ACTIVITIES
IN COUNTRY SOUTH

Northwestern South Dakota and South
western North Dakota comprise a terri
tory that is perhaps at this time receiv-
ing more attention al the hands of the
railway companies than any other tract
of equal area in the great Northwest.
Three years ago but two railway lines
entered this section, the Northern
Pacific and the Northwestern. From
Dickinson on the former road to Belle
Fouche. South Dakota, on the latter, an
expanse of territory we two hundred
miles in width was untapped.
All this has now been changed. All
is now activity where formerly all was
quiet as concerned railroad building.
The building of the Pacific Coast Ex-
tension marked the beginning of ar era
of unparalleled railway activity. New
lines are now projected that when COM
pleted will form a net work over the
country so long neglected.
In the work of railway extension in
this section the Milwaukee is foremost.
They have already begun work on q
branch south and west from Wakpala.
This line crosses northern Armstrong
and Meade counties and extends across
southern Butte county in South Dakota.
The Milwaukee also is planning for q
branch north from the main line, pro-
baby from Mclaughlin on the reserva.
ton. 1t is stated on good authority that
this line will extend across Hettingea
county and that New England is to bt
one of the company's principal towns.
The Lennon Signal in speaking o.
developments on this line says:
IA large party of Milwaukee railroad
surveyors were in the city Tuesday ant
left on Wednesday morning for Mott
N. D.. where they will make thei
headquarters for the summer. They viii
work on the branch of the road that il
to run from Mclaughlin northwest t
Mott, New England and other points
From Mclaughlin the road will run near
ly north until it strikes the Cannon Bal
river, then it will turn to the northwest
1t seems to be the intention of the Mil
waukee road to nearly parallel the ne,
N. P. line which has already starte
building.

William Mckenzie Whetted Ban

ing Roll.

William Mckenzie. who claims to be
a veteran of the Spanish-American
Wan n an ex-member of the Wash

an interesting session with three
strangers on the Commercial street,
dock last night. Mckenzie has only
been in the city for a few days, and
last night he made a round of several
saloons in the vicinity of the dock, dis
playing a large roll of bills. After
leaving one of those resorts, he said,
he was followed by three men, and
when he arrived at the Commercial
street dock the strangers bounced upon
him, relieved him of his money. and
then threw him into the canal.
His cries for help were heard by
Roundsman Mcmahon and Patrolman
Gray, of the Third Precinct. After
much difficulty Mckenzie was finally
dawn up ON the bank Of the canal and
brought to the Third Precinct station.
There he was placed in a warm bed
and in a short time had recovered
sufficiently to relate his experience.
