Marshall Gets
Deer On Missouri
Near Bismarck

Reuben Malshell of this city, who
spent about eight days hunting deer
along the Missouri river near Bis
marck, returned last Friday with a
big buck, which he exhibited proudly
for a few days and then started
dividing it up among his many friends.
He hunted in company with his
brother-in-law, Melvin Olson of near
Bismarck, in the Missouri river bot
toms between Bismarck and Wash
burn. During the first day 18 deer
were seen by the party Rueben was
with, and nine of them were killed.
There was about four inches of snow
on the ground, and while much of the
hunting was done by tracking, most
of the deer were gotten driving
Reuben estimates that about 80 deer
were killed in that territory during
his stay there. He himself hunted
for eight days before he was able
to get fair shot, and Mr.. Olson put
in seven days.

Goldberg, Says
Business Is At
Standstill In
Western Canada

j. Goldberg, who returned on Thurs
day of last week from Calgary, Alta,
where he. went two weeks before to
look after business matters connected
with a large furniture store in which
he owns a heavy interest, tells The
World that business conditions in the
Canadian northwest at the present
time appears to be even worse than
they are here. The Canadians are not
bothered any about railroad strikes or
shortagesof cars, but they have other
things to contend with that are even
worse. In the. Calgary country dur
ing the past few years the grain
crops were from medium. to small,
while in many places large tracts
were dried out. The yield the past
season was somewhat larger than it
had been for number of years, but
the market is low and farmers will
hardly be able to pay up obligations
contracted during the dry years, to
say nothing Of making improvements.
There are cars enough for everyone,
the railroads running under govern
men supervision, and the grain is
moving out fast, but business appears
to be at a standstill, people buying
only the absolute necessities of life.
The long wet spell which people in
this great Lake region had to con-
tend with during the past six weeks
did not reach as far west as Calgary,
according to Mr.. Goldberg, but the
roads in the vicinity of Winnipeg and
Brandon appeared to be just as bad as
they are here. During the time Mr.
Goldberg stayed at Calgary the wealth
er was fine every day, there being no
cloudy weather, and the roads were
dry everywhere. A large amount OF
live stock is raised on the ranches Of
in the vicinity Of Calgary, and while
the ranchers there were shipping out
trainlsads Of cattle they were receiv.
ing a very low price for them, much
lower than what is being paid here
and owing to the heavy duty imposed
by the U. S. government, the ranch.
ers cannot make their shipments to
Chicago like they did few years ago

G.. N. Sets Milling
In Transit Rate

Milling in transit privileges on in
trastate shipments Of grain at the
rate of 11s cents per 100 pounds,
have been announced by the Great
Northern railway, and the new tariff
will be issued within the next few
days. While the new stateowned
mill at Grand Forks will be the chief
beneficiary Of the new rate on ac-
count of the magnitude of its bust
ness, the mill here in Devils Lake as
well as all mills located on the Great
Northern will benefit on intrastate
shipments. Heretofore it had been
necessary for the local rate to be paid
on grain from the point of original
shipment to the mill, and another To-
cal rate from the mill to the final des-
tination.

splendid work that was done during

Carter an uncle of the convicted man,
who resides in Minneapolis, q trans
cript of the testimony introduced at
the trial, and the further steps in the
case depends to great extent on the
relatives attitude and whether he will
furnish the necessary finances. It is
understood to be fact that Carter's
uncle is quite wealthy, and that he
furnished most of the funds for the
defense of the accused man, in addi-

The dead body of Mrs. Carl NJ. john
son of Alamo, N. D., was found yes
terday afternoon in the tall weeds at
a point just north of the city dump
ground by some boys who Immediately
notified Chief of Police Timboe, who
after viewing it identified it as that
of Mrs. johnson, who disappeared
from the Colonial hotel here on We'd
nesday afternoon of last week.
The dead woman was lying on her
back when found and there was foam
at her mouth indicating that she died
in convulsions. Her cap was under
her, and her pocketbook containing
about 500 in cash was in her coat
pocket.
Mrs. johnson came to Devils Lake
on Wednesday afternoon of last week
with her husband and as the woman
was not feeling very we'll, the couple
decided to spend the night here. Their
home is on farm near Alamo in Will
liams county. The woman had been
in poor helath for some time, and it
was decided to take her to Rochester
where she could receive the best medi-
cal treatment, and undergo an opera
tion if necessary. On their arrival
here Mr.. and Mrs. johnson registered
at the Colonial hotel. They were as
signed to their room, and Mrs. john
son followed the bell boy out and left
the building. For time her husband
paid no attention to the matter, but
as she did not return he went out to
look for her. Not being able to find
her he notified police headquarters
and local authorities spent several
days searching for her, but without
success.
AS she could not be found here Mr..
Johnson left for Neville, N. D., think
ing that she might have gone there
to visit an aunt. He did not return
since that time and Chief of police
Timboe was Of the opinion that he
found his wife there until the dead
body was found here yesterday. The
woman was 80 years old, and during
the past four years had made her
home with her husband on the farm
six miles northwest of Alamo.

known until report is received from
that institution. Mr.. Johnson, the
woman's husband, was located at Far
go this morning, and he is coming
up tonight ON No. /. The remains
have been prepared for shipment to

shirley TO GO
INTO. CIGAR MAX
ING BUSINESS

w. o. Shirley of Devils Lake, who
for a number of years has been con-
.ducting very successful insurance
business here, has formed a partner
ship with Ole Bodelson Of Cando, for
the purpose of establishing modern
and up-date cigar factory here. The
firm has purchased the equipment and
good will from Max Liedl, who for
some months has been making several
brands of cigars here which have
proven very popular among all who
have used them, and has leased rooms
in the basement of the Glerum block
for the workmen and office. Several
new expert cigar. makers will arrive
in a few days to work in the ne8
place, and much new equipment will
be added to that used in the past by
Mr.. Leidl. The transfer of the fact
ory property here must receive the
approval of the collector of internal
revenue, and as soon as this approval
is received the new firm will conf
mence doing business. Mr.. Liedl,
whose work has proven entirely salts
factory to all who have smoked his
cigars in the past, will remain here
in the employ of the new firm, and
his brands will be continued together
with several new ones which will De
added Immediately.
Both Mr.. Shirley and Mr.. Bodelson
ARE we'll known and very popular all
over the Lake region, are business
men of more than ordinary ability,
and we cannot see any reason why
their cigars, mape from the best
materials by expert workmen, should
not be used almost exclusively thru
ont this section of the state. The
several brands which will be put on
the market are intended to satisfy the
taste Of every smoker, and every ef-
fort will be made to get all smokers
to use the Devils Lake brands in pre-
ference to all others.

TO REMODEL THE
BOSl loN STORE

Immediately after the first Of the
year the Boston Store Of this city, of
which j. Glickson is proprietor, will be
remodeled, the interior rearranged,
and many new fixtures will be install
led, all Of which make the place much
more attractive,give more room for
waiting customers, and at the same
time have more room in which to con.
veniently and attractively display the
merchandise carried in stock.
A stock reducing sale will be put on
at this store commencing this week
and lasting until after the change is
made in the store. During this time
Mr.. Glickson expects to dispose of
most of the stock Of clothing, shoes
and furnishings he has on hand, and
when the new fixtures are installed
and the store rearranged he expects
to be able to be doing business with
an entirely new stock. The change
will be such that old customers of the
place will hardly know it, but they
cannot help but appreciate the better
service that Mr.. Glickson will be able
to give, and the larger and more va1i-
ed stock that he will be able to carry
under the new arrangement.
Mr.. Glickson started the Boston
store in 1914 in small way, as his
capital was limited at the time. Right
from the start he handled quality mer-
chandise, and it was not long before
people here learned that they could
depend upon mercandise he sold, and
his patronage had reached quite large
proportions only short time after he
had gotten established. Since that
time his trade has been continu ,usly
on the increase, and he numbers many
customers from long distances who
come here several times a year to buy
their clothing and furnishings. The
Boston Store is pretty well known
throughout the Lake Region as a
place where only quality merchandise
is sold, and where every article bought
is guaranteed to be as represented.
Standard lines like the Stein Bloch
and Clothcraft clothes, W. L. Doug
las shoes, and others, known the coun-
try over, are carried in large enough
varieties so customer can find ex-
actly what he desires. New styles are
stocked here almost Immediately af-
ter tey are issued, and in all cases
just as soon as they are in theTwin
Cities, and patrons of the place can
always depend upon getting the very
latest in both materials and cuts.
The sale now being on at the Bos-
ton Store is one that is bound to at
tract considerable attention, and one
which is sure to move lot of goods.
Prices are reduced on practically
everything in the store, and the mer-
chandise is all clean and up-to-date.

MOTHER

Sunday is Mothers Day. 1t will be
celebrated throughout all the nation.
1t should be day of greater than GUS
tomary reverence, with men and
women become, in their thoughts, as
little children again, paying tribute to
mothers still alive and glorifying the
sacred memory of those passed on from
mortal vale.
An Oregon poet has paid a wonder
full tribute to motherhood. In his
ssThe Mothers of Men, Joaquin Miller
says:
''The bravest battle that ever was
fought;
Shall tell you where and whenY
On the maps of the world you'll find
it not;
1t was fought by the mothers of men. "
Get that poem and read it through,
and Sunday, if Mother be far away,
remember her with a message and a
gift. You are still her little girl or
her little boy. You can never repay
for the sacrifices she made, but little
acts of thoughtfulness will be cher
ished by her and held sacred-beyond
price. If she be gone, remember.
The remembrance will spur you to a
nobler feeling and sweeten the day for
yourself and others.
