and his craftsmanship is the more re-
markable because he shoots left handed,
resting the forestock of his gun over his
right arm-or what is left of it.
He had the misfortune of losing his right
arm below the elbow good many years
ago in a sawmill accident, which forced
him to give up farming and take to hotel
keeping. Dana Stafford is good hunter
and fisherman, and runs farm in Brat
tleboro. Three weeks ago, just by way
of giving the people in the back towns a
treat, he hired an airplane which was TAX
ing passengers up at Brattleboro, and for
an hour flew over Wardsboro, Stratton
and Jamaica, dropping a letter to Mr..
Wilder. his fellow huntsman
The bear was young one and weighed
something near 200 pounds. He was
caught in a trap which Mr.. Wilder had
set. and the two men found him there
and shot him. The pelt, which is fine
one, is being cured at Brattleboro

DAKOTA JUSTICE DIssENTs.
Says Scandinavian American Ban
Case Not Properly Tried.

BISMARCK, N. D., Nov. 4-Lack of
proper trial was the ground on which JUS
tice Luther Birdzell of the state supreme
court, in minority opinion, filed here
yesterday, dissents from the majority YER
dict of the supreme court, handed down
Oct. q, in which state officials were per-
manently enjoined from conducting an
examination of the Scandinavian meri-
can bank of Fargo and in which the ma
jority of the supreme court held that the
Fargo bank was solvent. Justice Birdzell
said:
1T is to be hoped that the condition of
the bank is such as to justify the reopen
ing which closely followed the announce
ment of the majority opinion. Possibly
an immediate trial on the merits might
have given added assurance as to the cor
rcctness of the findings, which are now
based on a showing only sufficient for a
prima facie case required for temporary
Injunction. [ can only regard the final
judgment as being void for lack of a trial
conducted in accordance with due process
of law

TRAP INTERPRETED
WITH BEARS PLANS
Started from Wardsboro to Meet Hunt
ers, but Couldn't Get Through
Kern Adams indicated

The Boston Globe this morning pub
lished a picture Of a bear trapped by Bert
Wilder and Dana Stafford, together with
a picture of John II. Kelaghan OF Will
mington and two others. In connection
with the picture was the following story
under a Wardsboro dateline:
Doubling Thomases still continue to
ask about that bear which the great drive
at White Hill failed to get last Saturday.
The Globe correspondent sent word that
the bear had tried to meet the party,
but was trapped on the way, though he
got as far as Wardsboro To settle all
doubts, John II. Kelaghan of Whining
ton had his photograph taken with the
bear and two friends of the bear.
He then undertook to photograph the
bear with Bert Wilder proprietor of the
Wardsboro House, and Dana Stafford Of
Brattleboro, the men who actually got the
bear Mr. Kelaghan, however, was not
a photographer and the pictures were fail
ures Mr. Wilder was fuzzy, Mr.. Stafford
was fuzzy and the bear was a mere dark
spot between them.
The other pictures serve, however, to
settle the question of whether there was
a Wardsboro bear and clears utterly the
reputation of Kern Adams, the Brattle-
boro man whose press agenting started l35
hunters out on Saturday morning on a
bearless bear hunt.
Mr.. Stafford and Mr. Wilder are well
known hunters in Wndham county This
is their sixth bear in three years. Last
year they got three and there is still time
this year to equal that record Mr.
Wilder has got great many deer also
