D., which I had rented from J. A. Zimmerman, the banker of Gackle, N. D., and that he called me in the bank. at Gackle, one:day about the first of October, 1924, and said to me that he would allow me $300 credit on my note which he held aga! me if I would set the barn on fire at the Katy Schlinker farm. “I agreed to do the job for him in money on the barn credit on my note for “And I further state that the lowing year, which I believe was he agreed to allow me $100 if I set fire to burn the barn situated on the Jacob Ruikka ft which is located about six miles sout of Gackle, N.

E. Shipp. Dan Falby, Valley City, who had just pleaded guilty to a gambling charge, breathed a vast sigh of relief. “You are directed to pay the costs,” the judge went on, “$75.20 please.” Again the defendant's sigh was audible but not with re- Nef. Falby was one of 18 men ar- rested in a raid on an alleged gambling den late last December. He was released on his own re- cognizance and ordered to appear for a hearing. He neglected to attend to this formality and the sheriff of Bur- leigh county was sent to his home at Valley City to arrest him. Expenses incidental to his ap- prehension brought the cost to $75.20.
