BIG CIVIL ACTION
GIVEN DEATH BLOW
THE $4,000 SUIT OF CARRIE
KELLY or DEVILS LAKE VS..
THE GREAT NORTHERN HEAD.
Ed oFF-nIREcTEp VERDICT
ORDERED FOR DEFENDANT.

The big civil action for 5000 Of
Carrie Kelly, administrative, against
the Great Northern, came to q ternni-
nation in the federal court when Atty.
10. J. Murphy for the company moved
for dismissal after the PLAINTIFF has
rested, contending that no criminal
negligence mad been shown.
Kelly was killed at Devils Lake
while engaged as brakeman. Gravel
had been distributed along the track
for ballasting purposes. It was claim
ed that in boarding the train, of which
he had control, he stumbled on the
gravel and was thrown under the car
wheels.
The defense claimed that the gravel
was there in the usual and ordinary
process Of maintaining the road; that
Kelly knew 1t was there; that he had
control Of the train and IL there was
any danger he should have boarded
the cars before they started
Arguments In support OF the motion
for directed verdict were advanced
yesterday afternoon by Atty. G. j..
Murphy of Grand Forks who repre-
sents the defendant company. At
torney Skulason of Grand Forks, who
represented the plaintiff, opposed the
motion.
This morning when the jury con-
vened at the opening Of court, Judge
Charles F. Amidon reviewed the facts
in the case and gave the law appli-
cable at the same time directing the
jury, to return verdict in favor of
the defense.

COAL SUPPLY IN
FARGO LIMITED
CANVASS or SITUATION IN THIS
CITY SHOWS THAT TiE.uP OF
TRAFFIC MIGHT WORK HAVOC
IMPOSSIBLE TO HAVE 1T
SHIPPED.

While there is sufficient coal in
Fargo for the immediate demand, a
close canvass Of the situation. shows
that alblizzard sufficient to tie up traf-
flc couple OF days, with attendant
cold weather, would work havoc in
this section. Some of the coal deal
ers are entirely out, Others have
enough to supply their trade for a
couple of days, while there are others
who are still more fortunate.
Yesterday couple Of cars were re-
ceived by one firm but in the s'time
of need 1t lasted quick for inside of
an hour several dealers had their rigs
there to secure some.
The main trouble appears to be in
getting the coal started from the head
OF the lakes. Where four or five cars
are ordered, one is usually started out.
After 1t Is received here, 1t is next to
impossible TO have the cars spotted
Practically all that is received is nm
loaded directly from the cars into the
delivery rigs. Many OF the local deal
ers are far from satisfied with the
present condition.

committee with power to act. At the
present time there are only two of
the primary grades that have such
organs and I'll will require six more to
supply the entire school. 1t was sug-
gested by some that the organs in the
halls and used for marching purposes
be taken for the primary work and
then, put pianos in the halls, but this
matter was not considered.

MANY CHEAP FARMS
Interstate Land Co. Secures Agency for
Great Block OF Canadian
Lands.

Minot, N. d., Jan. 4, 1910.--It is I'M
derstood here that arrangements have
been contaminated whereby che Inter
state Land Co. of this place with va
rious Offices throughout the state and
particularly at Fargo, will during the
next year in addition to handling the
irrigation block of the Canadian Pa
cific Railroad Co. have the agency for
this state of all the railroad lands in
the Saskatchewan Valley and North
ern Alberta This will give the com
pahy an additional two million acres
of choice farm land ranging from eight
dollars per acre upwards. Thousands
of sales in the irrigation block have
been made during the past year, and
one-half the residents Of this state and
the company expect with the addition
al lands under its agency to sell at
least a quarter OF a million acres dur
ing the coming season. 1t is also
rumored that the N. j. Lindgren Co,
general agents for South Dakota, have
made working arrangement whereby
the agents of the Interstate Land Co.
and of the N. ]. Lindgren Co. will work
in harmony and assist each other at
every point, thus giving better services
10 the clients OF both companies. Both
of the aforesaid companies are I'm po-
sition to issue cent a mile rate
transportation to clients who desire to
view their lands, and to sell these lands
on terms of a very small payment
down, the balance being paid off in an
nual installments running from Ave TO
ten years.
The offices of the Interstate Land Co.
are to be enlarged in this city so as
to accommodate the increasing bust
ness for 1910 and several agents are
now actively engaged in completing
the agency force throughout the state
of North Dakota and northern Mime
sofa. Mr.. Halvorson, the president of
the company, states that there Is no
question in his mind but what there
will be more land purchased for i'm
vestment in Alberta this year than
during any previous year by people
residing in the northwestern states.

PROFITABLE DAIRYING

Location of Farm Not So Important

There was q time when one could
i've In location where dairying would
not pay. Az q matter Of fact, We have
seen the time when It was very doubt
full whether or not there ware great
profits to be made In dairy farming
such as were at that time made out
Of the growing Of grains or the feeding
Of other classes Of live stock At
those times milk and butter fat were
commanding less than half the Price
that they are at the present time. and
the matter Of retaining fertility and
the question Of intensive farming had
not occurred to the vast majority OF
agriculturigts. Further than this,
creameries, condensaries and skim
ming stations were very few and scat
tering so that to deliver the product
was q much greater expense than we
find It at the present time. Today
dairy products are selling higher than
at most any other time in the history
Of the world. and the demand seems to
be greater. Creameries have sprung
up, as well as skimming stations aid
condensaries. The demand for milk

CONDUCTOR HAD WRONG IDEA
Thought He Was Going to Save q
Life, but Didn't Get the
Chance.

Here's another one about woman.
She was one of the three or four pas
sengers scattered over a Shaker
Lakes car recently. Also she wore n
dark, spotted veil that gave an air Of
mystery to her appearance.
The conductor. when he looked up
casually from his work Of jotting
down the trip statistics on a heavy
MANILA card, saw her watching him
furtively, stealthily. From him she
would turn her glance toward the 9TH
er passengers to make sure she was
not observed. After he'd returned to
his bookkeeping the conductor. keep
ing tab on her out Of the tail Of his
eye, saw her reach into q little black
satchel and take something out. Then
her supple form became almost rigid
as she again cast searching glance
in his direction to ascertain II there
was danger of him seeing what she
was about to do.
He became really alarmed. Per
haps this woman was wrestling with a
great secret sorrow and was about
to commit suicide? Was 1t a small
dagger or a vial Of poison that she
was taking from her satchel? He
went ahead jotting down figures on
his card, so that she wouldn't know
he had guessed her awful plan, but
he held himself In readiness to spring
upon her in time to prevent her deed
of self-destruction. He had never had
a suicide on his car.
She raised UP the dark veil, FUN
bled at something concealed In her
lap and started to lift her hand to her
face. The conductor rushed forward.
But he checked himself just as he
was about to detain her hand and
went on up as If to speak to the mo-
torman. For all the woman had been
fixing to do was to apply her powder
rag for a moment to the shiny part Of
her nose.-Cleveland Plain Dealer.
