SiOnerS of ESCambia county:
Gentlemen: You are no doubt
aware of the movement which has
been on foot for some months past,
with the object OF establishing in
this county company of state troops.
As the captain-elect of this company,
and at their request, l request that you
grant TO this COMPANY when organized
the use Of the second floor of the an
mex to the county courthouse, for ar
mOTy purposes I feel certain that ii
Is unnecessary for me to call to your
attention the importance and value to
this county of having such an Organi-
cation here Fer many years Pensa-
cola was well represented in the
state troops, but for a number of years
past there have been no companies
here. Formerly the county armory
was used by the militia companies in
Pensacola, and since they have been
diSbanded, the armOry has been used
only for occasional assemblies. I'm
der the present conditions, it is not
serving the purpose for which it was
built, and IS of practically no use to
the county If its use were granted
to this company. it would serve its
teTially in procuring a military organ
ization here.
1t is proposed to muster the com
pany into service during next week
and it is necessary that an aTmOry be
arranged for before this can be done
therefore respectfully request that
your honorable body take action on
this petition at your meeting tonight.

Better Help Wanted

The following from the Valley City
Times Record Will apply to any colln-
ty in the state: North Dakota is
teeming with opportunities for the
laborer who has been the victim of
the late financial stringency. There
is many a farmer in Barnes county
who is looking for trust worthy and
faithful man to hire for the season or
the year. If the out-of-wOrk in the
east would come west at this time in
stead of just before harvest, he would
find steady employment at good wages
for the season or perhaps for the en-
suing year. The state can use thous-
andS of steady, sober men. During
the past the farmers of North Dakota
have been at the mercy Of the tran
sient laborer, the lumberjack and the
Doe. We want better class of labor
and must have it. The east has what
we want and thousands of the best.
men are out Of work. The only prob
lem is to get the man and the oppor-
ln>ity together. 1t might be we'll for
the commercial clubs or the farmers
organizations to advertise in he east
for the men of this type and take
steps to get them west. In this way
bet ter men could be obtained at Il
lower wage and the state would not
be terroriZed by all Of the tougNs Of
until the freeZeup.

Child Bleeds TO Death in a
Peculiar Way, No Blood
Leaving the Body

The New York physicians were
puzzled the other day when a very pc
culiar case was brought to their at
tenton. the case being child bleed
ing to death without blood leaving
the body. The child became i'll last
Saturday and peculiar black spots be-
gan to develop on his skin. The par
ents thought that he was turning to
IL negro and were puzzled to know
what to do. They took linn TO tlr
Harlem hospital, where the physicians
consulted all the aut uthOrities. but for
hours they could not determine what
was the matter with the child.
Several specialists were called and
after Il consultation the diagnosis was
made. The black spots are caused by
the leak Of Il VEN which permits the
escaping blood to lodge il, various
parts of the body. In forcing its way
to the skin, it gave the appearance OF
dark bIotch. 1t is believed that the
emptyng of the vessels ut last caused
the death Of the baby. as the heart
had no more work to do.
Many physicians declared that such
d case had not been known for de-
cadcs. An effort is being made TO i'll
duce the parents to permit IN autopsy
on he body OF the child. as it Is be-
lieved that the examination will
prove of great value to science.
