Very many complaints have been made of late regarding the refusal of the street railway company to give transfers to the Normal School line at corner of Front and Sixth Streets. The service on the Normal line is not the most satisfactory, the cars do not run on schedule time and only run in the same direction every thirty or forty minutes. The largest part of the patronage the company receives in Moorhead is from this line. Stilll they refuse to give transfers at any point except Broadway and N. P.

HARWOOD DEAD. 1 Mrs. A. Harwood died at a local hospital this morning. She had been ill for over a year and her death did not come as a surprise.

The deceased leaves a grief stricken husband and one child to mourn her loss. The funeral will be held from the home, 420 Twelfth Avenue South, Friday afternoon, and interment will be in Riverside Cemetery. ECONOMY IN BAKING. Rhinlander (Wis.) Herald: There is more dependent upon the baking powder, so far as economy in making biscuit and cake is coucerned, than in any other one thing The baking p'nvder that will make the most, the finest and the most healthful food is the most economical. The cheap alum baking powders average about five per cent of leavening gas.

Therefore it will take three times as much alum powder to raise the same cake or biscuit as it does of the Royal Baking powder, for instance, which is a cream of tartar powder with three times the leavening strength so the actual cost with the alum powder is the greatest. Further than this, however, the cream of tartar powder makes the finest kind of food, while the alum powders frequently fail when all the eggs, flour and butter used are wasted. The greatest economy in the use of a baking powder like the Royal is in the healthfulness of the food it makes. It saves in doctor's bills many times its cost over alum powders. The Royal Baking Powder as every housewife knows, is always to be relied upon.

It is one of the greatest aids she has. She is always able with the least trouble to make the very finest biscuits, cakes, muffins and crusts. Many a reputation has been made by the delicious things she has been able to make with it. Any woman has a right to be indignant when the grocer sends her another baking powder its place, which spoils her food, injures her reputation and brings her blame. $1 will start an account in the Northern Trust Co.

In fact one man publishes an answer on this topic and says he thinks many would not vote for a good many laws now on our books and needing resubmission, for instance, that taxes have increased since territorial days 20 years ago, when a golden future was predicted when all homesteads were proven up and taxable. Also they might consider a wholesale reduction in the number of senators and representatives. This resubmission business is a funny club. It might be a boomerang. VE IT! 1 Order now, A.

Becker can be prosecuted if her husband declines to press the matter. The law provides that only a husband may prosecute a wife on an adultery charge, or a wife a husband. It was for this reason that Judge Kneeshaw stated yesterday that he did not believe that if Hankley had consulted an attorney and taken proper legal steps he could have been convicted, unless his wife had appeared against him. The contention of the state's attorney is that as Becker has already sworn to a complaint against his wife it does not make any difference whether or not he appears in the prosecution now. However, without Becker, it would be impossible to prove some essential facts, such as the marriage of Mr.

and Mrs. Becker. Hankley has confessed that be had criminal relations in this county with Mrs. Becker but this would' not be sufficient to secure a conviction without absolute proof of the marriage. 'I've got a job for myself and said Becker, "and if I could get her out of jail we would leave the city at once She is sorry for what she has done SHIP-BUILDING IN ENGLAND.

Philadelphia Ledger: "Lloyd's Register of British and. Foreign Shipping" for 1904 shows in striking detail the supremacy of the Kingdom, in ship-building. That country during the year built nearly twice as large a tonnage as all other countries put together. Including sailing-ships, threefifths of the tonnage added to the world's mercantile marjne was launched in British shipyards. Including war vessels, the total British output, 749 vessels of 1,332,337 tons, considerably exceeded the total foreign output.

Among foreign countries the three leading places are held by the United States, 239,000 tons Germany, 202,000, and France 81,000. PIERCE'S ANNOUNCEMENT. Grafton Record: Last Saturday, while at Bismarck, we purchased of A. L. Woods The Record printing plant, good will, subscription list and outstanding accounts, and assumed all liabilities.

This is a move that we have long hoped to make, but owing to certain conditions and money last reason being day of realizing our ambition was delayed. The writer and Mr. Woods established The Record in 1890, and it prospered from the start. At first prosperity was hardly visible to the naked eye, but it was there and has never left the premises. At times the gasoline engine bucked like an unbroken broncho and the cylinder press refused to eat out of the naked hand, but Saturday night always found the printers paid and the wholesale houses reassured.

Grafton is a good town, our citizens are progressive, enterprising and generous. We heard a man, who moved away from Grafton several years ago say it was the best town he ever lived irt or expected to live in. He was speaking the truth, which was George Washington's specialty. We have never held public office (although we had a bowing acquaintance with the postoffice at one time) but we intend to hold on to this printing office until something gives away. We want to thank our patrons and readers for their patronage, patience and indulgence we want to say that our business and social relations with Mr.

Woods have been most pleasant. He is a man whose word is as good as though surrounded with ten swearing irons, are badges of office worn by (notaries 1 public on their office tables and other places where swearing is profitable. When newspaper changes are made we know that it is customary and fashionable to make promises and keep them in the front window for a few weeks, or until the rent is due we have made these promises to our and if we don't tell them we will undoubtedly keep them. We hope to have a few calls from Poison Carrots and will be glad to see the hired man, and will extend to them our right hand and a bill for several years subscription. Speaking of job work, there will be no trouble in getting it here.

Both mornings and afternoons the job department of this office will always be eager and willing for more work. Subscription can be paid at any time, the present time preferred. In closing we will express the hope that spring will not be delayed on account of this change and that summer will be followed by a bountiful crop in the fall and that we all will be ready to get what we can of it a decent way, TAB FARGO' FORTM AND Y-KVENmG, FBfelttTAHY WOULD FREE HIS WlFfe -t i With all her faults I love her quoth Jake Becker, the wronged bos band whose family troubles have been the subject of considerable activity on the part of the authorities recently Mrs. Becker'is still, confined in county jail and Jake is a constant visitor. No information has yet been filed against the woman but Assistant State's Attorney Richardson announced this afternoon that the woman, would be sent to the penitentiary if such a thing is possible.

This morning Becker took his 2-yearold boy to the orphan's home. He has asked to withdraw the complaint against his wife, but this the state's attorney declines to do. ARNESON CASE and I have forgiven her." Becker has been advised, in view of the stand taken by the state's attorney, to leave the city and cross to Moorhead, but he declines to do this. He believes that his arguments may yet save his wife from a term in the pen. THE REAL Detroit Free Press: One half of the world's happiness is solved when a person learns to mind his own business." "Yes, but it's the other half that causes the most trouble." "What's that?" "Getting other people to aaind Arguments Were Submitted During: the Day and the Case the Jury.

The arguments in the case of Mrs. Maggie Arneson vs. the city of Fargo were completed this afternoon and brief instructions from JudgeKheeshaW the jury retired. John S. Frame made the opening argument for the city and he was complimented by his associates for his able presentation of the case.

His address was clear, logical, and concise, delivered well and carrying conviction. Mr. Frame is one of the youngest members of the Cass County bar but his argument this morning would have been a credit to a much more experienced attorney. Judge Newman followed Mr. Frame and briefly summed up the case for the city.

Both attorneys dwelt upon the fact that it had been shown that Mrs. Arneson's injuries, alleged to have been received by falling through a hole in the sidewalk, had been in reality due to the carelessness of her children, aggravated by her own carelessness in caring for her injuries. The fact that Mrs. Arneson had not called medical aid until five days after the accident was alleged to have occurred, was held by Judge Newman to be a suspicious circumstance and not favorable to the plaintiff's case. Besides Dr.

Weible who had first dressed the injuries, had not been called to testify. Judge Newman insinuated that the doctor's testimony Would have: been detrimental to Mrs. Arneson's interests. Taylor Crum spoke to a considerable length in the morning for he plaintiff and closed the this afternoon. Mr.

Crum objected to a statement made by Judge Kneeshaw that he desired to get through with the case so that could catch a night train for home. Mr. Crum asked that his objections be made a part of the record in the case. Judge explained to the jury that he had not meant to hurry or prejudice the jury in any way by his remark. The jury is composed of seven residents of Fargo and five residents from out of the city.

It is predicted around the courthouse tljis afternoon that the jury will disagree. i LITCHVILLE. -j "Lifcfivfte, Feb. 'Tht Fti'fum: Local machinery dealers are large stocks in anticipation of an extensive business the coming season. Hansen Olsen shipped another carload of cattle to South St.

The defendants are numbered amongst the oldest and most respected residents of the town and their rest is the outgrowth of factional differences which arose over a spirited municipal election held last spring.

Shortly after the election an itinerent "preacher'r and a couple of reputed "detectives," whom it afterwards developed bore rather unsavory reputations, arrived in town, and taking advantage of the situation caused the arrests above mentioned with the evident view of receiving the reward offered by the state. Subpoenas were issued for a large number of witnesses, among whom were included many prominent farmers and business men who knew nothing concerning the matter but have nevertheless been furnished some unenviable notoriety. Public indignation caused the preacher and detectives to seek a more congenial field in which to operate, and it is needless to add that a sultry reception awaits them, or others of their calibre, who attempt to inject themselves into the affairs of this community in the X.

HER UNCONSCIOUS LOYALTY. Harper's Weekly: A.laWyer making a specialty of divorce cases was recently consulted by a woman desirous of bringing actimi against her husband for separation. The lady related a harrowing story of her ill treatment at the hands of her better half. Indeed, the lawyer was'so impressed by her recital of woes that for a moment he was startled out of his usual professional composure.
