SPECIAL VANS FOR BIG HATS.
Austrian Government Calamity Pro-

So Eallantly disposed is the Austrian
government toward its fairer subjects
that the postal authorities have decid
ed to devote special parcel delivery
vans to the transport of the extremely
large hats which are the mode in Aus

Many complaints were received from
their customers by the leading milli-

creations reached their destination in
the form of an unrecognizab!e tangle

SUPREME COURT IN THIS
CITY WEDNESDAY.
Fred Mclean Thinks He Has Some
thing Coming for Breach Of Con.
tract Entered Into.

In the supreme court yesterday was
filed the appeal in the case of Fred

the lower court. Mclean was at one
time, in the various mutations of the
News, engaged as business manager
under six year contract. He was
relieved Of his position after a COM

that he did not render skilful service.
He brought suit to enforce his con-
tract and the case was taken from the
jury by the court and a verdict d.
rected for the defendant company.
The appeal is from that judgment.
MCLEAN was a former resident of
Cavalier county. He was at one time
a member Of the legislature and serv-
ed as secretary to Senator Roach, the
first democratic United States senator
from the state.

MCFARLAND Tells
OF TYPHOID STORY
CASES WERE CONFINED TO ONE
HOUSE AND THERE IS NO
DANGER OF SPREAD.
Three Of the Cases Were Brought to
Bismarck and Two Of Them Arc Of
Very Minor Nature.

President NcNarland of the Valley
City normal school, il in the city and
when seen by Tribune reporter and
asked regarding the reported prevail
ence of typhoid fever among the stu
dents at his school. said
1T is true that there are six cases
among the students Of the school but
they all originated In one house and
so far I have not heard OF any other
cases. The conditions of the house
were undoubtedly the cause of the
six cases There we're two places at
which water was kept, one pail being
from the river and the other, for
drinking purposes. Was from the regu'
lar water: suppay az the city. There
was only one dipper where the water
was kept and It Is undoubtedly fact
that when the drinking water oai1 was
empty that the girls, rather than go
for fresh water, used that from the
river, which was taken from q few
feet below where the sewage from q
hospital WAS emptaed into the river.
There is 10 cause tor alarm among the
parents Of those Mho have children at
the school, a. there vas only one
place where the cases originated and
conditions there h4vo been changed
so there IS no danger from that source
