on the part of the commission being
to permit a trial Of the rates to see
how they operate and to iron u lat
err such other discrimination as may
appear from time to time.
Further Business.
The railroad commission met again
this morning and attended to a large
amount Of routine business, the more
important of which was the ordering
of a wye, or physical connection at
Devils Lake between the 500 : and
Farmers railroads. This will enable
the state board Of control to get fuel
cheaper to the school for the deaf and
the Ignite mines at Wilton and vicini-
ty to get their product into a terri
tory from which they have hitherto
been barred by reason Of the long
have rates.
The commission decided to secure
as a regular employee of its office force
a competent examiner Of elevator
company books, the requests for such
examinations being numerous and in
some instances the need great. A
great deal Of consideration has been
given by the commission to the better
regulation Of the grain business and
this phase Of the commissions bust
ness was given earnest discussion to-
day. In fact the commission. leaves
for the southern part Of the state to-
morrow morning to investigate this
subject further. T. w.. -. .-E 81
The commission decided to call a
conference at Bismarck Feb. 10 for
the discussion of the new railroad
clearance law, inviting railroad off,
Gals, representatives of trainmen's or
CARNATIONS and all others interested
to be present. At that time a plan will
be formulated for carrying the law
into effect and for the commission
necessary inspection trip over every
mile Of track in the state, the law re-
curing a decision Of the commission
on the necessity of. removing build
ings, ETC., closer to the track than
stipulated by the law.
This afternoon the commission is
giving final consideration Of the testi-
mony in the excess baggage rate case
and hopes to render. a decision today.

DECISION OF THE
SUPREME COURT

In the supreme court, state Of North
Dakota. The Robertson Lumber Co.,
a corporation, plaintiff and appellant,
VS.. The city of Grand Forks, Hans
Anderson as county auditor of Grand
Forks county, N. D., and III. A. Shaw
as county treasurer Of said county,
defendants and respondents.
l.. Section 2801, r. G. 1905, requires
special assessments for improvements
to be levied in proportion to the bene-
fits conferred, and there lis no pro-
vision In the statute as to how such
benefits shall be measured Inc ascer-
tanned. Where this is the case and
the improvement is a public sewer, an
assessment according to the area may
be regarded as a just means Of APP
p%ortioning the special benefits con-
ferred.
2. A parcel of land derives a special
benefit from a sewer, whether main or
lateral, when it is SO situated that a
connection may be had with 1t and it
can be used as a. drain for such parcel.
1t Is the opportunity presented for
use, and not the actual or present
use, which determines the question of
special benefit.

GRIEF DRIVES
MOTHER INSANE

Grand Forks, N. D., Jan. 23.-Mrs.
Marie Jurgens, about 80 years OF age,
who has lived on Dakota avenue near
the outskirts Of this city for the past
eight years, was yesterday afternoon
examined by the Grand Forks county
insanity board, composed of Judge l..
X. Hassell, Atty. Ansel Wineman and
DR.. II. O'Keefe, and was committed to
the state insane asylum at jamestown,
N. D., ia which place she will probab-
ly be taxen today.
The unfortunate woman has been
i'll for about a month and has BEEN
under the care of the visiting nurse
and a doctor for the past two weeks.
Her trouble was caused by worry over
deaths Of two children during the past
two years, which, coupled with other
worries, caused her to lose her mind.
There are no other children and her
husband, who is employed in the city,
will remain here.
not been violent, it Is feared that she
may become SO at any time and At is
| believed that the care afforded at the
jamestown hospital would be better
and may aid in her recovering her
reason.
Smallpox az Asylum.
There has been a smallpox scare at
the state hospital Tor the insane for
the past month OF SO, and notice was
sent out by the officers in charge there
to the insanity boards throughout the
state to the effect that any patient.
who was to be sent there, must be
Ivaccinated at least twenty -four hours
before being received at that institu-
Ition for care. The hospital has been
Iovercrowded for the greater part OF
the last year, but according to word
racaivad Yesterday nv "Tuara uaG.all
they will be able to receive the patient,
Tt lis understood that the few mild
cases of smallpox there have turned
out with 10 fatalities, but the reuuire-
ment that all patients be vaccinated
for the disease before being sent to the
hospital, is still in effect as a precau-
ton and will probably be continued
as a safeguard for the large number of
Inmates at that place, at least for 4
reasonable length of time.

EXPERIMENT
IN RELIGION
FIRST CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH
DIVIDED INTO DISTRICTS TO
GET NEW ENTHUSIASM INTO
THE MID-WEEK SERVICES OF
THE CHURCH.

The pastor Of the First Congrega-
tional church of Fargo, DIR. A. r
Beard, has studied out a new plan for
the mid-week meetings which may
have interest for others than his own
people.
The parish is divided into four Sec
tons: The first is inclusive of all
tiers from A to G; the second from D
to H; the third from l to r, and the
fourth from S. to z.
Each section has a chairman and
secretary and responsible for one
meeting in each month.
There are five special topics from
which three are to be selected for each
meeting. The topics are:
Am important item of Congrega-
tional church news, whether from our
W country or from abroad.
2-Missionary information, home or
foreign.
3-Brief epitome of some recent
book. or magazine article.
4-Some significant event in church
life, whether Of our denomination or
another.
5-A notable achievement, whether
in music or art, in industry or dis
covery. in social settlement or uplift
work, or in any other line Of worthy
endeavor which helps the race on
wards or upwards.
Topics may be presented in the time
space of from three to ten minutes.
Space Is left on each programme for
scripture reading, prayer and song
service.
The purpose is to interest the entire
membership in the mid-week meeting,
and help to keep it in touch with all
phases Of Christ-like services. It be-
comes q. vehicle Of needed information
and of enlarged religious experience,
and must necessarily broaden the
christians horizon.
Already the attendance is largely
increased and the interest deepened.
The general public Is invited to these
meetings. 80

SAW MIRAGE AT FOssTON.
Passengers Claim They Saw n City
with Its Numerous Activities,

A strange phenomenon is reported
from Fosston. Passengers standing on
the Great Northern station platform
and looking out across the prairie are
reported to have seen a mirage on the
horizon about midnight Saturday night.
They saw a city with automobiles,
street cars, electric light and people
maving about, n even saw a street
car stop and people get on and off.
Everything appeared to be turned up
side down, as Is usually the case with
mirages. 1t is suggested that it may
have been either Duluth or Winnipeg
but how they came to be reflected in
the sky at midnight is an unsolved
mystery. Quite a number of people, the
names Of whom are given, insist that
they saw the mirage plainly. Such
sights are common in the desert, and
are supposed to be due to a reflection
Of some kind in the atmosphere.
