When the bill first appeared be-

tended to create. the two new
districts and name the. Judges
at the election next year.. but
when the law WAS placed upo1,

The directors of the North
Dakota School of Forestry met
last Saturday in this city to
consider the bids for the new
$25, 600 building to be erected
in Bottineau this year by the
state.
Architect J. H. Shannon was
here from Grand Forks, and
there were three bidders for
the job, which were as follows:
Contractor Finnie of Devils
Lake, D. A. Dinnie of Minot,
and Edmund White of this city.
After reconsideration of the
bids, the job was let to our
home contractor and builder,
Edmund White, the price be-
ing $24, 500. The new building
will be located 500 feet east Of
the present building. It will be
| 75x76 feet, two stories with high
basement. Pressed brick any
crushed stone will be used. We
understand Mr.. White already
has a large gang Of men at
work on the ground and the
building will no doubt be COM
pleted ina very short time. It
is a nice drawing card for Bot

A ReUerie

Thou'rt gone. Thy footsteps no longer hear,
Thy cheer-bringing voice no more greets ear,
No longer the blood doth color my cheek,
AS it did perchance when your glances I'd meet,
No longer feeling of infinite rest
BY the power of thy presence fills my hrest.
Thou'rt gone, and with thee all pleasures have fled,
All hopes in this world forever dead
The sun in its course longer doth shine
AS it did when your eyes looked down into mine,
Nor the meadow howr.s bloom half fair
Nor birds sing sweet in the morning air.
Thou u'rt gone Thou has left but sorrow and pain.
My peace and my love we're given in vain.
Did ever you love me- it play
Just to pass the time, and a summer day?
Could you be so false, your eyes untrue, .s.
With the earth and the sky witness for you? I5e
Thou'rt gone! May success thy pathway attend,
May fortune to you all her favors lend,
May happiness, love and sweet peace be thine,
May your ne er know such sorrow nine
Igave my love freely you cast it aside
And left it's dregs to be hid by my pride

Notorious Horse Thief and .Jail
Breaker
SHOT BY THOS. KERR
Was a Bad CharacteT---Had Served
Time in both North and South Da-
kOta Penitemtiaries.

On last Saturday morning
the news was brought to this
city by Dougal Martin of the
killing of the notorious Alex
Lerron, near the ROlette cOun-
ty line in the Turtle Mountains.
He was shot about 10 o'clock
Friday evening by Thos. Kerr
in self defense.
Lerron had been staying
around the neigllborhood since
Monday or Tuesday and on
Friday he frightened a couple
of the women in the neighbor-
hood who sent their little boy
for Thos. Kerr, to protect them
as the man of the house was
absent at the time. Kerr
brought with him his thirt y
thirty calibre rifle to the house
of Olaf Peterson, and they, to-
gether with the II year old son,
Sammie Peterson, went down
to the pasture where the strange
man was. This was nearly ten
O clock Friday night and when
they got to the gate they met
Lerron on horse back and asked
hi1n where he was going. Ler-
ron, said he was going home
and by - if you can stop me-
and he reached for his revolver
but Kerr, realizing the danger
they all were in opened fire on
him, the first shot entering the
hip, the second struck hirra in
the side, and the last shot struck
him in the back of the neck the
bullet coming e out of the mouth.
It has been said that the horse
he was riding belonged toSteve
Westacott, near this city,, hav-
ing been stolen out of the pas
ture a couple of weeks ago, but
we are unable to confirm: this
report. Nevertheless the horse
remained beside it's rider until
it was taken away the. follow
ing morning.
The body was watched all
evening and word was sent both.
to Bottineau and Dumseith.
