ONLY CINDERELLA
IN west IN FARGO
FARGO ONLY CITY NORTHWEST
OF GRAND RAPIDS WHERE GIRL
HAS BEEN FOUND WITH FOOT
SMALL ENOUGH TO WEAR MISS
MAC MiLLAN's SLIPPER.

Fargo has the only Cinderella north
west of Grand Rapids, Mich. This is
a large claim but its truth was dem
onstrated in the Cinderella contest
which has been conducted by the de
LendreCie store in connection with the
appearance here of Miss Violet Mac
MILAN at the Orpheum. Miss Mac
MILAN is a native of Grand Rapids,
Mich, and is noted in the theatrical
profession for the smallness of her
feet. She allowed deLendrecie's to ex-
hibtt n of her slippers in their show
window and offer a prize of W. box
seats to the lady over Is years OF age
who was able to put them on. Humid
reds Of ladies tried and failed, and for
a time 1t appeared that Fargo was to
join the lists Of other cities in the
northwest which had been unable, to
provide a lady with a foot small
enough to wear the slipper.
Yesterday afternoon a young lady
called at the store and asked to try
on the slipper and it fitted her to per-
lection. She refused to give her name
and asked that the ticket be made
to bearer. A representative of The
Forum was put on the case and he took
an assignment to look at the feet of
every woman on the street in an eff
fort to find out who the Fargo Cinder-
ella was and learn her name. He took
his position near the postofice and so
assiduous was he in his pursuit that
he braved arrest for ogling. His pa
tience was rewarded at last as a lady
came out from the Pioneer Life build
ing and went toward Tenth street
north. The balance was easy and it
can be stated without fear of contra
diction that Miss Helen Givens, a stem
ographer for the Pioneer Life Insur-
ance Co., is the only Cinderella be-
tween Grand Rapids and the Red river
of the north.

GOVT. EMPLOYE
DIED IN FARGO
RALPH MCKENZIE, GOVERNMENT
EMPLoYE IN DEPARTMENT OF
JUSTICE, DIED or 5RIGHT's
DISEASE HERE LAST NIGHT
FUNERAL AT ANokA.

Ralph Mckenzie, who gave his adj
dress as Milwaukee, employed by the
United States government in the de-
partment of justice, passed away last
night in one of the local hospitals
from Bright's disease.
He was about SO years old, single,
and was well known in the govern
ment service as a man always con-
scientious and faithful to his duty.
The malady which carried him away
had reached it's last and worst stage,
wherein the victim sleeps much of
the time. This is common to Bright's
disease in it's worst forms, and the
sleep which affects the patient at
such a time is not at all akin to the
deadly South African and East indian
malady known rs sleeping sickness"
which is SO wildly described in Kip
ling's tales.
Several days ago the deceased was
in the city registered at the Gardner
hotel. While in the city he called on
some old friends, n then went to
Fort Ransom where his illness grew
worse. He was brought Immediately
to a Fargo hospital where he slept
much of the time until his death.
Sleeping about twenty-five hours of
the day no information could be learn
ed from him before becoming uncon-
scious.
It was learned from friends here in
the city, however, that his parents lie
buried in the cemetery at Anoka,
Mimi, where the deceased attended
school when a boy. The remains viii
be shipped there this evening for in
terment. Funeral services will be
held from the home of Judge Giddings
Of that place. .
The late Mr.. Mckenzie was a Ma
o identified with the lodge at Wash
ington. = At his death here the local
Blue lodge assumed charge. He was
a friend and classmate of w. L. Stock
we'll of this city at the University Of
Minnesota, where he was regarded as
one of the brightest members of his
class.

IN THE HOTEL LoBBIES

1t was while Col. Theodore Roose-
welt was in the city that this happen
ed. M. N. Hatcher was a strong
"bullmooser" and when Teddy came
to town he thought he would take his
little son down to shake hands with
the chief 'mooser'' of the country.
1t will be remembered that the adj
mireTs of the colonel and some that
weren't lined up and formed a process
sion and each grasped his hand and
shook it warmly and among them was
the little Hatcher boy, and this was
all right.
The youngster, filled with the i'm
portance of Teddy, dropped out Of
line after he had his first shake and
hen got into line again and had sew
eral grasps.
Finally MT. Roosevelt recognized
the boy as one he had shaken hands
with several times before and so he
said:
My dear young man, don't you
think o have shaken hands
enough"
"OR, that's all right" said the
youth. Colonel, I'll shake hands with
you as many times as you'll let me-"
he did.
Charles E.. Bachelor, president of
Tie rliSdt IdilOIidL DdIlht anu
raiser of some of the finest Jersey cat
tie that the northwest ever saw, be-
fore leaving for his home, after a
short stay at the Waldorf, remarked
that he hoped hat every farmer who
had real good sense would get busy
and start raising cattle. 81 do not
know of any one thing that will so
enhance the value of the farm said
he, "as the raising of cattle. OF course
II nm martial IN TprqnUC for the Ho4rxr
and / believe that any farmer can
raise enough cattle to pay him for his
trouble If he goes at it the right way.
We raise all kinds Of feed in the
state, much of which goes to waste,
and to my mind the way to prevent
this is to raise cattle. / would like to
see the time come when every farmer
on a 100 acre tract will have a fine
herd of cattle. Yes, i think hog rails
ing, too, is an excellent thing and I
am more than glad to see that the
North Dakota Better Farming assoc
citation is taking a big interest in that
phase of livestock. All helps and the
money is right in the hog, too, If you
go after it right"
Mr.. Bachelor came to the state
many years ago, and was an operator
in western Pennsylvania. When he
first landed in North Dakota he took
a position as telegraph operator for
one of the railroads; but he saw the
prospects that were everywhere pre-
sented for a wideawake young man
and being in that condition the most
of the time, he grasped the opportuni-
ty and now instead of pounding the
keys he is busily engaged in hand
ling money and brooding over the fact
that reciprocity didn't win in the end,
for he was a strong advocate of that
idea.
