Word from the Battlefield.

Word from the Battlefield.
In Camp on the Battlefield, Sept. "a, 'O9.
= Editor Times: You may like a few
words from the battlefield. The work
here is progressing finely. I have two
good men at work, all that I need at
present, yet fear the monument, will
be here before we are ready for it.
We had board meeting last Friday.
There were some things that were not
as pleasant as wish they had been.
We find we must cut out some of the
former plans to make our money pay
the bills. In regard to the part of the
article that was lost that I sent YOU
two weeks ago, will rewrite it from
memory.
To:senator Pierce . of Ransom Il d, 9 county q, ,lt
for writing the bill and~to Senator
Thatcher forsintroducing it that created
the White Stone battle commission
we are greatly indebted, and to Hon.
Thomas F. Marshall for fighting
through three.sessions Of congress. He
gave US the section Of land that has given
all Of our financial aid to do the work
Of putting up the monument and other
wise identifying the grounds and now
after waiting for this great object for
over fifteen years and now in my 77th
year l, shall return to- my family ia

the latch string will always be 8 out to

SHOT AT OBJECT
OBJECT WAS MAN
John Seeman Fires Contents of
Shotgun Into Body of
Florein Walloch.
Saw Moving Object in Darkness
Thought He Was Shooting
at a Skunk.

Florein Walloch, who lives between
Crete and Stirum, was the victim of a
queer accident Sunday night. In the
darkness John Seeman took him for an
animal of the prairie and let go at him
with shot gun, and Walloch received
about the Who'll, contents.
Drs. Meadows and Ryder were called
to the scene some time after the shoot
ing and their account of the affair is
something like this: Walloch had been
to beer party at neighbor's on
Sunday and when it was tine to go
home found he he'd little more than
was necessary. Some of the boys ac-
companied him part way home and
thought he would be able to make the
rest Of the way alone. 1t seems he
laid down by the highway and the See
man boy being on his way back from
duck hunting, saw the object by the
wayside. He looked at it awhile, saw
it move, lifted his gun and fired. The
shot took effect in the head and shoulder
and scattered to the arm and legs.
AS soon as the boy had found out the
object of his aim, he made for the
residence near by and the physicians
were called. The unfortunate man
was brought to Oakes and placed in the
Samaritan Hospital. Nearly all the
shot was extracted, but some are yet
embedded in the skull. Seven shot hit
the head. The man at this writing is
resting easy.
Thomas Walloch, brother of the in
jured man and Fred Anders went to
Forman Tuesday to see the authorities
relative to the matter and yesterday
Sheriff Mason went out and took young
Seeman to Forman. He will haye his
preliminary hearing today. The young
man was accompanied to Forman by
his father, Fred Seeman, and Fred
Anders.
It is not thought the authorities will
hold case against Seeman, as the
action was without malice and it was
the least of the boys calculations that
he was shooting at human being.

NORTH DAKOTA
COAL BRIQUETTED
Will Be the Solution of Fuels
Problem in a Few
Years.
A Vast Resource and Prime
Factor in Manu-
featuring.

thousands of square miles in North
Dakota, as we'll as South Dakota and
Montana, are underlaid with immense
deposits of Ignite coal, more coal than
Pennsylvania ever had. But in its nat
ural state this coal is far from an ideal
fuel as it slacks and crumbles when ex-
posed to the air and when burning, it
riddles through the crate and is wasted.
People who think they are carrying out
ashes are really carrying out unburned
coal. Experiments have proven beyond
question that this Ignite coal can be
compressed into briquets that make a
fuel better than soft coal and almost
equal to the finest grades of hard coal.
The want of rapid and inexpensive
process of converting this coal into
compact Jumps or briquets that would
stand up during the process of combus-
tion has stood in the way of the enter
prise.
A machine that is remarkably simple
and said to work perfectly has been in
vented and patented and Minneapolis
Company has been organized for their
manufacture. This machine makes a
very neat and compact briquet at about
the rate of one hundred tons in ten
hours. The Ignite is crushed to uni
form finess and anyone of several cheap
binders mixed in, such as lime, starch
or pitch, and forced through tubes
while heated to high temperature by
super-heated steam, forming hard cy-
lindrical blocks that are convenient to
ship and burn up perfectly, leaving
only per cent ashes, and giving off
more heat than eastern soft coal and
costing much less.
Ignite briquets are very near smoke
less and produce no. SCOT. Ignite is
naturally great heat producer. con.
tanning not SO much carbon but high
percentage Of gases. The briquetting
process economises in many ways using
the fine coal that would otherwise never
leave the mine, saves waste in shipping,
increases the heat producing quality
twelve to twenty per cent and makes
fuel cheaper than common soft coal.
The enormous advantage Of having
d unlimited supply of cheap, conven-
lent and highly efficient fuel produced
within our own borders cannot be esti-
mated.
ct Besides its use for stores and heating
plants there is the enormous item Of
power. Good, cheap and abundant fuel
means the development Of many re-
sources to which scarce a thought has
been given as yet. There are great de-
posits within the state Of brick and ce-
ment clays that promise the only escape
from high priced building material.
There are fine pottery clays which have
been sent to Europe for experiment and
converted into the finest of china. We
grow every year an enormous amount
Of flax fibre, better in quality that that
produced in Russia where most of our
linen comes from. We grow fibres of
many kinds adaptable to the manufact-
ure Of paper.
The great essential in all these pro-
cesses is fuel. North Dakota has a vast
amount of wealth besides that are pro-
duced from her fertile soil and brains
and capital will develope it.

operating in the Elk City district in
northern Idaho, announces that a
dredge of 5000 cubic yards capacity
will be Installed on the placer
ground. where C. ]. Jennings, presi-
dent of the company, has expended
$4,000 i'll prospecting the property
The new machine will cut 50 feet un-
der water, thus having 40 per cent
greater working strength than under
ordinary circumstances. The dredSe
will be 100 feet in length. 80 feet
wide and six feet deep. The line
will consist OF "a four. foot manganese
steel tip buckets, which will give a
nominal digging capacity OF from 15O
to $50 cubic yards an hour. The
dredge will be operated and lighted
by electric power The approximate
weight of all machinery is estimated
at 2e2 900 pounds Between 80 and
100 days will be required to have the
dredge IN operation after the tim
