DEATH OF FATHER SCOTT.
Passed Away to the Haven of Rest Monday
Buried at Walhalla To-Day.

Passed Away to the Haven of Rest Monday
Buried at Walhalla To-Day.
In the death of Rev John Scott, which
occurred on Monday of last week at
jamestown, the citizens of Langdon as
we'll as the people of the northern part of
the state generally feel that the field Of
religious work has been deprived of one
of it's ablest and CONSCIENTIOUS workers
whose lncessant labors in the Red River
Valley, extended over period of nearly
twenty-five years. His efforts continually
had an influence for good and has done
more than anything else to establish on
these prairies the foundation principals
of right, justice and morality. "Father"
Scott was born on Dec. %, in 1924, at
BeIlingnam, Ellis, in England and as
early as 1886, settled with his parents
near Ayr, Ont. EARLY in youth he COM
menced his studies for the ministry at
Toronto University, later visited Eng
land and Scotland with view to
entering the missionary field CT the West
Indies, but was deferred by poor health.
On his return to Canada he took charge
of church at Bath, Ont, remaining as
it's pastor for eighteen years when he
came west in 1875 to labor as mission
ary IN Manitoba and Dakota, since
which time his work has been closely
identified with the growth and progress
OF this country, where he had an intimate
acquaintance with all the earlier settlers.
In 1898 Father Scott was in charge of
the Presbyterian church in this city
though at all times feeling that Walhalla
was his home. With the approach of
old age both physical and mental weak
ness We're Affections which befell him
and though for three years past he has
been undergoing treatment at the James
town asylum his name and work has
never been forgotten. The funeral takes
place at Walhalla this afternoon

the work the institute would take up,

the state. The college at Fargo is
making some satisfactory experiments
regarding the destruction of The pest the
results of which we're given careful at

In the evening the Institute adjourned

THREE CENTS A MILE.
Great Northern Reduces Passenger Tariff
In North Dakota One Cent.

Depot Agent Shaw gave out the
information this week that the general
passenger agent of the Ct. Northern is
preparing to officially announce that not
later than April next their road will
reduce it's one way passenger tariff in
North Dakota to three cents mile
thus putting North Dakota on the same
basis as Minnesota. This action is
entirely voluntary on the part of the
road and is splendid tribute to the
people of North Dakota, because of
increased travel on this line-the local
business being larger than ever before.
As an evidence of the saving to the
patrons, Langdon will be benefited az
we'll as the whole people. The fare
from Langdon to Grand Forks will be
reduced from s4O8 to $3.1O.

ARNOLD
COMPLETES TASK
Three Mail Routes Have Been Agreed
Upon.
OTHERS SHALL BE ESTABLISHED
When Surveys Are Completed and
Notwithstanding, Tropic and
Hudson the Routes Selected to Be
Operated First.

Postofice Inspector Arnold, who has
been in Americas several days for the
purpose of locating the rural mail
routes to be established in Sumter,
completed yesterday the work in part
and announces the establishment of
the first three lines.
These are the Jordanville, Tropic
and Hudson, or Yaw routes.
But Sumter will get two others
shortly, making a total of five. Spe-
cial maps of the territory traversed
must be prepared ere these others are
selected.
The first, or Jordanville route, leads
out from the city via the Ellaville
road, to the G. O.. Sheppard place, via
Beckwith's; thence east to Doziers
Mill and W. NJ. McGarrah's. Thence
the route leads by John T. HowelPs
place to the city, twenty-five miles.
Inspector Arnold thinks this route a
very excellent one.
Route No. 2 goes eastward towards
Flint river, via the Burkhalter place
and Johnson's Schoolhouse, B. j.
Methvin's; thence north via DIR. I'll. FL.
McKellar's and J. L. Ohambliss to
Hudson postofice, New Era. Yaw and
Ogden, back to the city.
This route is twenty-six miles long,
and will be served by Mr.. Fl. G. Stan
field, who was duly appointed yester-
day by the inspector.
Route No. 3 is out via Scales Mill,
west, to Tropic, thence to Providence,
to Croxton's Crossroads, thence to An
drews Mill. This is the longest route
of all, thirty miles, and traverses one
of the most thickly settled portions of
Sumter.
Two other routes under considera-
ton are out towards Magnolia Springs,
to the north of Plains, and one south
to Ell. 81. Glover's.
So far Carrier Stanfleld is the only
appointee but carriers for the two 9TH
er routes agreed upon will be appoint
ed soon. The pay is $500 for the first
year, but this sum will be increased as
the rural mail business continues to
grow larger.
The service on these three routes
will be established within two or three
weeks.

"She was disappointed and wanted to
know what cough preparation / could

Remedy and that she could take bottle
of the remedy and after giving it fair
trial if she did not find it worth the
money to bring back the bottle and /
would refund the price paid. In the
course of day or two the lady came
back in company with friend in need
