A RAILROAD MERGER.
A Consolidation Plan to Enable the Two New
Lines to Build One Lona Line.

A plan to consolidate the two pro-
posed farmers railroads in the northeast
and southeast portions of Cavalier
county is being discussed. Manager
Campbell of the cement mines has been
promoting the building of a line from
Edinburg to Mclean, where the Port
land Cement company has its mines.
The Union Railway company, recently
organized has planned to build road
from Osnabrock to the international
boundary line. The new scheme is to
run branch from Edinburg toMcLean,
20 miles distant, and continue the line
north so as to take the place of the
branch proposed by the Union Railway
company. The Union company was
capitalized at 100000 part of which
about $4,000 of the stock has already
been subscribed. The Edinburg branch
promoters have subscribed $4,000 to
date for their new branch. When the
two companies have reached an agree
ment proposition will be submitted to
President j. j. Hill of the Great North
ern railway in regard to the operation OF
the new lines.

CHILDREN ARE
FIRE VICTIMS
Terrible Triple Tragedy on Monda,
Afternoon in langdon.
WERE LOCKED IN THE HOUSE
The Mother Went on q Visit to Neiohbor, $
and Her Children We're Found Dead
When the Fire Department
Broke In.

The most narrowing occurrence that
Langdon has experienced in many years
was the death by sutfocotion and fire on
Monday afternoon of the three small
children of Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Hender-
son, the ages of the victims ranging from
four and one-half years to eighteen
months old. The home of the Hender-
sons is on Second street in what is
known as the Clark house. row owned
by Mrs. Jennie LeBar. and their home
and all their belongings suffered de-
struction.
The circumstances surrounding the
the accident make it more than ordi-
narlly sad At about half past two in
the afternoon Mrs. Henderson. who was
alone with the children. locked up the
house leaving the children at home. and
went for short visit with neighbor
residing block or two away. Less than
an hour afterwards smoke and fire en-
veloped the home and neighbors sent out
the alarm and went to the rescue. De-
lay followed in locating the part of the
house where the children had been left
and the fire department after stubborn
fight got the fire under control. The
rescue was made while the interior OF
the building was still ablaze and filled
with smoke. They were found on the
floor of the front room on the south side
of the house, dead but not disfgured by
burns suffocation. no doubt having les
sened their suferings Though not
known it is supposed that the children
got playing with matches after left alone
by the mother and as there is a gasoline
stove in the room where the fire was first
discovered. that may have had someth-
ing to do with the fires origin.
No words can give expression to the
grief of the parents and the sad event
will be long remembered and taken as a
warning IN Langdon homes. The family
came to Langdon less than a year ago
Mr.. Henderson having position as tin
ner with the hardware firm of Mercer
& LAWN during that time.
The funeral held Wednesday after.
