MISS VAN SOLEN
LOSES BIG AUTO
Eight Cylinder Olds Burns on
Road Beyond Prison

Miss Lucille Van Solen, pro-
prietor of the famous Van Solen
ranch at Cannonball, was left
stranded on the Red Trail, two
miles east of the state peniten-
tiary last night, when her eight
cylinder Oldsmobile caught fire
and was completely destroyed.
Miss Van Solen was en- route
home from a visit in Bismarck,
planning to take the east road
and cross the river at Cannon
ball, owing to the ferry being out
of operation at this point. She
was about two miles east of the
penitentiary when heat under the
floor of her car warned her that
something was wrong. She barely
had time to stop the car and leap
from her seat when the whole
machine burst into flames. (

END
MAY SEE CLOSE
OF PEACE BOARD
Adriatic| Question Not Expected
to Prolong Life of Paris
Conference !

Paris, oct. 31.-The end of November
may see the close of the Paris peace
conference which has negotiated the
peace treaty with Germany and Austria
and has carried the negotiations with
bulgaria well toward completion.
Unless the conference can speedily
reach an agreement with Roumania
and compel it to discontinue it's inter-
ference in Hungarian affairs, there
seems little chance that a peace treaty
can be negotiated with Hungary at
present, in which case the conference
will probably close without making
the treaty.
The Adriatic question will not neces-
sarily prolong the life Of the confer
ence.
December / is now looked upon as
the latest probable date for the adz
journment.

not exterminate the ancient feud be-

linquished by the new revolutionary
government, altho, with its fertile soil,

economic importance to Russia Aus
tria, also. handed over Galicia to the
Polish government without violent OPP
position. This province was of no
economic value to Austria, and the
Poles and Austrians have always en-
joyed the most amiable relations. But
Germany is likely to be stubborn to
the end.
She has brought her Polish prov
inces up to a high state of agricultural
and Industrial prosperity, and she re-
CARDS their retention as necessary to
her very existence. Without them.
her east flank is left exposed; about
she is in the class of second rate pow

the fact that while the Poles greatly
outnumber the Germans in the prov
ince of Posen, the Germans have by
far the largest majority in West Prus-
sia7which contains the port of Dant-
zig necessary to the success of the
new Polish nation-and in Silesia,
which is rich in coal and iron mines.
OF course, turn about is fair play, and
it will be rather interesting to see the
Poles control the Germans. who have
SO long controlled them. But they will
have to develop a strong arm to keep
Germany from interfering.

Wsxld's Highest Paid Woman Writer.
Women and Luck.-1.

Women's god is the great god Luck.
so often as the word luck. When she
is happy and successful she speaks of
herself as being lucky. When she is
miserable and a failure she deplores
her bad LUCK.
A woman very rarely formulates
any definite plan of action. or Is guild
ed by any philosophy of life. She
plays the game of existence on a
bunch and attributes the results to
chance, which absolves her from
either praise or blame. She feels NJ
personal responsibility in the matter.
1t is this blind fatalism that ex-
plains why women use so little intel
ligence in solving their own problems,
why they bring SO many needless sor-
rows down upon their own heads, and
why the majority of them can do the
same thing over every day of TIER
lives for seventy years and Never
learn to do it properly. 1t is because
they are obsessed by the superstition
that results lie on the knees of the
gods, instead of in their own hands
and nothing that they do, or leave
undone, changes the issue.
A woman knows, for instance that
the happiness of her whole life de-
ponds absolutely upon the kind of a
man she marries. She will be happy
if she marries man who is moral
sober, Industrious, tender, kind and
generous. She will be misera BILE if she
| marries a man who is philanderer
or a drunkard, loafer or one who is
| hard, cold and stingy.
1t is not difficult for a woman tc
| find out before marriage which OF
these characteristics a man possesses
| but does the woman do so? Never
She is so firmly convinced that matri-
| mony is a lottery, and that whetteI
| she gets a good husband, or a bad
| one, depends entirely upon chance
! that she doesn't take the trouble tc
make a single investigation about tht
man to whom she is binding herself
| for life. She will deliberately marry
a drunkard expecting him to become
| sober. or rogue on the chance he
will reform, or take a long shot at q
spender and waster becoming thrifty
and industrious.
