools
and the Minot Normal school. She is
young woman of much culture and
with winning ways, which have sur
rounded her with hosts Of warm
friends. The groom is a young man
who has been employed in the N: c:
Nelson grocery store. He is well liked
by all for his many sterling qualities.

WORK STARTED ON
new V|ADUCT
Preliminary Work Starts for the New
Steel Viaduct Over the 500 and
Great Northern Tracks.

Work on Minot's new steel viaduct
has actually started. A force of work
men started constructing sheds this
week which will be used in housing the
tools and material used in building the
great steel viaduct which will cross
the Great Northern and the 500
tracks.
A change is being made in the piers
of the old viaduct so that the work OF
constructing the new one can go on
without interfering in the least with
traffic. Many immense piles have ar
rived which will be driven deep into
to ground to strengthen the concrete
piers for the new viaduct, and other
material will come along as fast as
needed. While it will be big under
taking, it is expected that the new
viaduct will be completed this year.

10000 SEE BARNUM &
BAILEY'S CIRCUS
Second Largest Crowd in the History
of Great Shows See Circus in
Minot Monday.

AS near as the Independent can
learn, fully thirty thousand people saw
Barnum & Bailey's circus which show
ed in this city Monday, and from one
of the managers it was learned that
at but one previous performance, at
Pittsburg, Pa, some years ago, was
the crowd ever surpassed in number.
1t is estimated that 10000 saw the
afternoons performar q and half that
number attended at l. ,ht. The i'm
mense tent was filled to capacity and
then some. Thousands of people sat
on the ground in front OF the seats,
10 or Is feet deep. Thousands were
turned away to return in the evening.
The crowd came from everywhere.
From every direction came automo-
biles, veritable stream OF them,
bringing in the merry throngs. The
day was ideal and people were here
from distance of $50 miles or more.
The country homes must have been al
most deserted that day.
1t is estimated that there were 81
600 automobiles in the city that day
and despite this fact there was not a
very serious accident. A few cars
were iammed, and one little boy was
run over, suffering fractured arm.
The crowd was good natured.
Everybody seemed happy and well
pleased with the greatest show on
earth" Thousands brot their dinners
and ate them in the parks Of wherever
else they could find room. The eat,
ing houses turned crowds away and
the fellow with the "hot dog stand
did thriving business. Minot mer-
chants say they did an immense busi-
ness during the day.
The circus was all that the tlaring
posters claimed that it would be. 1t
was clean and entertaining thruout.
The worlds greatest artists gathered
under one great tent We'd in efforts
to surpass one another and it is
doubtful if Barnum & Bailey ever put
on better circus anywhere. Of course
they are coming to Minot again some
day.

Milk Wholesalers viii Raise Prices

Nlh VuOleSdleTS VIII NdlSe TTlCes
The wholesalers of milk will hold a
meeting in Minot Saturday afternoon
of this week for the purpose of agree
ing on raise in the price Of milk.
They are getting 20 cents gallon,
wholesale, for their milk now but say
that owing to the scarcity and the
high price of feed, they will have to
raise at least cents gallon in order
to make fair profit. They propose to
raise the price only until such time
as the price of feed becomes less.
Hay is very high in Minot and
scarce, selling at from SIS to $1S a
ton. Farmers are securing the coun-
try, looking for hay land but are meet
ing with but little success. Alfalfa is
selling for $50 ton in the field in
Montana and by the time it is brot to
Minot, it will cost from $35 to $38 a
ton.
A. w. May, a prominent dairyman
from south of the city, says that he is
going to Towner tomorrow to look up
hay. He has some corn which is rath-
er promising but for the most part
the corn crop in this section is not
good.

During the cloudburst this after
noon water ran down the alley along
side Of the P. & L. building, filling
one Of the areaways in front of the
first side window in the basement.

and tipped over the tall cigar and to-
bacco case which stood just in front
of the window. Several barrels of
water ran into the basement, causing
the manager Of the pool hall some in
convenience. A buttermilk jar and a
cider jar were broken and the stock
damaged slightly.
