BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – A North Dakota man accused of breaking into a home and stealing a cellphone that was used to track him down pleaded guilty Tuesday to felony burglary. Twenty-two-year-old Pedro Morales Jr., of Medina, must serve 60 days in jail. Police say GPS tracking led an officer to the suspect.
BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – Nearly 100 North Dakota National Guard soldiers who served about a year of duty in Afghanistan are back on U.S. soil.
The Guard says the soldiers with the 818th Engineer Company arrived at Fort Bliss, Texas, on Tuesday night. They will go through the demobilization process before returning to North Dakota.
The 818th is based in Williston with a detachment in Hazen. The soldiers served as combat engineers in Afghanistan, clearing roadside bombs. Two soldiers died in the line of duty – Sgt. 1st Class Darren Linde of Devils Lake and Spc. Tyler Orgaard of Bismarck. A third soldier, Spc. Ian Placek of Bismarck, was wounded. He recently returned to Bismarck to continue his recovery.
BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – A retired Fargo pediatrician says some women may resort to “backroom” abortions if lawmakers approve a package of measures aimed at strengthening North Dakota’s already strict abortion laws. Today he urged a Senate committee to consider the effects of legislation that could shut down the state’s only abortion clinic.
BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – Budget analysts say the North Dakota Legislative session costs taxpayers $65,000 a day.
That comes to about $5.6 million over an 80-day session.
The North Dakota constitution limits North Dakota legislative sessions to 80 days every two years. A proposal has been introduced that would add another 40 days. That would bump the cost by $2.6 million.
The Legislature consists of 94 representatives and 47 senators. They’re paid $157 daily when the Legislature is in session, including Saturdays and Sundays.
FARGO, N.D. (AP) – A New York-based oil company has begun laying the groundwork for wells at the Killdeer Battlefield in western North Dakota. The Hess Corporation says it’s “progressing with early site preparation” and construction is expected to take place in the coming weeks. Opponents who wanted further study before drilling started say a lawsuit is unlikely because it would cost too much.
In sports…
GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) – Four University of North Dakota hockey players accused of supplying alcohol to minors at a team party last year are now pleading guilty.

VATICAN CITY (AP) – The 115 cardinals in the Vatican’s Sistine Chapel have signaled once again that they haven’t yet selected a new leader of the Roman Catholic church. Black smoke billowed from the chapel’s chimney this morning, just as it did yesterday, following the first day of voting. The cardinals will break for lunch and return for another two rounds of voting in the afternoon.
LAFITTE, La. (AP) – Smoke has been billowing from the scene of fire in a bayou south of New Orleans. The blaze was ignited yesterday when a tug boat pushing an oil barge slammed into a pipeline carrying liquid petroleum gas. Authorities have been waiting for the fire to burn out. The tug boat captain was seriously burned.
WASHINGTON (AP) – The House is expected to vote today on a bill that would block the Obama administration from waiving any work requirements in the 1996 welfare reform law. House Republicans say President Barack Obama is trying to get rid of the work requirement. The administration says state officials have been concerned that the welfare law’s work requirements create bureaucratic hurdles to placing welfare recipients in jobs.

The case has drawn international attention over allegations that more students should have been charged. A photo shows 16-year-old Ma’Lik Richmond and 17-year-old Trent Mays carrying the girl by her arms and legs. Richmond tells ABC’s “20/20” the photo was a joke and the girl was a willing participant.
NOME, Alaska (AP) – Fifty-three-year-old Mitch Seavey has become the oldest musher to win the Iditarod dog sled race. He and his 10 dogs were the first to cross the finish line last night in Nome, Alaska. Mitch Seavey first won the Iditarod in 2004.
