WANT TO BUILD SCORIA ROAD
FROM KILLDEER TO DICKINSON

Manning News: Some agitation is
being made and, in fact, some action
has already been taken, to place
scoria on the road between Dickinson
and Killdeer, via Manning, a distance
of about SO miles. There is said to
be more travel on this road than any
other road in the county, and it is
probably in worse condition, during
wet weather, than any other road in
the county by reason of the rough
country and poor damage in places.
Considerable work has been done on
this road during the past two years,
new grades built and hills cut down,
so that all that remains to be done to
make it a fine road would be a top
dressing Of scoria and proper drain
age. Those who have talked on the
proposition advance the theory that
we would be able to get together a
fund by popular subscription that
at least the worst places this season
and follow it up with more work next
year until the entire road Is covered
with this material.
AS a starter one Dickinson business
man informed the News that he
would donate 5000 in cash and he
thought there were numerous other
individuals who would subscribe liber-
ally. In talking to others we learn
that the movement is becoming popu-
lar and with a little agitation there
would be no trouble to get the neces-
sary funds. There are several grades
on the road that are already covered
with scoria and these have stood the
test and are among the best pieces
Of road in the county today. With
additional expense and labor all of
the road could be put in just as good
condition.
To help get the matter started the
News would suggest that a COM
mittee of business mcn from Dickin-
son, Killdeer and Manning get to-
gether and thresh this matter out
and appoint committees to look after
the funds, and to arrange further de-
tails. What do you think of it, Kill
deer and Dickinson?

H. C. Schultz of Hankinson brought
in a load of eight hogs from which he
realized $212.4O. The porkers aver
aged about 300 pounds apiece, and
Herman says hog raising is about as

able to find in many years of farm
ing.
An unusual funeral conclave fol-
lowed the remains of George Paten-
burg of Fargo, aged heat victim, to
their last resting place at a Moorhead
cemetery Sunday afternoon. In the
procession for Pantenburg, who was
a pioneer drayman of Fargo, was his
old horse dray which followed the
usual line of carriages and cabs
without a driver.
John Ryan, who tried sleeping I'M

NEW LEADING LADY ARRIVES

Thomas H. Ince engaged Anna
Lehr leads when other producers
passed her by with the proverbial
"cold bright eye." She has succeeded
beyond all expectations in being a
frst-class Register" with big melt
ing gray eyes, loops of blonde hair,
and a tremulous mouth that betrays
the slightest ripple of feeling within.
In this sense Anna Lehr has invest
ed pictures with the eloquence that
rightfully belongs to them-not the
sound and information of voice, but the
appeal to imagination. Directors say
they never have worked with an
actress more keenly alive to the tx
igencies Of a situation. Her transi-
tons may be sudden when required by
the occasion; but they always blend
smoothly into one another.
At the Lyric Friday, August 18th.
De Wolf Hopper plays the name
part in "Sunshine Dad" in direct con-
trast to his costume vehicle "Don
Quixote." "Sunshine Dad" is an old
sport, who does not approve of his
sons staid manner And his wild life
results in getting the son into a COM
plicated predicament. A gang of
villainous Hindoos, a real lion turned
loose, and a treacherous Count, figure
in the play. However, in the conclud-
ing scenes, "Sunshinc Dad" proves
himself worthy of the hand of Widow
Marrimore, a charming person,
played by Fay Tincher. At the Lyric

Helen Cumber1y, although she was succumbing rapidly to the singular fas- c1nation of M. Max, exhibited cer- tain hesitancy. She was no stranger to bohemian customs, and if the dis tinguished Frenchman had been an old friend of her companions she should have accepted without demur. But she knew that the acquaintance had com menced in continental railway train. and her natural prudence instinctively took up a brief for the prosecution. But Denise Ryland had other views. "My dear girl," she said, "you are not going to be so crack brained as to stand here arguing and contracting rheumatism, lumbago and other absurd complaints when you know perfectly well that we had already arranged to go to supper" She turned to the smil- ing Max. 'eThis girl needs drag~ing out of her morbid self, M. Gas.on. We'll accept your cab on the distinct understanding that you are to accept our invitation to supper"
 M Max bowed agreeably. "By all means let my cab take us to your supper" he said, laughing. At few minutes before midnight Helen Cumberly and Denise Ryland escorted by the attentive Frenchman, arrived at Palace mansions. Any dis. trust which Helen had experienced at first was replaced now Sy the esteem which every one of discrimination terminals excluded) formed of M Max. She perceived in him very ex. quisite gentleman and, although the acquaintance was but one hour old counted him a friend. Denise Ryland | was already quite at home in the Cum. berly household, and she insisted that Dr. Cumberly would be deeply morti fled should M Gaston take his depar tureN eNwithout making his acquaintance Thus it came about that M. Gaston Max was presented (as "M. Gaston') to Dr. Cumberly.
 Cumberly, who had learned to ac. cept men and women upon his daugh- ter's estimate, welcomed. the resplen- dent Parisian hospitably. The warm, shaded lights made convivial play in the amber deeps of the decanters, and the cigars. had a freside fragrance l which M. Max found wholly irresisti 1 ble.

 Max blew a ring of smoke from his lips and watched it slowly dispersing. 'For certain reasons" he replied, and his odd American accent became momentarily more perceptible, ''I should prefer that my visit had the appearance of being a professional one."
 Cumberly was unable to conceal his surprise; but, assuming that his visitor had good reason for the request, he re. piled after a moments reflection:
