THE TREND IN FRANCE

Bldou is, above all. impartial. In his eN-

harvest Of 1911 -I2-"LAnnee Dramattque'
published by Hachette. NJ. Bidou has
made a happy and useful innovation by
classifying the plays dealt with in groups
or genres" such as the classic, the ro-
mantle, works Of poetic fantasy, OF ms

and comedies Of morals and manners

drama OF passion, which I'm accompanying
has engendered two species of comedies

The following circular letter has just
been issued by Superintendent Watkins
of the North Dakota Enforca n,ent
League:
To the Friends Of Temperance:
The Kenyon Interstate commerce bill
intended to protect temperance territory
against illegal shipments of intoxicating
liquor is set for consideration by the
U. S. Senate Dec. 16. The call is out
for delegates from every state to come
to Washington Dec. 1915 to make a
strong plea for this bill and a strong
protest against the injustice Of the brew
cries forcing liquor INTO temperance
territory. The strong showing made in
March last when the legal side Of this
bill was argued mad a good Impression
on ongress and no doubt caused the
favorable report of the bill. The liquor
interests will be there in force and for
the temperance people to fail to show
interest will certainly kill the measure.
The brcweries consider this bill a body
blow and the beginning Of the end of
the whole traffic when temperance ter.
ritory can be protected from illega'
shipments and this assistance given to
law enforcement in dry" territory.
They will fight hard to defeat the mea-
sure and the temperance people must

TRUSTY PREVENTS
FIRE At The JAIL
Discovers Blaze and Runs Two
Blocks to Give Alarm When
Phone Is Out of Order.

Prompt action upon the part of a
trusty prevented serious fire at the
county Jail yesterday afternoon and a
possible explosion which, had it ma
terialized would have probably wreck
ed the huge smoke stack The pris-
oner upon discovering smoke in the
coal sheds ran a distance of two
blocks TO the police station to turn in
an alarm. The telephone at the Jail
refused TO work. The fire department
arrived on the scene in time to pre-
vent a serious outbreak, and but lit
tie damage was inflicted.
The blaze originated in the coal
storage sheds just north and adjoin.
ing the boiler room, and was due to
spontaneous combustion. The bins
were filed TO TO the top with soft coal,
the large amount on hand being due
TO the fact that the county loaded I'D

approximately three car loads were
stored in the compartments. Deputy
Sheriff George Siemon has been fear.
full of a fire. from this large amount
OF coal, and has been watching the
piles closely. Yesterday afternoon
about 4 o'clock he went TO the city
Jail and It was shortly after his depar
ture that the fire was discovered, by a
trusty who upon going out into the en-
closed court yard behind the Jail walls
saw smoke pouring out OF the store
room window. He Immediately rushed

SETS new RECORD
At RIFLE RANCE
Captain E. II. Dunavin of This
City Qualities as an Elk
pert Rifieman.

Besides qualifying as expert rifle
man on the Chicago range Sunday,
Captain Ed Dunavin of this city hung
up new record for the course, when
he completed it in just one hour and
20 minutes, and without preliminary
practice. Very seldom, if ever before,
has the course been completed in less
than half day. Dunavin hung up &c
points out of possible so, and as on
ly % are required, won the coveted
title of expert rifieman.
Two other Company A men, Gustaf-
son and Baldwin, also made the trip
and tried out, but were unable to
qualify. The course is an exceedingly
difficult one and in yesterdays trials,
but one man qualified out of a total of
SO who competed.
The work on the expert rifle range
consists of shooting at life-sized sill
houettes at 600, 500, 400, 900 and 200
yards, the figures both moving and
stationary.
Dunavin took no preliminary prac-
