Wednesday, Sept. 9.
No Congregational College.

Rev. DR.. Shaw, Of Fargo, was
here last week several days con-
ferring with a committee OF the
citizens, regarding the establish
ment OF a Congregational Col
lege here. For some time that
denomination has had itseyes on
Minot, believing this to be an
excellent educational point, but
have not the means to put in a
school here. 1t has been pro-
posed that the people Of this city
raise by popular subscription
$4,000. But the .Congrega-
tionalists do not propose to put
in an amount nearly as large as
this. The Independent would
like to see this college start here,
but believes too much should not
be asked from our business men.
A college will be self supporting.
Then why cannot the Congrega-
tionalists manage to give as
much as they would have our
merchants give. An unsuccess-
full effort was made to rent DR..
Mohn's hospital for the school.
School will not be started this
wear in Minot, but it is said an
effort will be made for next year.
Many in the city are inclined to
believe that there being no Con
gregational church in the city, it
will be hard to raise the required
money.
The committee was composed
Of the following: Erie Ramstad,
]. A. Erickson, J. S. Murphy, A.
LeSueur and JAS. Scofield.

Travelling Engineer Injured.

In a rear end collision between
two light engines, in the Great
Northern yards in this city Satur-
day night, A. B. Ford, travelling
engineer, of the Dakota Division,
came near being crushed between
the tenders. Mr.. Ford had just
gotten down from the cab OF one
engine and in passing around
the back arrived just in time for
the second one to catch him. He
