F. GREEN HOME
VOLT, BURNED
COOK RANGE SPARK CAUSE,
HOUSE AND CONTENTS
TOTAL LOSS

The farm residence of Fremont
Green, north of Volt, was com
pletely destroyed by fire late Mon
day afternoon, together with all
its contents. Mr.. Green was seen
in town Wednesday when he was
buying a new household outfit
He said Mrs Green baked bread
that afternoon and had had a hot
fire for that purpose. Having fin
ished her task she went from the
house to a nearby cook car for
about fifteen minutes and when
attention was next called to the
house it was a mass of flames.
Mr.. Green said be believed that
spark or coal had fallen out of
the front of the stove and ignited
something on the floor. Monday
was a very windy day and the
frame house was quickly con-
sumed.
Mr.. Green said the value of the
1Sx24 house was not great but
that they had large amount of
belongings in it, including fruni-
ture, supplies, clothing and bed
ding. There was no insurance.
Mr. Green is an extensive farmer
and has harvested some splendid
crops of wheat in recent years.

TRACTOR DROPS
OFF sc. BRIDGE
BOB STEFFENSON'S LIVELY
EXPERIENCE CROSSING
SAND CREEK

A tractor pulling a road drag
and driven, by Bob Steffenson,
went off the bridge across Sand
Creek on the Sand Creek road
one day last week. The tractor
dropped 20 feet. Mr.. Steffenson
says the reason of the accident
was the breaking OF bolt in the
steering gear which left him with
no control of the machine. He
was right on the bridge when he
discovered his dilema and did
some rapid climbing. He got off
the tractor onto the grader and
back onto the tractor, and just
before it fell off he made his es-
cape uninjured onto the bridge.
The surprising part of the ac-
cident was that after the tractor,
a Hart-Parr, was gotten out it re-
quired only about $40 repairs to
make it good and the company
stood the expense.

BAD CHECK COUNT
r REARRESTED ON 2 POPLAR
CHARGES, HELD HERE
IN COUNTY JAIL

Walt, or Walton, Lynch was
brought before Justice Geringer
Thursday forenoon for trial on
charge of issuing a worthless
check, Wilbur White being the
complainant. The case was first
filed in Justice Gordon's court, but
an affidavit of prejudice was filed
and application for change of
venue made by Lynch's attorney
j. K. Bramble.
The ground of the defense was
that the letter of the law had not
been complied with in the matter
of giving Lynch notice and five
days in which to make good the
amount of the check. In his re-
marks the justice said that he
believed that the letter of the law
should be complied with and
granted the motion of Attorney
Bramble to dismiss the case. Ar
lie M. Foor, county attorney, pro-
secuted the case.
Sheriff Anderson and Deputy
Seglias were present and Lynch
was re-arrested at the door of the
city hall where the trial was held
on two charges preferred by citi-
zens of Poplar. Chris Jenson and
R. E. Patch. Deputy Seglias took
Lynch back to Jail and in the af-
.ernoon he was taken to Poplar
where he was arraigned before
Justice Fred Turner and held for

each charge. Bonds not being

IMMORTAL BOOK
ON THE SCREEN

In all the history of literature
no work has achieved the sensa
tional, universal popularity as that
attributed to Uncle Toms Cabin, -
save the Bible. From 1852, when
the novel by Harriet Beecher
Stowe first startled an entire
world, it has run into literally
thousands of editions.
II has been translated into
every known language and dialect
on the face of the earth, as well
as copied into the Braille, the
printed language of the blind.
Even today, rs years after pub
lication, Uncle Toms Cabin" en-
enjoys supremacy in the literary
world envied by both budding and
established authors. From the
quantity-production, rough-paper,
5-and-10-cent store editions to the
de luxe, leather-bound gift copies,
fortunes are still being made from
the sale of the book.
On the stage, Uncle Toms
Cabin" has appeared in every
known variety of presentation.
Tent show. wagon show. stock
company, repertoire, tabloid, bur
lesque, drama, comedy-all have
played tom" shows. Back in
1901, in Des Moines, Iowa, Uncle
Toms Cabin" was presented in
operate form, for just one per
formance 1t was not a success,
due to unforeseen financial diff
culties. but it quite rounded out
the gamut of varieties of stage
production.
Recently, radio station KGBS,,
in New York, broadcast Uncle
Toms Cabin" as a radio play. 1t
brought thousands of appreciative
responses from fans thousands of
miles distant
To cap the climax. the most pre-
tentious offering of the immortal
novel in the history of the drama
will have its gala motion picture
premiere Thursday and Friday at
the Liberty Theatre. This widely
heralded production, costing 81
100000 and having taken almost
two years to film, is expected to
make screen history, being one OF
the most stupendous motion pic
lures ever to have reached Wolf
Point.

INDIAN SHOOTS
SELF IN HEAD, DIES
ALBERT KENNEDY SUICIDES
AT HOME OF FATHER
IN-LAW

County Attorney A NJ. Foor and
Coroner ]. Montgomery were call
ed to Drew Sunday to investigate
e circumstances surrounding
the suicide of Albert Kennedy, an
Indian, which occurred Saturday
evening at the home of Kennedy's
father-in-law, Comes Last, near
Drew. The reason given for the
act was dependency over the fact
that his wife had left him. Ken
nedy had been in trouble on ac-
count of marital difficulties at
other times.
Saturday evening, accompanied
by Edward Bear and Andrew
White, a son of Daniel Goodboy,
Kennedy went to the home of
Comes Last, and told Comes Last
that he was sorry about the
trouble with his wife. and wished
her to return to him. Edward
Bear and Andrew White went to
the car and Kennedy called to
them to wait for him. They dis
regarded his call and went on.
He returned to the house, gave
Comes Last a cigaret and took
one himself.
Telling his father-in-law to re-
member what he had said, Ken
nedy shot himself above the ear
with a small calibre revolver.
Comes Last ran to the home of
Robert Mardin, for help.
When they returned Kennedy was
still alive and sitting in a chair,
but died soon after they laid him
down.
County Attorney Foor, Mr.. Mont
of this city, and Justice
Fred Turner, Ford Monroe, deputy
sheriff, Charles Thompson, special
federal officer, DR.. G. D. Fulker-
son. and Harry Walker, all of Pop
ar, went to the Comes Last home
and conducted a thorough investi
cation The conclusion reached
was that Kennedy committed
suicide because of the separation
rom his wife.

MARK BLANKENSHIP
ESCAPED FIRE DAMAGE

The farm home of Mark Blank
enship, of the Northeast commu
nifty, had narrow escape from
serious damage from fire Monday
The fire started on the outside OF
the garage which is built on the
outside of the house, and had II
not been checked would have re-
lieved Mark of garage, house and
car, as we'll as eighty bushels of
seed wheat The fire started dur
ing the high wind Of Monday.
Mark was working in field over
the hill, so did not notice the
smoke from the burning wall. AL
fred Steffenson, a near Deighbor,
who was at work in his field, no.
ticed the heavy smoke and rushed
over to the Blankenship place,
and, with the help of his father,
S. H. Steffenson, soon extinguish-
ed the blaze.
The fire originated in very
peculiar manner. About week
ago Mark says he was out in a
wet snow. His overalls became
soaked, so he hung them out on
the side of the garage to dry.
Then a few days later, he set a
gallon can of lubricating oil on
the ground against the wall. He
thinks the pockets of the overalls
contained matches, and as they
were whipped against the wall by
the wind, a match ignited, the
overalls burned and fell on the
can of lubricating oil. The oil
was all burned from the can, and
it required but a minute to start
the wall ablaze. So Mark says
take warning and don't hang out
clothing containing matches in
the pockets. 1t is dangerous,
in a country that is fire.
1uented by 12O mile an hour gales.
About ten days ago both Al
Stephenson and Mark Blanken-
ship were both threatened by a
prairie fire which was driven by
! west wind, and was whipped out
)nly a few rods from the build |
ngs. It seems a bad spring for |
Tres.
