men to get what they want.
The Canadian Pacific is building
line northwest from this point to the
elbow Of the South Saskatchewan,
which is opening up new and rich
country with many homesteads still
available. The Canadian Pacific rail-
way has made excellent arrangements
here for handling the rush of settlers,
but it is reported that the influx is so
great at Portal. the boundary point,
that the customs inspectors are away
behind. A week ago there were said
to be over 200 carloads of settlers
effects awaiting inspection at Portal.

PASS THROUGH MOOSE JAW
Thousands of Honeseekers from the
States Make that Point on
Way to Alberta. NJ

Saskatchewan, Can.-The people Of
Moose Jaw probably see more of the
American movement into western
Canada than those of any other town
in the west. This is the operating
junction of the 500 line from Mime
apolis and St. Paul with the main line
of the Canadian Pacific. III
Seventy-five per cent of the set
tiers from the states come over the
line, and changing cars here necessi-
tates stop of from 40 minutes to
several hours, and sometimes two or
three days. From this point the set
tiers can go west to Alberta and north
and east into Saskatchewan.

LINE FROM ASHWA
PROGRESSING
SLOWLY
Reported That Mcdonnell of
Duluth Has Quit Contract
for Extension.
special to the Evening Times.

SPGCIUI 10 INC LSChsh8
Duluth, May 23.-Although officials
of the Duluth. Rainy Lake & Winnipeg
line have made no statement concern
ing the matter no doubt is said to exist
that p. Mcdonnell who was awarded
the contract for the construction of
the line from Ashwa to the information
al boundary, will have nothing further
to do with the work. 1t Is under
stood that he has withdrawn alto
gether, and that the railroad company
will build on the extension ITSELF or
else relet the contract
Mr.. McDonnells intentions were all
right, but when he got fairly into the
Job he found that he had taken hold
of something that was a good deal
bigger and harder to handle than he
had at first supposed. The construc-
ton of this piece Of track will be one
of the most difficult jobs in the rail-
ROAD line that has been tackled in
Minnesota for long time, owing to
the nature of the country through
which te road will run. and Mr.. Nc
Donnell is said to have concluded that
to continue the work would mean
a big money loss.
Just what steps were taken to re-
lease him from all responsibility in
the matter are not known. but ii is
understood that the work was pro-
crossing SO slowly that it became evil
dent to the railroad officials that their
line would not be completed until a
date much later than was originally
figured on. This made the outlook a
serious one. for it is desired to have
the work completed at the earliest pos
sible date, in view of the fact that
two other lines, the Great Northern
and Minnesota & International. are
building toward the border. OF are
about to do so.
For this reason it is important that
the Duluth, Rainy & Winnipeg be
finished as soon as circumstances will
permit, to get in ahead of the Compel
ing lines. When the Rainy Lake peo-
pie found how things were going. and
that there was apt to be big delay III
the construction work. they began to
get worried, it appears, and when OPP
portunity finally presented itself. were
not averse to releasing the Duluth
man from his contract. and taking up
the work themselves. The contract
may be relet. but it is considered like
ly that the road will look after build
ing the extension itself.
Mr.. Mcdonnell has already taken in
large amount of supplies, and put
quite number of men at work More
men will probably be sent into the dis
trict within the next few days. and the
job will be pushed with all possible
speed. Much of the territory to be
traversed by the extension is of very
swampy character. and building OPP
erations will be expensive. and carried

Cincinnati.-A fight between a mon

death of the former after a desperate
struggle lasting less than five min
utes, occurred few days ago in
Elmwood place. The monkey was the
property of an Italian organ grinder
strolling through the village. The
gamecock belongs to resident of
Linden avenue. The monkey broke
away from its master to chase two
boys who were teasing it and ran into
the residents yard
There it met the bird and engaged
it at once. In furious struggle the
gamecock blinded the monkey and
succeeded in planting it's spurs in the
monkeys side and reaching a vital
spot.
