of the bloodiest days in the city's

his first engagement within the city.
Woman Among Wounded
Among the wounded was at least
one woman who, with several others.

rebels shortly before dawn Thursday,
Ia few hours before Colonel Batista,s
loyal troops opened the devastating
attack which resulted In the surren-

was regarded as decisive blow at
the revolutionary cause.
Defeated insurgents were lodged In
Principe and Cahanas fortresses. They
were well cared for. apparently, but
they faced court martial.
Street cars, buses, and taxis appear

Other forms of commerce hesitantly
appeared as business men attempted
to renew their methods Of livelihood.
Shippers Still Active
The only remaining obstacle to COM

believed Friday, would be the con-
tinued sniping by scattered bands Of
rebels.

situation we'll In hand and 1t ap-
reared no foreign Intervention was
contemplated. The U. s. S. Wyoming

Farm Strike Appears Broker
E1auana Is Calm Again After Bloody Battle
Flirting With Death
Can Editorial)

Tragedy turks In one Of the innocent
practices adopted by many Bismarck
children since the recent snowfall.
Unthtnking, many have formed the
habit OF hitching their sleds behind
automobiles for the purpose Of getting
swift, free rides. They give little
thought to the fact that their fun sud-
denly may be turned to terror, that
they are putting themselves directly
In the pathway Of death.
Yet such Is the case.
The motorist, unaware that he has
a sled hitched behind his car, may
swing around q corner. whirling the
sled into the curb or against parked
car, possibly into the path OF another
vehicle which would have no oppor-
tunity to stop.
Hundreds Of such cases have re-
suited In instant death In the past.
The possibility OF disaster is ever
present when such practices prevail.
Some motorists report that children
are lurking near filling stations to

Many children have literally been

The wonder is, II the practice is as
