People who want to take the passenger
trains at the smaller stations need to be
O hand at the right time. c. c. Gordon
of Antelope found this out on Monday.
He wanted to board No. 3 but was not at
the platform when the train slowed down
to take on other passengers. He ran

and shouted for all he was worth, but the
conductor could not pull his train down
again as he was under orders to make
every station on schedule time if possible.

termaster Long from San Francisco said
they.were received and had been forward
ed to Manila by the St. Paul. After

DR.. G. A. Perkins and his driver spent
a good portion of Sunday night on the
prairie. They were trying to make Bel
field from 7 o'clock in the evening until
IL o'clock, when they brought up at the
Taylor sod house in the edge of Billings
county. Here they found the ~lifeless
body of the younger Taylor brother,
about 81 years of age, who had died the
day before of bright's disease. The liv-
ing brother, suffering from the same dis
ease, had left the previous day for a
%neighboring ranch. The doctor and his
driver did not let a corpse disturb their
rest, their greatest difficulty being in
keeping warm, the place being almost
without food or fuel.
