home Immediately after returning
from Steele, and as she started to
come down stairs the blow came. The
lower part of her body was affected.
One of the items about former Kid

time leading factor in the history

west Little was heard of him un-
til Steeleites began to wander to the
sunny cline of California to spend
their surplus cash and dodge an ex-
pectant cold winter. 1t was then
found that Mr.. Thompson is leading
real estate man at Passlena, where
he has palatial home and is doing
a good business. He was glad to see
old timers from the Slope. Recent

JUST another CASE OF
Criminal CARLESSNESS

Grand Forks, N. D Dec. 29.-The
accidental discharge of a 22-calibre
rife with which the child was playing
cost the life of little Fordney Rush
feldt, the 4-yearold son Of Mr.. and
Mrs. E. NJ. Rushfeldt, 401 Cottonwood
street.
The bullet severed the juggler vein,
and the lad was dead in a few min
utes after the accident which occurred
shortly after o'clock. At the time
the little boy was playing at the head
of the stairs on the second story and
had taken the rifle from a corner of
the hall, where it was standing. 1t
happened that neighbor, who had
borrowed the gun, had just returned
it, and had carelessly left a cart
ridge in the chamber. In some un-
known way the little fellow discharg-
ed the gun with the muzzle in his
mouth, the bullet severing the Jug
gler vein.
The first intimation his mother,
who was busy in a room below, had
of the accident. was the sound of
choking. She did not hear the re-
port of the gun. She Immediately
ran upstairs and found her little son
lying on his back with blood flowing
in a stream from his mouth. The
frantic woman made her way to the

it is vastly more important that a
man with a family dependent upon
him should take care of his hair.
If you have dandruff, get rid Of
it by killing the germs.
If your hair is falling out, stop It.
If your hair is fading, don't delay.
There is one sure remedy that will

Gentlemen: I'm the Fall Of 1905, I
contracted a very severe cold which
settled on my lungs. At last began to
raise sputum and my physician then told
me I must go to California Immediately.
At this time I was advised to take Eek
mans Alternative. I stayed at home and
commenced taking it the last week in
October. I began to improve, and the
first week in January, 1906, resumed my
regular occupation, having gained 25
pounds, fully restored to health. It ia
now five years since my cure has been
effected and I cannot praise Eckman's
Alternative too highly. I have recom-
mended it with excellent results" -

north DAKOTA MAN TO
GETA carnegie MEATAL

| John Murdoch, a former reside
of North Dakota, son of Mrs. Rebecca
Murdoch OF Tappen, N. d., and a
brother of Mrs. w. A. Eddingfield of
Tappen, and of Mrs. B. B. Harker of
Dawson, N. D., is to receive a Car
negie medal for extreme bravery and
heroism. Mr.. Murdoch lives at Bat
tie Lake. Mimi, and the Battle Lake
Review has the following account of
his adventure:
While Leland Whiting and a cOus-
in Of the same name, were returning
from school by skating across Lake
Clitherall, Leland skated upon thin
ice, which had frozen over an air hole
and plunged into the lake. The cous-
in, who is mere lad, aged IL years,
was behind him and he says Leland
never came to the top of the water
after his plunge. He skated close to
the hole but was unable to see his
cousin, and then flinging off his coat
skated for John Murdocks house at
Old Clitherall, the nearest place for
help.
Murdoch hurried to the scene Of the
disaster and peering into the water
saw the boys body on the bottom
of the lake, and after removing his
coat and shoes plunged into the icy
water and brought the body of the
boy to the surface, and with no as
sistance other than the little cousin
got the body out on thick ice and
crawled out himself and worked over
the corpse for some time in vain
attempt to revive life. Failing, he
carried the boy to his home, a full
half mile, in stocking feet and also
drenched with the ice cold water
which encased him in a sheet of thin
ice In a warm room he made another
fruitless endeavor to revive the lad |
but the boy was dead.
Leland Whiting was IL years of !
age, the son OF Chas. Whiting, Jr. |
He was a br'cht lad, loved by all |
who knew him, and his death is a !
sad blow to his parents, relatives and |
friends.
The daring deed of John Murdoch
in plunging through small air hole,
scarcely three yords across into wa
ter that would chill many a man to
his death, with all his clothes on,
except coat and shoes, and diving
eighteen feet to the bottom and
the boy to the surface, put
Ting him on firm ice and getting out
alive, is little short of miraculous.
But John Murdoch thought he saw the
boy move, as he first observed him
On the bottom of the lake and with
\ life to save he did not hesitate to
estimate his own danger. Few men
would care to make such an effort
with so many chances against his
ever coming up at the air hole, or
fearing he might never be able to
ret up on firm ice again; then, too,
lew men could ever hope to reach
bottom at eighteen feet, handicapped

it was that night. That the boys
life was not saved, is no fault Of
brave John Murdoch of Clitherall,
for he risked his own to save the
child.
