 Bendix walked thoughtful1y into the little back room, the baroness of which, kept to it's former crudeness by the wish of the boss, was in strange con trast to the elaborately miFrored and mahogany carved Occfdent. Here, at an extremely plain round table, he found the huge and impassive SIedge gazing moodily out-the dusty window, while Frank Marley, with a half emp tied whisky glass in his hand, sat re garding him with a puzzled expression. Marley turned with relief when he saw " Bendix.

 Bendix looked at him moment in Rggrteved wonder.

Haskins & Schwartz received 40 acres
of the new crop from growers at this
point Saturday for shipment to James,

The first receiving by the P. Lorillard
Co. of Vernon county tobacco is said to
have averaged the growers about $275
per acre. We might also add that such
figures are mighty satisfying.
H. S. McGiffin of Sparta, with the
American Cigar Co., was visitor in
this market Wednesday. He has been
receiving the new crop at London and
Deerfield the fore part of the week.
The Sparta warehouse opened Monday
with Is hands.
The p Lorillard Co. received about
$50 acres of the new crop in Edgerton
Monday and Tuesday, which yielded
close to 1900 pounds to the acre, which
indicates that the crop is weighing in

A Midnight Fire.

A group of stables in the rear of the
Mawhinney property on Swift street
were discovered to be on fire by the
night baker in the Gaarder bakery at
just about IL o'clock Tuesday night
An alarm was sent in but before any
one awake at that time could reach the
scene the entire row of buildings was
enveloped in flames. Fortunately
there was no wind blowing and the
near by roofs were covered with snow
SO all the department need to do on
their arrival was to keep the fire with
in the connecting buildings. Two lines
of hose were laid which abundantly
protected the buildings across the
Front street alley, the rear of the
Mawhinney block and The Carlton no.
tel, none of which were over 100 feet
distant from the fire.
These stables, which have long been
considered fire trap and outlawed as
far as insurance, were occupied by
Lyon & Biesman and Robinsky,-a junk
dealer. The former had a delivery
horse, wagons, robes, about Is chickens
and quantity of hides, ETC., locked in
barn and those first to arrive were un-
able to save any of this property.
Their loss will hardly exceed $500 all
told, with no insurance. Another por
ton of the building was used by Max
Swerdloff for storage, and the junk
dealer with about $50 worth of old
paper The origin of the fire is still a
mystery, but by many believed to be
incendiary origin. When first discov-
cred the blaze was we'll advanced
through the row of buildings. A few
moments before the night marshal had
passed through the alley and saw no
evidence of fire. The damage to the
adjoining property is confined largely
to broked glass in the windows of the
Mawhinney block.
After the firemen had fought the
flames to standstill for an hour or
more, the Carlton hotel served the half
frozen firemen hot coffee and lunches.

Woman Drug Thief Arrested.


. A woman who is believed to be ad
dicted to the use of narcotics who has
been Systematically raiding drug stores
insthis section of the state for several
weeks was placed under arrest Satur-
day at Stoughton and Dean Swift and
George Dallman were called upon to
identify the prisoner as the one who
worked her game in Edgerton few
weeks ago.
About month ago we'll dressed,
middle aged lady appeared at the Swift
drug store in this city and on the pre-
tence of waiting for lady from the
country to call for her, spent portion
of the morning at the store. When
Mr. Swift went to dinner the lady was
still in the store, and in some manner
tore her skirt on one of the tables. She
asked permission to retire to the back
room to arrange her clothing. Shortly
after she disappeared, going to the
store of the Dallman Drug Co., where
she caught her skirt in the door as che
was closing it. Here she also asked
permission to retire to the back room
near the prescription case to arrange
her clothing again. The next day these
two druggists happened into a local
barber shop at the same time and COM
pared notes and came to the conclusion
that the lady was evidently shop
litter. Upon checking up it was found
that bottle containing about So worth
of morphine was missing from the Dali
man Drug Co. store and that nothing
was missing from the Swift store, as
Mr. Swift had taken the precaution of
locking his morphine in the safe. The
surrounding towns were Immediately
notified to be on the lookout for this
lady.
Mr.. Swift also sent description of
her scheme to druggist publication
which put the trade on the lookout for
the swindler. Last week she visited
Lodi but the drug stores were wise to
her performance. Saturday she appear
ed at Stoughton and secured a prescrip-
ton from local doctor, claiming she
wanted the morphine for lady in the
country who was suffering with cancer
of the stomach. Upon presenting the
prescription to the Sheldrop Drug Co.
she was suspected by Mr.. Sheldrop as
being the lady who made the former
call, and was told that the prescription
could not be filled until the noon train
arrived. She then decided that she
could not wait and proceeded to another
drug store. Immediately after leaving
the Sheldrup drug store, Mr.. Sheldrop
notified the other stores in the city and
also notified the police and swore out a
warrant for petit larceny. When the
lady was arraigned in Justice Nichols
court she at first denied her guilt and
refused to discuss the matter until she
was furnished with an attorney to rep
resent her. Upon consulting with an
attorney furnished her by the court,
she changed her plea to guilty and was
fined $1OO, and in case she does not pay
the fine will receive six months in the
Dane county Jail. She gave the name
of Mrs. Henderson of Watertown and
admitted that she had made practice
of going from town to town obtaining
narcotics in this fashion

number Of the people for advancement.
Several reasons are assigned for
the seemingly sudden arousal of India
from the lethargy which has acted as
a damper to progress industrially thus
far The principal causes named are
these:
India today is more prosperous than
ever before in it's history. and money
is plentiful. This is due largely to the
fact that the last four monsoon sea-
sons. upon which the all important
crops depend, have been good
The war also has played an impor-
tant part in this change of feeling
For one thing 1t has taught the people
of India the importance of the world
outside their own country. The vast
bulk of the population is illiterate and
many for the first time arc beginning
to get an idea Of geography. to learn
that India is not the hub of the uni

India Is at Threshold

(By Associated Press.)

Smla, India, Dec. 6.-India Is on
the threshold OF new industrial era,
according to the opinion expressed
generally by Indian and British bust
ness men and officials. This country,
with it's vast natural resources, is now
in a comparatively undeveloped state
industrially, but a great wave Of sent

to insure immediate and substantial

MANAGER
FOR CITY
IS NEED
City Commission Realizes
Necessity for Man on
Job ALI the Time :
CHARTER CHANGE NEEDED
Commissioners Blakemore
and Stern Both Favor
the Idea

The need 'of a city manager for
Fargo came up at a meeting of the
city commission this morning when
considerable argument was INDUCED
in by members of the commission and
municipal officers over the system OF
allowing bills in vogue at the pres
ent time.
The argument started when Com
missioner of Finance Alex Stern re-
fused to approve three bills that came
TO him and of whose origin he knew
nothing.
Mayor II. F. Emery said that when
the commission started four years
ago an understanding was reached
which made it necessary for requisi-
tions, signed by the. commissioner. to
be secured before any supplies could
! be purchased and this reduisition was
then to be attached to the bill before
| it could be allowed This made every
commissioner conversant with what
was being spent and bills were not
| allowed as corn is run through
shelter as Mayor Emery expressed
! it.
City Engineer Anders who was at
| the session, said that would be all
| right If there was some commissioner
on the job all the time who had
| authority to sign these acquisitions.
| I'VE are all busy in the engineers Of
BILE running around trying to find a
commissioner to sign our requisi-
tions," said Mr.. Anders. I'VE have
always tried to get our reauisitions on
everything purchased and have fol-
lowed out this practice faithfully. but
the city's time j, just as valuable as
the time Of any private business-and
it would certainly take a lot of time
to send out a man every time we
wanted to purchase anything. If the
| commissioners came around regularly
every day and signed up acquisitions
at certain time the system might
work all right"
Says Charter is Wronq.
The trouble is, Mr.. Anders," said
Commissioner Stern, "the legislature
did not give us the right kind of a
charter. The charter should nav one
of the commissioners enough for him
to put his entire time on city business
and be the city manager with the re-
mainder of the commissioners as an
advisory board. With a city manager
such as some few cities have. there is
a responsible head who, Is always or
the job and who is where he can be
found. AS it is under the present svs-
tenn I and all the other commissioner;
here have to attend to our own bust
ness"
Mayor Emery and Commissions,
Blakemore also believed that the city
manager system would be quite an
improvement Mr.. Blakemore STATING
that he did not see how the present
system Of purchasing and of allow
ing bills could he remedied unless the
commissioners held a meeting every
morning.
However. the requisition system will
be tried out for a time at least 2
resolution having been passed IA
that effect.
