ing his home, about four miles north
west of town by fire. The fire origin.
ated from a piece of the head Of

something. She noticed piece Of the
match fall upon the floor and put the
fire out supposing that was all. A few
minutes after she left the room the
smell of smoke pervaded the room
where the family were seated and
upon investigation the bedroom was
found to be full of smoke and fire. Mr.
Hager burst into the room and grab
bed their two year old son who was
sleeping there. He then directed his
efforts to putting the fire out and after
several minutes of hard work subdued

SUFFRAGE BILLS GET BIG BOOST.

Biesmarck, N. D., Feb. 11.-At a
meeting of the senate committee on
elections Tuesday night resolutions
were drafted recommending for pas
sage all three woman suffrage bills
which have been in the hands of that
committee for some time. The recon-
mendations will be reported to the
senate on Thursday afternoon as no
business will be transacted in the leg
islature tomorrow.
Senator Bronson's bill submitting
the woman. suffrage question to the
people two years hence, which failed
of passage when voted upon in the
senate some time ago, will be recon-
mended for passage.
Another bill to be recommended is
the constitutional amendment reQuir-
ing passage by two successive legisla-
lures before being submitted to a
popular vote.
The third, if passed by the 1egisla-
ture, will be voted upon at the general
election and two years later by the
women of the state before it becomes
a law.
There is strong probability that all
three bills will pass the legislature.

Wants C0nViCtS
To Make Sacks

Senator Marden of this district has
introduced bill in the legislature pro-
viding for the manufacture of sacks
at the state prison.
The object Of this bill is to utilize
the hemp, jute and fax fiber Of the
state and also control the market
price Of sacks.
Last year the price Of sacks jumped
from $3.50 to 1910 per hundred and
the farmers who must have sacks for
the shipment of potatoes and other
products, were forced to pay the ad-
vanced price.
Already the prison is manufacturing
binding twine and certain farm ma.
chinery, which it is selling to the
farmers at lower price than the har-
vester trust and making a handsome
profit to the state. The addition OF
sacks to the output OF the prison will
be greatly appreciated by the farmers.

Norton Orchestra
To Be Here Soon
'FINE MUSICAL ORGANIZATION
MAKES INITIAL BOOKING IN
THIS STATE,

Rev. A. Karr, manager of the Chau
tauqua reports that the Norton Chau
tauQua Orchestra and Band has been
booked to appear at the Valley City
Chautauqua this coming summer, July
Gil. They are booked through Iowa,
Nebraska. Minnesota, South Dakota.
Kansas. Missouri, Illinois, Indiana and
Michigan for the past seven years and
this engagement at Valley City is the
first one for North Dakota.
The Morton Chautauqua Orchestra
and Band was organized eight years
ago by William W. Norton to fill en-.
gagements through the middle west
during the summer months. It is
composed of ten college men who ap.
preciate the Chautauqua idea and
ideals.
Mr. Norton also manages the Wei.
lingtonians, another orchestra Of ten
men composed largely of North Dako-
ia boys, some local Grand Forks mu.
sicians. They are booked for next
summer for good season through
the middle western states.
The first organization is probably
the most versatile company upon the
Chautauqua platform, consisting Of a
cornet soloist, trombone soloist, bag
pipe soloist, violin soloist, vocal solo
ist, bone soloist, whistling soloist cello
soloist, baritone horn soloist, male
quartette, horn quartette and string
quartette. The orchestra is also
ten piece band. Their programs are
built with a view primarily toward
education, entertainment secondarily
and amusement only incidentally.
Valley City was fortunate to secure
the organization for six days as some
of the other North Dakota Chautau'
uuas have been unable to secure a
single date, so we'll booked is the
company. Valley City Chautauqua has
enlarged its scope and is booking bet
ter talent every year. They are offer
ing the best program this year than
has yet been planned.
