BY the boys, and all thought..it
good plan, but nothing definite
was done toward this project.

About six weeks or two
months ago there was a coal
famine in Bowbells, and fuel
could not be obtained at any
price. Just now it is just the
other way, and coal haulers are
having a hard time getting rid
of their coal. During the famine
the farmers were. unable to do
any other work and all started to
haul their winters supply of
fuel. Onaccount of many thresh-
ing rigs running the mine own
ers were unable to get enough
help to supply all teams coming
after coal. During that time
most of the farmers hauled their
winters supply of fuel, and are
not hauling now. No threshing
rigs are now running an d the
mine owners are able to get all
the help they need, and at the
same time almost every person
having a team is hauling coal to
Bowbells with the result tnat
everybody is we'll stocked up and
it is not easy to dispose of any
that is hauled in now. The
farmers residing in the vicinity
of the mines all lost their crops
last fall and hence to make a
few dollars are doing as much
hauling as possible to make a
few extra dollars. Yes, Bowbells
is we'll supplied with fuel now.
Bert Romine arrived in Bow
bells Friday and spent the after
noon and night at the home of
his brother, John, returning to
Portal the following day on the
flyer, where he went to help a
neighbor haul out a feed mill to,
their home near Slayer, Sask.
Ice on. the reservoir now is
thicker than, it has been for
many years past and those haul
ing it are consequently happy.

CHICKENS ARE NUN !. |.
EROus NORTH: j ! Of D CITY. Il. !
Farmers State That Recent
Cold Weather Brought !,
Them From Canada

Farmers residing in the north
end Of Burke county tell The
Tribune that prairie chickens for
several miles south Of the Cana
dian line are more numerous this
winter than they have ever seen
them before. Prior to the last
cold spell they were as scarce as
has been the case in the past,
but the cold weather seems to
have brought them down from
Canada. l >,...>,..~~sa.. :: =
During last fall chickens, we
are told, were as numerous as
grasshoppers in Canada across
from Burke county, but as a
Canadian law prohibits hunting
in fields Of either standing or
shocked grain, and as most of
the grain was in this condition
during the open season, only a
few Of the birds were shot. !:
When this cold weather came
on the chickens naturally were
up against it for feed and shell
ter and by instinct went south in
to this county. It is hoped they
will conclude to stay here and
hatch next spring, which, if they
do, will furnish local sportsmen
with good hunting next fall. :
The Bowbells tribune. [volume] (Bowbells, Ward Co., N.D.) 1899-1969, 1912-01-26

Mrs. Dan White received a let-:
ter Tuesday stating that five ri
members. her nephew's family r
residing at Motley, Minn., were
burned to death in a confagration
that completely destroyed his
residence Saturday night. Her
nephew himself received burns
on his hands which will probably
require their amputation, and
his wife and but one child got
out of the building unharmed.
The fire started some time in the
night and before Mrs. Whites
nephew awoke the whole build
ing was in flames. He together
with his wife and young child ;
slept downstairs while the other
five members of the family slept !:
in the, upper story. The fire had
gained to much headway before
twas discovered to save anyone
in the upper story, and they all
perished. The unfortunate man
is also cousin of Mrs. Frank ,
Osborne of this city. 49,
The. Tribune notes that the
many friends of Gus Mettler of
this city are trying to get him to
become candidate for sheriff Of:
Burke county at the coming
primaries in June, and while Gus )
himself does not say that he,
will be a candidate it is almost a
settled fact that he will make the
run, and will make an announce
ment to that effect within a
couple of weeks. In buying
cattle Gus has travelled through
all parts of the county during his
residence here and there is hard
ly a voter that doesn't know
him. This will be in his favor,
as will also be his pleasant ways,
business ability and popularity.
Gus should stand as good q show
as any Of them if he became q
candidate, and would, if elected,
make q good officer. nj

Citizens Lumber Co. Of Ken
mare, for whom Theo. Kahellek

received at the hands of Blenk-
.ner. E. r. Sinkler of Minot ap-
peared for Rnzen and Judge L.
j. Palda, Jr., of Minot and Geo.
H. .Gjertsen Of this city for
Blenkner. The jury was out
something'like eight hours and
brought in a verdict of a judg-5
ment against Blenkner to the a.
mount $3.50 and costs. I'm
mediately after the verdict was
brought in the attorneys for the
defendant moved for a stay of
Judgment of so days to give their

granted by the court.
Rozen had two other cases
