has alweys done his duty, and being
a non-commissioned officer he was Sc
lected especially to look after this i'm
:portant point.
A man named Louis Reichenstein
; employed in the county clerks office
made an effort to cross the forbidden
zone. Sergeant Manly stopped him
and told him he could not cross as
there were positive orders to prevent
all persons from crossing. Reichen.
! stein proclaimed he was a free born
/ American citizen and that he was go
ing to cross the line. The sergeant
requested him to stand back. Later
he enforced his request with the butt
of his rifle but that did not seem to
! convince the citizen that he could or
should not attempt to defy the author.
lily vested in the soldiers on duty at
that ime, and he and his friends made
: further attempts to cross. At the
same time Reichenstein abused and
cursed the soldier in vile and con.
temptible language, threatening to
come in the enclosure and take the
gun away from him. The last attempt
! was mdee in rush to cross the line
and the manner of the man and his
companions was threatening. The
soldier had no other recourse but
to present his bayonet at the charge
and the death of Reichenstein resulted.
Sergeant Manly was turned over to
the civilian authorities and later the
grind jury returned the Indictment of
murder in the first degree. Believing
it impossible to obtain fair trial in
Dallas county, a change of venue was
asked for but denied. The trial was
short, the jury returning the verdict
of murder in the first degree and the
court sentenced the soldier to life
imprisonment. An appeal has been
taken but meanwhile the soldier has
to remain in Jail, being denied any bail
whatever.
So far the expenses of the trial have
been borne by the officers of the Dal-
las guard, and the burden has been
very heavy. Sergeant Manly has a
young wife, and baby four months
old at the time the trouble occurred,
and his family has had to be cared for
during his incarceration in Jail for
he is man of no means and had been
working at salary that had not per-
mitted him to save.
On the outcome of this case de-.
ponds the very existence of the nation
al guard of Texas, and perhaps of
many other states. Manly has been in
Jail for nearly year and has been de-
MED bail. He was tried and convicted
in effect not of committing murder as
the verdict recites, but of being ma
tional guardsman.

THE CENSUS FIGURES.

The census figures for the state of
North Dakota has been announced by
Director f. Dana Durand, the total
population being something over ST.
900. Then years ago the federal cen
sus gave North Dakota something
more than $4,000 This shows an in
crease of about 100000 in the ten
year period. and while the total is not
as great as some enthusiastic prophets
have hoped, it shows steady and sub
stanial growth The next decade will
see a still greater proportiOnate in
crease in population. for the tide has
been flowing pretty steadily toward
the state in the past ten years and is
still flowing westward to the great az
ricultural area.
the figures so far announced do
not give the population of the cities
Of the state. but these will follow in a
short time. There is naturally great To-
cal int crest in the relative showing
made by the larger cities of the state.
1t will be found that a considerable
number of the cities show as great a
prOportiOnate increase as the state as
large. Bismarck, for example. will
no doubt show substantial growth,
and the best of it is that the census
has been taken pretty accurately and
without padding.
The figures show that Burleigh
county has doubled in population in
the past decade. Morton county has
grown from 5000 to $4,000. Other fig
ures of growth are indicative of the
substantial advance of North Dakota.
And in the next few years there ought
to be further efforts on the part of
al int crested to build and develop
North Dakota. The good work that has
been done the past ten years must
be kept up.
The central and western part of
the state show the greatest proper.
tionate increases in population. The
eastern counties have not grown with
anything like the rapidity that the
western counties have. And there is
ample room for growth in these east
ern counties, too. But there is need
through the whole state of smaller
farms, more intense cultivation and
more people supported from the soil.
This will mean not only vast in
crease in population but in wealth as
we'll.
The total figures indicate that North
Dakota will hardly get a third con-
gresham, as it was hoped would be
the case. The tendency is apt to be to
increase the number of persons in con-
gressional districts rather than to de-
crease it, and keep the total member
ship of congress as low as possible
consistent with fair representation.
Neither North nor South Dakota is
apt to gain a congressman.

LONDON THEATERS.
Tho Historic Pit That Is Fenced Of,
From the Stalls,

In the orchestra of Il London theater
there are only eight or ten rows Of
sta.s, and Immediately behind them is
the pit, which is walled off by a bar
rier or fence that stretches clear across
the theater. In the pit there are no
individual seats-merely rows Of long
benches on which the people sit rather
closely together.
1t Is, of course. impossible to reserve
seats in advance. and people who are
going to the pit have to come early on
the evening Of the performance in or
der to secure the best places.
Hence in the case Of popular play
long queue of people may be seen at
z o'clock stretching from the pit door
all along the sidewalk. waiting for the
house to open. They keep their places
very patiently in line. united by COM
mon mood of pleasurable anticipation.
experiment of selling reserved seats in
the pit at the usual price. but to this
the pit people objected strenuously on
the ground that they could seldom
know in advance just when they would
find themselves possessed of that hap
py combination Of money and an even
ing off which would permit of theater
going and preferred to take their
chances waiting in line when the for
tunate opportunity arrived.
The pit is patronized by people Of
very cstimable class and is often fire.
quentcd by we'll educated men and
women who wish to save money and

in the stalls costs half a guinea Tor ap
proximately S2.5O). place in the pit
costs only two and six Tor approx
mately 60 cents), and the play can be
seen very nearly as we'll.
In the pit the same program that is
sold in the stalls for sixpence is sold
for twopencc. and the pit has re-
freshment bar of its own which is
cheaper than the main bar of the thea.
ter OF course the real reason why
there is a pit in the London theater Is
that there has always been a pit. That
in itself is sufficient for the British
mind. but it must be admitted that the
system is on grounds Of common sense
an exceedingly good one.-Bookman.

Ever since that time that woman has

OFFICIALS BLAMED FOR WRECK
Michigan Railroad Commissions
Finding Scourges Supervisors.

LANSING, Mich, october 29-The state
railroad commission today issued it's find
ings in regard to the Grand Trunk pas
senger train wreck at Durand last Au-
gust which resulted in the death of ten
persons.
We are of the unanimous opinion
the commission says, that the Grand
Trunk officials, who at the time, had
immediate supervision and authority over
the operation of the trains and trainmen.
are primarily responsible for this wreck"
The commission exonerates Engineer
Spencer of the second section, and says
that Conductor Lacey and Brakeman
Graham of the forward train were IN
competent.
Acting Supt. John Ehrke and Train
master Akers are mentioned as having
disregarded the commissions orders to
cease operating trains with inefficient
men. 1t is charged that Ehrke resented
the demands of the commission during
the Grand Trunk strike as unwarranted
interference.

ENGINEERS REORGANIZATION
Plans Contemplate Increase of Eff.
ficiency in .'Sappers' of Army

The organization of the engineer troops
OF the army is being changed for pur-
poses of field operations. The new Or
gaaization provides that the four com
pany battalions be changed into three
company battalions. and that every fourth
battalion be formed by taking one COM
pany from each of three old battaIiona
and organizing them into a provisional
battalion.
The battalions themselves are divided
into pioneer and pontoon battalions. three
pioneer to one pontoon. One pioneer hat
TALON is attached to each division and
one pontoon battalion is attached to each
field army.
The organization of the foot companies
themselves Is practically unchanged. The
bridge eGuipage with each bridge com
pany has been doubled. During the wear
experiments have been continued in the
use OF a metal Invisible pontoon boat. in
the tactical and technical use of search
lights. and in the use OF motor trucks and
their generators. The issue of the new
engineer equipment to the troops has
been practically completed and much
equipment has been issued to the engi-
neer companies Of the organized militia.

ARMY HORSES ARE SCARCE.
Government Has Taken Steps to En-
courage Special Breeding.

Prom reports received at the War De
partment from quartermasters engaged in
the purchase of horses for the army II
appears that there Is a scarcity IN all
parts of the country Of horses suitable for
the mounted service. This IS believed to
be due TO the discontinuance OF the breed
ing of well bred horses of the type re-
duired for military purposes.
This question was taken up by the Sec
rotary OF War and the Department OF
Agriculture. and representatives of the
Agricultural and War Departments were
designated to formulate a plan for en-
couraging the breeding OF horses suitable
for the mounted service. What is believed
10 be an excellent and practicable plan
has been determined upon and will be
carried into effect by the Department OF
Agriculture. Officers of the quarterr1as-
ter department are confident that sat
isfactory results will be obtained and
that IN few years the scarcity of well
bred horses of the type required for the
mounted service will have been overcome.
