AFTER TWENTY-SlX YEARS
(By H. D. Johnson.)

MT. s. S. Russ, known as Straight Shot" in Colorado stopped off between trains for few hours to visit friend of his at the saw mill whom he not seen for twenty six years.
 Mir. Russ is en route to the Philippine Islands, where he, with two other men, expect to engage in the lumber business MT. Russ is 6S years old and has never been sick a day in his life, and has slept out doors more than 30 years of his life.
 The writer of this article became acquainted with MT. Russ 26 years ago next summer. At that time the writer was employed in small mill in the western part of Gun nison county, Colorado, working all day and until midnight, while MT. Russ was prospecting and sink ing on three fairly good looking claims.
 Several times when Mir. Russ run short of supplies that sustain the life of prospector, the writer advanced the wherewith to secure more with, and later on in the season MT. Russ repaid the writer about half of the amount, and upon MT. Russ late visit to Williams the writer, after period of twenty six years, received the balance with interest compounded several times, also free pass across the ocean in case the writer desired to go.
 MT. Russ has seen some of the ups and downs of this life. Some twenty years ago he sold his claims in Colorado in the form of a pool with other claims, the amount being $50,000. MT. Russ, for his part, received $15,0OO cash, but had to give other parties almost $5,0OO who had made the .deal go through. MT. Russ has made success since then, mostly in min ing and in the lumber business, and is now making every calcula- tion to live and do business for many years to come.
 Mir. Russ takes great pleasure in relating some great hunting stories one of which is fresh in the mind of the writer, that we, in company with another man by the name of General" Wall, participated in, the time being consumed was six weeks.
 On September 15, 1881, Mir. Russ and the writer left Irwin for Gun nison, where we were to purchase our hunting outfit and where General Wall was to meet us. We left Irwin at break of day and as we had thirty miles to walk we hit the trail good and hard for five hours, when halt was called for dinner.
 My outfit consisted of two pairs of blankets, good trout fishing pole, frying pan, coffee pot and two tin cups, making a carrying pack of about thirty pounds, while MT. Russ had Winchester rife and provisions to last us on our trip to

A lady from Chicago came here, With her handsome gowned daughter, so dear, Who said to her beau ''get me one of those beautiful Valentines at the Racket Store you know" They're to be married real soon, I

Williams news., 1907-02-02

Gunnson. The writer IS pleased to say he still has the trout fishing pole and the two pair of blankets, which have been in constant use by him ever since that date except this winter, as they, like the writer, have become "faded and grey" and his wife has quietly laid them away.
 While MT. Russ was starting fire and doing the frying of the fat pork, the writer had been whip ping the waters of a small creek, where we had stopped for dinner and in less than twenty minutes the writer had landed an even dozen of spreckled trout, the average weight being about one pound each. AS l am writing this article l can almost smell the odor of fried trout, good bread and coffee.
 While we were partaking of our monday meal, you can imagine our suprise upon beholding, not sixty yards away, our first deer. MT. Russ reached for his rifle and bringing it to his shoulder with a quick movement, discharged it seemingly without taking aim. As soon as the smoke had cleared away we saw a deer galloping away at least 200 yards distant, and I said to MT. Russ, "there goes your deer" He looked at me with a sarcastic smile but did not say a word We finished our dinner and not a word was exchanged, and l saw 1 had said something 1 should not have said and I decided would thereafter say less and think more. As soon as our dinner was finished 1 proceeded to get things in readiness to resume our walk to Gunnison. I saw MT. Russ taking off his boots and stockings and leaving them near the fire he waded across the creek and went directly to the place where the deer stood at the time we saw 1t, and after a few moments he returned with a fine buck across his shoulder. The one we saw going away on the gallop, no doubt, was doe that we did not see at the time Mr. Russ done the shooting. When MT. Russ laid the deer on the ground l saw that the bullet from his 45-45 bottle neck black powder shell had hit the deer square on the end of the nose and came out just between the horns. producing instant death. I spoke several times about the deer but Mir. Russ had no time to talk; in fact he seemed heart broken to think that Inferred that the same deer he had shot at was running away, and me knowing that he had the reputation of ''straig ght shot,"
 Mir. Russ, after taking proper care of the deer and hanging same in tree nearby, except the heart and one ham which I put in my blankets, making at least ten pounds more of a load to carry, we at once started down the trail in the direction of Gunnison, MT. Russ taking the lead, and the way he flew over the ground was a eau tion. 1, however, managed to keep from ten to thirty feet behind him, and in this way we had gone at least eight miles when I saw he was perspiring quite freely and showing signs of fatigue.
 As he passed a bunch of sage brush a rabbit jumped therefrom and went up over a small ridge. l let my blankets drop and giving the war whoop of Comanche Indian started after the rabbit, giving the whoop at every jump, and after going just over the crest of the hill I saw another rabbit at my right

JOLLY BUNCH
Enroute to Minot to Organize New
ElkS LODGE

The Elks must have certainly had a
time of it in Minot last Saturday,
when, In the evening Minot Lodge No.
1889, was instituted. A special train
from Crookston and intermediate
points, passed through the city, en-
route for Minot about II o'clock in the
morning. The Eagles band turned
out to meet them, and their music was
appreciated at the depot, by the
trainload of visitors to Minot. Those
visitors were certainly a jolly bunch,
too. The Elks band of Crookston was
aboard the special, and each member
wore a different kind of costume.
There were hay seeds, weary Willies,
Happy Hooligans, policemen, both fat
and thin, and drum majors galore.
After stopping in the city long enough
to change engines. the happy train
load sped on their westward way.
Yardmaster Mccoy of the Great North
ern was about the depot at the time.
He looked good to the bunch, and was
forcibly put on board the train, and
started for Minot. Ray Young, man
ager of the Star, had a narrow escape
from accompanying them against his
will. After numerous and earnest
pleadings Of business before pleas
ure," Ray was turned loose.
And they must have had a great
time that evening. Prominent Elks
from all over the state were in attend
ance, Grand Forks, Crookston, Fargo,
Jamestown and Bismarck being we'll
represented. Senator Hansbrough,
State Senator Little, Congressman
Marshall and Gronna, Speaker Twitch-
ell of the house, and Lieutenant Cover
O R. T. Lewis, we're also in attend
ance. About fifteen of the local Elks
boarded the special at this city.
After the initiatory ceremonies and
the election Of officers a banquet was
served at the Leland hotel. Covers
were laid for four hundred, and the
Elks dispersed at a late hour.

Bryan advocated a law to protect de-
positors from exactly such conditions
as occurred in New York during the

he said:
How glorious it is to be a heaven

congress could not have appreciated
the wonderful advantages of such a
law! Had they appreciated it, we
would not have needed yesterday the
patriotism Of J. Pierpont Morgan,
that prompted him to throw twenty

a critical moment, twenty-five mil
lions of government money, ten mil
lions of Rockefeller's money, and the
strenuous labor Of public-spirited and

President issues Annual Proclamation
or ThankSdiyinQ

President Roosevelt has issued the
annual Thanksgiving day proclama-
ton. 1t is as fololws:
"Once again the season of the year
has come when in accordance with the
| custom of our ~forefathers for genera
| lions past the president appoints the
| day as an especial occasion for all u
| people to give praise and thanksgiving
to God.
During the past year we have been
free from famine, from :pestilence,
from war. We are at peace with all
| the rest of mankind. Our natural re-
sources are at least as great as those
of any other nation. We believe that
in ability to develop and take advan-
tage of these the average
man of this nation stands at least as
high as the average man of any other.
| Nowhere else in the world is there
, such an opportunity for free people to
develop to the fullest extent all it's
powers of body, of mind, and Of that
which stands above both body and
mind-character.
Much has been given us from on
i high and much will rightly be expect
ed of us in return. Into our care ten
talents have, been entrusted, and we
! are to be %pardoned neither If we
sauander and waste them, nor yet if
! we hide them in a napkin, for they
! must be fruitful in our hands aver
, throughout the ages, at all times and
among all peoples. Prosperity has
been fraught with danger and 1t be-
hooves us to beseech the giver Of all
things that we may not fall into the
love of ease and of luxury; that we
may not lose our sense of moral re-
| sponsibility; that we may not forget
| our duty to God and to our neighbor.
"a great democracy like ours, a de-
mocracy based upon the principles of
orderly liberty, can be perpetuated
only If in the heart of the ordinary
citizen there dwells a keen sense of
righteousness and justice: We should
earnestly pray that this spirit of
righteousness and justice may grow
ever greater In the hearts of all of us
and that our souls may be inclined
both toward virtue that fell for gen
tleness and tenderness, for loving
kindness and forbearance one with
another and toward those no less ne
cessary virtues that make for manli-
ness and rugged: hardwood, D with
out these qualities neither nation nor
individual can rise ID, the level Of
greatness. 52 s:s T. !. Il
Nov, therefore, I, Theodore
Roosevelt, president OF the United
States, do set apart Thursday, the 2sfh
day of November, as q day OF general
Thanksgiving and prayer. and on that
day I recommend that the people shall
cease from their daily work and Id
