GARRISON BRANCH.
500 VIII Build q Branch Line to
AnamOOse.

500 Will Build a Branch Line to
AnamOOse.
The BalfOur Statesman reports that
the committee of Balfour business
men that went to Minneapolis last
week were royalty entertained by
Gen. Supt. Huntington and Engineer
Greene.
The trip was valuable as eleanor
of valuable and reliable information.
They learned that the branch from
Drake to the Garrison branch was a
reality, that the 500 commencing at
Minot had run out surveys all the way
to Anamoose and beyond, and that
the best grade was at Drake. This
branch is to be built with better
grade than the present main line and
the rails used will be heavier. 1t is
undoubtedly the intention to run this
line out to the coast. 1t will not con-
meet with Garrison but will run al
most due west from Drake and the
Garrison line will be built up to it.
From this line 1t will be a short cut
to Minot. The Garrison line will be
built in northwesterly direction to-
ward Calgary. AS early as last jan
uary we learned through a 500 con-
ductor running out of Minneapolis
that the Drake branch would be
built this summer and in connection
with the Garrison branch 100 miles
would be constructed and that this
branch tapping the main line from
some point near alfour would event.
ually run to the coast. He further
stated that 140 miles of the Flaxton
branch would be built this summer
and both were to head of the Great
Northern. The committee learned that
the branch in running from Drake
would run two miles north of the Dod-
gen buttes and that no town would he
built nearer than IL miles from Bal

pated this dance with a great deal of
pleasure-and the results justified the
time spent in dreaming of it. In fact,
1t was even more pleasurable than she
had anticipated, because she was the
only girl there from the city and being
in great demand never missed dance.
Tired, she wendell her way to the early
morning train weighted down with
large paper bag filled with big, yellow
hens eggs-from the freshly picked
crop maturing the day before which
the farm folks insisted on her taking
home with her. She arrived in Grand
Forks safely with her burden, and joy

frivilous ditty about spring. Then
came visions of what she was going to
do with those eggs-egg omelettes,
eggs on toast, sponge cake-and the
thousand and one things that fresh
hen fruit can be put to profitable use
She was just wondering If there was
really any truth in the couplet:

the sidewalk on DeMers avenue, and
her feet took a skyward slope. The
eggs also went up, and when they
came down she was the chestiest look

struck her about foot below her chin.
And there were scrambled eggs all
over her dress, and enough to spare
to cover a good portion of the side
walk. She arose and started up a
back street looking like bad actor
after the audience had handed him

A Few Stories From Washinkton
Legislative Corridors.

A loyal constituent of Senator Till
man named White met the senator at
noon on Monday. The senator had
something to say about President
Roosevelt and was in hurry.
Come around to the senatorial gal
lery. White" Mr.. Tillman said, "and
l will get you a seat. After l have
finished on the floor l will come out
and we will have visit"
The debate ran for tive hours. White
sat patient and listened. At the end
of that time he got up and said to the
gallery doorkeeper:
'My name is White. am a friend
of Senator Tillman. He brought me
here and l want to go out and look
around bit. l thought l would tell
you so l can get back in"
That's all right" said the door
keeper, but | may not be here when
you return. In order to prevent any
mistake will give you the password
so you can get your seat again."

Senator Elkins this afternoon. THE

criticism. but struggled to see good

time and then went out and bought
ticket. He returned and became the

out and buy ticket"
