Fire Marshal
Claims Victory

Bismarck, N. D.. Dec. 27.-State
Fire Marshal H. L. Reade feels that
his department has won notable
victory in the conviction in the Ward
county district court of Ward Nc
Grill, found guilty of arson and SEN
fenced to a term of four to seven
years in the state penltentiary.
McCrill was owner of a large room
ing house in the Magic City's ten
derloin. After the Minot cleanup a
year ago. an injunction was secured
against the McCrill property, and
the sheriff called to seal the doors Of
the establishment. McCrill, stating
there was some personal property
in the house which he desired to re-
move, persuaded the sheriff to defer
action until the following morning.
That was the evening OF February G.
AT 3 o'clock the following morning
fire was discovered in the McCrill
building. The firemen quickly ex-
tinguished the blaze, and it is alleged
that they discovered that the build
ing had been fired in several differ
ent places. It being claimed that
holes had been punched in the parti-
lions, and oil-soaked rags and paper
inserted before touching a match.

of the medical corps and several
majors and still more captains and
Heutenants-all men OF reputation In
America as doctors. Two Of his
subjects were the two men over
whom he worked that first morning.
They came into the clinic. clear-eyed
and straight and rudy as athletes
from the field. They passed tests
that the doctors couldn't pass them
himself by his shoulders and his
ankles between two tables, held the
weight of four OF the huskiest OF the
doctors standing upon him at the
same time. Another subject was a
huge negro who had been brought to
the hospital the day before, and
whom Sergeant Van had never seen.
-Four hypodermics had not been able
to quiet him. and they brought him
in in a straight Jacket. 1t took Van
just seven minutes to have him
asleep.
Since then, the shell-shock cases
have been in Vans hands. The doc
tors shake their heads and wonder.
An American professor, well known
for his psychological research work
shakes his head. too. and has moth
ing to say.
In the camp and the hospital they
call him the "hypnotist.' perhaps
he is. Under the management of the
Young Mems Christian association,
he has given a great many perform

But the doctors continue to wonder
and to say that Van has discovered
the first really successful treatment
for shell-shock.

from Major Dana Wright Of James,

ing Interestingly upon the passing
of the Yanks' wide-brimmed, fatigue

ofthe Americans to that OF the French
soldiers with their much-loved red
trousers. Tine French newspaper
gives as the principal reason for the
substitution of tight fitting trench
caps for the more picturesque west

over the trench periscope and for the

It is stated that the defeat OF Gem

to the fact that two months ago, un-
der allied advice, he proclaimed
Ukraine a part of Russia, whereas
the peasants want that country to
be Independent.
1t is declared that he thus played
into the hands of Petlura, who prom
ised land to the peasants and has is
sued land grants to every man who
has served as a soldier under him.
