BOOM BURKE FOR PRESIDENCY

BOOM BURKE FOR PRESIDENCY
Governor Burke of North Dakota
was endorsed yesterday at Fargo by
a number of democrats of the state
who put forward his name as presi-
Dental possibility in 1912. This is
the second endorsement for the same
purpose, the first having been made
at Devils Lake. The resolution a.
dopted extols the governor and rec
ommends him to the democracy of the
nation. The resolutions conclude
with nice notice for Senator Pur-
cell.

splendid record made in congress by
our highly esteemed United States
Senator w. E. Purcell whose appoint

WORKING ON SC|EN-
T|F|C PROBLEM
CALCULATIONS MADE TO MORE
ACCURATELY DETERMINE
CENTER OF GRAVITY

Bismarck, N. D., July 23.-H. D.
King. and T. L. Warner Of Washing
ton, D. c., have been working in the
interests of the goedetic branch of
the Coast and Goedetic Survey Of the
Department of Commerce and Labor.
They have been determining the
intensity Of gravity at this point.
This station is one of considerable
number that are scattered all over
the United States. This is the third
season of this particular investiga-
tion in this country, and it will re-
quire at least one more year to fin
ish the work. The gentlemen who
have been working at Bismarck have
already made computations at four
stations this year, and they have sew
en- more to make in the northwest
before the season closes.
The intensity of gravity is deter
mined by the period of swing of stan
dardized pendulums. The pendu-
lums are standardized at the base
station at Washington, D. c., twice
a year. The computation between
the period swing of the pendulums at
Washington and the period of swing
at the different stations throughout
the country gives the intensity of
gravity at the stations relative to
no Sv,k1 1f ovyS{ OF ooh SvNcv
ton. The actual observations at
each station consume forty-eight
hours, and begins and end with ac-
curate astronomical determinations
of time.
The object of the work is primar-
lily of scientific interest and value
rather than practical. The results
form an important contribution to
data from which the exact size and
form of the earth are computed.
More particularly the pendulum and
gravity work will help determine
just what the shape of the earth is.
The data obtained are used to de-
termine to a certain extent also what
constitutes the earth's crust. Re-
cent Investigations have been mare of
the rigidity and density of the crust
of the earth in various ocalities and
the intensity of gravity help deter
mine the density, as gravity is eff
fected by density. For example, at
one station where there were heavy
ore bodies underlying the surface Of
the earth the intensity of gravity at
that point was slightly Increased.
The results of the work of this
branch of the service when complet-
ed, which will he at the end of an
other year, or about that time,
combined with great amount of
primary triangulation and astrono-
mical work to determine with great
er precision than ever the exact fig
ure of the earth.
During the Investigations of one of
the previous years a station in the
eastern part of North Dakota was
computed, but Bismarck is the only
station in the state where the work
is to be carried on this season.

ARRESTED FIRE SUSPECT

The remains of the Duffy feed
mill burned and smoldered all Mon
day and Tuesday. The wreckage was
hauled away and dumped along the
river to fill a deep hole on the south
side.
The cause Of the fire has been al
most directly traced to two or three
men, who were seen by three boys
drinking and smoking in the shed
north of the barn, just before the
blaze broke out. One man, named
Manning, was arrested by Chief of
Police Obermueller Monday evening
and identified by the boys as the man
who passed a bottle to two others
in the shed. Manning, it is alleged
is wanted for bootlegging in towns
in northern Stutsman. The boys
who identified him are Clarence Berg
strom, Bert Smith and William
Schroeder.
Manning was brought up in JUS
tice court Tuesday before JUS
tice Carr to be identified by the three
boys and tried on the charge of va
grancy. He was sentenced to 80
days at hard labor.
Mr.. Duffy intende to take over the
Case feed mill on Main street and
continue in the feed business.

the assessors returns. In a number
of townships there was an increase in
household goods from rs to 100 per
cent: also in agricultural tools, etc.,
there was an increase of 20 to 100
per cent, $ u .,,--t.-5.5,
IN several townships there was an
increase of elevator valuations from
10 to 60 per cent. Swine were equal
lied at So per head for the entire
county. sleds IS each and wagons
and carriages SIS each. Two and
three year old cattle in few town
ships were increased various amounts
and in jamestown city there was q
deduction in two year old cattle Of
33 1-3 per cent.
Lands in Round Top ownship
were equalized with other townships
and in certain cases considerable re-
ductions were made over the asses
sors returns for that township.

DEATH OF P. ]. ANDER-
SON OF ELDR|DGE
4 RESIDENT OF ELDRIDGE DIES
SUDDENLY AT HIS HOME.
FIFTH DEATH IN SAME
FAMILY

Another death occurred In the An
derson family at Eldridge. This
time the grim messenger carried of
with suddeness the head of the strick-
en- family, p. J. Anderson. He was
taken sick about o'clock Wednesday
morning and complained to one of
the children of severe pains. AS soon
as possible phone message was sent
in from Eldridge and DR.. Guest was
summoned to attend the sick man,
but before he could arrive at the resi-
dence Mr.. Anderson had expired. He
had been sleeping for some time on
the floor of the dining room, to es-
cape the hot weather, and his death
occurred on a cot in that room. He
was apparently we'll Tuesday. 1t is
supposed that he did not live over
half an hour after sending for medi-
cal aid. No cause of death was as
signed but is probably attributed to
some heart affection.
Death has smitten the Anderson
family with "a heavy hand. Since
last fall, there have occurred the
death of a young girl in California,
the death of q son at Eldridge and
the death of a wife and another son
at the city hospital, the last three
being victims of typhoid fever. The
death of Mr.. Anderson, the father,
from sudden and unspecif1ed cause
lis another instance of the unusual
misfortune that has fallen upon that
family.
Mrs. Anderson died in January last
from typhoid fever after six weeks
illness. The little daughter, Cecilia,
who died in California, was followed
few days later by the death of AL
bert at Eldridge, and on January 9th,
by the death of another son, Ber-
nard in jamestown, and now Mr.. An
derson's death, makes the fifth in a
few months from one family.
Owing to the unusual circumstan-
ces of the sudden death, it was de-
cided to hold postmortem examina-
tion upon the body of Mr.. Anderson
which was done in jamestown by
DR.. Gerrish. There were indications
of some slight change in the heart
from a normal condition and also in
the kidneys but nothing to warrant
the suddenness of Mr.. Anderson's 3
death. His stomach was removed
and will be sent to Grand Forks for
examination to determine If possible
what was the real cause Of death.
The pupils of the eyes were slightly
|dilated.
A note was left addressed to his
son Clarence and was found neatly
folded on the table in the room and
was evidently written before he was
taken sick. It was dated July 26th,
and said: when I am dead, please
notify the Modern Woodmen of A.
merica, and have them bury me. !"
(signed) P. j. Anderson.
The deceased was found on the
floor where he had died, having taken
OF his coat and shoes. His other
clothing was upon him when found.
It is possible owing to grief from
the loss of his wife and children,
and from other causes and reasons
unknown, that the deceased may
have seen fit to end his life by his
own hands, but this is q theory that
is yet to be substantiated by con-
elusive evidence.
The funeral will be announced lat
er. A sister, Mrs. Peterson, resides
at Darlington and is expected to be
present.
