SAYS NO FAMINE EXISTS IN VI- CINITY OF RIPPLE. Soap Famine Prevalent, Which He Declares to Be a “Dirty Shame.” A. M. Greeley, editor of the Big Fork Compass, and one of the best known members of the newspaper fraternityin Minne- sota. is in the city today and will leave tomorrow morning for Grantsburg, Wis., where he will join his wife and family. Mr. Greeley called on a number of his old time friends while here and the following interview was secured from him by the Pio- neer: “I have not met -*Shorty’ Wesley while he was rusticating on the Big Fork, although Tas- cott is holding a claim near Rip- ple, Cole Younger has been se- cluding himself in an unsurveyed town while training moose for his wild west show and Tracey is there trying tolive down the exaggerated reports.of his death. ¢There is no bread famine, al- though the stores haye for some time been out of flour, lard and soap. We feel the soap famine the worst. Lack of soap is a dirty shame. We havenot suffered from lack of food but from the pres- ence of too much appetite. There is something so bracing about Big Fork air that a man needs a throat like a hay press to keep ahead of it. The only case of starvation we have had is that of a settler who died right after eating a peck of beans and a shoulder of untamed mutton. He could not eat fast enough to nour- ish his craving for food. “The swamps have prevented early sleighing by harboring big swarms of mosquitos that agitate the water and keep it from freez- ing. This zero weather is killing them and the swamps are drop ping into a frozen sleep. “Game? Lots of it. I walked the 40 miles to Northome in a couple of hours, but would have made better time had 1 not been obliged to halt evey few minutes and allow the big herds of deer and moose pass in countless pro- | cessions across my trail.”’ Train Robbery.

Asks Protection From Imaginary Foe Who he Thinks is Pur- suing Him. August Johnson was brought down from Blackduck this morn- ing by Deputy Sheriff John Bailey and Chief of Policc Cash Brunelle of that city and a hear- ing is taking place this afternoon in Judge Clark’s court as to the sanity of the man. The unfortunate man has been employed byJ. O, Harris at the Richards hotel at Tenstrike for some time past but was siezed witha fit of insanity Tuesday night. He imagined that some one was pursuing him with a view of inflicting some terrible punishment upon him and arose from bed, dressed himself and ran from the house into the woods. He went to Blackduck and remained hidden in the woods in that vicinity for a num- ber of hours after which he again turned up at Blackduck where he was arrested by Chief Brunelle. The hearing was continued un- til a late hour this afternoon and nodecision has been given by Judge Clark. It is very prob- able that the man will be comit- ted to the asylum at Fergus Falls. Rector of St. Luke’s.—Ashburn- ham, Ontario, Testifies to the Good Qualities of Chamber- lain’s Cough Remedy. Ashburnham, Ont., April 18, 1908.—I think it is only right that I should tell you what a won- derful effect Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy has produced. The day before Easter I was so distressed with a cold and cough that I did not think to be able to take any duties the next day, as my voice was almost choked by the cough. The same day I re- ceived an order from you for a bottle of your Cough Remedy. I at once procured a sample bot- tle and took about three doses of the medicine. To my great relief the cough and cold had completely disappeared and I was able to preach threetimes on Easter Day. I know that this rapid and ef- fective cure was due to your Cough Remedy. I make this tes- timonial without solicitation, be- ing thankful to have found sucha Godsent rsmeby. Respectfully yours, E. A. Langfeldt, M. A., Rector of St. Luke’s Church.
