 Whod to Companion

The positive identification of Will liam Gray, aged 27. of $50 Allen street. by Motorcycle Officer w. g. Stro1ls as the driver of an automo- bile on Stanley street about 4:lo yesterday afternoon, had more weight with Judge M. D. Sake in poltoe court today than the com- hinsd denials of Gray and Samuel Sanelli of Kensington. the court finding Gray guilty on the charge of operating an automobile while bis license was under suspension. lm- posing q fine of $100 and costs. Judge Saxe remarked that had the officers identification been made through . casual glimpse of the motorist in passing he would not be a ready to accept it as he was in view of the testimony. that the of- fcer actually saw Gray change places with Sanelli in the front seat. Gray took an appeal to su- perior court in t200 bonds.
 O6icsrs 6trolls testified that he was riding south in front of the State Normal school and Gray and Sanelli were riding in the opposite direction. Gray was driving. accord ing to the officer. but as the latter turned hts machine about and start cd tn pursuit. he looked through the rear window of the automobile and saw Gray get from behind the wheel and take sanelli's place. while Sa- nelu took up the drivers position. Overriding tho car near Wells street the officer asked Gray if his license was under suspension and the reply was affirmative. It developed that Sanelli did not have his license with him but Lieutenant Bamforth al- lowed him to go home and get it and did not charge him.
 ross-examtned by Judge W. F. Nangan, who represented Gray, Of hcer Strolls said he has known Gray for IS years and there was absolute ly no question that he was driving. When his motorcycle passed the automobile, there was not more than four feet space between them and he had . good view of the oc- cupants of the automobile. He was going about 20' miles an hour and Gray was driving at about the same speed.
 Gray testified that he had permits sion to leave . sewer construction job on which he was working for the public works department. to make . collection for a gift for an employe of the engineering depart ment who is to be married, and was returning from city hall when he was arrested. He lost his license four years ago, he said, and of late SaAellt has been driving his car. He was not aware that sanelli had left his license at home until the officer asked him to show 1t.

HUNT COLUMBUS TOMB
Evidence Found Pointing to Possi- bility Of Famous Explorer Having Been Buried tn Spain.

Badajox. Spain, Oct. 27 R-A commission sent by the academy of history to investigate what is claim ed by some to be the tomb of Chris topher Columbus at Oliva De Jerex. 45 miles south of Badajoz, reported today that there were traces in the church of Santa Maria Gracia indi- eating mementos of Columbus. The commission also stated that a num- Der of stones had been found with the inscription: Here lies Christo- pherus Sanchez Enriquez, grand ad- miral of the oceans and the lands by him discovered. Born 1%4l.
 VenriQuez is claimed by some to be the real name of Columbus.
 After the death of the discoverer his remains were sent to Santo Do- mingo and inferred in | monas- tery there. When Spain ceded the island of Santo Domingo to France in 17s5 . Spanish commission wal sent to remove the remains to Ha- vana. Some authorities claim tha, by mistake the committee took tc Havana the remains of Don Diego tho son of Columbus. and not the discoverer himself. They assert he is still buried in Santo Domingo. Other authorities say that the re- mains of Columbus were taken to Havana and later when Cuba was lost to Spain in the war with Amer ica. removed to Seville. Spain. and rest in the cathedral thers.

500 Sends McNutt on
Potato Seed Survey

H. A. McNutt. agricultural agent
for the 500 Line, now living IN
Bismarck, started for Oklahoma
Thursday evening to study the po-
tato condition in that state and to
get the results obtained by the
Southern growers from the use OF
North Dakota seed.
McNutt has during the last four
wears been closely associated with
the growers Of certified potato seed
in North Dakota. On the trip ne
will get information relative to the
requirements Of southern growers
for North Dakota grown seed.
Because of the rapid development
of notato disease in the low attitudes
and warm climates it is necessary
notato growers of gulf states buy
their seed from northern states ana
North Dakota has become promin-
emit as a seed producing area having
nroduced about three hundred cars
nf seed for Texas, Oklahoma and
Louisiana last year. With normal
cron this wear the state should pro-
dncc at least twice as much.
The areas producing seed potatoes
this wear under the supervision OF
the 500 Line Agricultural depart
ment are Darlington, Fordville, har-
vov Anamoose. Burlington. Leai'
Domrias and Van Hook. In add
t;on to this there are other points
where small projects are being trieG
for test plots to get the variety ana
treatment performance.

C0U RT RULES
ON LIABILITY
Stockholders in Closed Land
Bank Need Not Pay Double,
Decision

Milwaukee, May 25.-tT-Feder-
al Judge r. A. Geiger has held
illegal the double liability clause af-
fecting stockholders in federal land
banks and farm loan associations.
His decision, believed to be the first
adverse ruling against the govern
ment's regulatory provisions was
handed down, it was learned today
in the suit Of nine stockholders in
the bankrupt Wisconsin Bankers
Joint Stock Land bank of Milwau-
kee.
Judge Geigcr gave his decision
in upholding the demurrer Of the
stockholders to the 100 per cent as
sessment which the federal land
board in Washington had ordered
them to pay following failure of
the bank. The federal board had
levied an assessment of $1,200,000
on the 400 stockholders, principally
Wisconsin bankers, which is 100
per cent assessment on their hold
ings. A total of 100000 had al
ready been paid.
Judge Geiger's decision held that
the board had no legal right to levy
the 100 per cent assessment on the
stockholders and thereby held void
the double liability clause affecting
stockholders in land banks and
farm loan associations.

FUTURE SEEN
IN FORESTRY

uate Class of Eight; Tree
Culture Urged

Bottineau, N. D., May 25.-(R-
Although the state school of for.
estry here teaches subjects other
than those relating to the care of
trees, an effort is being made to
advance the forestry department
above all others, according to Presi-
dent F. +. Cobb.
Cobb sees in tree culture a
possibility for great benefit to the
state and believes that the industry
offers fertile field to young men,
Although the need for trees in a
prairie state like North Dakota is
admitted. comparatively few young
persons have the imagination to see
the possibilities for a man trained
in forestry in this state, Cobb said.
AS a result he is making an effort
to build up interest in the profess
sion Of forestry and the oppor-
tunities which the local school Of
fers to persons interested in it.
The forestry department this
year will graduate eight students,
five Of whom are from Bottineau.
They are; Byerg Benson and
Esther Freeman, both of Upham;
Christine M. Olson, Souris; Euince
HoIz, Harold Johnson, Arlene Nc
Balm. Otto Renning and Margaret
Weeks, all Of Bottineau.
