WILLIAM DRUMMER
Held WITHOUT BAIL
Charged With Murder Of Marie Wick at
Fargo on June May Be Tried at
Term Of Court Opening July 10.

William GUNNER, night clerk at the
Prescott hotel in Fargo, charged with
the murder of Marie Wick, of Grygla,
Marshall county, Mimi, on the night Of
June 81, was committed to the Cass
county jail without bail until the next
term of district court, by Justice J. II.
Bingham, Of Fargo, after q sensational
preliminary hearing that lasted for
four days last week.
1 States Attorney Vim. G. Green ably
conducted the .examinat ton for the state
and by powerful array of circumstan-
tial evidence, damaging admissions and
conflicting stories told by 4 GUNNER,
proved that there was probable cause
to believe that he committed the crime.
Mr.. Green IS Marshall county boy, q
graduate Of the Warren high school,
and the son of Representative r. A.
Green, of Stephen. It is a singular co
Incidence that it should fall to his lot
to prosecute the murderer Of the pure,
innocent girl from Marshall county.
Immediately after the preliminary
hearing the coroner's jury, which was
empaneled Immediately following the
discovery of the murder and had assist
ed the authorities in part Of the in
vestigation made at the hotel on the
morning Of the crime, resumed it's sit
ting, and according to it's finding Will
liam Gummer is blamed for the brutal
murder of Miss Wick. The verdict of
the eoroner's jury reads that marie
Wick came to her death on the seventh
day of June, 1921, in room 80 in the
Prescott hotel, in Fargo, N. D., by rea-
son of having been choked, strangled
and struck upon the head with fire
nozzle; that her killing was felonious.
following rape, and said rape and MUIR
der were committed by William Gum
mer, according to evidence presented,
and to the best Of our Knowledge
A term of district court for the trial
Of criminal cases will probably open in
Fargo on July g., when accused will
be brought to .Ifor one of the most
heinous and u olical crimes ever
committed in t.rsrg TIE of North Dakota,
The damaging ,astimony against
GUNNER at the hearing was introduced
by States Attorney Green, who took
the witness stand and for about two
hours read the stenograp hic report of
an examinat Ton to which the night clerk
was subjected on June IA, before his

FOR BETTER
BABIES TO BE WAGED
Reduction of Infant Mortality in Mar
shall County Will Be Object
Of Drive.

A campaign for better babies in Mar
shall county is about to be formulated.
During the year 1920, 574 babies were
born in the county. Many Of these died
for want of proper food. In one town
ship record the county nurse found SIX
successive deaths to be those Of infants.
Such a toll is unwarranted.
Breast feeding is the birthright Of
every baby, vet too many mothers, Tor
slight reasons and too often upon the
suggestion Of well-meaning but ignorant
neighbors, change to bottle feeding. NO
baby should be deprived OF Its ready
made food which nature has provided
without sufficient cause. Only ply
stefan can determine the need Tor a
change Of diet Consequently an at
tempt will be made to carry the gospel
of breast feeding to the mother Of every
baby born during the .Tear 20 tie coun-
ty. u. ). rs I. .
The method used will be similar to
that Of the Infant Welfare Society Of
Minneapolis, where excellent results
have been obtained. Contact with
each baby will be maintained until the
baby is nine months OF age. Circulars
will be sent to the mother to be Tiled
out by her, relative to the baby's feed
ing and returned to the Office OF the
county nurse. Visits will also be made
where possible. Conferences for the
mothers will be planned, and it ts to
be hoped that baby clinics, where the
mothers may have the opportunity OF
securing the advice of ply icians, can
be had. Cooperation from clubs and
societies, such as the Women's clubs and
ladies' aids OF the various churches,
etc, will be sought. Better Babies is
everybody's Business

CROPS AND THE WEATHER

The unprecedented warm and dry
weather last week threatened to play
havoc with the crops, and In many
localities, especially where the soil is
light, considerable damage is reported.
But the generous downpour Of rain Sat

Tuesday this week, came just In the
nick of time and saved the situation.
No rust has been reported thus far.
The outlook now is splendid, In fact, a
good crop Is practically assured.
