"Uncle Bill" Mumby Dead On Monday morning, July 19, William R. Mumby, Sr., quietly passed away at a Williston hos" pi(al, his demise being due to blood poisoning resulting from injuries received in an automobile accident in the vicinity of Mon. dak some two months ago. Af ter being conveyed to the hospi tal he was so nearly restored to hea^h as to permit of his leav~ ing the institution, but a relapse occurred with subsequent blood poisoning, precipitating compli cations that even the magnificent constitution of Mr. Mumby could not withstand. The news of the death of "Un cle Bill", as he was familiarly known to so many people, was received in Fairview with pro found regret. For lhe past year and a hatff, in conjunction with his son, C. M. Mumby, he has been engaged in &e publication of the Fairview Time?, and in that capacity had won a most en. viable reputation, while at the same 'me forming many of the same time forming many strong friendshripes and attachments. He was a briliant and prolific writer, ranking in ability with the most noted journalist of the northwest, and the call of "30" has removed from the neswpaper fraternity of North Dakota its most striking and conspicuous figure. "Uncle Bill" was a remarkable character, and a past master in the art of printing. Big-hearted generous and wfiole-souTed, fTis kindlv disposition made him be' loved by everyone with whom he came in contact. Ready at all times to share his last dollar with some less fortuna(e fellow-man. tio deserving appeal was ever made to him in vain. In the development and uo V»tiildin«r of North Dakota "Uncle Bill" Mumbv played a prominent and meritorious part inherently a booster of the most progressive rharacter, he s*w in 'he early days the possibilities of which his state was capable, and zealously and unremitt:n?ly did he apply his prolific pen in giving publicity to the resources of the common wealth in which he had so long made his home, and in the devel" opment and expansion of which he had so long displayed the most admirable and commend able pride. The funeral services were held Wednesday afternoon at Willis ton, and interment was made in the cemetery adjacent to that city. Hundreds were present to Chronicle Real Estate Exchange pay the last sad tribute to the honored pioneer, many coming from far distant points to wit ness the obsequies. Mr. Mumby was 72 years of age, but up to the time of the accident resulting in his death he was as hale, active vigorous and well preserved as the average man of fifty. In unison with a host of frienls The Times joins in extending the most sincere condolences to the bereaved family, and especially do we accord our sympathy to Mr. C. M. Mumby, publisher of our contemporary.—Fairview (Mont.) Times.

These bills tell the pubic that there will be seen the last remnant of the real dyed'in-lhe wool west. The home of the champions of the world and the wildest busch of ringtailed wrang lers and buckaroos between the Brazos and the Missouri. Come on. hook 'em cow! "Medora, the historic bad land metropolis, home of Roosevelt and DeMores, real western at mosphere. On the banks of the Little Missouri." The posters go on to say that this is no boom celebration, en* gineered by professional show men, but a genuine honest-to. God blowout by real everyday cowpunchers in their own home town." There will be a big barbecue of "young grass fed beef and bur goo, fit for a king and plenty for thousands." There is a big prem ium list for the numerous events that will be. pulled off. One of the features will be a big cowbov dance open day and night with two bands and two orchestras. There will be two tribes of In. dians present to give their nativ* games and participate in the wild horse races.

NICE, DAINTY |ATING. The Appetising Artificial Snail as It Is Made In Paris. In the Farm and Fireside Herbert Quick, editor at that publication, writes an article about the use of va rious meats as food. He shows bow our Ideas of food do not always con form to the Ideas of other peoples. He says that, for example,'in Japan the meat of a red dog Is a great delicacy and that in Prance since the Franco Prussian war horse meat has been quite frequently used. In the follow ing extract from his article be tells how artificial snails are xnadq in Paris: "Within a year or so a workman ln Paris sued his employer for personal injuries incurred in bis work as a mak er of -artificial snails.
