State jewelers. Hold
Busy Session Today
Welcomed to City by Mayor EiOtResponse Made by Pres
ident Kent of Grand Forks Constitution Of Organ
izatiOn UndergOeS Some Changes.

With an attendance from almost ev-
cry part of the state the first annu-
a! session of the North Dakota Retail
jewelers. association was held at the
Commercial club today. The meet
ing was called to order by Pres. Frank
V. Kent of Grand Forks and he intro
duced Mayor Peter Elliott who de-
livered short but hearty address of
welcome
The response was made on behalf
of the jewelers. by President Kent who
also delivered his annual address to
the association.
Presidents Annual Address.
President Kent is a real live wire
and his talk was the feature of the
morning session
One OF the most important things
which he discussed was the matter
! or the establishment of mutual fire
insurance company among the Jewell
| ers of the state. He stated that the
retail hardware men have organized
| such a company which is meeting with
| good success and he believed that It
would be good thing for the jewellers.
| However he was not certain that the
| association was strong enough as yet
to carry II.
He talked also about holding semi
| annual meetings of the association in
stead of the annual affairs which are
now held. He urged the publication
or the minutes of the association in
pamphlet form just as soon after the
annual convention as possible so that
! those jewelers. of the state who did
| not attend could see what they missed
while the fact of the convention was
still warm in their memories
Another important matter taken up
| by the president was that of having
full printed programme for each
convention getting advertising matter
to paw for 1t. He believed that il
would be a good thing.
"A: o. Void of Langdon followed the
president with paper on The Good of
the Association. He told the benefits
which were derived from attending the
annual meetings, with their exchange
of ideas and general broadening effect,
and he scored those jewelers. of the
state who might have been here 5nt

Hotel Business in N. D. Rushing and
That Means People are
Prospering.

Grand Forks Herald: Among promi-
nent hotel men from oves the state
at the convention is Ed Cole, the vet
eran hotel man of Fargo. Veteran is
hardly the word to use in connection
with Mr.. Cole, either, for although he
has been eighteen years in the BUSH
ness, he is the youngest" hotel man
in the state and the most optimistic.
No class OF business men are more
capable of sizing up the progress of
prosperity or panic in the country
than the average hotel man. Mr.. Cole
says:
North Dakota will see the greatest
prosperity in the next year or two
that the state has ever known. Why,
every hotel man you meet is either
building a new hotel or making some
big addition to the old one. have
been busy for year building the new

Remained Faithful Uuto Death.

While the Confederate veterans
are beinghonored let us not forget
the faithful slaves, for whom the
veterans themselves have a very
tender regard. Wherever they are
found, the few remaining slaves of
former years should receive kindly
consideration, not only for past
faithfMness as servants but for their
protection of the wives and chill
dren at home during the war, which
fidelity is without parallel in his
tory. In this connection, the wri-
ter desires to pay a tribute to I'm
Gle" Alfred Butler who died last
week. He it was who slept many a
night during the Civil war upon the
front piazza of our great grand
mother, protecting the inmates of
the house. Soon after the war I'm
Gle" Alfred entered the employment
of Mr.. A. J. Norris and remained
with the family until his death.
During the prolonged illness of MI.
Norris Uncle" Alfred was constant
ly with him, rendering in his hum
BILE way whatever service he could.
Remaining. true to the promise
made Mr.. Norris, Uncle" Alfred
has been loyal and faithful to Mrs.
Norris and Mrs. Tillman. He al
was carried the keys and protected
their property as if it had been his
own. When a suspicious no Use was
heard about the premises he would
get down his old gun and stay up
the remainder of the night, saying
Miss Mary, you all go to bed. If
anything harms you, it will be over
my dead body" Who does not ad-
mire and honor such loyalty, such
faithfulness, such devotion to duty?
The faithfulness of Uncle" AL
fred was not without reward and
sincere appreciation on the part OF
those whom he served. Mrs. Nor
ris and Mrs. Tillman gratifed his
every wish when in health, and
when the good old man was strick-
en-, occupying a house in the yard,
they ministered to him with theil
own hands, personally seeing thai
nothing was left undone.that would
contribute to his comfort or allevi

loss has been very keenly felt. AS

Harmony's Successful Florists.

Notwithstanding the absence of
the April showers and the belated
May rains, one sees in driving hith-
er and thither many beautiful flow,
+ers. The fact is, be it said to the
credit of the Edgefcld ladies, both
in the towns and rural districts,
more attention seems to be given to
cultivating flowers now than in
former years. Two of the most
beautiful sights the writer's eyes
have beheld this spring were the
geraniums of Mrs. Manly DeLoach
and Miss Annie DeLoach. We
were impressed both with the va,
riety of colors and the great pro.
