BIRTHS AND DEATHS
REPORTS ARE NOT
COMPLETE
Sister State, Though Not As
Largely Populated, Makes
a Better Showing.

While the state censuses of North
Dakota and South Dakota for 1905
showed that the population of the for
mer state was the largest by several
thousands, the population of North
Dakota being about $4,000, and South
Dakota about 435.OOO, the reports OF
vital statistics for the two states for
March shows wide disparity in favor
OF the southern state.
The births in South Dakota during
March numbered 1904, compared with
545 for North Dakota, and the deaths
in South Dakota during the same per-
iod numbered 81, compared with 162
in North Dakota. The population
gain in South Dakota was 757, accord
ing to the figures given. and the gain
in North Dakota was only 3S3.
Apparently, much better results are
secured in the reports of vital statis-
tics in South Dakota than in this
state. 1t is well known that the re-
ports in North Dakota are very incom-
plete, some counties frequently MAX
ing no returns and physicians neglect
ing to make the reports to the county
officials. For instance, in Pembina
county during March, according to the
official report of Secretary Grassick
of the state board of health, there
were no births and no death record
ed, and in Logan, Billings, Cavalier,
Mercer and Ramsey counties no
deaths were reported.

wonderful changes in some men,

The Standard enters vigorous
protest against Sunday baseball at
Maddox.
If the attorney general and the
states attorneys keep up the present
fight against the blind pigs, it will
be necessary to enlarge the peniten-
tiary.
Now that Ward county has poor
farm the next problem will be to get
someone to go out and live on it.
Inhabitants of poor farms are hard
to find in Ward county.
The Evening Press insists upon the
Times taking an alleged $50 which
that paper claims to have. The Times
feels that taking that money would
be like robbing kid of candy.
The Cooperstown Sentinel is the
new official estray paper of the state
having been named to succeed the
Washburn Leader, which has been
the official estray paper during the
past two years.
Friends of Editor FAIRIES of the
Courtenay Gazette will extend to him
sympathy in the loss of his estimable
wife. who died this week after short
sickness, leaving her husband and
several little ones to mourn her
death.
A. o. Deter, formerly of Stark

Farmers Grain company at Neville,
is one of the heirs to an estate of

died in Ohio. Mr.. Deeter left few
days ago for Ohio to look after his

Charles Wilson of the Fargo Forum

ADJUSTMENTS
That Good Show.

Laugh long and loud, then laugh
some more Is what you do when you
see Perez R. Benton's latest triumph,
"A Cowboys Girl" play written on
new lines and said to be one of the
most artistic and realistic of modern
theatrical productions. Full of song
and story of the new southwest. told
in the most captivating manner and
augmented with the latest ideas in
scenic and electrical effects. The
Cowboys Girl company will give a
popular priced matinee at the Metro
politan on Saturday afternoon at $3.50
o'clock. Children 10c, adults Csc.
A Good Program.
The patrons of the Savoy Family
theatre have been delightfully."- enter
tanned this week by what could only
be considered first class bill. The
three Leavys have made great chit"
and the management expresses itself
highly pleased by the appreciation
shown their efforts to put forth a
good, clean program.
Little Martin Leavy especially has
been most successful and has enter
tanned and amused packed houses ev-
cry evening. Too much praise cannot
be given this little girl who is gifted
with. phenomenal talent and who we
predict will be heard from later when
she has attained a few more years of
age. She has rarely sweet childish
voice and sings in cultivated style
not often found among girls of more
mature age, and her dancing showed
natural grace which few are endowed
with.
Probably the most amusing thing
she does is her impersonations of the
different types of the human race,
rendering in a finished manner and
so true to life that her efforts plain
ly show perception and study.

BOSTON, May 17.-Commander Robert f.
Peary has decided upon some changes in
his next attempt 20 reach the north POLE

THE main improvement over the last
plan" said the explorer. will be that l
shall continue farther to the westward
along the North Grant Land coast, and
then when l take to the ice I shall bear
always to windward. and thus offset the
continuous drift to the east.
The second great difference will be that
I shall so arrange matters that there can
be no recurrence of the unfortunate con-
tigency that cost us the prize last year.
There will be no separation of the parties

SAN FRANCISCO, May lin a state
ment to the Evening Post Mayor Schmitz
this afternoon said:
The statement that l have handed the
reins OF government to any person or COM
mittee is an unqualified falsehood. l called
the committee Of fifty together some time
ago in order that 1 might take advantage
Of the wisdom and advice of the best citi-
gems Of the city in a financial and indus
trial crisis. This committee of fifty Sc
lected subcommittees In order that the i'm
portant work might be systematzed and
carried out and one of the committees is
the so-called committee OF seven. l have
not resigned, nor yielded my prerogative
to anybody and any statement to the
contrary is a malicious falsehood. There
Is no reason why 1 should pass over the
reins Of government to other people.
"As for Ruefs charges, will say he
has never paid me any bribe money and
he knows it. II he says he paid bribe
money to me he simply lies. 1 only know
that he has made such charges from what
l am told and from the newspaper re-
ports.'
