by Major Winslow the Hawaiian Dredg-
ing Company was found to have offer
ed to handle the work for SO 10 cents
per yard as against 60 cents per ward
in the tender made by a second con-
Germ in which J. f. Morgan and a num-
Der of local men are interested. The
plan of the Dillingham; Company is to
take the dredger Pearl in through the
Channel opposite the Brown residence
at Waikiki and to have her force mate
rial from the soft coral bottom opposite
the Along fort site to the ponds. While
the dredger is there the opportunity
is given for the private property in the
same vicinity to be reclaimed at a
fraction of what the cost would be
ordinarily.
The Dillingham; concern is stretch
ing out on all sides with its work and
will have its hands full for some time
to come. The work in Strengthening
the entrance to the channel at Pearl
Harbor, has been hardly more than
commenced, though hundreds of thou

ready been removed. In addition I'd

The acceptance of the bid of the Ha-

which title has been acquired by the
Federal War Department may mean
extensive improvements in that SETON.
1t is understood that a number of the

the opportunity of retaining land,
which can be done in connection with

COST HIN JUST SIS

1t cost J. S. Brown, an engi-
neer for a local construction COM
pany, SIS in the police station
last night, to learn that he was
not held up and robbed. Brown,
somewhat under the influence OF
liquor, telephoned from No. 2
engine house, South Twenty-sev-
enth street and Tacoma avenue,
that he had been held up by four
young men. who took all his valu-
ables. A half dozen detectives
secured the vicinity, but all they
discovered was that Brown had
frightened several little girls.
They took him to the police sta
tion, where he quickly sobered up
and admitted that the reported
holdup was imaginary. He was
allowed to go on depositing SIS
cash bail.

ideas on pilfering. He thinks 1t is
easier to steal third than second,
particularly with a left-hander

Horrible Wreck
Narrowly Averted

The recent order, making Beach
a regular stop for passenger train
No. S, was the only thing which
prevented this station being the
scene Of one of the most horrible,
death-dealing wrecks in the his
tory Of the Northern Pacific or any
other road in the land. Prior to
this order No. S. in common with
the other through trains, passed
through this city with speed great
ly accelerated. and anything OBJ
structing the rails would have been
instantly knocked to smithereens,
and, probably, the train with it.
Saturday morning, at $3.50, as
No. S slowed down for the stop.
its engine "sideswiped" the en-.
CINE Of the local freight which
stood on the passing track, the
engine of the latter not being in
the clear. The force Of the impact
was sufficient to lift the passenger
engine up off the rails two feet.
but it dropped on the track again.
The engineer Of No. s was thrown
to the deck and badly bruised.
several passengers were somewhat
shaken up, and both engines were
reduced to scrap.
Had No. S been a through train
there is no telling what the loss Of
life would have been. The coal
dock would have been wrecked and
added it's timber and coal to the
holocaust which would surely have
followed.

The above is a speaking likeness
Of Mayor Kellogg, than whom no
one has been more prominently
identified with the growth and
development of Beach.
Mr.. Kellogg has been a pioneer
for % years-a professional, as
it were-moving westward with
the frontier. When the western
ends Of the rails of Henry VIII
Iard's Northern Pacific project
were at Bismarck, Mr.. Kellogg
was there-an active business man.
AS the rails were extended west
ward, he kept pace. until he
found himself at Glendive, Mont.
Thirteen years ago he decided
to locate in this county and went
into the cattle business southeast
Of Sentinel Butte, but he soon be-
came convinced that the future of
this section lay with the farmers,
rather than the ranchers, and,
accordingly, took up a homestead
adjoining the townsite of Sentinel
Butte, proving up and living there
nine years. Four years ago he
saw chance to do something in
the neighborhood of the Beach
section house and invested all his
capital in town lots and build
ings, the rapid development of
the place confirming his judg-
ment. He is now retired from
active business, his five business
and residence properties occupying
most of his time and yielding him
a handsome revenue. He erected
the first substantial business block
in the town-the cement block
building on First avenue-which
stopped the big fire Of Sept. is,
'09, and saved the town from de-
struction. Mr.. Kellogg, when the
village of Beach was organized,
Golden Valley chronicle. (Beach, Billings County, N.D.) 1905-1916, 1909-12-24

was selected as one of the trustees,
and was reelected, but for business
reasons declined to again serve.
This fall, when Beach, decided to
assume the dignity of a city, our
people naturally turned to Mr..
Kellogg as the most available
mayoralty timber, as his inter-
ests and the city's interests are
identical, and he was unanimously
elected mayer on November 26.
His years set lightly on his
shoulders and he is as full of vim
and vigor as most men twenty
years his junior-ever on the alert
to promote the interests of the
city of Beach.
