In speaking of the aims OF the State
Historical society Secretary w. F. Cush-
ing said:
"The plan of organization of the 80
clety is to appoint a vice president, or
historian, for each county in the state,
who will have authority to organize q
county auxiliary to the state society, the
appointee to act as the first president of
the local society. These appointments
are made so that the county societies
may be organized under the state society,
IN order that uniformity may be had in
the system of gathering historical data,
etc. 1t is hoped the county historians
will enter heartily into the work, and
will enlist the interest of every old settler
IN this important matter. Everyone
having knowledge of interesting events
IN the early history of their county is in
vlted to write up the facts as best they
can and send the sam to their county
society, or to the secretary of the state
society at Bismarck, if no local society
has yet been formed. It is our design to
publish these bits of history from time
to time, and eventually codify them into
a state history, published under the aus
plces of the state society. All inquiries
as to the manner of organizing local
branches of the society, if addressed to
Mrs. Linda w. Slaughter, Bismarck, our
corresponding secretary, will be cheer
fully answered"
Which John IL This?
Pioneer Press: John Donovan of Bis
marck, came down to st. Paul Tuesday
to see the sights. He went to the wine
looms at the Woodbine saloon, Robert
and Seventh streets, and while there
quafed a number of drinks in the COM
pany of the women who gather there.
He became particularly infatuated with
the charms Of Josie M%attson, and left
the Woodbine in her company. That
was the last he knew, he tells the police,
until he found the fairy had touched him
for his funds.
At 4 o'clock yesterday morning Josie
was arrested with Harry Williams on
the charge Of disorderly conduct. When
she appeared in the municipal court
Judge Orr gave her sixty days in the
Workhouse and suspended the sentence
after she promised to leave the city.
Nothing was known then of the Dono-
van affair. Donovan complained to Chief
Clark last night, and Josie was rear
rssted on the charge of larceny. Will
Jams was discharged on account of his
good behavior while in the lookup.
