Monday, July 7, on train No. 4, for the
state encampment. The new time table
will make the leaving time about $40

j. K. Moody, who was in Dickinson on
Tuesday, said that the N. P. surveyors
were in the vicinity of his ranch. He
thought the line would be surveyed
across the Little Missouri at the mouth
Of Tepee creek, ID or IS miles south OF
Medora. The impression seems to be
that the new road will run to Ekalaka
and thence to Miles City or connecting
with main line at some point a little thi.
side Of Miles. Engineer Rice, a son OF
the Mr.. Rice who built the round. house
shops at Dickinson, has been looking
over this country for about two months
and seems confident that he can make
cut off between South Heart and Milet
City that will save some 40 miles and al
the same time secure easy grade which
will be-of the utmost importance to the
road. Of course trains will run wei the
old line after the new route has been
completed, but the fast trains and the
through freight will be run via the short
line.
