ENGINEER CASS TELLS
HOW He WAS INJURED

Mandan, n. D., July S.-"We were

four or five miles an hour and no.
tiCed a deep sand bar for 300 feet or
more on the track in the west end of the
cut at milepost seven between Cannon
Ball Junction and SOlen,' stated En-
gineer Frank Cass, in speaking of the
accident on the south line about 1870
last Friday morning, which nearly cost
him his life. Il noticed the bar and
stopped the engine, suddenly discover
ing that We were less than a car length
from a little WashOut that had taken
the dirt from under eight or ten ties
and left them swinging in the air. In

TWO PATIENTS
FOR JAMESTOWN

Devils Lake, N. D., July s.
Sheriff Mclean left yesterday for
jamestown with two insane men in
custody, which he will leave at the
hospital for treatment. One case is
particularly sad, the patient, John
Fritz, a man of 81 years Of age, leaves
a wife and six children, the youngest
of whom is S years. They have no
means of support and his condition is
attributed to worry owe financial trOu-
bles. Before coming here three or
four years ago., he was a farmer in
South Dakota, but since then has been
unable, physically, to do any work.
It appears that the family are
destitute. On Friday he began to act
queerly and the family on Sunday,
fearing for their own safety. called in
the sheriff to take him to jail. He be-
came violent in the padded cell, raw
ing, singing and tearing his clothing
and took no rest until last night when
his fit seemed to ave him. He went
very quietly with the sheriff his
morning, offering no resistance. The
scene at the depot where the wife and
little children babe their father good
bye was very pitiable.
The other patient, Lee Walstrom,
has bee min the county Jail for some
time. He was taken from near Crazy
and is not vicious out feeble minded
and rather foolish. He is quite a gem
tie charge and has been allowed the
freedom of the yard. Yesterday he
took charge of the grips and as he
believes he is assisting the sheriff he
carried himself with considerable
pride.

ORGANIZED EFFORT
GOT The RAILROAD

Center Republican,: Just to show
you what a little organized effort and
agitation will do for a locality, we call
your attention to Beach on the main
line of the Northern Pacific.
They wanted a road built to an in
land town some twenty or thirty miles
distant, but the railroad company
could not afford to build it.
The Beach Commercial club went
after an electric line and when it
looked like the electric line was a
certainty, the Northern Pacific Rail-
way Co. suddenly discovered they
badly needed a line in hat exact
locality and Immediately got busy with
the commercial club. The electric
project has been dropped and the
Northern Pacific reports itself ready
to begin building.
Here's a little suggestion to Oliver,
and Morton counties.
