GIRL ARRESTED FOR DESERTING HER WAR BABY Young Waitress Taken to Car- rington to Answer Charge of Abandonment FATHER FIGHTS IN FRANCE “He's over there in France doing his bit; be doesn’t know I'm in this trou- ble, and I'm not going to worry him with it. I'll ‘carry on’ alone best I can,” said 22-years-old Hazel f a@ waitress in a local cafe, arrested Saturday by Chief Martineson and Deputy Sheriff Welch for abandoning her three-weeks-old daughter on the back steps of a Carrington home and turned over Sunday to the sheriff of Foster county. Hazel declares the father of her baby, born three weeks ago in James- town, to Le a well known Fargo young man who is now serving with the Yanks in France. Hazel did not dis- cover her condition until her sweet- heart had been called into service. ‘They bad been lovers for a long time in Fargo, whither Hazel came from Minnesota to make her own way in the world. When Hazel discovered that she was to become a mother, she bore her agony alone rather than burden the fighting father of her war baby with this grief. As the time approached for the little life to be ushered into the world, she left Bismarck, whither she had come from Fargo, hoping to conceal her shame from her friends there and went to Jamestown, where she found a place where she could stay until her baby was born. In the meantime through a fall she had injured one of her limbs, and a, chronic impediment had developed. When her baby was only — three weeks old, last Tuesday she bundled the little girl up in the few baby clothes she had been able to procu for her and took a train to Carring- ton. She had no definite object in view, and it was not until had wandered the streets of Carrington for hours that the thought of abandon- ing her baby occurred to he Then she singled out a home which seemed comfortable and whose people appeal- she ed to her from the little glimps: had caught of them a stealing observed into the rear yard, she k ed her little daughter good-bye and | tenderly left her on the kitchen steps. Hazel then bought a ticket to Bis- marck, and here found employmgnt in a cafe, where she had heen wyyking three days when an order came, Sat: | urday for her arrest. Chief Matineson easily identified the young woman from the descrip- tion furnished by the Foster county sheriff, and she was arrested Satur- day afternoon, She made a complete | confession, but declined to give the name of the father of her baby. Ha-! zel is an attractive young woman of medium heighth, with an excellent fig- ure, an abundance of soft wavy brown | hair, which is well cared for, large. j wondering blue eyes, and a childish | little mouth. She is not in appear- ance, the type of girl who easily “goes wrong,” and the sympathies of local authorities were aroused by the hope- less helplessness of the young woman and by her straight-forwardness. B is hoped here that the Foster county courts will take into consideratigp, alt of the ciroumstances surrounding, this tragedy and that they will deal lightly with the principal victim | AUY W. 5.

The highly partisan crowd stood up to a may and yelled for a winning rally when Chicago came to bat in the ninth and almost got what they asked for. Paskert and Merkle expired in- gloriously on field plays, but Pick slammed a grounded at Shean and! beat the throw by a hair. Manager Mitchell sent in Barber to bat for Deal. Pick stole second and went to third on a passed ball. Shean threw to; catch him and Thomas at third for Eoston fumbled the throw.

Rich, Fed As good a grain crop as the north- western states have ever produced been safely harvested, and the is now clear for the gathering of a record corn crop. Throughout the eastern half of the district, the corn harvest promises to be very large. The quality is high and August weather, although it brought a great deal of rain, was, as a whole, favorable te the prompt maturity of this important cereal. Preliminary reports give reason to believe that the Argentine var have a permanent usefulnes states. One test plot showed that w on Aug’ corn fully matured and harvested t 12, or fully 30 days a of the earliest killing frost on r in the eastern half of the district. Other samples are reported as fully matured and ready to cut during the latter half of the month. The most satisfactory feature of the corn situation is that the crop is prob- ably safely out of danger from trost. In the eastern half of the district, government records show general kill- ing frosts as follows for the last ten years: 1907 20 and September 30. and September 29. 1912 1913, 1914 1915-— 1916-~- 18 and October 9. and October 10. 1917 and October 6. The earliest killing frost since 1898 occurred on September 13, 1902. In the fall of 1883 there were killing frosts at St. Vincent and Moorhead on September 8, with a light frost the same date in St. Paul and Minneapo- is | The satisfactory progress of the corn ¢rop is more than ally im- porte" It has removed any danger of d’further seed shortage next spring. Farmé#$ are already taking steps to select matured ears and put them in afe storage. The substantial supply of good seed which is now available | will probably result in a large acre- age in corn next year. The current | crop is unusual, not only for its = formly kood quality, but for the ctory acreage that will be harvest d in the face of the utmost difficulty last spring in obtaining seed, and the very poor germinating quality of most of the seed that was then ilable. | Threshing of small grains is in pro-| gress throughout the esatern half of the district and the yields are uni- formly good. In this general area the returns from wheat, both because of price and the yield, will be better than'''the farmers have ever enjoyed beforé! Threshing returns from oth- er-grains are very satisfactory. In the western half of the district, and particularly in western North Da- kota, the yield is proving to be some- what better than promised 30 days ago, and the government price for wheat will give the farmers a money return that will compare favorably with what they formerly received in| an average year. The substantial rainfall during the last half of August damaged the small grain in the shock, but was of con- siderable advantage to flax and pas-| turage. | More or less of the new wheat ar-| riving at terminal markets shows smut.
