y|RULENT POISON
FOUND N SOUP,
GUESTS ARE ILL
Chef at Club Is Missing and the
Dope Is Found in His
Room.
CHURCH DIGNITARY DID
NOT PARTAKE HEAVILY

Chicago, Feb. 12.-Virulent poison
was found today by city chemists in
samples of the soup served at the
banquet in honor of Archbishop Mum
delein at the University club, Thurs
day night. The discovery, coupled
with the disappearance of kitchen
employe of the club, and the finding
of a similar poison in private lab
oratory in his room, together with
literature classed as anarchistic, led
the police to believe that, the illness
which oyereslne more than LOO OF the
diners was the deliberate attempt to
poison the guests. 3g
The nature of the poison discovered
and fear that perhaps a slow acting
poison had also been mingled with
the banquet's viands prompted the
city health commissioner, DR.. John
D. Robertson, to issue warning to
all who attended the banquet to place
themselves Immediately under the
care Of a physician.
Several of the distinguished guests
were so affected that they have not
yet recovered. Two are still confin-
ed to their beds, and a number of
others today said that they still felt
the effects of the poisonous soup.
Archbishop Mundelein was not af-
fected by the poison. He ate very
sparingly of the soup and said today
that he had not felt any i'll effects.
The absence of Jean Crones, assist
ant chef at the club, was noted by
the manager, II. j. Doherty, and his
suspicious were aroused. With a po-
liceman, he went to Crones' room in
Prairie avenue and there discovered
the laboratory and found the poison
glass.

Conferees on Primary Law Differ.
ences Fail to Reach an
Agreement.

Pierre, S. D., Feb. 12.-The house
today took up the senate resolution
providing for constitutional amend
ment for good roads, which had been
tackled on to the rural credits resolu'
ton, and amended it by cutting it
loose entirely from rural credits and
submitting to the people an amend
ment to the constitution which al
lows the state to engage in road max,
ing and development of the coal on
state lands. The severance Of the
rural credits proposition by the
amendment assured it's passage by
the house; defeat was practically GER
tain as long as they were tied to-
gether.
Going to the People.
The amended resolution has gone
back to the senate for it's action, and
will probably be submitted to the peo-
pie at the next election.
The conferees on the differences be-
tween the two houses on the primary
bill, contrary to expectation. do not
appear to be agreeing and are at
deadlock at the present time.
Foes Of "Slate" Protest.
Several house members held con-
ference last night. in which they ex-
pressed their disapproval of what
they contend is an apparent attempt
to frame up slate for the coming
primary election.
The State Irrigation congress has
elected Doane Robinson of Pierre,
president; C. A. Nystrom of Rapid
City, secretary, and Charles L. Mel
lette of Fort Pierre, treasurer.

MILITARY TRAINING
Land Grant Institutions Would
Welcome Departments Proposed
by Washington. .s.

Proposed federal legislation to
make military instruction compulsory
In all educational institutions having
land grants is not likely to be op-
posed in North Dakota. There are
seven educational institutions with
land grants, but only two have mill
tary departments. At the Agricultur.
al college in Fargo military instruc.
ton is featured and the commandant
is a regular army officer Three or
four well drilled companies are main,
tanned. At the Normal-lndustrial at
Glendale there is military instruc.
ton. Prior to the Spanish-American
war the state university conducted
military courses but at that time the
equipment was called in by the gov.
ernment and it has not been renew.
ed.
Regardless of their views on the
general subject of preparedness many
people in the state would like to see
military instruction at the state edu-
cational institutions. They believe
the drill is highly beneficial to the
student.
In the event of war, many believe
military instruction in these institu.
tions would solve the problem of fur.
nishing officers.

The Foundina of FranlCfort.

The beautiful German commercial city of Frankfort on the Main ts said to have had a curious origin
 When the Emperor CharlemagDs cOntended with the SaxOns the for tunes of war were often against him On one occasion he was forced to retire along the banks of the Main At the time there was a thick fog, and he was unable to find his ship or any place where his army could cross.
 He was almost in despair when a doe, carrying young one, sprang from a thicket in alarm, leaped into the stream and swan over. Charlemagne followed the example and crossed at the same place, The fog concealed the army, which escaped detection
 When the emperor reached the shore he stuck his spear into the earth and exclaimed:
 "Here shall city arise, to be called Frankenford!'
 In consequence of crossing the stream he overthrow the Saxons. He then built the town, which afterward became the scene of imperial corona tions and later of great commercial mportance.-London Answers.

Girls In Korea.

Girls in Korea have no names or what would be considered names in the western world. There are no Marys or Mabels or Ruths.i The little ones are given pet names at their birth, and these they bear until they are ten years old, after which they are no longer used. After her tenth birth day the young woman is known as 'tdr. Kim's daughter or 'FMr. Rims girl baby" The latter title is consid- cred the more honorable.
 If there are several daughters in the family they are distinguished by such words as "big'' for the eldesD, "secz ond," third ''fourth,'' etc. After marriage they are known by their hus- bands name and title, with the word house affixed. They may also be distinguished by the name of the place from which they came when marry ing, as "Mrs. of the House of Kim, the young lady who came from Kong JO"
