VALLEY CITY, n. D.; Oct. 4.-One
of the most shocking accidents in the
history of Barnes county occurred
about twelve miles north of this city.
Charles Ford, an engineer in charge
of a threshing rig on the farm of Will
liam Ayers, met an awful death. A
fire started under the engine and thu
flames threatened to injure it. Ford
mounted the footboard to get The en-
CINE out of danger. His clothing, sat
urated with oil, caught fire and he be-
came panic stricken and ran wildly
across the stubble field. the flames ell
veloping his figure.
The members of the crew gave
chase. but he dropped from exhaus-
ton before they could reach him. He
was about a quarter of a mile away
before the flames were extinguished
His body was literally roasted and he
died shortly afterward He was a we'll
known Barnes county farmer and

WILD SCRAMBLE FOR LAND
Two Townships In North WhatCom

OF SCRIP.
OPEN FOR SETTLEMENT IN few WEEKS

Far up in the northern part Of What
com county, close to the British CO.
lumbia line, there are two townships
that will be thrown open for settle
ment in from four to six months. In
these two townships the Chicago, Mil
waukee & st. Paul, and the Seattle
& Montana, which is the Great North
ern, hold scrip for about 10000 acres
of valuable timber. This was secured
in 1899. Should it be proved that the
scrip, or any part of it, is not good,
there will be a wild scramble for tim
Der that at 81 a thousand feet is worth
$25O,OOO.
R. H. Ober, United States deputy
surveyor, who has just completed
survey of the district, believes there
will be many contests over the valid
ity of the scrip, states a west side re-
port He does not say that any of the
scrip is useless, but leaves the i'm

of such being the case. If the right
to the scrip is attacked the railroads
can be depended upon to fight hard,
as they have evidently staked out the
land for it's railroad ties and the i'm
mense freight possibilities.
The most valuable timber, according
to ODER, will cruise from 10000 to
$4,000 feet to the acre. If it cruises
but $4,000 to the acre the stand will
reach the gigantic total of S5O,OOO,OOO
feet. All this is not fir and cedar, but
the greater part of the run grown
trees is. and the total value will run
close to the $1,OOO,OOO mark. Several
million feet is composed of the valu-
able Alaska cedar. A big rush Is ex-
pected when the opening day comes,
and the race will be to the quick and
the strong.

After following his deserving wife

August Wallemann, the man in the

The warrant on which Wallemann

was sent to flag the passenger in order
that when it arrived the two trains

The f1agman had not been gone long
when the engineer of the freight train
was seized with dread of an accident,
and to ease his mind a second brake
man was sent after the first. The
second flagman had gone only a few
hundred feet from the engine when
he met the passenger coming along at
full speed. He was successful in
stopping it, and climbing on the loco
motive he inquired why the train had
not stopped for the flag of his
brother brakeman. He was informed
that the train had not been tagged,
nor had the brakeman been seen.
