An Independent reporter visit
ed Whites Ice Cream factory
Wednesday and found nine men
as busy as Turks. When Mr..
White was asked how many gal
Ions of his excellent product were
put out every day, he smiled and
said, swell, were satisfied with
our business"
The White Bros. ought to be
satisfied for their customers are
all we'll pleased with their pro-
duct and their territory is being
extended each week. The writer
can remember not over three or
four wears ago when one man
was the whole thing IN that fac
tory. He solicited the orders,
manufactured the cream, ship
ped it and did his own collecting.
He was busy, but he made things
GO and soon had to increase.

sides other attractions.
Something will be doing the

Bowery dances and other at

Minot is about the only city OF
the Northwest that will attempt
a Fourth of July celebration OF
any kiEd, and the crowds will BE-
very large. Many wish to come
here to witness the great i'm
provements which had been
made curing the past year or
two and it will be a splendid op-
portunity to greet your friends.

his untimely death has cast a
spell Of gloom over his many
friends. Forest was a splendid
type of a young man. Careful
as to the quality of his associ-
ates. industr Gus, honest and
manly, he won the respect of all
who knew him. He was a good
Christian young man, always
living a just and upright life. :

some months in California in
hopes that he would overcome
the disease, but when it was seen
that his days were numbered, he
came home to spend the last days
with his loved ones.
Only a week or two ago, For
est was taken on his cot to the
Burlington picnic that he might
greet his many old time friends

The Difference.

Last Saturday we had an Op-
portunity OF seeing many people
visit NIinot from a distance Of a
good many miles. They came in
to see the elephant. As we stood
surveying the passing crowd we
couldn't help but notice thegreat
contrast in the people. There
was the man who had left his
wife and little ones to come to
town on business" He didn't
care to see the show, but went
anyway just to keep abreast of
the times. The little fellows
would have enjoyed seeing the
elephants and the bears but they
would have gotten so tired. OF
course the wife never gets weary
OF the prairie home, and she's
supposed to be a permanent fix
ture anyway.
AS we stood pondering over
the subject. another picture
greets our eye. There's d fellow
who has driven in twenty miles
before 10 o'clock. Oh course he
got up befure breakfast, and SO
did the kids, bless 'em. Why,
they didn't sleep all the night
before. If they did, they We're
feeding the elephants peanuts in
their sleep and watching the
monkeys hopping about the
cages. Then the wife with the
happy smile on her face. The
ride did hel good, and altho she
loves her prairie home, it seems
good to get away for & day, and
home is all the sWeeter when she
returns. What's the difference
ii the youngsters have a mass OF
taffy. candy in their dirty little
fists. They're going to see the
trained ponies. the clowns and
the man eat fire Readers, there s

Geo. l.. Stroup, a prominent

Mr.. Stroup and wife were in

bolt struck the kitchen chimney.

ing it. Two Of the girls were at
home. Miss Edna, a young wo-
man of nineteen, was in the act
OF opening the oven door to the
stove, having a batch of bread in
the oven, when the lightning
struck. She was stunned and al
most killed.
She recovered within a short
time and with her sister began to
carry out furniture from the
burning structure. The fire was
soon noticed in Glenburn, a half
mile to the north and soon hum
dreds of willing hands were doing
all in their power to put out the
fire, but the entire building was
doomed.
Miss Edna was black and blue
in the face when the crowd ar
rived, and must have had a very
narrow escape from death. She
was taken to the home Of one of
the neighbors in a buggy. Very
little furniture was savedand the
loss to Mr.. Stroup will aggregate
$2500. He had allowed the in
surance to lapse but a few days
before. He had carried 5000 on
the house and contents. This is
a terrible blow financially to Mr.
Stroup. Kind neighbors imn1e-

within a few minutes 5000 was
raised for him. The list is still
