CONDUCTOR MADE
HIS FINAL run
John Bolan's Life Run Ended
Last Night as the Clock
Pointed to 6:45.
Has Been III for Nearly a Year
from Paralysis Caused by
Injury to Spine.

John Bolan passed to his rest at 6:45
last evening. The end had been ex-
pected for several days.
Nearly year ago deceased was hurt
on the railroad. He was obliged to
quit work at Bismarck and with his
wife return to Oakes to be with her
mother, Mrs. O'Neill. He remained
here taking treatment for several
months, but not getting relief he was
taken to Rochester, Minn., November
18th, being accompanied there by his
wife, his mother-in-law and Claude
Coulter. His spine was injured, par
alysis had set in and his friends had
hoped that an operation at Rochester
would help him. But hopes were
blasted there again for the surgeons
could do nothing to effect permanent
cure. He remained at Rochester ten
weeks, returning here in January since
when he has been lying at the New
Haven. That dreaded disease, con-
sumption, set in towards the last and
assisted in the ravages Of death.
John E. Bolan was twenty-six years
of age the ninth of last February. He
was son of Mr.. and Mrs. M. ]. Bolan
of Roscoe, S. D.. and was born at
Farm City, Ill. His mother has been
at his bedside the past two weeks and
his father arrived this morning to
attend the funeral. Five years ago he
came from Roscoe to Oakes to accept a
position as brakeman on the 500. He
had a years experience on the Mil
waukee line west of Aberdeen before
coming here. From brakeman and
fireman he became conductor, having a
freight run on. the Missouri River
Division of the 500. For some time
prior to his illness he had the run be-
tween Bismarck and Drake. He was a
member of the Odd Fellows lodge at
Wishek and of the Order of Railroad
Conductors and Order of Railroad
Trainmen., These orders contributed
much to the. relief of their brother dur
| ing his illness.
On October Is, 1906, Mr.. Bolan was
united in marriage to Miss Tillie o 'Neill,
i an estimable young lady of this city.
The remains will be laid in the Oakes
cemetery, funeral services being con-
Quoted by Rev. r. T. Fulton at the
Presbyterian church at two o'clock
tomorrow (Friday) afternoon.

Kuhn messenger.
The city was again enshrouded with
deep sorrow yesterday, when it was
learned by telegram from Minneapolis
that Mrs. A. B. Malin had answered
the summons of death. As our readers
are aware, Mrs. Malin's health has been
very poor since about the first of the
year, and about two weeks ago she
was taken to hospital in Minneapolis,
where she submitted to a very delicate
operation about ten days ago. For
severaldays following the operation she
was very low; and the end was ex-.
pected at any moment. All the men,
bers of the family were summoned to
her bedside, their hopes were greatly
frightened last Friday, when she
seemed to be improving nicely. Sum
day evening every indication was in
her favor, and it was thought that the
critical period was over. Mr.. Malin
and daughter Daisy and son Cleve re-
turned home, while Bert remained

Estate MoTTo:-'1 am but one, but am one l cannot
do everything but can do something. What can do,
ought to do; and what ought to do, by the grace
of God will do.
Exponent of the motto of her state
She was but one, but one who lived to do,
Who dared to stand for those things truly great,
And daring worked with loyal heart and true.
In home the loved companion, tender wife,
In church the soul mbued with Christ-lke zeal,
In temperance work, consecrated life,
A leader in this cause for human veal:
All this was she, and yet no modest flower
Hid in its crannied niche with humber mien
Than this brave woman with her gentle power,
Doing, and giving her all, unheard, unseen.
Across Dakotas northern plains there swept
A mighty horde to fight the red capped foe
BY day they fought, by night their vigis kept
Till step by step they laid the demon low.
Amidst this Ribboned Army in the van
We see her in the glorious charge for Right:
And never since the world its wars began
Did victory crown fairer, truer fight.
March on, brave Army, ever on, nor rest,
Nor let the trusty sword rust in thy grth,
Till North Dakota's wind-swept pulsing breast
Shall bear the pledge of Prohibitions birth.
And on the grave Of those who've fought and died
Let justice lay flower, the white Immortele,
And trace upon the markers marble side:
'These soldiers wear crown beyond deaths portal.
One of these soldiers, strong and tried, was she,
Each roll-call of the faithful found her there;
She fought that statehood's honor might be free
From aught of stain upon its record fair.
Her hands were filled with deeds Of service rendered.
Each day, each hour to all who need but ask;
So ready were they with the service rendered
Behold the work is done! It was no task.
Dear heart, 30 filed with tender love and care,
It spent itself in ministering unto others;
The secret Of her helpful ife-the prayer,
She asked not for herselfs sake but for another's
Within her souls depths burned the light divine,
And spread it's hallowng influence and far;
Beyond the grave loves eyes still see it shine,
It points the way like an immortal star.
Bright star be thou our beacon light, our guide,
Direct our steps to that eternal gate
Which stands ajar beyond the Great Divide
Whore angels such a. he for us await
