BY JOHN G. WELSH, (Commissioner of Public Property.) Bloomington, Ill., Sept. 20.—On the south side of the city of Bloomington, lies Miller Park, one of the city’s beauty spots and its chief recreational center. The park is equipped with a zoo of the best type, a pavilion which has been declared to be one of the! best in the country, a band-stand, playgrounds for the children, picnic grounds with an ample supply of ta- RATES IS.

Attractive Entrance. At the end of the Miller Park car line one is greeted with an attractive entrance and a flight of stone steps leading to the main walk. The visitor | is impressed at once with the beauty | of the place, its large outspread trees, its well kept lawns and artis! . ically arranged flower beds and! progress is being made in the ad- shrubbery.

Nature seems to have| provided this location especially for) such a structure.’ The land in front! of the building slopes gently down to the waters edge. A wide veranda/ex-} tends around the entire, building. On, the south. side, overlooking the lake.| this veranda widens out and assumes, the proportions of a. large balcony. Here one gets a wonderful view of the, lake and the south side of the park.| Just off this balcony is a refresh-| ment room, and in the west end of it, a small museum in which are many} mounted specimens of birds and ani- mals. | A small balcony, large enough to| accommodate an orchestra comfort- ably, is built above the refreshment’ room, and on the floor above is 2/ large dance hall with cloak and dress- | ing rooms, built at the north end. In; the basement, the floor of which is! on the level with the,ground at the south side of the pavilion, are the la-| vatories. | To those interested in aquatic sports one-of the most interesting features is! a bathing beach with its equipment of | appropriate apparatus. Two large) bath houses have been constructed on; the west shore of the lake, with div-| ing platforms, spring boards and lad-| ders. The beach extends around a por- tion of the north shore, and here a; place has been fenced off, so that the little tots, too small to venture in any, but shallow water, may wade. In win-! ter the lake furnishes an admirable, place for skating, and thousands have made good use of the ice for this win ter sport. Asa precaution against ac-, cident, skaters are not allowed on the ice until it reaches a thickness of six| inches. | Large Zoo. i Only a short distance north of the bath houses is the large zoo, or ani-; mal house, a place which is visited; both winter and summer by large) numbers of people. The building was erected only a few years ago. It is! made of brick and stone, with the| cages on the south side arranged so! that in mild weather the doors can be} raised and animals permitted to sun} themselves. Here are housed: Afri- can and Mexican lions, leopards, tapir, llama, porcupine, ostrich, monkeys and birds of many varieties. Other} lines, it was announced. - The joint rate from Crosby to Drake, ‘based on through mileage Crosby to Drake, Great Northern to Minot, thence Soo line, granted at the request of the commission, is fixed at 23% cents per hundred weight, based on through mileage. The original ap- plication for this rate, made to the Interstate Commerce Commission during war-time control, was denied, nd the rate named, effective Oct. 6, was based on the 53 per cent increase ordered by the commission and held up by the supreme court. The action, however, it was stated, will probably furnish the means of se- curing a rate between these two points based upon such rates as may be found reasonable in the future. “This is an adjustment taking out discrimination between the several carriers locally, within the state by the commission, which, if not hamp- ered and tied up by political propa- gandists that would rather use the police powers for their own personal ambition rather than to leave the jurisdiction within the powers of the board of railroad commissioners so invested by constitutional acts to be worked out and adjusted as commis- sions warrant, may accomplish much for the state,” said C. F. Dupuis, act- ing chairman. Members of the board of railroad commissioners were in conference to- day, and were expected to take action on the rate question. One of the sub- ects before the commission was in- formation that the Interstate Com- merce Commission has set for October 4 in Minnesota a hearing on the ques- tion of whether the Minnesota state rates are discriminatory as against, interstate commerce. The commission also conducted a hearing on the question of increased telephone rates for Hazen, N. D. Richardson represented the telephone company. No one represented the city of Hazen. The testimony was taken before V. E. Smart, rate expert of the commission, Commissioner and Frank Milhollan, in charge of the tele- phone division. \ FIND HEADLESS WOMEN IN GROVE Cincinnati, Sept. 20.—The list of missing women is being followed up | | attractions at the zoo are many var-|by the police today in consequence jeties of bear, two species of deer, buf-| falo, elk, angora goats, etc. At the south side of the lake are about twenty acres of original forest, with drives built through it. This op- ens on a highway along which is 2 blazed trail, and the coming season the park officials plan to build an archway, with the word. “Welcome” at the entrance, and to construct ovens so that automobile tourists may find a haven of rest where they may prepare their meals and camp for the night. Like other public parks, Miller! Park has a certain amount of revenue from its various concessions and at- tractions. This accrues from boatins, bathing, fishing, dancing and electric piano, refreshment concessions and miscellaneous sales which include dis- posal of various salvaged articles. This matter of revenue furnishes an- other concrete evidence of the growing (Continued on Page Three) of the finding yesterday of a headless and limbless body of a woman in a thicket at North Bend, a suburb. DUNN COUNTY F. FIGHTS § R TRUST BY RAISING PRODUCT Dickinson, Sept. 20.—That sugar beets can be successfully grown in western North Dakota has been dem- onstrated by John Manifold, a farm- er living near Dunn Center. Mr. } ifold secured some Seed last spring and devoted a part of his vegetable garden to trying out the experiment and is highly gratified with the re- sults. He will harvest several hundred pounds of beets which have attained an average weight of five pounds and will refine the crop for his own use after a method recommended by the extension division of the Agricultural college.

LOCKED IN ICE IN FAR NORTH Fear for Safety of Amundsen Is Expressed Following Re- port of Plight Seattle, Sept. 20.—Captain Roald Amundsen, whose polar expediti ship, The Maud, is wedged in the ice twenty miles off Cape Serge on the Siberian coast, is in danger of losing his vessel and. may be forced to aban- don his attempt to reach the pole, according to Dr. Jas. H. Condit, su- perintendent of Presbyterian missions in Alaska, who arrived here on. the steamer Victoria from Nome, Alaska Dr. Condit said word was received of the plight of the Maud just as the Victoria sailed from Nome and that the residents of that city are greatly concerned over the fate of the ex- plorer. The vessel is tightly wedged between ice floes and the rock bound Siberian coast and is in grave dan- ger of being ground to pieces, Dr. Sondit said. The first news of the Maud was brought to Nome by a fish- ing vessel. On leaving Nome, in July, Amund- sen sailed into the Arctic sea. North- westerly winds which have prevailed during the summer carried the great Arctic ice floes to the east coast of Sibetia and the Maud was caught in ice pack, according to information re- ceived at Nome. Dr. Condit spent considerable time with. Captain. Amundsen, while the explorer was at Nome. “Amundsen is gray but in ‘excel- lent physical. condition,” said the doctor. He was rugged and optimis- tic. When he left Nome enroute to Wrangell Island to pick up the arctic current which he hoped would him to fhe pole, he had five years provisions on the Maud. He has 4 crew of four men and a few Eski- mos.” ELECTION PROBE 10 BE REOPENED Washington, Sept. 20—investigation of campaign expenditures will be re- opened here Wednesday by the senate election’s sub-committee, it was an- nounced at the office of Senator Ken- yon, chairman of the committee.

Investigation, according to the prose- cution, showed that 5,000. dead men were recorded as voting for one of the three while the other two-con- tented themselves with a like num- ber of imaginary supporters between them. The voting lists were prepared by the judges. It has been found that production can be increased by the elimination of noises in a factory. } ROR MILLIONS ‘morning, according to a bulletin is-| IRISH FREEDOM INNEAR FUTURE WSWINEY SAYS Issues Message “To Irishmen All Over World” Saying He’s Glad to Die for Country 39TH DAY OF ‘STRIKE’ Lord Mayor Weaker But Still Conscious Says Bulletin Is- sued on Condition London, Sept. 20~~'Terence Mac- Swiney, Lord Mayor of Cork, had 2 bad night and was very weak this. sued by the Irish self-determination league. MacSwiney today bagan the 39th day of his jiunger strike. Lord Mayor MacSwiney last night wrote a message to Irishmen through out the world on behalf of himself and the hunger strikers in Cork jail. After thanking them for their sym- pathy and prayers the Lord Mayor , according to the London Times: Feel Privileged i “If this cold-blooded murder is} pushed through it will leave a stain on the, name of England which has no parallel (even in her history) and which nothing will even efface. It will rise before the English people} whenever they offer another people! friendship. “We feel singularly priv-| ileged in being made instruments of} God in evoking such world-wide ad-j miration and support for the cause of; Irish independence and recognition of | the Irish republic. If we are going to die we are called to that even greater happiness of entering the com-) pany of those who died for Ireland. Fight With Clean Hearts “We forgive fll those who are com-j passing our death. This battle is be-} ing fought with clean hearts purely} for our country, we have made our \peace with God and bare ill will tos| ward no man.” After invoking God's blessing upon all who prayed for the prisoners Mac- Swiney concluded by saying: “Ll. believe~God hing over| our country and by his divine decree; her resurrection is at hand.

Alex McDougall against the Oliver) Iron Minning company (United States, Steel corporation) began in federal| court here today before Judge Wil-| bur Booth, of St. Paul.

GRANT COUNTY PAPERS SELECT PRESS TO OPPOSE TOWNLEY’S PRESS, Shields, Sept. 20—At a recent meet- ing of the independent newspaper ed-| itors of Grant county the coming} newspaper election was discussed. It was decided unanimously that only one newspaper should oppose the Townley organ at the November elec- tion. | It was decided to draw straws and! the lucky one was to have the com-| bined support of the others. It was also agreed that the newspaper that won, if elected, would furnish the oth- ers with the commissioners proceec- ings at a minimum rate. The Carson Press won out and will go on the ballot in opposition to the Townley kept sheet. The Press is the oldest newspaper in Grant county, and is ably and fear- lessly edited by J. C.

Y., Sept. 20.—Interest in the housing shortage which the leg- islature has been called to consider was subordinated as to wha tion if any the assembly would take to the five socialists re-elected last week to the assembly. Louis Waldman and August Clae- sens, of New York, Samuel A. Dewitt and Samuel Orr, of the Bronx, and Charles Solomo, of Kings, were found guilty of charges of disloyalty last April. Some members of the as- sembly who voted to unseat the so- cialists have let is be known that they had not changed their views,| notwithstanding the re-election of the quintet. Some, it is said, are prepared to offer resolutions tonight to deny again i i \ i gress did in the case of Victor L. Berger, socialist elected from Wiscon- son and ‘re-elected after he had been prohibited from taking their seat. Hold Ht Continuing Body These assemblymen held that the legislature is a continuing body and the term of the legislativé assembly which expelled the socialists does not expire till January 1. They hold that notwithstanding the fact the men were re-elected they are not entitled seats any more now than they did the day after they were unseated. Attorney General's Opinion In respect to the stand of some of} some of the assemblymen that the) socialists have no right to the seats, Attorney General Nugent said: “These men were expelled from the assembly because they were members of the party which during the trial was found to be disfoyal and opposed to our form of government. Since the trial I understood the socialists | have eliminated or amended the un- American clauses of their constitu- tion.” HEAVIEST RAIN INSTATEFALLS | AT DEVILS LAKE Devils Lake received a heavy rain- fall over Sunday, according to reports to the weather ‘bureau here today. everal other points in the state re- eived heavy downpours.

VOTES FOR AGENT Dickinson, Sept. 20.—That the resi- {dents of Dunn county want extension work carried on there is the opinion of the county commissioners, who, at a recent meeting, voted to secure the services of Paul Busenbark as county gent to begin work October 1. Mr, Busenbark was county agent in Dunn county for more than a year, resign- ing last April to accept a position as manager of the W. L. Richards ranch near Killdeer.
