WAS otto DAHL
ON THE TITANIC
FEARED THAT HkZELToN MAN
LOST HIS LIFE IN THE GREAT
DISASTER.

Hazelton, N, d, April 29.-was Otto
Dahl, brother of Matt Dahl of Hazel
ton, and a well known parsonage OF
this vicinity one of the passengers
who were lost on the i'll fated Titanic?
This is the question that Is foremost
In the minds of Matthias and the many
friends OF Otto Dahl.
He has been residing at Solfjalsjoen.
Hageland, Norway, since leaving here
two years ago, and wrote relatives
here that he RAJ to sail for the Unit
ed States about April 10; that he was
coming on a large new boat Of the
White Star line, which leads relatives
and friends here to believe that he
meant the Titanic.
He had recently been married in the
old country and he and his wife were
to emigrate to the Dakotas to make
their future residence.
The only complete list of passengers
on the boat went down with her and
It Is probable that the whole list Of
those perished will never be Known.
but had Mr.. and Mrs. Dahl been pas
sengers on the Titanic and the fact
that all women and children were sup
posed to have been saved, it is posi-
BILE that when the list OF rescued Is
published the name of Mrs. Otto Dahl
would appear among the survivors.
Friends and relatives on both sides
Of the Atlantic are anxiously awaiting
the news and pray that the young
couple took some other boat to make
the trip.

TO wed
OF 80 YEARS Ago

Sheldon Progress: The elimination
of an interesting man which start
ed in Stockholm, Sweden, over thirty
years ago will occur within a few
days when Jack West and Miss Will
helmina Larson, who in their childhood
days were playmates and ~sweethearts
in the old country. will be united in
marriage.
Over thirty years ago Jack, who is
a well knbwn character in Sheldon,
came to America from Sweden to
seek his fortune-to build a home for
his sweetheart whom he had left be-
hind. He met with misfortune and
hardship, but for years he INCREASINGLY
toiled and labored that he might be
able to bring to America the playmate
Of his boyhood days-and through all
the years he remained faithful to her.
And back in the old country patiently
waiting for him through the long lone
some days was his sweetheart. She
too remained faithful, hoping that the
time would come when he would be
able to bring her to a home in the
new country.
Last fall Jack was in a position to
realize the ambition of his life, and
he returned to Sweden for the osten-
sible purpose of visiting his old home,
but before going he confded to a few
If his itimate friends that he ex-
pected to return a benedict. He
found his former sweetheart still wait
ing for him and they wished to be
married at once, but the laws Of
Sweden required that he should have
a certificate from this country show
ing that he had not married her, and
Jack not knowing where to apply for
one. they decided to wait and get mar
ried here. After spending a few
months in Sweden renewing their
courtship Of former days, they started
for America, reaching Sheldon Tues
day morning. They intended coming
on the ill-fated Titanic but for some
trivial reason decided not to. 1t was
feared by their Sheldon friends that
they had been among it's passengers
and considerable anxiety was felt re-
gording their fate. which was not en-
tirely allayed until they arrived in
Sheldon Tuesday morning.
AS soon as they are married the
happy couple will start housekeeping
here, having rented the Jas. K. Banks
house back OF the First National bank.
For the past four or FIVE years Jack
has been spending his in
Sheldon, occupying his time in doing
odd jobs, and by his f~aithfulness and
thorough work has become almost a
necessity around many Sheldon homes.

TITANIC NAY
HAVE CLAIMED
SHELDON MAN

sheldon Progress: Did James Allen
take passage from Ireland on the ILL.,
fated Titanic, and go down with her
to a watery grave? There is a posi-
bility that he did and the matter is
being eagerly discussed by his Sheldon
friends.
Jim left Sheldon last fall to visit his
aged mother in Ireland. At that time
he stated that he intended to return
some time in April and letters receiV-
ed indicate that he expected to
this country on his return trip ABOUT
April Is. This would indicate that ne
would leave the old country at the
same time the Titanic did, and there Is
a possibility that he took passage on
this boat.
Nothing has been heard from him
since the Titanic disaster and unfess
news of him is received soon an lnVes-
-~tigation will be started to ascertain
IL he was aboard the sunken steamship.
If he was, there is little doubt but
what he was drowned as his name
does not appear among the puoiisheo
list of those who were rescued.
Mr.. Alien has been a resident OF
Sheldon for about seven years, haV-
ing been engaged as cement sidewalk
builder and contractor. He has no
relatives of any description in n
vicinity. but considerable anxiety re-
gardins his fate is felt by his friends.

They were not told of the great
danger until just before the Titanic
sank when they were placed In one OF

did not get 30 far away that they did
not feel the pull Of the water when
the Titanic went down. Their boat
was filed to capacity, yet they picked

DEAD BODY Of
BABY found
BOYS SEARCHING FOR BOTTLES
FOUND BODY AND NoTI-
FLED THE POLICE.

Grand Forks, N. D., April 2S.-Lying
partly buried in mud. head twisted al
most around, and badly cut and CASH
ed, the body of an infant was found
alongside OF the river in the western
end Of Central park.
Three boys, who were searching
along the river for empty bottles
found the body OF the infant and inn
mediately notified Park Policeman
John Dencker, who turned the s
over to the police.
The child had evidently been thrown
into the river and had been washed
up onto the shore. The head was
twisted around, but whether it had
been done before the child had been
gotten rid of by an unnatural mother
or whether the action Of the water
and the fact that the body may have
hit distractions. did 1t, is a matter
that is yet to be solved.
The child was evidently about a
week or ten days old and was well
formed and developed, and weighs
about twelve pounds.
The body was taken in charge by
Deputy Sheriff Fisher and is being
held pending the arrival Of Coroner
H~etherington.
Just when the child was thrown in
to the river, or how long it had been
in the water or lying on the river

state of preservation, it is not thought

last fall and was thought to be high
enough to be out Of reach OF the high
water, but it seems the bank was
washed from beneath 1t and the boat
disappeared.
When found the ferry was bottom
side UP and washed high n dry 200
yards from water, on Douglas island
three miles north OF Fort Yates. The
engine was missing and the SUPPOSE
ton is that when the bank gave away
beneath the boat the vessel turned
over and the engine being SO heavy
broke loose and sank. 1t is probable
that by dragging the river in the
vicinity OF Gwyther the engine can be
made by Captain suverly to have the
boat floated and repaired.
