D., Nov. 25.—(?)—With clear, cold weather prevailing, eastern North Dakota and western Minnesota ‘Wednesday began clearing highways choked Tuesday by a blinding snow- storm. Three plows were working out of Fargo Wednesday morning, with re- ports other cities in the eastern half of the state also had sent out road clearing machinery. Plows were working a short distance north of here on Highway 81 to Grand Forks, and indications were the highway would be cleared to Hillsboro by noon. Grand Forks also had sent out a plow on the highway, and reported the road clear nearly to Hillsboro. Minnesota Highway 6 to Brecken- ridge, Minn., used by busses going to Sioux Falls, 8. D., was reported open. Crookston busses left here and in- dications were they would be able to get through. Another plow was working on North Dakota No. 10 west to Valley City, and that city is sending a plow east. Valley City is also sending a plow west on No. 10 to Jamestown, and Bismarck some time Wednesday will start a plow east on the same high- way towards Jamestown. Reports to the Greater North Da- kota association here said No. 6 north of Bismarck is open as far as Max. No. 6 south of Bismarck is passable, ‘nd No. 10 west of Bismarck is clear. Fargo last night had its coldest weather of the season, the mercury sinking to four degrees above zero. ‘Temperatures were rising rapidly ‘Wednesday. Snow on the ground here totals seven inches, with possibility of more falling on Thanksgiving day. Warm- er weather is predicted Wednesday night and Thursday. T. G. Plomasen, maintenance engi- neer for the state highway depart- ment here, said Highway No. 10, is blocked by snow from east of Steele to the Minnesota border. “If weather is favorable, he said, the road could be cleared by Wednesday afternoon. Russian thistles, which have blown into snow fences, have created @ dif- ficult situation, Plomasen said. The ‘thistles have closed the openings in many fences and caused snow to drift. on the roads. Plomasen said that because of the plentiful growth of the thistles, snow removal crews will be confronted with more work for the entire winter. Clear weather was general over the state Wednesday, and moderate winds ‘prevailed in most sections, assuring favorable weather for snow removal work. Temperatures neared the zero mark during the night, with three above reported. from Valley City, four at Fargo and six at Jamestown. Seven was the minimum here. In north- western North Dakota, Williston re- ported 16 above, while at Minot it was 15 above. Jamestown, Valley City and Devils Lake were digging themselves out of the snowdrifts, unemployed men be- ing given preference in the work. Roads in the Grand Forks area were being cleared Wednesday morn- ing. ~ After enjoying unusually warm weather in a “second summer” the cold wave had swept into the middle west Wednesday and . temperatures dropped. ‘ A vagary of the weather was of- fered by a comparison between Ari- zona and Alaska. At Flagstaff zero ‘was reported while Juneau's mini- mum was 30 above zero. California fruit growers were tend- ing fires. to protect citrus crops while at Brawley losses to vegetable grow- ers were placed at from 75 to 95 per cent. A freeze Tuesday terminated the longest growing season in the history of the Ozark mountains. Nat- ives there had been picking a second crop of raspberries. Among the deaths attributed to the weather was that of Norman W. Pot- ter, 36-year-old air mail pilot whose body. was found in his wrecked plane west of Salt Lake City yesterday. He crashed in a blizzard. Charles Meity, 80, froze to death near Watersonville, Calif. -TOM MIX Los Angeles, Nov. 25.—(#)—Ameri- jea’s boydom hero, Tom Mix, who at various times in his career has been @ cowboy of real life, of the screen and of the circus, was near death ‘Wednesday. Beset by peritonitis which followed the rupture of his appendix, Mix spent a fairly comfortable night, but his physician reported it will be three or four days before the crisis is past. FARMER APPARENTLY | | 1 ‘ AND INJURES WIFE Tells Hettinger County Officials Acts Done During Fit of Madness (Tribune Special Service) Mott, N. D., Nov. 25—Apparently the victim of a short fit of insanity, Rollie Schaff, farmer living north of Burt, struck his wife with a shotgun and shot one of his sons in the elbow and hip Tuesday, according to Het- tinger county officials. Mrs. Schaff and her 19-year-old son, Mike, are not in serious condi- tion. They are recovering in a Dick- inson hospital. Schaff is in the Mott jail awaiting foymal charges. Apparently penitent, he said he is ready to take the pen- alty for his action. y Following an altercation with his wife, Schaff seized a shot gun and his wife, endeavoring to disarm 5 struggled with him. During the tus- sle, the gun was discharged, tearing a hole in the floor. Wrenching the gun from his wife’s grip, Schaff struck her over the head with the firearm. - Two sons working in the yard heard the gun’s discharge and rushed into the house. Mike jumped on the man in an effort to get of gun, but the father broke away. As Mike fled, his father fired at him, the shot striking the youth in the el- aye and hip from a distance of about feet. Rushing into the bedroom to re- load the gun, Schaff found the shells he had were too large and soon he regained his composure and realized what he had done, he told officials. When the sons reappeared he told them to throw the gun in a pond where no one could get it, and direct- ed them to take Mrs. Schaff and Mike to Mott for medical attention. He also asked them to send the sher- iff out after him. ‘After being given first aid treat- ment at Mott, Mrs. Schaff and her son were taken to Dickinson. Sheriff Arthur Espeland Mott when the latter came to arrest him. Mr. and Mrs. Schaff have been married 32 years and have five sons, ranging in age from eight to 21 years, Says Introductions ‘ | Lost on Public Men —_—_—_—_* Ann Arbor, Mich., Nov. 25.—(?) —Stewart H.

LEAGUE COUNCIL IS BELIEVED MOVING TOWARD AGREEMENT Additional Fighting Reported in Far East; 4 Japs, 60 Chinese Killed (By The Associated Press) Indications that the nations rep- council meeting in Paris were mov- {of action were received by from Ambassador Dawes. The council authorized sending a telegram to the governments at Tokyo and Nanking, warning them against any military activity in the region of Chinchow, Manchuria, where a con- flict appeared imminent. Representatives of small nations in the League of Nations council were reliably reported Wednesday to have assumed the role of champions of China in the Manchurian delibera- tions. Spokesmen for certain smaller countries, which were not identified, were said to have accused the big powers of letting the League coven- ant go to pieces by their unwilling- ness to exercise the coercive measures it provides for. Japanese forces in Manchuria, dis- tributed over a wide area, include naval vessels at Chinwangtao, troops at Mukden moving south, inactive troops in the Anganchi-Tsitsihar sec- tor, and marine detachments which Chinese dispatches reported en route from Chinwangtao to Shanhaikwan. Sinminfu Is Captured Peiping received reports Japanese had capture Sinminfu (Hsinmintun) 50 miles west of Mukden. Washington reported the United States is prepared to support a neu- tral commission of inquiry in Man- churia without consideration of ques- tion of Japanese evacuation. Paris advices said smaller powers on the league council were reported to be championing China to preserve the league covenant as a bulwark against aggression. % Mukden—Official reports said 60, Chinese and four Japanese were kill- ed in a battle at Kaotsishan Tues- day when two Japanese companies routed 350 Chinese troops. Tokyo—The Japanese government instructed its representative in Paris to accept the league’s council's peace formula except for a reservation on “such military measures as may be required for the protection of Japan ese lives and property from bandits and. other lawless elements.” Students In Riot Shanghai—More than eight thou- sand students joined a riot demand- ing a declaration of war against Japan.

Opening the annual drive for the sale of Christmas seals, 40 women will begin a solicitation throughout the business district. Booths for the sale of the little health stamps will be es- tablished in the Post office and the Prince, Pat- terson and Grand Pacific Hotels. Money from the seal sale will be used in promoting children’s health work here and a part also will be used to help support the work of Camp Grassick on Lake Isabel, where hun- dreds of children go for their health during the summer. Ninety-five per cept of the money obtained through seal sales will rémain in the state and will be spent here, according to Dr. Fannie Dunn Quain, president of the ov Dakota Tuberculosis Associa- ion. Simultaneously, the Boy Scouts of the city will begin the work of col- lecting toys for distribution in the American Legion’s “Open Your Heart” campaign. On Friday and Saturday they expect to knock at every door in the city and all per- sons having toys to donate are asked to have them 'ready. Toys which are broken or in disrepair are acceptable, as arrangements have been made for them to be repaired by prisoners at the state penitentiary. Warden C. C. Turner Wednesday asked Milton Rue, director of the vet- erans’ campaign, to provide as much of this work as quickly as possible in order that the prisoners might have time to complete it before Christmas. Response Is Good Initial response to the campaign, begun Tuesday, has been excellent, Rue said, and many donations already have been offered. Included were sev- eral contributions of money by per- sons from out of the city. “Open Your Heart” headquarters will open No- vember 30 in the rooms formerly oc- cupied by the Association of Com- merce, Rue said, but the Legion may move in earlier to begin the accept- ance of goods. ‘An important phase of the activity financed by the Christmas Seal Sale was explained Wednesday by Miss Esther Teichmann, school nurse. This is the work whereby children in the sixth grade and below in the city's schools are supplied with milk at re- cess time. Milk is given to all chil- dren at recess time and those who can pay for it do so. Those without the money are given milk free and the children have no means of know- ing who pays and who doesn't. If a child is more than five pounds underweight, he is given milk at the afternoon recess also. ‘The effect on the general health of the juvenile population is marked, Miss Teichmann said, since some chil- dren apparently receive no milk oth- er than what they get at school. Many a child, she says, has only cof- fee and bread for breakfast and un- less such diets are properly supple- mented ill health is sure to result. The milk is purchased wholesale in half (Continued on pege eight) i Ann Arbor, Mich., Nov. 25.—(?) —Of the 26 known moons in the sun's family, our own is the only thoroughly decorous one with no jazz motions in space in annual flight around the sun. This “unique” absence of the modern tempo was reported Wed- nesday by R. M. Petrie of the University of Michigan, in a ma- thematical treatise. His calcula- tions show our moon “is in a class of its own.” All moons have two motions, one their orbits around their planets, and the other the courses in space which they describe while being dragged around the sun by their respective worlds. Analyzing the resulting path of our satellite, Petrie finds it is al- ways concave with respect to the sun. In a diagram the moon's annual course would look like the curvature of an egg shell, with the a Of 26 Known Moons Earth's Is Only z One to Escape Planetary Jazz Motions yolk representing the sun. Any section of this path whatever would be curved away from the sun, like any fragment broken from the egg shell. All other moons do anything from mild aeroplane-like glides toward the sun, to real nose dives and even loop-the-loops. Callis- tro, one of Jupiter's satellites, makes a big loop shaped like writing in space a gigantic scrip letter “E.” All the other moons belong to planets farther from the sun than earth, The other moons are distribut- ed as follows: To mars two, to Jupiter and to Saturn nine each, to Uranus four and to Neptune one. Venus, Mercury and Pluto alone have no known moons. Pluto is so distant that if it has a thoon present telescopes are not sufficiently powerful to detect it. \ FUNERAL PLANS FOR ROBERT BODENSTAB REMAIN INDEFINITE Last Rites Probably Will Be Held Friday; Interment Is Planned Here DEATH WAS INSTANTANEOUS Bismarck Youth Killed Monday Evening When Truck He Drove Overturned Funeral arrangements for Robert W. Bodenstab, 23-year-old Bismarck youth who was instantly killed when the truck he was driving overturned north of Sentinel Butte early Monday evening, remained indefinite Wednes- day afternoon. He was the only son of Dr. and Mrs, W. H. Bodenstab, 520 Mandan avenue, residents of Bismarck for many years. Rites probably will be held Friday, Mrs. Bodenstab said, with Rev. D. Pierce-Jones, rector of St. George's Episcopal church, in charge. Definite arrangements will not be made until Dr. Bodenstab returns to Bismarck this evening from Beach with the body. Dr. Bodenstab left with Dr. V. J. LaRose for Beach ‘Tuesday evening. Burial at St. Mary's Where the last rites will be con- ducted has not been decided. The services probably will be held from Webb's Funeral Parlors or one of the churches im the city. Burial probably will be made in St. Mary's cemetery here. An uncle of the youth, H. H. Bod- enstab, is expected to arrive in Bis- marck Thursday from Milwaukee, Wis., to attend the rites. Bodenstab apparently was killed about 7 o'clock Monday evening. He had driven to Sentinel Butte that af- ternoon to get a load of lumber, which he was to take to his father’s sheep ranch, north of Sentinel Butte and Medora. Leaving Sentinel Butte about 6:30 Pp. m, gith the load of lumber, he had gone only eight miles when the acci- dent occurred. Officials Inform Family H. L. Rice and W. R. Schell, Golden Valley county coroner and state's at- torney, respectively, were called to the accident scene as soon as the wreck was discovered. They gave no apparent cause of the accident in a telegram to the family. Rice said an injury to the chest probably caused death instantly. When found, one of Bodenstab’s legs was pinned under the machine. The wreck was discovered Tuesday forenoon by a rural mail carrier and Officials were notified. The Boden- stab family here was informed of the tragedy shortly after 2 o'clock Tues- day afternoon. Bodenstab had been working on his father’s sheep ranch for several weeks. He made occasional trips to Bismarck on week-ends, and only a short time ago had accompanied his tAnes, on a prairie chicken hunting rip. Was Born in Bismarck Robert W. Bodenstab was born in Bismarck May 24, 1908. He was edu- cated in Bismarck’s public schools and later attended the University of North Dakota, the North Dakota Agricultural college, and the Univer- sity of Michigan. For several months following his return from school, he was employed at Great Falls, Mont., where he was ill for some time with pneumonia. Several months ago he returned to Bismarck from Winnipeg, Man., Can- ada, where he had completed an avi- ation course. He was an airplane pilot with several hours of solo fly- ing experience and last Christmas piloted a plane from Winnipeg to Bis- marck and back. Scores of friends of the young man called at the Bodenstab home Tues- day afternoon and evening to visit members of the bereaved family. Bodenstab had a wide circle of friends. He leaves his parents and a sister, Kathryn A.

Taylor, one of the few Republicans ever to hold office as governor of Tennessee, who died Tuesday at Johnson City. FORMER GOVERNOR OF TENNESSEE IS DEAD AT AGE OF 83 Alfred ©. Taylor, Republican, Was Colorful Figure in Southern Politics Johnson City, Tenn., Nov. 25.—(P) —Former Governor Alfred A. Taylor, 83, for years one of the most color- ful figures in Tennessee politics, died here early Wednesday. The old political leader's two sons, Frank and Blaine Taylor, were with him when the end came. Among the few Republicans to be! elected governor of that state, he did not attain the office until 34 years after the famous “brother vs. broth- er” contest of 1886, in which he op- posed his brother, the late United States Senator Robert L. Taylor. That contest for the governorship) of Tennessee, which came to be call- ed “The War of Roses,” held the at- tention of the country throughout the campaign. The two brothers campaigned to- gether. Alf, as he was familiarly known throughout his life, was the Republican candidate and during the campaign wore a red rose in the lapel of his coat, Robert, the Demo- cratic candidate, countered by wear- ing a white rose. Despite the fact that they differed Politically, the two brothers conduct- ed themselves ,so gallantly toward each other that they became the in- spiration for a number of books and lectures. Speaking from the same) platform, they referred to each other, in terms of brotherly affection, but assailed each other's issues vigor- ously. Robert, the Democrat, was elected, and later represented his state in the upper house of congress. Three years later Alf, the Repub- lican, was elected to the 5Sist con- gress and was reelected to the 52nd and 53rd congresses. The succeeding years with consistent Democratic successes in state elections failed to} lessen his hope that some day he would be governor of his state. The situation in 1920 appeared to him as the opportune time. He had reached the age of 72 and his candidacy was opposed by some on the grounds that he was too old to make the campaign. Alf Taylor’s vigorous spirit was ‘roused by such opposition. He was famous in Tennessee as a fox-hunter and it was a story of the chase he) Scatter” Benzon, son of Rev. Benzon. used to reply to his political oppon- ents. On a fox hunt Taylor entered in the pack his aged dog “Old Limber.” For a long time after the pack had started on the trail nothing was heard from “Old Limber,” while the younger dogs were continually bay- ing and dashing about. Eventually “Old Limber’s” voice was heard. The hunters trailed to the spot and found the dean of the pack with a hand- some red fox. Applying the story to himself, Tay- lor insisted that he was as capable as! any of his younger, more talkative opponents of making the fight for the gubernatorial prize, as was “Old Limber” among a pack of younger hounds in going after the fox. And the voters helped to emphasize that Taylor's estimate of himself was not exaggerated. He was elected gover- rector of St, church. nor of Tennessee at 72.
