The skeleton was free from flesh,

The clothes consisted of suit of

overcoat, heavy shoes, partly worn
overshoes, cloth cap, mittens, green
woolen wrist protectors, and a belt
which was around the body outside

j. L. Cotton passes thru Wash
burn Ell route to his town Burling-
ton on the Mouse, several miles
from. the present site of Minot.
Mr.. Cotton impressed the Times
as a man of push and energy, which
later developments proved him to
be. He asserted that Burlington
would have frst-class store, hotel
and printing Office before Novem-
ber first, and before November first
it had all these things and more
too. Cotton prospered and his town
grew as other frontier towns in
those days and until the advent of
the Great Northern railway. Five
years later Burlington was the
Queen city of all that'great expanse
of country west of Devils Lake.
With the coming of the railroad,
Cotton dreamed of Burlington as a
great city, even greater than Minot
perhaps. The railroad survey took
in Burlington and it's future was
apparently secured. A difference,
however, arose between Cotton and
James J. Hill concerning conces-
sions by the town for the railroad.
Time passed on; Cotton was obsti-
nate and would not yield, the grad
ing of the road was pushed with
all possible speed. Hill threat
ened to leave Burlington off the
line unless Cotton yielded to his
demands. By reason Of topograph-
ical conditions, Cotton reasoned
that this was impossible and that

grass grows better the further north

icertainly seems that way go far.
The palatability of the grass as

part of it is all right. Prof. Shep-

should be remembered that the

variety, but it certainly proves that
it is palatable and Of good flavor.
I have noticed that the bronze

Their Courtship Had Lasted Since
Their Childhood.

Miss Willie May Andrews of Mayfieid,
KY, were married yesterday morning
ia Clayton by Rev. J. NJ. Langtry Of
the Presbyterian church. The wedding
was surprise to the friends of the

since childhood, but had seen little OF
each other in the past few years.
Thursday Miss Andrews visited the
city on her way to see friends out in
the state and met Mr.. Lyon. He per.
susded her to remain over night with
some friends and yesterday morning
convinced her that they should be
married at once"
