AFRAID OF REPORTERS Jabe Hines Refuses to Dis- « cuss Dowie Colony With _Newspaper Men. s LI e U S;:\\'S ALL BUT OBERG LIE £ 2ABOUT HIM, fi_‘ounder of New Zion City Bears “Two Names—Wm. M. Hines" i and *‘Jabez Hines.” E - Jabez - Hines, alias Wm. M. Hines, the Blackduck Dowieite who has been aceused of founding everything from "a colony of megroes to a home for English paupers, was in the city this morning. Mr., Hines was ap- proached with a view of gaining some reliable informstion as to his plans regardi the new Zion City which it is claimed he is now establishing, but he posi- tively refused togive out any news regarding the project, and stated that he would divulge nothing to any newspaper except the Blackduck American because all other newspapers had lied about him. Mr! Hines claims that some of the stories circulated about him were false, but when asked to state which ones ~ he said that he did not wish to give this up, but that the newspapers which had published falsehoods about him would get no more news from him. He was asked to give out a statement as to whether -or not the report that he was bankrupt was reliable, but even in this he could not be urged to speak. He does not deny any of the stories which have been published about him, neith- er does-he confirm them, and he stated to the Pioneer this morn- ing that he did not wish any newspaper notoriety. The only reply toany ques- tions asked him was whether or not Jabez Hines and Wm. M. Hines were different persons. He replied that he bore both names and that he had a legal right to them. He further ex- plained that it was a matter of convenience to him to use both names, especially in business transactions, and that he had cousulted a lawyer and found that this - practice was entirely legal. It is not known what his busi- ness here is today, but it is thought that he is contemplating the establishment of a newspa- per through the colums of which he can illumine the minds of the public as to what his plans are regarding his mysteriousactions. George Smither of Bowdle, S. D., was in the city yesterday and looked over the situation here with a view of installing a bowl- ing alley. Mr. Smithers was very- favorably impressed with the city and expects to return in the near future to open a first class establishment. Toys and sleds at Lahr’s. PRINCESS Grocery Co.

WOLVES ATTACK LONE SETTLERS Animals in the North Coun- try Are More Bold Than Usual. Wolves are causing more trou- ble to settlers of the north coun- try than in several years pastac- cording to statements of home- steaders who have visited the local land oftice recently. It is claimed that the animals this year are more bold than usual and haye even attacked men, when alone in the woods. The only explanation for the bols attitude of the aminals is that fewer deer than usual have been killed in the woods this year by hunters, who desire only the head or -horns as trophies and leave the carcasses in the woods. This is accounted for, not by a more human attitude of the hunt- ers, but because throungh absence of snow in the woods during the open season less opportunity was afforded to kill the big game. Andrew Hamilton, who resides near Ripple on his claim, was in the city yesterday and related several instances in which wolves have come to his cabin ir search of food. Mr. Hamilton had a couple of deer carcasses hanging from the roof of the shanty one night and the next morning the the meat was gone and he found the remains of the carcasses in the woods nearby where they had been almost entirely consumed by the wolves. A hunter, whose name Mr. Hamilton could not give, when stopping at his claim, asserted that he had been attacked by wolves early one evening and only his fleetness of foot saved his life. The settlers assert that the difficulty experienced in bring- ing pelts to a township or county clerl’s office prevents many homesteaders from attempting to kill wolves and secure bounty. They claim that the amount re- ceived for the pelts does not nearly cover the expense of mak- ing a trip and that few claim holders kill the animals except when they happen to run onto a pack néar their homes.

The lumber camps in morthern Minnesota, particularly in the vicinity of Bemidji, Tenstrike and Blackduck, will be thoroughly searched during the present win- ter by the state authorities for glandered .horses, and in every instance where diseased animals are found the provisions of the law on the subject, calling for the exterminstion of the afflicted beasts, will be carried out. A number of cases have been re- ported in this vicinity and Dr. S, H. Ward, who is the state veteri- nary, arrived in the city yester- day and will investigate the re- ported cases. Mr. Ward says that a thorough examination of all the camps in the northern part of the. state will be made and that all horses suffering with the disease will be dispatched. Jinkinson Wins Out. J. J. Jinkinson returned last night from Brainerd, where he appeared as plaintiff in the case of Jinkinson vs. the Boness Lum- ber company. The suit was in- stituted to enforce payment for certain logs which Mr. Jinkinson cut upon his homestead sixteen miles south of Bemidji on the Schoolcraft river and which were afterwards sold to the lumber company. They refused pay- ment on the grounds that they had not received the logs, claim- ing that they had been lost while being driven down the river into Lake Irvine. Mr. Jinkinson se- cured a verdict for entire amount for which he sued, $1,000. E. E. McDonald appeared for the plaintiff. The defendants have 40 ‘days in which to appeal the case to the supreme court. Semple Refuses to Go. Wm. Semple, the man accused of skipping his bond at Langon, N. D., is still in the city and De- puty Sheriff;Mahon of Cavalier county is still in the city await- ing the arrival of requisition papers permitting his removal from Minnesota to Noxrth Dakota. The papers have been forwarded from St, Paul by Gov. Van Sant to County Attorney Loud, but 1t is now necassary to send them to Bismark, where they will receive the signature ‘of the chief exe- cutive official of North Dakota. Semple still protests that he can- not be taken back to stand trial for blind pigging. and refuses to go unless the regular proceeding is gone thiough with. Revolution Imminent.

Burt of Minneapolis, agent for a New York firm which buys patents, was in the city yester- day and looked over the new gas wachine recently invented by George Weetman, and upon which the latter has applied to the department at Washington for a patent. Mr. Burt was very much impressed with the ma- chineand declared it to be entirely different from anything of the sort he had eyer seen before. Al- though no deal was completed for the purchase of the machine, Mr. Burt asked for the first chance to make an offer for his firm, and it is probable that alarge amount will be secured for the patent providing it is granted to Mr. Weetman by the authorities at Washington.
