humane SOCIETY GETS
numerous COMPLAINTS
PRESIDENT WILLIAM BLAKE is A
VERY BUSY MAN THESE
DAYS.
Was Called Out of the City Before He
Had Finished Here BY Large
Number Of Calls.

State Humane Officer VIM. Blake,
who has been spending few days in
the Capital City. is very busy man.
He came to Bismarck expecting to
devote considerable time here anu to
perfect the local humane organization
but although he was here only two
days the letters he received from var
ious parts of the state showed how
urgent his work is.
For instance he received one let
ter, and he left for that place on
No. 8 Monday afternoon. The letter
said in part:
About September II there was a
mixed load of cattle and hogs load
ed at Lisbon to be shipped to St.
Paul. AS they were pulling out of
town the car caught fire. A few Of
the cattle were burned to death. They
got the car open, however and jumped
the others out. They were driven
back to town and sold. These cattle
that are still alive are within mile
of Lisbon, and they are something aw
full to look at. Their backs are raw
sore, and their eyes look as if they
were burned so that they are about
blind"
A letter which Mr.. Blake received
from Casselton states that there is
farmer there that waters his cattle
only twice week, although every
now and then he waters them every
two days. The believing of the thirs-
ty animals is said to be something
fierce.
At Streeter a dog was abused by
gang of hoodlums. 1t was a splen-
did Scotch collie, and it was later
killed by its tormentors and it's body
found in badly mutilated condition.
Such cruelty will be given Mr.. Blake's
immediate attention.
At Grand Forks horse has been
starved and misused. There is an
other case at Grand Forks of some
children which have to be cared for
At Medina there is family of
eight children. Five of them have al
ready been adopted out, as their par
ents have died. There are still three
little boys, one aged seven, another
aged nine and the third aged eleven,
that must be provided for with homes.
From Pingree comes the complaint
that there is abuse of stock occurring
there that is just about as bad as that
by some of the grading crews.
And so the number grows. These
complaints enumerated here came to
Mr.. Blake in his mail of only two days
time. He has left to attend to them
and will return to Bismarck as soon
as he can as he intends to build up
strong local organization before he
finishes here.
The work of the humane society
is altogether supported by donations.
Mr. Blake does not receive a cent ex-
cept his expenses and he has certi-
fed voucher for every cent that he
uses.
The membership fee is only one dol
lar a year and by joining the organi-

SWEPT
BY VIOLENT
Wind STORM h
Million Dollar Damage Done
in City Of Havana
Alone
Natives Rendered Homeless
But TO Deaths are
Reported
Wind and Rain has Stopped
and no More Damage
Expected

Havana, Oct. 1.-THE island OF
Cuba has probably sustained the great
est material disaster in all her his
tory in the practically continuous scy'
clone which began with light rains OH
Thursday morninf, developing into tor
rental floods and devastating hurri'
canes and continuing until this even
ing. The western half Of the island
suffered more severely than the east.
The first cyclone, Of which there
was some warninf, had hardly abated
on Sunday night, when suddenly the
wind, which up to then had been
southeast changed to southwest and
with renewed fury, the cyclone swept
over Matanzas, Pinar del Rio and Ha'
vana provinces completing the de-
struction wrought by the first storm.
1t is impossible to estimate even
roughly the amount of damage, which
,foubtles will aggregate many mill
ions OF dollars. In addition to the
great destruction to sugar and tobac-
co plantations, many thousands of
peasants in the three western prov.
inces have been rendered homeless
and destitute by the loss of their
homes and the food crops especially
plantation of corn.
1t now seems probable that the re-.
public may be compelled to request
international aid for them. hile all
communication with the interior has
been cut off there is reason to hope
that Oriente, Camaguey and Santa
Clara have escaped the greatest fury
of the storm.
In the city of Havana the losses
probably will exceed million doll
ars, mainly due to the destruction Of
the customs house sheds, which were
filled with perishabfe goods, the sink
ing of scores of lighters, many Of
them containing valuable cargoes,
which had been unloaded from steam
ers and the submerging of about one
square mile of the residential section
of the city, facing the sea.
At 10 o'clock p. m. wind and rain
had ceased and there were no indi-
cations of further storm.

JULIA Ward Howe
PASSED TO reward
By associated Press.

By associated Press.
Middletown, R. l., Oct. 17.-Julia
Ward Howe is dead. Bowed under
the weight of nniety-one years, the
noted philanthropist and author sue.
cumbed today to an attack of pneu-
monia.
The end came peacefully in her
summer home here. Her three daugh'
ters were at the bedside but her son
was absent.
The funeral will be held at the
church of the Disciples, Unitarian, in
Boston Thursday.
Those who knew her intimately,
said that Mrs. Howe's unfailing opti-
mism was the great source and sup
port of her manifold activities. Born
in a cultured home in New York City
and educated with care, she showed
early a remarkably avidity for study
and superior literary tastes. She was
but % years of age when she came
to Boston and met DR.. Samuel Gridley
Howe, the great philanthropist, and
two years later they were married.
From that time until DR.. Howe's
death in 1876, this remarkable couple
showed a never firing co-partnership
of activity in all things making for
the uplift of mankind.
After her husbands death Mrs.
Howe continued her work for many
a worthy cause. Although perhaps
best known on her literary side as
the author of the Battle Hymn of the
Republic" Mrs. Howe was the author
of many other poems, of which she
had published several columns, and
of many prose works.
