CTY HEALTH S EXELLENT SHI ORF. B, STRNIS Verbal Report Made to City Com- mission Shows Results of Vigorous Cleanup URGES ESTABLISHMENT OF CENTRAL SLAUGHTER HOUSE Animals Are Being Killed in Cor- porate Limits Contrary to Law Health conditions are excellent in Bismarck, according to a verbal re- port made last evening by Dr. F. B. Strauss, city health officer, to the city commission. The city recently de- tailed a special officer to assist in cleaning up premises that were a).. menace to the health of the city. Put in Shape. “Most of these,” said Dr. Strauss, “have been put in shape. I believe. however, that the time has come for a central slaughterhouse. ‘There is slaughtering of animals within the city limits, which should not be tol- erated. All private abbatoirs shouid be compelled to clean up at once.! Conditions are better than a few weeks ago, but there is still room for improvement. i Water Supply. “I am informed by the Bismarck Water Supply company that,a chlor- inator has been installed ‘and that the engineer of the company is now at work upon a plan to clarify the water.” Dr. Strauss urged that the deten- tion hospital be given a water sup- ply. It is beyond the reach of the city water plant and it will be neces-| sary to sink a well. At present the water must be hauled in barrels, which has proved unsatisfactory. Garbage Disposal. Attention was called to the fact that garbage collection began ‘Mon- day. People are urged to get galvan- ized cans and co-operate in securing efficient garbage disposal. Dr. Strauss said that refuse was being carried away in vehicles not water tight, whichis contrary to the ordi- nance. Offenders. will be prosecuted if, violations continue. Commissigner R. C. Eattey present-| ed a letter from the Bismarck Wa-/ ter, Supply company, stating that its engineer was at work upon a filtra- tion or clarifying plant and that the same would be in operation as soon as it could be constructed. Boulevard Slackers. Several property owners in Park District No. 1 who elected to care for th boulevards have neglected to do so. City Engineer Atkinson was ask- ed to prepare a list of those who agreed to care for the boulevards. Notice will be sent to them to com- ply with thelr agreement or the city will, be, forced ta cut the grass and water it... Portions of the boulevard are in.a deporable condition.

The application of George Gussner fot permission to build a wooden structure opposite the Annex on Broadway was denied. Mr. Gussner stated that he would cover the build- ing with sheet metal. The commis- sioners took the position that the building regulations in the business district should be adhered to strictly. Curbing on Main. Provision will be made ‘for a curb- ing on Main street west of Corwin’s Rarage, so as to improve the drain- age. When necessity arises a 1§-foot walk will, be ordered in, to conform with the one in front of the garage. Commissioner Kirk was directed to confer with the Soo Line relative to opening a street in the east end of th city, which has been petitioned for. It was suggested that Fifteenth street would be the most convenient. City Assessor Morris reported $552 collected in licenses.

It is the Declaration of Independence for the British. Oppressions of a tyrannical ruler, King John of England, caused an up- rising of the English barons, who drew up this charter and forced the king to sign it at Runnymede, on June 15, 1215. Although the charter was designed to protect the rights of barons and feudal proprietors, and did nothing to help the common people, it was the basis for legislation and court de- cisions in later years that have made England democratic. The first step toward Serbian in- dependence was taken July 8, 1808, when peace was declared ‘between Turkey and Serbia, after a revolution led by Kara George. The people gain. ed partial autonomy under Turkish rule then, but it was the greatest step forward the Serbians had made. The Serbians gradually won com- plete independence from Turkey and then were able to force their rulers to grant them constitu@ional government King Alexander, on May 21, 1894, granted the people the constitution which is still, atmost in its entirety, the foundation for the laws of Serbia. Ten days from today, France will celebrate her Independence day. On July 14, 1789, the people of Paris Russia, hereafter, will celebrate March 16 as her July 4.

D. Gentlemen: I note in your paper of Monday, June 18, 1917, that you have the fol- lowing news, which I wish that you would kindly correct: “Mandan, N. D., June 18.—The high cost of living is blamed for the down- fall of W. J. Curran, cook at the Klon- dike hotel, who is doing time in the local jail after being fined $50 and five days in jail for the theft of a large quantity of meats and other edi- bles from the hotel kitchen.” Now, for your information, I wish to say that I am not a cook and never have been. I am the contractor who is building the buildings at Mandan, and employed one A. Arneson to run a cook camp in the Klondike hotel. This man was under my employment. and he, not I, was arrested and sent. to jail, and it was from me, not the Klondike hotel, that the meats and other edibles were stolen. If you will kindly make a correc- tion of this item I will be very much obliged to you. Yours truly, W. J. CURREN. ATTENTION! WOODMEN.

Dr. Craighead resigned the presi- dency of the University of Montana. to become commissioner of education, nearly two years ago.

The old fort was established by a board of officers convened at Fort Rice, July 22, 1872, with General Crit- the recent educational(survey of North] tenden as president. The site chosen for the fort was part of the land set off as the reservation of Fort McKean. so named in honor of a deceased army officer. Later the name was changed to Fort Abraham Lincoln. The fort itself was built on the point after- ward known as ‘Fort Abraham Lin- coln on the Hill.’ After General Cus- ter made this fort his headquarters it was often calléed ‘‘Custer’s Post.’ The infantry were quartered on tiv hill and the cavalry below.
