The natives of the Sandwich islands
estimate women by their weight. The
Chinese require them to have de-

SET TORCH TO CITY HALL
EAST GRAND FORKS SUFFERS
FROM NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
$500

Grand Forks, N. D., March 24.-Firs
OF an incendiary origin destroyed the
building containing the East Grand
Forks city hall. the fire hall and the
city electric light plant early yester-
day morning. The total loss is about
100000. with insurance of S12,40o.
There was q scarcity of water in the
vicinity of the city hall. and the fire
Vas beyond control when the Grand
Forks department was summoned.
Qhe police of East Grand Forks and
Grand Forks have taken up the search
for the firebus. A person known by
the nickname of "Frenchy" is suspect
ed and is under surveillance. He was
ordered several months ago to leave
Grand Forks by Ehief Lowe, after be
ing suspected of setting fire to a store
and other smaller buildings. A week
ago he returned and has been making
his home in East Grand Forks.
The fire started in the hay loft OF the
fire department headquarters. AS a
result of the fire East Grand Forks
was in darkness last night.

relative-whom he had despised and
denied almost to the day of his death.
In fact, not a half dozen persons in the
city were aware of the fact that there
existed any tie of relationship between
John Trevlyn. the miser, and Archer
Trevlyn, the head clerk of Belgrade &
Company.
Arch's good fortune did not change
him a particle. He gave less time to
business, it is true, but he spent it in
hard study. His early education had
been defective, and he was doing his
best to remedy the lack.
Early in the autumn following the
death of his grandfather, he went to
Europe, and after the lapse of a year,
returned again to New York. The sec
ond day after his arrival, he went out
to Harrison Park. Margie had passed
the summer there, with an old friend
of her mother for company, he was
told, and would not come back to the
city before December.

she took pleasure in it now, for Archer
lreVlyn was welcome everywhere. He
was a favored guest in the most aristo-
cratlc homes, and people peculiarly ex-
elusive We're happy to receive him into
their most select gatherings.
His engagement with Margie was
made public, and the young people were
overwhelmed with the usual compli-
ments of politely expressed hopes and
fashionable congratulations.
The gentlemen said Miss Harrison
had always been beautiful, but this sea-
son she was more than that. Happiness
is a rare beautifier. 1t painted Margie 8
cheeks and lips with purest rose color.
and gave a light to her eyes and a soft
ness to her sweet voice.
OF course she did not mingle In So
ciety, even though her engagement was
we'll known, without being surrounded
by admirers. They fairly tool her
away from Arch sometimes; but he
tried to be patient. Before the apple
trees in the green country valleys were
rosy with blossoms. she was to be all
his own. He could afford to be gen.
rous.
Among the train of her admirers was
a young Cuban gentleman, Louis Cas-
tram, a man of fascinating presence
and great personal beauty. He had
been unfortunate in his first love. She
had died a few days before they were
to have been married-died by the hand
of violence. and Castrani had shot the
rival who murdered her. Public opin-
ION "a favored the avenger, and he
had not suffered for the act, but ever
since he had been a prey to melancholy.
He told Margie his history, and it
aroused her pity; but when he asked
her love, she refused him gently, tell
ing him that her heart was a%nother's.
He had suffered deeply from the dis
appointment, out he did not give up
her society, as most men would have
done. He still lowered around her,
content if she gave him a smile or q
kind word. seeming to find his best hap
piness in anticipating her every wish
before it was uttered.

her wonted gayety of spirits, and was
for the most part subdued, almost sad.
Her eyes seldom lighted with a smile,
and her sweet voice was rarely heard.
She came, from a day spent out, one
evening, into Margie's dressing room.
Miss Harrison was preparing for the
opera. There was a new prima donna,
and Archer was anxious for her to hear
the wonder. Margie had never looked
lovelier. Her pink silk dress, with the
corsage falling away from the shoul-
ders, and the sleeves leaving the round
arms bare, was peculiarly becoming,
and the pearl necklace and bracelets
Archer's gift-were no whittier or puroy
than the throat and wrists they Gu
circled.

The board of county commission
ers of Day county has been asked
to issue a reward for information re-
garding the whereabouts of Albert
Hanson, for years a resident of Pier
pont, who disappeared last fall I'M
der mysterious circumstances.
At the time of the disappearance
on Oct. 5 last Hanson had about $500
in cash on his person. He said he
was going to Webster, the county
seat, to pay for a team he had pur-
chased. and to purchase another team
to take with him on q contemplated
journey to his homestead in the re-
gion between the Missouri river and
the Black Hills.
That evening Hanson was seen by
several citizens of Webster who knew
him. That was the last seen of him,
His team afterward was discovered in
the barn of DR.. Judge, where he had
placed the animals.
About the time of Hanson's disap-
pearance the bodies of two transients
were found in a straw stack near Bris-
toll. with numerous bullet holes in
them. and it is feared Hanson may
also have been murdered, but the
failure to find his body has led his
relatives to hope that he still is alive.

A few years ago, says the Boston

health. The physician told her that
plenty Of air and outdoor work would
restore her to her former vigor, so she
started to cultivate a garden.
One day when she was pulling weeds
out of the cabbage patch she tripped
and stumbled on her skirt, tearing a
hole in it. While going into the house
to AXE off he torn dress she noticed
a pair of her fathers overalls hanging

her that they were just the things for
a woman to wear while working in tho

company would expend $500, 900 in
this city this year in improvements,
other than those of tlNir new track

A new depot is to be built at a cost
of S12b, 900, which one of the repre-
sentatives said would be the finest
structure of its kind in the state.
The matter of the location of this
building Is one which is still kept
from the public, but while there are
several sites, one Of which is certain
to be used, the general sentiment APP
pears to be that it will be not far
from the present building used for
that purpose, but on the new tracks
farther to the north. The rest of the
amount is to be expended for shops,
a roundhouse and a coal house, which
will be located On the grounds pur-

Besides It's railroad work, fully
5000, 600 will be put into the work at

ings to be erected this year, all of
which indicates a prosperous season

again and again, almost failing to real-

1t was late that night before Archer
Irevlyn left his betrothed bride, and
took his way to the village hotel. But
he was too happy, too full of sweet con-
tent, to heed the lapse of time. At last
the longing of his life was satisfied. He
had heard her say that she loved him.
And Margie sat and listened to the
sound of his retreating footsteps, and
then went up to her chamber to pass
the night, wakeful. too content to be
willing to lose the time in sleep, and so
the dawn of morning found her with
