American Red Cross Society, who has JUS,
Isturned from the international Red Cross
conference at Vienna, said that, excepting
this country, the leading nations had
passed laws protecting the title and insig-

Barton said: ...
1t was humiliating to confess before that
great assemblage that in our own en-
hghtencd country there are 2S4 persons,
corporations and firms who are using the
name and sign of the Red Cross as a trade
mark for private gain: that there
are innumerable bodies Of people here
who have founded Red Cross societies for
local purposes who are in no way connect

Red Cross delegates We're amazed to learn
that the wealthy men of this great repub-

School Destroyed by Fire.
The girls dormtory of the State Reform
School at Plankinton was destroyed by fire
shortly after midnight Tuesday night.
Seven lives were lost, six little girls and
their teacher.
The fire started in the basement and had
gained such headway that all the children
could not be rescued.
The building was large one and being
constructed of wood it burned FAST hardly
anything in the way of clothing or valua-
bles being saved. The victims We're:
Tillie Hooper, in charge of the sewing de-
partment: Nellie Johnson, aged Is, of
Grafton, N. D.: Mabel Fobert, aged 9, of
OF Sioux Falls; Bessie Kirby, aged IA, of
Hot Springs: Iva Warner, aged 10, of
Watertown; Christine Bergman aged IL,
OF 4ankton; Lillian West, aged II, Iowa
Falls, Iowa.
Twenty-Five escaped in their night
clothes. The loss is $4,000 The fire prob
ably originated from the explosion of a
lamp.
The bodies of the seven burned to death
have not all been taken out, but the posi-
tion of those found indicates that they be-
came bewildered and rushed to the rear,
where there was no available exit.

FOR CAPITAL PUNISHMENT.
Gov. Leedy of Kansas Won't Show
Mercy to Murderers

In an interview Monday afternoon at
Topeka, Kan, Gov. Leedy' advocated cap
ital punishment for murder in the first
degree. The present Kansas law provides
that person convicted of murder in the
first degree shall remain in the peniten-
tiary one year at least, and then shall not
be hung until the governor signs the death
warrant.
There are about fifty persons in the pen
itentiary sentenced TO be hanged, but who
are permitted to live because no governor
of Kansas has signed their death warrants
Gov. Leedy says he will not sign their
warrants, as that was the duty of preced-
ing governors, but he intimates that he
will sign the warrants for the execution of
all murderers sentenced TO hang during
his term of Office
