In it's last issue the Times-Rec-
ord Of Valley City says. in re-
ferring to the last meeting Of the
judicial committee here:
The question seems to be
settled now ana those who dis
credited the former action of the
committee do not seem to have
gained any great amount of glory
or prestige by their questionable
methods.
The questionable methods in
which the people are interested
in their endeavor to secure
justice are those pursued by
Judge Glaspell IN his snap meet
ing in room of the Gladstone,
March 9. The Judge had every
opportunity to know that Chair
man Bartlett was in Jamestown
at the time he called the three
members of the committee to-
gether. He knew Secretary
Wallace was in the city, as also
was Delegate Burke of Valley
City. Chairman Bartlett had
written and wired the Judge he
! would be here that day and he
! was seen to arrive here by one
who attended the judges rump
meeting. Ignorance cannot be
pleaded to the Indictment. But
in view of all this the Judge
called the members together
knowing full vel! that he was do
ing a very questionable" act.
ill betitting the dignity Of a judge
who is looked to to use that justice
and fairness which he swears he
will dispense in the interpreta-
ton of law.
The people are interested in
the official acts of their servants
and have a right to know the
minutest detail. If ''question.
able methods" are used by the
Judge in his endeavors to secure
a denomination, the people have
a right to inquire into his past
history to determine if this is
the exception or the rule. Nc
one will hire an employee with
out knowing something of his
record. Is he worth the pay:
Is he capable, ready and willing
to perform without watching the
duties imposed upon him? All
tthese must be answered before
employment begins. Capital.

In it's last issue, of March 8,
the Courier has an editorial on
the Puerto Rican tariff bill. in
which the writer expresses the
belief that the opposition to the
bill largely grew out of the fact
that people did not understand
it. He said it was not a tariff of

FOOLED THE FIREMEN
A Thrilling Scene in Chicago with
Ludicrops Ending.
Frantic woman at a window Leads

der To Rescue Her and She
Asks where Fire Is.

AT $3.50 O'Clock the other night an
alarm OF fire sounded from box at
Fifty-iifth street and jackson avenue,
Chicago. The Hyde Park companies
made hurried preparations for the run,
and within II few seconds after the call
engine company No. GO and truck No.
As were coming down Fifty-ffth street
with their horses on the dead run.
AS they neared the Keene flats at
Firty-tfth and Jackson avenue the fire.
men were Mortified TO see a woman lean
ing out of the building shouting and
gcsticulating wildly. The truck driver
lashed his horses until they fairly flew
over the ground, and the tiremen cling
ing to the side of the apparatus shouted
for the woman not 10 jump. as help
would soon be at hand. The roar OF
the engines coming over the cobble
stones drowned out he wonan's cries,
but apparently she was IN great agony,
aud the tiremen thought that the flames
must be creeping near her every mo-
ment. The truck drew up in front of
the building, and a dozen willing hands
threw up II ladder to the window in
which she stood.
Hold ON, for Gods sake, hold" shout
ed Fireman William Donohue, as he
started to ascend to the top.
The cries of the woman came faint
ly IL his ears and spurred him 10
greater effort.
In her excitement the woman leaned
farther out of the window, and t0the
watchers below it seemed as if she had
10 the street below.
Don't jump" they shouted. you'll
be safely rescued in minute"
The woman seemed to comprehend,
for she stood still and waited. Fire
man Donohue climbed to the sill and
held up his arms. To his amazemeDt,
the woman made no effort to climb into
the ladder. Instead, she only wrung
her hands and askeu:
"Oh. where is the fire? I know it
must he at one of the neighbpr's. Where
is he fire, Mr.. Fireman.
WHAT" exclaimed the astonished
Donohue, "ain't the fire in your fat 2"
"No, no." cried the woman. But |
am so anxious about it, because l know
that some of my friends are losing their
property
y great light suddenly dawned on
the bewiIdered fireman. A softly NUT
tered expression escaped his lips, and
then he gave vent to his disgust by
throwing his legs around the ladder
and sliding TO the ground in faster
time than he had ever done the trick
before.
whats the matter?" asked his
chief.
"She wanted to know where the fire
was" answered Donohue, hopelessly.

Henry Sienkiwicz, tn, Polish ro-
mancer, which will be produced at the
Auditorium Tuesday night, March 20.
must rank as one Of the important
productions of the season. The wcn-
derful popularity of the book, the

with Ben Hur," which. as dramatic
spectacle, has just been triumphantly
presented at the Broadway Theatre,

the birth of Christianity and both be-

promise CT a splendid setting for the
actors to play in, and the general in
terest in new and untried dramatic
enterprise, all tend to make this an
event. Manager Alden Benedict has
spared no expense in putting the
drama on the stage and hopes to win a
triumph with its production. Scent

scenes having been built for its illus
tration. One cf the best performances
seen here in years is promised. Seats

Sousa's only visit to this city will
occur on Tuesday afternoon, March 20,
at 2:30 His appearance with his full
band and soloists has a sharper relish
from the fact that less than ninety
places in the whole of the United
States will have Sousa concert be-
fore next season. Every person at all
interested in matters musical must
naturally feel certain pride in this
as having place among the favored.
A European tour is the cause of the
short season here. Sousa announces
programmes bristling with new feat
ures. The special soloists are Miss
Bertha Bucklin, violiniste, and Miss
