woMAN's CLUB HOUSE
Canvass Being Made For Subscrip-
tiOns For Stock.

tiOns For Stock.
A committee appointed by the
board of directors of The Woman s
Club House Association are making
canvass of the club members for
subscriptions for stock to make final
payment on the club house. The
committee consists of Miss Caroline
S. Woodruff, Chairman; Mrs. John
M. Allen, Miss Kate e. Wakefield,
Mrs. Fannie r. Ranney, and Miss
Margaret Robe. All members of the
club will be interviewed by this com
mittee during the campaign which
will close August first.
The property was purchased a lit
tie more than a year ago for SO, 80
Of this, 1920 has already been
paid, together with repairs and run
ming expenses to the amount of $3.50.
There remains to be collected dur
ing this canvass $3.50.
The Clubhouse Association is to
be heartily congratulated, not only
for the money that they have al
ready raised for this purpose but
for the excellent work that has been
accomplished during the year past.
One of the principal objects of the
club in securing a club house is to
afford, for the girls of our town, OPP
portunities which are furnished for
the boys in the Young Mems Chris
tian Association.
The following report will show
what gratifying response has been
given to the effort of the industrial
committee in establishing classes in
work for girls last winter. There
were more applicants than could be
accommodated, for the classes in
cooking, sewing, embroidery, social
entertainment and recreation. Over
80 were members of the classes.
That this department of the work in
the Woman's Club is receiving the
hearty approval of our citizens is
shown by the encouraging response
which the present canvass commit
tee is receiving. Many are saying,
81 would take stock in the Club
House if for no other reason than be-
cause of the good work the Club is
endeavoring to do for the girls of
our town."
Although the Club considers this
work of prime Importance, there are
other features yet to be developed as
the Club House project goes on to
success. For several months there
has been card in our papers invit-
ing women from out of town to
avail themselves Of the facilities for
rest and refreshment during their
shopping trips here. Young girls,
particularly, have found the Club

Detectives said the arrest Of the
woman was the key to the situation.
"he woman used crutches at times

DISPATCH|NG
BY TELEPHONE
Norlhern PacItlc ADDS 10 Il;
1eltpAsae Dkpi,ching
System

JAMESTOWN. Sept. "a The
Northern Pacific has recently placed
q large order with the Western Elec.
trwic company for equipment TO be
used in extending Its system OF dis.
patching trains by telephone. The
type OF equipment to be installed
makes use OF the Western Electric
telephone apparatus, which has be-.
come the standard FOR over ninety
per cent of the telephone.hsIng rail.
roads In the United States. The
.'selector' which is used for signal.
ing. Is an instrument. MS it's nama
implies, SO designed that when prop.
crly adjusted 1t viii respond only to
certain electrical signals or impulses
which are regulated by the train dis.
patcher. The latter can, therefore,
signal any one OF the way stations
at which these selectors are located
without signaling any of the others
on the same line. In addition to tho
way station equipment, there will be-
telephones to the number Of seven
teen installed in booths at sldlnss,
while each tarin will be provided
with portable telephone set which
can be Connected to the line at any
point, so that in case of emergency
the conductor can Immediately get
in touch with headquarters.
The present installation will cover
the Wilton division, extending from
jamestown to Wilton, North Dako
ia. o distance of approximately 1l5
miles. Six way stations will be fur.
nshed with selector sets. The dis:
patcher is to be located at James.
town. 7e .E.s, s@s1aa
The many advantages secured
from the use of the telephone in.
stead OF. the telegraph for the dis
patching of trains, alone were re.
sponsible for its adoption, states an
old raildoader. The telephone, in
the first place, is quicker. 1t has
been observed that the ring Of the
bell will insure prompt answer.
and for this purpose large, so-called
extension" bells are used, which
can be heard several hundred feet
away. In the four years that the
telephone has Dean used for dis
patching, not IL railroad accident has
been laid to Its door, 40 that 1t may
be said to be as safe, II not safer
than the telegraph. furthermore II
has been made possible to increase
the length Of a division handled by
one dispatcher by as much as so per
cent. II.
The telephone, making possible as
it does, direct personal communica-
ton by word OF month between the
dispatcher and the man under him,
has the effect Of warm. hearty
d.clasp every time it is used. A
spoken sentence, even when an or
der, is infinitely more inspiring and
impressive than a succession of cold
and formal dots and dashes, and it
is this feature as much as any other
which has made for the success Of
the telephone as an improver Of dis
coipline and incrweaser Of efficiency
on railroad systems.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Sept. 27.-After
being held at bay all night by a drug
crazed negro Louisville police today
rushed the backs barricade and cap
tured him before he could make fur
ther resistance.
The prisoner. Ed Jackson, was ar.
restc last night on a trivial charge.
lie escaped and took refuge in a
house in the negro quarters and be-
gan firing on pedestrians and street
cars. One of the policemen sent to
arrest him was dangerously shot. A
riot call was coundea, but when the
police and citizens reached Jackson's
retreat he had barricaded himself so
securely an directed such an effective
rifle fire at his pursuers that they
were Obliged to fight at long range.
For two hours they exchanged
shots with the black. then the firing
ceased and the police awaited the
coming of daylight. The rush on his
barricade took Jackson by surprise,
and he surrendered, although he was
we'll supplied with ammunition. When
the police gained an entrance to the
house they found two other negroes
with jackson. One of them who at
tempted to rush the police was shot
down, and he was badly wounded. 1t
is believed the two were in tho house
when Jackson took refuge there, and
that he compelled them to help him
in his fight.

twelve BUSHELS I.
every minute

DENHOFF, Sept. 27.-Some OF the
threshing reports brought in this fall
are astonishing and in fact really
test ones creduality. Some localities
consider that when oats run at the
rate of nine bushels per minute they
are going some. However we have
heard of oats running even better
than that, from several threshing ma
chine men in the vicinity OF Denhotf.
Sohn Wacker's machine while thresh-
ling oats at the Grand View farm
struck field that during two hour
continuous run averaged twenty-four
dumps OF weigher per minute. This
makes an average Of twelve bushels
per minute. 81,
Joseph Engel's machine, while
|threshing his own grain. averaged
eleven bushels per minute OF oats.
If anyone doubts the; syeracity Of
these. reports, just ask Tom Dunn
who timed the. Wacker machine while
lit was threshing for him on the
Grand View farm or ask Joseph En-

was not working right and just as he
closed the breech of the gun, the
shell exploded and the gun happened
to be pointed directly at one OF the
horses. The entire charge struck tho
horse in the flank and will put the
animal out of commission for at least

FENCES $40 ACRES
FOR Big hog Farm

VALLEY CITY, Sept. &c. J.
Lee Is making a big experiment in
diversified farming. He recently
fenced in an entire section of land
with wirewoven fence and turned in
100 hogs. The hogs have been doing
we'll on the pasture and have gained
IS to 20 pounds each. The outlook
for hog raising is SO encouraging that
Mr.. Lee will probably stock the big
field with several hundred hogs and
make that an important branch Of
his extensive farming interests.
