LOSES HER CHILDREN.
Mrs. Carlson Defeated in Her Suit
Against chiidren's Home Society.

Mrs. Carlson Defeated In Her Suit
Against chiidren's Home Society.
Judge Fisk of the district court at
Grand Forks, has decided the case of
Mrs. Elizabeth Carlson against the
Children's Home Society of Fargo, in
favor of the defendant.
The action was brought to recover
possession of four children awarded
to the home by the county court of
Nelson county, three of whom have
found good homes in the state by
adoption.
The plaintiff was formerly Mrs.
Beamer and she lived at Michigan
City. She secured divorce from her
husband and the court gave her the
custody of her four children. Finally
she became county charge and it
was charged she was an unfit person
to have care of the children. Proceed.
ings were started in the county court,
with the result that the four children
were turned over to the Childrens
home officials, and three of them have
since been adopted by good families.
Florence, the eldest child, returned
to the mother voluntarily.
Mrs. Beamer married and moved to
a farm near Lakota, and started pro-
ceedings in the county court at La
kota, asking that the court set aside
the decree and return to her the GUS
tody of her children. This was denied
by that court and an appeal was taken
to the district court, with the result
that Judge Fisk held that the proceed
ings in the county court were regular
and that he had no authority to set
the decree aside. The motion was de.
MED and the three children will re.
main in the homes provided for them
by the society.

be provided for In the basement, but q
separate building will be provided for
the boiler rooms and laundry about a
hundred feet in the rear of the main
building.
/. The plans are to be perfected as
quickly as possible, and bids called for
the putting in of the basement this
fall. It is expected that the plans for
the basement will be ready for con-
tractors to figure on within two weeks,
and the work pushed to completion be-
fore cold weather sets in. SO that work
on the superstructure will proceed in
the spring as soon as the weather
will permit.
The hospital will be equipped with
all the latest of modern appliances and
heated with the Webster vacuum sys-
TEN and fitted throughout with cleo
trio lights, gas, bells, telephones AMI
an electric elevator running from
basement to the top floor.
The building will be of solid brick.
faced with pressed brick and cut stone,
lined with hollow tile, and will have a
heavy projecting cornice and a fine
portico over the main entrance.
Large promenade balconies will be
built on each floor in the rear, and
spacious sun rooms will be provided
at either end of the main corridor on
the principal floors, with the business
Offices and reception rooms on the first
floor.
The total cost of the main building,
boiler house and laundry, exclusive of
furnishings, will be at least $4,000.
Hancock Bros, Fargo, have planned
a number Of buildings of this class for
st. Joseph's Sisters, and are entirely
familiar with their needs, and they
will have charge of the work until the
building is completed, which it is
hoped to have ready for occupancy
early.next fall.
st. Michael's hospital will be one Of
the largest and most complete hospl-
tai buildings in the Northwest, consid.
erably larger than st. Johns hospital
at Fargo.

Bio FISH IN HOLLOW LOGS.
Great Catches Of Catfish Made Riaht
In q SawmllI.

In q Sawmili.
At this time Of year the men who
are working in the sawmills along the
Mississippi River are somewhat pug.
zled to decide precisely what their oc.
cupation Is. Sometimes they think
they are mill men and sometimes they
think they are fishermen.
Catfish seem to be the 'coons and
'possums Of the river world. They
take to the hollow logs. which they
find among the RATS tied up near the
sawmills.
In June the men who work the loss
up to the carriages which take them
to the saws begin to watch for hollow
specimens. When they find one Of
that sort they are pretty sure of biz
catfish hiding inside.
At Burlington a large number Of fish
weighing from three to ten pounds
each have been taken in this way
during the last few weeks. One black
catfish weighing thirty-eight pounds
was caught about two weeks ago.
The prize was an immense blue cat
fish, four feet in length and weighing
fifty-eight pounds. The sawmill fisher.
men were not prepared for such big
fellow and he jumped clear through
their net. He would have escaped to
the water but for a man with can't
hook, who despatched the prize. Tho
fish netted his captor 81 when he had
been dressed and cut into steaks.

As TO POLITICAL ADVERTISING.

The advent Of another campaign is
making busy days for the political
holdup. There is never any trouble for
the candidates to find some one TO re-
lieve them of surplus money with prom
ises of get-rich-quick results in big
blocks of votes to be delivered on cleo
ton day. The campaign time is harvest
time for the political holdups and es-
pecially of the publishers of hOldup
newspapers big and little, who attempt
to sell for what the traffic will bear.
The Bee has never INDUCED in these
holdup practices and does not intend to
begin now. That there may be no mis-
understanding of its position, il is not
out of order for us to say that The Bee
does not and will not solicit political adj
vertlsing irrespective Of the practices of
it's local competitors. The Bee will
have unbought opinions and preferences
of its own to express and will give ut
terance to them freely. 1t will cover
the news Of the campaign without fear
or favor so as to keep the voters fully
informed as to candidates and issues.
At the same time The Bee, like all
newspapers, has advertising space for
SALE There are many political an
nouncements that constitute legitimate
advertising. The Bees advertising col
umns will be open to such announce
ments, subject, however, to inspection
and rejection and distinct understand
ing that the paper in no way commits
itself thereby either to the support Of
such candidates or the truthfulness Of
the claims they put forth for themselves.
We hereby serve notice on all candi-
dates for Office that no one is author
lied TO solicit political advertising for
this paper and that anyone pretending
to do so is an imposter.

The sudden improvement of the health
OF Judge" Andrew Hamilton and his
return TO this country should contribute
to public health and reform of insur-
ance and legislative methods If he will
now furnish the information which as
legislative agent of several of the big
insurance companies he cannot fail to
have, but large part of which his sug-
gestive absence in foreign parts pre-
vented the Armstrong committee from
getting. Even at this late day full de-
tails would be useful for our lawmakers
who are about to legislate with view
to putting an end to corrupt manipula-
ton by insurance lobbyists.
One of the most glaring malfeasanees
OF life insurance management was
shown by the fact, ndubltably estab-
lished in the investigation, that hun
dreds OF thousands of dollars of the
funds OF the big life companies were
placed at the disposal OF Hamilton as
their agent to be used to influence the
action OF the New York and other legls-
latures, that such misappropriation Of
funds was systematically made over a
series Of years and yet that this was
done without record means OF audit or
information for the public officials, the
public generally or even the policy hold
ers 20 whom the funds belonged. The
broad implication is that the money
either was stolen through collision OF
insurance oficials and their agents or
was used to corrupt legislatures, or
went for both those purposes.
