GIVES HISTORY

CURATOR FISH OF NORTH DAko.
ia HISTORICAL SOCIETY GIVES
ACCURATE HISTORY OF GREAT
SEAL OF NORTH DAKOTA WORN
BY PEDAGoGuEs.

Today and tomorrow and Friday
over 1000 Of teachers and school
men will be wearing the great seal Of
the state and this badge of the N, D.
e. A. will be seen. at every turn. of the
street. The question of it's history
has been asked by dozens OF the teach
ers Of the state.
Curator H. c. Fish of the State His
torical society has looked this up for
The Forum and it is more than. pleas
ing to publish the data at this time.
The history of the great seal of the
state goes back over half a century.
In the first session of the Territorial
Legislature the House Journal for the
forty-fifth day, Wednesday,, April 80,
1862, has the following:
Mr.. Puett offered the following
resolutions:
Resolved, that a committee. of three
be appointed. by the chair to confer
with the committee appointed upon the
part Of the council, relative to a terri
torial seal. The chair appointed as
such committee Messrs. Waldron,
Donaldson and Pinney." -.
The council journal for this session
cannot be found but it may be inferred
that the committees from both houses
were busy preparing the great seal.
The second territorial legislature
convened Monday, Dec. l, 1852. On the
ninth day, Dec. 9, 1862, the Council
Journal records, "Mr. Shober introduce
ed council bill Nc. 4, an act to estab-
fish a seal for. the Territory of Da-
kota. Read first and second time, and
referred to, the committee on Terri
torial Affairs" >" = 'E%
On the tenth day, Wednesday,, Dec.
lO; 1867 the council bill No. 4 was
taken up and read for the third time
which resulted in Z ayes and / nay
The bill passed and the title agreed to.
This council bill No. 4 passed the
house Dec. 10, 1852, with no opposi-
ton and was returned to the council
chambers the twentieth. 1t was sign
ed by the governor on Jan. 3, 1868.
The bill Is as follows:
Section L. That, the following des-
cribed seal is hereby declared to be
and is hereby constituted the great
seal Of Dakota territory, to, wit: A
tree in the open field, the trunk OF
which Is surrounded by a bundle OF
rods, bound with three bands on the

HENEOT LEWIS RECITAL
Liberal Applause Indicated Triumph
for Pianist Who Appeared in
Artist Recital Last Night.

There were only a few unoccupied
seats in the Stone music hall last
night, which was the occasion Of the
appearance of Heniot Levy, pianist,
who appeared as the initial number
Of this years artists course to be
given by the Dakota Conservatory of
Music. The player was we'll received
by the large number of concert-goers
present. Beginning with the first
number, a composition by Bach-Bu-
soni, the large audience abandoned it
self to lou ~outbursts of applause at
the conclusion of every number play
ed and where there were more than
one movement the admirers of the
slayer could not resist disclosing their
approval at the finish Of a movement.
Mr.. Levy made many fast friends
with his Interpretation Of three o
mems from Renaissance, by Godow-
sky, especially the last one. In the
Chopin number, about the middle Of
the programme, the players utiliza-
ton Of tone color was particularly
noticeable in each of the four move
ments which he played incomparably
However, the audience seemed to con
slider the playing of Schumann's Car
nival Op. 9 as the gen of the evening.
Experienced critics say that this
composition has to be u~nhappily &C
cepted by. the typical concert-goer as
piano music only. Probably only a
few in the audience last night knew
much about Eusebius, Florestan, Els
trella and many of the dancing letters
The number was greatly enjoyed
throughout, particularly the display
of the pianist's ea~rnestness. Mr.. Levy
closed his programme with a splendid
rendition of an arrangement of thu
Tannhauser overture. by Wagner
Liszt.
The assisting artist was Miss Sey-
mour, violinist, a member of the on
servatory faculty, who shared the
honors of the evening in her playing
Of two concerto movements, by Men

sitions, all to accomplishments played

NECESSITY FOR
new SCHOOL
ENROLMENT IN NoRTHSlDE
= SCHOOLS TAXING THE CAPACl-|
TY OF PRESENT BUILDINGS
NO Definite PLANS YET FOR
NEW BUILDING.

The school board, at it's last meet
ing, discussed the matter of a new
school building for the north side.
Nothing definite can be done in the
matter this year, but the necessity for
added school accommodations, was
clearly shown by the monthly report.
The three schools, the Longfellow,
their capacity at the present time, as
is shown by the following figures,
The total of the Longfellow school
at present is 346. The seating capa-
city Of the school is 344.
The enrolment of the Roosevelt
school Is S14. The seating capacity
The enrolment Of the Lincoln
school is 1896. The seating capacity Is
388, seven less than the enrolment.
The increased attendance in all the
schools Of the city this rear over last
year is almost phenomenal, and pu-
pills are still coming. Seven new pu-
pills were enrolled on Monday Of this
week., and seven more yesterday.
Allowing for an increase Of 10 per
cent in the sChool enrolment each
year the point will soon be reached
where the increase in the number Of
pupils in the city schools each year
will be in the neighborhood of 300.
This will practically necessitate the
erection of a new eight-room school
building each year.
Nothing better indicates the sub
stantial nature of a city's growth than
the, number of it's schools and the
school enrolment. And no city in the
state has shown more rapid progress
in it's school system than Fargo.
