sEMI,ANNUAL REPORT OF AUDI
TORlUM.
Honorable Board of City Commits
%sioners,

Honorable Board or City COnLhls
s%ioners,
Bismarck. North Dakota.
Gentlemen:
We hand you herewith report of
auditorium manager and treasurer
covering operations for the six months
from December 31st, 1914, to June
3C!h, 1915. Attached to same you will
find twenty-one envelopes, II cover
ing each entertainment and in each
envelope is enclosed a statement Of
receipts and expenditures during that
period, also the original contract with
the show company and the original
settlement statement signed by the
manager for the show company and
our house treasurer. This constitutes
an accurate check on the receipts.
For each expenditure a voucher is
furnished, all of which are herewith
transmitted. n,
This committee has checked the
report carefully, as we'll as every item
of expenditure, and finds same cor
rect. In our estimation, the auditor
ium has been handled very economic
ally, and the showing of surplus for
the past six months, after paying all
expenses should be considered q sa :
i%sfactory one, especially in view of
the extraordinary expenditures for
equipment, repairs, changes in build
ing, etc. These charges consisted OF
placing asbestos covering on the
boiler, removing toilets from the
stage and placing them in upper dress
ing rooms, installation of stand pipes
and other changes in the way OF pro-
lection against fire, etc. These ex
penditures should not occur again, and
the close of this year should show a
reasonable surplus. 30 80 |r "
The policy of accepting only high
grade entertainment has been con-
tinued, thus assuring auditorium pat
rons a satisfactory standard of en-.
tertainment when they enter the
house. '. These entertainments have
been furnished at the same admission
fee that is charged for them in east
ern cities.
Attached hereto is a recapitulation
Of receipts and expenditures taken
from the treasurer's report, which we
would recommend be published in the
official paper.
Respectfully submitted,
r. C. BATTEY,
Chairman Auditorium Committee.

FEAR FOR SAFETY Of BOAT.

New Orleans, La, July 12.-Fears
for the safety Of the British steamer
Baron Napier, on which an identified
letter writer intimated to local news
roper that bombs were placed before
she sailed from here, were relieved
by wireless from the vessels captain,
saying a sarch of the vessel revealed
explosives. 10
No word was received from the
British steamer Howth Head, which
was included in the letter writer's
bomb warning. The Howth Head is
not q wireless vessel, but may have
been warned by a fcoastwise vessel
wnich intercepted the general warn
ing snt out tonight by the Arlington
station.

Raising.

Livestock Raising.
That North Dakota is we'll adapted
to the production OF all kinds OF live
stock kept upon the farm will be ap.
parent from what has been said. The
cold winters are no serious objection,
as, owing to the dry character OF the
| winter climate stock may be fattened
in winter in North Dakota with as
much success as in the corn belt,
The rainfall in the Red River val
ley is sometimes considered excessive,
but with proper underground drainage
this will prove q grea. blessing. ~Aln
the western portions of Dakota, espe-
cially west from the longitude OF the
Missouri river, the rainfall is short,
but in this entire area the rainfall Is
enough to produce crops any year pro-
vidlng the methods are faithfully fol-
lowed that apply 10 dry land condi-
lions.
Only Few Drawbacks.
North Dakota has some drawbacks.
Every country has. Prominent among
these are the absence Of timber to
provide lumber for buildings, the
winds of the prairie that blow during
much Of the year and the sudden
changes Of climate that characterize
all inland countries. The handicap
first mentioned is serious, but the in
PRODUCTION Of concrete will so far to
meet it. The winds may be checked
around the dwellings. for there is no
part OF North Dakota in which wind
breaks may not be successfully grown
The sudden change Of climate will be
much modified by the breaking up Of
the soil. Soil that is cultivated alb.
serbs more heat than other soil; it
gives off more heat at night. The Sc
verify of the frost may therefore be
expected to grow less, as the lands
are broken and brought under tillage.
Climate is Healthy.
The climate of North Dakota Is sim
gularly healthy for man and also for
beast. This Is a great asset, in fact
its Importance cannot be over esti-
mated. 1t will in the future produce
a class Of peole and of livestock that
will command a high place in the
struggle for supremacy.
North Dakota has some draw backs.
What state has not some OF these!
Among the drawbacks are, first, sud
den changes Of temperature; second,
severe spring frosts; and third, in
some instances visitations Of hail and
frost, but do not the advantages more
than offset 4these?.. There is no part
Of North Dakota In which the, farmers
may not successfully grow a grove for
the protection Of his dwelling. The
winds of the prairie may then blow,
but they will not disturb him within
the confines of that protection.

his confinement Woytash has been
showing signs of insanity which re-
suited in his being brought before the
commission.
Just what will be done with him
has not been fully decided at this
time, aas he is a resident of Illinois,
and it is a question whether he will
be sent to that state or placed in the
institution at Jamestown.

Languages of the World.

Strange as it may seem, there are
more than four thousand languages
spoken by mankind, while the num-
Der of dialects exceeds this. There
are more than sixty vocabularies in
Brazil and in Mexico the Nabua is
broken up into some seven hundred
dialects. There are hundreds in
Borneo, while in Australia there is no
classifying the complexities. Assum-
ing that so dialects ON the average
belong to each language, we have the
colossal total of $4,000 linguistic va
rietHs.

The first newspaper printed in the

type and it's Quaint account of events
in foreign countries, was a pamphlet
issued in 1921. It's title, "Corrant or
Nerves From Italie, Germanie, France
and Other Places" is as curious as
its contents. For many years it had
been supposed that no copy of the
Corrant was in existence but recently
copy of this interesting document
was scovered--EXchange.

Ancient KIno Terror.

Mithridates, king of Poptius, is rare
ly mentioned nowadays, but in the
year SO B. E. he was the terror of the
world. He killed his own family
slaughtered seven different kings ana
their courts, marched through Asia
and left everywhere trails of dead. He
invaded Greece and there slaughtered
nearly half a million human beings,
then he marched against Rome with
awful carnage. In his own army he
lost only $4,000 men, but he is thought
to have killed at least twenty times
that number of his enemies.
