ANOTHER STEAM SHOVEL
ON SHELBY LINE

The best indication of what may be ex-
pected in the way of traffic when the new
Billings & Northern road is ready for
business lies in the work that is being
done upon the line from Shelby to Great
Falls. A steam shovel has been operating
near Conrad for several weeks getting
out gravel for ballasting the line in that
vicinity, and on Wednesday of this week
a steam shovel was installed at Gildford,
30 miles west of Havre, and work trains
will carry gravel from there to Shelby,
from which point it will be scattered
along the line for 60 miles south OF that
place.
This would indicate that large
amount OF traffic is anticipated, and a
further indication that such will be the
case is the excellent and substantial man.
ner in which the new line between
Laurel and Great Falls has been built.
Whitefsh is situated just right to be a
division point for this new business, and
will therefore be greatly benefited by the
increase in working force which will be
necessary. At any rate, people here are
under this impression, and the outlook
is that they will not be disappointed.

CARD OF THANKS.

To the friends who came to us in our
hour of trouble, and contributed all that
human kindness could suggest, to help
and comfort, we return most heartfelt
thanks, and although such devoted
friendship cannot remove the sad mem
cries that linger around our vacant chair,
it brings into view the brightest side OF
humanity, and throws the pure light OF
an unseltish friendship into darkened

E. W. GRANT DIES FROM
BURNS

f. w. Grant, who was so terribly
burned by an explosion of kerosene on
Tuesday of last week, died at the White
fish hospital Saturday evening. After suf-
fering for four days death came to his re-
lief, and he passed to the great beyond,
leaving host of sorrowing relatives and
friends to mourn his untimely departure.
Deceased was % years of age at the
time of his death. Through his death
young wife and an infant child are de-
prived of kind and loving husband and
father, but his cheerful, helpful life, his
devotion to his wife and family and kind
ness to everybody, will long linger as
fragrant memory in the home which his
presence frightened and which death has
now darkened. His life was gentle, but
like the still waters it was deep. In his
heart of hearts he carried those he loved,
and his hand was never weary, his step
never failed in caring for and ministerng
to those who were in any way dependent
upon him.
Besides devoted wife and infant child,
large circle of near relatives are among
those who will be deprived of the joy of
his presence. We can only remind these
mourners that he is not dead, he is only
asleep-resting after well spent life here.
He cannot, and would not if he could.

ness of night comes the sunshine and joy
OF the day.
The funeral services were held in the
Catholic church Monday morning at $3.50,
when requiem high mass was said, and
