Baird to Look After Traveling Men w. F. iburn of ceeds T. oil ii Washburn of Fargo W. Jackman of Fargo a r, and R. O. Baird of Far- go succeeds A. Whittlesby of Grand Forks, resigned, as state hotel in- spector, beginning tomorrow. These appointments were filed today by Governor Frazier Other commissions which were mailed out today to become effective tomorrow, are C. J. McGurren of Devils Lake to be superintendent of the state board of health; A. M. Call of Rugby, to be vice president of the state board of health, and Fred W. Smith president of the state science scheol at Wahpeton; A. G. Crane, preside.t of the Minot normal; C. E. Cavette of Lisbon, superintendent of schools in Hansom county, and A. A. Whittemore of Bowman, to be mem- bers of the state board of education. These nominations were confirmed by the senate during the Fifteenth ‘assembly. During the day Governor Frazier probably will name two members of the new state highway commission. This commission must organize not later than Thursday, and, as chair- man of the board, it is probable the governor will remain in the city to attend this session in preference to ground after a previous attempt, made the night before had failed. In tne first effort shades which had been re- moved from the windows by the teach- er were restored by the destroyers, in order that residents in the neigh- borhood of the school might not see the flames, and a large section of flooring in the vicinity of the stove was saturated with oil and ignited. The flames burned out after consuming a space of about six feet, and the dam- age was not discovered until school was opened the following morning. Tracks were found, and the footprints of a horse believed to have been rid- den by the fire bug were traced to a point two miles from the school house, And that night the incendiarist re- turned and completed the job. There had been some little argument as to the location of the school, which ig now situated on the east side of the Little Missouri. A majority of taxpayers wanted a school on the west side of the river, and the school board recently had voted to comply with their wishes and ‘build a new school there. This friction, therefore, can hardly be held responsible for the destruction of the old school building. While in the western part of the state, Deputy Reade also investigated the burning of a school at South Heart.
