DINNER STORIES.

At a bridge party Miss Antique was
coupled with young Jack Smith and

By and by, during a temporary lul

PRECEDENT YAM FORCED TO APP
Il PEAL TO D1LoMATs IN CHINA
FOR AID.

Picking, March AT 5 a. m. yes
terday fighting was in progress south
of this city. It was believed that the
foreign troops en- route to this city
from Tein Tsin had been attacked by
the mutineers, but this could not be
confirmed. The entire city was still in
tumult, but the proclamation of mar
tial law had aided in permitting the
Manchu troops of Yuan's body-guard
in getting control of the situation for
the time being.
Many former members of the Chi.
nese court have taken refuge in the
foreign legations. The legation guards
have been on duty all night, but so
far there has been no attack on the
foreigners. Confirmation of the re-
port that the French Roman Catholic
missionaries in Pao Ting Flu have all
been massacred caused the legation
stats to fear that the movement may
be directed against all of the foreign
ers at any moment.
Reports that Japanese troops are en-
route here are denied by the japanese
embassy.

VERY INTERESTING WRESTLING
MATCH WAS WITNESSED BY
AK LARGE AUDIENCE, ,es

A large attendance from the city
and big delegation from both towns
of Rock Lake and Crazy and the small
er towns between were here Friday
to see the biggest wrestling affair that
has been given in the city for some
time. The two matches that were ad-
vertised and in both events the exhi-
bition Of strength and skill was good.
Al Powers Of Grand Forks refere d
both matches.
The first bout was between McGur-
rem Of Crazy and Frank Lewis, the 10.
wa champion. The men weighed just.
before going into the match and it
was found that McGurren was but one
pound the heaviest. The first fall in
this match went to Lewis after twenty
minutes wrestling with body hold.
The next two succeeding falls wero
won by McGurren, the first in min.
utes with hammer lock and scis.
sors on the head. The last fall was
obtained in 9 minutes with q hammer
lock and body hold.
The principal match between Farmer
Jahns, the heavy Minnesota farmer,
and Dodge, the Rock Lake farmer, was
a good exhibition of wrestling, al
though Jahns showed through the en-
tire bout to be in better training. The
first fall went to Jahns in 10 minutes
and the second was also won by him in
seven and one half minutes.
Dodge came nearer handling the far
mer than anyone who has yet appeared
on the local mat with him. The first
round was full of vim and as long as
the wind lasted with the Rock Lake
man he played the defensive with his
opponent and several times when in
tight places slipped out with apparent
ease.
It is hoped that a match can be
made between Farmer Jahns and Or
deman of Minneapolis in the near fu-
ture and it is assured that if such q
match is arranged it will be one Of
the closest ever pulled off on the mat.

HOPED THAT THE LOCAL HIGH
SCHOOL WILL LAND AGRICUL-
TURAL DEPARTMENT.

The legislature of 1911 appropriated
$4,000 a year to the support of de-
partments of agriculture in five high
schools in the state, making $4,000 ap-
preparation for each school. The
schools to receive this appropriation
are to be appointed by the state high
school board Tuesday, March 5th. The
superintendent of the Devils Lake
school and the members of the school
board have been using every effort to
secure this appointment for the local
school. The Commercial club has al
so undertaken to help push the matter
through by circulating petition
among the taxpayers and citizens to
be presented at the meeting of the
high school board. Prof. Barnell has
been selected to appear before the
board in behalf of the high school and
President Mooers has been selected to
represent the Board of Education and
it is hoped that the efforts of all par
ties interested will be awarded in se-
curing the appointment.
The high school will receive valu.
able addition if it secures this appoint.
ment and it will serve to put the in
stitution in the front rank in North
Dakota, position which it has main
tanned under the able direction Of
Prof. Barnell. An agricultural depart.
ment in Devils Lake is essential if it
is anywhere in the state and those
who know feel confident that Devils
Lake will be honored.

With the aid of an adding machine
and several assistants, NJ. r. Mayer,
Nap. Lambert and Louis Mundt, judges
in charge of the final counting of votes
in The Worlds circulation campaign,
determined the prize winners Monday
afternoon. The counting of votes took
place in The World ONCE, and large
crowd Of interested spectators and can
didates were present. Every ballot
cast was carefully scrutinizcd by the
judges, and all persons present wcrs
convinced that eevry candidate receiv-
ed the full number of votes that had
been polled for her. The aggregate
vote cast in TIL World g campaign
was very large, running high in the
millions.
Hard Fought Battle.
Nip and tuck the candidates fougll.
for seven weeks, each vote aiding to
the interest of the campaign. At no
time from the casting of the first bal
lot was it possible to pick the winners,
so close was the battle. From time to
time many persons took guess at the
possible winners, but the opinion was
hardly expressed before another batch
of votes was recorded, and their choice
was found among the lower ones, and
thus it went throughout the whole
campaign, first one and then another
forging ahead, but it was just as the
manager of the campaign expected.
The reserve of the various candidates
played the most important part, and
was decided factor in determining
the winners.
Increasing Interest.
Slowly at first the votes began to
come in, then increased gradually for
a while, until finally, when the work
ers got warmed up, they rolled in in
such numbers that the totals soon
amounted to enormous figures. The
friends of the candidates desired to
see them win, and insisted on making
the fact public and voting for them
and getting their friends to do like
wise, and the smallest boy or girl was
just as powerful as their elders in
boosting for their favorite candidate.
More than one man stole an hour or
two from his Office during the cam
paign to make a personal canvass for

The winners may well feel proud Of
the fact that they have come out with
the deserving honor of having outrun
and outclassed workers who have them

would, under ordinary circumstances,
have had enough votes to win. The
honor attached to winning is consid-
