firecrackers or fireworks. One fire
there was during the day, but that
was from an entirely different cause
One accident also occurred, but an
auto was the feature of the affair and
there was no chance to say that the
machine was scared by a firecracker
The firecracker ordinance was fair
ly we'll observed, save for an hour
or two in the evening. The ordinance
prohibits the discharge of any kind
of fireworks, big or little, within the
fire limits, which are Main street
north to Thayer and First street east
to Sixth The police tried to stop it
for while, but there would always
be an outbreak when they were some
where else and they were obliged to
give it up for a bad job.
BY another year the ordinance will
apply to the sale of fireworks, as the
dealers will not be able then to plead
ignorance of the law.

BISMARCK TOOZES
Win TWO VICTORIES
FAST TEAM OF LOCAL STARS
DEFEAT M'KENZlE AND
co. A.
Durham Pitched Great Ball and was
Given Gilt Edge Support-Several
Home Runs Credited to Toozes.

The Bismarck TOoZes have added
two more scalps to their string. Sun
day they went to Mckenzie, where
they defeated the crack team OF that
town, and on the Fourth of July they
touch off the fireworks with the fast
Co. A team.
The game at Mckenzie was an up
hill fight from start to finish. The
Mckenzie players had two or three
men from Menoken to assist them. In
the first inning they piled up five
runs. In the second they added three
more and in the third they crossed
the plate twice, making the total num-
Der of runs ten. The Toozes in the
meantime had shot it's wad, and not
another run was scored off the visi-
tors after the third inning.
The Bismarck boys then CON-
menced their uphill struggle. One
run one inning, two runs another, and
so it went until the ninth was finished
when the scorer announced that the
Toozes had won the game by a total
score of IL to 10.
Durham got three-bagger and two
two-baggers in this game.
Company A Team Defeated
Monday afternoon, in order to give
some of the good citizens some d.
version for the rational holiday, the
Toozes met the crack Co. A team.
The game was hot affair, but what
else could be expected, since the Their
registered "a in the shade.
Co. A was not in it. They were
swamped, and when the smoke had
cleared away the score stood IL to
4. Durham had sixteen strikeouts to
his credit and D. SWEET of the Toozes
secured two home runs.
The Toozes are putting up a first
class game of ball these days and
are we'll worth going to see. They
are open for all corners and desire
games with teams from the neighbor-
ing cities.

A QUIET FOUR7
Celebrated HERE
LITTLE DOING IN BISMARCK ON
ANNIVERSARY OF IN
DEPENDENCE
Several Picnics in the Surrounding
Groves, and Few Dances in Town
-Firecracker Ordinance Observed.

With the thermometer registering
"a degrees at the United States wea-
Their bureau, and the good citizens
sweltering in the torrid atmosphere,
the anniversary of our national indie
pendence passed by very quietly, and
with no casualties to mar it's page.
There was very little doing in Bis
marck throughout the day. A bow
cry dance was given at the armOry
in the evening; there were few pic
mics in the surrounding groves, which
were largely attended by Bismarck
ers; baseball game furnished amuse-
ment for few, and by far the largest
crowd watched the fight bulletins at
the Tribune.
The Moose lodge gave a picnic at
a grove east of the city. 1t was we'll
attended by large number of Moose
and their friends, who wished to es-
cape the burning heat of the city. A
picnic dinner was enjoyed, games
were INDUCED in and general good
time was had.
The Homesteaders also gave pic
mic. They went to Schwabe's grove.
Hammocks were swung, different
sports were INDUCED in, picnic
lunch was partaken of and everybody
enjoyed themselves.
In town, large number of people
assembled at the home of Joe Berger
in the east of the city. There was
a bowery dance there in the after
noon and evening. Ice cream was
served, and refreshments. There
wasn't a single dull moment during
the entire day.
There was a close baseball game
at the east end diamond in the after
noon that was fairly we'll attended.
The two teams were both from this
city, and the rivalry was keen.
A bowery dance at the armory in
the evening was the browning fea-
ture of the day. The dance was a
huge success. A large number of
couples were on the floor, which was
in excellent condition.
There were no casualties due to

THOMAS A. Weeks
DIES SUDDENLY
THE DECEASED WAS VERY WELL
KNOWN IN BISMARCK AND
VICINITY.
Death Was Due to Heart Failure and
Was Caused BY Mr.. Weeks Taking
Cold Plunge In Apple Creek.

The community was deeply shock
ed last night to learn OF the sudden
death of one of its we'll known resi-.
dents, Thomas Allen Weeks, which
occurred at Apple Creek Monday
Evening.
Mr.. Weeks had been in attendance
at the Moose picnic at SchWabe's
Grove, east Of the city. He had been
pitching horse shoes during the after.
noon and was very much heated up.
Some Of the boys suggested that be-
fore returning to town they all take
a dip in the creek. Four or five Of
them went in the water and Mr..
Weeks followed
they were. is about five feet wide.
Weeks plunged in and started to
swim across. He was almost over
II the other side when spectators on
the banks of the stream noticed that
something was wrong with him. His
head was not under water but his
mouth and chin were submerged and
water was running into his mouth. An
alarm was given to the other boys
IN the water and they fastened to the
rescue. They hurried him out on
the opposite side and tried to bring
him to.
1t was too late for any human aid,
however, as h ewas already dead.
Death was due to hear failure. It
is thought that the deceased burst an
artery or a blood vessel. He was
bleeding at the nose and mouth
when his friends were working over
him.
The friends of Mr.. Weeks could
not believe that he was dead ana
used all the methods they knew to
resuscitate him, but their efforts
were futile, as death was not in any
way due to drowning.
The body was brought back to the
city and taken to Fields undertaking
parlors, where it will be prepared for
burial.
Thomas Allen Weeks was about
30 years of age. He came out here
from Boston, Mass. He filed on a
claim in North Dakota, just across
he line from MOrristown, S. D. He
had also purchased an isolated tract
of eighty acres adjoining his home
stead.
He used to have charge Of Hinck.
lcy's Broadway liver barn, and was
night and day clerk at different times
at the Northwest and 500 hotels.
He is a member of the Moose lodge,
the Knights of Pythias and the Elks.
The Moose lodge have charge of the
body until his relatives are heard
from.
At late hour Monday night the
only relative whose address was learn.
ed was a niece residing mi 500 Nipe
Park, N. H. She was telegraphed the
sad news of her uncle's death and
was requested to inform his nearer
relatives. The body will be held here
until they are heard from.
Mr.. Weeks was we'll known in the
city. He was capable, Industrious,
and a diligent worker He had won
a large host Of friends. all of whom
mourn his untimely end.

kUP|TZ HOUSE
BADLY SC0RCHED
FIRE STARTED FROM A DEFEC-
TIVE FLUE AND SPREAD RAP
IDLY.
Firemen Responded Promptly and
Prevented the Entire Destruction of
the Building.

Monday afternoon at l o'clock the
house of Chas. Kupitz on south Ninth
street, was partially damaged by fire.
Mrs. Kupitz is away for the summer
and the building is rented to two fam
lilies for the summer. c. c. Jorgens
burg has rented the front part and
Mr.. and Mrs. Fadden and their fam
lily occupy the >rear of the building.
The blaze started in the half of the
house which the Jorgensburg family
reside.
The families were both of them
starting fires on which to prepare
their Fourth of July dinners. Mr..
Jorgensburg was the first to notice
smoke in the building, and quickly
notified the other occupants. An
alarm was turned in, but there was
some delay in getting the electric
plant and it was nearly five minutes
before the whistle was blown. Blu.
when the alarm was sounded the fire.
men responded quickly. Bill Pencil
and "Ole" were the first on the job
as usual and hurried the hose cart to
the scene of the blaze.
The roof and upstairs around the
chimney was in flames and the water
was directed thither and in little
while the flames was extinguished.
The blaze was caused by a defective
flue. The damage to the building
amounted to nearly $1,000, while the
loss of furniture totalled $500. The
house was fully covered by insurance
as was the furniture of Mr.. Kupitz
which was stored in the building.
The furniture of Jorgensburg was
damaged more by water than by fire
and was not protected by any insur-
ance.
The Fadden family did not suffer
any appreciable loss as their part of
the house was not hurt save by water
in the dining room, and their furnl-
ture was removed at the first alarm of
fire and placed in safety.

NO SUCCESSOR
IS APPOINTED
PRESIDENT TAFT WILL TAKE
HIS TIME TO NAME SUPREME
COURT JUDGES.
Is Looking for Two Men Now-Has
Some In Mind But Is Open to Argu.
nent Yet - Expected He Will Have
Appointed Six Men to the Supreme
Bench During His Term.

Beverly, Mass, July Awhile the
president declines definitely to com.
nit himself in any way, it is regarded
here tonight as practically certain that
Governor Hughes of New York. will
be the next chief justice of the SUI
preme court.
No appointment of successor OF
chief Justice Fuller will be made un-
til congress meets next December. BY
that time it is believed the president
will have to appoint also successor
to Justice Moody in whose beraly the
retirement bill was passed at the ses-
sion of congress just closed.
Taft to Take His Time.
In the selection of an associate JUS.
tice to succeed Justice Fuller, Presi-
dent Taft will take plenty of time for
deliberation. 1t is believed that he
will be informed as to Justice Moody's
intention as to retirement within the
next month or two, so the chief ex-
ecutive is practically casting for two
men.
Four Vacancies in Four Years.
The probable retirement of Justice
.,ioody will make the fourth vacancy
in less than two years. 1t is not un.
likely that before his term of four
years has expired President Taft will
have been called upon to appoint six
out of the nine justices forming the
supreme tribunal.
President Taft told some of his
friends recently that he was anxious
above almost anything else that his
administration might be known for the
character of his appointments to the
federal bench.
1t can be positively stated that tho
president Is entirely open minded as
to the supreme court vacancies. One
of the most likely candidates spoken
of here tonight is Justice Swayzee Of
New Jersey supreme court. He has
been strongly recommended to the
president and is said to have had an
excellent chance to appointment to
succeed the late Justice Peckham,
should Governor Hughes have declin-

A RuttonhoIe Helm.

Most home'dressmakers find working
ing OF many buttonholes tedious part
in the making of a garment. Simplify
the work by making the buttonholes on
an extra strip of cloth. This is much
easier than holding heavy white gar
ment while working on them, and you
get many worked at odd times; the
work is helped still further by making
two rows Of machine stitching the de-
sired length Of the buttonhole close to-
gether, but between the stitching which
forms firm edge over which to work,
When garment is worn out and the
Duttonholes are still good, the strip
containing them is removed and used
on a new one, simply stitching it under
a fold of the material.
