TWO KILLED
IN n. ?. WRECK
TWELVE CARS OF STOCK KILLED
WHEN HEAVY TRAIN WENT
INTO THE DITCH.

Jamestown, n: D. Sept. 1.-Two
mon were killed, third fatally in.
jured and twelve cars of stock jamn,cd
into fearful heap Of mangled and
bleeding ruins, when N. 2. train No.
-.2S, east bound, went into the ditch
few miles west Of here at miduiy;.t
last night.
The wreck was one Of the worst
that ever occurred on this division ct
the N. p. Nineteen cars left the rails
and were piled into a heap of ruins
within a space Of about 200 feet. OF
these twelve were filed with stock.
The believing and groaning OF the
wounded stock mingled with piercing
cries for help coming from two doomed
men, trapped beneath the great pile
o fruins turned the night into horror.
The cries Of the men continued for
hours, but despite the frantic efforts of
tie train crew to get at them, they
could not be reached owing to the fear
full mass of wreckage. and their cries
gradually died down and finally ceased
forever. The bodies were recovered to,
day but they are strangers and it is
believed they were hoboes stealing a
ride. The man who Was injured has
not been able to tell who he is and
he will not recover.
All traffic on the N. p. has been held
up since the wreck but two wreckiRg
crews were put at work and it is be
lieved that the track will be clear fol-
Eains at four O'Clock this afternoon.

cas fully equipped except top.
Some Of the roads encountered were
very bad and it is hoped that q big
improvement will be effected in this
respect. The roads in Oass, Trail and
Grand Forks were the best. Nelson
and Ramsey counties cap stand a
wonderful lot of improvement in this
respect
Benson county was fair, McHenry
and Ward were not SO good.
The Cadillac people are thorough
ly satisfied with the run and have no
complaints to make over anything,
knowing that the run has completely
and finally proved their claims for
Cadillac endurance and staunchness.

CADILLAC CAR
MADE GOOD RUN
Continued from page y

NSVAGAAOC A$S&A Po6V -
Thinking he had room to pass, the
driver who covered the lap from Ninot
to Jamestown ditched the car, causing
enough damage so that it was not pos.
sible to finish the run, and the last 25
per cent was abandoned.
The Horton Motor company is not
disposed to blame anyone for this mis-
hap realizing that it was simply az err
ror Of Judgment. 1t was the unani-
nous verdict OF all in the car at the
time, that with very conservative run
ming nothing could have prevented the
arrival at Jamestown by $3.50 p. m.
And very conservative schedule (the
one planned) Of three hours in to Far
90 would have landed the car in Fargo
at $3.50 p. NJ, making q total time OF
II IL hours for Cpl miles. The I'M
finished part Of the course being esti-
mated at running time of from to
8 hours slower than time actually made
on the IS per cent covered.
It was not the purpose to run
speed contest and the wonderful time
made was merely an incident in the
run from Fargo to Iinot. In getting
out Of Fargo the party was stopped
by an overzealous policeman minutes
but on being convinced that the party
mf fasffi (ihgettingiecngno en- enc
was within the speed limit, the car was
allowed to proceed. Coming into Devils
Lake speed was reduced more than
half.
The wonderful time to Minot which
was 8 hours and 4 minutes total
elapsed time including all stops was
made simply, by consistent steady run
ming at speed which is perfectly
safe in q car like the Cadillac.
The car left Minot in splendid shape
and nothing but an unfortunate in
cident prevented the complete finish
of the run Of 6o1 miles to show Cadil-
lac endurance and ability to withstand
exttaordinafy Toad cdnditoht.
No trouble Of any kind was expert
enced except that caused at Minot, at
the turning point, by dirt in the gaso-
line pipe and carburetor resulting in
damaged airvalve, which was quick
y fe1sasA
The distance from Fargo to Ninot
is 325 miles by road. The marvellous
time was not due to wild bursts Of
speed, because at no time was an
nusafe rate Of speed INDUCED in-but
purely to the ability Of the Cadillac
TO maintain relatively fast gain con-
tinuously over any and all kinds OF
roads.

In the death of Dr.. 2. H. Belyea,
which recently occurred at his home
near Plentywood, Mont. a familiar fig-
ure, who has been identified with this
part Of the state for the past thirty
years, has been removed, and many a
silent tear will be shed by old timers
Of this part Of the state who knew
the doctor. In the early days he To-
Gated at Minot. before there was real
ly any Minot, and heAwas identified
with the upbuildinq Of that city, and
was most familiar figure in the poll
teal and social life Of Ward county.
At one time he was state senator from
that ceanty, and as he was man Of
much ability he had much to do. with
making many Of the laws which are
now on our statute books. From Minot
he moved to Devils Lake, where he
also practiced medicine for years, but
later from here he went to Williston
where he continued the practice of his
procession until some time ago ne
moved to a claim near Plentywood,
Mont, where he passed away. To
know DR.. Belyea was to like him. He
had his faults, but his many good
qualities more than Offset any Of his
shortcomings. He was kind hearted
and sympathetic, and whenever he was
called to administer to the sick or dy-
ing he never found the road too long
or the weather too severe. but answer
ed the call and put forth his best ef-
forts. He was generous to fault, and
he never refused to do his best to re-
lieve the sick and distressed, whether
there was any chance Of getting his
nav or not.
