Thursday night Nv. F. Griswold.

Bismarck to interview Gov. Burke oh
the organization of, and particularly the
appointment Of officers for, HettinGeg
county. rhhleessse.aafmen took with them
petition carTyingatfe names of 400 sign
en-, including many Of the old residents
of the county. In the first place tkGSse
people did not. want Hettinger divAsaal
believing that it would make one gESa9
county as per the original boundaries;
but If it was: to be divided, they. believed
it should have been on the guide line
east and west, eliminating the notchIand
30 giving each county straight sboun.
DIARIES, there appearing to be no reason
for the present division line other than
to make the location of Mott more CEN
trail in the northern county. In the third
place, the committee is asking Cox
Burke to reconsider the appointment.o9 II
officers for Hettinger, especially insfhff
matter of commissioners. Those ap-
pointed are comparatively new settlers,
known to very few people outside ofsthe
Mott locality, where two at least have
homesteads. The committee is asking
the governor to recognize the westernsE0r
central portion Of the county with one
commissioner, some one who has been
in the county for a considerable length
Q ftime. There are plentysof such men,
The petitioners, as represented BY
Messrs. Griswold, Hersteiff and Precise,
supposed that thirty days was required
for the consideration of petitions before
official action could be taken by the
chief executive. In this they were dis.
appointed.
As regards matters in Adams, the com
nlittee seemed to think that the governor
had made a good selection of officers, all
sections being represented in an equi
table tanner. &

CLUB TO STUDY WORLDS.

III. w. Hedge Expects to Form . UNI
versal Society For Research.
Homer w. Hedge, who was one of
the prime movers in the organization
Of the Aero Club of America, of which
he Is now first vice president, as well
as one Of the organizers Of the Auto
mobile Club of America, intends to
the Universal Astronomical society,
says the New York Times. Mr.. Hedge
asserts that he has been promised a
large membership and that the plan
has every prospect Of succeeding.
The new society is to have as its OBJ
ject the furthering throughout the en-
tire world Of research on astronomical,
astrological and seismic subjects, The
headquarters will be In New York city,
but the society will have branches in
all the countries of Europe and In ia
pan.
Mr.. Hedge says that he conceived
the idea while on his last ballooning
trip. He was impressed with the fact
that, despite automobiles and balloons.
the earths inhabitants were but very
small part of the scheme of things and
that very little comparatively was
known Of the larger things in the uni
verse.
It occurred to him then that America,
with its many millionaires and ag-
gressiveness, might take a leading part
In ascertaining more about the relation
Of the earth to other planets and Of the
possibilities the future might hold II a
society for the interchange of ideas and
data between the scientists of different
countries We're formed. With this plan
In mind he approached several people,
and he now declares that such socie-
II will be formed soon

Entire Northwest in the Grip
Of Cold Wave, Accompanied
With Wind and Snow
APPREHENSION FOR SETTLERS
Residents Of sparsely Settled Territory
Poorly Equipped to Fight Cold and
RIookade-Another Tie-Up of Rail-
way Lines Expeoted-Fifty Mile
Gale From Northwest.

Minneapolis, Jan. 21.-Sweeping
from the depths of the north, a blizzard
has the northwest In its grasp. From
central Iowa, to the most northerly
reaches of the telegraph service;
from Lake Michigan on the east, to
central Montana in the west, the snow
and cold are gripping praifies and
hamlet, forest and town. From some
points the storm was reported the
worst ever known, and there was APP
prehension that great suffering would
follow.
The northwest never was so poorly
prepared to withstand a cold wave.
With scarcity OF fuel not more than
sufficient for immediate needs; with
train service on all the railways nearly
paralyzed and with food supplies run
ming low, the storm brings serious
complications.
Little snow accompanied the Storm
but the wind was SO strong as to gath
er the snow already on the ground and
pile it into the tunnels which the ro-
taries have opened.
The twin cities suffered little during
the night, but the indications for severe
weather were promising. Toward even
ing the temperature began TO sink rap
idly and the wind started to rise.
Toward o'clock the wind lhad reach
ed velocity of thirty miles an hour
At that hour the wind was travelling
E11rnn g tho rate Nf forty.
two miles an hour and over Bismarck
N. D., at fifty-two-mile clip, heading
straight for the twin cities.
The "low' area was over the north
ern peninsula of Michigan and the
northern part of the lake, where Sc
we're storms prevailed during the night.
The entire northwest and all western
Canada are locked in a cold wave. All
over western Canada temperatures
ranged from 10 at Winnipeg to "a
at Battleford. Turnout North Dakota
and eastern Montana the temperature
fell rapidly during the night. Devils
Lake and Williston showed IL at .
p. m. with new consignments OF cold
arriving with every blast.
Heavy storms east of Chicago inter-
fered with the working Of the tele-
graph wires last night. The local bliz-
zard did not injure the service be-
tween Minneapolis and Chicago, and
the operators had no trouble in sending
or receiving messages. Westward no
trouble is reported except down thru
Iowa and Kansas to Texas, where rain
storms seem to be the cause Of the
trouble.
Minneapolis street car service was
we'll maintained, and those who really
wanted to get home had little difficulty
in getting cars. The usual service was
maintained during the storm, and 1t
was not found necessary to use the
large snowplows. A few large drifts
gave some trouble, but the cars were
delayed but few minutes at most.
No relief from the cold is promised
for Minnesota and the Dakotas. There
will probably be a clearing with still
lower fall in the temperature. There
were high northwest winds Sunday
with a little warming up today. A
light fall of snow Is predicted in the
xr,octarp M ri of tho Dakotas

quite impossible for any one ON the
aground outside to see the person sitting
at it. Yet Drysdale stated distinctly
that he saw Tremaine sitting at the
table writing when he came back from
that mysterious walk. What would
you argue from thaty
AThat Tremaine had moved the table
nearer to tile window"
"And why should he do that2'
'sTo get a better light, perhaps" l
ventured.
"He might have done it in the day
time, to get better light but at
night he would get much worse one
over there by the window than here.
The lights, you'll observe, hang from
the center Of the ceiling"
saThen he did IT. said, "in order
that he might be seen from outside"
''That's it, Not only that he might
be seen, but that Drysdale might see
him. I wonder if this is the kind of
paper he wrote on?"
I'VE keep a supply Of 1t in all TIL
guest rooms, SIR" volunteered Thomas.
Godfrey took it up and looked at 1t.
It was plain white linen Of good
quality, with the word "Edgemere"
embossed iii blue at the top. There
were also on the table pens, an ink
stand and two or three blotters. He
turned the blotters over, but only one
Of them showed any sign Of having
been used, and the marks on 1t were
very faint, yet they seemed to interest
Godfrey. He bent over them with puz-
zled face. Then he got out a little
magnifying glass and studied them
again.
Lester" he said, at last, II wish
you'd take look at this" and he
pushed the blotter and glass toward
me. "what do you make of it?"
/ gazed through the glass at the
marks, but for moment could make
nothing Of them. Then they resolved
themselves into a string Of letters
marching backward, fairly distinct at
one end, but fading away to nothing
ness at the other.
Somebody seems to have been scrib-
bling lot OF disconnected letters on a
piece Of paper" said, at last. II can't
make out any words. The letters seem
to be mostly BIS and G's-yes, and
here's an l."
"Thomas," said Godfrey, will you go
down and ask Mr.. Delroy IL he has
sample Of Mr.. Trema;ne's handwriting,
and, IL so, If he will let us see it for a
moment?"
Thomas went out instantly and I
looked at Godfrey in surprise.
