Boniface, superintendent of St. Alexius hospi- tal here, was the leading figure. The tablet marks the site of the first hospital established west of the Mississippi river and Sister Boniface was asked to unveil it because she ‘was the oldest member of the Catho- lic Hospital association present at the convention, of which the cere- mony was a program feature. Reviewing the colorful career which brought the distinction to Sis- Mod the St. Louis newspaper said: “Pionering in the northwest 60 years ago, Sister M. Boniface, supe- Tior of St. Alexius hospital of Bis- marck, N. D., who is here attending the 18th annual convention of the Catholic Hospital Association of the ‘United States and Canada, watched the frontier disappear from Ameri- can life and helped to write the his- tory of her state. “It is a vivid, picturesque period of America which her memory covers since she came in the.early days to take charge of the first hospital in Bismarck. Last year at the Catholic hospital convention, she celebrated her 60th anniversary as a Sister of the Order of St. Benedict, which she entered in St. Cloud, Minn, when she was 14 years old. “She is being honored today by be- ing chosen as the most fitting Sister at the convention to unveil the tab- Jet on Spruce street, which will mark the site of the first hospital in St. Louis and the first west of the Mis- sissippi river. The ceremony will be held at 2 p. m. by the Catholic Hos- pital association. The hospital was established by the Sisters of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul, who conduct the De Paul hospital on Kings high- way. Nursed Roosevelt “Theodore Roosevelt was one of Sister Boniface’s patients when he was roughing it in North Dakota and had an attack of pneumonia. After- wards, whenever he visited Bismarck ‘nd the whole town celebrated his coming, he always called at St. Alex- ius hospital to pay his respects, she stated with pride. “The city welcome committee al- ‘ways pinned the famous rabbit tail badges on the Sisters which everyone else wore when Teddy*was in town, and we were glad to wear them in hhis honor,’ she said yesterday. “When Sister Boniface arrived in Bismarck, N. D., more than 40 years ago, she took over @ building which had been started for a hotel in boom Gays and abandoned unfinished. It was converted into a hospital with 15 beds, and immediately filled with patients from the poorhouse, which ‘burned down just as the hospital was finished. The first month she took in, only $20, she relates. “The hardships of those early ‘days may sound romantic in retro- spect, but they were very present trials at the time,’ she explains. “There was no water system in the town, and we had to pay 25 cents a ‘barrel for water for laundry hauled teveral miles from the Missouri river. No Heating System “‘Each room in the hospital was heated by @ small coal stove snd the winters were bitter cold. I got per- mission to put in a hot-water heat- * ‘ng plant if i could raise the money, wo I begged until I was promised a thousand dollars. One man gave me 8 lot which later sold for $600. Then T sent 400 miles to the nearest plumber. He came in July and prom- Ised to have the plant in by October, and with hasty optimism, I sold all of the stoves except one in the recre- ation hall and one in the men’s lounge, and we nearly froze to death before the plant was finally installed and working on Christmas Day.’ “Sister Boniface bought the first telephone in town when a salesman came to Bismarck with six instru- ments. She induced the leading drug- gist to buy the second one and a doc- tor the third one, but when she tried to sell the other doctor the fourth one, he unless she would promise never to call him after he had gone to bed. ‘He thought it would be too easy for us to xisturb him,’ she added. “Indians were regular patients in the hospital in the early days, and they were a problem, because when one Indian needed an operation all his friends decided to come along and have one, too, according to Sister Boniface. Whole Family Along “Once I remember opening the door to find the reservation agent with 10 Indian men, all of whom wanted their tonsils taken out. The women and children always came along also and the entire family would sit on the floor around the patient’s bed and we couldn’t budge them out of the way. Once we had Sitting Bull, the son of the famous chief, with us four months. He had gotten into some trouble with the government and was in the city jail until he got sick, and then they sent him over to us with a man to guard him. He was a great singer and would sing so loud and so long that we would get his guard to make him be quiet. The Indians have improved greatly in recent years in Dakota and they are not such a trial to us, nor do they require so much washing and cleaning up when they are admitted to the hospital.’ “A modern five-story hospital build- ing with a hundred and forty beds and a nurses’ home of equal size, have been built under Sister Boniface'’s regime to supplant the pioneer struc- tures. The elm trees which she plant- ed on windswept prairie streets have grown tall and stately ‘where they said no trees would grow.’ “Her stories are rich in nce and service, and enlightened with a ETHYL GIVEN AWAY FREE One of New York's most unique communities, not many minutes from Times Square, is the Box Car Village in upper Manhattan where 50 men are living happily paying $3 a month rent or $6 a week The village, operated by two women, is shown in a general view above. interior of a typical box car, which is equipped to sleep four men, is pictured below.

McDonnell of the North Da- kota railroad commission left Mon- Gay for Aberdeen, S. D., where he will attend.a meeting Tuesday of the Northwest Shippers Advisory board, of which he is chairman, The board has supervision over the distribution of freight cars for the states of North and South Dakota, Montana, Minne- sota and western Wisconsin.

It's purpose is to esti- mate freight car requirements and to prevent shortages during the season when the bulk of the wheat crop is being moved. Since its organization the board has been very successful in overcoming congestion in the ter- minals and providing shippers with cars as needed. kindly humor that has found enjoy- ment in the hardships as well as the adventure of pioneer life.” Sister Boniface said Saturday the St. Louis reporter appeared a Mittle skort on Indian lore, since he got Sit- ting Bull mixed up with his son. The singing Indian, she said, was not the famous medicine man himself but one of his off-spring. Hale and keen of mind at 74, Sister Boniface is one of the state's lead- ing citizens. Ten years ago she was the guest of honor at a public dinner given in honor of her 50th anniver- sary in the sisterhood. ‘s She is widely traveled, having at- tended every convention of the Cath- olic Hospital Association for the last 18 years. Her memoirs are an important document in the archives of the state historical society.

Moorhead’s Waiver Agreemnt Is Valid St. Paul, July 24—(7)—Attorney General Harry H. Peterson Monday held valid a waiver agreement which the city of Moorhead demands from beer licenses permitting the city offi- cials to search their place of business at any time without the necessary search warrant. As a result of repeal of the state's old prohibition laws by the last legis- lature, no provision is made for a search warrant for state law viola- tions. Before granting a license, the city of Moorhead forces the applicants to sign an agreement giving city offi- cials permission to not only search their place of business at any time, but to use any evidence found against them in courts. Evidence so obtained would be legal under the 1933 laws, providing that only evidence lawfully obtained may be received by the courts the attor- ney ruled.

Bodies of Drowning Pasadena, Calif, July 24—(?)— The case of an 11l-months old baby, revived five minutes after its heart had stopped beating and kept alive six days, was reported here Monday. The child, son of Mr. and Mrs, dena, died beyond revival Sunday. Six days ago the child “died” in the Pasadena hospital. At- tending physicians said its heart hhad ceased beating and that no pulse or other sign of life was noted for five minutes or more. Dr. John S, Hibben obtained permission of the parents for an attempt to revive the infant, a victim of lead poisoning from a newly painted crib, complicated by whooping cough. Dr. Hibben then injected ad- renalin into the heart, which thus was started again, and the child was placed in a respirator. In this life was maintained for six days, but the child's poison-de- teriorated system would not allow it to recover, physicians said. Victims Not Found tim, was the only witness.
