EXPERT IDENTIFIES SEVEN SPECIES OF MOSQUITOES HERE Says June Rains Start Hordes Coming Out of Breeding Spots Near City Seven types of mosquito have been Identified here in the investigations carried on over three days by W. P. Komp, the Greenwood. Miss., expert of the Public Health service. Following search for wigglctails in the left-over flood water on the Wachter tract near Fort Lincoln and the breeding spots up the river near the Milan Ward farm, Mr. Komp and A. L. Bavone, state sanitary engineer, visited the swales around Mandan, Thursday, and made a closer study of the situation. These swales are the source of hordes of the peats, their stagnant waters and weeds being ideal breeding places. Today Mr. Komp visited the weath er observatory and took down data covering several years, on winds, pre cipitation and humidity. What he learned confirmed his theory that it is the June rains that start the hordes of mosquitoes. They provide the moisture and fill low places and de pressions with water that multiplies breeding puddles. Mr. Komp will obtain some maps and aerial views showing the charac ter of the terrain and also flood con ditions, then he will leave on his re turn to Greenwood, Saturday morn ing. He has laid the basis for a further study of the mosquito situa tion if it be desired to take steps in the nature of permanent relief. For this summer relief can be of an alle viating scope only, as it is too late in the season to head off the pests now. The health authorities here will re ceive a report from him through the publio health service when he gets back to his official quarters. CHICAGO GANGSTERS VICTIMIZE ANOTHER * Third Murder in 36 Hours, the Most Brutal of the Trio, Probed by Cops Chicago, May 31.—WP)—Another murder—the third in 36 hours and the most brutal of the three—was done last night when a man walked up to Ettorc Quaterri sitting in front of his little grocery, and fired four bullets into his body. Quaterri did not die at once. He was conscious when police arrived, and able to talk. But he would not say who shot him; and he denied knowledge of any reason—gang con nection, black hand threats or per sonal vengeance—for the shooting. The groceryman was 54 years old. He w r as married, the head of a family of three children, the oldest being 29. Yesterday police found the body of Dominick Costa, known as a thief and stool pigeon. He had been done to death in gang fashion —taken for a •‘ride,’* beaten, shot and then dumped into a field on 83rd street. A few hours earlier Thomas McElligott was killed in a pistol duel in the basement barroom of a downtown grill. Mc- Elligott was often arrested in con nection with "rackets” and crimes of violence. The kidnaping, apparently for ran some, of "Kid” Austin was another of the flares sent up by gangsters over the holiday. An anonymous tele phone call to the detective bureau said: Don’t worry about that Austin guy. He is just being detained until his friends fix up a purse of $20,000.” Maclntyre Dancers Revue Is Success A program characterized by some exceptionally fine singing and danc ing numbers was that given last eve ning at the city auditorium as the Maclntyre Dancers Revue. The en tertainment was divided into four parts with excellent scenic and light ing effects throughout. The opening number, “Children of the Moon ” in which 28 children par ticipated was one of the outstanding acts. A delightful fantasy, it gave opportunity for tap, toe, and clog dancing, as well as group dances of the butterflies, flower girls and fairies. Dorothy Barneck as the king, Marlyn Ruth Duemeland as the queen and Ruth Coghlan as the jester, were very good. “On the Links,” a novelty sketch, followed. The ‘raggedy rose* dance depicted by Veronica Werstlein and Ronald Maclntyre was well done as was the tap dancing by Inez Landers and Mr. Maclntyre. For the classical dance group, Mary Slater gave interpretative Indian dances, and her sister Alice Slater, “The Indian Love Call." Miss Werstlein and Mr. Maclntyre ap peared in the Argentine Tango and each appeared in solo dances as did Marian Slater and Owen Pilmoor. “India,” a mystery dance-play, was built around the theft of the famous emerald in a temple near Calcutta. The gem, guarded by a priestess (Veronica Werstlein), is stolen by an explorer (Ronald Maclntyre), who ac cidentally finds the temple. He gains the affection of the priestess in order to steal the gem, but is later killed when he refuses to return it. The “Song of India,” by a chorus of Bismarck women, and “Allah's Holiday,” by W. J. Robinson, were two very enjoyable music.*! numbers. Fea ture dances were the “Dance of Death,” and the “Dance of Exulta tion.” Peter Culbertson as the idol, and Tom and John Culbertson as the slaves, and Inez Landers, Gwen Pil moor, Elsie Slater, Alice Sarheim, Hazel Hedstrom as the attendants, were other members of the cast. In the chorus were Mesdames L. R. Briske, J. A. Larson, Jennie Thomp son Graham, Arthur Bauer, H. J. Duemeland, W. G. Childs and Grace Duryee Morris. Mrs. Clara Morris played a number of piano novelties during the evening. UNLUCKY NAME Battle Creek, Mich.—On one day recently three residents of this city named Carpenter died—Orrien G. Carpenter, 34. Frank R. Carpenter. 45. and Adelbert Carpenter, 50. The three men were not related. MAY 31.1929 South Carolina Is/Marry-Land’ for Busy Judge Smith York. 8. C.. May 1.-(NEA)—There was a time when this town was called Yorkville. The ‘ville was dropped some 14 years ago. And now expon ents of change are considering still ether names. They want to call it "Cupid's Corner,” “Gretna Green,” "Marryvllle,” or something of* the sort. Here's why: In this town of 5,000, there have been more than 5400 marriage licenses issued, and marriage ceremonies per formed, in the last two years. And that, York is confident, is a record not only for South Carolina, but for every county south of the Mason- Dixon line. It doesn't mean, of course, that everybody in York has been married twice in two years. It means simply that York is to matrimony what Reno, Nev., is to divorce. It's a famous "hitching-post.” Where It’s Cheaper to Wed There are two perfectly adequate reasons why about-to-be-married lovers flock to York. One of them has to do with its geographical loca tion, and South Carolina marriage laws. In the hard-hearted dominion of North Carolina, just across the border, a license for wedded bliss costs in the neighborhood of $5, while medical examinations for two and other bothersome formalities are like ly to run the total up to a week’s pay check. An auto ride and $2.50 is all that’s necessary in South Carolina. What more natural than that Tar Heels should slip across the border to be tied up? The other reason—and the reason why so many, select York in prefer ence to other border towns—is Pro bate Judge G. P. Smith, of York county. Judge Smith is easily the champ marrier of South Carolina. Look at the figures. He took office Jan. 1, 1927, and in the two years since he has issued 5400 licenses. He has per formed at least 90 per cent of those marriages himself, which gives him a yearly average of 2430 couples. Fed eral statistics show York county run ning about a thousand ahead of its nearest South Carolina rival. The fame of York county and Judge Smith have spread farther than merely the two Carolinas. Tourists headed south or north often turn aside to be married by the urbane judge. He is urbane, chivalrous, kind ly and sincere, a gentleman of the old South, a former state senator. His ceremonies are marked by dig nity and decorum. From all walks of life they pour in, the men blush ing and stammering a bit, the wom en nonchalant and carefully casual, to take their vows. But not all of them get licenses. Despite the laxity of South Carolina marriage laws. Judge Smith uses dis cretion. He refuses licenses to minors, or to couples obviously ill-fitted for each other. And when Judge Smith is away, there is always his clerical secretary. Miss Bessie Wiley. She has wedded as many as 18 couples in one day, which is believed to be a record for a woman. New York.—A wrist watch shortly to be introduced on the market winds itself. The watch works by means of a weighted segment pivoted in the center which, swinging with the move ment of the arm, moves a gear con nected with the main spring. When this spring is fully wound a friction spring disengages the winding action. FIREMEN LIKED THAT Bayonne, N. J.—Edward Farrell, a delirium patient at Bayonne hospital, was responsible for a sleepless night for firemen here recently. He wan dered about and pulled a fire alarm, sounding the warning at fire head quarters and repeating it over the local circuit. Six companies were dis patched to the scene of the false alarm. Minot, N. D., May 31.— (/P) —Rev. Alf. Hendrickson, 64, pastor of the Norwegian Lutheran church at Car pio, died in a Minot hospital yester day. “And Now I just order “HI Barker’s Doughnuts” r 3 * It was at the Wednesday Bridge Party and Mrs. Brown was talking about her other half—• “Henry’s recreation is eating.

DeMorpurgo of Italy in the quarter-finals of the French championships after losing the first two sets. The scores were 9-11, 3-6, 6-1, 6-2, 8-6. fPEOPLE’S FORUM' 4 4 THE TROLLEY CONTROVERSY Editor Tribune: I was sorry to read in tonight's Tribune (Tuesday) that the old “trol ley car controversy” has bobbed up again. It seems to me there are lots of other things in Bismarck that could be cleaned up and disposed of that would really be worth while doing, in as much as the city would be bene fited and also the citizens. It is a true fact that our old trolley is not an ornament, but I can not see why there is so much to howl about, as it really is a source of service to a great many. I think it would be In considerate of those who take the | trolley away—lnconsiderate because the capitol building is located so far away from the homes of those who must either walk the long distance several times a day or hire taxis. Per haps the trolley is a joke. That’s very well for folks who need not depend upon it; but how about those who do depend on it? I am not writing this because the trolley is necessary to me or mine. It is not—though I use it many times. I think the joke is that a city as Inrse ns Bismarck can not stand a single street car, or cannot manage more. When the thermometer shows that the weather is "cold”—or. in % other words, when the mercury has dropped out of sight or is hovering around 25 or 30 degrees below—then is the time that folks are glad to ride in that old trolley. And when Z think how obliging our skipper is in bad days, stopping at convenient spots along the way so that the passengers may get on or off conveniently, I think we should vote him a permanent Job. If the citizens object to this old trolley let us get a new one. A can not see that the tracks on Fourth street are such a nuisance. Folks who buy property on Fourth street know the tracks are there, and if they object so strenuously I think it’s from a selfish motive. I think that a matter of this kind should be decided wholly upon the basis of the good of the community. Selfish personal reasons should not be considered at all. As far as I can see or understand, the street car is doing more good than harm. "Traffic congestion!” That is a joke. One measly little street car causing confusion and traffic congestion! Of course, if the city wishes to listen to a few property owners and act on their complaints I suppose those who really need that street car wouldn’t have much chance at being heard, and of course a vote would be one way of settling the matter. But a vote might be disastrous also to the “traveling public.” First, be cause there are a lot of people in Bis marck, a lot who never need the street car. Second, there are a lot of people living on Fourth street who w’ant to take the car away, also a lot of merchants who wish it bad luck.
