New York, February 3, l925.- It isn't very often that New York talk es to galoshes and goes galumping from one pool of water Co another like the proverbial stag that leaped from crag to crag. But this week s storm did the trick. As though Dame Nature had made up her mind to give the metropolis puzzle that would mt all the daily crosswords m Che shade. there came storm that stump ed the greatest city in the world. First there was snow, then ram which froze.-then more snow and then some sleet on top of that. The result was chaos. 4 day of January thaw and New York WAS hystericaL The streets ran with water. Dirty snow piled itself higher than from the storm of last week Milady promptly hid her thinly clad ankles in the depths of the national galosh and did a Pavlowa us she crossed from one curb Co another.
 Music and Other Things
 We are not the only correspondent to the outlying papers who has often asserted that New York has become the musical center of the world. Even the threatened deatruc- ton of Carnegie Hall, the bad weather. the splashing streets and the taxieab war cannot stem Manhattan's tide of melody. Three great orches- tras, visiting conductors and solo ar- tists in score of concerts week furnish the food for New York's vor- acious musical appetite. This past week the sensation was the departure of FuertWancier, guest conductor of the Philharmonic. Coming Tor series ef ten weeks 0f concerts, taia eminent conductor made such name for himself that when he said good bye last week. he was cheered for hnif an hour until finally he was fore ed Co become that exceptional per- son. an audible conductor, and utter a spoken farewell.
 Those who saw the Russian ballet when it danced first in New York some years ago will remember always the delightful "Petrouehka" of the Russian Igor straVinsisy. Since those early days straviusky has become a modern classic and 1t was inevitable that the most prominent of all living composers should finally come to New York. He has been and has conquer. ed and on Thursday and Friday of this week. New York will hear the great Russian himself play his own piano concerto with the Philharmonic at Carnegie Hall.
 And also. if there be any deladed soul who cherished the idea that the war had killed any American love Of Wagner. we sincerely hope that he went to the Metropolitan Opera House last Saturday afternoon when the "Gotterdamerung was reslfea De- fore an audience that crowded every box and gallery and apptauded the final work of the Ring e the ecno.

The writ of mandamas was de-
manded by Herbrandson when he
was denied the use of the auditorium

MAYNARD GIRL
RETURNS HOME
Ward County Miss Ordered
Released From School

Parents are entitled to the custody
of their wayward children if they
are Of good character and the home
surroundings are good, the state su-
preme court states in a decision
handed down late Saturday in which
a writ Of habeas corpus is ordered
issued for the release of Alice Sol
berg, II, of Ward county, from the
State Training school at Mandan.
The girl, who was the mother Of an
illegitimate child, was sentenced to
the State Training school for the
period of her minority by the Ward
county juvenile court. The parents
Of the girl asked for a writ of ha-
beas corpus in the Ward county dis
trict court, but the writ was denied
and the case was appealed to the SUI
preme court.
In ordering q writ of habeas corp
US issued the supreme court stated
that the law gives the parents the
right to the custody Of the child un-
less it is shown they are not fit per-
sons. The decision stated that num-
erous affidavits testified to the fit
ness of the parents Of Alice Solberg
and the Christian character of the
home surroundings. The decision set
forth that the girl was more in need
of the loving sympathy and care of
her parents in decent home than
such training in the arts as she may
receive in the public institution for
delinquent girls.

nounced.
Every county auditor who "has
ideals for improvement or who is
seeking such ideals" should attend
the conference, Mr.. Felson said. He
urged that the county officers con-
slider the meeting as a medium Of
exchange of problems and ideas look
ing toward improvement of the
business of auditing the county's
books.
Several different methods are used
in the cost keeping systems or book
keeping records; different forms OF
ledgers are used; and in some coun-
ties the same form of warrant is
used for all payments and other dis
crepancies in an otherwise uniform
county record keeping arrangement
occur, Mr.. Nelson said. Standardiza-
tion Of these and unification of rec
ords will therefore be one Of the
principal subjects Of the meeting.

BURKE COUNTY
AGAIN SUES
BANK OF N. u.

Bowbells, N. D., May 4.-Suit has
been instituted anew by Burke
county against the Bank Of North
Dakota and Lawrence Larson, for
mer treasurer of Burke county, in
which the plaintiff seeks to recover
approximately $4,000 Of funds
which are alleged to have been lost
through the closing of the First
State bank Of Bowbells.
The original action was recently
dismissed in Burleigh county dis
trict court, due to technicality in
the complaint.
In 1921, it is alleged; through an
agreement made between the Bank of
North Daokta and Mr., Larson, the
Bank Of North Dakota gave draft
of approximately $4,000, drawn on
the Bowbells bank, which the Bank
Of North Dakota indorsed without
recourse. This draft pprported to
be In settlement Of the county's de-
posits in the Bank Of North Dakota.
Subsequently the Bowbells bank
was closed, and it IL alleged that
the county never was able to collect
this sum. Larson's successor in Of
flee declined to accept this draft as
an accounting for this amount Of
money belonging to the county.

Linton Youth Fails to Re.
turn From Hunting Trip
in EmmOns County
GONE SINCE APRIL l3
Hills and Valley Secured
and River Dragged For
Carl Heidlinger

Hills and Valleys around Linton
have been secured by searching par
ties and the Big Beaver river has
been dragged in the hunt for Carl
Heidlinger, l8 year old son Of Mr..
and Mrs. Martin Heidlinger, who
disappeared from his home on April
l3.
The mother is in a serious condi-
tion from worry over the disappear
ance Of her son and the father has
enlisted the aid of the police Of
North Dakota cities in the search for
the lad.
1t is feared that he met with an
accident while hunting near Linton
and is lying dead in some gully near
that city.
Mr.. and Mrs. Heidlinger left their
home in Linton early on the morn
ing Of April l3 to visit their farm
near that place. The boy was in the
house when they left and upon their
return late in the morning they found
a note from him stating he had gone
hunting but would return early in
tHc dlleTuOoH. NelSHDOTS SaIu tney
saw the youth leave the house carry
ing his rifle about the middle of the
morning.
When the youth had not returned
by evening the parents became wor-
ried and made inquiries about him
from his school mates and compan-
ions but none had seen him. Search
ing parties we're organized the next
day and careful hunt made but no
trace of the lad was discovered.
The parents do not believe the boy
run away from home, for his home
life and his relations with his family
we're pleasant and he had no bad
habits. They are satisfied that if
he had left home of his own accord
he would have notified his mother
of his whereabouts before this. He
spent great part Of his time in the
hills hunting and knew every foot Of
territory for miles around.
The youth is described as of medi-
um height. He has light hair and
weighs lS0 pounds.

Washington, May 4.-The recent
collapse in grain prices after their
advance of last fall and winter in the
opinion OF. C. f. Marcy, chairman OF
the board Of managers Of the Grain

Mr.. Marcy declared that this mis-.

the world prices during the period
preceding the collapse that for the
time being the American farmer lost
his market and at the same time q
much higher market was made fol-
