CONWAY HAS
A $4,000 FIRE

Conway, N. D., Feb.2.-Fire which
originated in a vacant hall above the
Mcdonald pool hall, yesterday, de-
stroyed five buildings, including a
large hotel. The loss is estimated at
from $4,000 to $4,000. The amount
of insurance carried could not be
learned today.
The buildings destroyed are:
The John Mcdonald pool hall, the
John E. Wortz hotel, Harry Berg's
general store, which included the post
office and telephone exchange, and one
building occupied by the Conrad
Berjkie general store and the Frank

tel, had his hands badly burned and
frozen.
The origin OF the fire is unknown.
Although it started in the vacant hall
above the Mcdonald place, in which
there have been no stoves for some
little time, there is nothing to indi-
cat that it was of an incendiary ORR
gin.

Ignite PRODUCTION
ON THE INCREASE

The production Of Ignite coal de-
posits of which are extremely heavy
in North Dakota, especially in the
western part Of the state, has increas-
ed more than 200 percent owing to
the war, and the scarcity of anthra-
cite and bituminous Goals from the
east, according to figures compiled
here.
Until this year the use of Ignite
coal had been largely local except as
to the state institutions, a majority Of
which burned Ignite for several years.
High prices Of eastern coal coupled
with war conditions however, have ov1
ercome the prejudice which long ex-
listed in the eastern part Of the state,
coal dealers say, and Ignite is coming
into general favor as it is largely in
demand from all parts of the state.
!: Ignite coal, it is said, will burn
under any conditions common to the
use of anthracite or bituminoue and
| that the best feature Of its burning
is that as long as thefe is a single
atom Of carbon left in the firebox, 1t
will never go out, no matter how long
it may be neglected.
Despite the fact that Ignite min
ers are being paid on an average Of
| 81 a dsy; while In one instance one
Ignite miner received $25 for one
day's work recently, for mining . cot.
tain number Of cars, labor % scarce
and appeals have been sent out call
ing for more workers.

First Disaster to American Sol

definite information has been received of the dis

This is the first sinking of ship carrying American
soldiers, and while it may he considered great dis

ocean, it seems almost miracle that more were not
lost

Minot, N. D., Feb. 4.-The Shaw
custer fight is on again as a result OF
a three to two opinion Of the supreme
court handed down, which affirms the
decision Of Judge Cole Of Fargo in
district court denying Mayor w. S
Shaw of Minot writ Of prohibition
which would prevent Governor Fra
zier from deprivjng the Magic City
chief executive of his job, on charges
of ineficiency growing out Of the Mi
not vice raids.
Custer proceedings against Shaw
were commence: by Governor Frazier
months ago, and L. j. Wehe Of Devils
Lake was named referee to take evi-
dence at the hearings. Shaw then
filed petition in the district court Of
Ward county TO. writ Of prohibition
alleging that the North Dakota sta
tutes providing for the removal OF
municipal officers by the governor ex-
pressly except the president Of a city
commission, who. Shaw claimed, can
not be held to be the same as the
mayor of a city.
Judge Cole denied the writ, and
Shaw appealed to the supreme court
where the case was argued some time
ago, Judge E. B. Goss appearing TO,
the petitioner and appellant. Judge
Goss argued that the Governor had nc
authority whatsoever over the presi'
dent Of city commission, and that
the. police powers Of the chief Of 8
city commission were not the same a.
those Of the, mayor Of a city operating
under the council plan; and tha,

ing relatives and friends. She was a
splendid woman, and one who was ev-
er ready to do q kindess whenever the
opportunity presented itself, and by
her kind and pleasant disposition who
acquired near and dear friends wher-
ever she was. She was pioneer Of
this state, having came with her hus-
to this state in the early eighties.
Angie Charron Bell was born in St,
Martin, Quebec, in 1853, and in 1855
moved with her parents to Nashua,
New Hampshire. In 1873 she was
married to William H. Bell, and year
later the young couple came west to
Saltwater, MINI. From there they
came west to Thompson, N. D., and
located on land, and for several years
farmed. Later they moved s,eto the
Village of Thompson, and in.1s90 came
to Devils Lake, where they have since
resided.
Surviving are: the husband, three
children, Mrs. F. B. Leach, Of Fargo,
and Mrs. Ed Elliott and Albert Bell
Of this city. There are four. grand
children, Howard, Darrell and Esther
Elliott, and Eliza Edna Leach. One
brother and five sisters are living.
Mother.
Mother has gone to her sweet rest,
In shining robe she is dressed,
And with the angels now she's blessed,
For her the change is truly best.
Mother-oh love SO wondrous dear,
Thou left us all so lonely here,
The world to US is dark and drear,
Flows on and on the silent tear
Mother-we miss thy sweet blessing,
We wait in vain the caressing.
Thy dear name we're still addressing,
And our love for thee confessing.
Mother-we stand on hallowed ground
As thy blest bier we now surround.
Say goodbye a. thy burial mound,
Thinking Of the bliss thou hast found.
Mother none sought to help in vain,
Nor ever knew her to complain.
When trials here she met or pain,
A lovely. life she did attain.
Mother a noble life 50 sweet
Has gone above her Lord to meet,
Found rest at last for weary feet
Treads only Heavens golden street

INDEPENDENT I
STATE FORMED
Count KaroIyi Starts Anti
DynaStic Community of CzechS
and SIavonianS in Hungary

81 Associated Press.
COPENHAGEN, Oct. 29;-An In
dependent and anti-dynastic state has
been formed in Hungary under the
leadership of Count Michael Karolyi
in agreement with the Czechs and
South Slavonians, according to Vien-
ma reports received by the Politiken.
In a speech at Budapest, Karolyi
declared he had presented his pro-
gram to Emperor Charles who re-
fused to accept IL. karolyi thereupon
put into effect his plan for an inde-
pendent state.
Count Karolyi is president of the
Hungarian independent party and has
long been an opponent of the govern
ment party OF Count Tisza. He has
been in favor of Hungarian independ-
ence and on October 20 submitted a
motion in the Hungarian House of
Lords for the disunion of Hungary
from Austria.
In addition to being anti-German.
Count Karolyi has appealed to Aus
tria-Hungary to make a peace since
December, 1915. On several occasions
he has demanded in the Hungarian
parliament that Hungary make peace
Last February Count Michael was
accused of high treason by his cous-
In. The Hungarian ministry has never
taken action on the charges against
him.
Shortly before the outbreak of the
war Count Karolyi was ~lecturing in
the United States. He sailed for
Europe late in July and was detained
at Bordeaux for several months, final
~ being allowed to return home.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 29:-Interesl
in official circles today was centered
on the new peace note from Austria,
reported in press dispatches to be on
its way to Washington through the

Though no official announcement
has yet been made, 1t was considered
as certain that no answer will be made
to the latest communication from
Germany delivered yesterday to Presi-
dent Wilson.
Though the Austrian note, accord
Ing to the unofficial text. goes farther
than has any of the German peace
proposals in that IL asks the President
to begin immediate negotiations for
peace and an armistice without await
ing further exchanges with Germany,
many officials saw no sign of the x
pected break In the alliance of the
Central Powers. In fact, IL is be-
lieved that h Tenn and Berlin
