WAR IS
DECLARED
TWO THOUSAND FIGHTING MEN
ORDERED TO THE FRONT AND
ENGAGE IN COMBAT WITH THE
ENEMY.

Amazing reproduction of the "Fal!
of Troy" will be depicted On the pic
ture screen at the Bismarck theatre
tonight only. The story is as fol-
lows:
Menelaus, king of Sparta, going to
join his soldiers, bids an affectionate
good bye to his wife, Helen, the most
beautiful of Greek women.
In his absence Paris, the son Of
Priam, king of Troy, comes on dip
lomatic mission to see Menelaus, and
falling a victim to Helen's dazzling
charms, devotes his time to impas-
siond wooing, in which he is assisted
by the Goddess Venus. He wins and
carries her away.
The flight of Helen is reported by a
servant at the palace, who lashes his
horses drawing the chariot into
frightful speed to reach his master.
Menelaus hastily marshals his army
and receives the pledge of his mobiles
to fight to the death. An immediate
march is ordered to the city of Troy.
Helen is being entertained in the
palace OF Troy by Paris. A solder
dashes up with the news of the at
lacking force in which 1000 fighting
men are seen.
The Greeks battle with indomitable
fury. Finally Menelaus, realizing the
futility of attempting to storm the
massive mounds of stone, plans a
ruse. A giant horse is built of wood,
inside of which are concealed a score
of Greek soldiers. This is left outside
the town and Menelaus withdraws his
army.
With exultant shouts the Trojans
take possession, and drag it to the
city. To permit its entrance through
the gates It is necessary to tear down
a portion of the wall.
The city sleeps, unmindful of the
fact that the Greeks are rushing
back with murderous hate in their
hearts.
Suddenly trap door in the wooden
horse opens, and a greek drops to the
horse opens and a Greek drops to the
ground. Simultaneously the Greek
army rushes into the city through the
gate.
The eyes of the awakening Trojans

consuming flames burn fierceIy,
higher and higher, casting
a lurid glare upon the awful scene of
In the palace Helen clings
tremblingly to Paris, who seeks in
vain for means of egress.
The intense heat disintegrates the
stone buildings, and they crumble to
the earth. Cropping and stumbling
through thes mokefilled corridors,
Paris, supporting Helen, makes his
way to the ground floor, and instant
ly a hundred swords seek his heart.
Menelaus utters sharp command,
staying every hand, and himself en-
cages Paris. The duel is spectacular.

ure emphasizes a fact often noted in
these dispatches, namely, that dis
tricts or communities which are desir.
GUS of securing recognition in annual
appropriation bills should present
their claims early in the session, so
that the respective committees of the
house and senate to which they are
referred may have an opportunity of
weighing their merits, of hearing the
statements of parties in interest, Of
scanning the always acurate reports
OF the United States army engineers,
and of noting the approval or disap.

Another thing. the consideration of
such important matters takes up con.
siderable time, weeks and often
months being given thereunto by
careful and painstaking national leg

into consideration by organizations or
individuals seeking congressional ap-
preparations for harbor or river i'm

The Washington Star: It Is very
doubtful whether there is any need
of change in the coinage system
which will give three-cent and half

demands for such coins, and if the

probably great majority would be
cast against the manufacture of coins

Rumor unfounded

Someone started a story yesterday
to the effect that the body of the
lete Edwin c. Johnson, drowned in
Heart river April S, had been found,
but the eager inquiry Of several in
terested citizens proved to rumor to
be unfounded. 1t was stated that two
hoboes, camping on the banks of the
river, had made the find, so MS be.
lieved that some of this same tribe
started the story of the finding. Al
though hope of recovery has been
almost given up, occasional searches
of the banks and bottom Of the Heart
near the scene of the tragedy are be.
ing made by interested parties.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO YOU?

DR.. H. M. Bracken, state health
commissioner of Minnesota, sounded
a decisive note in his lecture at the
commercial club Monday night when
he said that in North Dakota only
one quarter of one cent per capt.
ia was set aside for public health pur-
poses. In Minnesota conditions are
a very little bit better, between three
and four cents per capita being de-
voted to public health. Yet in Min
nesota $3.50 per capita is devoted to
education.
What is the use," asked the doctor
"of educating child to die before
it is able to do anything?"
The only answer we can make is
to stupidity wag our heads and parrot
like, reiterate: "Yes, what's the user
Oru legislators appropriate money
for glandered horses. The state vet
erinarians carefully examine cattle
for tuberculosis. If some ones pig
is sick, more than likely special
legislative committee would be ap-
pointed to investigate it's illness, the
cause and the method of preventing
the spread of the disease to other
pigs. But when we mention public
health, men throw back their heads
and guffaw. 1t is such joke to ask
for an adequate appropriation for car.
rying on public health work!
Doesn't it mean something to you,
Mr. Citizen, whether or not you are
given protection against disease?
You held up your hands in holy hor.
or when you read of the sinking of
the Titanic, the ocean-going behemoth
which collied with AN iceberg off
the Cape Race Banks, and carried
over 1000 souls to watery sepulclre.
o, if you could only have been there
with another ship and rescued the
survivors! But when you learn that
1000 people died in Minnesota during
1911 of tuOerculosis-and North Da-
kota's quota of deaths from the white
plague, was proportionately large
you proceed placidly on your way.
There is even an effort made to pre-
vent the rescuers from going to the
aid tuberculosis victims-efforts
made to prevent the appropriation OF
sufficient money to carry on the work
of the public health department..
Doesn't it mean something to you,
Mr.. Citizen, whether or not the lives
of your children and loved ones are
properly safe-guarded? You hire pc.
licemen to guard your property and
pocket-books; departments are en-
ployed to check the onslaughts of the
fire demon, but what personal efforts
do you put forth to secure police
ment to guard your health-i.e.
health officers?
Ignorance is no longer an excuse.
The advancement of scientific medi-
cal knowledge during recent years
has been remarkable, Preventable
diseases can be prevented, If the peo-
pie are interested enough to do their
share.
