COULD NOT THROW GARMENT
FROM THE FLYING BOAT

Hyman Roth, proprietor of the
Princess shop, made his proposed
fight in Captain Herrmann's flying
boat little after 200 o'clock Tues
day afternoon, but was unable to
carry out his plan of dropping from
the air craft his circulars and gar
ment from the stock of the Princess
shop because of the strong wind
which prevailed. AS feature of his
closing out SADIE Mr.. Roth had plan
ned to scatter circulars and throw
from the fying-boat a garment Of
some kind to the waiting crowd and
many persons assembled to see him
make the fight. 1t was an even
greater disappointment to Mr.. Roth
than to the waiting public to have to
forego the principal purpose of his
trip in the hydro-aeroplane. The avia-
tor kept the flying boat well out over
the water and made the fight south
ward, away from the watching crowd,
but gave his passenger all that was
coming to him in a way of a good
trip, as Mr.. Roth admitted.
In order to keep his word in regard
to the garment Mr.. Roth has arranged
to have it go to one of the purchasers
at the Princess shop sale.

Much In Brief Dream.

eminent of Englishmen who was die

an important work, and while so en-
gagged was overcome by sleep. He
dreamed of matters of great moment,
of diplomatic conferences, eXhausting
many days and weeks. Becoming
awake he chided his secretary for per-

he had not finished the last sentence
that had been dictated. Volumes have
been written crammod With such CA,
periences in infinite variety.

Horse Killed, Rig Demolished
and Boy and Girl Were
Severely Injured.

About 9 o'clock Monday even
ing an accident occurred in front of
the PlAtou hospital on Eighth street
south. Although quite painful for
some of the people concerned, the ac-
cident could have ended with much
more serious results. Mr.. Andrew
Benson, son of John Benson, living
four miles south of the city, was drlv.
ing into the city. He had team of
horses and a light sled. In the rear
seat were Rev. and Mrs. E. A. Martell.
When Mr. Benson, who came on the
road winding around the large hill,
reached the foot OF the large hill a
coaster came down the hill at a ter
rible speed with fire blazing about the
runners at times. The cOasting party
was laughing and shouting. Mr.. Ben
son stopped his team and allowed
them to go by. The occupants then
looked up the hill to see if another
coaster was coming 1t was dark up
the hill, no sound was heard but the
laughter and merriment Of the de-
parting sled and the sound of the
bells on the team, But having come
in on Eighth street and driven few
rods another coaster came dashing
down the hill at the same terrible
speed as the other one. 1t was not
noticed by the occupants o. the large
sled before it ran into the sled, caus-
ing the great mixup. There was a
terrible crash. The rear seat in which
Rev. and Mrs. Martell were seated
was thrown off backwards and it's
occupants were spilled out over and
beside the coasting party. There was
groaning on the part of one of the
coasting party. Mr.. Bensons team
was dashing down the street with a
partly demolished sled and Mr.. Ben
son dragging by the side. He slid
along about half block. The horses
then turned to the left, ran a ways,
turned and ran into tree. One horse
fell, received broken leg and had to
be killed. Mr.. Benson and Rev. and
Mrs. Martell escaped serious injury.
though badly shaken up and fright
ened. A young man of the coastins,
party, Anton Keene, suffered some
broken ribs and a young lady, Miss
Louise Ermangard, a broken nose
They were brought into DR.. Platou's
hospital and DR.. Pray was called to
give them medical attention. It is a
wonder that none were not more ser
iously injured.

The members of the w. C. T. U. were
hostesses to the members of the Scan
idnavian w. C. T. U. Friday after
noon at the hospitable home of Mrs.
Seymour Granger, on North Fifth
Avenue. There were between forty
five and fifty present, and it was a
very interesting and inspiring meet
ing. Much enthusiasm was manifest
ed over the new membership cam
paign, proposed by the state president,
rs. Elizabeth Preston Anderson. The
members took this up, and they at
once chose leaders. one side , to be
red, and the other to be blue. Mrs.
F. w. Heidel was appointed president
or captain on one side, and Mrs. Henry
was chosen as the captain for the
opposite side. They at once asked all
members to be on either side, and
having done this each member was to
get as many new members as possi-
bic, and therefore the campaign be-
gan at once, as there were a great
many outsiders present, and each visi-
tor was duly invited to join.
The winners, or the ones who get
the most members, will be banqueted
by the opposing side at some time in
the near future.
A report was given regarding the
basket of fruit and other good things
made up at Xmas time for the inmates
of the county Jail. The work of the
many different departments of the or
ganization were briefly mentioned,
and the work of each was given. Be-
fore the meeting adjourned, the hos

near FATAL ACCIDENT
TO C0ASTING PARTY
THE ASSOCIATED CHARITIES.

The executive board of the Asso-
ciated Charities met last evening TO
discuss the work thus far advanced.
Certainly this has proven to be a
great work and much-needed work.
Absolutely destitute families, and
families in far greater stress than
anyone ever realized it possible for
any of our townspeople to be, have
been cared for, and at least made
comfortable this winter. Friends have
kindly assisted the organization with
financial support, as well as respond
ing to the call for clothing, etc.
No one wants it said that anyone in
this city froze to death or starved to
death, and yet with the conditions ex-
listing everywhere this year, that very
thing might have happened in Valley
City had it not been for the watch
full care Of the social worker. One
family with six children was found
which had not even an ounce Of flour
in the house, nor had they had any
for "a hours. That family could not
have existed long without assistance.
Another family was found without
fuel of any kind and without the pos
sibilities of fuel such as furniture to
be burned, etc.
There is even one child this week
kept from school and from Sunday
school by the lack of shoes and trous.
ers. And yet it has been said eve
have no poor in our city" The social
worker invites anyone who doubts
conditions to join him on any of his
daily trips. He will be very glad TO
take anyone at any time.

time, was held at the M. E. church last

and Christmas Holly, Pointsettias and
roses also being profusely in the deco

each table being decorated with a
beautiful Towering plant. An excel
lent menu was served and there wa, ,
everything on the bill of fare that one
could wish for. Everything was coos.
ed to turn, and showed real training
along the lines of domestic science.
Folio wing the dinner, the remainder
of the evening was spent in the lee
ture room of the church, where the lA-
dies gave a very delightful program.
One interesting feature was ladies'
quart ette, Mrs. Acher also gave a
pleas ing selection, and the story of
Ruth" was given in pantomine. At
the close of the evening the ladies of
