H. Rogers of Aqpisvtlje HeJd Up
mi Robbed Last Nlgi* J*.
'Ode drove.
Yesterday Mr. RogdWcarrie to Fargb
from Argiisvilfe and spent the day here
transacting business. About 8 o'clock
fast" evening as 'lie was ill the act of
untying"his horse on Broadway, pre
paratory to leaving for Argttsvtflc, he
was approached by a stranger.
"You are Mr. Rogers and you buy
furs, do you not?" asked the stranger.
Mr. Rogers admitted his identity and
stated that he was a fur buyer. The
fellow then fcaid that he had a very
handsome collection of skihs near the
residence of Colonel Morton in Oak
Grove, which he would like to sell. He
described some very handsome furs and
named'a very low price for them. Mr.
Rogers looked upon the deal with favbr
and thought the time opportune to pur
chase the skins,
"Get right into my rig and yni'Il drive
out," said Mr. Rogers. i
''All fight," said the stranger, and
the two gentlemen started, in the direc
tion of Oak Qrove.
Just on the other side of the Oak
Grove residence district,1 and in a se
cluded spot the strtfn&er1 told Mr.
Rogers to stop the horse and get out.
"The skins are right over here," he
said, pointing to a house.
Mr. Rogers complied. When he
struck the earth the fellow said, as he
flashed a- revolver "in the for buyer's
face:
"Throw «p your hands and deliver
your money."
While the stranger held him covered
with the gUn he instructed hihi to use
one hand in going through his pockets.
Mr. Rogers remembered that he had
in loose change and coin in his pants"
pockets something like $9 or $10 and
that in a little purse in the same pocket
he had $45. When he put his hand in
his pocket he dexterously pulled the
purse out of his pocket and dropped it
by the road side. He then handed over
to the hold-up the change. He was then
commanded to take off his watch. He
complied with the request and handed
his gold time piece to the man. Mr.
Rogers was then ordered to drive on
and the hold-up disappeared in tbe
darkness.
CHURCH BUSINESS MEETIK9.
The twenty-second annual meeting of
the First Congregational Church of
Fargo was held in thri church last night
and the attendance was considered very
good.
The pastor. Rev. Dr. Dickinson, pre
sided. After roll call and the disposal
of the minutes the annual reports of the
several committees were read. They all
showed very encouraging conditions for
th church, especially in the increase of
membership from the ranks of the
young people, or to use the technical
term of one of the means of joining the
church, by confession. The trustees
made a very inspiring report regarding
the new parsonage which is ready for
occupancy and which is practically paid
for, the debt balancc being very insig
nificant compared with the cost of the
structure, a Commodious modem and
solidly comfortable house, which will
prove a very useful adjunct to the
church edifice near where it stands.
At the close of the business meeting
those assembled formed into a social
gitberinguwhich was very much enjoy
e(L1 the refreshments being served by
the members .of the Woman's Union of
the church. T^he present church officers
were re-elected, showing that the conL
gregationhas perfect confidence in their
ad^iis^ation .of t.be secular affairs! of
tne society.

Vy. H. Rogers -was the victim last
night of one of the most daring and hi

ups ever perpetrated in Fargo. Mfi

OLD
N
It is more than likely that the fellow
knew who Mr. Rogers was, and be
lieved that he carried a large sum of
money on his person. He undoubtedly
had planned to hold him up in the road
after he left the city, but the fur selling
scheme evidently appealed 0 him as
being better, and if this failed he could
resort to the old-fashioned straight
hold-up.
The matter was reported to the po
lice department this morning. Officer
Jackson wa6 assigned- to look into the
hold-up. He visited the scene and suc
ccfcded in finding the purse, which had
been thrown by tne road side and which
contained $45. He returned, this to Mr.
Rogers and received $5 for his trouble.
1 he police and sheriflfs department
have taken the matter up, but so far "no
arrests have been made or has a clue
been obtained.

QUEER "HOSSV CA3E|:
Miribt Optic: Some moons ago Hes
ken slater lost a horse—a neighbor
took the horse up, advertised it, but
failed to notify the county auditor.
While the horse was in the possession of
the man who took it up. the owner came
one night and took it /away- The
man who had taken the horse up had
him arrested for stealing his own prop
erty. The court held that since the
man who took up the horse did not obey
the law as regards to advertising there
was no cause for action and therefore
the case was taken from the ucy, $uid
decided in favor of the defendarit. V.

that is not all. Fall plowing is the best
for crops any year. It retains the
moisture longer and can.be planted just
as soon as the snow is gone in the
spring—as soon as the frost is out of
the ground two inches the farmer need
not be idle. There is no excuse for: the
man who is late getting in his crop.:

Court Stories.
John McGlynn, a giant, who' said his
home was in Wahpeton, arid tfiat he
was a blacksmith by trade, appeared be
fore Judg« Gearey in city court this
^morning on-a charge'-of drunkenness.
"How tall are you?" enquired the
coujk.4'. I
"Si^ fc|t.f sij| and Itli^ee-qfjarters
(inches,'v sail McGlynn w&H a ^Tin.
''What's your business?"
"Blacksmith," and-the fellow doubled
[up an ahti as big as a good sized tree.
"Did you bring hiin in all. by your
self?" asked the judge of Patrolman
Jackson, incredulotisfy..
"1 wouldn't strike a man smaller than
myself, judge,' said the giant., {,
"You would never strike anyone then,
I guess," said the court. "Discharged."
"I see you're back," said the court,
as he looked into, the face of the fair
'May Adams, who paid a $10 fine in city
[court on a vagrancy charge Tuesday
morning.
"Yes sir^' and May smiled a, sickly
smole.
Beside her in the prisoner's dock was
seated, a much fairer and more fasci
natirtg companion, bundled, in an ele
gant seal skin coat, and with her neat
ly arranged tresses peeping out from
under a costly hat, covered with a bank
of expensive ostrich plumes. When she
smiled, and she smiled quite often, she
expdsed a set 6f very regular teeth, al
most wholly made of gold.
"And Leola Jones, that is your
name?" said the coitrt, as 'he turned in
the direction of the handsome, smiling
girl, "yciu are charged with vagrancy.
You are a new one here. How do you
girls wish to plead?"
"To vagrancy?" asked May with the
rising inflection on the "vangrancy."
"That is the charge," said the judge.
"Well, we're not vags," chimed in
Leola. "but I expect it will be chcaper
to plead -guilty."
1
"Quite right," said the cpurfc! 'T1J
make your fines $20 each, or you can
serve sixteen days in the city jail. DP
you want to pay the fine?"
"Yes, but we'll have to see that
'friend' again," said May, as she cast
a smile in the direction of Leola.
"Coming pretty hard 011 the 'friend*
isn't it, $50 in a single week?" suggested
the court, as the girls rang fc$.^ mes
senger boy en route back to the city
jaili,- ,S '.
Something of a. nuptial tragedy was
developed in police court this morning.
On last Wednesday the guests had
gathered at a northside home to wit
ness the marriage at high noon of a
couple whose names are withheld by
request of the still prospective bride
Two little girls with baskets of flowers
were ready for the procession to the
double parlors and the musicians were
gathering for the dance, which was to
follow. The room had'* been decorated
at the cost of much time and labor and
the cooks had been busy preparing good
things for two days. Now the guests
began to grow uneasy. The bridegroom
had not appeared.. The minutes passed
and soon the young bride was in tears.
Her bridesmaids tried to comfort her.
Soon Annie, that is the bride's Chris
tian name, dried, her tears. She re
membered the "dowry" of $16 "she had
handed to Ole that very morning.
A half hour later she was at the office
of the state's attorney swearing out a
w,arrant for the bridegroom's arrest 011
a charge of petit larceny. But nqt to
have Ole punished.
Dear me, no. Annie was going to
have Ole found if it took all the officers
in Cass County to do' it.
That was a week ago. -.
This morning in police court the mis
sing man was arraigned. There Ole
explained that he had spent the $16
celebrating with friends "the last two
day of his bachelorhood," thus, at the
same time, explaining why he had not
shown up at the wedding. He ffegged
forgivenfcss. Annie was forgiving jhd
Judge Gearey marked "discharged"
against his name-
Ole and Annie left the' courtroom
hand in haiid. The wedding wfll'bfe next
Wednesday, if Ole keeps sober, and he
promised the court that he would.
"Rpy Smith, J»u .are charged with
