GIRL WILL GET
DECENT BURIAL
Body Of Young Woman Rela-

to Be Inferred

Minot, N. D., Jan. 6.-The body of
Miss Dina Oslenson. a pretty girl of
IL years. who died at st. Joseph's hos
pital, has been lying in the county
morgue more than three weeks, await
ing news from someone sufficiently
interested in the girl to give her de-
cent burial.
from Fargo. has an uncle, Chris Olen-
son, who lives at Fargo. Mr.. Olen-
son was communicated with and posi-
lively refused to have anything to do
with the body of his neice. The girl
had a brother in South Dakota, but
the efforts of the authorities to COM
municate with him were without avail.
This is the first case to be investi-
gated by the United Charities of the
city Of Minot, which was organized
last night. 1t was not ten minutes
after the charities was organized that
plans had been made to give Miss Os-
lenson a decent burial. The county
commissioners have appropriated
enough money to pay the regular flu
neral expenses of .paupers, which
means burial in the potter's field.
But Miss Oslenson will not be
buried in the potter's field. She will!
be laid away in q lot purchased by
the ladies' of the Associated Charities,
Miss Oslenson died at, the hospital
three weeks ago last Tuesday. She
had been keeping house for a, Minot

died when she was very young and
when a mere tot the girl had to get
out In the cold world. and earn a liv-
ing as best she may. 1T was a hard
struggle. There We're SO many who
seemed glad to make the path hard
for her, and so few that seemed in
cilne0 to TIGHTEN her h1IrSan
Hearing that girls got good wages
as domestic servants and ~housekeep-
ers in North Dakota she Went from
her home in South Dakota to Fargo,
and began the struggle anew. Then
h lost her position and went fur
Their west. In Minot the struggle
seemed as hard as ever. Everyone
seemed so busy trying to get ahead
so as to have no tine for a poor orp-
han. Want was followed by disease
that raclked her brain and caused TIL,
color to leave her cheeks.
Lying in the hospital with no moth
er to speak a word of love to her, with
strangers all around, dreaming of the
girlhood days when everything look
ed so bright and pleasant, the fever
stricken girl passed away.
In death as in life, the girl was
forgotten. Her relatives refused to
bury her body, and had it not been
for the women of the newly organ
lied United Charities, Dina would
have been buried in the potter's field
on South hill, and her only requiem
would have been the cold blasts
sweeping over the northwest prairies.

New York. Jan. 6.-Bradstreets to-

encouraging character. At the mo-

while in Industrial pursuits iron and

returns are not uniform in all instance
es, quiet trade being especially mark
ed at the south and some cities else
where also indicate that the severe
weather, instead of developing bust
ness, has actually retarded it. In
the larger lines, wholesale and job
bling for example, trade is marked by
the customary seasonal slowness, n
while some statesmen are again on the
road, it is too early to expect much
in the way of new orders. What few
buyers have come to the dry goods
markets speak hopefully, but the con-
sensus seems to indicate that country
merchants will be chary about plac-
ing orders in quantity for some time.
A c~onservatively cheerful sentiment
prevails in the iron and steel trades.
