N. D. GIRL MAKES
AN INVESTIGATION
SHE SAYS FACTORY CONDITIONS
IN MASSACHUSETTS ARE
NOT TOO BAD.

Boston, Mass, July 4.-Miss Edith
Reeves of North Dakota, who has beer
twice honored by winning the gradu-
ate fellowship at Radcliffe college, in
economics, and who purposes to de.
vote her life to the study and allevia-
ton Of conditions in mills and facto-
ries, has created quite sensation by
ner testimony before the Massachu-
sets factory commission.
Miss Reeves has been posing as a
poor factory girl" and has been
working in several mills through the
state. She started with the expecta-
ton Of finding all manner of startling
conditions, she said. But Miss Reeves
said the result of her experience is
the factory girl hasn't such very
hard time after all; that she found
nothing horrible
Former Senator Apsey, chairman
of the commission, questioned Miss
Reeves.
Did you ever work in a factory
outside of Massachusetts" he asked.
mo-" said Miss Reeves.
And you say that in all those Won
have worked in here, conditions were
good?"
"Oh, no., Miss Reeves said, SO
quickly that everybody laughed.
But do say this, that they were
reasonably good"
The hearing was very largely at
tended by the settlement workers and
others. who frankly expected Miss
Reeves to tell story OF shocking ex-
perience, but the Dakota girl declined
to be a muckraker. She said she pro
posed to tell just what she saw with
fairness to everybody. When she de-
clared she found the mills reason
ably safe" for girls, she caused a
greater sensation than she could have
created If she had given the expect
ed story of the scandalous treatment
Of their girl employees by some of
the mill owners.
Miss Reeves says she worked at the
benches and machines just like the
others who were doing 1t for their
bread and butter. Her fellow workers
thought she was an ambitious mill girl
who asked SO many questions because
she was anxious to get another and
better position.

Facstiousness at crookston.

Crookston Times: The rumors Of a
fuel famine in Crookston are not well
founded. When several complaints
were made during the past week that
coal orders had not been filled, The
Times made a canvass of the fuel
dealers and all have enough coal on
hand to supply any immediate demands
unless the weather should change.
Refrigerator fuel is still abundant, but
the poor icemen are working overtime
to distribute it. Manager Bracelin Of
the Northwestern Telephone Co., SOL
EMMY declared that he had an extra
crew Of men working on the main
cables the past three days, scraping off
the we're all out of ice" messages
being fired at the ice dealers, which
messages had clogged the wires.

GooDRY-WALkS OUT DOOR
AND DRINKS DRUG.

Minneapolis, July AFTER kissing
MS wife and daughter, whom he had
seen but infrequently in three years.
when his fortune took a downward
trend, Joseph Kelly, 80 years old. last
night drank the contents of a bottle
and fell unconscious at the door of his
mother-in-law, Mrs. Kate Burnett. 500
Third street south. He was fastened
in the police ambulance to the citv
hospital, where for hours his life was
IN the balance. The bottle contained
a deadly drug.
Troubles Begin.
Three years ago Kelly was a book
keeper. He was in good circumstances.
The home was neat and cozy, the hap
piness of his wife and little daughter,
Ruth, was the one thing he cared for.
About that time he was seized with
writer's cramp, had to change his work
and his troubles had begun. Two
months ago Mrs. Kelly and Ruth went
to live. with Mrs. Kate Burnett, Mrs.
Kelly's mother.
Shortly after dark last night Kellv
went to the home of his mother in law.
He said he wished to see his wife, and
"AAASAA SAAC SS1tlAC 10 the uOOr SAID to her.
Myrtle I want to kiss Ruth goodbye
and kiss you goodby, too
The finality in his voice aroused his
wife, but she said she did not fully
realize that he might be contemplating
ending his life. He kissed his child
and wife, bade them goodbye and closed
the door. A few minutes later Mrs
Burnett found him lying at the door
way gasping. A bottle partially filed
with dark liquid was beside him.
Dread of Paupers Grave.
In his pocket was found written on a
bit OF paper he had asked for at the
house: 'Dr. ]. w. Kelly, Bigstone
Gap, w. Va. Send funeral expenses TO
sos Third street south"
Mrs. Kelly said last night that her
husband had often said he dreaded the
thought of being buried in the potters'
field, This fear, she said, had kent
MIN from putting into execution his
previous threats to end his life.
