Between GlenWood and !
Emerson.
G. P. r. Connections There Will
Largely Expand Minneapolis

Within year the 500 line will have

is to be pushed to Emerson, where it
will connect with the Canadian Pa

spring, but that operation would Is3.
begin before fall.
This announcement is of even great
err Importance than the first informa-
ton last summer that the 500 would
build to the White Earth reservation,

will be pushed from the lower edge
Of the White Earth reservation thru
/
counties in almost a straight line to
Emerson. There will be about 40
miles Of easy grading thru a rich
farming and grazing country. Work
will begin as soon as the frost Is out
of the ground, and fall will see 500
line trains running to Winnipeg over
a line 43S miles long, a much shorter
| route than the system has ever had,
and as short as any road running out
| of Minneapolis.
The 500 is already operating fifty
, nine miles of the Glenwood extension
to Ottertail, Glenwood being 120
miles from Minneapolis.
To Share Duluth Trade.
A high official said to-day: ''This
will open a large territory to Mime
| apolis heretofore tributary to Duluth
and will make 26S miles of our line
| from Glenwood open to trade which
formerly went to Duluth. The steel
rails and all necessary material Is
! bought, and we are asking bids for
| the work, The construction Will be
| 140 miles from the present determined
end of the Glenwood extension

The 500 line will begin regular serv-
ice In q few days on the Brentwood
extension to Reserve, Wis.,, at the edge
| Of the Court Oreilles reservation. Re-
serve Is thirty-six miles from Rice
Lake on the main line and 1873 from
Minneapolis. The new extension

This alone is said by those well
versed in criminal law to be all that
is needed. A man is entitled, under
the law, to use force in self-defense,
as is necessary for self-protection.
The fact that Calderone continued to
stab his victim after he was beyond
the power of doing him harm is in
itself enough TO constitute murder.
A Scene in Court.
There was a dramatic scene when
Peter MARTINI keeper of the morgnes

brother, who was sitting near Calde-

aloud. The trial was interrupted un-
