EAST GRAND FORKS
BOYS DROWNED.

Two boys, Will Odegard and Ralph
Johnson were drowned Sunday after
noon in the Red river. Another boy,
Victor Gies, narrowly escaped a
similar fate, being pulled from the
water just in time to save his life. =
The accident occurred Sunday
afternoon at $50 O'Clock in East
Grand Forks. The three boys were
on the river in canvas canoe, about
100 feet from shore. The place is
generally known as the slough, but
the high water has made it part of
the river.
Many people along the street saw
the accident, but were powerless to
assist the unfortunate lads.

OPENING AT THE
K. J. ia ARALSETH co.

The second floor department in the
store of X. J. Taralseth Co., was
opened to the public on Monday and
a large stream of ladies' was seen all
DAY ascending and descending -the
handsome oak stairs leading to said
department. In this large and we'll
lighted room, which was formerly
coupled as lodge room by the Masonic
fraternity, the Taralseth Co. has
ample space for displaying a large
variety of goods which formerly we're
crowded into corners or such small
space that many of the regular
customers even were unaware that
they we're carried in stock. On this
floor is found the carpet and rug
department, with full line of the
latest styles and patterns in
Brussell's, Administers, Oriental rugs
and other floor covering. Along the
walls are display racks for small rugs
TAPESTRIES, lace curtains, ladies'
skirts, dresses, cloaks, Jackets etc.
A large number of counters in the
center of the room are heavily laden
with articles for .women's wear. On
this floor also is the dress making
parlor with large fitting and trying
room. This department is in charge
of Miss Fahey, and it is bound to be-
come very popular with the ladies
of Warren and vicinity, filling as it
does long felt want. With the
added room and other improvements
the store of X. J. Taralseth Co. is
certainly a credit to the city. The
buying public will appreciate the
enterp. ise Of this store.

GREAT NORTHERN
TO Build TO OSLO
Reported that Old Survey Will be
Made Use Of During the
Coming Summer

1t is reported that the Great Nor
thern has decided to build a line
from East Grand Forks to Oslo this
summer. Some two or three years
ago, the Great Northern had a route
surveyed north along the Red River.
to touch Oslo and several other cities.
For the last year, it has been con-
sidered that the proposition was
dead, but now it is claimed that the
company is figuring on making the
extension during the summer.
The line from East Grand Forks to
Oslo is one that is very much needed.
1t would give direct communication
to the Minnesota section of the 500
line. Nothing definite could be
learned in regard to the proposition.

CHAIN LETTER STA ARTED.

Masons of Ohio have, started a
series of chain letters for the purpose
of raising money for a memorial fund
to be used in erecting monument
to the memory of the martyred presi-
dent, William Mckinley. Crooks
ton people have received letters
although they are yet very low
numbers, as. the movement is just
started. One of the letters received
here was numbered only SO. The
idea is that each person who receives
letter sends ten cents to Judge Day
at Canton, for the fund and also
sends three letters to other friends
who are to do the same thing.

BUILD DITCHING MACHINES.

BUILD III I'LL ~ " MAUI N ES.
Donald Mcmillan and seven other
men are at work on two ditching
and rodd-makiug machines at Ste-
phen that they expect to have finished
in about twelve weeks. The machine
is patented and has been worked
with good results. 1t is fitted with
a SO horse power engine geared to 500
H. z. and cuts and finishes the
ditch, leaving all the dirt in a road
grade on one side. 1t is being made
for the Hubert company, and will
be first used on county bitches Dorth-
west of Stephen.
The Hubert company is a large
Iowa concern who own great deal
of land in the vicinity of Stephen
and they are building the machines
for their own use principally,
although they will also do work for
the county with them. the ma
chimes are of a verv peculiar style.
They are called the walking dredge
because Of the fact that they actual
y walk across the country. They are
furnished with long arms, or more
properly speaking, legs, a pair of
which are fastened at both the front
and rear and they propell the mach
inc along with kind of snake-like
movement. They are something like
the dredges used in water for lower
ing the dept tn of the river bed and
are too heavy to put on wheels. Sc
veral other dredging machines are
being built in this vicinity and will
be started at work as soon as the
ground and weather premit. The
vast amount Of ditching to be done
in northern Minnesota makes it i'm
preative that new and quicker met
