1t is an 'ill wind tnat blows no
one good" Ta..is is tue o, the
recent storms which have pre-
vailed here for tae past two
weeks ormore, and,in their Sc
verify have played havoc with
railroads, telegraph and passage
ways generally, besides railroad
ing business in every respect.
The wagon road from Bristol
to Modena is impossible from
a haulage stand point and freight
wagons ladened with ore are
scattered for miles along the
route unable to move. The road
from here to Caliente is in such
bad condition that the stages
have been unable to deliver the
mail in forty-eight hours. The
railroad between Modena and
Caliente, a distance of fifty miles
is so badly washed out and torn
up that trains are unable to run,
and it is estimated that it will
take ten days or more to repair
the road sufficient to get mail
over that part of the line. The
damage done to the railroad
alone can scarcely be conceived
at present, for besides the cost of
repairing the road-bed the per-
ishable freight now going over
the road from California east
must be enormous.
The damage done this section,
especially Pioche in retarding
traffic, is great enough to say
the least, in view of the large
tonnage coming in and going out
of the camp. Prior to the recent
storm this tonnage was so great
that sufficient te4n3 colld n3t be
secured to move it at advanced
prices and the incoming a q out
going freight is expected to in
crease 500 per cent within the
next go days. There are now
thirty five big freight teams at
St. George waiting for the roads
to dry up 80 they can come here
and help move the freight to and
from the railroad. To more
fully appreciate the possible dam
age done this community by
this unusal admostpherical freak
one must note the fact that
several parties are now at differ
ent points in southern Nevada
rustling freight teams for the
traffic at Pioche.

tain 1000 feet high The history Of
this project is one % danger, daring
and heroism. Flowing III deep can
Eyons in places more than half a mile
below the surface of the country,
over precipices. through narrow
|gorges, the essunnis son Canyon had
never been explored until MI. L.
Fellows Of the Reclamation Service
and one companion essayed the feat.
& They fastened their instruments
and provisions on an inflated nhber
mattress and set forth upon what
proved to be a most thrilling and ex-
citing adventure. Over q greater
portion Of the trip they were SO far
below the party which followed them
along the brink Of the canyon that
no voices could reach them. At other
points they were lost from sight,
during which time the anxious
watchers were fearful of their safety.
After several days they finally
emerged by way of the Devils Slide"
having in the last hours of the trip
suffered loss of their boat, instru-
ments and provisions, and narrowly
escaped death.
Fortunately Mr.. Fellows had his
notes in oil skins secured to his per-
son. From these notes 1t was possi-
BILE to select a site in the canyon for
a tunnel through which The waters Of
the Gunnison river will he carried.

The Formation Of a Council Of the
Y. g. u. Indicates the Importance
Of Bismarck as a Commercial Cen.
ter. iE5. M /, "a
Saturday evening Bismarck Coun.
Gil No. 325, United Commercial TRAY,
elers, was organized at Maennerchor
hall with 26 charter members.
Grand Senior Chancellor w. d
Jacobs of Aberdeen, S. D., was pres.
ent and instituted the council and in,
stalled the following officers: VII
Senior Counselor-R. L. Best.
Junior Counselor--H. IS. Smith.
/, Past Counselor. D. Davies. Vi
Secretary and Treasurer l.

Conductor-Thomas Lennon.
Page-F. w. Lambie.

Executive Committee Elmer q
Gronnitz, J. D. McCusker, J. K. Dye
George 8. Stephenson. -. 1921
The object of the order is to unite
fraternall!y the commercial travellers;
to give moral and material aid sc
members and those depending upon
them, and to pay $4,000 in case OF
accidental death and $25 weekly bene
fits in case of sickness. T.
These men all make Bismarck thei,
headquarters, and probably there are
as many more travelling out of this
city who it is hoped will join the
chapter, making it one Of the strong
est in the state. 5& u J,$ I'D.
Such an organization is indicative
of the rising Importance Of this city
as a commercial point. The fact thai
SO many travelling men reside here
shows that the surrounding territory
is growing immensely important tc

when this city will be the headquar

IN evidence, SO there was no mistak-
ing the significance of the. occasion.
A number of amusements were en-
joyed, refreshments were served and
several pleasing musical numbers
closed the delightful evening.
& They Are cracker-J acks The Min
strel aggregation Of the Knights Of
Pythias lodge are getting their busi-
ness down fine. The boys have been
lying awake nights thinking up good
things and there will be boquets for
everybody when the. show is pulled
off. The gang will meet tonight at 8
o'clock to rehearse and add another
gag or two; here and there to make
things go smooth. They have a lot of
good features the program will
be diversified enough to- suit anybody
and will knock the spots off the
travelling aggregations. r

An Appreciation-Robert l.. Jones,
the evangelist, certainly was appre-
ciated by the boys. The other night
he was called to the door to meet
fifteen members of the Presbyterian
Boys club. Edwin Cochrane in a
few well chosen words told Mr.. Jones
how we'll the club esteemed him, how
they had noticed that his bible was
coming to pieces and that they would
like to purchase him a new one. He
then handed Mr.. Jones an envelope
which contained seven silver dollars.
Mr.. Jones was much touched by the
gift, and responded feelingly. The
company broke up with three rousing
cheers for the evangelist.
Survey Decentralization Independ-
ent: A large crew of surveyors ar
rived in Garrison Tuesday and the
head engineer got a livery team and
drove out northeast the same evening.
They have instructions to survew in
northeasterly direction towards Vol
tair. The 500 is to build line west
from Voltair through the Ryder, coun-
try this summer, and the extension
from here Is to connect with that line,
which will give the 500 direct line
from Bismarck to Minot. Voltair is a
town on the main line of the 500,
about twenty-five miles southeast
from Minot., When building opera
tions commences in the spring CARR
son will certainly be lively town.
Novel School House - Western
North Dakota probably has the most
remarkable school house in the coun-
try, as to building material. The
structure is "a feet square, one story,
and built entirely of petrified wood,
save the roof, which is shingled.
The; wood of the ancient forest that
covered the ,prairies of -, Hettinger
county has become agatized, and in
the absence of stone the people of
New England, little town about 30
miles south Of Dickinson, have built
their primative educational institution
Of this beautiful petrification. Some
care has been exercised in the con-
struction Of the house so that the ma
terial shows off to the best advantage
and when the sun shines the build
ing glisteneds like crystal.

things was away ahead Of Boston.
Such a remark from Bostonian
naturally caused surprise, and upon
being queried as to the "why' of it,
said: because you have q good tele-
phone system and your dogs are well

dogs are SO well bred. .35 4
Old Dakotans Harry Bringhurst
writes from Seattle that while in
Tacoma the other day he met James
Marshall Of Bismarck, and says that
Frank Donnelly is in the hospital
there. Also that John A. Rea is in
the real estate business in that city
and that Carl Peterson, who for many
years travelled in North Dakota for
as drug house, has located in Seattle
and opened an agency for his old
firm. 10 - -.E t ysg :. !.
d Caught at Steeie---William Larson,
who escaped from the state reform
school at. Mandan several days ago,
was recaptured on Friday afternoon
at Steele, N. D., and was taken hack
to the school. The boy was sent to
the reform school from Fargo about
two years ago. About six months ago
he was released from the school on
parole and returned to Fargo, but was
arrested by the police on the charge
of svagrancy and returned to Mandan.
Large Audiences-The services at
the Methodist Episcopal church yes
terday, were unusually well attended.
At the close of the morning worship
many persons united with the church
by letter and, probation. The church
was filled in the evening, the service
being of an ,evangelistic character.
The. singing by the large chorus
choir contributed to the success of
the service. Every department of the
church is in a very fourishing condi-
ton. .'
Wants to Name a 500. Town--Miss
Agnes Smith Of Minnewaukan. wants
the, privilege of naming the proposed
new town on the 500 near, Garrison.
Miss Smith owns a claim about half
a mile distant and there is a charm
about the name "Arnett" that ap-
peals to, her yainly and she writes to
Hon John satterlund urging him to
enlist his efforts in behalf Of her re
=quests And King John how can his
courteous chivalrous nature with
stand the appeal? 4, .
New 500 Train-Supt. Derrick has
gone to st. Paul to confer with the
500 railroad officials in regard to the
time table for the new 500 passenger
train west of Hankinson. II is under
stood that according to present plans
this train will cease to be a purely
passenger train at Wishek and from
there west the day coach and, sleeper
will be attached to a freighth train.
The train will leave Wishek at 4 a.
M. and go through to Garrison, leav-
ing the sleeper here, but these ar
rangements may he changed il the
effort to have the passenger train
come through to this point succeeds.
