Mandan-No doubt the largest fam.
lily of beavers in North Dakota, and
perhaps the largest In the United
States, is on John McCrary's land at
the mouth of Cat Tail creek, near
Winona, this state.
The beavers have made a pond by
building a dam a half mile long across
the low lands at the mouth of the
creek. The dam is from four to five
feet high and is made Of mud, sticks
and logs. The pond owe from forty
to sixty acres and Is from two to six
feet deep.
The beavers seem anxious to enlarge
their pond and are continually build.
ing their dam higher. But whenever
Mr.. McCrary thinks they are covering
too much territory with water he
breaks the dam and the beavers COM
memo to repair the break the follow
ing night. They have force enough
to do as much work in one night as
three good men with spades could
do in n day.
No one who looks at the amount Of
work they have done and the amount
of food they are putting up for the
winter, would estimate the number at
less than 200 to 400.
They commenced to build their dam
nearly fifteen years ago, and no one
has been allowed to trap or disturb
them since.

MARVIN

Arthur Carl Anderson, who died
Sunday. August 18th, at his late home
in kilborn township was the son Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Hans Anderson of Os-
CECILIA township. He was born Janu-
ary 25th, 1884, at the home near Mar
vim, and was t~wenty-three years and
seven months old at the time of death.
He was married to Miss Maggie Cross
a daughter of the late Melvin Cross
and Mrs. Olive Cross of Kilborn
township or May 4th. A son Melvin
was born to them June 4th, 1904. In
A1thur's death this community has
lost one of its best citizens, the devot-
ed wife a loving husband. the son a
model father. the parents a most al
fectiOnate and dutifulson, the brothers
and sisters a manly brother, who was
always ready with kindly deeds.
He was laid to rest in the Milbank
cemetery TUESDAY. August 9th. He
had visited the cemetery some months
ago. and being greatly pleased with
it's location and beauty. made the re-
mark to his wife that If he should die,
he wOuli like to be buried there and
so his wish a carried out. the funer-
al going from the Methodist church.
A large congregation <of his old
neighbcrs and friends had assembled
and listened to the sermon by the
pastor and FOLLOWED the hearse to the
cemetery.
The floral pieces were numerous and
beautiful, presented by loving friends,
as a token of their affection for the
deceased, and sympathy for the sor-
rowing wife, mother father, and sisters
and brothers.
Arthur suffered terrible for five
months with wonderful patience and
tortitude, the disease starting as a
simple ailment, gradually developed
to such an extent that the best medical
aid to be secured could not cope with
it and he at last succumbed to the
dread monste death
The sympathy of the whole COM
munity goes out to the Borrowing wife,
the father, mother, the brothers and
sisters, in, this their great sorrow and
at1iiction.' May they take comfort in
the knowledge that his we'll balanced
life has been rewarded with the new
life ever lasting: not dead but gone
before.
