TWO CHILDREN POISONED.
Beinldjl Has Sad Case of Mcdicinc
Poisoning.
Two of the children of Herman
Konoske have died, one at 4 o'clock
p. m. and the other at 8 p. m. Caskets
for the babes were secured at Lahr's
undertaking parlors this morning and
the funeral will be held Saturday,
the remains to be interred in the Nary
cemetery.
The dead children are two of the
four comprising the family of Mr. and
Mrs. Herman Konoske, who live a'
mile and a' half north of Nary. Each
of the four was given a dose of worm
medlcihe Monday morning before
breakfast and in'a short time became'
very ill: A physician was summoned
in the afternoon and after his admin
istrations the children became some
what better and it was thought that
they would recover.
Subsequently they all took a turn for
the worse and two- of .them, aged five
and sev.en years, succumbed. The
other two are both ,in a critical Con
dition and Dr. Marcum, who attended
them, states-that there is little If any
hope for the recovery of the son, three
years of age. The remaining daughter,
eight years of age, is lying between
life and death but It is thought pos
sible that she may recover.
All the children hfeve suffered ter
rible pains since taking the medicine,
which was in the form of powders
and was secured by Mr. Konoski 'from
a brother in prescription for worm
medicine which he and Mr Konoski
had often used when children. It is
believed that the druggist who filled
the prescription substituted by mis-'

Mrs. Olive Benson Allowed to Prove
on Clearwater Claim.
Mrs. Olive Benson, wife of Ex-Judge
of Probate Benson of Polk county
many years ago, and who later com
mitted suicide through certain events,
appeared before the Crookston land
office today lo make final proof in one
of the most complicated cases that has
ever occurred there for some time.
The case Involved a claim in Clear
water county.
Mrs. Benson's homestead right to
the claim was contested and the local
land office upheld the contention of
the contestor, disallowing the claim
by Mrs. Benson, who straightway ap
pealed the matter to the secretary of
the interior at Washington. The sec
retary modified the decision of the
Crookston Land office and allowed her
entry to stand unless the contestant,
thirty days after notice, should appear
and make homestead entry.
He failed to appear as it was clairft
ed that he had no right to do so while
the contest was pending. She made'
commutation proofs which today were
accepted as final proof by the Crooks
ton-department.
AWANT8 JOINT HEARING.
Aldermon Sherloek Proposes Joint
Hearing of Cities on Franchise.
Chairman Sherlock of the ordinance
committee is now in favor of having
a joint meeting of the proper commit
tees of Grand Forks and Bast Grand
Forks to consider the merits of what
is known aa the Healy franchise or
dinance which haB passed its fijrst
reading on the East Side and will
probably be introduced in the Grand
Fprks council at an early date. The
other member of the committee seen

termined, but It Is though by rough
estimate that the amount of the rob
bery will reach the $200 mark. There
if? no clue to the whereabouts of the
thieves and they' are though to be a
part of that body of men who have
been working throughout the north
west these late weeks.
The property that was taken from
the store of the Fisher merchants is
composed chiefly of merchandise,
shoes and clothing. The money which
was safely stowed away In the safes,
the robbers did not attempt to break
into. It .is thought thfct the robbers
entered the store at two o'clock and
departed immediately, probably north

Sad Accident at lirskine.

An Egg Social.
The egg social at Mendenhall

give a decidedly pleasing effect.

Home From Blackduck.
Geo. Elliott of the East Grand

Pansy Club Entertained.
The Pansy club was delightfully en

on the West Side last night. .Cards

THI EVENING TIMES, QRAMD FORKS, R. D.
REGOOB Of BASKET
MIL TEAM OF
lIC. A.
The Fast Aggregation Has
Won 16 Out of 19 Games—
Individual Records.
The Y. M. C. A. basketball team has
closed the most successful season ex
perienced by any Grand Forks team,
and although a weelc'e trip to Winni
peg and other towns to the northward
was contemplated, the boys have de
cided to wait a year, when it is not
unlikely they will undertake a trip
to last several weeks.
Out of a total of nineteen games
played, the Y. M. C. A. lost but three,
and two of these three were dropped
on a strange* floor. Much credit is
due Athletic Director Fitzgerald and
Manager Fred Willson for giving this
city its first real successful basket
ball team.
A brief- summary of the players
and their work might not be improper.
There are no two players in the state
that work better together than do
Woods and Dietz, the forwards. Be
tween them there is but little choice
as regards playing ability and both
have often demonstrated that they
can hold their own against much
heavier men. Before coming to Grand
Forks, Woods played two seasons on
a high school team. Dietz has also
had several years' experience prior
to coming here, having played with a
Brookyln, N. Y„ athletic club. Cap
tain Fawcett probably has no peer in
the state in his position at center. He
is strong, speedy and accurate and
has out-jumped every man he has met
during the season, and at the same
time but few goals have been scored
against him.
In the guarding department the Y.
M. C. A. is lucky in having three such
mn as Chlttick, Albertson and Wood.
Though new at the game when the
season began, all three have since
gained knowledge by consistent work
and three goals is the best record any
forward has been able to pull off
against them in a contest.
The following table shows the num
ber of goals made during the season
by each man, and the number of
games played In.

The suit has been occupying the at

past several days and owing to tho
prominence of the parties thereto, who
are well known farmers residing near
Emerado, the interest has been great.
Plaintiff in her complaint charged
the defendant with cruel and inhuman
treatment and asked in addition to the
separation, a division of $8,000 worth
of property. The defendant fought the
suit and both sides swore in over
twenty-five witnesses.
