Thieves Steal 13 Guns at Berthoid

Berthold Tribune: Yeggs who
"iimmied" the back door Of John Nc,
Queens gun shop last night secured
seven repeating rifles, one pump shot
gun, five revolvers and a quantity OF
ammunition. The thieves evidently
were possessed of a fancy for repeat
ing arms as they cast aside all single
shot guns. Mr.. Mcqueen estimates
his loss at about $500. The robbery
was discovered this morning when ne
entered the place and found everything
in disorder. The back door was wide
open, having been forced by an iron
bar. The police authorities in all the
surrounding towns have been notified
and the thieves, no doubt, will soon
be apprehended. It is believed by
some that the wobblies in the Minot

young tick is almost certain to con-
tract fatal illness. When one is
taken i'll with spotted fever, he comes
down with chills and fever and the
entire body is paralyzed. The vic
tins usually linger from two to nine
months. Five doctors have given up
their lives in research work, one Of
| them coming from the Rockefeller
Foundation At present two doctors
are conducting laboratory at Hamil-
ton, Mont, trying to work out a REM
edy for battling with the disease and
| in eradicat ting the pests. The small
animals that carry the ticks are being
killed. For some unexplainabie rea-
son, the disease has been confined ex-
clusively to that portion of the coun-
try west of the river. Two promin-
ent Missoula citizens contracted the
disease during the summer. The
ticks are usually found on moutain
sheep in numbers ranging from 200 to
1900
DR.. Beeler told several choice stor--
les. Chas. Fairfield, Rotarian
from Rutland, VT, who is in the state

quencies in payment of fam loans

days.
Prof. E. S. Chandler. Of the state
university. gave some interesting data
concerning Mouse river that not many
who live in Minot have ever known.
The university has been keeping
record of the number of gallons of
water that have flowed down the river
for the past 20 years. At the present
time, 100000 gallons per day are
flowing past given point in Minot.
During the food in 1904, 5000 million
gallons went down the stream daily.
Prof. Chandler stated that it might be
we'll to consider what can be done
to prevent damage from high water
which is sure to come at intervals
The time to fix roof is in dry wealth
er, he said.
Dr.. J. L. Devine and Dr.. NJ Fardy,
the latter coming to Minot recently
to become associated with the former,
were guests. DR.. Fardy stated that
he had been given all kinds of advice
about how to deport himself when
coming to Minot, by people who were
familiar with the city in the early
days. He likes Minot very we'll and
says this city is very we'll advertised
thruout the east.

A FREQUENT CAUSE OF FIRES

Overheated cook stoves and fur
uaces cause many fires at this time
Of the year. This peril is created
not merely by efforts to force a fire
for heating purposes on a cold day,
but even more by carelessness with
drafts. Many people will open wide
all drafts and hampers of a stove or
heater, and then forget all about it
and leave the house or go to bed.
If a chimney has a good draft, a
tremendously strong air current is
sweeping through that stove of heat,
and a smoke pipe may become red
hot. If any wood touches the same,
it is likely to catch fire. If people
are in the house and awake they
usually smell an overheated condi-
ton, and take care of it. But if
they have left the place, or have
gone to sleep, the situation is a per-
ilous one,

FARMERS MUST NOT eco IT
ALONE"

Farmers in Bourbon County, as
elsewhere, are slowly coming to see
that not every one of them can 90 it
alone, and that what they need more
than anything else, more than new
legislation, or easier and cheaper
bank loans, is the same spirit of mu-
tual cooperation that makes their So
called oppressors, the middlemen, SO
powerful. And another thing that
farmers are beginning to see a little
more clearly than they have in the
past is that they must stand by each
other, even when it is temporarily un-
profitable. Though they have not
everywhere begun to use it effective
ly, farmers are beginning to see that
they really have the whip hand. The
farmers of sterile little Denmark
have made themselves famous and
rich with their butter and cheese and
eggs and pork products, which bring
the very top prices throughout the
world, simply by pulling all together
and staying with it. The Cooperative
Associations that have done so much
for the Pacific coast and for Florida
are being copied more and more all
the time.

Massachusetts,, Illinois, Washington,
Connecticut, Idaho, Arizona, South
Dakota, Virginia and Utah have
closed seasons on angling as con-
servative measure. The best fishing
grounds in America to-day are found
within these States. Is this not sufti-
cient proof that closed season dur
ing the spawning season is neces-
sary in order to save our streams
from becoming bare of fish?
Similar laws in Kentucky would
make men good-natured. The "fish-
hog" even would wear smile and
be forgiven. Yes, all of us would be
better prepared to appreciate and
enjoy the wonderful nature our Gre
ator provided for us in the great
outdoors. w. c. G..

EAST AND WEST CLASH IN RAG.
ING DATES

Colonel Matt J. VIM general man
ager of the Kentucky Jockey Club,
has been in the east comforting with
representatives of the Maryland
Jockey club owners of the Pimlico
track, for the purpose of averting a
clash in the running of the two rich
est events for three-year-old thoro-
breds in the country, the Kentucky
Derby and the >Preakness Stakes. 1t
appears that the Pimlico meeting is
scheduled to close on May 13 and
that it has been the custom to run
the Preakness on the closing after
noon. If the rule of running that
classic on the last day is followed
the Preakness and the Derby will con-
f1ict, as May ID is the date set for
Kentucky's big turf event. Horse
men are supporting Colonel Winn in
effort to avert the clash.

BONUS BILL IN THE HOUSE

The House Of Representatives ap-
pears eager to pass the soldiers
bonus bill, but no end of difficulty
is being experienced in devising
ways and means to meet the pay
ments it provides for. The bill, as
it stands, is loaded with plans for
levying money, that are Of the most
unpopular sort. 1t is freely stated
in Washington that the House bill
will be so obnoxious when it gets to
the Senate that the latter body will
be obliged to kill it, ION general
principles" Supporters of the meas
ure, before the House, appear to
fallen down lamentably in popular
izing the money-raising provisions of
the bill.
