gentlemen from the Twin Cities
were here last week and a Minot
contractor took them around
the city to show them his work.
He pointed out one elegant house
which happened to be the one
which Mr.. Teutsch has been build
ing. The gentlemen from the
city compliu1ented the work high
~. The next day Mr.. Teutsch
took the same men around town
and pointed out the same house,
as the one which he had been
constructing. The jig was up for
the first contractor. Mr.. Teutsch
is not kicking. He says if any
one can get any credit for his
work they are welcome to it, just
SO he gets the work.

Mr.. and Mrs. Yoder came to Sur
rey in the spring from Pennsyl-
vania and this son Fred not be-
ingstrongsoon took hemorrhages
of the lungs and went rapidly
into consumption from which he
died. He was a true Christian

a member of the Mennonite
church, and although a great
sufferer from bodily pain during
his sickness bore his sufferings
withgreat Christian fortitude and
faith in Christ expressing his con-
fidence and trust in God to every
one. He selected the hymns he
loved best and wished them to be
sung at the funeral services and
also the scripture lesson, the
minister he wished to deliver the
sermon and his young men &C
quaintances for pail bearers. His
wishes were very carefully carried
out. Rev. Bradley preaching the

DO NOT AGREE ON PRICE

Ten of the most prominent
mine owners in the county repre-
senting the largest mines at Bur-
lington, kenmare, Donnybrook
and other places, met in this city
Tuesday to settle the difficulty
regarding the price asked for
coal at the mines. The kenmare
mine owners state that. they have
to pay their men more each day
for the work because the veins
OF coal are but three to five feet
thick while the veins at Burling-
ton average eleven feet and the
miners mine out nine feet of it.
One mine owner stated to an In
dependent representative that he
was against charging $500 a
ton for the coal as he considered
that he was making good money
at s.. % and he did not care to
hog the people. Ii the mine own
ers charged quarter OF a dollar
more a ton for the coal, the local
dealers likely would add another
quarter, making the buyers pay
fifty cents more a ton. The min
ers themselves make excellent
wages. Two miners at one OF
the Burlington mines recently
made So and $3.50 each for a
days work. A green man will
make good wages from the start.
The probabilities are that the
owners will not agree to sell the
coal for $3.50 a ton.
