strength of a wire falsely reporting
the serious illness Of her mother, de.
clined to consider'a reconciliation
after several years separation, Phillip
Smith committed suicide by firing a
revolver bullet into his brain. Before
taking his life, he wrote his wife a
pathetic farewell note, which he
tucked into a pocket Of her apron,
hanging near where his body was
found. Smith married Miss Hanson

convicted of forgery and sentenced to

Everybody looked at each other and
wondered when they read that real
trees of ponderous weight and great
leafy limbs we're to be pulled up by
the roots and brought across the seas
and planted in California to make
realism complete at the exposition.
And people around New York who 60
motoring and committing and just
visiting along the beautiful north
shore of Long Island, have wondered
too, for Mary Pickford built in the
green meadows and along the water

in architecture and size and peopled
it with cosmopolitan crowd that
was genuine. In making the scenes
for LESS Than the Dust" in which
she is seen at the Auditorium tonight,
Mary Pickford and Director John En-
erson left nothing undone to make
the big scenes replete with atmos-
phere and effective realism. The wind

Bowman, N. D., July 2G-President
Covell of the Bowman and Slope

in presenting his annual report at the
convention here he earnestly urged
the withdrawal Of all Sunday schools
in the western part of the state from

citation and the organization of new
unit to be known as the Western
North Dakota Sunday School associa'
ton. President Covell charged that
although the association is paying for,
county work, not penny is being
spent here. He also objected to the
fact that the annual conventions are
held in Fargo, Grand Forks, Bismarck,
MinOt and Devils Lake, and never in
Slope or Bowman county towns. Res
olutions embodying his recommends
tions were unanimously adopted at the
close of the meeting. The only rea-
son that the state Sunday school con-
vention has rotated among the larger
towns is that none other have accom-
modations for the 1900 to 1900 dele

siOns, State officers contend that an
effort has peen made to be fair to
every section Of the state by holding
conventions in every district which

housing accommodations to care for

a camera. Hundreds of people from
New York went out to see it and this

erected on the field near Whitestone

Across the road from the street

YOUNG Farmer
DIES FINISHING
SPLENDID HOME
Death of Hugo Tureck Blow to
Anamooso Community
Scores Attend Funeral

Ananoose, n. D., July 2G.-One OF
the largest funerals ever held in the
village of Ananoose, was that OF
Hugo Tureck, prominent and we'll
TODD farmers who died at his home
four miles southwest OF Anamoose.
Mr.. Tureck had been ailing for the
last four years or more, but was al
ways able to be about to attend to
his farm duties Last year he eXca-
waited the basement and built the con-
crete basement walls for his large
modern farm home and also the foun-
dation for his large barn which taxed
his health considerable. This year
he put forth the supreme effort by
erecting and completing the buildings
which are some Of the largest and
most modern, as well as stylish set OF
farm buildings in this part of the
state, costing not less than $4,000.
The carpenters had just finished the
work on the work on the interior OF
the house and all that was left was
the finishing work for the painters
and interior decorating and the house
would have been ready for occupancy.
But this was denied Mr.. Tureck. He
occupied his elaborate home only
when his body remained therein until
it was taken to it's final resting place.
Mr.. Tureck was only "a years old,
yet he was the owner of one o. the
best farms in this part Of the state

EDWARDS TELLS OF

ASSOCIATION MEET

Jamestown, N. D., July 26.-E. r.
Edwards of the state department OF
education addressed the students OF
the summer school at jamestown col
lege this week on the recent meeting
of the National Educational associa-
ton at Portland, Ore He presented
the chief features of the program, emil
merated the ideas emphasized and
summarized the principal addresses. .
A visitor at the meeting could not
fail, he said, to find that the control
ing idea Of the meeting of this great
association had to do with patriotism
and with the holding for the youth of
our land all gains already attained.
Another conspicuous fact was the
large attendance of women at the as
ISOLATION. Several things contributed
to bring this about. One is the
strength Of suffrage on the coast. He
was convinced that the part played by
women at the meeting in no way de.
tracted from the force of the argu-
ment in favor of extension of her
rights. f@ -
