Hair Monstrositjes,

French theater managers in the
eighteenth century had worse evils
than picture hats to contend against.
Marie Antoinette. who was short even
according to French standards, set the
fashion Of high coiffures. and ultra
fashionable women prided themselves
on measuring four feet from their
chins to the tops Of their heads.
These structures took about six hours
to erect, the hairdresser mounting a
ladder In the process. Some coiffures
were almost as broad as they were
long. with wings sticking out about
eight inches on each side of the head.
For the "frigate' couture the hair was
rippled in huge pile to represent the
waves Of an angry sea and surmount-
ed by fully rugged ship AS con-
sequence of these monstrosities dis
turbanceS in theaters occurred almost
daily until an ordinance was issued
against the admission of women with
high col:'ure> to the floor of the house.

B0lD ATTEMPT At
BURGLARY SATURDAY
SNEAK THIEF TRIES TO MAKE
HAUL At YEGEN'S
STORE
va. Scared in His Attempt by PATROL
man Ely, but Made Wonderful Geta'
way-Seen by Outsiders.

There was a bold attempt at rob-
berry late Saturday night when a
sneak thief forced his way into the
grocery store owned by John Yegen.
He was frightened in his effort by
Patrolman Ely, however, and succeed
ed in making a clean getaway.
Ely noticed light burning before
the cash register on one of his rounds
and remembered that no light was
customary there. He tried the door
and shook it very hard. 1t appears
that the thief had just lighted the
lamp when Ely tried the doors and
was thereby frightened away.
The night clerk at the 500 hotel
saw q man run across the top of the
framework of the Hotel Miller, and
hurrletlly climb down to the ground
and disappear. This was at the time
that Ely tried the door, and the fell
low was evidently the guilty party.
Had he but turned around from
where he lighted the lamp, the thief
would have found the cash register
wide open, and with considerable
amount of change in it. As 1T was he

DON'T KILL THE TOAD,

Prof. Washburn of the Minnesota di.
vision of entomology at the university
farm finds toads to be friends Of the
farmer. They feed entirely upon an
incredible number of insects. The
federal department of agriculture, in.
vestigating the toad, discovers the
startling fact that in "a hours the
insect food consumed by one toad
equals in quantity four times the ca
pacity of its stomach, which it prac-
tically fills and empties four times a
day. One hundred and tifty-nine stom-
achs examined by the department
showed a content of 10 per cent Of
ants; Is per cent of cut worms; 10
per cent of thousand legged worms;
9 per cent of caterpillars; 8 per cent
of ground beetles; per cent of de-
structive weavels; 8 per cent of grass
hoppers, together with crickets. spid-
ers, SOW bugs, potato bugs, and mis-
celaneous lot of other insects. Pro-
tect the toad. Teach the thoughtless
boy friendliness to this helpless,
useful animal.

new CASHIER Of
first NATIONAL BANK
J. LEONARD BELL HAS BEEN PRO.
NOTED TO THE VICE PRES.
IDENCY.
Board Of Directors Hold important
Meeting Monday - Frank e. Shep.
ard Made Cashier.

At meeting of the directors of the
First National bank yesterday, J. L.
Bell. who has been cashier of the
bank, was promoted to the vice presi.
dency, a substantial advancement.
Mr.. Bell is a Bismarck product, q
graduate Of the local high school, and
his energy. fidelity and efficiency are
thus recognized by promotion to an
important place in this we'll known
financial institution, and it must be q
source of qualification to him as we'll
as pleasure TO his friends.
The position of cashier of the bank
was filled by the election of Mr.. Frank
E. Shepard, formerly of the First Ma
tional bank Of Concord, N. H. Mr..
Shepard is banker of experience,
and gentleman of pleasing address
and culture. He will prove valuable
addition to the official establishment
of the bank, and will prove popular
with the people of Bismarck. Mr.. and
Mrs. Shepard and their child arrived
in the city several days ago and are
stopping with Col. G. B. Little and
family until they are able to obtain
house. Mrs. Shepard was formerly
Miss Nettie Little, and IL sister of
President Little of tha First National.
She will be remembered in Bismarck,
having Visited here several years ago.
The First National is one of the old
est and best known financial institu.
tons in the state, and is one OF the
three leading financial institutions at
the present day. 1t has deposits Of
we'll over million dollars, a large
and growing business, and it has al
ways been capable and popularity of.
f1cered-something that has contribu.
ted much to its solidity, popularity
and success. Its last statement made
splendid showing for the bank, as
we'll as for the community in which
Wink. who is the grand examiner of
1t transacts business.
President c. B. Little of the First
National, has been resident of the
state for nearly thirty years, and en-
gagged in the banking business for
much of that time. He is careful,
conservative, and has a reputation as
one of the best bankers in the state,
and this seems warranted by the
splendid condition of the First Ma.
tional.

CALL ELECTION FOR
$4,000 FIRE HALL
CITY COMMISSIONERS WILL TRY
TO GET At WILL OF THE
PEOPLE AGAIN..
Date of Election Has Not Been Fixed
Date Of Election Has Not Been Fixed
as Vet - Little Other Business is
Transacted Last Evening.

The feature of the meeting of the
city commission last evening was the
introduction of a resolution calling for
a special city election to determine
whether or not the city shall issue
bonds in the sum Of $4,000 for the
erection of a fire hall. There was a
considerable discussion of the matter
and it was finally decided to let the
matter go over to the next meeting
for decision as to the date of the cleo
ton.
1t will be remembered that the city
has already voted $4,000 for the cree
ton of a city hall and 1t remains to
be seen just how the latter proposition
will strike the people, and also wheth'
err there can be an election held on
this question at the present time.
The matter of extending the water
mains so that the people who will
build in the new Riverside addition,
was taken up and it was decided to
have the company extend the mains
and to have the city take the required
number of hydrants or fire plugs.
There was an opinion on the board
that it was hardly fair for the city
to be asked to make more fixed charg-
es, but in view of the fact that there
is considerable building going on and
that the mains must be extended at
once, they decided to vote for the
move.
This will mean also the installation
of a fire plug near the International
Harvester company building. Commits
sioner Jackson introduced a resolution
calling for the appropriation of 5000
to be used in the construction of an
outlet for flood waters. This is made
necessary on account of the continual
flooding of Easements in the business
districts of the city.
A claim was presented by Orris
Roberts for $40 damages claimed to
have been done to his horse, rig and
harness by coming in contact with a
post which he alleges was illegally
placed in public highway. The mat
ter was referred to Commissioner
Jackson and the city attorney and
they are expected to make a report
at the next meeting of the commits
sion
A petition was presented signed by :
:enants and employees Of the First Ma
ional bank building. asking that the
commission prevent the burning of
'ubbish in the alley adjoining the
between the hours of 8 a. m.
md p. M, and also asking that the
neat markets desist from rendering
ard during the same hours as the Cd
n is very disagreeable and also dan
,erous to health. The matter was re-
erred to the city attorney and Street
Commissioner Jackson for investiga- !
ion and action 1t is probable there
will have to be an ordinance passed '
n the matter as there is nothing ,
overing that particular case at the ]
resnet time. {
