THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1919 ‘ BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE ; tenths o fthe medical profession of the county had their names tacked to the PERFECTLY GOOD MURDER AT NW. P. HOTEL SPOILED Chief of Police. Hurries to the League Headquarters to Find It All Mistake When “Come quick doctor, Fred Davis is badly shot,” trickled over the phone into the,ear that was not sup- posed to hear those \,ru1 words, Dame Rumor went on a spree and before noon today had succeeded in murdering balf the population of Bismarck and putting the remainder in the hospity badly wounded. But after the facts in the case were thoroughly investigated it was found; that nobody was shot, or even half shot, The tale which sounded most plausi- ble was to the effect that two men, after sampling several brands of Swed- ish cocktails, finding time < hanging heavily on their hands decifed that Governor Frazier was not the only muddler in the world, Snugly seated in the lobby of the league hotel—whei most devilish schemes seem to be con- cocted—the two men decided to play a prank on Fred Davis, former deputy, state bank examiner, “Let’s call up Dr, * * * * * and tell him Davis is badly shot,” said one of the men. So they went to the tele- phone booth in the lobby. “Hello central, give me in a hurry,” said one. Speeded by the imperial tone of the speaker, central madly jammed her plug into 12345XYZ, - “Well,” said a sleepy, voice, “Come quick doctor, Fred Davis is badly shot,” said the man and hung up the receiver. : The party on the other end @id not happen to be the doctor in question and wondering what the megsage: meant immediately circulated the plea. Chris Martineson, police chief, hearing of the shooting, rushed to the league hotel and plunged thru a crowd of long haired, followers of Governor Frazier. On inquiry, it was found that no- body had been shot or even half shot. In fact. the two men who had inno- cently started the whole affair disap- peared. Nobody was in the lobby un- Jess that group of self-admiring and praising _ officer - holders clustered around Lynn J., might be included, but this morning rumor, counter rumor. super rumor and ever other son and daughter of Dame Rumor had 'travers- e@ the valleys and mountains, the highways. and byways until nine- 12S45XYZ Daily Fashion Hint FROCKS OF SUPERIOR STYLE. Silk poplin, whichis to be fashion- able because it is serviceable as well as good looking, may be used to good advantage in duplicating the first dress, The deeply cut front of the plouse and inset vest. of tan silk. is an attractive feature of the blouse, to say nothing of the cuffed hem. The skirt is gathered at the waist and has a side plait at the front. Medium size requires 4 yards 48-inch mate rial. Serge, poplin, cashmere or wool jersey may be employed in develop- ing. the second dress, which has the sides of the skirt extended to form large pockets.. A self-belt holds in’ the fulness at the waist. Instead. of the customary buttons the adjust- ment at the left side is achieved by lacing silk cords through embroid- ered eyelets, A collar of tub satin finishes the neck. Five and one-half yards 40-inch material are required for medium size. f First )Model: Pictorial “Review Dress No, 8406,’ Sizes, 14 to 20 years. Price, 25 cents. L Second: Model: Dress. No. 8522.

When he did not return to his home, his parents looked to wm and found him in the field unconscious, having probably been ex- posed to the cold for several hours.

J. Wicklander.of Washburn, who was terribly crushed between two tractors last week, is slowly recover- ing at the St. Alexius Hospital and in spite of the many severe injuries he sustained is expected to be able to leave that institution in a few weeks. Wicklander: had both collarbones fractured, four ribs on his right side torn lose from the breast-bone and three of these torn lose from his i backbone, five ribs fractured on his left side, his chest squeezed into a “Vv” shape condition and suffered several serious internal injuries. Dr. M. W. Roan, who has had charge of the case, stated today it was on of the most unusual surgical cases that he has ever handled. Dr. Roan found it necessary to attach the ribs to the breastbone by bone graft- ing, each ribeting’ securely fastened by a wedged-shaped piece of bone and those severed from the » backbone literally pushed back into the spine and held in place by a leather. jacket. Wicklander’s fractured bones are mending exceptionally well, the ,physi- cian stated,‘and unless serious com- plications arise from the internal in- juries, the injured man will have no difficulty in recovering. \POTATOES RUN UP TO $135 PER ACRE Potatoes were one of the best-pay- ing crops harvested in North Dakota this year, according to the report of A. J. Surratt, field agent of the United States bureau of crop estimates. Mr. Surratt finds that potatoes yielded as high as 90 bushels in Pembina coun- ty. Few potatoes were sold for less than $1.50’ per bushel, which would make Pembina’s ‘average potato crop worth $185 per acre. Corn yields ranged from fourteen bushels in the drought-stricken southwestern dis- trict to 388 bushels in Richland county. Sargent, with an average of nine bushels to the acre, reported the state’s heaviest flax yield. In Bot- tineau, Bowman and Slope flax aver- aged only one bushel to the acre.
