A young man traveling under the name of Frank Williams, practicing as an occultist, stopped at Minot a few days last week. He got so fresh by insulting young ladies that the men of Minot thought they would season him up a little, and accordingly proceeded to decorate him with unlimited numbers of rotten eggs. The crowd followed him to the car door of the west-bound train, and just as he was entering the car he received another volley of discarded hen fruit. He intended to stop at Williston, but he failed to get his toilet arranged in time to make a presentable appearance.
