Com- missioner Battey too the: initiative ‘in’ the matter on the grounds that this would be the only: feasible solu- tion of the problem of handling’ cases of contagious diseases. _ The city maintains its own’ deten- tion hospital now, ‘but it is only a makeshift, and-one of expense, the commission contends, and that the ultimate’ ‘solution’ is an’ institution owned jointly, by the city and county. Lack of water at’ the city detention hospital. renders the service poor as every drop of water used must be hauled to-the premises. _ It was de- cided last evening ‘to advertise for bids on a well which will give the in- stitutions its greatest need, an abun- dance of water. Just what the sentiments of the county board will be-are not known, but Commisstoner Kirk’ will place the entire proposition before the board. ‘How to divide equities. in the city and county barn which ‘the Northern Pacific has ordered off its right-of- way is still und cided.” B. G. Patter- son, member of the’ hoard',of county commissioners, on béhalf-of the board offered to purchase the city’s inter- est for $300. The city rejected the offer holding to its original request of $400. Commissioner ‘Kirk was del- egated to appear ‘before the board and offer to buy the county’s inter- est or sell at the original offer. In case a settlement cannot be reached the city and county will continue to use the property jointly. Grambs & Peet were awarded the contract for a sanitary sewer on First street. The only other bidder was the Haggart Construction com- pany. Alex Haggart, representing. the ‘Haggart Construction company, ap- peared''before the commission, and requested settlement of the com- pany’s claim against the city for san- itary sewer in the east end of town. Some one left a manhole open and allowed storm water to enter which flooded the motor on the sewer lift. The company takes the position that it is not responsible for the damage. It is likely that the matter will be litigated. Some of the commission- ers’ were inclined to believe that the damage was the result of an act of vandalism over which the company had no control.

Miss Pickford had been runting up and down. the sea-washed deck, get- ting real water all over her and fran- tically: crying for help as she felt the frail craft sinking beneath her. As the water got up to her knees and the cameras Kept on clicking, she cour- ageously emulated the example of the boy who stood on the burning deck, until Maurice Tourneur, the director, arrived in a-motor boat and lifted her to safety. ‘With her teeth chaftering from thé morning bath and still feel- ing a little creepy after the sensation, she took her director to a corner of the cabin and whispered: “If we are going to have any more pictures like this, |’m going to learn how to swim.” PEACE SOCIETIES ORDER MEMBERS TO BAN PICTURE Peace societies throughout the country have issued a warning to their members that they must not at- tend theatres during the performance of “Womanhood, the Glory of the Na- tion,” the big preparedness picture at present being presented at the Grand theatre in this city. The agi- tation of the anti-war; anti-prepared- ness advocates was started in New York several days ago when they caused to -be inserted in the New York Herald a personal reading: “Warning—All members of Emergency Peace Federation are warned to remain away from the Broadway theatre during the run of ‘Womanhoon’ to avoid trouble with war advocates.” - The newspaner advertisement and fight on the great preparedness spec- tacle was inaugurated after a private | some ot was given for the benefit of the some of the leading members of the various peace bodies many of which are said t6 be in the cohtrol of per- sons not over friendly or loyal to the United States. ‘A result of the screening of the realistic picture which shows what would happen to the United States if unprepared and attacked by a strong foreign foe; was that several of the peace advocates changed front and became the strong- est kind of preparedness supporters.

VETERAN PRIEST PASSES ANAT A CAL HOSPITAL Father Martin, for Many Years Head of Indian School, Dies at St. Alexius Hundreds of friends throughout the two Dakotas will learn with sorrow of the death of Rev. Father Martin Kenel, who passed away last night, at he had served as chaplain to the Ben-} edictine sisters, Father Martin ‘was one of the Dakota’s oldest missionary! preists engaged in Indian work: From! October, 1884, until 1906 he’ served ; efficiently as superintendent of the Kenel Indian school, named in his honor, in South Dakotd. His influ- ence among his Indian friends was notable, and hundreds of his former pupils, grown to manhood and wom- anhood, will mourn his passing. The Rev. Martin Kenel was born in ‘Arch, Switzerland, on June 4, 1854. He studied classics and philos- ophy at Einsideln, the most famous (Benedictine monastery in Switzer- land, preparing himself for the priest- hood to which he was ordained at Conception, Mo., September 29, 1877, four years after his arrival in this country. Seven years after his or- dination he éntered upon his life work with the Indians of the then southern portion of Dakota territory, in which he remained until 11 years ago. He had served seven years as chaplain at St. Alexius, where his kindly gentle spirit had won for him friends all with ‘whom he came in contact. The remains will be taken east on No, 8 this afternoon to Conception, iMo.,-where the last rites will be held Thursday morning. Rev. Father Bernard Strassmaier of Fort Yxies will accompany the body. MERCER COUNTY BOARD TO CONSIST OF FOUR Because Mercer county is so bloom- in’ healthy that physicians are few ‘and far between, it will havé the dis- tinction of possessing one of the few local exemption boards in North Da- kota with a membership of four, in- stead of the standard three. Sheriff William M. Haevisher and County Au- ditor Carl Semmler came down from ‘Stanton today to see the governor about their exemption board. Dr. C. C. Smith, Mercer county physician, is ineligible for service on the board be- cause he is himself liable to draft. But, there is no'other physician avail- ablein Mercer conty, and if Dr. Smith were not allowed to serve, the board would ‘be under the necessity of im- porting a medico from Bismarck. Therefore matters were fixed up by the appointment of County Judge Sagehorn to be the third official mem- ber of the exemption board, while Dr. ‘Smith is retained as medical exam- iner. Sheriff Haevisher is still a trifle sore from a harrowing experience which he underwent while scurrying about Mercer county in his Henry pre- paring for registration, the first of June. It was iate‘at night, the sheriff had been driving all day, and he thoughtlessly: gave his Henry his head. The car immediately started up the side of a gravelly cliff, and when the sheriff awoke the car was on top of him, he was saturated with gasoline from the tank, and his prestolights were blazing merrily, aching for @ chance at the gasoline. After an hour’s struggle, handicapped by three bent ribs, he tossed the car from him, ex- tinguished the lights and dragged himself to the home ‘of a neighbor for ‘first ald treatment.

It was not read three several times and there was no third reading on the passage of the bill. 4.
