Thomas.

Two daughters Of Mr.. and Mrs. Matt
Jersky, one aged eighteen years and
the other two years, were burned to
death in the Great Northern section
house at St. Thomas, fourteen miles
north of Grafton. Jersky has been sec
ton foreman for several years, but
recently inherited some money and had
invested this in a farm lee st. Thorn
as. having resigned his position as
foreman and made all arrangements
to live on the farm. He and his wife
left for the farm, leaving three Of their
children at the section house. The
eldest daughter was in poor health and
at times subject to fits. 1t is supposed
the girl was taken with one of her
spells and in some way upset the lamp,
setting the house on fire. Of the three
children in the house the only one
who escaped was the eight-year-old
boy. and his hands were terribly
burned in trying to save his little sis
ter. He dragged her to the door, where
the remains were found. The parents
were sent for and reached the building
before the house was entirely con-
sumed. A search for the remains OF
the children was begun as soon as the
fire was burned out.

FARGO Contractors EIated.

Intense citation is expressed by Fargo
contractors and builders over the de-
cision of the state supreme court IN
declaring the capitol commission meas
ure unconstitutional. The measure
was attacked by the builders because
of the vague terms in which to call
for bids for the new capitol building
was framed by the commission. This
led to a fight on the unconstitutional
ity of the measure. Incidentally there
is considerable rejoicing over the de
cision by the reform" element in this
state, who have always opposed the
capitol bill. They insisted hat the
was hurried through the leg
islature without there being h slight
est demand for such a building as
was proposed, and that the present
capitol, recently enlarged and remod-
eled. will be good for the next twenty
years, by which time the state capitol
lands will have increased III value and
q magnificent structure can be erected.

Shortly after the Heppner flood two
years ago tiny infant about three
weeks old was found. All efforts
during the past two years to locate
any history relative to the parentage
of the child has failed. Mr.. and Mrs.
|. b. Hewett, living near Lyle, took
the child, and today it is one of the
prettiest in the neighborhood. In a
quiet way the work of tracing the
child is going on. but the supposition
is that the parents perished in the
Hood that swept the canon. Mrs,
Hewett, while anxious to locate some
thing about the child's parents, would
dislike to lose it, for the little one Las
won a warm place in the hearts of all
in the Hewett household.
