MAN FROM N. ..
SAVED FROM SEA
ST. PAUL MAN, RECENTLY STA.
TONED AT BOWMAN, NJ, o.,
TITANIC SURVIVOR.

That another st. Paul man, not here
tofore mentioned in the dispatches, was
a passenger on board the Titanic, and
that he escaped drowning. was brought
to light yesterday when the J. p. Rod
gers Land Co. 1903 Pioneer building,
received a message from the Red Cross
committee in New York, saying that
Oscar Hedman, an employe of the st.
Paul company, had called there for
funds.
Hedman, according to MI. Rodgers
and e. E. Chard OF the Rodgers COM
pany, was returning from Sweden with
a number Of men who were to ~colonize
some land, either in the Kissimee wall
ley, Florida, or in North Dakota. He
was travelling as a steerage passenger.
He had been in Sweden since Octo-
Der.
Mr.. Rodgers sen a message to the
Red Cross committee authorizing them
to draw on him for sufficient money
to pay Hedman's expenses to st. Paul.
Hedman is expected in ST. Paul We'd

ed at Bowman, N. D., recently.

saw BERG WHICH
TITANIC HIT

Devils Lake, N. D., April 23.-Giving
q vivid picture Of the iceberg which
brought doom to hundreds of passen-
gers on the Titanic, Julius Christian
son, a Danish lad of 20 years arrived
in Devils Lake last evening en- route
to Starkweather, where he will make
his future home with Jones Hunter, an
uncle.
Christianson arrived in New York
April IL, on the Danish steamer, Hell
Zig Olav, which was taking exactly the
same course at the Titanic. At 8
o'clock on that fatal Sunday night,
with a dense fog prevailing, the Olav
crept up so close to the very same ice
berg that the Titanic rammed into, as
to cause intense fear among those who
were aware of what had happened.
The steamer running about seven
miles an hour, the thick fog making
navigation faster than that, hazardous.
AS If by warning, to saw the 1900
passengers on the Olav, the fog lifted,
and there, but a little over two ship
lengths ahead doomed up the immense
mountain of ice. The vessel was
brought to a dead standstilI
according to Ch~ristianson, almost
within reaching distance of the terri
BILE monster. The Olav was backed
away far enough to permit turning,
and the end Of the berg was cleared.
Few on board the vessel knew what
had happened, the officers guarding
the information to prevent a panic. It
was less than two hours after that,
that the Titanic steamed over the
same course, at % knots-and was
unable to stop.
After the Olav had cleared the end
of the berg, the fog again dropped
like q blanket. Fearing that there
might be more danger ahead the yes
sci stood still 9 an hour, until the
fog again lifted.
Although there was a wireless OPP
orator on the olav. he worked only
during the day n was not on duty
when the cries for help were being
flashed out by the Titanic. No one
on the Olav knew of the accident
until Monday noon, when a message
vas received from the Carpathia.
Only the fact that the olav was
going very slowly, saved the ship in
the opinion of Christensen.

TASTE, SMELL and
HEARING RESTORED
a SIMPLE, HARMLESS REMEDY
QUICKLY RELIEVES CA
TARRHAL DEAFNESS.

The thousands who suffer the mis-
cries OF catarrh, and claim they have
never found a cure, can gel instant
relief by simply amounting the nostrils
with Ely's Cream Balm.
Unlike internal medicines which up
set the stomach, or strong snuffs which
only ~aggrayate the trouble, this cleans
ing, healing ~antiseptic balm instantly
reaches the seat of the trouble, stops
the nasty discharge, clears the nose.
head and throat, and brings back the
sense OF taste, smell and hearing. More
than this. it strengthens the weakened,
diseased tissues, thus protecting you
against q return Of the trouble.
Nasal catarrh is an inflammation Of
the membrance lining the air passages,
and cannot be reached with mixtures
taken into the stomach or with
snuffs and powders which only cause
additional irritation. Don't waste
time. Get a fifty cent bottle of Ely's
Cream Balm from your druggist, and
after using it for a day you will wish
you had tried it sooner Agents, Fout

TEN COWS PAY EXPENSES
OF FIVE HUNDRED ACRE FARM

Belfield Times: For several years
the main cry coming from the North
Dakota agricultural college is diver
sify," and since having a short talk
with Alex Monty. one Of the many
well known bonanza farmers in the
great Belfield county, we are more
fully convinced than ever, that any
man-who knows anything at all
about farming-can be successful Ii he
win but add a few mich cows to his
farm stock. Hard times may come
and hard times may go, but the farm
err who turns a small number of his
acres into pasture for dairy purposes
becomes acquainted with the fact and
not by reading it in the several period
icals that come to him through the
mails; his purse is well replenished at
the first of every month by the pro-
ceeds from his cows.
Mr.. Monty is by no means a small
farmer-operating in all 500 acres. To
properly farm an acreage of such pro-
portion, considerable help is needed,
and to feed such help substantial
meals must be prepared; capable men
demand good wages and as a rule want
their stipend monthly. All their ex-
pense, beside raising a good sized fam
lily, Mr.. Monty has been able to meet
without any extra exertion, with moth
ing more than the o he received
in return for the butter made from the
milk Of ten cows, besides always hay-
ing a little Cow money"-as he calls
ito his credit in the bank.
Last year was poor for the man who
sowed his last acre to grain, and this
spring found many without SUFFICIENT
cash to purchase the necessities of
life for themselves and families. How
different it Is with men like Mr.. Mon

BOY MANGLED
UNDER A PLOW

Northwood Cleaner: Leonard, the
lS-year-old son of John Grotte, met
with an accident that may prove fatal.
He was seated on a gang pillow, and
about to make the last round before
going home.
He could not reach the foot lever
conveniently to put the plows in the
ground and bent over to perform this
operation by hand, and lost his ball
ance, falling down among the plows,
and n of the points entered his
shoulder. The team. impatient and
headed for home. did not heed his cries,
and he was dragged some rods thus.
His brother who was piowing ahead
Of him, thought that he heard a noise,
and looking back noticed that the boy
was not on the pillow, SO stopped his
team, and FASTENED back to see what
the trouble might be. He got the
boy out in a hurry, and procured a
doctor with all speed.
The sufferer is now at the North
wood hospital, and the gravest doubts
are felt for his recovery. A fearful
wound was made, an ear lacerated and
one side of his face injured. Every
thing possible is being done to save
him, but the chances seem slight.

Dickinson. N. D., April 23.-When
the Dan Russell identity case is re-
opened at Boston, May 5, Sen. Leslie
Simpson of this city will not be pres
emit to conduct it for the Dakota
claimant. Mr.. Simpson was in charge
of the case on the first trial, which

and the rightful heir to his vast es-
tate.
Senator Simpson has been notified
that under a ruling Of the court, the
identity question will be given first
consideration. AS it will require about
two months to present the evidence
before a master, Mr.. Simpson will
not be able to participate, because OF
his candidacy for congress.

of possessing a county office for which
