MARMARTH

From the Mail, June 18.-Rail-
road development in this section
promises to exceed our fondest
hopes. A gang Of surveyors are
out on the Rapid City-Marmarth
extension with Instructions to con-
meet with the main line be-
tween Ives and Buffalo Springs.
This extension has been pros
pective for some time past but
now is an assured fact. A gang of
thirteen surveyors are working
on the Milwaukee branch from
Marmarth to Mott and the size Of
the gang induces us to think that
they must get through with the
survey in double quick time. A
report is current to the effect that
the N. P. intends to beat the
Milwaukee in the extension Of its
line from Mott here and in appar-
ant substantation of this the N. P.
has already a preliminary grade
stake just across the river here
and a short distance south Of the
Milwaukee track. There will be
a large amount of railroad build
ing in this section within a year
and Marmarth appears to be a
particularly promising opening
for additional terminal use.
Two of the finest cars on the en-
tire Milwaukee system passed
through here this week containing
officers Of the road on their way
to seattle. Among them were:
Pres. Earling, Gen. Supt. Bush,
Roewell Miller, chairman Of the
board Of directors, Mr.. Lakin. a
director and VIM. Rockefeller. Mr..
Rockefeller had brother with
him other than John. 1t might

Anumber of our local capitalists
have been contemplating the erec-
tion of another elevator in Wibaux
for several months past and as a
result, we may expect to see a
structure of this kind loom up
within the next six weeks. The
writer is the receiptant Of infor-
nation, to the effect that articles
of incorporation have already been
filed at Helena for the organiza-
tion Of what is to be known as the
Montana Grain Company, with a
paid in capital Of $4,000 and that
at the least expectation Of the
Company it will be prepared to
handle the earliest grain for mark

Just as we go to press a message

Franks death which occurred at

her illness was due principally to
infamatory rheumatism, we ur-
derstand that a complication Of
other diseases set in, which was
the direct cause of her untimely
demise. She was in her eighth year.

CHOOSING LIFE'S WORK
Secretary Goodrich of Boys Depart
nent of Y. M. C. A. Talks to
Hiuh School.

Harry Goodrich, the boys secretary
Of the Y. M. c. A., spoke to the pupils
of the high sehol yesterday on \. M.
C. A Work as Life Occupation.
He told of the time that would come
when each man in securing his life's
work will have to compete with three
others for the same position. He
said the easiest thing to do was to
read the signs of the times and pre-
pare to meet the occasion.
In choosing life work he said to
choose an occupation that you wore
sure you could keep UP the rest Of
your life and then stick to it. A sec
retaryship in a Y. M, G. A. is a life
work. The reward is not very much;
the social position is not very high, but
they are always respected and are
very useful. The greatest field lies
in boys work He is worth while
and there is always plenty to do.
There is a demand in association work
for a few men of the right kind in this
work. First they must be christians;
they must also be diplomatic and a
prophet of work that will turn up in
the future. The preparation for this
work is no greater than that of other
professions, and Mr. Goodrich said
that the rising prominence of as
sociations will in time demand a far
greater consideration from the public
than the Y. M. G. A. does at present.

Big TOURNAMENT
COMES TO CLOSE
WHIST ENTHUSIASTS FROM FOUR
TOWNS OF THE RED RIVER
VALLEY LEAVE FOR HOMES -
FARGO WINNER OF THE BEAU
TIFUL SILVER CUP. ...#

The big two-days' tournament of
the Red River Valley Whist associa-
tion closed late yesterday afternoon
and Fargo is now possessor of the
beautiful silver loving cup which was
the main prize played for. The three
visiting teams left the city much
pleased with their treatment while in
the city and were delighted with the
way the tournament was handled and
expressed the thought that the contest
was one of the best which has ever
heen held by the association.
May Challenge Fargo.
While Fargo was the victor in the
tournament it is doubtful If they
would have been winners of the low
ing cup had not revoke been made by
one Of the players of the ,Mayville
team. Whist players say that this
team is all but invincible and the re-
woke made was most unfortunate fot
the Mayville team. causing them to
lose the points necessary to win. Far
go, however, has a fine winning team
and it is reported that, while Nav
vile is fully satisfied with the result
of the tournament, they will chal-
lenge the Fargo team for a contest
probably within the next month.
The laws Of the association provides
that any team may challenge the hold
er Of the cup during the interim be-
tween the annual tournaments and this
is now being seriously considered by
the Mayville team. This team took
the trophy away from Fergus Falls
several wears a co In fhic y,oopna~ - :. =
has held the cup ever since.
The contest which just closed will
undoubtedly be the means of reviving
the interest in duplicate whist, which
for some time has been allowed to
lag owing to popularity of bridge whist
and whist players all over the city are
again looking with favor upon the du-
plicate variety.
