A Limerick boy was out hunting
the other day when suddenly shots
began to fall around him. Realizing
that he was evidently being taken
for deer, he dropped to the ground
and crawled along the stonewall, call
ing out at the same time. The
brave hunters didn't even stop to
see if any of their bullets took eff
feet, but fled incognito, in their au-
tomobiles.

Burglars Raid
H0ople Garage

Hoople, N. D., Nov. burglars
who entered the N. c. Olson garage
here about four o'clock this morning
escaped with only handful of silver
looted from the cash register, the
ring of the machine attracting the at
tention of the night Waterman who
gave pursuit to the men as they
sprang from the rear window through
which they had entered.
With only flashlight to aid him
the Waterman was at disadvantage
in the chase and seven bullets fired
in the direction :of the retreating
forms apparently went wide of their
mark.
An examination this morning indi-
Gated that the burglars were novices,
as their method of opening the cash
register was apparently cumbersome
and it is believed that they spent an
hour in the building. A number of
tires were taken from the racks and
placed near the rear door, the robbers
evidently intended to take these with
them for use in emergency.
AS the men took northerly direc-
ton from here it is thought they may
have been from the Canadian side Of
the line.

Mohall Farmer Buries
Wife Under Straw Pile

Mohall, N. D., Nov. In Mohall
today, and about the countryside,
they are talking vaguely Of an investi-
cation.
Alone on his farm, few miles from
the village, stumbling numbly, about
his chores is John Thomasson, 65 years
old, the object of the towns attention.
A week ago Sunday something
snapped in the brain of John Tomas
son, and then ended the conscious
struggle against poverty and prairie
lonliness which for twenty years he
and his wife had fought together.
1t came when his wife refused to
waken to another day Of the same
drab humdrum that had been her lot
for more than a score of years.
"She wouldn't follow me to church"
were Tomassons words in the village
that morning when asked the where
abouts of his wife.
Neighbors called to solve the mean
ing of his words. They found Mrs.
Tomasson lying dead in her bed.
They asked when he wanted the
funeral. He only shook his head
The neighbors left to return again
next day. The body of the woman
was gone. The Sheriff and the coro-
ner were called. They showed the
badges of their Office and Tomasson
led them to shallow grave hidden
by scattered straw.
II only had II cents,' he explained
as they exhumed the rude pine box
containing the woman's body.
The town board bought a new coffin
There was regular burial service at
the town cemetery.

Tractors Are Equipped
With Electric Lights
For Flowing at NIGHT

A few farmers in the vicinity of
Grand Forks are trying out the prac-
tice of night blowing, according to re-
ports received here. By this method
they are enabled to utilize the "a hours
of the day for the work, practically
assuring them of having fall blowing
completed before heavy frosts come.
Those who are doing night blowing
have equipped their tractors with
strong head lights at the front and
rear which throw wide beams of light.
The lights are supplied with current
from a special battery carried on the
tractor.

Several postmasters in this section
of the state are complaining about the
failure of their patrons to call for C.
0. D. packages, which is causing the
office force no end of trouble. Such
packages in many towns are filling a
large portion of the postoffice, and
make the room look more like ware
house than an Office 1t seems that
many people are in the habit of buy
ing very freely during the summer
months from agents and various firms
in the east who make G. o. D. ship
ments, and although postmasters pro-
rnptly notify the buyers, q. large
number of them fail to come after the
stuff. Wooden goods and clothing
seem to make up big majority OF
the shipments, and the charges range
all the way from a few dollars tc
$125.

tomorrow. He speaks at Oberon at

at Esmond at 500 p. m. He will be
accompanied by the league legislative
candidates. Mr.. Townley took abb
solutely no part in the campaign
, prior to the recall election a year
, ago, and seemed to rejoice in the fact
that Lemke and his men were unable
to conduct successful campaign in
| the state without his help. Mr.. Town
ley has been on the job continuously
since last spring in organization work,
and if he is successful in putting the
League back in power after the
other fellows let it go to the bad
through mismanagement. We'll be
ready to take off our hat to him.
| He is without doubt one of the best
organizers on the American contn-
ent today, and if he can't put the
| League back in power in this state,
it simply can't be done. He has done
his best during the past seven months,
and if he doesn't win. there is no
use for anyone else trying in the
future.

ADJUSTMENTS
LYRIC SHOW OFFERS FIVE
 n
By EstelIe Bethea MarIOw'


 The Paramount Four, who top the bill at the Lyric for the first halt of the week, with their Typical Topical Tunes" are four young men, possessed of excellent voices whose harmony is excellent, whose solos are more than well received. and who provide a streak of clean humor.
 Chris Chisholm and Viola Breen, who present Happy Hollow have a vehicle that is exceptionally well adapted to their individual talents. There is an underlying vein of pathos in their skit that serves to magnify it's latent humor, and the artists make the most of it. Paul Nevine and Ed Guhl, "In Cork" are about the greatest addition to the comedy side of the bill. From beginning to end, their act is fraught with comedy that sets the house in a roar and keeps 1t there.
 The Murray sisters, Katherine and Evahgeline, present repertoire of clever songs, some good dancing, and some real close harmony in their opening duet. The spectacular is provided by the "Aeroplane Girls" whose act is indeed unique. There are the usual screen attractions.
