hope, however, that county option will

and in case it does the chances are
two to one that Clay county, in which
Moorshead is situated, will go dry

First Aid to the Injured.

Painting is a loss of consciousness
due to the diminution Of blood supply
to the brain. 1t occurs most frequent
ly In weak, sensitive women, but may
also occur to men as we'll. 1t usually
occurs In crowds, or In crowded halls,
theaters and churches, where the at
mosphere is close and the air foul.
falnting usually lasts only a few
minutes and the person i'm

fresh air; however. there are cases
Where 1t lasts much longer, some
times for an hour or more. The first

very simple. Take the person out

that the head hangs down, or take an
ordinary straight back chair, turn It
over so that the back forms an angle
with the floor and place the person

Effective Ground Squirrel
Eradication.

1t has been found that ground squir-
rels and prairie dogs can be eradica-
ted at a cost of 2 to 1 cents an acre.
These are the results secured by an in
vestigation carried on comparatively
by the North Dakota Experiment Sta
ton and the U. S. Biological Survey.
Oats was found to be the best grain
and strychnine the best poison. The
formula is a little complicated and it
should be made up by some one fami-
liar with making such preparations.
To secure lasting results the csmpaign
of eradication should be carried on
over at least a county. Mr.. Piper, of
the Biological Survey, found that
strychnine is taken up. more readily in
the cheek pouches than through the
stomach, and that only one-ifth as
much poison taken thus directly into
the circulation is required to kill. Ad.
vantage is taken of this fact by hav.
ing the poison made in a paste and
coated on the oats, which results in
the assimilation of the poison starting
in the cheek p uches.
The best time to start the campaign
of eradication is when the squirrels
are coming out of their winter quar-.
tiers.

poison, r given in Circular No. 4,

SIXTY THOUSAND
 GAR RMENT MAKERS IN STRIKE VOTE

New York, Aug. 2.-The climax of the deadlock between oO,00O workers on women's garments and the rnanufac- turers was near today with final bal lotting on the question of delegating to labor leaders the power to call a general strike tomorrow, if expedient. Twenty thousand workers, it was es- tinated, were voting today, the other 40, 900 having cast their ballots yester- day and Saturday.
 Most of the workers are women and girls Negotiations between workers and manufacturers have dragged on for more than three weeks, the me dium of adjustment being Mayor. Nit chePs council of conciliation.
 A week ago S settlement appeared to be in sight. Then there was pulp Hshed a statement attributed to labor leaders, saying that the workers had won a victory on the question of an employers right to discharge a work man. To this interpretation the man ufactuFers took exception, and another crisis was precipitated.
 pr. Felix AddIer, chairman of the council, called a meeting of his asso- ciates for today to find a way out of the difficulty, if possible. The original demands Of the workers were chiefly for a restoration of a previous wage scale and sanitary. conditions in the shops.
 It was said that the votes of the workers would be counted tonight. The result probably will not be known till tomorrow

 AND COIN GONE

Englewood,- N. J., Aug. 2-For 19 years A. Cornelius. Jr., has been cash fer of the Citizens National Bank here, and has. been one of the leading busi- ness men of the town. He is 8 years old. and has a wife and three chiI- dren, the oldest daughter being mar ried. There was, then, much SUIT prise when it was learned on Friday that he had disappeared, and when it became known that there was a shortage of about $2,0o0 in the banks funds,
 At the same time Miss Loretta Adel- gais, who had been MT. Cornelius sten nographer for about five years, but left a month ago to take a position with the Eng1ewood Board of Trade, also disappeared. The girls family are convinced that she has gone away with her former employer, and her mother said that the girl had resigned four or five times on account of the attentions which she said. Cornelius was paying to her, though she had been on Friendly terms with his fam fly.
 Every time she quit,'' said Mrs. Adelgais. who lives in. Koch elIe Park. | t'Mr. Cornelius drove out to our house | in his auto oIn obile and persuaded her | to come back to work. Once he even l brought his wife with him. Sc every time she went back. A month ago l she resigned to go to the Eng1ewood Board of Trade because it was said | the bank wanted a man stenog ographe CT.
 MT. Cornelius gave her a recommends l ton which obtained the new place for l her.
 1 Clinton H. Blake, president of the
 bank, admitted that the cashier had
 been missing since Wednesday night and that experts had discovered the | errors in the banks books. 'tThe l bank, however, said MT. Blake, 'is not affected at all. MT. Cornelius
 was bonded, of course, and the bank $ securities are kept in New York, where l where he had no access to them. We l have not put the matter in the hands l Of the police, for we still hope that i he will come to his senses his own
 accord. Now that he and the girl
 have both disappeared we are begin
 ming to hear stories of his attentions
 to her We had always found her a
 very efficient employe.
 Mrs. Cornelius and her younger | daughter, who have been staying al
 Greenwood Lake, were not aware ot l til yesterday afternoon, when his son
 an enploye of a, New York bank, came l out and told them about it.
 Miss Ade1gais went to her work as l usual on Wednesday, and teleph one6 home that night that she was going te 1 stay with a friend in Englewood. The | first news that her family received o1 1 her disappearance came on Friday

 Impressive as a reminder of other days which never will return, were the long horned Texas steers, and the big Buffalo which is practically ex- tinct in a wild state in this country.
 In fact every person in the parade, and there were more than 200, was a feature. The Indian costumes have been designed with such realism that a spectator felt instinctively that this was the west in all it's glory of the past. There were comic features, too.
