DEVILS LAKE
CONTINUED from page H.

ed with cement crossings at every
corner.
There are many handsome houses
from an architectural point OF view.
In the matter of size and abundance
OF trees the advantage is with Bis
marck.
The business section of Devils Lake
is equal if not superior to that of
Bismarck. 1t is compact, well built
and there are no more elegant fur
nishings in any Of the stores than are
to be found in a dozen Of the Devils
Lake stores. There is absolutely no
shanty town in the business section
of this city. We found neat, well
kept, clean little city.
The street grading In the business
section is well done, the center being
we'll rounded up. The curbing is all
in and is regular and OF the same
material. The entire business Sec
ton has cement cutters to carry OF
the water from the streets. The
street work has evidently been done
in a methodical manner and has been
done right from the beginning. :.
In the mater of public buildings,
Devils Lake is very fortunate.
The new federal building is gem.
1t is more imposing and finer piece
of ARCHITECTURAL than the ones at Grand
Forks and Fargo. The cost is $780,
900. It is not snowy but simple, i'm
pressive because of its simplicity.
The new grade school building,
costing $4,000 complete, is perfect
in it's lighting, heating and ventila-
ton. The fan system is used to drive
the fresh air into the room and the
foul air out Devils Lake children
are breathing pure air, instead of the
bad air that the majority Of our school
children breathe in school. -. r.
The Carnegie library is rapidly be-
ing completed. 1t Is built on the
same general plans as all these are
built, and will cost $4,000. E..'.-..
The state school for the deaf and
dumb, the Catholic school and hospi-
tai are fine buildings and the easily
accessible to the city. "A new hotel
has been started, the foundation be
ing now completed. 1t has a $50 foot
frontage and will cost from SIS, 900 to
500, 1000. ~ -.
The new So, 900 opera house is now
nearly completed. &,@z1 j. IL sB..->s.- ...
A four-story block OF 100 feet front
age has just been completed.
The railroad depot Is one OF the
finest and best kept on the entire
line. -. o.. : se< - :
The town is evidently a pet OF the
Great Northern road i. ..g
A new high school building and a
new court house is needed. Both are
absolutely unfit for their purpose from
every point Of view. II g. Z. .<3s H.. ,@

he would have nothing to do with her
again and she turned from the Office,
Miss Duberstein went to the tenth

broke small window, crawled to the
ledge and dropped head foremost,

BUGnOUSE HOSPITAL
FOR grand FORKS
DOCTORS THINK iT WOULD BE
CHEAPER FOR COUNTY AND
BETTER FOR PATIENTS.
VOTE OF PEOPLE FOR USE OF
THE MONEY WOULD HAVE
TO BE TAKEN.

Grand Forks. y. D., Nov. 4.-The
establishment OF hospital by Grand
Forks county for the treatment OF in
cipient cases of insanity, was discuss
ed from various points at a public
meeting held at the court house, and
attended largely by members of the
medical profession and others inter
ested in the subject. James Twamley
was chosen as chairman of the meet
ing. DR.. F. J. Duggah was the first
sr.2aker and addressed the meeting
at some length in advocacy OF the
proposition. The fact that the var
ious counties of the state are requlr-
ed to maintain their insane patients
at the state asylum at a large ex-
pense at the present time. was ad-
vanced as one reason for the desira-
bility of such an institution for Grand
Forks county, which at the present
time maintains forty-four patients at
the state hospital 1t is also recog-
nized that many cases of incipient
insanity may be cured If the right
treatment can be had in time. DR..
Duggan explained his theories as TO
tho cause of certain forms of insan-
ity, and urged that there was heavy
responsibility imposed upon us in the
care of the unfortunates.
Brief remarks We're made by State
Superintendent Grassick of the board
of health, DR.. Mcdonald, DR.. Gislason,
DR.. Weatherstine. Rev. A. H. Feb
landt, County Commissioner Korsmo
and DR.. Gillette of the state univer-
sity. The latter gave the meeting
much valuable information as to what
steps have been taken in other states
along the same lines. He suggested
two different plans which have been
adopted, one the conversion Of the
portion of one of the regular state
hospitals into a detention hospital
for durable diseases, accessible to
all OF the hospitals, another the estab-
lishment of a hospital in connection
with the university, but accessible
to the other hospitals, and equipped
with laboratories for pathological in
vestigation.
After an informal discussion of the
subject from various points, County
Commissioner Korsmo made the
statement that the county commits
sioners could not b. expected to take
any action in the direction of such a
hospital unless backed up by strong
public sentiment and vote authoriz-
ing the use Of money for the purpose.
He suggested that hospital might
be built by the county something like
the detention hospital built by the
city of Grand Forks, or that possibly
a portion Of the county hospital at
Arvilla might be utilized. A commit.
tee consisting of Drs. Gillette. Duggan
and Grassick was appointed to con-
slider the matter of plans for hos.
pital and to investigate what is being
done in this direction in other states
and to report at another meeting to
be held later.

Steals BLACK To !. !:
WEAR FOR father

Cincinnati, Nov. 4.-Because she is
alleged to have taken a quantity OF
black silk goods with which to make
dress of mourning colors to wear at
the funeral of her father, who lies
dead in Covington, KY, Miss Mamie
Schmidt, rs years old, was arrested
in department store in this city by
detectives yesterday aud charge OF
petit larceny was lodged against her.
The young woman wept bitterly as
she was led away, saying it was her
first offense and that the mortif1ca-
ton caused by her arrest, together
with the death OF her parent, who left
his family unprovided for, was more
than she could bear.
r It is probable that the charge
against her will not be pressed.

ALL DEPENDS
ON farmers
VALUE OF AMERICAN TILLER'S
PRODUCT IN 1908 $3.50, o0o, 900
AS LARGE THIS YEAR-U. s.
SOME DAY WILL OVERTAX PRO
DUCING POWER.

Washington, Nov. 4.-Some day the
steady increase of population in the
United States is bound to overtax the
ability of the former to provide for
its sustenance, but that day is very
remote according to Secretary Wilson
of the agricultural department. Nor
will it be necessary in the immediate
future, to import grain ror bread not
withstanding the doIeful prediction
of some publicist. Everything de-
ponds upon the disposition of the
American farmer to make the most
of the resources of his land, and to
improve his methods of agriculture in
accordance with the needs OF the
people.
Wilson lis Optimistic.
The secretary is In Ill optimistic
mood just now and he points to the
figures fthe crop production show
ing that the value Of the American
farmers output for one single ear
aggregated the enormous total Of ST.
250,000, 900. That was for the calen-
dar year 1908, but the secreta y was
confident that having in mind the
higher prices Of the present, the total
for this ear would certainly be as
large or perhaps larger.
Panic Only Danger.
One last question was asked the
secretary.
"Will the American wheat go be-
low 81 again."
Probably not" he replied, "but
there is no telling what might follow
such disturbance in the industrial
and financial world as we had in 1907
and should we again meet such a
crisis 1t is possible that there would
again be So cent wheat"

While the five speed runs we're being

A summary of the days evidence
shows that the Judge failed to shake
Nine. Steinheil's original version Of
the crime. She admitted an intrigue,
but heatedly denied that she sent her
mother to solicit money from her
lovers and she insisted that her hus-
band had never profited by her iin-
moral life. Admitting that she had
done wrong, in a fearful voice, she
beseeched the jury to pardon her
faults. She defended herself by say
ing that since she did not live with
her husband as his wife, she longed
for sympathy and love. z:..5 .>.s 5aE5 =g5
When confronted with inconsisten-
cies in her stories she justified them
by saying that she had lost her head
when harassed by Journalists and de-
tectives and had thus been led to be-
lieve that those whom she had accus-
ed were perhaps guilty. The Judge
lie dthe woman again and again over
the story Of the crime itself and at
ter suggesting that she had probably
worked out fantastic plot, in which
she introduced red bearded men and
red haired woman, taken from
books or adapted from, some similar
crime OF which she had read in her
youth. ED
Nine. Steinheil Indignantly denied
these charges. #

The engine of the fast mail simply
demolished the caboose to splinters
and climbed up on top of the next car
which caught fire. Both the fireman
and the engineer of the fast train
jumped and escaped uninjured.
One stock car was destroyed by fire
which started just after the crash
and twenty-five horses were burned
to death.
The stock train is said to have dis
obeyed orders in occupying the main
line, which should have been cleared
for the fast mail.
All wires between here and Rugby
