SURVEYORS At MED0RA
LOOKING FOR EASY GRADE

A recent dispatch in the Bismarck
Tribune says:
The Northern Pacific railway has had
a crew of engineers at work in the Bad
Lands near Medora for some time and it
is believed that the road is contemplat-
ing some extensive work near there.
1t is trying to secure better grade
through this depression, something which
may quite easily be secured, it is be-
lieved. There are those who believe the
company is looking for a much more
important matter in the eventual eIec-
trification of the road.
The Little Missouri is tempestuous
stream that annually pours an immense
volume Of wafer through its channel into
the river. The Bad Lands are devoid of
heavy vegetation and the flood waters at
times of immense volume and always of
sufficient quantity to be an important
factor if they could be storedssand con-
served.
The conservation of this natural re-
source. where the road yet retains large
body of its original land grant, may be
utilized for the construction of dam
and impounding the waters of the Little
Missouri. Were this done it is believed
ample power could be secured for the
complete electri1ication of large section
of the road. Much of the land there is
underlaid with coal and the railway
company has doubly valuable asset.

scHMlIz IS Arrested
CHECK FORGING AGAIN

On Monday Sheri # j. A. Wiech ar
rested Matt Schmitz and lodged him in
jail for passing one Of his worthless
checks on South Side restaurant man
and obtaining the value of 81. so.
It is said that there are dozen or so
of small checks which Schmitz has scat
tered a round in this way. A year or
more ago he was arrested for a similar
offense, but the case was finally dropped
and he was permitted to leave the Jail.
1t really looks as though Schmitz wanted
to get into the penitentiary and he is
very likely to make it.
A few years ago Schmitz was U. S.
land Office employe in tho local office.
Later he aspired to the position of
court stenographer, but this appeared to
be too much like work and he soon deve-
loped into full aedsed tin-horn
gambler.

JUDGE F0Ls0M's Big
CHECK FOR ONE CENT

The story of revenue collector in
Missouri receiving check for one cent
due him from the government which ap-
peared recently in an eastern paper calls
to mind the story of Justice A. P. Fol-
som and his government voucher for one
cent, which is we'll known to all the old
timers in this vicinity.
Judge Folsom was postmaster at New
England from 1890 until some time in
1892. When the Judge moved to this
city, in checking up his account with
the u. S.. he found that there was due
him the sum of one cent and sent in
his statement accordingly. In due time
a voucher arrived for the amount; and
this voucher, which by tho way, is quite
a large and impressive looking document.
is carefully preserved as souvenir by
judge Folsom's daughter, Mrs. c. r.
Pendergast.

alex POISON MEETS
DEATH At SPOKANE

Word was received here the first of
the week of serious accident in
Spokane whereby Alex Poison, formerly
resident of this city, was so badly
injured that his death resulted.
Mr.. Poison was working on a rock
crusher, when the jim-pole broke and
struck him in falling, crushing him
terribly and injuring him internally.
He was taken to hospital where he
died Sunday. December S, at about
seven in the morning. the day following
that of the accident.
A telegram announcing Mr.. Polson's
death was received by j. r. Stewart of
this city. boyhood friend of the de-
ceased in their old home in Nova Scotia.
As he was member of the Odd Fell
lows, Rebekah and Encampment lodges
here, it was decided to have the remains
shipped here for interment.
Telegrams have been sent to Mr. Pol
sons aged father. who is still living in
Nova Scotia. and to his sister in Boston
but it is not considered likely that any
of his family can be present at the
funeral.
The remains arrived from the west
Wednesday evening and were taken to
the Odd Fellows hall. from which place
the funeral will be held Sunday after
noon at 2 80 O'Clock, under the auspices
of the Odd Fellows. Rebekah and Encamp-
ment lodges. Rev. W. J. Brown will
preach the funeral sermon and interment
will be made in the Dickinson cemetery.
Alex Poison was born in Nova Scotia
and was between thirty-eight and
thirty-nine years Of age. His boyhood
days were spent on his fathers farm
and later he went 10 Boston. where he
was engaRed in carpenter work for
number of years.
Upon coming to Dickinson he was
employed for some time with the
bridge crew on this division of the
Northern Pacific. and later worked as
contractor ana carpenter in the city.
He went to the Klondyke in the rush
of '98. and returning later made this
city his home until his removal to the
west several years ago. He was man
who made friends wherever he went, and
there are many in. this city who will
sincerely mourn his untimely death.
Mr.. Polson's father, Hugh Poison. and
his step-mother still live on the farm in
Nova Scotia. He has one sister, Bella
Poison, whose home is in Boston. and
half.sister. Mrs. Walker, are his nearest
living relatives.
