MAnDAN FIRE THURSDAY
DAMAGE OF NEARLY $50, 900

Fire which broke out in the X. P.
and Masonic hall at Mandan on Thurs
day morning caused a loss of nearly
$50. 900 before it was extinguished. 1t
is supposed that the fire was started
from lighted cigar left in the hall
last evening as there had been a meet
ing of the Machinists Union there.
The losses with the insurance are as
follows as nearly as could be learned !:
Romeo block, loss $40, 900, insurance,
s.. 600.
Lang Grocery Co., loss s6. 900, insur-
ance Sc. 600.
Topic vaudeville theatre. loss, 81. 900,
insurance. $500.
Masons and X. P. lodges. loss 81, 600,
insurance unknown.
In the Topic theatre the picture ma
chine and the piano were saved. There
was high wind blowing at the time
of..the fire and very strenuous efforts were
necessary on the part Of the fire depart
ment to prevent other flres starting and
at times il was thought the entire
part of town on the windward side Of
the fire would be burned.

committee REPORTS
ON Y. N. G. A. Matter

The Y. M. C. A. committee appointed
to confer with the armory board, with
reference to the rental Of the armory for
Y. M. C. A. purposes, and to investigate
and report on the feasibility of estab-
fishing a Y. M. C. A. in this city, have
held several meetings and on The 10th
inst, met with State Secretary A. L.
Miller, who was in the city on the
interests of that institution. 1t was the
unanimous opinion of the members OF
the committee attending the meeting,
that the conditions obtaining at the
present time, were such that the move
ment ought to be postponed for the pres
ent and again taken up at some future
time, when conditions were more
favorable, and in this decision Mr..
Miller concurred.
It was also the opinion of the COM
mittee that it would be useless at this
time to call another meeting of the citi-
zens, to act upon this report, but, that
if meeting is called, the committee
will be glad to attend and give to the
meeting the results of their investiga-
tions.

YOUNG MEN, SUPPER
WAS WELL ATTENDED

The supper given last week by twenty
single men at the Congregational church
parlors was we'll patronized and was
very nicely conducted. There was not a
hitch in the entire program and the
young men seemed to enjoy serving the
people with good meal. If the married
men do as we'll in serving their supper.
they will have to work lively. Of course
the young men do not tell how much
they made and will not until the mar
ried men have carried out their part of
the program. when it is likely that the
checks for net proceeds will he placed in
sealed envelopes and turned over to the
treasurer. May 25th has been suggested
as good date for giving the next sup
per, but the committee has not definitely
fixed upon the time and will not until
general meeting of the members is held.

OUR STATE TWlnE PLANT
PAYS WELL ON INVESTMENT

Warden F. O. Hellstrom issued
warrant on Monday to retire $94. 900 of
four per cent twine plant bonds, which
were issued May 1, 1901, and due this
month. The total amount paid was
SOS, 253. "a, $1.253.34 of this being for
interest. These bends were held by the
state of North Dakota in the common
school fund.- Il
The fact that these bonds were paid
entirely out of the earnings of the twine
plant demonstrates that the people who
instigated the movement in starting
the plant had the right idea. The plant
has made m0Rey even during the hard
years. and has been added to and i'm
proved until it is one of the most COM
|plete plants insthe entire country.
It is no doubt gratifying to the present
board to be able to return these bonds at
this time, as 1t will be one of the last
important official acts, inasmuch as the
Legislature recently passed a bill pro-
viding for board Of control to take
charge of certain institutions. including
the penitentiary.
The Dickinson press. (Dickinson, Stark County, D.T. [i.e. N.D.]) 1883-1927, 1911-05-13

and those results were made possible
through the principle upon which our
Chamber of Commerce has been built
from a handful of boosters back in the
early 90's when there was but town of
a few thousand people, into an organi-
zation that represents 1,100 members of
the business and professional world of
Oklahoma City in metropolis with
population of now almost 10000. This
is what we call the centralized plan
whereby practically every phase of COM
mercial organization in this city is
embodied in the one inclusive Chamber
of Commerce.
Why can't we do something like this?
1t is possible if we would all divert q
little more time to the interest of our
club. 1t is hard to say just what the
results would be, but I believe they
would be great.
Can't we count on you to take little
more interest in the future?

LEAVES CHURCH JUNE 1sT
FOR ENFORCEMENT LEAGUE

2 The North Dakota Enforcement League
has asked Rev. F. L. Watkins of the St.
Paul's Methodist Episcopal church of
Dickinson to resign his pastorate and
take up active league work the first of
June. When Mr.. Watkins was elected
General field man in the spring it was
not expected that he would devote his
time to enforcement work until fall.
Mr.. Watkins does not leave the
ministry but retains his conference con-
nection so that at any time he should
sever his connections with league work.
he could take up regular church work
again. He has been in the ministry
sixteen years, three and one half years
in North Dakota, one year at Washburn
and the balance of the time in Dick
inson. The most Of Mr.. Watkins church
work was in Iowa, where he also had
experience in law enforcement similar
to what his duties will require in this
state.
Mr.. Watkins will make headquarters
in Dickinson and until regular supply
is appointed by the bishop for the
church here, he will remain in the
parsonage.
The Enforcement League will send
Mr.. Watkins to Minneapolis and Ohio
points the first of June to study anti
saloon league work, and it is planned,
Mr.. Watkins says. to do considerable
work in the western part of the state
during the summer.
