The grand march was a pageant
long to be remembered. Preceded by
the reception committee and led by
the Governor and Mrs. Burk, 1t left
the executive offices in which the re-
ception had been held, and wound
slowly up the stairways and through
the corridors to the spacious assembly
room of the House Of Representatives.
Following Governor Burke were two
ex-governors and their wives-E. Y.
Sarles Of Hillsboro and Frank White
of Valley City. Next came the state
officials with their families and
guests; and then followed the long
line of visitors from all parts OF the
state and of towns people. The pres
ence of Captain Bolles and of Lieuten-
ants Conway, Powell, Davis and Ell
lott from Fl. Lincoln, in uniform, to-
vn,3kh Sho - &H>n

in the city, added brilliancy to the pro-
cession. The lightness and simmer
ing beauty of the toilettes of the lad

costumes of the men formed a vision
of beauty as. the long procession
marched through the divided line of
the reception committee, passed twice
around the hall, doubled across the
ballroom floor and quickly broke into
groups of merry dancers. It is esti-
mated there were 600 people in the
hall including spectators. In some
dances over 200 were on the floor at
time. Many extras were added to the
twelve numbers of the program and |
there was no pause in the enjoyment
until the strains of Home, Sweet,
Home" broke up the dance we'll on |
towards morning. Rupert's orchestra
of Fargo furnished the best of music.
Especially appreciated were the voilin
solos by Miss Marie Paige of Fargo
and Miss Christiana Holomoe of
Dickinson, and the remarkable piano
playing of Mrs. T.. G. Burke of Baker
City, Oregon, sister-in-law to Cover
nor Burke.
A delicious banquet was expeditions

The severe storm prevented many
out of town guests from reaching the
city in time for the dance and also in
terferred with the transportation of
the towns people to the Capitol. But
In spite of these drawbacks the first

was notable success and SO passes

BEAUTIFUL SHIELD IS GIFT Of
A FIREMAN SAVED BY CHIEF RUNGE

Chief A. H. Runge of the Grand
Forks fire department may never have
told you of or shown you a beautiful
solid gold firemen's shield which he
wears on his vest, but it is there, and
there is story in connection with it.
The shield is the gift of Captain
O'Neil of the Minneapolis fire depart
ment, in recognition of the brave deed
of Mr.. Runge, who on Christmas
day twenty-three years ago he saved
the life of his comrade fire fighter.
On Christmas day, 1883, fire was
discovered in the Academy of Music
hall in Minneapolis. The building was
four-story structure, situated on the
corner of Hennepin and Washington
avenues. 1t was carelessly con-
structed building, and proved to be a
yeritable fire trap. The fire had
gained such Roadway when the fire
department arrived, that it was out of
the question to save the building, and
the efforts of the firemen were direct
ed toward saving adjoining buildings.
1t was a bitter cold day, and the tons
of water thrown on the building froze
into fantastic shapes, so that for
weeks afterwards the walls when
were left standing resembled more a
fairy palace than anything of the
earth.
Capt. O'Neil of hook and ladder
truck No. had entered the building
to better fight the fire. When last
seen, he was surrounded on all sides
by flames, and would have persisted
had it not been for the heroism OF
Chief Runge, who entered the build
ing and carried his comrade to safety,
after the fearless fireman was all but
overcome by smoke. For this brave
deed, Capt. O'Neil presented Mr.
Runge with the beautiful shield, and
that gentleman wears it today, one of
his most treasured medals.

door of nearby saloon, but was shot
in the side by Towers. The witness
was subjected to severe cross-exam-
ination by Albert H. Hall of Mime
apolis, one of the attorneys for the
defense.

 There was silence for moment, while the two men fought a battle with their eyes. Finally Wilson spoke:
