Wrn. Kavanaugh , of Crookston ,
came down last Saturday with the
complaint that two persons had
run away with one of his horses.
He had hired a saddle horse to a
man by the name of Arnold to go
np to the Beed place several miles
west of Crookston on Wednesday
morning. This Mr. Arnold wish
ing to stay up in the country de
cided upon sending the horse back
to Mr. Kavanaugh by two young
men who came along about the
time he was looking for someone
going to Crookston , and thinking
of saving himself a trip , he deliv
ered the horse to them. These
men were in a one horse rig and
one of them got onto the saddle
horse. By trivial occurrences ,
seemingly , these men were traced
to Long Pine and were there ar
rested , after having traded off the
saddle or sold it and had traded
their shalves for a tongue. After
making futile attempts to trade 01
sell the outfit they were relieved
of further attempts by the Long
Pine marshal who notified them
officially that they were wanted al
Valentine. They gave their names
as Thomas F. Fielding of Alliance.
Neb. , and Charles F. Connors , of
some town in Wyo. Howard Lay-
port is entitled to considerable
praise for the capture of these
horse thieves who think they arc
only up for a breach of trust. Mr.
Kavauaugh is glad to get his hors (
back and the saddle being a bor
rowed one , he is glad to be able tc
return to its ovner. Fielding and
Connors aee in the county jail t <

There was a bully scrap ir
in front of Sageser's barber shor
Tuesday. A native of Africa whc
pronounced himself John Thomp
son and was joshed considerable
by the boys as being a mathema
tician , had held the importanl
position for some time ( since King
resigned ) as shoe shiner and portei
for the barber shop. John got
crazy gone on F. M. Hickler's
daughter and when he delivered
the barber towels to be washed ,
slipped a note in her hand express
ing his love and admiration with
a request to be answered when
they met again , or words to that
effect. Frank Sears , an uncle of
the girl was given the note and he
met the African instead , much to
his surprise. Sheriff Lay port got
ifter the man of figures when he
finally turned to run , and arrested
him , but later turned him loose
upon his promise to leave town.
The 0. S. weather bureau re
port for the week ending Sept. 20 ,
shows that the mean daily tem
perature was 63 ° or about 1 °
ibove thenormal. . The highest
temperature was 89 ° and the low
est 36 ° on the 19th. A light frost
Dccurred on the morning of the
19th , but there was no damage
lone even in the lower benches of
the river bottoms. The record is
igain broken in the matter of kill
ing frost , which according to the
IS years records occurs between
the 10th and 18th of September ,
ind this is the 21st without any
damaging frost. This extension
} f killing frost period insures the
safety of the corn crop. The pre
cipitation for the week is O.oS of
in inch and gives a total rainfall
} f 25.4-5 inches , creeping up close
ly to the greatest annual rainfall
in IS years. Winds have been
the normal.
There arc too many strangers
in our city who butt in or try to
3pen up a conversation with worn-
2n whom they meet in stores or on
the street. There may be no
harm meant in many cases but the
fact remains that a man offers
insult to a woman who is an entire
stranger to him by "butting hi"
Dr joining in a conversation in
which he has no interest , unless
[ \e be invited or ine case he be the
3iily person apparently able to
furnish the information sought in
i question for such information by
i lady. Even then , a gentleman
should consider whether or not it
svould be appropriate for him to
' 'butt in , " depending much upon
the gravity of the occasion and the
need of his services. There is too
much of this being done , even
though it may be by some im
properly raised person , "who
lidn't mean anything , or didn't
know any better. " Strangers
should keep their places , or sooner
ar later they may be sorry.
Another Shooting Scrape.
Corporal Elijah Custard of M
Co. , 25th Infantry , was shot in the
top of the head last Sunday eve
ning about 4 : o'clock at the Harris
sporting house by Wm. Craig who
was running the place. We are
told that Craig and Custard had
engaged in a quarrel over a girl
and Craig told the girl to come oul
of the room which she occupied
with Custard. This was against
the wishes of Custard and he re
monstrated with Craig who struck
him over the head with a revolver
and then shot him in the top of the
head. Some friends of Custard
caught the revolver or Craig's
hand as he first leveled it at Cus
tard and Wm. Rash , the bar tend
er , handed Craig another revolrei
and told Craig to shoot him whicl
Craig did , according to the reports
we got of the trouble. Custarc
livod ab'out'an hour and a half af-
t r
that Craig throwed a revolver
down beside Custard as he lay dy
ing , evidently to make it appear
that Custard was trying to shoot
Craig when Craig fired. There
were several witnesses to the
shooting and the truth will very
likely come out in the trial.
Craig was arrested on the charge
of shooting with felonious intent
Wrn. Ivash , the bartender , as an
iccornplice and accessory to the
[ jrime and they are being held for
murder.
Craig was formerly a corporal
Df M Co. and since his discharge
las been running the place where
the trouble occurred.
Dr. Lewis held another inquest
ind decided that Elijaha Custard
kvas dead and the jury decided
: hat he was shot. Several witnes
ses saw the shooting and William
Uraig and Wm. Rash were charg-
jd with the murder of Elijah
Dustard.
