Fatal Bear Hunt.

tragic event, which Saddened
the whole community, was the ac-
cidental shooting and death of Fred
erick Young. the II year old son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Jerome Young of this
city, while on bear hunt with his
father Saturday night. The young
man and his father went out to the
Ellsworth place, two miles beyond
the Monterey House, that evening
to get a bear, as these animals have
been reported unusually numerous
in that locality this fall. Arriving
at the designated spot each climbed
/ into a tree alongside the trail with
the hope that bear would pass
along that way. The trees on
which they were watching were
some distance apart and after some
little time had elapsed Fred clam
bered down to join his father for
the purpose of going home, and ap-
preaching the tree in which his
father was staying whistled re-
peatedly to warn him of his ap-
proach and as a signal that they
would start home. The details of
the accidental shooting will be
found in the statement by Mr..
Young printed below and which
was given to DR.. F. M. Carter:
"We were watching for the bear
about three quarters of a mile from
the Ellsworth place about 10 o'clock

and kissed him, saying, oh, my

State Treasurer Gunder Olson has
the right idea about the State Capital
grounds. He wants them beautified.
We are with him. They are something

alton from landscape point of view.
Mr.. Olson said in an interview with

ing the state justice to maintain this
unimproved ground when a little effort
exerted in the right direction would do
SO much in impressing visitors that
North Dakota is something more than
an unbroken prairie, We have the
grounds and its natural adaptability
could not be improved upon. All we
need is to improve the opportunities
which are ours" ,.

NEW R. R. Line
IS SOON COMING
ANOTHER RAILWAY FOR NORTH
DAKOTA.

Grand Forks, Aug. 1O.-It now seems
probable that North Dakota will see
extensive railway building within the
next few months, and this by one of
the railway systems not now extensive
ly represented in this state. The high
est officials of the Chicago, Milwaukee
and st. Paul Railway have visited this
state recently and their purpose is said
to have been to locate line through
the eastern part of the state to Winni-
peg. This new line will extend from
Fargo north through Grand Forks to
the big Canadian city. Plans are al
ready perfected for the re1aying of
the entire Manitoba division of the
Northern Pacific with ninety pound
steel and otherwise improving it for
the increased trade that the railways
believe will follow the passing of the
Reciprocity Treaty.
