NORTH Dakota news.
Statue for Roosevelt.


Fargo, N. D., Nov. 15.-The people
of North Dakota do not regard Presi-
dent Roosevelt as a dead one, but
they have formed a Roosevelt Monu-
ment association for the purpose of
erecting a statue On the campus of
the North Dakota Agricultural col
lege. The tribute is particularly be-,
cause Roosevelt at one time owned a
ranch in North Dakota and spent
some time in the state, and largely
because of the respect and admira-
ton in which the man of the White
House is held by all residents of the
state. The idea originated with H..
o. Fjelde of Abercrombie.
United States Senator Hansbrough
is president of the association. Pres
ident Worst of the college vice presi-
dent, and DR.. Fjelde secretary and
treasurer. Funds will be raised by
popular subscription.
Gustave Vigeland, sculptor of Chris
tiana, Norway, and n of the most
celebrated sculptors of Europe has
been engaged to make the statue. tt
is planned to have impressive cere-
monies in connection with the UNI
yelling some time in 1908 and Presi-
dent Roosevelt will be invited to be
present.

From the confusing stories told the
coroner it was determined that Mr..
Barney deliberately shot himself while
alone, and soon after rising. AS the
bullet entered his body he fell un-
conscious upon the bed. The report
of the revolver startled the family.
DR.. George A. Dixon was summoned
and he called two other physicians.
Mr.. Barney was revived and to Dr..
Dixon, for 20 years his family physi-
clan, said:
doctor, this is an accident"
In reporting this to the coroner DR..
Dixon added: with this l coincide"
Mr.. Barney's Career.
Mr.. Barney was born in Cleveland,
O., in 1851. He was the son of A.
H. Barney, president of the United
States Express company. After grad
uating from Williams college in 1870
he married Miss Lilly Whitney, sister
of William c. Whitney, and settled
down to an active career in the bank
ing business of New York city.
AS his success in banking became
pronounced he determined to increase
the scope of his interests and became
connected with the stock exchange
firm of Rogers & Gould as a special
partner. At the same time he began
to make personal investments in New
York city property, and his keen In.
sight, coupled with a general upward
trend Of the market, made him very
successful for many years. AS an
officer or director he was connected
with "a concerns, largely financial in
stitutions. From some Of these he
was forced to retire when 1t appeared
that some Of his business ventures
were going against him.
