An estimate was _ SAYS INVESTIGATOR Miss Mary Cashel Points to Big Costs of Grand Forks Farm as Wrong Way SEWER JOBS CONSIDERED Placing of Pipe on Front Avenue to Avoid Damage to Prop- erties Taken Up i | 1 ! Municipal poor relief was brought { before the city commission by Miss | Mary Cashel, official social worker, at | Monday evening's session, and it was | shown that she had dispensed: $5,905.78 during the year. It wasj thought possible that this item of | municipal activity might require | about $8,000 for the ensuing year. | Miss Cashel's tabulation showed $1,328.33 applied to the relief of fam- | ilies during the year, $3.133.61 to the; relief of children, $759.45 in emer- | gency help to families, transients, | $57.09, special, $625, total $5.905.78. 1 Some of the transient relief, the | smallest item of the report, Miss | Cashel said, was spent to enable| strangers to move on and avoid the expense of them becoming a charge | on the city. She said taking care of old people in the present way was proving cheaper than maintaining a poor farm. She arrived at this conclusion by a comparison of local conditions with those at Grand Forks. There, she said, poor farm relief is running into thousands of dollars. Here, she said, the needs of relief re growing faster than the city. It is for that reason that the municipal- ity must set aside a larger fund in the budget each year. Storm Sewer Considered ‘The commission took up the matter of placing a storm sewer on Front avenue between Fifth and Sixth s submitted, showing that the cost of installing a 24-inch pipe with a manhole and eatch basin would be about $800. No action was taken. Estimates and specifications, show- ing that the cost of placing a water main on Nineteenth strect between ‘Thayer and Rosser avenues would be $816.20, were approved and authority to advertise for bids was voted. Sidewalk Requests The bond of Frank G. Grambs, to cover the placing of a storm sewer in Gilman alley, was approved. A of A. C. Harke for a side- walk in the 900 block of Eighth street, and of Dan Hall for one and a drive- ‘way on the east side at Rosser and streets were approved. Mrs. Mary E. Owens asked for an extension of Avenue B to Twenty- third street and the petition was filed. A bid by Emma Falconer, of $400 for two lots in block 62, McKenzie and Coffin addition, on which there are Gelinquent taxes of $2,341.38, was re- Jected. So also was a bid of $75 from Mrs. Anne Knauss for lots 17-19 in- clusive at Ninth and Avenue D. ‘The weighmaster reported an in- come in June of $93.30. M. H.

Her effort is the more significant when one realizes that her oral screen debut in this city will be as the heroine of “Coquette,” Broad- way's most eloctrifying dramatic suc- cess of the past season. “Coquette” was directed by Sam Taylor, who also directed Miss Pick- ford’s previous production, “My Best Girl.” small town coquctte in this famously emotional drama.

CAPITOL THEATRE “Speakeasy,” the most convinciny dialogue picture yet to reach the screen, is on view at the Capitol the- atre. It is a story of New York, filmed in New York, acted by a cast of thoroughly competent stage play- ers and is so realistic one leaves the theatre with the thought of having just returned from a journey. to the great metropolis. Aside from the brilliant perfoym- ances given by the players, and each one is effective in his respective role, this all-dialogue Fox-Movietone Photoplay is filled with numerous in- spiring “shots” which keep the on- looker in a prolonged gasp of aston- ishment. If you can imagine the thrill of watching and hearing a crowd of some twenty thousand enthusiastic boxing fans “hitting on all six” in the famous Madison Square Garden, or watching and hearing New York sub- way trains thunder and boom in and out of stations, or watch and listen to the great crowd of people in the Grand Central terminal in New York without having seen and heard them: before then you need never attend another motion picture show—you can sit home and imagine them.

Davis, lone legislator in the fight to remove the gag. Davis, a locomotive engineer, who said his only interest in the affair was to maintain free press, is hope- ful that the state courts will elimi- nate the “gag” statute. The railroad man said the gag law was dangerous to a democracy where “uncolored information is s0 vital in giving voters an intelligent idea of what is going on.” VALUABLE DOLL HOUSE London, July 2.—Possibly the most valuable doll house in the world is for {Sale here.

Newman, federal agricultural statis- tician for North Dakota. This decrease, following decreases in both the 1928 spring and fall pig crops, indicates a material contrac- tion in the hog industry for the state. ‘That the low peint has probably been reached, however, is shown by inten- ions of North Dakota farmers to In other years, however, the num- ‘ver of sows actually bred has always been below breeding intentions. If the relationship between breeding in- tentions and actual farrowingsds sim. ilar to the average of previous yea for which this survey has been made, , the number of sows actually to far- | row this fall will be about 50 per cent greater than for the fall of 1928 The | number of sows farrowed this spring | is 98.3 per cent of the number last i spring. The average number of pigs saved per litter is 5.5 compared with 5.8 for the spring of 1928. For the United States, an eight per cent decrease in the spring pig crop from that of 1928 is indicated. This decrease is equivalent to about 4,- 300,000 pigs. A decrease of 6 per cent for the corn belt states is equivalent to about 2,500,000 pigs. Such a de- crease indicates that the spring pig crop in the corn belt is the smallest since 1925. Sows farrowing this spring ‘as compared with last show decreases of 10 and 8 per cent, respectively for the United States and the corn belt states. This is a somewhat larger decrease than was forecast by the De- cember pig survey. Sows bred or to be bred for fall farrowings in the United States about equal the number far- rowed last fall, if the usual spread between intentions and actual far- rowings occurs. Factors affecting changes in the number of sows kept for farrow in the fall such as hog prices, supplies and prices of corn and the corn-hog ratio, point to some increase in fall farrowings in the corn belt, but de- creases in most other areas. Exploring With Plane Planned by MacMillan Boston, July 2—()—Aerial explora- tion beyond the Arctic circle is Planned by Comm. Donald B. Mac- Millan for this summer. Commander MacMillan sailed on his twelfth exploration trip into the Arctic with 11 men. His ship Bow- doin left Wiscasset, Me., June 22. The schooner will be used as a mother ship, he says, for a -tri-m tored cabin airplane now under con- struction. “During the summer I am planning to make an aerial survey of Labra- dor and Baffin’s land,” he said. “I am certain that a great deal more can be accomplished in one summer season with a plane thap in several years with a ship.” If he uses an airplane, Commander MacMillan expects to complete the exploration within a period of three months, returning to the United States in September.

Peterson's younger brother had been sentenced to hang for rob- bery by a mincrs’ trial. Peterson, defying the mob, locks his brother into the Two Brothers mine and demands that the hanging be de- layed until morning. “Jerry,” the brother, admits stealing Joe Lun- © dy’s gold and Peterson foresees in Lundy’s invitation to play poker come ghastly , probably a gamble for the life of “Jerry.” Desperate, Alex accepts.

Lundy’s eyes were hostile, but the look of com- plete understanding in them was more evident than ever. Lundy leaned back. “Let's get at it, then.’ “Dad couldn’t mistake his meaning. Lundy didn’t look at either Richey or MacCoy. Dad, of course, had long since realized that they were as un- related to the issues of the game as the wax figures ‘Lundy had confis- cated two weeks before. “MacCoy cut and Lundy laid down five cards to each. Dad had three queens, a trey, an ace. He had a feeling that the game was coming to a head. His eyes leaped to Lun- dy’s, then dropped to his cards again. Richey discarded three, dad the ace and the trey, MacCoy three. ‘Standin' eh?’ MacCoy whis- pered. “‘I reckon these'll do me,’ Lundy's voice shook. “Dad drew the two cards towards him, wondering what was Lundy's pat hand? The chances favored a full house. A flush was likely, but not to be feared. A straight flush was mighty rare. “And then dad slipped the index corner of his draw carefully into sight and his heart stopped dead for a second. The fourth queen was star- ing up at him! He had a hand that was within two of being unbeatable! ‘With the aces broken, only four kings and a straight flush could stop him. Standing pat wasn’t an indication of fours and it wasn’t likely Lundy had | and that rare bird, a straight flush. No, dad argued, Lundy's pat hand was either a lower hand or a bluff.
