PLANNING FOR
WORLDS SERIES
THIS IS FIFTH WORLDS SERIES
TO BE HELD IN PHILADELPHIA,
IN SIX YEARS

Philadelphia, Oct. 1.-Plans for the
worlds series, the fifth to be held in
Philadelphia in six years, were put in
operation yesterday.
With the winning Of the National
league championship at Boston We'd
nesday by the Philadelphia club, a
large number of carpenters began the
work of building extra boxes and
bleacher seats in National league park.
The plans call for the erection of
about 1900 seats which will increase
the capacity of the grounds to little
more than 10000.
Applications for tickets for the Sc
ries, which Began to flow into the
clubs offices some time ago, continue
to pour in by every mail, but nothing
will be done with them until after the
national commission meets in New
York on Saturday and fixes the date
for the beginning Of the big game.
Unless the commission rule otherwise,
the prices of tickets will be one to
five dollars. The bleacher seats will
be cne dollar, grand stand seats two
and three dollars and box seats five
dollars each. Purchasers will be
compelled to buy tickets for three
games, as was the custom in the
worlds series Of 1913 and 1914. 1t is
said the applications for seats already
exceed the capacity Of the park.
Arrangements are also under way
for the first of the inevitable banquets
that follow the winning of pennant.
Philadelphia supporters of the Phillies
have arranged to tender the team a
dinner on October 16. In addition the
players will be given warm welcome
when they arrive home from Boston.

LARGE CROWDS
AT STYLE SHOW
BRUEGGER STYLE SHOW AT.
TRACTS LARGE CROWDS TO
ORPHEUM THEATRE

The Bruegger Live Model Style
Show at the Orpheum last Wednesday
and Thursday was very much of sue
cess. The first day every seat was
taken and the second day the house
was packed to the doors.
The exhibit included a showing OF
Wooltex Coats and Suits and Mitchell
street and party dresses. Hats, made
up to suit the various dresses, were
furnished by the Cleary Hat Shop
and demonstrated the we'll earned
reputation of that popular store. An
unusually good showing was also
made of childrens wear. A number
of Williston ladies and children were
the models and needless to say car
ried the show through with honors.
Heretofore it has been stated that
WiIliston gave but scant attention to
Ladies Ready-to-wear goods and to
offset this and get in touch with the
outside territory was the chief object
of this, the second style show given
by the Bruegger Store. Mr.. Mitchell
Of Mitchell Brothers, Chicago, was
present and assisted in the work.
That the show was watched with
keen interest by business concerns
outside of Williston is evidenced by
the number of inqueries as to its sue
cess coming in from over the state.

RESCUED BOY
FROM SURE DEATH
BUFORD BOY IS SNATCHED FROM
VERY JAWS OF DEATH BY
HEROIC ACTION OF McNARY

By the prompt and heroic action Of
Lee McNary, little Jimmy Harp the
five year old son Of Mr.. and Mrs. John
w. Harp, who live near Westview,
was saved from certain death at Bu-
ford Monday evening. Mr.. Harp had
driven into town and had tied his
team near the Farmers Elevator while
attending to some business, leaving
the boy with the rig. The boy nat
urally wandered over near the depot
and was standing on the track in the
path of the fast approaching passen-
ger train watching another little boy
playing around box car. Lee Nc
Nary was standing on the platform
and just noticed the boy in time to
leap down crap him and get back out
of danger when the train thundered
by. The little boy was 80 unconscious
Of any danger that he was real indig--
nant at such rough treatment and
tried to break away from his res
cuer's grasp but fortunately for him
he vas unable TO DO 20.

NEW NOTE NOT ...
SATISFACTORY
GERMANY HOWEVER ASSURES
u. s. CITIZENS WILL NOT BE
ENDANGERED

Washington, Oct. 4.-Although
Germany's new note on the Arabic
case is not entirely satisfactory to the
United States, the situation is not
considered critical at this time. That
is stated on high official authority.
The view held by President Wilson
and state department officials on the
note handed to Secretary Lansing in
New York Saturday by Count Won
Bernstorff, German ambassador, ls
that it is not specific enough on points,
insisted on by Wilson.
These are the disavowal of the sink
ing and assurances that the act will
not be repeated and proper reparation.
A careful reading of the note deliv-
cred by the German ambassador has
convinced the administration officials
that negotiations on the question are
possible and that there still is reason
to hope Germany will, in the end, ac-
cede to the wishes of the United
States.
The note will not be answered form
ally Immediately, but Lansing, at a
conference later this week with the
German ambassador, will inform him
of the point the United States wants
cleared up.
It is understood that the note gives
satisfactory assurances that Amer!-
cans travelling on unarmed liners will
not be endangered by submarine at
tack in the future, but satisfactory
disavowal of the sinking of the Arabic
is not given. ... .

FOR A NATIONAL
CHILD LABOR LAW
CONNECTICUT MANUFACTURERS
FAVORS A l6-YEAR LIMIT
KEEP CHILD IN SCHOOL

1--WE need national law that will
keep all children in school until they
are 49," Mr.. D. H. Warner, one of the
largest manufacturers in Connecticut,
told representative of the National
Child Labor Committee the other day.
Mr.. Warner is the head Of the Warner
Bros. Corset Co. of Bridgeport who
recently put his 1000 employees on q,
48-hour week although the state law
permits him to operate 55 hours q
week.
;"The manufacturer who employs
children of ii or Is does not benefit
himself because children are not good
workers; he does not benefit the COM
munity because he harms the childs,
and it is the good of the community.
not the individual manufacturer, that
must be considered in this question OF
child labor.
l never employ children under 16
if l can get older workers because
consider the years between Ia and
16 the most impressionable ones OF a
child's life and know that the fac,
tory influence is bad one, no mat.
ter how careful the employer may. be.
Those years should be spent in school
and in the open, not in the factory
where physical, mental, moral and
financial growth is stunted. 1t we
must have men with college educa-
ton in the executive positions, it is
equally necessary to have a proper
tionate amount Of training throughout
the entire force find it extremely
difficult to get intelligent girls for re-
sponsible positions. have tried to
train them but their lack of education
makes it impossible for them to 60
beyond a certain point.
ut is true, of course, that poverty
makes it necessary for some children
to go to work before they are Is. I!
think it might be advisable to permit
exemptions to the 16-year limit for
such children who are over ID and are:
declared physically fit for work by a.
physician. Cases of actual poverty
are not very numerous, however.
Many children are sent to work be-
cause their parents are not poor but.
avaracious."

SEPARATOR RUNS
OVER YOUNG MAN
SOFT GROUND SAVES HIS'LIFE-
WAS SEVERELY CRUSHED,
AND BACK TORN

Park River, N. D., Oct. ALBERT
Bennington, 18 years old, son of Mr..
and Mrs. John Bennington, sustained
serious injuries when he fell under.
the wheel Of a moving separator. The
wheel passed over the small Of the
back, fracturing the left hip and tear
ing the ligaments supporting the
spinal column. While the extent Of
the injuries to his vital organs has not.
been developed, chances for ultimate
recovery appear to be favorable.
Albert's escape from fatal conse-
quences was miraculous and was due
largely to the soft condition of the
ground over which the separator was
travelling at the time. His body was
showed by the wheel sufficient dis
tance to bank up the dirt in front,
which eased the crushing pressure to
some extent as the wheel rolled of,
the depression in the ground being
about five inches. This undoubtedly
saved his life.
The accident happened on the farm
of George Bennington, when the
threshing rig was being moved to an
other field. Albert was separator man
on the rig, which was owned by the
Benningtons. He was oiling the ma
chine and at the time Of the accident
was walking backwards alongside,
when he stumbled and feel in front Of
the rear wheel, with his head and
shoulders in it's path. He endeavored
to pull himself clear but his coat had
caught on some projecting part and
was unable to do so. He was lying
on his face when the wheel caught
him. He was rendered speechless for
q short time and his absence was not
known until about ten minutes later,
when men had gone out in the field
for grain and heard his cries for
help.

ESTIMATES THAT PROPERTY
LOSS OF $12,000,000 HAS
BEEN DONE

New Orleans, Oct. 2.-The number
of known dead, reported dead; and
persons missing in Louisiana and Mis-
sissippi as a. result Of Wednesday
nights tropical hurricane is put ut
$40 in the total compiled here today
from reports from many points on the
gulf coast and in the interior.

number at least $50.
The known death list already stands
at 224, with 208 reported dead. In
addition, there are 1117 known miss
ing.
Throughout the storm-swept terri
tory the property damage is cnor-
NOUS, parties returning from the
Delta section reporting the destruc-
ton Of rich plantations, and wiping
out of crops.
Relief work is progressing rapidly,
due in great part to the quick recov-
cry made here and in the larger cities,
from the effects Of the hurricane.

MURDERED MAN
UNDER FENCE
TOWNER COUNTY HAS MURDER
MYSTERY-BODY SECRETED
UNDER SNOW FENCE

Cando, N. D., Oct. 1.-The body of
John Stefick,. a transient harvest hand,
was found under a snow fence near
Bisbee. The body was discovered on
the main highway of the 500, running
west from that village, by the section
foreman. He Immediately summoned
Sheriff Taylor, States Attorney
Kehoe and Coroner Harris from this
city to the scene and they removed
the body to the town hall at Bisbee.
DR.. A. w. Swenson Of Bisbee per-
formed an autopsy and found,a bullet
had entered the mans left eye, pass
ing through his brain and lodged be-
tween the skull and the scalp in the
back of his head. The man had prob
ably been dead forty-eight hours when
found: A coroner's jury was I'm I'M
Charles Houska and A. Adelbrooke,
and two witnesses summoned. The
Jury returned verdict of bullet
wound from gun in the hands OF
some unknown person. He was latter
identified as one who had worked on
Charles Keller's threshing rig and
was evidently of Polish extraction.
There appears to be absolutely no
clue to the murderer, and his motive
also remains a mystery. It apparent
" was not robbery, as $26.85 were
found in the mans clothes. Two
broken crates of booze and playing
cards were found strewn near the
scene but the sheriff reports that no
deductions can be made from this as
it is common sight at different places
along the railroad. Possibly the shot
may have been the outcome of a
gambling argument.
Nothing on the man gave any clue
to his home or the whereabouts OF
any relatives. The body was ordered
buried at Bisbee. -

WINNIPEG BARS
MAY BE CLOSED
SOCIAL SERVICE LEAGUE MAKES
DEMAND ON THE NORRIS
GOVERNMENT

Winnipeg, Man., Oct. 4.-The fight
to suspend an liquor licenses In Win
nipeg for the balance Of the fall and
winter, with war as the excuse for
such step, viii reach its climax either
today or tomorrow, when officers Of
the Manitoba Social Service council
will present their petition to officers
Of the ManitohA government.
The removal of liquor is beng
sought on seveEal pleas, one Of these
being the fact that between 5000 and
10000 Canadian soldiers will be billet
ed in Winnipeg during the entire win
ter season, and that the temptation to
drink should be removed from them.
A test of public opinion will come
late this week when a mass meeting
Of citizens will be held. At that time,
thorough discussion of the situation is
Anticipated, and the Social Service
league is hopeful Of securing endorse
ment for its movement.
The petition, prepared for presenta-
ton. to the Norris cabinet, proposes
the abolishment of the bars in the in
terests of economy and temperance,
declaring the wartime needs such that
they demand this action. -.
Should the league succeed in this
movement, it probably would mean
the closing of bars in Winnipeg for all
time, as the province will, next March,
vote on the question of general pro-
hibition. Success for that election
would then close all saloons immedi-
ately. :.
For the purpose of conducting their
campaign, Manitoba drys have started
raising fund of $4,000. They antlc-
ipate this will be sufficient to promote
the work. The campaign will be
made effective, especially on Wlnnl-
peg, by series of mass meetings that
will extend throughout the winter Pc
riod. ,,,
Work in the rural provinces will be
delayed till after Christmas.
