pital and brought his body to the

METHoD|STS TO
RETAIN The BAN
Conference Rejects Plan TO Le-
ga|ize Amusements.

Minneapolis, May 19.-The prohibi-
tive ban on dancing, theater going,
card playing and such other muse
ments, and the penalty provided for
participation in them will remain in
the discipline of the Methodist Epis-
copal church. The general conference
adopted the majority report recon-
mending the retention of the ban by
a vote of 446 to 1853.
DR.. Mills offered an amendment
which was accepted by Chancellor Day
of Syracuse, providing that the intent
of the minority report should be at
tanned by simply placing an asterisk
opposite John Wesley's simple rule on
discipline and making it refer back to
paragraph 68, which in an advisory
way mentions his disapproval Of
amusement, but provides no penalty
for participation.

General conditions in North Da.

Noticeable features are the improved

age due to the early %freezeup of last
fall and to unusual fall Of rain this
spring, which resulted in less blowing
than usual. There will be a conse-
quent decrease in wheat acreage,
probably Is per cent to 80 per cent,
in the state. To offset this condition
there is a considerable increase In
the acreage of flax, barley, oats and
potatoes.
Among the better farming methods
being observed is that of greater care
in the selection of seed and the bene-
fit of this selection has already shown
itself in the uniform growth of the

able.

Two children were killed when a

Their five-months-old and two-year-
old daughters were the victims.
The mother, in trying to save her

burned herself and may die. The chill
dren were in the midst of the flames
when she rushed in and dragged them
out, but not until they had been so
badly burned that one died in a few
minutes, the other dying five hours
later.
The shock of the death of her chill
dren and the burns she received have
been responsible for Mrs. Wardlow's
critical condition and it is not be-
lieved she can recover.
