RAILWAY TROUBLE
IN WHEAT CITY
Great Northern Company Now
Facing a Similar Difficulty
to the G. N. R.

Brandon, Aug. 1O.-The city council
at their regular meeting recently
threshed out until after. 1 o'clock the
different concessions asked for by the
Brandon, Saskatchewan & Hudson Bay
railway. The matter now is exactly
in the same position as 1t was before
AID the railway is no nearer getting
their requests granted by the city
council than they ever were. The
council only few days ago practically
drove the Canadian Northern from this
city by demanding that they should
build subways and overhead bridges
at street crossings, at the will of the
council; and now in the face of
practically unanimous expression by
the rate payers in favor of granting all
the requests, the majority of the alder
men are baking at every request made
by the railway, and unless the rate
payers take the matter into their own
hands, and force their representatives
to vote as requested by those who
elected them to Office, it is quite
probable that the Great Northern will
also give Brandon the go-by. Three
meetings of the council were held yes

FORFEITED HER RIGHTS.
Marriage to Second Husband Barred
Mrs. Mitchell From Estate of First.

Fargo, Aug. 1O-As result of her
second marriage before the estate of
her first husband had been settled,
Mrs. Albert N. Michel of Hunter has
forfeited her right to a homestead and
now Judge Hanson is considering the
objections raised by special guardian
Of her children against the mother re-
ceiving $1,000 which the widow claim
ed as exempt to her.
The matter was taken up before
Judge Hanson late yesterday afternoon
and the court has taken the case un-
der advisement.
When William Dixon of Hunter died,
Feb. 81, 1906, he left an estate valued
at $37 200. About month ago the
widow petitioned the court to set aside
as homestead the premises in which
she and her five children resided, and
also set aside the sum of $1,000. Be-
fore the court had acted upon the petit
ton, Mrs. Dixon was united in mar
riage to Albert N. Mitchell.
Immediately after the marriage Mrs.
Mitchell conceded that she had for
feited the right to the homestead but
still claimed her right to the $1,000.
This was disputed by L. L. Twichell,
special guardian of the children, and
the matter was taken into court.
The contention of the special guard
ian is that Mrs. Mitchell is only en-
titled to one-third of the $1,000, just
as she would be under the law of dis
tributiOn and no more, as result of
her marriage.

mankind. The sale of Science and
Health is not pushed The marked
demand for the book is occassi0ned
by its unparalleled value as key to
the scriptures
1T is quite true that Christian
Science literature is placed before the
public and in keeping with the con-
duct Of all other denominations, the
members of the Christian Science
church are expected to purchase and
circulate Its literature as far as pos
sible, but who can complain of this
since no one is or ever has been COM
PEELED to buy or sell Christian Science
literature. However the most of those
who have purchased Science and
Health and have practiced what 1t
teaches. are ready to testify that, aside
from the extraordinary spiritual bene-
fits which they have derived there
from, It has saved them great many
times its value in dollars and cents, BY
doing away with Doctors bills.
1.-THE estimate which the writer of
the article quoted. undertakes to make
OF the amount of money which Mrs.
Eddy made out of the Massachusetts,
Metaphysical college, Is pure guess
and oversh0ots the mark, since from
her earlier classes. Mrs. Eddy received
almost no compensation, and by means
of free tuition and necessary dis
counts she always made 1t possible
for all worthy applicants to be re-
ceivsd into her college, whether they
had money or not, and from her last
class Of seventy she has refused to
accept any compensation whatever,
