a small rifle in the hands of Mr.. Ohm
stad was accidentally discharged the
bullet striking Mr.. Davies in the arm.
just back of the elbow joint and COM
Ing out In front entered the stomach
little to the left, but owing to the
fact that the force of the bullet had
been greatly reduced by first going
through the arm the bullet was turned
and after travelling across the
stomach lodged between two ribs on
the right side, where IL was found and
removed by Dr.. Thyng the next morn
ing. Mr.. Davies was around the next
day and on Monday drove into town
as though nothing had happened. and
SAID that outside of being a little sore
and stiff his arm bothered him very lit
tie. IL was mighty close call and
ne can be very thankful that the bullet
first passed through his arm. Mr..
Ohnstad was nearly distracted ,,pon
learning that he had accidentally shot
his friend and lost no time in getting
him to Barton where his wounds were
dressed.

on those poorly farmed there is but
little or nothing.
The few showers and cool weather
Of late have been Of material benefit
and especially to durum wheat which
is making a better showing than the
hard varieties. The grain is heading
out rather close to the ground but the
heads are well filed and the kernels
are large and plump.
Last week r. e. Clarke sold four
head Of three year old steers and five
head OF two year old ones at his farm

from the sale Of cattle can be very
conveniently used.

DAKOTANS TASTE
CONSERVATION
HOW THE HoMEsTEADERs ARE
AFFECTED BY WITHDRAW
OF COAL LANDS.

Bismarck, NJ D., Aug. 1.-Some of the
homesteaders out through the western
part of the state are getting a taste
Of practical conservation near at hand
as distinguished from theoretical con-
servation long distance away. The
withdrawal Of the lands in the state in
the Ignite coal region removes an i'm
mense area In Burleigh, Morton, Nc
Lean. Stark, Billings, and the entire
western part of the state, from settle
ment, and holds up thousands Of pat
ents from the government to home
steaders who may be in the district in
cluded in the withdrawal area.
AS a consequence Of this, homestead
ers who want to commute and need to
borrow money on their lands, find it
impossible to get loans until the status
of their land is finally decided. The
same conditions obtain with reference
to those who are about to make five
year proofs, They get title only to the
surface Of their lands, where 1t is in
the coal area, and they may not get
that settled until the United States ge-
illogical survey gets around to examine
and pass upon the land.
1t seems to be the policy Of the gov
eminent now to pass title to the home
steader only to the surface of his land,
making distinct reservation of coal.
This being true, the homesteader who
proved up might at some future time
find his land converted into a coal mine
instead Of a farm, and it is this posi-
bility that makes loans difficult, and,
in way, clouds the title of the set
tier.
All final proofs in this large area
covering about two fifths Of the total
land area of the state, that may come
in hereafter, will have to be dealt with
under the governments withdrawal
order, and held up until the final status
of the land is established.
1t is estimated there are 10000 square
miles Of the state underlaid with Iig-
mite coal, and this against a total of
10000 square miles of territory in the
state The order also established Hg-
mite coal as a valuable fuel product of
the United States and one that comes
under the conservation policy of the
government.

Hotel M'KENzIE
SEVEN STORIES
FIRST sKYsCRAPER IN STATE
WILL BE ERECTED THIS YEAR
AT BISMARCK.

Bismarck, n. D., Aug. 1.-The new
hotel which is being erected by e. G.
Patterson at the corner of Fifth and
Main will be seven stories and will be
put up to that size this summer. 1t
will be named THE Mckenzie" after
Hon. Alexander Mckenzie of this city.
There is nothing in the way of rumor
about the above statement, as Mr.. Pat
terson said to the writer yesterday:
Notwithstanding the crop conditions
have decided to build my hotel seven
stories above the basement instead of
but six, and will name it The McKen-
zie, after Hon. Alexander Mckenzie of
this city,
If the writer is not misinformed this
will be the largest building in the state
and the first real skyscraper that has
been erected in North Dakota. If one
can imagine just what it means to have
building stretching up in the air
three stories higher than the 500 hotel
he can get some idea of the size of the
new building.
The construction is absolutely fire.
PROOF and one can see readily there is
but little lumber going into it. A train
load Of cement will be used and quarries
at Linton have been busy all summer
getting out stone used in the building.
Every equipment about the hotel will
be strictly modern and UP to date.
among them being electric elevators
and telephones in every room. We are
not informed just how many rooms will
be provided, but there are going to be
enough so there will be no lack of hotel
accommodations in Bismarck for some
years to come. Mr.. Patterson has stat
ed that he expects to be ready to move
into The Mckenzie by January 1, 1911.

HAM ATTEMF rs SUICIDE BE-
CAUSE OF LOVE AFFAIR,

Towner, N. D, Aug. flames Kelly
or Upham, a restaurant keeper at that
place, cut his throat with a razor
wednesday evening, his intention be-
ing to end his life. Mr.. Kelly has
been g. resident of Upham since last
January, and his rash deed came as a
great surprise to his many friends. It
Is stated that he was engaged to a
young lady who had been working in
that city, and some trouble arose
Wednesday when the engagement was
broken and the young ladv left for
Chicago. He brooded over the matter,
and when he went to his room in the
evening took the razor and slashed
his throat from ear to ear.
DR.. Carewen of Bantry was imme-
d1ately called, and upon examination
found that, although the neck was
badly cut the jugular vein had not
been severed, which saved the unfor-
tunate man from instant death. At
the present time he is alive, and 1t is
thought he will live, but he is still in
dangerous condition.
