SAD DEATH AT.
BOWBELLS
Mrs. ]. b. Donovan, Highly Respected
Resident, Succumbs to Appendicitis
Leaving Infant Boy Mothcrless--
Recent Rain Benefits Crops.

Special Correspondent,
Bowbells. N '. April 2S.-A pail
of gloom was yer the town
Thursday VIII y las learned that
Mrs. J. B. 7 az. nad succumbed to
a severe al TX of appendicitis. Death
relieved tie g erings of the suffering
patient at 8 o'clock Thursday forenoon
after a sickness Of but five days Mrs.
Donovan was formerly Miss Anetta
Silbaugh and was one of the best
known and most highly respected
young women of this vicinity. In Feb
ruary, 1905, she was married to ].
B. Donovan, of the firm of Donovan
Bros, hardware dealers. In February
of the present year a baby boy was
born to Mr.. and Mrs. Donovan, the
loss of the mother making very sad
phase of the death. The deceased
came to this place when the town was
in its infancy and has been one of its
most prominent women residents ever
since. She was a woman of sunny
and agreeable disposition which makes
her sad death one to be mourned by
all who knew her. The relatives of
the deceased woman are residents of
Veroqua, Wis. where she spent her
early womanhood days. At this writ
ing the time of the funeral has not
been announced.
The famous Bowbells country at the
present writing is being gifted by
slow soaking rain which has been in
progress the past twenty-four hours
1t is one of those kinds of rains which
makes the farmer happy, coming as
ii does at this time when it is needed
to start the wheat which is practically
all sown. The weather for the ten
days previous to the present rain was
such as to permit the farmers to be in
the field and accomplish great part
of their seeding. There is yet large
acreage OF oats and flax to be sown.
Rev NJ. B. Osmond, formerly pastor
of the NJ. f. church at this place, but
now of Balfour. is spending a few days
among his many friends. Rev. Os-
mond says that the world has dealt
favorably with him since leaving here
last fall and that he is much pleased
with his new charge.
EX-Commissioner S. S. Richardson
was in town today enroute to Minot
to look after business matters Sam
says he is putting in large crop on
his farm north of town and that he
expects to realize more from his farm
ing operations than he did while act
ing in his former official capacity.
The generous spirit of this place is
clearly shown when subscription
paper is passed around for some
worthy cause. A few days ago
farmer was burned out west of town,
losing all his seed grain and some live
stock, in fact practically all the world
ly goods he possessed. A subscription
paper was started and within few
hours more than two hundred dollars
was subscribed.

NEW 3O-STALL
ROUNDHOUSE
Great Northern Begins Tearing Down
Old ROundhouse Which Has Stood
for Last Quarter OF Century-Will
Make Room for Network of Tracks.

OW hOuHUHOuSe which Has $1,000
for Last Quarter Of Century-Will
Make Room for Network Of Tracks.
The officials of the Great Northern
made announcement today that a new
thirty stall roundhouse. with turn
table and everything complete, would
be erected in this city. to replace the
one which is now standing to the west
of the passenger and freight depots,
and which has afforded shelter for the
company's locomotives for something
like quarter of century past. The
old roundhouse contains fifteen stalls
and describes half circle. The new
roundhouse will describe a three
quarter circle and will be up-to-date
in every particular. 1t is to be To-
Gated on the vacant lot to the west
of the pest house. Before the structure
is completed, however. the site will be
filled in and around to the depth of
about two feet with sand and gravel.
The company intends to bring up to
grade the forty acres which 1t owns
in that locality.
This morning crew of men began
tearing down the north end of the old
roundhouse. This is in order that
tracks may be laid to the site of the
new freight depot, thus permitting con-
tractors to haul supplies to the i'm
mediate site without handling mater
ial more than once.
The new roundhouse will be the
most capacious between st. Paul and
Spokane.
