Missions Do HeaIth-Work.

The Christian forces in China are
becoming increasingly effective in
their efforts to improve social and SAM
tary conditions in Chinese cities. The
Young Mems Christian association has
been conducting health campaign in
Hangchow. The abbot of the large
Buddhist temple in central China in
vited Mr.. Turner, the secretary, to re-
peat his lecture on sanitation in the
temple. There were more than 100
priests and about 200 villagers to hear
the lantern lecture on sanitation. Mr..
Turner distributed tuberculosis story
J calendars-the story of two brothers ;
one followed the laws of health and
lived to a good old age, the other did
not and died of tuberculosis at an early
age. A week after the lecture the alb
bot of the temple came to the associa-
ton bringing with him two priests to
become members. These men represent
much of superstition and yet have lat
ent power. They are now friendly

The speaker declared that last win
ter, during the session of the legfs-
Iature, when the league introduced
II. B. No. A in the assembly, and he
made fight on 1t. that word was sent
to him that the university would re-
ceive no appropriation, that the state
fair would not get it's appropriation,
broken financially within a year, If
he didn't abandon his fight. His answer,
he told the delegates, was that they
could carry out their threats, but that
the right OF free speech could not be
denied him.
That the Nonpartisan president, in
his recent tour of the state. set him.
self up as a greater man than the

Convention Legal.
Fred Traynor, Devils Lake, ex-
P4N0GlAS n4AhSCAA IAlOA0dBAAy
as to the legality OF the convention
called attention to the fact
that the convention was made up of
men who have heretofore, in many
instances, bitterly opposed each other
men on the same delegations hav-
ing, in other years, been pronounced
enemies of each other, now gathered
to meet a common enemy.
Ramsey county, though 1t has
candidate, stands ready to give it's
to the convention nominee,
said Mr.. Traynor.
A. w. Fowler, Fargo, advanced the
theory Of an affirmative program Of
and the selection of a
man fitted to go before the people
with affirmative declarations as re-
lates to present day problems.
Each OF the candidates spoke
briefly. Each called attention to the
agreement they had made, and each
declared his readiness to jump into
the fight and take his coat off and
spend of his time and money for 'the
other fellow, if he. himself, wasn't
the convention choice.
Upon the motion OF A. N. C.,Myhra,
Of Richland county, the delegates were

ADMIRAL SINS
In CHARGE OF
ALLIED FLEET
American Given Command
of ALI Vessels in Irish
Waters
CBy Associated Press.l

London, June 20-vice Admiral
William s. Sims, United States navy
has been appointed to take general
charge of the operations Of the allied
naval forces in Irish waters.
admiral Sims will act in this capac-
ity while the British naval comman-
der chief is absent from his post
for a period, the official announcement
of his appointment explains. The
American admirafs flag, meanwhile
has been hoisted as the allied senior
officer in these waters. l&
Washington, June 20.-A brief
message from London today brought
the navy department its first news OF
the appointment of Vice Admiral Sims
to command the allied naval forces in
Irish waters during the absence or
commander of that district. The
Washington government has given
Admiral Sims wide powers to enable
him to meet any situation that may
arise. The admiral has full authority
to act on his own initiative in dispos-
ing the forces at his command. Much
of his time has been spent in London
and Paris and yesterdays advices are
the first to indicate that he has been
at sea with his ships.
The statement that Admiral Sims
had hoisted his flag as senior allied
naval officer in Irish waters led to
much speculation as to what American
warship he might be using as flag
ship, as presumably he would hoist
his flag only aboard an American
vessel. The only facts disclosed by
the department as to vessels now in
European waters, is that destroyers
have been sent to British ports and
the naval collier Jupiter to a French
port with supplies.
Tremendous responsibilities have
been placed on Admiral Sims should
ers 1t has been said that even with
out the American vessels, the British
have had thousands of destroyers,
submarine chasers of all kinds, mine
sweepers, air craft and every other
known method of combating sub
marines posted in Irish waters in the
effort to keep open the shipping lanes.
All of these forces are now under
Admiral Sims. On him also rests
probably the duty Of arranging for the
arrival and departure Of commercial
vessels. both trans Atlantic and coast
wise, that ply Irish waters. The Brit
ish admiralty exercises rigid control
over all ship movements and no YES
sci leaves port until the naval conn
mander reports the seas free OF the
enemy. H

The most dangerous age for young

Purity federation in session at Geth-

She stated that at the present time

in North Dakota in 1867 she made
the assertion that 43 were cases of

Touching on vice in the army camps,
the superintendent said the brass but
tons worn by soldiers are faring but
that the men should not lose their
chivalry. She said there was need for
