Mr. Hughes also ‘plans to prac- | tically tear down the two-story con- crete block structure’ which is now located on Broadway, jus' tof the Olympia cafe building. This was the | first building erected in Bismarck by Mr. Hughes and at that time housed Bismarck’s telephone exchange. The front will be torn away and rebuilt to match the balance of the corner building, and the entire structure will be made fireproof. This building will be 25x27 feet in size, two stor- ie: and full basement, and work will start in April. No announcement has-been made as yet regarding the occupancy of this structure when completed. 177 MISSING IN FLOOD DISTRICT Search Continues for Mor: Bod ies—Unreclaimable Area to Be Burned Los Angelts, March 19.—(AP)— The total loss of life in the St. Fran- cis dam disaster was computed to- day at 449 persons — 272 known death and 177 missing and believed to have perished.

It was the latest of a series of explosions which damaged homes and office buildings and followed within 48 hours a con- fession from a former convict that he had been hired to lead'a “wreck- ing crew” to force employment of union labor. The building, in the 500 block of Holmes street, was used as 2 store-* jhouse by Mike Messino, proprietor jof adjoining hotel of that name. Messina and five members of his family were in the living room of their home when the blast occurred. All were hurled to the floor and suf- ignorance of any possible motive that may have led to a bombing. _xplosions in-various parts of the city over a period of several months have damaged buildings.

She was taken to the hospital last Monday for an abdominal operation. She was thought to be on the road to recovery when she suffered a re- lapse last night from which she did not rally. She was born in Milwaukee in 880. She was a star on the stage for more than 20 years, making her first appearance in vaudeville in New York. The last appearance of Miss Bayes, whose real name was Dora Goldberg, only the day before she entered the hospital was to sing: at two benefits, one for old friends among the poor and one for crippled children. Her voice seemed as strong as ever when her program at the Doyer street mission, in Chinatown, for her old friend “Tom” Noonan, who carries on the rescue work, was broadcast by radio. eThese gallant appearances were typical of her disregard for failing health during the past two years, She is survived by her jhasband, Benjamin L. Friedland, whom she married three years ago on the steamship Leviathan, and by three adopted children. Danced With Wales Prince In_1924 Miss Bayes danced ‘with the Prince of Wales after he had ex- presard great pleasure at the revue 2. which she was then appearing in ‘afternoon pn account of the| funeral of Charles Wachter, member i ad one of wer’s oldest ho- tels.- All of upwards of 100 3 believed st
