WALKING INTO HEALTH.
Walking and Running Becoming More

1t means much for: the health and
happiness of Americans that walking
and running are becoming more pop

run for medals and the plaudits of the
crowd. The former get health and
strength from the pastime, while the
latter quite often do themselves perm

ical powers.
The recent Pedestrian feats Of Wes-
ton and Longboat, not forgetting the
wonderful performance of Henri St..
Yves. who won the recent Marathon
race at New York City, defeating five
of the greatest Marathon runners of
the world, excited great popular en-
thusiasm and was witnessed by tre>
mendous crowds.
Five hundred thousand persons saw
young Edwin White win the Brooklyn
Marathon race at Seagate on Wash

miles, 1856 yards in 2 hours, So min

runners took part in the contest, q
number Of them falling out before
they had run very far. How did he
do it? you will ask. OF course II

Dickinson, N. D., April 24.-Col Al
fred White has accepted the position
of travelling engineer for the Ameri-
can Locomotive Works with head
quarters at Montreal. The position
came to Mr.. White unsolicited and is
merited recognition of his ability
as an engineer.
Like Aladdin's palace, Dickinson's
tallest sky-scraper, the -four mill of
the Missouri Valley Milling Co., has
grown almost in night and it's six
stories of towering height have risen
into the air by leaps and bounds. 1t

ago that the men were still working
on the massive foundations and now
the outside work is practically done.
Forty of fifty members met in Ma

erecting q temple. Chairman V. n.
Stickney presided. He announced that
S19,5O0 had been subscribed toward
the proposed building and that there
