Park, ILL.,, whose affairs for five years
were linked w:th those of Frank
Lloyd Wright, q wealthy architect,
her neighbOr. Mrs. Bortwick and two
others were killed and three probably
fatally injured, and three were less
seriously hurt. An elaborate bunga.
lw built by Wright for Mrs. Cheney
was burned. The negro escaped, but
after searching parties began a hunt,
with bloodhounds, Julien Carlton,
Wright's chef, for the past four
months, accused of the crimes, sur
rendered. He crawled from the doors
Of a boiler, exhausted from the heat
He was hurried in an automobile to
the Iowa county jail, 18 miles away.
Carlton would not explain the crimes.
Mrs. Borthwick's 10-year-old daugh-

October 13 to "a inclusive have
been selected as the dates upon
which the fourth Annual North Da.
Ikota Exposition Is to be held in Bis
marck. AS usual 1t Is to be under
the personal supervision Of Hon. F.
C. Gilbreath, commissioner Of agri-
culture and labor.
Never since the first exposition
was held have the business men Of
Bismarck taken the interest In the
enterprise which they are taking this
season. The Commercial Club is
back Of the plan and is pushing It
vigorously. The ladies Of the city
are taking a hand and are pushing
the work diligently.
Bigger Than Ever.
The exposition is to be bigger and
better than ever. The exhibits are
to be more extensive, and naturally
through favorable conditions present,
more excellent. Several counties
have signed for space, while business
interests have taken the entire third
floor for exhibits.
L Prominent among the exhibits will
be that Of the Board Of Control,
which will occupy seven departments.
The exhibit OF the. board last year
was excellent, but will be eclipsed
this year. There will be exhibits
from state institutions under the jur-
g. - e-sS&
The parlor will be occupied by the
women for the exhibition Of fancy
work. This, however, will not be
adequate for all the women's exhibit
this year. and two booths have been
engaged by them for the display Of
canned goods and other culinary ex-
hibits.
Z Premium List Larger.
The premium list has been greatly
stimulated and increased, and there
will be splendid inducements in this
direction. Cash premiums in the
amount 81 5000 are offered. The
Pacific has prepared it's
list and signed up, and It Is expected
that other roads will do likewise. &
Entertainments.1
Extensive arrangements have been
made for entertainments. There will
be the regular vaudeville entertain
ments In the exposition auditorium,
which Is guaranteed to be up to the
usual standard Of such entertain
ments held at the exposition. These
entertainments have proven 9 pleas

past. This year will be no exception,
unless, possibly. 1t will be better. The
has arranged for the
very best going. There will be band
addresses and. lectures, q
number Of carnival shows and one
round Of pleasure inside
the exposition. while the Commercial
Club is arranging for outdoor sports
