70 OPEN MORE RICH LANDS
GREAT NORTHERN NAMES HOME
SEEKER RATES WEST OF MINOT.
With Attention Given Ia other Sec
lions. Millions OF Acres In This
District Have Not Yet Been Ex-
ploited-Rates Effective October Z

The Great Northern railway has de.
cided to open up and develop in a more
rapid manner than has ever before been
attempted that rich tract OF agricultural
and mineral land along its line from
Minot. n. D., west to the Pacific coast
During the past year this road hai
brought 10 the vast Northwest thousands
of homeseekers. greater portion OF
whom are now In q way TO become active
producers OF agricultural crops. But In
order to assist in settling up the sparsely
inhabited sections OF all the Northwest.
more attention has been paid to distant
territory than to that adjacent TO the line
OF the road. That II has been successful
In Its efforts in the past can be attested
by almost every section Of this state as
well as in every state where the work has
been done.
The possibilities OF the country now to
be opened up to settlement have never
yet been exploited Within It's confines
is some of the richest agricultural land
to be found anywhere. Rich harvests.
mineral strikes or other circumstances
advantageous to other sections have re-
suited In cheap excursion rates TO attract
the attention of homeseekers. The coun-
try along the line OF the Great Northern
has raised Its bountiful harvests has pro-
duced its tons OF mineral and has Its
miles of splendid standing timber year
after year. and will do so for many years
TO come. Millions OF acres OF rich farm
ing timber and agricultural lands lie
Idle for the reason that the people neces-
sary to develop the resources of this vast
section have not received the same oppor-
tunities to investigate its agricultural.
forest and mineral advantages that are
given TO other sections by the cheap ex-
cursion rates made from time to time TO
encourage immigration.
The Great Northern has now deter
mined TO develop all this territory trib-
utary to It's line from Minot, N. D. west
to the Coast. and believing the interests
OF the territory and the people who are
now living therein can be best fostered
and subserved by the further settlement
and development Of the country, II an
nounces one way and round-trip settlers
excursion rates, which II believes will re-
suit In accomplishing the objects sought.
These rates are as follows
To Great Falls. Kalispell and points
farther east, one way from Chicago SIS.
round trip, s45. From Eastern terminals,
one way. $50: round trip. $35. To points on
the Great Northern west OF Kalispell.
from Chicago, one way. $50; round trip,
$50. From Eastern terminals. one way.
SIS: round trip. $40.
Round trip tickets WIFI bear limit OF
thirty days with stop-over privileges west
Of Minot within going limit Of twenty
days. Tickets Will be on sale Tuesday Of
each week commencing October 49, and
continuing until and including Tuesday.

STORM AFTER STORM MET.
The John Cooke Arrives in Port After
Hard Voyage-Six OF the Crew
Injured; None Seriously.

The three- -masted barque John Cooke,
thirty-nve days from Shanghai in
ballast. reached port yesterday morn
ing.
In speaking OF the voyage Captain
Robert Magee. Of the Cooke. said: I'VE
had an unusually rough trip over. One
storm after another was encountered.
Sails were blown away, masts sprung
and other damage done. too numerous
10 mention in detail. Six OF my crew
were injured, one seriously, but fortu-
nately none were lost.
We were only 2S days out when we
reached the bar a week ago but the
storm kept us at sea, standing of,
for several long days. The damage to
the ship will be easily repaired while
We are loading. and l sincerely hope
for better weather on our voyage home.
We are chartered for grain at Port
land and will load and get to sea as
quickly as we can"
The Cooke carries a crew OF rs. in
Guiding eight apprentices. Captain
Magee has a reputation for turning out
apprentices "nt for service" and con-
seQuently there is always a rush to
put boys aboard his ship. He has new
er had an APPRENTICE fail to pass the ex-
aminations since he has been master
and several well-known officers in the
merchant service can thank Captain
Magee for their early training.
The Cooke had a clean bill OF health
for the quarantine officers and will go
to Portland today.

PASSING OF YELLOWSTONE PARK

II is stated upon good authority that
the geysers which have made Yellow
stone Park famous are gradually de-
clInlng. Spots once the scene Of ex-
traordinary phenomena are now COW
cred by buildings. showing that ma
ture's work has become exhausted
Tourists who have never visited the
park are advised to do so soon. before
they have passed forever. This infor-
nation brings to mind, rather pointed
ly. the fact that decline is the law Of
the world. both geographical and phys
ical. Health is the most precious pos
session in the world and too great care
cannot be given It. In the spring you
should renew your strength and re-
vitalize your blood and nerves with
the best OF all medicines-Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters. It also cures stom-
ach disorders. Try it.

oUTwITTED THE OFFICERS.
Fishermen Rescue a Net Seized, and
Bear II Away in Safety-Patrol
Established.

The fact that illegal fishing has been
in progress for the past week has been
an open secret In the city and on
Thursday night Fish Commissioner
Reed was given the location Of q
plant" that would probably be oper-
ated on the river that night.
He detailed Deputy Fish Commits
sloner Laughery to look after the vio-
lators of the law. The officers took the
launch Ethel. with Captain Rich and
young man named True, on board,
az a patrol boat.
Cruising around Tongue Point about
q. m. the officers discovered boat
wording net and made for 1t. The
occupants Of the boat cut loose from
the net and rowed away in the dark
ness and Laughery and his assistants
proceeded to gather In the net and put
1t aboard the launch, bringing 1t into
the city
1t was decided to leave the net on
board the launch until later in the day
and Deputy Laughery went home leav-
ing Captain Rich and True in charge
of the captured property. About break
fast time, daylight. Captain Rich went
to his room, leaving young True in
charge of the boat and net. True took
nap on his own hook and was awak-
ened by the noise Of men taking the
captured net Off the launch.
The owners of the net had quietly
rowed alongside the launch in the
early morning, as soon as it was light
enough to see to work quickly and at
once began transferring the captured
property to their fishing boat True
