A FARGO BEAUTIFUL.

"A commission of sixty unsalaried
pubIic-spirited Bostonians are travel
ing in Europe studying municipal adj
ministration. The commission is div
ided into several sub divisions to in
vestigate different phases of foreign
municipal control. Beyond this the
aim Is to bring back knowledge
which shall not only make an eff
Gent Boston-but Boston beautiful.
In fact the latter is one of the chief
causes Of the trip.
Few wiser movements have been
started. Other municipalities win
watch for the homecoming of this
commission and eagerly listen to its
recommendations and suggestions
Their plans are likely to be widely
adopted elsewhere In the United
States.
The sentiment for cities beautiful
is rapidly increasing. Once Kansas
City could give other places in the
country cards and spades and then
win the championship belt as the ug-
Hest town in the country, Things
have changed.
Chicago was formerly constructed
in haphazard manner that made
the western metropolis a nightmare.
But now Chicago has become a city
beautiful. It's parks are unrivaled.
Its buildings are graceful and its
homes attractive.
Cities are growing wise-and as wis
dom tncreases--they are becoming
beautiful. Men who have little real
appreciation or knowledge of beauty
just plain business men-know that
beauty in city. a house, has a com
merciaI value.
Is Fargo keeping pace with the rest
of the country in this movement? Are
its citizens doing their share to make
Fargo beautiful? 1t has many pro-
nounced advantages. 1t has natural
parks, a river along which most at
tractive driveways could be cheaply
constructed. There are open places
in which little parks could be estab-
hshed, small monuments or fountains
placed at little cost Some Of the
harsher structures could be toned
down and their appearance modified
and improved at q slight cost Streets
and sidewalks could be more attract
lively maintained.
There has been some awakening in
Fargo. Why not get right down to
brass tacks and do something more
TO make Fargo attractive? The es-
adjustment OF the white way was a
move in the right direction. The cleo.
tion OF a park commissioner was
another big step. There are dozens
of other methods by which the city
can be greatly benefited.
Fargo has much undeveloped talent
In the ladies. II they were to organ
ize 6 big boosting movement for the
civic betterment and the beautifica-
ton of Fargo-there is no doubt what
ever but that 1t would be a success
They have the ability-if they only
possessed the requisite enthusiasm A
big brainy, public-spirited woman
VIII take up tho work some day-and
the Forum hopes it will be soon.

BELTS OR sUsPENpERs7

Is coatless man wearing a bel
more properly attired for general cir.
culation on hot day than coates.
man who is wearing suspenders7
In Chicago they say he is. The
question was brought to direct is
sue few days ago when a librarian
asked coatless men wearing suspend
ers to don their coats or leave the
library-while belted men who had
shed their coats were not disturbed
In the windy city high authorities
seem to agree that the belt has much
better social standing than suspenders
and is perfectly good substitute
for both coat and vest in hot weather.
suspenders, on the other hand, are
held to be decidedly undress.
This ruling makes it clear that the
more man has on in hot weather
the less he is prepared to take his
place in high society In other words,
the man wearing both a vest and sus-
penders is an improper person to shed
his coat in mixed company--whIle the
coatless man without vest is within
fashions decree-if narrow band OF
leather marks his waist line.
Fashion attempts to tell a man he
cannot support his pants by straps
over his shoulders-but must wear a.
strap about his waist. And further
more, he cannot even move in good
society II he doesn't call his pants
trousers.

ARREST OF ST. PETERSBURG
BANKER.
Charged With Fraud in Russia and
Manslaughter in Spain-Inter-
view of the Two Ambassadors.

| Some months ago, as our readers
may remember we referred in these
| columns to the great scandal caused
| in St. Petersburg, and in Russia
generally, by noter Banker who
| ahsconded, leaving deficit of over
five millions of robes.
The Russian Police sought for him
for ding time in vain for it seems
he had not eft the least trace of hsi
flight and the continued search over
Europe and America proved unavail-
ing.
Yesterday, however, a Spanish In
spector accompanied by two officers
from Scotland Yard and acting under
Instructions of the Spanish Ambas-
sador, who had previously interview
ed the Home Secretary arrested him
on his way from the Hotel where he
was laying, to the Steamship office
|! seems that it was his evident in
tention to take passage for New York
From information received by the
Ambassador, he had been in hiding
in Spain, where he lived with wo-
man and with his daughter A few
days before arriving in London he
had quarreled with another Russian,
who was mortally wounded by re-
volver shot during the scuffle, and
who only lived long enough to de-
nounce his assailant.
In an interview with the Russian
AM bassador, it seems that the name
he had been using in Spain, and
which he gave on being arrested was
not his real one, Monasseina being
simply an alibi, but after comparing
the prisoner with photographs in his
possession, the Russian Ambassador
recognized his ais Alexander Sadrows-
ky the criminal banker who eloped
with millions Of ruhles; he is a
native of st. Petersburg, widower
AZ years old, with an only daughter
that he left in Spain on escaping
from that country.
seina's or Alexander Sadrowsky |
were seized but al
though strictly searched nothing but |
personal effects were found in them, !
in spite of which, the Russian Am
bassador declares that prisoner ought !
70 have several million rubles some |
where.
The Russian and Spanish Ambas- |
sailors conferred yesterday evening |
as to whether the prisoner should |
be conveyed to Spain or to Russia, |
and after an interview with the Home |
Secretary, and in accordance with |
The extradition treaty of England, |
Russia and Spain, it was agreed that |
.he prisoner shau1d he e0nVeyad to |
Spain, to stand his trial for man |
slaughter, and that only after his |
rial can the Russian Government |
ask Spain, through displomatic chan
lels, for his extradition.
