MOTHER'S HAPPINESS TURNED 10 SADNESS William Miner, Near Sanger, Victim of Appoplexy Dur- ing Mother's Visit Joy gave way to sorrow in the Wil- liam Miner household, five miles west of Sanger, over the week-end. Miner's 79-year-old mother had not jseen her 56-year-old son for more ‘than a year and Saturday morning, she drove to:the son's home at Sanger from Minot, arriving there at noon. Saturday afternoon and evening the two visited, and they stayed up late in the night becaus they had so many things to tell each other. Both went to bed happy. Shortly before 7 o'clock Sunday morning, Miner arose and awakened his daughter, who began preparations for breakfast, Miner went out to milk | the cows. He didn’t return for break- | fast, and his daughter and mother, impatient, left the house for the barn after him. They found him in the farmyard— dead, a victim of apoplexy. Miner, who had operated\a farm near Center until a few months ago when he moved to Sanger, had not been well during the last year, but his sudden death was unexpected. He leaves his mother, widow and daugh- ter, and a son in a western state. Funeral arrangements have not been made definitely, pending word from his son, but rites probably will be conducted at Center Wednesday or Thursday. Miner was the father of Hazel Miner, who in 1920 gave her life in an heroic effort to save the lives of {her small brother and sister. Dur- ing a blizzard in which they were lost, she gave her overcoat to give added warmth to the children. The children lived—but she froze to death. (MRS.

Directors o Sinbad, the bullsnake of Joe Mc-/ Carthy’s Arabian Nights show win- dow, has not ceased his activities with his death. He has been dated for an- other important function. June 9, Sinbad, embalmed, lac- quered and in a reptilian boxing pose, will be taken to Grand Forks to illus- trate a talk by Joe Tschumperlin be- fore the State Funeral Directors as- sociation. Tschumperlin is to talk on the stiffening qualities of a certain em-! balming fluid recently discovered, and | as Sinbad very ably demonstrates the virtues of this concoction, the bull- snake, posed. as a creeping gladiator about to attack a rattler, is to go! along as an exhibit. Meanwhile the show window, ren- dezvous for an assortment of bull-| snake challengers for a battle with rattlesnakes, continues to add to its bunch 0: constrictor hangouts. Sun- day two motorists brought in a large specimen tied across the hood of their car. The.snake was very angry when dumped into the cage, and at once began attacking the four others. No harm was done, however. The snake cage has been set in a tin pan of water, which seeps up through gimlet holes in the bottom. This is considered a necessary Physiological and hygienic necessity if the snakes are to be kept alive, in- stead of dying as did Sinbad.

BASEBALL PROGRAM HERE DEFENDED BY SHIPLEY TO LIONS} District Governor Says Colored] Team Should Have Sup- | port of Fans Actual plans for the opening of the baseball season here on the part of the Gilkerson Union Giants were an- nounced to the Lions club luncheon today by District Governor D. E. Shipley. He announced the first game next Sunday between the Giants and the Northern Pacific team, semipro champions of Min- nhesota, would surely be an interesting contest as both teams are strong ag- gregations. Incidentally, Lion Shipley took oc- casion to pay his respects to a slur in a Killdeer paper, which tries to raise the race issue over the Giants. This team will headquarter here, said Lion Shipley, so that Bismarck may have the pleasure of real baseball this summer. It was the only means to assuring the city the national sport, he said, as one player, Ray Nagle, was the only member of last year’s players to appear before the baseball committee of the service clubs and Association of Commerce when the season was planned and volunteered his cooperation. Lion Shipley said the committee had guaranteed the Giants $350 for headquartering here for the month of June. Their next Sunday contest will be a double-header. Captain G. A. M. Anderson was chairman of the day and he. in- troduced Major A. K. Kupfer, who spoke on life in Panama as seen by a U. S. army officer. He also ex- plained why the canal is a lock water- way—due to a 14-inch tide in the Caribbean sea and a 14-foot tide in the Pacific, which made an open canal like the Suez an impossibility. Dr. A. M. Fisher called attention to the state medical meeting and asked the Lions to extend the glad hand wherever possible. President Ayers reminded the Lions that achievement for the Boy Scouts will occupy the program June 16. He also announced the doings at Beulah last Wednesday night when a new club was instituted there and lauded the Mandan Lions for the fine talent they provided for the instituting pro- | gram. Amundson, of Bowman, and Harry O'Brien, editor of the Walsh County Record, Park River. As a committee on the training {camp at the fort, President Ayers appointed Dr. F. B.
