rolling, Is better drained and less liable to
overflow in wet seasons than those portions
more nearly bordering on the Red.
WELL wATERED.
The Sheyenne river, which nearly equally
divides the county east and west, and Its tribu-
taries drain and water the country, while there
are about twenty small lakes within its limits,
and good wells can be had at from twelve to
fifteen feet In depth.
TIMBER.
About 1000 acres of Barnes comfy is tim
bered, most Of it along the Sheyenne, and
consists of ash, oak and elm, which proves of
inestimable value to settlers.

forty-two long, north and south, with its geo.

Actual settlement at this point began about
1877 but the growth of the place as we'll as
the settlement of the surrounding country
was comparatively slow until the spring of
1880, since which time city has been built
up as If by magic. The railroad enters from
the east or west side and whirls You into its
center before You are aware OF it, but by far
the most delightful point of entry is from the
north side by way of Fifth avenue. This de-

tful slopes, finish as pleasing and beautiful a
picture as can well be imagined and, spread out
before us In one grand panorama, charms and
thrills the beholder. at the foot of Fifth
avenue the railroad company are now
building handsome and commodious struc-
ture to be used as passenger depot, the entire
capacity of their present depot being needed for
freight, and when completed will be model
of its kind and an ornament to the city. A
short distance west of it is the elevator OF
Barnes & Magill, Northwestern Elevator COM
pany, with a capacity of 10000 bushels. The
First National bank building, a fine brick
structure, costing $4,000, and the Fifth
Avenue hotel, just opposite and now under
process Of construction, are the two most i'm
portaut structures on Fifth avenue at present.
The latter is being built by B. W. Benson,
ESQ.,, and is 90x96 feet in extent with double
front. The basement is of stone and the su-
perstructure three stories and mansard roof of
brick. 1t will contain eighty sleeping rooms
and will be model hotel in point OF construc-
ton and equipment, the building costing $780,
600. 1t will be opened about July Is, and
will be hailed with delight, as the present
hotel quarters are utterly inadequate for the
comfort and convenience of the people visit
ing the town. The engraving found on this
page from the plan of the architect, gives a
correct idea of how 1t will look
when completed. There will also
be found a superb cut of the
Barnes county court house. This elegant and
imposing structure, the finest of its kind in
northern Dakota, occupies a commanding po-
sitiOa to the north and west of the depot.

This beautiful engraving represents st eet
scene upon Fifth avenue, Valley City, D. T.,
one of the fine towns which has sprung into
life and being within the past few years IN the
Great Northwest.
Valley City is the county seat of Barnes,
one of the richest counties In the famous Red
River Valley, and is at present reached by the
Northern Pacific railroad, IS miles west from
Fargo.
ORIGIN OF THE VALLEY.
Aud here I wish to say to those who have
never visited it or who are unfamiliar with
its history, the term valley per see, does not
convey correct idea of this wonderful
region, The term usually implies narrow
vale of perhaps a few miles in width, bounded
by hills or bluffs, through which the bed of
the sream from which it takes its name has
its tortuous course on its way to join some
larger body OF water and where the soil is
fertile or unproductive as the case may be.
The Red River Valley is no valley at all in
reality, but high, level or slightly undulat-
ing prairie or plateau of one hundred miles
in width, extending northward to Lake
Winnipeg from about the forty sixth parallel,
terminating on the east with the ridge hardly
observable which separates the tributaries Of
the Red from those OF the Mississippi, and on
the west by the lue which marks the rise of

mittce OF fifty citizens banded together to
infict summary justice on the fend who per-
petrated the deed detailed above. In
the middle of the night they
went to the jail, found Sheriff
Eustis and demanded of him the keys to the
various cells in the Jail. He refused. They
then demanded information as to the cell in
which the prisoner was confined. This was
also refused.
They then went to blacksmith shop near
by, obtained tools, ond worked three hours
diligently to file off the bolts and bars which
held the doors. This was finally done.
The supposed criminal was taken out of
his cell and brought to the house of the out
ragged girl, by whom be was identified.
He WAS then taken to the yard of the high
schoo! and, after q few moments time allowed
him for preparation, he was hanged from a

nothing but railroad can,

[Cor. st. Louis Republican,
One aud ahalf miles east Of Richmond, Mo-,
is the home of the Ford boys. 1t is difficult
of access; deep ravines wind through and
about the farm-just the location to hide
away from the haunts Of men and to plot deep
and damning conspiracy. For two years Mr..
Howard (Jes James, has come and gone at
his own sweet will, and yet the neighbors
dreamed not that the prince of brigands was go
near The Fords were not neighborly, but
Bob would often be seen ON the streets
with strangers. He was quiet, genteel,
young man withDo habits that could be OBJ
jectionable. Jim Cummings was q cousin to
the Fords, while Wood Hite was relative of
the James,. The taking off Of Comings was
the act of either Hite or Jesse. Little and Bob
Ford, it is now almost fatally established,
charged Hite with the deed; quarrel ensued,
and he shot Little through the leg, in turn
Ford put bullet through the brain of Hite.
Knowing full we'll that Jesse would retaliate
for his Cousins death, Little lost no
time in communicating with the
governor. A midnight raid upon
the Ford mansion soon after by officers of the
law failed to bag the game wanted. The
Fords complained at Kansas City OIL the I'M
warrantable proceedings, but were quickly
and buried Hite. The secrets of the bandit.i
were now no longer hidden, and so
tAs Fords felt that it was sauve
qui peut. Then the sister, who was the
sole woman of the household, hurried
to Jefferson City and did tale unfold, and
the fate of Jesse James was sealed. The Fords,
guaranteed immunity, went Systematically to
work the capture or death of their chief. With
a plausible story of the treachery Of Little,
which had placed them in jeopardy at home,
they were received into the family OF James.
Then the traitors waited and watched and
struck down the man they dare not capture.
