FIRE AT RED TRAIL GAS STATION COST OVER $2,000 LOSS Believed to Have Started From Ashes From Boiler in Base- ment of Building Fire of unknown origin which broke out in the Red Trail Oil and Transfer company’s building shortly after 6 o'clock last evening resulted in dam- lages of $2,000 to $3,000, according to an estimate made by company offi- cials. Belicf was expressed that the blaze may have started in the basement of j the building where a boiler is located.

The fire endangered three oil sup- ply tanks housed in the building and firemen were commended highly for the efforts in saving them. Ceilings and walls of the structure were scorched and windows Icading into the office smashed. Firemen ex- tinguished the blaze after it had burned about half an hour.

Copyright 1929 Chrysler Corperefien Husband's, but Wife Says It ls Her Property Federal court was in session here today, with Judge Andrew Miller hearing a suit by Mrs. F. C. Turner of near Fort Yates against the gov- ;ernment to set aside a levy on land to which she claims ownership, but which the levy in question had taken and sold as the property of her hus- | band to satisfy a livestock trespass | judgment against him in June, 1928. The suit hinges on a description of the land which Turner deeded to his wife in March, 1928. The quarter sec- tion is described as an NW tract in NE quarter of section 10, T. 131, R. 82. The NW quarter is Indian allotment land and is owned by an Indian. The ‘contention is made that Turner must have deeded the NE quarter, secing he had homesteaded that and did not Possess the other quarter. If that contentioned be sustained the levy, therefore, was not on land of Turner, against whom the trespass judgment lodged, but on land of his | wife. With that claim as their basis, |the Turners are seeking to have the |government’s action and sale set | aside. The land in question ts part of an enlarged homestead, not a statutory homestead, and thus the transfer has a different but valid status under the law, which affects this suit. The deed was given Mrs. Turner prior to Turner receiving his patent on the tract, with nothing but his receipt to indicate ownership. ‘Turner says he deeded the land to the wife in consideration of being given the use of $1,000 Mrs. Turner | received from home. To indemnify her he transferred the northeast quarter, but in making out the deed, he con- tends, an error crept into the descrip- tion, just how he does not know, and former Judge Becde of Fort Yates wrote “NW”. into the instrument where “NE” was intended. Says Wife Paid Taxes Furthermore, Turner testified that the taxes on the land was paid by money of Mrs. Turner. Scott Cameron is representing the Turners, and Peter Garberg, federal district attorney, is representing the government, assisted by Usher L. Bur- dick, Fargo attorney. ‘Turner was asked in cross-examina- tion whether he had not been in the habit of mortgaging quarters of land | he did not own to get loans, but he | said the transactions which led to that | impression were not his. He was be- ling confused with transactions by his | son, who owned the lands in question, jhe said. | As to farming the land levied on, | |ne said that was carried on by him |under a lease from Mrs. Turner. As ‘further evidence that he did not own ‘the quarter named in the deed, he sald he understood the judgment ob- tained against him in the cattle tres- pass case was based on his stock wan- dering on the quarter in question, im- plying that he was not the owner, therefore it was not the tract he con- veyed to the wife. \ | Beulah Men Injured As Gas Tank Explodes Beulah, N.
