PATENTS 32" 325 »N WN U- —NO 15— 1907 the coming summer, and In and About the State MONEY FOR CAPITOL FRONT. Bill Introduced in the Senate by Sena- tor Dunn. ‘The board of state capitol commis- sioners at their meeting recently de- cided that, if possible, they ought to procure and put in place before they go out of office eight electroliers or electric light fixtures for the entrance steps and four handsome bronze lions for the perestals in front of the new tapitol. Their available funds, as shown by their last report, are smal] and insuffi- cient, but certain interest items have been charged to the capitol which they have always claimed did not properly belong there. When the first law was passed which authorized them to issue certificates of indebted- ness ($500,000), no provision was made for the interest to accrue on them, and consequently, as they ma- tured, both principal and interest was charged to the new capitol fund. Sub- sequent legislation provided the inter- est on the certificates of indebtedness which have been issued should be charged to the general revenue fund. and the board claims that this is the correct business method, and that their fund should have credit for the interest charged to them on the first | issue of $500,000. The amount charged to the new capitol fund was $33,294.75, and Sena- tor Dunn, at the request of the capitol commissioners introduced a Dill to have this amount restored to the new capitol fund. If the bill becomes & law the commissioners feel sure that it will give them more than sufficient | to accomplish the purpose they have in view. Senator Dunn will ask for its passage under suspension of the| It is so simple a proposition | rules. that no opposition is expected, and the hope is that the house will take similar action. Should the board find that they have sufficient funds remaining after securing the electroliers and lions, they want to procure a handsome bronze statue of Gov. Ramsey, to be placed in one of the four niches around the dome, and in so doing to set a standard for future statues to be placed in the other three positions. They have long had this in view, and secured from Gov. Ramsey,,some time prior to his death, photographs of him in several different poses, having first | received definite instructions from Daniel Chester French, who designed the six marble figures on the exterior of the capitol, as to what a sculptor would require to make an accurate re- production of him. GHOST IN THE WOODS. Settler Sees “Wehr” Wolf Near Col- eraine. Polish settlers in the country east of Coleraine are in a state of excite-| ment over the alleged discovery of a “wehr” wolf, which takes the shape of a beautiful woman garbed in a long white robe, and whom the supersti-| tious believe is seeking men’s souls. Milan Prevorsko, a homesteader, says that while he was walking to his claim through the woods recently a woman dressed in a long, white robe appeared. She followed him, about ten paces in the rear, and constantly beckoned to him. When he stopped the woman also stood motionless, and when, terror-stricken, he took to his heels the “wehr” wolf kept close be- hind him. At last, in desperation, he stopped and hurled a huge stone at the mysterious form, which instantly vanished. He describes the woman as above the ordinary height, with long, raven- black hair, which hung down over her shoulders, reaching below the waist line. The face, which was intensely pale, nevertheless was beautiful, and the eyes seemed like liquid fire. Some of the settlers who listened to Prevorsko’s tale were inclined to dis- believe it, but he has found many oth- ers who have implicit faith in his tale. Those who have doubted the story have traveled the path at all hours of, the night withcut encountering the, weird spectacle. Drainage Work Ready. A large amount of drainage work is to be done in the flat country west and northwest of Fergus Falls during the first ditch contracts of the season were let this week. One is for a large ditch near Rothsay, the successful bidder being John A. Brumbaugh of Elkhart, | The cost of excavating will be; Ind. 13.19 cents per cubic yard, and the total will amount to about $29,000. The other witch is in the vicinity of Foxhome, fifteen miles from Fergus} Falls, and the lowest bid was submit- ted by Charles Reber. The cost of the work is 153-4 cents per cubic yard, and the total will be about $12,000. It is in this locality that it was impossi- ble to move the threshing machines last fall, necessitating winter and spring threshing. STATE LOANS MONEY. The state investment board has au- thorized the loan of more than $50,- 000. The largest loan was to the town of Fairmont, Martin county. The sum is $20,000, and is to be used for a city hall and jail. Norman county will borrow $11,266 for the purpose of building ditches for drainage purposes. The town of Hallack, Kittson county, wil] secure $5,000 for roads and bridges. _ ! GOLD MINE IMPROVES, Shaft on Farm Is Sunk Deeper and Richer Ore Is Found. Investigation into the report of the gold mine on the Gainey farm, near Elba, in Winona county, shows that there is good foundation for the stories that have been sent out. The first indications of gold were found on the farm some years ago, when a deep well was sunk. The well driller said the soil brought out was different than he had found anywhere else, and he believed that gold ore was in it. Mr. Gainey has since been interested in some Western copper and gold Mines, and frem his investigations there he was sure he had gold ore on his own farm. Recently he did some prospecting, sinking a_ six-foot shaft down about twelve feet. Some of the ore removed he had assayed and found it to contain gold that would run about $4 to the ton. Since then the shaft has been sunk more than thirty feet, and the looks of the ore continues to improve. Another assay is now being made, and upon it de- pends future operation. INDICTS MRS. ANDERSON. Woman Who Cashed Check on Insur- ance Policy Is Accused by Jury. At the session of the grand jury at Bemidji an indictment was brought | against Mrs. Jennie Anderson for the cashing of a check issued on an insur- | ance policy, the property of another Mrs. Jennie Anderson. The rightful claimant is a resident of Bemidji, her husband dying there a year ago. She put in the proofs of death. and awaited the return of the check. .Instead of the check being sent to the clerk of the local lodge for delivery, the clerk of the Little Falls | lodge sent it direct and it fell into the hands of the wrong Mrs. Ander- son. The latter claimed she was ex- | pecting to hear from the returns on a j policy she thought her husband held | in the Redmen. It has developed the | Redmen do not issue policies. | ‘The grand lodge of the A. O. U. W. shortly after the circumstanges of the incident were exposed, promptly is- sued another warrant for $2,000 for the rightful owner of the policy. LOOKS MUCH LIKE THIEF. ' Even Scar on Innocent Man Tallies in Mistaken Identification. There are two men in the West | who bear a remarkable resemblance ; to each other. One is a horse thief and the other is not, and the innocent one, D. Ellingsworth, has been under arrest at Winona for several days on the charge of Stealing a horse at De- corah, Iowa, four years ago. He was arrested on suspicion, and a more de- | tailed description was sent from Iowa. It tallied exactly in height, weight, features, color of hair and eyes, man- ' ner of speech, and even to a scar on one of his limbs. Finally the sheriff came from Decorah, but as he was a new man he could not confirm the identification, and the man was taken to Preston, where the thief had work- ed for Mr. Grattan. This gentleman ' said at once the wrong man had been arrested, and consequently Ellings- worth was released. Scicsa ealh dare Peers, SEAT PETITION MISSING. Exhibit That Was Before Supreme | Court Cannot Be Found. | The discovery has been made that the original county seat removal peti- tion is missing from the office of the county auditor at Red Lake Falls. ' Search has been made throughout the office, the vaults have been ransacked, but no trace of the missing petition or any clew to its whereabouts have been discovered. The petition was re- ‘turned from St. Paul, where it formed an exhibit before the state supreme court in the case in which a decision | recently was handed down. After fin- | ishing with the petition, the paper was sent to Clerk of Court Johnson of Red | Lake county, who turned it over to the deputy auditor, taking a receipt therefor. The deputy auditor is cer- tain that the paper was placed in the vault. ee WILL GO AFTER TRADE. Builders and Merchants Organize for Business Campaign. A number of prominent Crookston contractors and dealers in building material, hardware and other lines, pave organized a builders and traders’ exchange to systematically go after the building business of the valley, which is now going to North Dakota towns and towns in the southern part of the state because of neglect on the part of Crookston dealers. A secre- tary will devote his entire time to the business of the organization. The fol- lowing officers were elected: J. E. Morrissey, president; Charles Jeffer- son, vice president; A. O. Busteruo, treasurer and temporary secretary. at Se ae VILLAGE HAS NO DEBTS. ner’s New Council Begins Work Under Best of Conditions.

Women Avoid Operations When a woman suffering from female trouble is told that an oper- ation is necessary, it, of course, frightens her. The very thought of the hospital, the operating table and the knife strikes terror to her heart. It is quite true that these troub- les may reach a stage where an ope- ration is the only resource, but a great many women have been cured by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound after an operation has been decided upon as the only cure. The strongest and most grateful statements possible to make come from women who by taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound made from native roots and herbs, have escaped serious operations, as evidenced by Miss Rose Moore’s case, of 307 W. 26th St., N.Y. She writes:- Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-"‘Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound has cured me of the very worst form of female trouble and I wish to express to you my deepest gratitude. I suffered intensely for two years so that I was unable to attend to my duties and was a burden to my family. I doctored and doctored with only temporary reliefand constantly objecting to an operation which I was advised to undergo. I decided to try Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound; it cured me of the terrible trouble and I am now in better health than I have been for many years.” This and other such cases should encourage every woman to try Ly- dia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound before she submits to an operation. Mrs. Pinkham’s Standing Invitation to Women Women suffering from any form of female weakness are invited to promptly communicate with Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. From the symptoms given, the trouble may be located and the quickest and surest way of recovery advised.
