and fell in love at once. As the young
man had no royal blood the alliance
was secuted, whereupon the independ-
ent princess announced 1t would be
the marquis or no husband at all. All
that such union lacks is the royal
permission, for the Duke and Duchess
Of Connaught are not averse to 1t.
The last member of the Connaught
family, who will not figure in the fam
lly's Canadian experience, is Princess
Margaret, the eldest daughter, who is
now the crown princess of Sweden.

Boy Leaps From Train

Watching his opportunity, a
17-year-old boy Sunday after
noon rose in his seat on the
Northern Pacific train that was
bearing him to Glendive from
Oregon, where he was arrested
on the charge Of horse stealing,
and as the slowly moving train
pulled up the grade at Home
stake, jumped out of the window
of the coach and ran into the
brush beside the road, while
Sheriff Wynn Of Dawson county
sought to stop the train. The
train did not stop until Home
stake was reached, and the
search was useless, as the nervy
fugitive had made good his
escape. Up to a late hour Sun
day night he had not been re-
captured. Anaconda Standard.

ThreshingOnIn
Golden Valley
Grain is of Good
Quality and a Fair
Yield is Reported

Threshing is now on in full
blast. Smoke from the thresh-
ing engines may be seen
in every direction throughout the
Golden Valley. Though the
yield is not heavy it is entirely
up to the expectations of the
farmers, and is also Of an excel
lent quality.
While in some localities the
yield Of wheat has been report
ed as low as twelve bushels
per acre, the larger percent
age will average around sixteen
bushels.
On the Moulton farm, two
miles east Of Wibaux. we learn
that 3, 600 bushels of wheat were
threshed from 500 acres an av-
erage yield Of sixteen bushels
per acre and comparing this
crop with the rest Of the valley a
sixteen bushel yield may be TAX
en- as a conservative estimate on
the averege wheat crop.
Up to the present date very
little flax has been threshed
though this crop is also meeting
with expectations, and in all
probability will average about
eight or nine bushels per acre
or from $18 to $40 per acre crop
value.
With the excellent prices which
the fall market warrents for all
kinds of small grains the farm
ers Of the Golden Valley are Ger
tain to enjoy another prosperous
year.

"Cowboys' Are
Not So Easy
Beach Gunmen Met
"Real" Cowboys on
Coming to Wibaux

Having defeated an ordinary
pickup team in shooting tourn-
ament at that place a few weeks
ago--which they mistaken for a
bunch Of real" cow-punchers"
the Beach gun men evidently be-
came imbued with the idea that
they were capable of putting
one over" on Wibaux most any
time they took the notion, but
the fact is that not one cowboy
happened to be in the Wibaux
team that went to Beach on the
above date, out of the seven men
who displayed their skill here on
last Monday evening, when the
Beach gun men came up, there
happened to be three real"
COW punchers--and the result
was different.
The tournament was pulled off
at Mr.. Frost's gallery, and con-
sidering the cold weather on that
evening, we must give it to the
boys--they all did good work.
Out of five targets the local men
captured the highest score on
three, as shown in the following
box score.

UP To City
Aldermen
Whether or not We
Shall Have Neces-
sary Cross-walks

Winter is coming on and with
it the attendant inconvenience
of snow, slect, rain and slush on
our streets. AS a result Of these
elements, the citizens of Wibaux,
in years gone by, have been COM
PEELED to trudge and slop through
mud, slush and water on our
streets, which sometimes reach
ed a depth Of six inches and
more.
Without a doubt we are bless
ed with body Of city Aldermen,
who are up and doing at
all times where the interests and
welfare of the city are concern
ed. The personnel of our Aid
ermanic Council, we believe, is
composed Of men who are public
spirited and far seeing enough
to realize the immediate and i'm
perative need Of suitable, sub
stantial, street crossings, especi-
ally on our main street. Further
more, we are Of the opinion that
they will care for this matter in
due season.
School time is about here, the
children will soon be travelling
our streets again on their way to
school. They also, must be con-
sidered, for there can be no
question but what the school
children use ou- .tfeets more
than any other set of individuals
in the town.
Our Aldermen have already
done much to improve and ad-
vance evil conditions in Wibaux;
the water holes on our main
street have been filled; the road
betu cen the creek and elevators,
graded and repaired, and soon
we will enjoy the convenience of
many new street lights on both
sides of the railroad, in locations
in which they have long been
necessary.
With a yearly revenue of
$352O.0O derived from the is
suance Of saloon licenses in Wi
baux, in addition to smaller re-
venues, the street crossing prob
blem should be easily solved by
our Aldermen, and we are con-
fident that they will consider
this matter at their September
session. With the excellent i'm
provements and advancements
already under way, we proclaim.
| All hail the Council, let the
good work go on, we'll have
street crossings before winter. "
