DR.. j. Semple, for twenty years in

gerry at Langdon, has moved to the
city and established Offices over the
Benno drug store. DR.. Semple is a
graduate of Trinity Medical College,
Of Toronto, Canada, and comes here
highly recommended as medical man
and as scholar of note. For years
the doctor has enjoyed considerable
local celebrity as a poet. His poems
cover a wide variety of subjects, show
ing that he has deep conception of
the serious things of life and the abil-
ity to portray in a lighter vein, its
humorous phases as we'll. We hope
to be privileged to publish some of the
doctors poems from time to time and
in another colmun will be found one
entitled ~ Wish Our Milkman KEEP

Is at Deaths Door

George S. LOTUS, manager of the
Equity Cooperative Exchange, and
one of the most conspicuous figures in
the history Of the grain business of
the northwest, is reported to be dying
from cancer of the bowels at St. Paul,
where he has been i'll since early in
August.
He submitted to an operation
Thursday and his physicians say that
there is little chance for his recovery.
Arrangements were made to inject
an anti-cancer serum as the last resort
for saving his life, but the following
day he was reported slightly better
and the serum was not used.
Mr.. Lotus first showed signs of his
sickness at the LOTUS Toilette
meeting at New Rockford on Aug. 4
The following day he accompanied La
Toilette to Minot and despite the ad-
vice of physicians, spoke for two
hours. This was his last appearance
in public. He returned to his home
at St. Paul the following day and has
been under the care of doctors since.
While in Minot he was feeling very
ill and consulted physicians. It is be-
lieved that his strenuous work in be-
half of the Equity brot on the trouble
from which he is now suffering. Loftus
is 43 years of age and powerful man

Small Blaze at
Leland Hotel

A small blaze occurred at the Leland
hotel Sunday night shortly after ten
o'clock when the floor Of the writing
room caught fire, presumably. from
the heat of the electric lights, close to
the ceiling of the dining room, immed-
ia atcly Glow.
While the fire itself did not do a
great deal of damage, several Of the
rooms were damaged by smoke and a
$500 rug was badly damaged.
The fire department was called out
and Chief O'Leary and his men ham
died the work in capable manner.
Several of the firemen were nearly ov-
ercome by the smoke and once it ap-
peared as tho the fire would get away
from them. Holes were cut in the
floor for a distance of thirty feet be-
fore the source Of the smoke was To-
Gated.
There was little excitement, altho
several of the male guests hurried
down the stairs in their pajamas.
The damage is estimated at about
$7OO.

SEVERAL BARRIERS
UNDER ARREST
STATE BOARD OF BARRIERS EX-
AMINERS HAS BEEN VERY AC-
TIVE - TONSORIAL ARTISTS
MUST TOE THE SCRATCH.

Thomas Nottingham of Dickinson,
secretary of the State Board of Bar
bers' Examiners, arrived in the city
Sunday and will remain for few
days checking up the local barber
shops. granting permits, and perform
ing the various other duties connect
ed with his office. Secretary Totting-
ham is making a tour Of the state by
auto this season, calling at the small
er towns generally, as the full board
holds regular annual examinations in
Minot, Bismarck, Fargo and Grand
Forks.
Mr. Nottingham reports that his ac-
tivities have resulted in the following
arrests thus far this trip: Frank
Moses, Kief, arrested for conducting
a shop without the proper certificate
of registration, fined $26.s0 Moses
is a student of the Moler barber COL
lege, which advertises to turn out full
fedged BARRIERS after taking a course
in their "colcge" upon the payment
of tidy sum to cover "the necessary
cost of materials, etc. Another con-
viction secured by Secretary Totting-
ham was in the case of Vincent Moe
of Drake. He had been warned to dis
continue, owing to the fact of his be-
ing unable to qualify, but kept right
on at work, thinking that the Board
would be negligent, as has been the
case many times in the past, but he
had mistaken idea Of the temper Of
the present board. Thos. Mike of Fill
more is being held by the authorities
at Minnewaukan for running a shop
without a license. He is another of
the barber "college" students. He is
due for a substantial fine.
Secretary Nottingham has already
travelled over 1900 miles of his trip
through the state, calling at every
town in which shop is located. The
board has certain rules by which a
barber may qualify and secure a per-
NIT pending the holding Of the regular
examination Notices of such exami-
nations are given ten days in advance
and all holders of permits in the ad-
joining district are required to be
present and take the examination,
which consists in answering number
of oral questions, writing out answers
to carefully prepared set of ques-
tions pertaining to the sanitary re-
quirements of their trade and in addi-
ton they are required TO snaVe ana
cut the hair of a subject in proper
and workmanlike manner.
The present board is doing excep-
tional work and are enforcing the
provisions of the law in an effective
manner. The membership Of the
board consists of the following gen.
tlemen: A. M. Britts, Linton, Presi-
dent; Thomas Nottingham, Dickinson,
Secretary; Leon skjod, Mandan,
Treasurer.
