SHOPS FOR JAMESTOWN
Northern Pacific Said to Be Plotting to
: -: Boost the Town. ". :. =. -.

JAMESTOWN, N. D.-Surveyors have
been at work In the vicinity of the round
house for some time and this has given
rise to a rumor that the Northern Pa
cif1c shops will be removed from Fargo to
Jamestown. An Official Of the Northern
Pacific, recently remarked that the store
house was coming to Jamestown and it
would not be very long before the shops
were removed to this city also.
One reason for the change Is that the
Northern Pacific switch tracks are be-
ing crowded west in the Fargo city limits
and it will probably be necessary tosutilizo
the site at present used for the, shops for
switch tracks. The Ergo shops are too
small and it Is intended to build new ones,
modern in every particular, and capable
of handling all kinds Of work. Officials
have figured that Jamestown is the most
convenient point to repair engines of the
Dakota division and it now seems not at
all unlikely that Jamestown will have the
shops. .al.t:,,*., :
When the new Northern Pacific station
is built in Jamestown next summer it Is
purposed to remove all the. old buildings
to a. point west of the, James river. The
Northern Pacific, it is stated, will remove
even the freight depot west OF the river.
! The Stutsman county commissioners are
considering proposition to build new
sheriff's residence and jail. The sheriff
lives in the courthouse and the jail is also
located there, but the other county offices
are crowded and it is considered necessary
to erect the new buildings. +.$.- >.

stermaster Sergeant Charles H. Pierce and
Oscar James Of Company I, Twentysec-

it reached that point. They hung on till
within mile of California Junction, when
EPierce's5 hands were frozen and he de-
cleared he would rather drop than endure
the agony longer.
His comrade tried to encourage him,
as the station lights were but a mile
away. However, he dropped to the frozen
ground and his face was mashed to a
Jelly. His companion rode to the station,
procured a handcar and broght him in
The temperature was about below zero.
