VILLA OF BELLE GABRIELLE.

Paris. Feb. 25.-Montmartre. after
losing many Of its historic landmarks,
is about to be deprived Of another old
souvenir. the villa or house Of the
Belle Gabrielle. the favorite Of Henry
". The memory of the Roi Gallant
should have been sufficient to saw
this historic cottage, dilapidated
though it is. but the march OF time
aad modern progress have no respect
for anything.
The little house. perched like a
castle on what seemed to be an in
accessible eminence. has been en-
croached upon year after year. 1t
centuries to complete the work.
but now the last hour has struck. Bit
by bit the little garden around it was
narrowed down. Lots were sold from
time to time. the fence was moved
back until there was no space left.
and the street came up to the tumb-
ling walls Of the antiquated villa.
The house itself is topping over,
the bricks have crumbled and fallen
into the narrow street, and the last
proprietor has sold his rights to new
corners. who have no sympathy for
the old romantic villa Of Gabrielle
distress. and who value the plot
only as a building site,

TOWN CHANGES
IT'S name Often
Pierce County Place Has
Hard Time Satisfying
AL Concerned.

Esmond. n. D.. Feb. 2s.-One Of
the new towns on the 500 In Pierce
county had more than the usual num-
Der OF N in the six months of its
short existence. At first it was called
lbach. pronounced E-bock,) after the
name Of the owner Of the land from
whom the townsite was bought. The
First State bank OF 1bach, vas duly
incorporated. Then the name was for
some reason changed ~ Egan, after
the big st. Paul tea merchant, who
has considerable land in that vicinity.
The name Of the bank was then
changed to First State bank of Egan.
When application was made for a
postottice objection was made to the
name Egan, and SO it was changed to
Balta. The name. of the bank was
then changed to Pierce county state
bank. SO another change Of name, as
far as the bank is concerned, is now
somewhat unlikely.
Balta is 10Y about TO obtain q post
office and regulaSE:;ail service, by way
OF Rugby. until %sassenger and mail
trains commence running on the new
line in April. In April it is expected
that p%ostoffices will be established in
all OF the new towns on the 500. be-
tween Drake and Fortville, Of which
there r sixteen in all. OF these
Pierce county ha. three, Orrin. Balta,
and Silva and Benson county has five
Fillmore. Baker, Harlow, Comstock
and Tilden.
Depots are now being erected in
each of the new towns. getting ready
Tor h passenger trains. Box car
depots and thrice.a-week freights
have served the travelling public since
the line opened last fall.

NORMAL
PROVIDED FOR
Mill Tax for Educational
Purposes Raised an Eighth
-Mayville Loses.
(By H. ID. Paulson.)

Bismarck, y. D., Feb. e5.-Liberal
improvement appropriations. as We'll
as provision for future maintenance,
have been secured by the northwest
era delegates to the assembly for the
Minot normal school. From the
house and senat appropriation OF
$4,000, $4,000 Of which is granted to
complete a fund of $50. 600 which will
be used in the construction of a girls
dormitory. and 100000 Of which will
be utilized for The Equipment Of the
work was begun last fall.
The mill tan feature. however, is
probably the most important. 1t al
ready has heen passed by both branch
es Of the assembly, and has been sign
ed by Governor Hanna. Under its
provisions the Mino, school will re-
ceive approximately $4,000 biennial
ly, OF $4,000 annually. the first bene-
fits being derived in asa.
Mayvillc Normal Loses s 5000. -
This feature is accomplished
through the raising Of the mill tax for
educational purposes 10 a mill and an
eighth. All Of the institutions with
the exception of the Mayvilie normal
school retain their old proportion Of
that tax. The Mayv:lle institution is
reduced .01 mill, and that is attached
TO the Minot normal share, which is
placed at .155 mills.
BY this switch. the mill tax income
for maintenance for the Mayville nor-
NAL school is reduced about 5000.
Crane Gets Salary.
AT the opening of tine session there
was an interesting point raised by the
state auditing board. which refused 70
allow President a. G. Crane his SAL
Any for services to date. Mr.. Crane
was employed ny the normal board of
control TO begin his work last fall, and
when the account for the ,hree-month
period was presented. the auditing
board contended that as there was. as
get, no normal school. that there was
no need Of a president, and it was
further conterded that the board Of
control had overstepped its powers in
employing a PRESIDENT
President Crane was here recently
n the matter was finally amicably
adjusted. and he continues his work as
executive agent Of the board in charge
OF the establishment Of the new Mi
not institution.

PARDON -LOUNSBERRY
This is the Request Of Number OF
jamestown Petitioners.

jamestown. X. D, Feb. ga. Pc
tition has been circulated here by
Dwight Donnelly for the pardon Of
Wells L%ounsherry, who was convicted
of train robbery in Kansas and sent
enced to a term of seven and one-half
years in the federal penitentiary at
Leavenworth. The petition states
that Lounsberry, beyond n question.
is mentally unbalanced, and was at
the time of committing the rash act,
the details Of which have been pub
lished previously.
There was no financial necessity
for his doing so, and had he been
criminally inclined his friends claim
that it would have been shown long
before. He vas a postal clerk on the
n. P. running west from jamestown.
and several of his associates noticed
during the last few years indications
that he was not in his right mind.
The petition has been literally signed
by many in Jamestown who were ac>
Quainted with Mr., Lounsberry.

WIFE NO. 1 GETS INSURANCE.

Washington, Feb. 25.-The advan-
tage Of being Wife No. l Vas demon
strated today in the supreme court
when Mrs. Annie Synder. first wife Of
Charles O.. Snyder. late Of Chatta-
nooga. Tenn, established her right to
Snyder's life insurance, which might
have gone to Wife No. 2, formerly
Miss Ida NJ. Forsyth Of Brooklyn,
n. Y.
Snyder had insured his life in a Sc
cret order. which had a bylaw pro-
viding that should the beneficiary of
a policy be divorced from the person
whose life was insured. the benefits
should be payable to the second wife.
il there were such.
The supreme court of Tennessee
upheld the first wife's claim on the
ground that an official Of the order in.
formed her she would reap the bene.
fits if she continued TO pay the premi-
ums after the divorce was granted.

Who Bring in Matches.
Berlin. Feb. 25.-Matches now are
engTossing the attention of the Ger
man customs officials along the
German-Dutch frontiers.
Despite the fact that the common
use Of matches has almost died out
in Germany. owing to the almos. uni
versal use Of he automatic benzine
lighter. the little remaining demand
has made smuggling most lucrative.
In fact, scarcely n matches are
imported through the regular chan
neis, for the raising Of the duty 100
per cent By the German government
has made the price prohibitive to the
frugal Teuton.
Of course. matches are still a ne.
cessity in houses. hotels and restau-
rants. and in supplying the trade or
ganized gangs Of s,nugglers have
built UP a profitable business, to the
great annoyance of the customs police
who have strengthened the guard
along the frontier line.
