"J. C. R.," who was heralded about the state as a man of mysteTy and as the long lost son of the late J. H. Caldwell, a wealthy ranchman who re sided at Dickinson, is in Seattle, where he is said to be subsisting on charity. An effort was made in "J. C.

The total assessed valuation of the state of North Dakota for the year 1918 reaches the very respectable sum of $403,422,258, according to a very interesting compilation issuing' from the department of the state aud itor.

To enforce their demand for pay ment of their salaries during the per iod that the city schools were closed by reason' of the influenza epidemic, teachers in the Hettinger schools went •n strike. They dismissed their pu pils a half hour after sessions had Convened, on receiving notice that no salary allowance would be made by the board to cover the period that the schools had been closed.

A feature of the Ransom county district court Tuesday was the plea of guilty by Alexander Clem Jaworski, the Enderlin bigamist, and the sen tence given him by the court. He drew 3 1-2 years in the penitentiary. The betft thing that can be said of Jaworski at this time is that he was man enough to own his guilt and take his medicine. But as a man sows, so he reaps—tares not wheat in his case. Blinded by the headlight of a train, John Schmidt of Richardton steered his car directly into one which con tained C. R.

The fire was first dis covered by Babe Sanden, who woke Andrew Kragerud, who gave tfcs alarm, but when the crowd got there it was too late to save anything.
