Popular love Of art may be carried

on the occasion Of the sack OF Rome

captain, Reuzo da Ceri. and cutting
the bridges Ponte Quattro Capt and
Ponte Sisto. The people declined on
the ground that they were too beau
siful."

MANY NEGROES TAKING UP
HOMESTEADS IN CANADA

OTTAWA, Ont, April 4.-The
movement of negroes into western
Canada to take up free homesteads
has reached such proportions that
an attempt is being made on the part
of some members Of parliament to
pass an act restricting their emigra-
ton.
1t is said that hundreds of negro
settlers had emigrated from the
United States and that this should be
discontinued, because the negroes
were unsuited to conditions in Can
ada and would not make good citi-
zens.

that there was nothing to prohibit

OLD-TIME BOOSTER
REVISITS GRANTS PASS

j. T. Flynn, now Of San Diego,
Cal, but for some years connected
with Grants Pass In financial way,
was a visitor here Saturday. Mr..
Flynn had charge of the Grants Pass
townslte and In 1890 sent the first
railroad excursion train to this city
and used very freely Of printers ink
in the Portland and local papers. This
was Fl years ago, and at that time
he boosted for the Grants Pass and
Crescent City railroad. He dropped
off here Saturday as he was return
ing from Seattle and Portland, this
being his first visit here for II years,
although he has passed through here
occasionally.
Mr.. Flynn Is now harbor engineer
for San Diego harbor. His plans
inaugurated there will call for an ex-
penditure of somewhere near $4,000
900. the plans he made for the re-
claiming of the Oakland and Ala
media, CAL, mole are being carried
out for this harbor. He was greatly
pleased with the present condition
Of Grants Pass and says he sees
great future for the city. but he says
that what Grants Pass and Josephine
county needs is district irrigation,
which will make. It's population one
of the largest In southern Oregon.
Mr.. Flynn was entertained at din
ler and taken out In automobile by
lis old friend, Arthur Conklin, who
vas associated with him in handling

GRANTS PASS MAY HAVE
POSTAL SAVINGS BANK

The inauguration OF the postal
: savings system by the establishment
, OF one depository in each state of
the Union has attracted great deal
OF attention and there Is an increas-
ing desire among the people Of Ore
gon to give 1t good trial In this
state. The depository for Oregon
was established at klamath Falls
about a year ago and from all re-
ports has proven entirely satisfac-
tory to the patrons of the postoffice
there, the only persons who are al
lowed TO patronize II under the re-
gulations. These repositories are
established for the purpose OF pro-
yiding facilities for depositing saw
ings az interest with the security OF
the United States government for re-
payment, and the faith OF the United
States is solemnly pledged to the pay
ment Of deposits with accrued inter
est as provided by law. The service
OF the postal savings system Is free,
and no charge or fee is collected or
required In connection with the open
Ing OF an account or the withdrawal
OF money deposited.
Representative Hawley desires
that this system be extended over the
first congressional district as rapid
ly as 1t can be done under the regul-
ations, and repositories established
where 1t Is believed there Is sufficient
interest to make the venture q sue
cess. Besides the retention of the
depository at klamath Falls he has
requested that one be established at
his home city OF Salem and another
at Grants Pass, and has received the
following letter which indicates that
this will probably be done: u

WOMAN CAUGHT
IN BAD PRACTICE
PLEADED GUILTY OF SOLICITING
ON THE STREETS WHEN CON-
FRoNTED WITH THE CHARGE
MAN CONFESSED THAT HE HAD
NEVER WORKED.

Gertrude Evans was arrested, last
evening, for soliciting on the streets.
She had bothered several persons pass
ing on the street and an officer was
near when she stopped pedestrian.
Catching her in the act he arrested
her.
Judge Miller sentenced her to pay a
fine Of $40 or spend sixteen days in
jail. She smiled when the sentence
was passed and thought that it was
really joke. She informed the judge
that she would get out Of the city at
once when she discovered that it was
the straight goods, but the court was
not willing to let her escape the sent
ence.
Tony Skalle represented more nerve
than any man that has appeared in
the police court for some time. He
entered the courtroom with a lighted
cigar and sat in his chair smoking 1t
as nice as anyone until discovered.
When standing before the court
Skalle informed the jurist that he new
er worked. When asked what he did
for living he stated that he just went
around and picked up things, but that
he had never worked since he had been
in Fargo. He was sentenced to the city
training school for work and will as
sist the staff of men who work on the
streets.
Ed Hunter seemed to be the only
real working man in the police court
this morning. He had just finished one
job and had come to Fargo where he
had purchased some new clothing. He
wore the clothing as evidence of his
good intentions, and the court released
him so that he might go back to work.
even though he did plead guilty of be-
ing drunk.
AL Kane, Barney Ftnnegan and Bill
Lommer received sentences for being
intoxicated. John #. Lotus and James
McKinnoon were In the court for vag-
rancy and they received strong sent

CLEARING HOUSE
RECEIPTS SCARS
MONTH or AUGUST EXCEEDS
FARGO CLEARING HOUSE RE-
cEIPTs FOR CORRESPONDING
MONTH OF LAST YEAR OVER
HALF MILLION DOLLARS.

Anyone who says business in Fargo
this summer and especially this month
has been poor, makes tremendous
error for the clearing house receipts
today show that this has been the big
.gest month in the year and that the
amount of business done here ex-
ceeded that of August 1910 over half
million dollars.
The receipts for the month which
closes today amounted to $3,619,4S4.14
and the receipts Of the Fargo clear
ing house for August 1910 amounted
to s3.0S5, e92.I2, which is a gain of
S53s442.02, or over a half million dol
ars increase in the volume of business
over last year.
This is a very excellent showing
and certainly does a great deal to
refute the many discouraging state
ments that have been circulated that
business in Fargo this year has not
been as good as that of a year ago,
which was not considered so good as
1909. But the receipts of the Fargo
clearing house today show that the
prospects are much brighter and that
business confidence is beginning to be
restored to a pronounced extent.
The receipts of the clearing house
for the week ending today noon
amounted to 1867 ,77628, while the re-
ceipts Of the clearing house for the
corresponding week of last year
amounted to $59S,1s6.54, which shows
a gain of $79,5s9,74. This is an even
better showing and Is more convinc-
ing of the statement made above that
business is increasing this year.
The clearing house receipts for to-
day ending today noon totaled $685.
696.72, which Is steady increase over
what the daily reports have beer
showing. The local bankers and f1nan-
ciers of the city are smiling today q
broad optimistic smile, for it means
that a general wave Of prosperity /:
coming and that Is what will make
the country grow and help the devel-
opment Of North Dakota and the city
Of Fargo.
