YOUNG BOY CHEATS DEATH.

Valley City, N. d., Nov 1S.-Fight-
ing every inch of the way to save
himself from drowning in the icy wa
ters Of the Sheyenne river, George
Preston, farmer boy, cheated death
by grasping the edge of an air hole
and hanging on until his companions
could get an axe and chop away
enough ice for him to be taken out
The boy was skating when he broke
through and was Wnirled beneath the
water His companions could see him
through the ice and followed his
fight, but were unable to assist him.
For fully block the boy drifted un-
der the ice while the boys above
watched him with horror. Some Of
them ran for help, but before any men
could arrive young Preston in thrash
ing about with his hands put his fin
gers through an air hole not more
than six inches across. He had the
presence of mind to keep his hold and
draw his face to the opening, where
he could breathe. One of the boys
secured a small hand axe with which
the hole was made large enough for
the boy to be taken out

OUTPUT OF WASHBURN CO.
ESTIMATED AT 10000 YEAR.
THE CURRENT YEAR.

Wilton, N. D., Nov. 19.-WiIton,
with population OF less than thou
sand is the seat Of the largest Ignite
coal industry in North Dakota and
perhaps in the United States.
1t is less than a dozen years ago
that the Wilton mines were opened
by Gen. H. D. Washburn of Mime
apolis, who purchased about $4,000
acres in this vicinity and began de-
veloping the vast fields of Ignite
found within the bounds Of his pur-
chase. The output was naturally small
at first, but year by year the industry
has developed until at present the
company is mining 1900 tons q day.
A visit to the mines will astonish
those not familiar with conditions.
The company has under it's control
Two mines, but at present, but one is
being operated. It is shaft sixty
feet below the surface, where vein
Of Ignite coal ranges in thickenss
from ten to sixteen feet" The mine
is lighted by electricity and the coal
is brought to the foot of the shaft by
means of motor cars.
Each miner Is supplied with cars
which hold about one and a half tons
Of coal, and as he fills them they are
drawn to the main entry by mules and
thence by motor to the face of the
shaft. The cars are then brought to
the surface and weighed. As each
miner Is paid on a tonnage basis, tags
are supplied them by the company,
and when q car is loaded, tag 1s at
tacned to it with the number OF the
miner upon It.
After the coal. is weighed it is run
thru a screen in order to eliminate
the slack and small coal. To assure
good weight, a representative OF the
Western Weighing association has
charge of the weighing after the coal
Is put In cars.
The 500 railroad Is the only line
transporting coal from the mine, but
the Northern Pacific has finished
grading branch line, with Wilton as
it's western terminal, and 1t Is only
question of a few months when the
steel will be laid.
In order to fill the orders the CON-
pany runs a day and night force, pro-
ducing from 1900 to 1,5OO tons daily
The total number CT men employed in
the rush season reaches 300, with d
payroll of $4,000 monthly. The main
Office Of the Washburn Ignite Coal
Co. is in Minneapolis, but agencies are
maintained in all the larger towns and
cities in North Dakota. 1t is conf
IDENTIFY expected the output for this
year will reach 100000 TONS
Recently the company established
a yard in this city, near the 500 de-
pot, with Mr.. Enright as manager.
About three cars day are handled at
this point at the present time.

Gaunt and thin and apparently half
starved, Scotch collie dog that left
for Iowa with the family Of J. w.
Schmickle, returned to his former
home near Cogswell about two weeks
ago, after an absence of nearly two
months. The dog had been raised on
the farm and had scarcely been of
the place when the family moved to
Iowa after selling their farm chattels
this fall, taking the dog with them.
Whether the dog went to Iowa with
the family, or whether he was lost on
the way is not known, but It Is clear
ly apparent he has been on . long
hunt for his old home, and has suf-

of alleged irregularities in Ebert county,
threw out nineteen votes, thus changing
a Tribble majority of four votes in Ebert
county to a majority of eight for Howard,
and giving the latter the convention vote
four-of that county.
The Gilbert county executive committee
disregarded the district committees &C
ton and named Tribble delegates to the
convention. Howard delegates were also
named by the district committee.

the vote and declare the nominee. Ir1b-
ble's friends took possession Of the con-
vention hall, and, amid the widest con-
fusion, nominated Tribble, who accepted
in brief speech Then Tribble's fol-
lowers left the hall and after call Of
the counties showed Howard to have a
majority OF four votes. He was formally
declared the democratic nominee. He too,
delivered a short speech of acceptance.
