ROAD ACROSS THEIR LAND.
Piece Of Good Fortune For New Ulm
Spectators.

Information Of 9 gratifying nature
was received here last week by the
gentlemen interested in the New Ulm
Land and Investment company. Adj
vices which were sent them from Canada
state that a new line of railroad will
enter Regina next summer and that it
will cross the tract in Assiniboia which
they control. The spur will be built by
the Canadian Northern and it will
parallel two lines of road now being
operated by the Canadian Pacific.
This is the second road to build
across the land owned by the local
men. Last spring the Canadian Pacific
put through a branch which connected
with their main line at Regina and it
bisected the holdings of the New Ulm
company. All of their property was
advanced in price by the acquisition
and the TOWNSHIP of Kronau was located
upon one of their quarter sections.
Now the Canadian Northern, a COM
peting road, will run branch through
almost the same country. It will be
about 200 miles in length, = will go
through the territory between the main
and branch lines of the Canadian
Pacific and will have it's terminus. at
Regina, the capital. It is also very
probable that a station will be placed
on or near the New Ulm land and the
insinuation of this competition can
have but one result, to stimulate the
demand for real estate in that section
and to advance the value from 81 to
So per acre.
The new road will be of great assist
ance in opening up the entire region,
regarded as one of the richest farm
ing countries in the world, and means
much to the New Ulm men who have
invested so heavily there. They are
certain to profit, as will also those of
our people who have purchased their
lands in that section. ~

trapping expedition along the Mouse
river. On October 10Th he and his
partner separated in the morning and
he told Mr.. Rasmussen not to be
alarmed if he did not return until late

ment made in the family lot. Deceased

urer N. c.. Rukke.

Winter was ushered in Monday
with a very good imitation Of
the old-time blizzard. Snow fell thickly
and strong wind from the north
blew it about in binding fashion.
The storm ragged nearly all day but
the absence Of frost in the ground
caused the downy to melt at once, max
ing it very disagreeable under foot.

1t Is one of the compensations, per-
haps the only one, of the awful and
needless tragedy at Westfield that II
revealed at least two notable instances
of heroism that makes one feel proud
Of his kind. One of these was the
dying and unknown hero who said to
the rescuers:
Don't mind me. I'm done for. See
what you can do for some of the 9th
ers"
The other-and fortunately the world
now knows her name-is Mrs. Hark.
sen, who lives at the scene of the
wreck, who saw the frightful crash
and at once notified the Fire Depart
ment and then promptly turned her
home sinto a hospital, used her re-
volver on two tramp ghouls, and was
n ministering angel to the dying and
injured.
There are others worthy of grateful
memory for their bravery and devo-
ton at the scene of disaster, but these
two-a man and woman-proved
again that true chivalry and real hero
ism are not lost to the world.-New

A RIDE BEHIND A SHARK.

A harpooned shark towed a launch
load of hunters far out to sea yester-
day afternoon, and the line finally had
to be cut in order that the party could
return to the harbor. In the boat were
Deputy Sheriff Chillingworth, Captain
Flint, McDuffie, McKinnon and Ches-
ter Doyle. They went in the launch
TO the outer end of the channel, and af-
ter maneuvring for some time q big
shark loomed up near them. Captain
Flint threw q harpoon, which buried
itself fairly in the side Of the selachian.
The big fellow at once dived, and the
boat soon sped forward, although the
line was paid out very fast. After en-
joying the tow for several miles the
line was cut. The Deputy went over
board once, but was promptly rescued

Letters From the Dead.

There Is young widow in Brook
lyn who continues to receive letters
from her husband although lie has
been dead these many months. He
was soldier serving in the Philip
pines. On the occasion of the Moro
troubles in Mindanao last spring he
was sent to that island, where, after a
few weeks, he was slain in an engage
ment The War Department, having
received information by cable, soon
notified the widow, but the Postoffice
Department, with its few facilities for
handling mail in those far-off islands,
had not yet delivered any of the many
letters he had sent during his life
there. Since learning of his death she
has received many of these letters,
full of loverly hope and tender senti-
ments, and they are still coming. Some
times she keeps them unopened for
days before she can summon courage
to face her loved one in the full vigor
of his glad young life; for every mes
sage that thus brings him back to her
renews the ineffable agony of her first
great loss. Yet, on the other hand, she
cannot, of course, suffer a word of his
to go unread. Poor little woman!
Hers is an ineHpressibly sad lot

He felt certain she would be there,
and his heart warmed toward her
with q great longing.
"She is the victim of circumstances, :"
he told himself; "otherwise-it might
have beenp"
A victoria containing a lady alone
drew up at the door OF Dicks lodg-
ings.
Lillian stepped out and nervously as
cended the steps. She knew she was
doing wrong.
SIS Mr.. Urquhart at homer" she
asked nervously, conscious that her
voice faltered and her cheeks grew
crimson as she put the question to a
stout landlady whose elephantine pro-
portions blocked the doorway.
"No, miss; he went out about ten
minutes ago."
Lilian's face fell, sense of bitter
disappointment stole over her, and
with it longing to see the room Dick
had so recently vacated.
"May 1 write him a letter." she
asked, walking into the narrow pas
sage, and trying to speak unconcern-
edly.
Certainly, miss. This way" A door
was flung open and Lillian breathed
the atmosphere in which Dick had so
lately moved. She glanced at the scat
tered papers on his desk, and the faded
portrait of herself

behind her.

what to say; but I'll leave these lilies" )"
unfastening her namesake flowers from
the soft chiffon of her dress.
Carelessly she let them fall to the
ground, as If by accident.
HE will find my lilies" she thought,
''and they will speak to him of me-"
AS the carriage containing it's fair oc-
cupant rolled away the landlady walked
wonderingly into the room Lillian had
invaded with her gentle presence.
Dear me, it is untidy! she NUT
tered, STOPPING down to brush up some
tobacco on the carpet. "Lor! what
beautiful flowers, all among the dust
and tobacco"
She bore them in triumph to her
kitchen, and placed them in water on
the dresser.
The lilies lasted for some days, and
they looked very nice in the landlady's s
vase.-New York News.

MAD BOAR NEARLY KILLS MAN.

George B. Burling. farmer, resid-

nearly killed on recent afternoon by
ferocious boar owned by Frederick
r. Townsend, whose country seat, Un-
keway farm, adjoins the Burling farm.
The boar, n costly prize winner OF

tie, in spite of the fact that he had been
warned of the animals ugly disposi.
tion, and he had let his little grand
child and nurse play with it.

went to the Burllng farm. Mr.. Bur-
ling seized club and started to drive

refused to go, and. turning with tusks
uplifted, rushed at Burling. The lat

AN ANGEL OF MERCY.

Hats OF to Mrs. Fl. A Harkson. The
story of her work as an angel Of
mercy at that wreck on the Jersey
Central first gives you glow in your
heart. and then makes you want to
cheer. When the terrible crash took
place she was in her back yard, which
is situated near the track. She didn't
lose time going through the house, but
seizing an axe, cut her way through
the back fence. To get the injured
into the building quickly she ordered
the rescuers to tear away part of the
back of the house. While attending
to the dying she saw some tramps
robbing wounded man who was ly-
ing In the kitchen. She drove them
out at the muzzle of revolver. Truly
heroic soul. No horrors daunted her
and no labors tired. She must have
the heart of woman, the courage Of
q soldier and the strength Of man.
Her neighbors should be proud of her.
And just think Of it, but for this ter
rible disaster it is possible that nobody
would have suspected that such hero
heroine is too weak a word-lived
in these parts. Long life and all honor
to her!-New York Sun.

Mere Opinion.

1t is foolish to try to win mans
good will by convincing him that he
doesn't know what he is talking about.
If people could always stop talking
at the right time every one might be
a victor in the strife.
The difference between fanatic
and crank is that the latter may
listen to reason IL properly dubbed.
A woman need not fear that her
husband is drifting away as long as
she can get him to button her waist
down the back.
A poor excuse is worse than none,
if it isn't believed.
Jewelry hath charms to soothe the
womanly breast.
Nothing makes woman so happy as
to see that her deares.. friend is get
ting wrinkled.-Chicago Record-Her'

The japanese divide the twenty-four
hours into twelve periods, of which
six belong to the night and six to the
day, their day beginning at sunrise and
ending at sunset.
Whether the day or night be long or
short there are always six periods in
each. To attain this the characters
or numerals on the scale are adjusta-
BILE.
Two Of them are set, one to agree
with the sunrise, the other with the
sunset, and the four characters be-
tween them divide the space into equal
portions.
Thus, when the period of daylight is
longer than the night, the day hours
will be proportionately longer than
those at night.
Another popularity in their scale is
that they use only six characters, those
from four to nine, and these read back
ward.-London Express.
