Death MARK RECORD
FOR HUNTING SEASON

Grand Forks. Sept. 29.-An average
of a death a day was established by
North Dakota sportsmen in the first
week of the open season for small game
such as ducks and prairie chickens, ac-
cording to statistics complied at Grand
Forks, the death list being the greatest
in the history of hunting in the state.
In addition to the death rate, in
juries totaling about the same number
have occurred and as result of the
series of accidents the state board OF
control Of game and fish has commenced
a campaign of educatio designed tc
bring about che more careful handling OF
firearms in the field.
Of the many accidents reported, only
two have occurred in which the victims
have been shot down by fellow hunters
One of these men was fatally shot,
while the other will live.
Deaths by the accidental discharge OF
shotguns in runaways lead, over half OF
them occurring in this manner. Drown.
ing while hunting ducks form another
feature of the risks taken by sportsmen

Canadian LiOeS, Mp. and Great
Northern Join in Move
Of Development

Grand Forks. n. D., Sept. 29.--lIail-
road activities in the Northwest hav,
taken on new form within the past few
days, the survey OF the Midland Cont
mental railroad from Wimbledon, N. b.,
to Grand Forks. and the reported pur-
chase Of the Great Northern line from
Red Lake Falls to Warroad being the
principal recent developments.
Both activities arc incident to Can
adam traffic, and have particular ref
erence to the Winnipeg business, the
move by the Northern Pacific being for
the purpose of establishing shorter
route between the Twin Cities and VIM
nipeg while the Midland Continental
survey is said to be under way for the
purpose Of establishing Il connection with
the 500 line. north or east Of Grand
Forks, giving q direct correction with
Winnipeg
The report that the Northern Pacific
has purchased the Great Northern line
is not given general crcdence by rail Off
Gals in this country, although at Red
Lake Falls and other points more direct
ly affected it is asserted that the deal
has been made.
Under the plan Of operation proposed.
the Red Lake Falls line would become u
through line from the Twin Cities to
Winnipeg, service being established over
one of the Canadian roads from VAR
road, MINI. This would shorten the route
Of the Northern PnciH considerably, as
that company now has the most Western
route of any of the railroads operating
between the Manitoba metropolis and
the Twin Cities.
Recently the Northern Pacific con-
templated the construction Of a lire from
East Grand Forks, Mimi. to Drayton.
N. D. and a survey of that rout" was
made, but nothing more ever came ct it.
The Midland Continental road Siluat-
ton has taken on definite form with the
making of the survey from Wimbledon
to Aneta. Northwood and Grand Forks
1t Is asserted that the Midland has form
ed an operating agreement with the 500
railroad, and that a connection with the
500 Is soon to be made either on the
Wheat line of the 500, or on the main
Canadian line, east of here.
Midland rails are now laid from Ed
geley N. D. to Wimbledon, n D.. and
trains are being operated over that ter-i
ritory.
