FARGO NOT LIKE
50 YEARS Ago

One OF the prominent men who Is
attending the great Lutheran confer
ence in this city this week is George
o. johnson of the town OF Finley,
where he is one Of the best known
farmers In his vicinity. as well as being
a director of the First National bank.
He has a host OF friends in the city
and met many during his stay in Fargo.
This is by no a the first confer
ence Of the kind that Mr.. Johnson has
attended, for he was at the n in st.
Paul last year.
Il think there Is a much larger crowd
! n attendance here this veal than there
was in st. Paul last year. said he 70
The Forum last evening. II honestly
believe that this is the greatest relig-
ious gathering Of Norwegians that has
ever taken place on this continent and
equals many of the largest that were
ever held across the water. l am more
than pleased with the way Fargo is
handling the convention, and I know
that President Dahl Is also pleased, for
he has expressed himself 10 many
times.
Il came TO this section over thirty
years ago. ] can remember my first trip
to Fargo. While II was q good sized
town then, 1t wasn't at all anything
like the Fargo of today. Broadway
here was simply a mud road, and hone
estly, it wal no common thing at all
to see a buggy sticking in the mud
here and there, but all this is changed
and you have the prettfest and best
city in the northwest. 1t isn't every
city that can handle such a large crowd
Of strangers for a week or more so well
as Fargo is doing, and / am glad OF It"
Mr.. Johnson was being shown the
sights Of the city while he was here
A-l LII - e. -
the conference is concluded. He has
enjoyed himself very much.
The increase of warmth In the at
mosphere has been quite convincingly
accounted for.

Defeat of Wrights
Is of Wide Interest

Defeats of the Wright brothers in re-
cent court decisions in reference to pat
ent rights of the pioneer aeroplane in
ventors, is Of vital interest to more than
hundred monoplane and biplane
manufacturers in this and foreign
countries.
In aeronautical circles it is believed
that had the courts sustained the
Wrights in their contentious, an aerial
trust would virtually have been form
ed, for under the patent rulings as in
terpreted by the courts competition by
manufacturers of machines of the pres
ent type would be limited only to those
whose machines are so distinct and diff
ferent in structure as to escape the
patent rights of the Wrights.
The German patent office gave a blow
to the Wrights yesterday when it in
validated the basic feature of the Ger
man Wright patents in regard to the
simultaneous action of the rudder and
wing fleXing.
The Curtiss Aeroplane Company won
a victory last week over the Wrights
when 1t was decided that the Curtiss
biplane, which uses lateral side con-
trolls, did not infringe upon the rights
of the pioneer inventors.

WARMER WEATHER
LEADS TO ACTIVITY
AMONG BUILDERS
Three Firms Start Work on
Thirty-two Houses to Cost
$4,000.

The arrival of spring-like weather
this week has been taken advantage of
by the builders. Three builders alone
have started construction of houses to
cost over $4,000. exclusive of the cost
of the ground. Kennedy brothers. John
ii. Nolan, and Pumphrey Il Palmer
have taken out permits to build thirty
two houses in three sections of the city
at this total cost.
Kennedy Bros today started construc-
ton of thirteen two-story dwellings at
626-636 and 627 to 639 Lexington place
northeast, to cost $55, $50.
John II. Nolan today started to buiid
ten three-story dwellings at l217 to l23J
Columbia road northwest at a cost OF
$5h, 900. A. Fl. Sonneman is the architect.
Pumphrey & Palmer were issued a
permit to build nine two-story dwellings
at 23l5-233l Twentieth street northwest,
to cost $685. 900
L. J. Quill took out a permit to build
$2,OOO house at 2lO3 Nichols avenue
southeast
Mrs. Julia A. Chase will erect a two
story dwelling at 800 A street southeast.
to cost 5000.

Greater Amount of This
Style Construction Than
Ever Before.
NEW FEATURES ARE
ADDED TO HOMES
Diversity of Design, Economy In
Construction Gained BY
Some Builders.

Inc movement to build houses of the
detached variety, the kind which DR..
Harvey w. Wiley recently decried the
apsence OF, those with light and air
freely coming in on all sides, is going
on faster in Washington now than ever
before. Scarcely a suburb exist which
Is not building up largely with this type
of house.
In Sauls addition alone a score of
these houses are either now under con-
struction or have just received the fin-
ishing touches of the builder. The same
movement Is going on in Fourteenth
street terrace, Sixteenth street high
lands, Chevy Chase and its surround
ing territory, Massachusetts avenue ex-
tended and, in fact, in every locality
where ground has not reached prices
which have compelled the city house
marrow.
New Features to Houses.
Martin II. Bray +. H. Brinley, John
r. Haislip and other builders are now
engaged in building a number of
houses in saul's addition. which COM
bine features new even to the modern
detached houses of that locality.
A feature which is rapidly being de-
veloped is the combined solarium and
sleeping porch. This is seen in most
of the houses now being completed,
especially in those which face north,
permitting the porch in the back of the
house to get the full benefit of the sun.
These porches are built so as to open
from the rear bedrooms, are entirely
enclosed with glass in sashes which
can be removed in the spring and re-
placed with screens. The heating sys-
tenn extends to the porch. In the case
of one house which now is being built
| in Fourteenth street the inclosed porch
| is placed on the side of the house,
| which happens to face south.
Another new feature is pantry
some of the space ordinarily used for
| first-fioor back porch This pantry is
cut off from the heating system Of the
house. and affords cold storage.
Diversity in Design.
Diversity in design with economy of
IcCnstruction is gained by some builders
by erecting a number of houses from
the same set Of plans and specifications,
using, perhaps, different colors of paint.
| This is well illustrated bv five houses
now being finished by Mr.. Bray No
house is nearer than square from any
of the others which he is bui!Iing from
| the same plans.
A departure from the usual style of
architecture. too, Is used in these five
| houses. The roof and sides arc of
shingles. Across the front is a covered
porch which cXten'ls without a cover
| beyond the side of the house itself \
second story porch also is provided
Another disting gushing feature is large
brick chimney running up the side Of
the house to accommodate large open
| fireplace in the living rCCm.
The houses, for thc most part. are
| from seven to nine rooms in size,
though some of those built for owners
are larger and more elaborate. The
average house built for sale contains
eight rooms.

Newsboy Nabs Pair
Who Took His Papers

David April, thirteen years old, a

Saturday Evening Post, and rejoicing
over the fact that he is not $3.50 out Of

Posts stolen by Clarence Brown and

April, whose stand is at Eleventh and
G streets northwest, turned away from
his bag yesterday to find the two small
coIored boys making off with his pd-
pers. He caught both of Them and
turned them over to the officer, al
though he is but little larger than either
of the boys.
Yesterday, in the Juvenile Court, April
said that he wanted his papers, and as
Brown and Ward made restitution of
money and copies of the paper, he told
Judge De Lacy that he was satisfied
Both boys were placed on probation
although Ward is an old offender.

SENATORS WILL Be
LIBERAL IN AWARD
OF CASH TO OD|STR|CT
Framing of Appropriation
Bill Will Be Begun on
Tuesday. =

With the hearings before the Senate
appropriations subcommittee on the Dis
trict bill brought to a close, the expecta-
tion is that the District appropriation
measure will be brought before the
Senate at an early date.
The subcommittee will begin work on
framing the amended bill Tuesday morn
ing. II Is not expected the subcommit-
tee will be able to wind up its work in
time so that the bill can be reported to
the Senate next week, inasmuch as the
Senate is likely to adjourn over from
Thursday to Monday.
Liberal treatment of the District at
the haAds of the subcommittee. which
consists of Senators Gallinger, Smoot,
Curtis, Foster. and Smith, is assured.
The real question is how far the House
Is going to yield to the Senate whcu
the bill gets to conference.
The House is expected to be stubborn.
and there is not much question that
when the bill is finally shaped the Dis
trios will find that its appropriations
have been pretty badly trimmed in spite
of the best efforts of its friends in the
Senate.
In the course Of the hearings before
the subcommittee yesterday, DR.. w. o.
Owen, of Garfield Hospital, eXpressed
the view the Board of Charities has too
direct and personal interest in the dis
tribution Of clinic al material He dc-
cused ;he members of the board of serV-
ing the interests of particular institu-
uons in which they are interested. He
thought all the hospitals should have
wards open for all physicians in good
standing, and he cited Sibley Hospital
which is run on this plan and does moi
receive Government support, and is
highly successful.

Board of Charities. Genied that they
