COMMUNITY FAIR AT
IUND'S INSTEAD OF VOLT

The Community fair which is
to be held next Tuesday, Oct. A,
jointly by the Volt, Benrud and
Wide Awake communities will be
held at the Nels Lund farm in
stead of right at Volt as was an
nounced last week. The Lund
farm is five miles north and a
mile and a half east of Volt.
The afternoon will be devoted
to sports, races and baseball.
There will be motion pictures the
early part of the evening and a
dance in Nels Lund's barn in the
evening. The majority of farm
ers have finished threshing and it
is expected that there will be a
large crowd to attend the commun-
ity fair 1t is hoped that a goodly
number will go out from Wolf
Point. This was a fine year for
gardens and crops and everyone
will enjoy the exhibits as well as
the program of sports which will
take up the afternoon.
It is probable that good many
people will bring picnic lunches
with them, starting early in orden
that they may have plenty of time
to view the exhibits before the
afternoon program.

HARTE WELL NUMBER z
PROVES TO Be A GUSHER

The most sensational recent oil
development in the Kevin-Sun-
burst field is the bringing in by
the Hannah-Porter company OF a
gusher known as the Harte well
No in the Wilcox pool. The
force of the crude oil was so great
that it shot to the top of the drill
house and tore off the roof. There
has not been opportunity for an
accurate test but it is said that
the new we'll is estimated at 1000
barrels per day
Several local men are interested
in the Hannah-Porter company
and it is reported on good authori-
ty that a local man will soon be
elected to the board of directors.
1t is also given out, semi-officially,
that the stock of the company will
either be withdrawn from the
market or quoted at a higher
figure.

CAUGHT IN MIN0T
CONFESS GLENTANA ROBBERY
AND SEVERAL OTHERS
MURDER CHARGED

MINOT, N. D., Sept. 27.-Oni-
cials at Glasgow, Mont, who would
like to obtain custody of Lester
and Donald Barge and Richard
Brumfield on charges of robbing
a bank at Glentana a few days
ago, probably will have to wait
until charges against the trio are
disposed of in North Dakota They
have been so informed by Sheriff
W. e. Slaybaugh, of Minot, who
caught the trio, and who has OBJ
tanned from Brumfield an alleged
confession admitting the burglariz-
ing of the GIentana bank and
banks at Wheelock and Gascoyne,
N. d., and Taylor and Hamlet,
Neb.
Lester is held under heavy
guard in the county jail at Willis
ton, charged with the killing of
cashier H. N. Peterson of the
Wheelock bank year ago, and
Donald Barge and Brumfeld also
are charged with a more recent
attempt to burglarize the Wheel
ock bank, but they are beng helc
in Minot while officials decide as
to which county has the best claim
to the two.
Brumfield told the sheriff that
the Glentana bank yielded about
$500, and said that the total of
five bank robberies in which he
was involved produced only $500.

LONDON, March 9.-The Prince
of Wales is greater as a sportsman
than, he is great in sport. He plays
games and hunts with intense en-
thusiasm, often with disquieting
recklessness, but he is not an expert
at any game.
More important than his skill, how
ever, is his splendid spirit in athletic
competition. He always tries to do
well, but he places craftsmanship
above Individual triumph, and he Is
a good loser. He is loved as the
sporting prince because he so admir-
ably typifies the English code OF
sport for sports sake.
H. R. H. is chiefly celebrated
abroad for his falling to the
hounds" but this impression OF his
riding is unfair because it does not
do him credit. Riding is his favorite
sport and this season he has been
hunting an average of twice week.
His record at Melton, Mowbray,
where he usually hunts. Is better
than that of many recognized fine
horsemen, but his trouble Is that
every time he takes a tumble the
spill goes reverberating around the
world. What often escapes his crit
Use is his pluck in leapfng to his feet
and chasing his mount across the
field in order to continue the hunt.

DEAF PEDDLER
ROBS GROCER
Police Seek Mute and Two
Other HoId-up Men.
9, 1927

A man posing as deaf mute and
selling lead pencils, committed rob-
berry late Tuesday and is still at
large today, police said.
Abraham Aziz, grocer at 3709 Mas
aachusetts Ave-, told Patrolman Ed
Ball that the man came in, sold a
pencil and then motioned for Aziz
to look at picture on the wall. Aziz
said he turned and gazed at the pic
ture, and the mute seized SO that
Aziz was counting on the counter
and ran out the door.
Two men held up E. f. Robson,
629 E. Twenty-Fifth St., Tuesday as
he was putting his auto in his ga
rage at 242S Broadway, and took
$50 watch. His description of the
two lead police to believe they are
the bandits who staged a number OF
hold-ups on the north side recently.
- William Carson, SAG Abbott ST.,
told police he had talked with sew
eral persons as he walked along
Kentucky Ave, and was unable to
tell when some one took $54 from his
pocket.

fear OF them. He tackles all OBJ
stacles and takes great chances. If he
comes. a cropper he offers no ex-
cuses, but is keener than ever for
the hunt. Many attempts have been
made to restrain him, but in riding
his will is firm. In 1924 the question
OF his riding was taken up in Com
mons and it was there stated that
1.-THE nation views with apprehen-
sion the manner in which he exposes
himself to danger, and trusts that
his royal father will exercise upon
him an appropriate measure of re-
straint." For a time Edward cur
tailed his riding, but he refused to
be persuaded to abandon the sport.
Relies OH Experts
The prince keeps seventeen hunt
ers at Melton Mowbray, but in buy
ing horses he always asks the advice
of experts. In tumbles at various
times he has broken both shoulder
blades, sprained a wrist and an
ankle and has been kicked hard in
the face, but his morale is higher
than ever His riding is no joke to
him and he feels that the popular
reaction to his losses is not sport
ing.
The Prince has played the games
of many peoples in many lands. He
has very keen on pig-sticking in
India, but he did not like tiger hunt
ing as it was introduced to him in
India, because he was taken on a
state hunt, with a ring of elephants
protecting him. and this was not
what he regarded as sport He likes
lots of action and wants to take
chances. He shares with many
young men of his age the restless
ness that is a heritage of the war,
and he finds an outlet in exciting
sport.

CONSTIPATION MADE
BOY AN Invalid
Parents say Milks Emulsion gave re-
lief. Gaining weight and strength.

"Our 15-year old boy hadn't been
strong since he was 9 years old,
when he had whooping cough and
scarlet fever. He had constipation
terribly. The only thing that would
give relief was injections of warm
water, and finally we used olive oil
injections.
Last August we started giving
him Milks Emulsion. After taking
three bottles, he hasn't to this day
had to have another injection. lie
gees to school every day, eats his
Emulsion right along, and is gaining
weight and doing fine. We can't
praise Milks Emulsion enough, and
will be glad to tell other parents
just what it las done for our boy"
Mr.. and Mrs. Jim Williams, Route
8, Kellerton, Iowa.
Milks Emulsion restores health,
natural bowel action, doing away
with all need Of pills and physics. 1t

the digestive organs in shape to as
simulate food, thus building f1eeh

we'll, but he prefers to hunt or play
polo.
when 1 get older and cannot
hunt as do now, I shall probably
take UP shooting seriously" he once
explained. If he does he will have
to improve to equal his father. The
king is one of the best guns in the
country.
Best at Squash Rackets
Edwards best game is squash
rackets. When he is in town he
plays daily, usually in the morning
to set him up for the day. Also he
greatly delights in running. He is
an early riser and often, clad in a
sweater and running shorts, he will
be in the palace gardens by seven
o'clockf running around briskly and
linbering up.
But Edward is happiest where
horses are concerned. He first took
up riding seriously at oxford, and
since then it has been a craze with
him. Hunting is his chief joy in life.
He loves polo, and sometimes plays
very creditable game, but he lacks
the weight and strength to be ex-
pert. He does not get much time to
play, but he is ambitious of improv-
ing his form.
IT shall go to India one day again
when 1 can," he remarked to a
friend. 1T is Just one vast polo
ground, and want to play we'll"
The prince is very fine rider on
the flat, but he is an Indifferent
steeplechaser. Critics who study his
riding from the horseman's point of
view say that he does not possess
the horseman's hands. His grip is
also faulty, and he is frequently seen
taking fences too far out of the sad
die. But he is dead game. He rides
the most spirited hunters and has no
