TWO met Death
IN EXPLOSION

Bowman, March 11.-An accident,
which may cause the death of Mrs. C.
B. Mackey and her brother, Ted Jerg.
ensen, occurred at the home Of Mr..
Jergensen, near Amor. Mrs. Jergen.
sen was away from home and the
daughters who lived near, have been
doing the Homework during her alb
sence.
Thursday, Mrs. Mackey went over
there to get dinner ready. and her
brother, Ted Jergensen, was starting
the fire in the kitchen range. 1t
did not start quick enough, so he
picked up a three gallon can of kero.
sene and poured some on the fire.
He was talking to his sister at the
time and possibly got more on the fire
than he intended, at any rate, the
flames reached the kerosene can, the
can exploded, throwing the blazing
oil over the young man and his sis
ter. There was barrel of water
standing near and into this young
Jorgensen jumped, extinguishing the
flames, but not until he had been SER
iously burned. Mrs. Mackey's clothing!
was one sheet Of flames when her faith
er rushed out and wrapped her in a
blanket, extinguishing the flames. III
doing so Sc had his hands badly
burned.

GARBLED QUOTATIONS.

Popular Passages That Are Frequently
Rendered Incorrectly.
Almost everybody who quotes at all
misquotes. Nothing Is more common
than to hear:
A man convinced against his will
II Of the same opinion still.
This Is an impossible condition Of
mind, for no one can be convinced Of
one opinion and at the same time hold
to an opposite one. What Butler wrote
was eminently sensible:
He that complies against his will
Is Of his own opinion still.
A famous passage of Scripture is Of
ten misquoted thus: HE that is with.
out sin among you let him cast the
first stone" 1t should be. LET him
first cast stone"
Sometimes we are told, Behold, how
great a fire a little matter kindleth,'
whereas st. James said. Behold, how
great matter little fire kindleth,"
which Is quite different thing.
We also hear that "a miss Is as good
as mile," which is not as sensible
or forcible as the true proverb, "A
miss Of an inch Is as good as a mile"
Look before you leap" should be
"And look before you ere you leap"
Pope Is generally credited With hav-
ing written:
Immodcst words admit Of no defense,
For want Of decency Is want Of sense.

the verses in his writings. They were

matter for some twelve years, and
have been upon the board some ten
years, and l feel that it would be a
great mistake to defeat the PROPOSE
ton to bond for q new high school
building. We simply must have new
building and for the plain and simple
reason of necessity of room and the
need of a properly equipped high
school building. am positive that the
taxes that will be required to be raised
will be less to the taxpayers if a new
building is erected than the amount
required for rental. If the taxpayers
defeat the proposition of bonding for
new building, then the board would
be required to provide suitable quar-.
tiers, and the rental of suitable rooms
would be as much, if not more, than
the amount of interest on the bonds.
We have good schools, but they can
be greatly improved upon by furnish.
ing the proper room and equipment.
l have visited the schools during the
past school year, and know that the
pupils are doing good work and that
the teachers are entitled to great
credit, under the circumstances.

new Sewer SYSTEM
FOR VALLEY CITY

Valley City. N. D., March 1.-THE
city council at special meeting has
worked out the plans for a big trunk
sewer to relieve the city Of the me-
mace of the Sheyenne river which is
little more than an open sewer. The
council has been in consultation with
Chas. T. DeLemere, the consulting en-.
gineer of Bismarck, and he will short
ly arrive in the city to run levels,
ascertain the most feasible route for
the sewer and to furnish to the coun'
ell estimates of the cost.
Mr.. DeLemere considers from pre-
1iminary survey of the general topo-
graphy of the city, that the sewer
would start somewhere in the neigh
borhood of the mill and run west, in
tercepting the laterals which now
empty into the river on the north side.
It would follow first street and would
Cross the river twice and after the Sec
ond crossing bear west across Tracy's
addition and empty into the river be-
low the rapids. There would have to

Historic Beauties.

The famous beauties Of the world are
wise when they leave no portraits Of
themselves. Take Marguerite Of Va
lois. She was an immoral, dishonor.
able, criminal, scheming, interruptions
villainess, but she was lowered with
such charm that there was not jailer
or an enemy she could not charm when
she tried. No, nor woman-not even
the wives of her lovers. Men came
from every country, taking year long
journeys, only to see her and went
away, after a little, glimpse, saying
they had "seen loneliness ITSELF" Then
one sees her portraits. Too much fore
head, not enough eyebrow, straight
nose and expressive mouth (n one pic
ture a lovely mouth)-and that is all.
Mary, queen Of Scots, was very lovely
three kingdoms battled because of
her beauty-and yet her pictures leave

WHAT THE SCHOOLS COST.


Editor Tribune:
Bismarck needs a high school build
ing for several reasons. The state re-
ouires manual training in all nrst'
class high schools. We have not now
or ever had any suitable place to put
in a course of manual training or do
nestle science. We need good gym
nasium for the boys, and We need a
suitable place for other courses re-
ouired in a first-class high school.
BY building a high school, that WILL
give us the four rooms now used Tor
high school purposes for the grades.
About the cost Of maintaining our
schools for the past four years, they
have been as follows:
Expenditures for 1907 ......$24, 529.11
Expenditures for 1908 ...... 21,S97.32
Expenditures for 1909 ...... 2S.496.15
Expenditures for 1910 ...... 29,179.03
The tax levy for these same years
were for 1907, $1,5OO.00; 1908, $780,
10000; 1909, $22,500.00; 1910, $751;
SOC. 90. The board has received large
amount of funds each year from the
two mill tax and state apportionment,
which has gone toward the running ex.
penses of the school. The exact
amount of this fund can be obtained
from the city treasurer books. During
the past five years $12,000.00 of the
bonded debt of the district has been
paid off, and there is now about $751;
10000 in cash in the sinking fund.
The expense Of maintaining high
school should not exceed an addition
al levy Of 100000 per year. This
would include the annual interest on
the 100000 of bonds, and would
provide 100000 for the sinking fund
each year.
I believe that the bond issue should
carry, and that Bismarck should have
a first.class high school building.
Respectfully,
w. A. FALCONER,
Member Board of Education.

An Experience With thu Customs
Officials At kermanstah.
In eastern lands the collecting of
customs dues is attended with per.
haps more than ordinary fraud. In
his book, From Batum to Baghdad,"
Mr.. w. B. Harris has told bis expert.
ence with the customs officers of Ker-
manshah. The incident had its com.
1cal feature as we'll as its serious les
son:
Two hours later than l had intended
we made start and. proceeding through
the long tunnel.like bazaars, emerged
from the town. Here fate had annoy
ance in store for me. At the local Gus.
tom house the guards wanted TO search
US and make us pay duty on our scanty
baggage.
I had hired mule to carry our sad.
dlebags as far as Baghdad, using the
owner of the mule, a willy old Arab
who accompanied us, as guide. These
two, mule and man, the guards abso-
lutely refused to let pass without my

ical baksheesh. This stoutly refused
to do, and. knowing that in the east a
show Of temper is of no avail, l swal.
lowed my wrath and argued coolly and
collectedly with the soldiers.
Soon they confessed that they had
no right to touch either me or any
animal Of mine, but they maintained
that the mule and the rider were both
Arabs and that therefore l could not
interfere.
This was just what l wanted and !
solved the matter in a minute. l put
the Arab on my horse and l rode his
mule. There was no question about it
then. The guards on their own con-
fession could stop neither me nor my
horse. and we rode quietly on amid
the laughter of the men to change
our mounts again fifty yards past the
custom house.

be another sewer on the south side
of the river, following Normal ave
nue. and taking care of the laterals
which run direct to the river. It and
the south side sewers would join the
trunk line between the two bridges on
Eighth avenue.
This work will be gigantic un.
dertaking, and, it is estimated, would
not cost less than $30,0Ov. This, of
course, would make necessary the vot.
ing of bonds.
There is a provision of statute,
whereby the debt limit is suspended
for bonds for the purpose of con.
structing sewers may be voted in ex.
cess of it.
