one Man FROZEN
ANOTHER MAY Die
BODY sTlFFENED IN ICY DEATH
FOUND NEAR GRAND RAPIDS
POCKETS ARE FULL OF
WHISKEY.

Grand Rapids, Mimi, Dec. 2S,--
Frozen to death, with two bottles of
liquor in his pockets, George Biers was
found today lying by the tracks of
the Minnesota & International railway.
A little later a man who had been
a companion of Biers was found wan
dering in the woods about mile from
the dead mans body, also drunk and
so badly frozen that it was at first
thought his life could not be saved
A special train was sent out and
brought Biers' body TO this town and
also brought the other man, whose
name could not be learned, so serious
was his condition.
A coroner's inquest was held over
the body of Biers by Or. Thomas Rus
sell, who decided that exposure to the
cold was the principal cause of death.
The two men had apparently been
celebrating Christmas by imbibing
freely and when starting for home
they loaded with further supply, as
both had bottles partially full of booze
in their pockets. 1t is figured that Mr..
Biers was overcome with the drink
and laid down to sleep while his COM
panion kept moving, keeping his blood
sufficiently in circulation to save his
life. Funeral arrangements for Biers
have not been made.

Chicago, Dec. 2S.-William Kaross
a laborer, and Ralph link, a porter,
two cats and a parrot, were found
asphyxiated by gas last night i'm the
kitchen of the home of William H
Doyle, 1882 South State street. Kaross
and link boarded with Doyle.
The dead men were discovered by
Clifford Hoyt, a tenant in the floor
below. He and ]. w. Roberts, 81
East Forty fifth street, noticed water
dropping through the ceiling of ehe
kitchen. and when they went upstairs
to investigate a strong odor of gas
was escaping from the fiat. No re-
Spouse was received to their rapping
and they notified the police.
When the police arrived they broke
down the door of the fiat, and dis
covered the odies of the two men
lying on the floor in the kitchen. Gas
was escaping from a valve in the gas
stove, upon which a small pan OF
water was standing.
Empty liquor bottles were found
lying about and the police believe that
while under the infiuenc, of the liquor
the men placed the water ON the stove
to heat. neglected 1t, and when the
water reached the boiling + point it
overfiowed, extinguishing the fire.
Doyle on his return home, declared
that before he started out In the
morning for almond. Ind, with his
family to spend the day, he left the
house i'm charge of Kaross. He he
lieved the asphyxiation to be acct
dental, as he knew of no reason why

ANOTHER PROOF OF
FARGO'S PROGRESS
5RADsTREET FIND THEIR vol.
UME OF BUSINESS IN THIS
TERRITORY INCREASED TO
SUCH CAPACITY THAT THEY
HAVE ESTABLISHED OFFICE.

Fargo, today, made one stem higher
In her fame for commercial supremacy
and the rise will be appreciated by
financial and commercial interests
generally In the city as well as over
the state.
There was opened in a suite of
rooms in the Magill block state Office
of the Bradstreet Mercantile Co. with
A. T. Russell installed as superintend-
emit. Mr.. Russell will nave at his
disposal stenographers and filing
girls to- receive and dispatch the re-
ports affecting this territory.
Approaching the needs of the Job
bers, in this territory, for quick re-
ports and anticipating the increase
Of business in the future the Brad
street Co. decided to establish a state
office in Fargo. From this office will
be supplied all reports in North Da-
kota and the territory supplied by
Fargo jobbers and manufacturers. Mr..
Russell for himself and in behalf Of
the company expresses his thanks and
appreciation to the financial and Job
bling interests of the city for the lib
eral support in the past and the as
surance Of continuance of past fav-
ors in the future. The opening of
such an office in Fargo is of para
mount Importance which will be
quickly realized, It will bring the
metropolis of the state into much
closer touch with the commercial
world from the Atlantic to the Pa
cific and the nearly 200 offices of tile
company which will be seeking re-
ports from the Fargo office on bust
ness touching this territory-it is sure
to mean more to Fargo than will first
be observed. Today Mr.. Russell was
busy putting in place such of the fur
niture for the office as had arrived.
The filing cabinet for the rapid hand
ling OF the thousands of reports which
will soon be accumulated, similar to
those used i'm the general offices of
the company is on it's way to Fargo
and is expected to arrive soon. The
rooms win be found at No Magill
block. 1t is gratifying to know that
Mr.. Russell has attained his ambition,
that of securing a volume OF business
to come within the scope of the Brad
street rules to warrant the establish
ment of state office here. It speaks
we'll for the enterprise of the state
as well as Fargo as a jobbing enter.

SAYS PAPERS HURTS HIS CITY
Savannah Mayor Complains Of Exas-
aerations in Muir Ter Story.


Savannah, Ca, Dec. 2S.-Mayor
George w. Tiedeman of Savannah
takes exception to the accounts of the
recent triple murder in this city as sent
out by Savannah correspondents of
out of town iapers. He claims that the
stories of the excitement. the night of
the murder, while the hunt for the
slayer was in progress were greatly
exaggerated. He declared that there
were only four arrested after the crime.
that three of these were white men,
that no heavily armed men assisted
the police, that no handbills were
printed describing the murderer, that
no negroes asked to be locked up for
protection, that no innocent men were
attacked; that no doors were broken
or fences leveled; that he as mayor
never suppressed or attempted to sup
press an edition of a paper.
The mayor adds: These statements
do grave injustice to the citizens of
Savannah, who displayed regard for
law under the extraordinary circum-
stances that reflected credit upon the
community"

FARGO LODGES PLAN TO
ERECT LARGE AUDITORIUM
Mass Meeting Held Last Night When Initial Move for Joint
Convention Hall and Lodge Room Building Was
Madeline Thing for City

building fund for the purpose Of at
some time erecting a structure which
would be entirely its own, but 1t
able TO realize this plan. These seem
disposed to join the movement for a
joint building.
In Movement in Earnest.
The lodges, which were represent
ed at the meeting held last night arc
very enthusiastic over the proposition
and have entered the movement in
earnest. All need good halls which
would at beast be partially their own.
Az 1t is at present, every hall in the
city is occupied almost every night
in the week with some lodge meeting
and 1T is all but impossible to hold
special meetings.
The lodges consider that building
an auditorium in connection with the
lodge halls would fill great need in
this city. At the present there is no
room in the city which is capable Of
accommodating many of the large
gatherings which come to Fargo. The
renting OF sucn an auditorium would
be a profitable Investment to the
lodges and would greatly assist them
in paying for the building.
viii Meet Again on Jan. 10.
Another meeting of the committees
from the organizations. together with
those from any OF the other lodges
which may want to join the move
ment, will be held on the evening of
Jan. 10. In the meantime 1t is prob
able that the committees provided for
at the meeting last night win be ap-
pointed and they will likely have
something to report then.
Such building as proposed would
be q credit to the lodges in the move
ment and to the city as well. They
would be Jointly able to do mucn more
now than any single one of them could
accomplish in years The lodge mem
bers arc greatly interested i'm tho
movement and are wondering where
such a structure could be erected
Some have suggested the lots on
Fifth street between First and Second
avenues and back of the Masonic
temple. This would be an ideal To-
cation for such a building. putting It
i'm a central place where II would add
materially to the appearance of the
city.

IN N. D. SCHOOLS.
COMMITTEE OF SEVEN, WHO IN
YEsTlcATED CONDITIONS IN
SCHOOLS OF STATE WITH REF
ERENcE TO MAKING THEM
MORE UP-To- DATE, REPORT.

How can the schools of North Da-
kota be modernized. adjusted so that
they will conform more to the stan
dard Of educational work of the times t?

fronted the North Dakota Educational
association at its last annual meeting.
To get solution Of this problem
the association appointed a committee
--uhe famous committee of seven--to
make thorough investigation and to
make a report to the next annual
meeting of the association.
This committee yesterday made
public its report and it proves to be
most thorough and complete in every
detail. 1t will he submitted to the an
nual convention of the N. d. e. A. at
Minot Dec. %, 20 and 30.
The committee of seven was COM
posed of Prof. G. c. Schmidt. state

The report makes closely printed
book of sixty-two pages and 1T will
undoubtedly have considerable to do
with shaping future educational work
in this state. ~
IL is comprehensive and has worked
out in accurate detail the recommen-
dations of the committee. Special
emphasis is laid upon vocational,
moral and civic instruction. Possibly
the most valuable work Of, the COM
mittee is i'm its careful correlation of
material and methods which should re-
suit I'm an enFiched course of instruc-
ton and at the same time a much
more economic system in the way in
which the child's time in school is en-
ployed. No doubt this report will be
of great assistance to the state de-
partment of education in formulating
an ideal course of study.
