The principals in an interesting
reunion which took place at Artesian
were John Hayter, a resident OF North
Dakota, and t. e. Hayter, business
man of Artesian. They are brothers
and the reunion took place after a
separation Of forty-four years long
years. T. K. Hayter, with other
Artesian men was at railroad depot
when passenger train came in. Among
the first to alight was an elderly man
who glanced keenly about him. His
eye lighted on Hayter. whom he
approached and engaged in conversa-
ton. Both men wore the little @. A.
r. button in the lapels Of their coats,
and it was natural that the conservation
should drift back to the old days Of the
rebellion. During the talk the fact
was revealed that both had belonged to
the same regiment and company during
the civil war. The Artesian brother at
this juncture remarked that he had a
brother who was member of the same
company To this the stranger replied
that it was wonder his Artesian
brother had not recognized him, the
visiting brother, it developing, having
recognized his brother before he engaged
in conversation with him, notwith-
standing that nearly half century had
elapsed since last he had seen him.
The total assessed valuation of all
property in the state for this year, as
shown by the forthcoming report of the
state auditor, will be 1920, 087 1853 over
the assessment of last year. OF this
increase. about $2,50O,o00 has been
placed against corporate property and
the balance against real estate and per-
sonal property. The corporate property
valuation this year is over $32, 000, 900
and that of farm lands alone is $3.50, 1882
OFT. While the state shows up we'll in
the way of farm property, the assessors
could find but $50 900 worth of watches
diamonds and jewelry, or about dol
lar in that line for each resident of the
state, and while the banks show indi-
vidual deposits of nearly $50, 1000, 600,
the assessable amount of money is less
than 81 ,000,000 The banks are assessed
at O., 1863, 6l7, while there is but about
four thousand dollars of the capital
stock of in.rrance companies held In
the state, if the figures of the assessor
are to be considered as correct. The
horses of the state are valued at about
fifteen million dollars, while the cattle
came IN at little less, about twelve
million dollars, with sheep at a little
less than million, and swine at just
little over that figure.

A bad wreck occurred Saturday
morning in the Bristol yards in which
a caboose and fiat Car were completely
destroyed and six cars and two engines
thrown from the track The east bound
freight, No. rs. was switching in the
yards, aud the crew left the train
standing on the main track while they
were picking mp the cars around the
yard, and double-header stock train
from the west came around the curve
just west of town and crashed into the
rear end Of the freight blowing through
the caboose and fiatcar before the
train was stopped. The engineer and
fireman saw their danger in time to
jump from the head engine, and
escaped with few scratches. There
was nobody In the oaboose At the time
and no one was injured.
