NORTH DAKOTA NEWS
Railroads.

The building of the 500 line through
northern Minnesota to the Canadian
boundary has stirred up the people Of
the North Dakota side of the valley to
an interest in railroad building such al
has not existed for years. There is
scarcely a town in tho valley that has
not some 500 project or foot. A meet
ing was held at Glasston and commit
tees were appointed for the purpose of
bringing about if possible, the build
Ing of a branch from Emerson to tho
Mclean cement mines west of Glass
ton. Similar meeting have been held
in most of the towns in Pembina coun-
ty, and in other counties there is SINH
interest Grafton is at work on a 500
line, and Grand Forks and Fargo have
boon thinking the situation over.
There is some interest at Grand
Forks in o project for a road from
Grand Forks southwest to Hope and
Valley City, striking Northwood, Hope,
Sherbrooke, and a number of smaller
places. The plan is to organize an in
dependent company, and then make
through arrangements with either the
500 or the Northern Pacific, which
ever road will prove the most amena-
BILE to reason.
There is some talk of the possibility
OF legislation repeating the law requir-
Ing railroads to run daily trains on all
roads. As a matter of fact this law is
now a dead letter, but in some circles
It is said that as long as it is on the
books, it operates as a hindrance to the
building of branch lines.

turned on the water at the COUNTY Jail

1t is said that his loss Of reason was
caused through his love for chickens.
1t is said that the day IN which he was
arrested q chicken got away from him
and he started after it, and in the ex-
element that followed when the fowl
eluded him he went insane.

APPROVED IN FRANCE.
Public Pleased That Treaty Has
Been NEGOTIATED.

-
Paris, Nov. 2.-The news of the
signing of the treaty of arbitration be-
tween France and the United States in
Washington is received here with the
warmest expressions of approval, par
ticularly in government circles, where
the treaty is regarded not only as a
strong bond between the two republics,
but also as an important extension of
Foreign Minister Delcasse's series of
peace treaties. The initiative was
taken over year ago, when Baron
'Estournelles de Constant, the leader
of the French arbitration movement,
wrote to President Roosevelt expressing
the hope that the Anglo-French en-
tente might have as a sequel a Franco
American entente.
President Roosevelt expressed his
hearty APPROVAL, saying that Secretary
Hay would take up the question. In
the meantime Foreign Minister Del
case and ambassador Porter went over
the subject here, and Secretary Hay
and Am bassador Jusserand opened pre-
liminary negotiations. The French
officials were favorable throughout,
and regretted postponement owing to
the question over Spanish ratification.
Ambassador Porter last night mani
tested the heartiest satisfaction at the
successful conclusion of the negotia.
tions. He said that the relations be-
tween the United tates and France
were fortunately so cordial that it was
hoped that the terms of the treaty
might never be revoked. However, he
added, the document will be highly
beneficial in giving definite treaty form
to the long existing friendship of the
two governments and peoples.
The public and press strongly ap-
prove of the treaty, mainly because of
the friendly attitude of France toward
the United States. and also AS another
notable achievement of M. Delcasse,
whose recent pacific influences in the
Anglo Russian crisis have emphasized
the benefit resulting from various en-
tentes he has succeeded in esta blishing

SHOULD SHAKE HANDS NOW.
Former French Foreign Minister
Thinks War Should Stop.

Paris, Nov. 2.-The prospect that
the Russo-Japanese war may last in
definitely is beginning to cause uneasi-
ness. The country is awake to the fact
that diplomacy had to strain every
energy to bring about pacific issue
of the recent Anglo Russian incident,
and it is idle to deny that there is gen.
eral apprehension that other incidents
of equal gravity may arise and prove
less amenable to adjustment.
This apprehension is probably
prompted by an important article by
M. Hanotaux, formerly minister of
foreign affairs, inst published. The
war, he says, may go on for years
without decisive results. Only one
thing has so far been accomplished
namely, the demonstration of the brav-
cry of the two armies. The most sim
pie coruse would be to shake hands
1t is high time to do so if the greatest
misfortunes are to be avoided, as it is
evident to most peaceful powers that
they are at the mercy of surprise or
a coup 'etat

OF the famous artists Of the stage.

touring Australia. New Zealand and
Tasmania. The return trip was made
via South America. after long stay
in London. On arrival in London, he
met Dion Roucicault. who asked him
if he intended to act. and what ma

that he intended to act If there was a
good opening, and said that he had a
great part in an Indifferent play called
Rip Van Wrinkle.
The result was The reconstruction Of
