ICE BREAKING
IN MISSOURI
CHANNEL OF RIVER CLEARED
FROM THE JAM.

Sioux City, March 16.-Ice IN the
Missouri river at Sioux City began
to move out at $50 o'clock Monday
night and by morning the channel
was full of running ice. 1t is still
holding at Yankton, S. D., and more
northerly points, but 10 days of
thawing weather has reduced the
thickness of the ice materially. AT
Yankton, Monday, morning, the ice
was still solid, but cutting rapidly in
the channel, where it was only 8
inches thick
Traffic on the ice across the Mis-
souri, river at Pierre, S. D., ceased
March 10, and the Ice in the Bad
river there has moved out. Although
the James, Big Sioux and other
streams tributary to Sioux City have
shown a gradual rise for several
serious trouble in the way of floods
No serious danger from flood wa
ters is anticipated by the govern
ment weather bureau. Advices from
Bismarck, N. D., indicate that there
is more snow in western North Da-
kota and eastern Montana and on the
eastern slope of the Rocky noun
tains than in several years. The ice
is not quite as thick as usual at Bis
marck for this time of the year, but
it is usually heavy at Fort Benton
and points below almost to Bis
marck. The snow over the upper
watersheds is disappearing rapidly,
much of which is being absorbed by
the soil and no decided changes in
river conditions have been reported
at points in Montana or North Da-
kota.

MEN SLUGGED AND BEA-
TEN

Chicago, March 16.- Bombing
and slugging marked the outbreak
of Chicago's labor war today. The
homes of John White and Peter For
tier were rocked and shattered by
bombs during the night. This fol-
lowed a reign of daylight terror in
which twenty non-union workmen on
buildings were slugged and beaten.
John Stevens, union plumber, who
returned to work because his family
was starving, will die. Three slug
gers fractured his skull and severad
one ear. The war, according to po-
lice, is due to dissatisfaction with
the arbitration award in the build
ing trades made by Judge Lands.

There are two qualities which we
might say are almost inherent in farm
homes, at least they are always ex-
pected-hospitality and informal COM
fort. There are some other qualities,
perhaps not so good, which have been
associated with farm homes for many
years but which, happily, are gradually
losing ground. They are poor water
supply and bathing facilities, lighting
and heating. Thanks to inventive
genius and American progressivism
running water Is now the regular
thing and many farm homes boast of
electric lighting and heating plants.
But aside from these accessories,
the farm home has always been

soston's First Health officer.

The first health commissioner Of
Boston was no less person than Paul
Revere. This may surprise many per-
sons who consider the midnight ride
Revere's one claim to fame-apart,
that is, from an interesting and rather
quaint craftsmanship in gold and
silver.
He was a versatile man, however,
and study Of his life will reveal
many varied activities in which he in.
terested himself. For instance, an adj
v-rtisement printed In 176S shows him
to have at least dabbled in dentistry.
He was a young man at that time and
was just beginning to make his repu-
tation as an engraver, though still fol
lowing the trade Of goldsmith.

this house has running water fur
nished by water-supply system. Just
outside the kitchen is a rear hall
through which the workers can enter
the house and wash up in the lavatory
Off this hall.
On the second floor are three bed
rooms, one Of good size, 10 by "a feet.
The two rear bedrooms are smaller
and each room has the advantage OF
windows on two Sides. There Is high
attic with windows which can be used
for extra sleeping rooms. These can
be fitted up when needed for little
cost-all that is needed is some wall
board for partitions and ceiling.
The house is 25 feet deep and 80
feet wide, not including the porch,
which Is another z feet So, you can
see, an unusual amount Of room and
comfort is really provided In rea-
sonably sized space. The excellent
room arrangement is responsible for
this.
1t Is quite apparent why the colonial
type Of home should be getting popu-
lar In rural sections. 1t provides what
the farmers need and want in their

satisfy this requirement a large living

At night this porch can be used for
